The road from Berlin to Somerset was !
mighty long Friday night for the "Ma
roons" and "rooteri" w bo bad journeyed
acnwis the county earlier in the day with
the avowed intention of wrestling a sec
ond victory from Berlin. Iu fact the
"Maroons'" were so confident of their
ability to "bf Eerlin a serond time
and bad proclaimed their purpose so fre
quently and loudly iu advance thai they
had some misgivings as to bow they
woold be received after their crashing
defeat, and, therefore, slunk into town
under tbe cover of night. A more thor
oughly dejected and humiliated ball
teaun would be hard to find.
The credit for winning the game for
Berlin must be accorded to "Red
Davis, wbose work in the box was the
fastest tbe "Maroons" ever run op
against. Davis was ou bis own "claim"
ami anxious to retrieve whatever pres
tege he had lat in the former game with
Somerset, and he went about hia work
with a grim determination that struck
terror to the hearts of his adversaries.
As the game proceeded Davis strength
and cunning seemed to grow and at times
he buried the ball with the momentum
of a runaway engine on a down grade,
w ith the exception that he kept perfect
control of bis machinery. Twice, thrice,
four times be caught the "Maroons"
w ith two slow "drop balls, followed by
a swift inshoot. The faces of the Maroon'
batters when they were called out on
strikes would have been a profitable
study for a comic valentine printer.
Davis' work with the stick, too, was
phenominaL At one Juncture of the
gauia with three men on bases he pound
ed out a home ran, bringing in four
scores, and the way his legs flew over the
ground would have excited the admira
tion of a starving grasshopper. The
locg and the short of it is that "Red''
Davi plays ball, g'xsd ball, winniug ball,
and is a dangerous man f.r amateur
players to run agai us. He was admira
bly supported by Hali, Woods, Snyder,
Land is and others.
Swindell lacked steam and apparently
only used one curve, w hich was readily
recognized by the Berliner, none of
whom experienced any difficulty in lo
cating tbe bali and pounding it for safe
bits. Swindell is a very pretty and
graceful player, but unless he shows
marked improvement be can't be placed
in the same class with Davis. Crawford
played his usual fine game, as did I'M
and Say lor, the latter having a three-bag
bit to bis credit. Most of the errors
charged to the "Maroon were Inexcus
able, and Haws' failure to connect with
the 1-all was most surprising.
I'mpire ilanter was very satisfactory
to tbe spectators and to the winning
team, and in all fairness it must be said
that the objections filed by tbe "Ma
r.ioits" against his decisions were un
founded. It was the cleanest piece of
umpiring ever oeen in tha county.

Word reached here Monday of tbe
death of Roliert Good, a thirteen-year-old
boy, recently iudeutured by the Chd
drens Aid Society of Somerset county to
a farmer living near Grantsville, ML
From the meagre particulars at band it
appears that the lad an 1 a companion of
afvct tbe same ace found a revolver in a
liireau drawer on Sunday afternoon, and
while playing with the weapon, which
they suppjsed to be uuloaded. it was ac
cidentally discharged, the ball entering
young Good's body above his left hip
and coming out near the pit of his stom
ach. The wounded lad lingered until
11:') o'clock Monday morning when be
died, notwithstanding the fact that be
bad tbe attention of a skillful physician.
Tbe dead by formerly lived with the

The question as to w bet her tbe naming
of the baby llong, as a matter of right,
to the baby's 'ather or to the baby's
mother is raised iu a quee r lawsuit ori
ginating in Eastkill, ia tbe heart of tbe
Cakiil Mountains. Toe plaintiff is Ole
Halverson, a Swede, who cultivate a
small farm on the mountainside. lie
has sued for damages the Rev. J. G. Retu-
erton, a German Lutheran minister of
the same place, and the pleadings set
forth the following state of facta: Mr.
and Mrs. Halverson have a aoo of tender
years. Tbe former deaired that the boy
should 1 called War, after the present
monarch of Mr. Ha!veraoas fatherland.
Mrs. Halverson dislikes the name of Os
car, and was determined that the Laby
should not l burdened therewith. Mr.
and Mrs. Halverson took the baby to tbe
clergyman lo lie christened. Mr. Hal
verson requested the minister lo name
the child tfauar, but Mrs. Halverson had
already talked the reverend gentleman
over, and to Mr. Halverson' surprise
and indignation the boy was christened
not Oscar, but something else, whereby
Mr. Halverson sutTered serious disap
pointment, loss of authority iu hi house
hold, laceration of feelings, etc, for which
be prays damages. The clergyman's de
fense is that be christened the child in ac
cordance with the wishes of its mother,
whose right in tbe premises be nonaidr
ed paramount. The case brings up a
novel question in jurisprudence, tbe de
cision of which wild be regarded with in

MERCANTILE TAX LAW.
The new Mercantile Tax bill is in the
nature of an equalization of a former in
equitable law. Tbe small merchants in
the cities hve been complaining for years
that the mercantile tax was not imposed
in a way that was fair to them. They
claimed that the big dealer was not paying
his fair proportion of tbe tax. The first
law of this character was passed in s4L
It made fourteen cla-we, the smallest of
which was for a business of flo't, and the
largest for a business of ','. In
ls.i0 it was extended so as to take in a
business of fti,rtX
In the last twenty year tbe volume of
business has increased so and the cortsoli-
datioc of interests have become so preva
lent that 9ore of establishments in the
state have beeu doing a business not ouly
off.VH,") but of ln.ii.') and some
over tbiit. Tbe new law is intended to
covev t bis class. IpU. the sum of fVTi.iaO
there ia no deference from tbe rate paid at
the present time. The changes or increas
es on toosc doing more than that amount
of business. The grades are equitable
and as they go higher tbe rate is made
slightly lower in proportion- It is a uni
form grade, and in the end is likely to
comuieud iuelf to those who are called
upon to pay the tax. One thing is certain.
it is in the interest of the smaller deal
era.

to make the ruling by th-se two consid

"First Our eumpulsory education law

foreigners over native bom.

theStU.
Ieputy V.ti. Marshal Frank J. Camp
bell, of Cotinellsville, Sat unlay afternoon
arrested Louis and David Ansel), of Fay
ette county, near the Somerset oouuty
line, on a charge of manufacturing moon-i-bine
w lit key. The prisnners werv tak
en to Vuiontowu aud placed in jail, peud-
ing a hearing before a V. H. Commis
sioner.
The home of the Ansells is In a wild
and secluded spot, out of the way of
travel. They bad built their still on the
hillside, some distance from their home,
at a point where it was weld hidden and
where they could see tbe approach of
stranger easily. Mr. Campbell had pre
viously located tbe still by the smoke
from it and be knew the difficulty there
would be in reaching it. He got tbe lay
of tbe land, aud when he led bis posse to
tbe mountains on Saturday be bad his
plans well in hand.
Knowing that one of the Ansel's would
be on the lookout, be led his men around
tbe mountain and made the ascent from
the side where they would be safe from
tbe observation of tbe moonshiners. They
crept cautiously along the hill guided by
the smoke from the still, and succeeded
ia reaching it before they were discov
ered. They found Louis Ansell just in the
act of pouring a bucketful of yeast into
tbe still, and to avoid trouble they got
their gun in line with him and ordered
hiur to surrender, which he did
without a question. A couple of
the men with Mr. Campbell went down
the hillside a short distance and they
found David Ansell, on watch, they say.
Louis deelared that he alone bad any
interest in the still. He taid hi brother
was not on watch and had had nothing
whatever lo do with the running of the
still.
It is said tbit the Ansel! were caught
through their own indiscretion in selling
the stuff.
Ordinarily ouly a triod and trusted man
could buy whisky from the mountaineer
distillers, and then only after he bad
gone through secret forms sufficient t?
have admitted bim to fellowship iu any
lodge. But tbe moonshiners were hav
ing so little trouble that tbey tuad the
conditions of purchase much easier, and
any person with an acquaintance in the
mountain did not need to suffer from
cramps.
It is said that the government officers
have information of other stills, and ex
pect to raid them soon. The arrest of tbe
Ansell will likely spread some alarm in
the mountains, and the moonshiners w ill
no doulit draw tbe lines tighter to avoid
outside iiiterfereoca.

Mr. Coleuiau will, which was not
found until siMiie time after his deaib,
provide.! that his body should be cre
mated and his ashes interred in the cem-
etry at Berlin. This reqaest couldnot lie
co.nplied with, owing to the fact of the
body having been buried for so long a
peri si before tbe wiil was brought to
light, but the California or Kirt has decreed
that the bJy shall be removed to Berlin
for burial at a future date, and has direct
ed the administrator to withhold a suffi

State Senator Mitchell, of Jefferson
county, w bo is the chairman of tbe Sen
ate Appropriations Committee b a merch
ant, and for that reason is much interest
ed in tbe discussion relative to tbe new
mercantile tax law. He has been engag
ed in tbe mercantile businew for more
than a acor f years and i therefore
familiar with the subject in all of its de
tails, w hen asked for an opinion upoa
the new rutrcaiitiie tax law he replied :
"la try r, inioa the provision of th3
law are j-t and ex,uitat-le. F.very
thoughtful tucr- bant ha beea iinptemrd
with tbe very great inequalitiea of the
old law. For several years the small
storekeeper have been agitating the
question and is different parts of toe
Slate they are forming tbe the Anti-Ie-
p art meet Store Association for the pur
pose of equalizing tbe burdens of taxa
tion so that the large merchant will have
to pay tax in proportion to tbe business
he transact a. ruder tbe present law a
merchant who does a business amoont-
i ng V f I.Ouu year pay- a mercantile tax
of 7. If the larger merv jant were taxed
at same rale on the amount of bus:
news transacted, a flO.nuO business would
pay TO; 1"0,K fro I bOuo.O"). ",
and f lu.oon.ooy, ro,uoo annually. Under
tbe present law. however, the merchant
who does a business of f 10,0m,X) annual
ly only pays f 1,000 in tax. This is so un
fair that the mere statement of it carries
with it a condemnation of tbe old law,
So far as I bare been able to ascertain
the sentiment of the merchants generally
the new law is favored when iu provis
ions are understood.
"The new law will affect but a very
small proportion of the merchants in the
State. For instance, in tl:e city of Phil
adelphia alone there were 21,2X mer
chants who paid a mercantile tax in
l.-cai. There is no difference iu the rate
imposed under the new and old law up to
,(. In the city of Philadelphia 30,
0M dealers do a business, as reported to
the Auditor General, of less than f"i0.t
a year. Nine hundred and seventy-nine
do a business amounting to more than
$."0,0(0 a year. In other words, the new
law will not affect J0.5u6 dealers in the
city of Philadelphia. Tbe rate will be in
creased on the remaining 979 dealers.
But the increase is in the line of exact
justice and equality. It requires the large
dealer to pay a tax somewhat in propor
tion to the volume of busioesa tranaacted.
The more the new law is disgusted and
understood tbe more fkror wilt it have in
the eyes of tbe people.'
Crop ia Boaoract Caty.
Mr. Jacob I. Kaufman, writing from
Daridsvilleou July 3d, thus intelligently
epitomizes the condition of crops in bis
neinhborhrasi and ia Somerset county :
"I have been making hay, or helping
to tuake bay, for over fifty years, and tbe
one jost pasned has been the bt week,
for tbe first week in haymaking, lliat I
have ever known. We commented cut
ting ou Salnrd.iy last, and will bare
ma ie by this et t-cing n4 l-.-ss than t etr
five tons of e-s-d ci'iier bay. This is
more than either my lather or myaeif
ever succeeded in harvesting in a cor
responding period, and our combined
experiences extend back for a gI
many years. In Conemaugh township
generally the hay crop is good, but a vis
it to (iiemabonings'iowa that it will be
light there. This is largely accounted
for by the fact that w e bad a good soak
ing rain two week ago, wbile they had
none at all; nor was there enough to
amount to anything in the southern part
of Conemaugh.
"Our wheat crop, as well as oar bay
crop, will lie good; some old fields are
"better than they have leon for fifty years.
OaU look w e!!. Corn u late, but is do
ing well, and may yield a fair crop. Po
tatoes will not be as good aa for tbe past
two years. Apples w ill be a light crop;
pears, half a crop; cherries, a quarter
crop; berries, a full crop; grapes, a goo I
crop at some p!an, but in low grounds
they were hurt by late frosts. Peaches
will be a full cr p where there are trees,
but the last fe m w inters the o!d trees
were nearly all frozen." Johnstown

There Is a big fight on in Ihinbar
township, Fayette county, over the road
question. Iunlr township has been
operating under a special law similar to
tbe Luzerne law. The roads were in
charge of three commissioners who di
vided tbe roads iuto section of not more
than a mile each. The contracts fr
keeping the road-t were awarded to tbe
lowest bidder, one section at a time and
for three year. Last year ths coutract
was let and tbe btal for all the mads
for the three years was on!y or
f I..VJ a year. Iespite this low price,
the petitioner aver, the e.:nuiiioner
levied a tax of five mills tor thi year.
hich on the assessed valuation of the
property of the town.hip would raise
sum of I.7', or over twelve times tbe
amount of the legal oifitrsct.
