whose death on tha l l:h inst., appeared
in last week's Hkrald, was born on Miiy
2, ls'-M, near Woodstock, Shenandoah
county, Va., and was, therefore, 71 years,
4 mouths and 11 days old at the time of

Charge! With Anon.
William Richardson, aged a'vmt 'l
years, was l,Klg"d in Jail Saturday even
ing to await trial on a charge of arson. If
the allcgatloi-s against tbe prisoner can
be flulwtuntiatod he Is guilty of one or the
most dialH'lical attempts to burn up six
human beings on record. The nature of
the evideni-e agsiiiHt Richardson has not
bo. n made public, but the officers cvi
dently had something tangible on which
to base his arrest. Several other parlies
are suspei-tcd of having been implicated
with Richardson in the crpctrnlioii of
the crime and warrants have tocn issued
for their arrest. The officers who arrested
Richardson had expected to corral all of
tbe parties for whom warrant have been
issued, but the others got wind of what
was coming and skipped. Richardson
was taken into custody at his home near
Fairhope. Ho stoutly maintains his iu
nocence. The crime with which Richardson
stands chargod is the burning of the gen
eral storo of L. B. Dorn, at Fairhope, this
county. Dorn deals in genoral merchan
dise and carries a stock of betw een $t,0U0
and 5,000 worth of goods. He and his
family and a boarder named Brown oc,
copy a dwelling some fifty feet from the
store. About 4 o'clock last Friday morn
ing one week ago Mrs. I)jrn was aroused
by a noise at the gate in front of the
dwelling. Looking out of a window she
discovered a light at the store. She at
once aroused her husband, who soon saw
tbat the store building was in names.
Mr. and Mrs. Dorn hurried to the burn
ing building, but it was too late to fight
the fire, as the entire building was envel
oped in flames. A strong stench of kero
sene permeated the atmosphere and it
was apparent tbat it had been usod in
firing tho building. While Dorn and his
wife were standing helpless watchiug
their store and its contents perish they
beard Brown cry out that their home was
on fire. Hastily Itcating a retreat to the
house they found that the rear porch was
In flames and burniug furiously. The
two Dorns and Brown secured a number
of bncketfuls of water with which they
mads a successful fight against the fire at
the dwelling ami soon had it under con
trol. The lloor of the iorch had been
saturated with kerosene, while the rear
of the building had been drenched with
the same iullammable fluid. On one
corner of the porch was a bundle or some
ten iou nils or cotton waste, a lot or cast
off clothing, all or which were saturated
with kerosene, and a piece or Tuse which
had been used to ignito the inflammable
material. Brown had picked up his
trunk, when ho was apprised or the tire,
and started down tbe rear stairway,
when he discovered tho flames on the
back Hrch.
There was no question alxmt the fire
having been of incendiary origin, and
suspicion was at once directed towards
Richardson and his confederates, all of
whom it is alleg.nl had leen refused rur
ther credit at the Iwrn storo.
Mr. I Kirn's loss is estimated at g5,ui0;
no insurance.

youngest daughter of Captain and Mrs.
H. A. Ayres, and Mr. Willis Lee Rhoads,
ofSomerst't. Pa., was celebrated at the
home of the bride's parents on North
McKean Btr.et at 7 o'clock Wednesday
evening. The ceremony was erformed
by Rev. A. C. Johnson, I). D. Tbo bride
was attired in white aud carried a boquet
of white roses. As the couple cntured
they were preceded by Roso Brandon
as flower girl, and tha wedding march
was played on the piano by Miss Lottie
McClosky, of Pittsburg, a cousin of the
groom. Ooly relatives and immediate
friends of the bride and groom were pres
ent. Among the former were Mrs. Charles
Rhoads, and Missea Carrie aud Nellie
Rhoads, of Somerset, mother aud sisters
of the groom.
The bride is known in Butlar as an
attractive and highly accomplished young
lady, while her fame as an elocutionist
extends Tar beyond the limits other place
of residence. Mr. Rhoads is a young
man of ability, and is now engaged as
general agent for E. C. DeWitt A Co.,Ji
Chicago li: m which does an extensive
business throughout tbe country.
After the matrimonial knot was tied,
Mr. and Mrs. Rhoads departed for their
wedding tour to include Chicago and the
great lakes, taking a carriage for Pitts
burg. Upon their return about October
I, they w ill reside in Butler. Butler Rec
ord. Eoddy Boj and the Supreme Court.
Tbe relatives or John and James Rod
dy, confined in tbe county jail under sen
tence or death for the killing of David
Berkey, appear to be unable to raise suf
ficient funds to carry the case to the Su
preme Court, before w hich appeals rrom
the Somerset county court will be heard
on Octolier Uth, in the city of Piltsixirg.
Messrs. Coffroth A Ruppel and Chas.
F. Uhl. Jr., counsel for the condemned
men, are steadfast in the lielief or their
clients' innocence, and it is probable
tbat they will ask the Supreme Court to
waive tbe rule in regard to having the
testimony, argument, exceptions or er
ror, Ac,, printed in the usual book form
in this case and permit them to tile a
tyie written copy or tbe same for the in
spection of tbe Court.
Of course it is not known whether or
not tbe Supreme Court ill comply with
the request of counsel in this particular,
but counsel hope that In an appeal where
two human lives are at stake they will
do so, or at least continue tbe case until
the friends of the condemned men have
been given fiirther opportunity to pre
sent their case in proper form.
Should tho Supreme Court reftise to go
into the matter in the form in
which it is likely to !e presented, then
counsel for the condemned men will go
before the Board of Pardons and eudeav
or to have their clients pardoned, or at
least have tho sentence or death commut
ed to one or life imprisonment.
Charged With Attempted-Criminal Aiianlt
James Cummins was lodged ia jail
Friday evening to await trial on a charge
of attempted criminal assault preferred
by Miss Elizalieth Shaffer, aged 17, whose
parents reside on coal hill, a short dis
tance east of this place.
It appears .that Miss Shaffer came to
town Friday afternoon for the purpose or
making a few purchases at different
stores and about four o'clock started for
home, Cummins it is alleged followed
her out of town and to the foot or coal hill,
where he approached her and asked her
to go into the bushes skirting the road,
with him. The girl spurned his request
when he laid hauds upon her and at
tempted to carry her into the under
growth by force. The now thoroughly
frightened girl began to scream and fight
with all bur strength. Her cries were
heard by several persons In the neighbor
hood who hastened to her assistance and
frightened Cummins away, but not until
ho bad partially denuded the girl of her
clothing.' Miss Shaffer ran to her home,
a few hundred yards distant aud inform
ed her mother or the assault with the
result that Mrs. Shaffer came atoneeto
town aud lodged an information against
Cummins as staled above. Cummins was
under the inlluenco of liquor at the time
and it is claimed that be asked persons
he passed ou tbe road, not to tell th it
tbey had seen him in that neighborhood.
The prisoner demanded a hearing and
was taken before Esquire Knepper, Sat
urday afternoon, when he elected to re
turn to jail without going through that
formality. Bail was fixed at 500.

THIT FOUGHT LIXE BSAVE KES.
Everett Republican.
The I'iJd Pennsylvania Volunteer In
fantry was irt;aiiizsl at Camp Cnrtin,
Ilarrisbuig, Pa, Tho couipanit assem
bled at camn from the first to the tenth of
August, IHiC Companies A and B were
from Johnstown and vicinity, F from
Ebensburg, Cambria county, G, II and I
rrom Perry county, C and K from Bed
ford county, and D and E from Somerset
county.
On the 12th of August the following
field officers were commissioned:
Franklin B. Speak man. Colonel; Abra
ham Copolln, of Johnstown, Lleutentant
Colonel; Edward M. Schrock, of Somerset
county, Major; James C. Noon, of Elx-ns-burg,
was appoiuted Adjutant, John
Castner, of Bedford county was appoint
ed Quartermaster, David D. Kennedy, of
Perry county. Surgeon or the regiment.
and A. J. Hartsock, or Johustowu, was
appointed Chaplain.
The Regiment consistod or ten frill
companies, which gave it a strength of
one thousand men. The companies were
commanded as follows.
Company A, Captain John Downey.
Company B, Captain Charles Rutland.
Company C, Captain Alexander Bohb.
Company D, Captain Araoa Schrock.
Company E, Captain George F. Baer.
Company F, Captain John M. Jones.
Company (1. Captain VVm. II. Schibley.
Company H, Cnptain David L.Tressler.
Company I, Captain Alliert B. Demaree.
Company K, Captain Samuel B. Tate.
The Regiment was made up of men
from almost every avocation in lifo, and
being from the mountain regions In
Pennsylvania, were nearly all accustom
ed to the use of firearms. The armies in
Virginia having met with disaster, they
made a patriotic response to the call or
President Lincoln for volunteers to stem
the rebel tide then flowing North and
which threatened to engulf the city or
Washington. On completing the organi
zation and equipment at Harrisburg the
Regiment was hurried forward to Wash
ington, where they reported to General
Casey, who at once ordered them to Ar
lington Heights, Virginia, where the
regiment was brigaded with tbe litd,
131st and I.Vth Pennsylvania Regiments.
Col. P. H. Allabacb.ofthe Hist, was plac
ed iu command of the Brigade.
On tho night of the 3oth or August, ISiU,
the Regiment was moved to tbe front.
w here they did their first picket duty.
The army or General Pope was at this
time railing back on Washington rrom
Bull Rue. It was on this occasion that
Major Sohroek camo near losing bis life.
E.J. Riley, or Company K, mistook him
for ono or the enemy in the darkness, and
burs ted a cap at him at a distance cf ten
feet. For the next two weeks they were
engaged in picket duty and in throwing
up iiitrenchments. (in tbe 12th or Sep
tenilsr they nioved to Washington with
tbe Brigade, which was thereafter known
as the Second Brigade, Third Division,
Fifth Army Corps, or Humphreys' Di
vision.
There they exchanged their new but
defective Austrian rifles for Springfield
muskets which used ball and buckshot
and Is terribly destructive at short range.
The Regiments afterwards gave the rebel
brigades of Kershaw an 1 Cobb a practi
cal demonstration of tbat fa.a at Freder
icksburg. It gives ono the night mare yet to
think about it. On the 4th the Regiment
t'wik up the line of march to meet in
Maryland tbe army of Lee, which was
threatening the borders or Pennsylvania.
On the morning of the ISth they arrived
on the battlefield of Antictain and at
on-e formed in line of battle and awaited
a renewal of the battle cf the previous
day.
On tbe following morning the enemy
having stolen away without attempting
to seriously eontest the ground further,
the Regiment moved forward over the
field covered with the dead and wounded
tr both armies an 1 went into camp near
Sharpsburg, on the Shepardstown road.
It remained there until the close or Octo
ber, when the army moved once more
into Virginia, and the Fredericksburg
campaign was inaugurated under Bnrn
sido. For nearly a month preceding the
battle or Fredericksburg the Regiment
was in camp near Falmouth, constantly
engaged in drill and preparations for a
decisive engagement. Between two and
three o'clock on Saturdiy, tbe ttth of
Dec, tbe Regiment, with the other regi
ments of the brigade, was ordered across
the river. The crossing was successfully
accomplished under a heavy artillery fire
from the enemy's batteries. The Bri
gade advanced through Fredericksburg,
crossed the canal just outsideof the town,
and, filing to the left, fir mod in lin of
battle under cover of a low hill. Knap
sacks were unslung and bayonets fixe, I.
In the formation of the Brigade in order
of battle, the l'ldd Rgimont formad the
right of the rront line and lel the charge
on the stone wall and sunken road at the
base of Marye's hill. The grand ad
vance across that plain of death and the
brave determination with which they
held their ground iu tho face or over
whelming numbers in a strongly forti
fied position for uearly a:i boor made
this one of the greatest charges in tha his
tory of modern warfare. The Regiment
gained a position within fifty yards of tbe
stone wall and held it until tbey were
stampeded by the first brigade, (Tyler's)
which was sent to their support. Fiu J
ing them all lying down among the dead
and wounded, and thinking as somo of
them said afterwards, that all were dead
or wounded, they stampeded, after firing
one volley. This stampede was quickly
followed by tho wrecked 21 brigade,
( Allabach's.) General Humphreys and
staff made a vain effort to preveut the
stampede; the General rode rocklessly
among his men calling to them to re-form
and give the enemy the cold steel, but
they realized that all was lost, and fell
back in confusion, but reformed in line
of battle near the place where they had
formed lor the charge an hour before.
Here the Regiment remained during the
most of the night, squads being sent out to
scour tbe field and bring in the wound
ed. At 3 o'clock on Sunday morning,
they were marched Into the town, where
tbey received a fresh supply of ammuui
tion and were ag dn ordered to the field.
Tbey were again formed on tbe same
ground where tbey had formed the day
before for their disastrous charge on the
stonewall. They were somewhat shel
tered by tbe low hill but exposed to the
enemy's fire. At seven o'clock iu the
evening tbey were ordered into Freder
icksburg, where they remained until
Tuesday morning, having been treated
to a lively bombardment from the rebel
batteries on Marye's hill. When dark
ness set in on Monday night the retreat
of the at my across the river commenced.
Tbe lTJd was among the last regiments
to cross, reaching the north side or the
river just bofore daylight on Tuesday
morning. They went direct to their old
camp, a wreck of tbe fine organization
that had lea there a few days berore,
having lost one-third or the men engaged
on that ratal day. They remained in

Camp Humphreys engaged in the regu
lar routine duty.
Tbe next move they made was in Burn
side's Winter Campaign, known as the
"mud march," on tho -JDth or January,
l-sL A warm rain set in during this
march and thawed out tbe ground and
anchored the army hopelessly in tha
mud. After sulturing untold hardships
they returned a second lime to their old
camp, whore they remained until the
opening or active operations or the cam
paign under Hooker. On the morning or
tho'JTth or April the Regiment broke
camp and moved West with the Fifth,
F.levenlh and Twelfth Corps. On this
inarch the Kegiment, tog)t'.:er with tho
whole or Humphrey's Division, was com
pelled to wade tbe Itapidau river. The
stream was from four to five feet deep,
cold and swift. In the formation to re
ceive the enemy at Chancellorsville,
Humphreys' Division was posted on the
extreme left, whero they remained until
the stampede of the Kleventh Corps on
the right, when, together with the rest of
the division, tho Kegirnent was hur
ried forward to stay the storm in that di
rection; they formed in line near the
Chancellorsville house and advanced on
tho enemy, and drove them back into the
woods tor a mile. The reliels set fire to
the woods and advanced under cover of
tbe smoke and turned the right Hank of
the Brigade back at a right angle. After
some maneuvering tho Brigade was ex-tri.-ato!
from this position, showing their
contempt for tho enemy by executing
some fine battalion movements ou their
way out to the original line near the
Chancellorsviile hous, where they re
mained until tbe cio of the battle.
They formed the rear guard daring the
retreat, and was the last to cross the histor
ic Kapahannock and return again to their ,
old camp. Their term of service had
now expired, they marched to Aquia
creek early in May and took a steamer
homeward bound.
Back From thi Grava
We can not come, but we can often stay j
our progress thither. Disease, like I
everything else, must have a beginning.
All chronic maladies tend to shorten life.
and render it a species of martyrdom
while they last. Malaria, kidney com
plaint, chronic indigestion, rheumatism
all have small beginnings, and may be
stayed at the outset with Hostelter's
Stomach Bitters. This excellent tonic
and alterative is adapted alike to the pre
vention of disorders or the system and to
their removal, and its early use can not ;
lie ts strongly advocated. To reucw ap
petite and insure tranquil rest, there is
no surer and pleasanter means than the
Bitter. The efTocts of overwork and ex
haustion, mental or physical, are coun
teracted by it, and tbe busy merchant,
tbe tired clerk or operative, and the
brain weary student, author or newspa
per man, dorive from its present relte
and future energy.

Farmers don't fsol away your wheat.
Whilst wheat is selling at fl.no per bush
el in Chic i? and fl 0 iu Baltimore,
Phila lclphU and Now York, there are
speculators now in tho county who want
to buy it at K and M cents and say
they can't pay mora. I u't you sell un
der $1.0). Th.3 Foreign demand is so
g.Ksl, and the foreign crop so poor, that
before a now crop next year there w ill be
a perfect scramble r.r American wh-at.
If they dou't want to p ly $I.IM don't sell.
Just wait; you are bound to g-t it. Now is
yo-.irliina. For the 1 -t six years wheat
was so plenty, and foreign demand so
email, that yoa coul I not help your
selves and the seller bad to hunt the buy
er. This year the buyer hunts tbe seller.
Steady; no rush; it is all wanted, and
you'll get ?i 00 per bushel, sure and cer
tain, during this crop year, if you but
hold it at that.

Don't give them toa or coffee. Have you
tried the new food drink called Grain-OT
It is delicious and nourishing and takes
the place ot coffee. The more Grain-O
you give the children the more health
you distribute through their systems.
Grain-O is made or pure grains.and when
properly prepared tastes like the choice
grades or coffee but costs about las much.
