A barn on the George Leidy estate, in
Lincoln township, was destroyed by fire
about teu days ago. One of the young
men about the place visited the barn at
au early hour in the evening and a short
time afterwards, on his way to Sipes
ville, discovered that it was in flames.
He promptly raise. 1 an alarm, but too
late to save the building or its contents.
Loss estimated at
John L. Say lor' s barn, near Friedens

by fire shortly after II o'clock Tuesday
night, 21sL One horse and large quan
tity of farm produce and farming imple

The Union Provision Company have
shut down at their packing bouse where
for the past two years a large number of
hogs were slaughtered and the meat cur
ed for market. While a ready market
was found for the cured meat, it appears

sume the fresh meat that had to be dis
posed of within a few dayssafter the ani
mals were killed. The Provision Com
pany will hereafter devote its attention
to manufacturing creamery butter.
The Somerset school board is coming in
for a good deal of criticism for the delay
in opening the schools for the winter
terra. It is currently reported that the
contractor has never signed a contract for
the new building and that no time has
been specified for its completion. We
take it that this report is unwarranted for
th? reason that several of the most suc
cessful bjsiness and professional men in
town are mom Iters of the board, and it is
presumed as a matter of course that they
have given the same careful attention to
their public duties as they have to their
private affairs. The school board should
nit rest under allegations of such a seri
ous character and should promptly silence
their critics.
A gentlemen in town last week from
the ne town of Win Fur siy tu a greit
enterprise is being displayed in that
plaoe and that alrei ly from forty to fifty
dwelling bouses are under way, iu addi
tion to three or four lirge and commo
dious store houses. Several hotels will
be und v way in a few days and if the an
ticipations of the piomoters of the new
town are realized, Windber, in the course
of two or three years, will be the largest
town in the county, having a population
of 3,o to 5,0.10 souls. The houses being
erected by the Berwind-White Company
are not temporary structures but are sub
stantially built and supplied with mod
ern conveniences. A public water plant
will be in operation early next year, sup
plying the inhabitants of Win ibjr with
water for domestic use and fire protec
tion.
The C mnty Commissioners have in
structed all of the assessors in the various
districts to assess all property at its actual
value. The officers will find considera
ble trouble ahead of them and it is
likely that the appeals next year will be
more largely attended than ever before.
The a !ual value of a piece of property is
a very difficult thing to get at, as was 11-
ustrated at the Sheriff's sale last week.
when several tracts disposed of are al
leged to have been worth more tl an
double the amount at which they were
knocked down. While the law of the
Commonwealth requires assessors to
in ike their assessments on an actual cash
bads, the variation In some of the dis
tricts is as much as forty per cent. The
Commissioners hope under the present
triennial assessment to get the valuation
as nearly uniform as possible in all of the
districts, and at the same time to secure
sufficient additional revenue tu meet the
deficit left by their immediate predeces
sors in office.

WORK WILL BEOIS IXXZSUTZLT.
The summer hotel on Tayman Hill is a
sure go. The contract was signed Mon
day morning and to day 100,0(0 feet of
lumber will be delivered aud work on
the immense structure will lie commen
ced to-morrow moruing. The contrac
tors fully expect to have the building un
der roof and plastered before the middle
of December, aud from then till spring
will take their own time to finishing it.
the only stipulation beiug that it be
ready for the reception of guests at the
opening of the season of !, about June
first.
The original plans of the building have
been modified in some particulars, prin
cipally in the way of dispensing with
costly and useless exterior ornamenta
tion. The dimensions have not been al
tered and the hotel will cover the great
stone walls already prepared for its re
ception. The original lines of the build
ing will be carried cut, while better
heating and ventilating apparatus has
been provided for. Another important
change made in the original plaus pro
vides for a perfect system of baths.
Just as soon as the frame of the build
ing has been placed in position, plumb
ers will be set at work putting in the
steam healing apparatus aud the build
ing will be kept comfortably warm
throughout the winter in order that
workmen may not be delayed a single
day on account of cold.
John Husband A Bro., of Mt. Pleasant,
Pa., are tha contractors, and both were
here Monday morning. The senior
member of the firm said to a Herald
representative that his firm would com
nienee work immediately aud that noth
ing wonld retard the work on the hotel,
as a great deal of the material had al
ready been ordered and some of it was ou
its way. Husband A Bro. have the rep
utation of being hustlers and as they are
contractors of large experience and not
hampered for means it is probable that
they will have tho hotel well under way
before cold weather. Mr. Husband says
that the building when ompleted will
be one of the handsomest and most sub
stantial structures of the kind in the east
and will lie certainly an improvement on
the original plans, which have been de
viated from ouly in the way of strength
ening the building and cutting off cheap
ornamentation, that would only rot when
expoMed to the weather.
The members of the Hotel Company
present at the letting Saturday night,
were Messrs. W. II. Kooutz, J. M. Lou
iber, C. J. Harrison, Geo. II. Taymun
a,id W. A. Scott, and as a matter of
couie all are "in high feather" over the
steps L-ktn, as the delay during the two
years the enterprise has been under con
sideration has been more or less aggra
vating to all of them.
The people of Somerset are delighted
that all obstacles in the way of the Hotel
Company have been removed, that next
season they are to have one of the finest
summer hotels in the country located il
their town, and that from 400 to MO stran
gers will spend their summer vacation

Saved by a Button.
The fact that Policeman Lytle, of Con
fluence is alive to-day is entirely due to
the intervention of a button. Shot squar-
y iu the breast by a burglar, the nervy
officer tells the story of his fierce battle
with thieving thugs and exhibits a
smashed and broken button to confirm
his statements.
About two o'clock last Tuesday morn
ing Officer Ly tie's attention was attracted
to movements in GrofTs store. He paus
ed to investigate and iu a very short time
knew the store was being burglarized.
He secured his revolver and stepped
across the street to investigate and, if
possible, make a capture.
He had just reached the pavement in
front of the store, in which, through the
wiudows, be could see by the electric
light two burglars, when a man sudden
ly sprang in front of him from around
the corner of the building, where he had
evidently been hiding, with the peremp
tory order, "Hands up!" followed by a
vile name, and fired.
Tbey were very close, only four or five
feet between them. The bullet, a 33 cali
ber, hit the policeman squarely in the
breast, going through two thicknesses of
a very heavy overcoat and would have
killed him, but happened to strike a but
ton on his undercoat which stopped it.
Lytle was stunned, but called for help.
In the confusion the three burglars es-
ciped. As they ran Lytle tried to fire
after them, but bis revolver snapped.
They had large bundles of goods put up
ready to take away with them, clothing,
dress goods, shoes, etc The policeman
didn't recognize any of the burglars. He
has a slight woucd in the breast, but is
n no danger.

The regular September term of court
convened at 10 o'clock Monday morning,
with Judges Longenecker, Horner and
Black on the bench.
The trial calendar contains sixty
eight cases, a majority of which are of a
trivial nature, but the probabilities are
that the entire week will be taken up in
disposing of them.
Monday afternoon William Berkey
plead guilty to a charge of fornix et cel
preferred by Elizabeth Pile, and the usu
al sentence was impsed.
Kiser Kimmell, the Garrett landlord
was next placed on trial, charged with
keeping a gambling house and violating
the Slate liquor laws. From the testi
mony gotten from a number of unwil
ling witnesses it appears that Kiser has
kept sort 'of a "freak" establishment,
where minors were able to visit a back
room and be served with drinks by un
known parties. One witness testified to
finding a drink of wine sitting in a glass
by his chair iu the bar room, placed there
by an invlsable hand; the glass was
drained whan it was retu rned to the bar,
however. Other witnesses told of send
ing a messenger to the Kimmell "joint"
on the Sabbath day for whisky, and
while they didn't see the sale transacted.
declared that when the messenger re
tu red he had the "stuff" in his pocket.
A number of witnesses told of having
seen persons playing cards for chickens
In the wash house on the Kimmel prem
ises.
After deliberating for four hours the
jury returned a verdict of not guilty on
both counts in the indictment but placed
the costs of both upon the defendant.
Amos Ricker, alias Anioa Troutman,
and Henry Deal plead guilty to a bill ol
indictment charging them with Isirglary,
the prosecutor being Phineas Werner,
a Greenville township farmer, who was
robbed of ?1.-HI0 some tiru: ago. The
Court sentenced Troutman to IS months
in the penitentiary, aud Ileal, who is a
mere lad, 'jo the Hunting I.uj Reforma
tory. Troutman and iHad claim that
Charles Bloom, for whom officers have
been looking for some time and who re
eerily escaped from the Meyersdale po
lio" officer, was the instigator of the
crime, aud lb -it he divided the stolen
uiooey, keepiug a greater portion of :l
himself, because his confederates were
unable to count.
"Soldier Bill" Showman plead guilty
Tuesday morning to breaking into the
Frease A Kooser store, iu Somerset, and
conveying away a couple dollars' worth
of groceries, etc William was given
I I months in the penitentiary.
James Cummins, charged with attempt
ed criminal assault, on information of
Elizabeth Sbafftjr, was placed on trial
Tuesday afternoon. The evidence elicit
ed corroborated the statement of the
case presented in last week's issue of the
Herald. The jury returned a verdict of
guilty o( assault.
The next case taken up was that of the
Commonwealth vs. Rebecca Kiester,
charged with assault and battery on in
formation of Ellen J. Null. The parties
in this case hail from Salisbury and it ap
peared from the testimony that the wo
men met at a watering trough in that
place on the 7th day of last July, when
the Ki ester woman charged Mrs. Null
with gossiping about her. One word
brought on another and finally the ladies
clinched, Mrs. Null being the stronger.

subdued. The case was still on trial

. '
Jesse It rant, aged 74 years, died at his
home in tlrothersvaliey township, on
Saturday, lsth last. He is survived by
his wife and six children. Deceased was
one of the most prominent and highly
respected citiiens of the district iu which
be resided. He was a leading member of
the Reformed Church and at the time of
his death was an cider of that denomi
nation. .
Iianiel Cobaiigh died at 3 o'clock yes
terday moruing at his home one mile
north of this place, aed 52 years. De
ceased bad been in delicate haalth, suf
fering from a complication of stomach
ind bowel disorders for a number of
years, but was not confined to his home
until about six weeks ago, since when
his strength slowly lei him and death
resulted from enfeebled vitality. While
his death was anticipated by the catchers
at his bed-tide tho end ciina as a crush
ing blow to all of them.
Deceased was the ouly surviving son of
the venerable Ueorge Cobaiigh, now past
eighty years of age. He was birn 52
years ago on the adjoining farm on
which be died. He was married about

Kvangelical church and his life was spot
less throughout.
Tho funeral will Uke place at 10 o'clock
to-iuorrow morning. Interment in the

Giait Harvf iter.
This season, iu the great wheat-growing
sec-ion of the San Joaquin valley, a
giant harvester has been in use which
cuts, threshes and sacks the wheat grow
ing on HU acres daily. The machine,
when all iu sickle are in use, cuts the
enormous swath of 52 feet, says Harper's
Weekly. Kight or ten mon are able to
handle it easily, and it turns out from
I.O to l.sou sacks of wheat in a 10 hour
day.
The machine i9 arranged with a cen
tral body, which is the regulation 2tf foot
harvester. On each side of this main
kickle is a 1 Moot sickle. When the ma
chine began work this year, the traction
engine, which was built especially for it.
pushed this enormous harvester through
the heavy grain of the islands of the San
Joaquin river as easily as a team of
horses would draw a wagon on a road.
When, however, the softer ground was
reached, the weight of the machine
proved to be so great that the wheels
sank into the soil, and the traction en
gine could not do its work as rapidly as
it should have done; hence there was a
great loss of power. Tj remedy this, the
tide sickles had to be removed.
The output of the machine in this new
from is 6X) to 8X) sacks per day. Next
season the owners will use it on upland
ouly, where they will be able to employ
all three of the sickles, thus making it
the largest harvester in the world.
lattices' Appeals.
The last legislature pased an act
which is of vital importance to everyone
who appeals a ease from the decision of
of justice of the peace. This law pro
vides that no appeal shall be entertained
unless the appellant makes affidavit that
be verily believes injustice has been
done. Some justices have noi made
themselves familiar with the new law,
and if they bad entertained any appeals,
no matter how just, the ends of justice
would be defeated if the opposing eouu
sel went into court and asked to have it
stricken oft. The laws reads as follows:
"That from and after the first day of
July, 1S7, no appeal shall be entertained
from the judgment of a justice of the
peace or alderman unless the appellant
or his attorney or agent shall make affi
davit that the appeal is not for delay, but
bncause he verily believes that injustice
has been done."

Autumn Arbor Day.
Friday, October 22 1, is designated as
autumn Arbor Day in a proclamation is
sued by Dr. Schaetrer, the Superintend
ent of Public Instruction, lately. He
recommends that the day he observed tiy
the planting of trees and by the exercises
designed to give pupils helpful informa
tion concerning our trees and forests. Dr.
ScbaelTer say :
"It cannot be denied that the observ
ance of Arbor Day has helped to create
the public sentiment which is back of our
receut legislation on forestry. A depart
ment of agriculture has been established
in which the grave interests involved in
the careofonr forests are intrusted to a
commissioner who is an expert in forest
ry. It is gratifying to note that laws
have been enai-ted for the preservation
of our forests from fire and for the par
tial relief of forest lands from taxation;
and that provision has been made fur
the purchase of three forestry reserva
tions near the headwaters of the Dela
ware, the Susiehanna, and the Ohio,
each of forty thousand acres in extent.''
Ballot Law ia Coart
The action of the Democratic city com
mittee of Philadelphia against Secretary
of the Commonwealth Martin to test the
constitutionality of that provision of t!e
amended ballot law which provides that
the name of any candidate shall not ap
pear more than once on the oirk-ial ballot,
was Thursday brought in the Dauphin
county court and Judge McPherson
awarded a writ of alternative mandamus
returnable at 12 o'clock Wednesday.
The suit is brought because the Secre
tary of the Commonwealth refused to
certify the nomination of Judges Bmgy,
Wiltbank, Audenreid and Ferguson on
the Iemocratic ticket for the reason that
these names already appear on the He
publican ticket. The bill sets forth that
the provision prohibiting the Secretary
of the Commonwealth from transmitting
the names of any candidates appearing
more than once by certiiWte of nomina
tion upon the ollicial ballot is unconstitu
tional; that it is inconsistent with and
contrary to the laws of Pennsylvania re
lating to the conduct of primary elec
tions, aud further that it is contrary to
public policy.
