Mr. Harvey D. Tissue has been ap

received o.tirdal notice of his sppoinment
on Thursday, aud on Friday forwarded
his Iwnd to the Postoflice Department.
He has proIibly received his commission

On account of the gloomy atmosphere
that has prevailed during the past tea

should fully appreciate.
John C. Miller, one of the best known
young farmer? of Somerset township,
and his fourteen-year-old daughter, have
both been confined to their beds for sev
eral weeks suffering from typhoid fever.
At last reports both were on a fair road
towards recovery. Mr. Miller's father-iu-iaw,
the venerable Alexander Hunter,
is also suffering from the same disease.
Mr. "I'itt"' iiilbert, one of Somerset's
most successful marksmen, g't a crack
at a pair of wild turkeys on Taynian Hill
wit; ii bight of town, on Saturday after
noon, and brought down a fine 10 pound
hen. The birds had evidently been
frightened from their mountain home by
the numerous hunters who have been in
search of game evtr siaca the season
opened.
Few towns of similar size in the State
boast of as many handsome business
blocks and store-rooms as Somerset, and
few, if any, have as many fctore-rooms
with plate-glass fronw. Fifteen years ago
there was n- sheet of plate-glass in the
town, wbi'.e to-day there are only a half
dozeu Ures without large plate -glass
win',ows. The latest addition, and deci
dedly the prettiest, is the "show-window"
in M. J. Black's Gentlemen's Furnishing
Store.
Next week the public school teachers
of the county will be the guests of the
county seat. They will number 301 in
all, and will probably be accompanied
by double that uumlier of friends. Iu
fact the Annual Toachers' Iustitute will
aftra-t a majority of.the brightest young
poople of both Hexas in the county to
Somerset next w.H-k. All will be cordial
ly welcomed and the residents of the
town will make crery cttort to make
their stay as pleasant and profitable as
possible.
The many Somerset county friends of
CoL E. H. Warwell, of Baltimore, Md.,
will lie pleased to learn that he has been
appointed private secretary to the new
Republican Mayor of that city, having
entered upon his duties Monday morn

Maryland politics for a number of years
aud had much to do with bringing about
Major Malster's nomination and elec
tion. He s thoroughly well equipped to
discharge his new duties and will bean

Prothonotary Barron's office is Uae last
of the departments in the court house to
be remodeled and refurnished during
the year. Workmen have just laid a
sulistautial hardwood floor in it and dur
ing the week will place a handsome hard
wood counter in position, when the Pro-
thonotarv and his genial clerk, "Bent"
Pullin, w ill lie in a better position to at
tend to their duties than heretofore. The
old furniture in all of the county offices
had outlived its usefulness, having been
placed in them when the court house was
erected in IST.i The transformation is
appreciated by all who have business to
transact at the court house.

Register and Recorder James M. Cover
a fe days agi made thvt interesting dis
covery that Ephraim lilaine, father of
James ;. Blaine, was at one time a land
owner in this county. Mr. Cover was
looking up. in one of the oldest deed
record iu his offi.e, th title to a tract of
three hundred acres ii! Jenuer township,
whiu he discovered that the original
patent had been issued to Jacob Work,
who on February 10, 1770 deeded it to
Epbrniui Blaine, of Cumberland county,
Provin-je of Pennsylvania, in considera
tion of the sum of fire shillings (1.21 )
The land is described as lying along the
Provincial Rad, w here said road crosses
ii lemahouiug Creek. The present own
ers of the tract are Dr. Joseph Cvode,
Thomas Jallagher, Benjamin Enus, C.
H. Kautz and James M. Cover, aud most
of it is still wood land, a short distance
east of Jenners.

At t Tax Lisas.
Good lawyers have tor tKMiie time held
that there was no gfnersj law in Penn
sylvania making taxes on real estate a
prior lieu. This opinion has recently
been sustained by the superior court of
this statA, la the case of Tbeurer's appeal,
5 Pa. Superior Court 2"i
The act of June 2, lSsl, P. L. 45, under
which supposed Iien9 were created by re
porting uncollected Uxes to the county
comtiu-&ioners, was dwdared unconstitu
tional in ihe care of Van Loon vs. Eugle,
171 Pa. 167: and Theurer's anneal nft
only clearly exposes the absurdity of the I
claim that the act of May 22, P. L,
111, creates any lien, but just as clearly
decides that there re no tax liens in this
state except such as are created by local
or special laws .
In Somerset county, therefore, there is
no way of making taxea on real estate a
prior hen; and collectors will hereafter
have to get rid of difficult collections in
some other way than by returning them
to the county commissioners. Iu fact, it
always has been the duty of collectors
to coiled the taxes charged on the dupli
cates placed in their hands and these
returns have simply been an evasion ot
that duty. A coLector'a warrant is good
for two years from iu date and under the
4,kh section of the act of April 15, 1834. it
authorizes him to distrain and still the
gxds aad chattels of any person occupy
ing any real estate, for the non-payment
.? any tuxes assessed upon such real es
tate during his possession or occupancy
and remaining unpaid, in like manner
as if they were the goods and chattels of
the owners of such real estate; aud this
remedy is available at any time after such
taxes have lecome delinquent..
Then there is the additional remedy
provided by the Cist section of the same
act, whereby the collector is empowered
to distrain and sell the g'xxls and chattels
of any delinquent, whether on or off the
premises, af;er thirty days notice to pay ;
and, in case no goods can be found, to put
him iu jail, These are, and always have
been, the only proper ways to compel the
payment of taxes In Somerset county.
From this state of the law, it fol'ows
that it will he useless, simply a waste, of
time aud less of money, hereafter to file
notices of delinquent taxes with any sher
ilTor constable, on the sale of a delin
quent's property. Everything must de
pend on the vigilance of the collector,
and his vigilance will depend in a great
degree ou the amount of backbone dis
played by schind b-iards borough coun
cils and county commissioners in refusing
exonerations or to "take the duplicate
oiftlie har.ds"' of a delinquent collector.
A Piece of Parchment,
When unwrilUm on, is not more colorless

it counteracts the effects of undue fatigue;

From the Johnstown Tribune.
J. L. Baumgarduer, of Ogle Township
Somerset County, has earned the distinc
tion among his neigbltors of being one of
the best marksmen in his part of the
State. Thus far this seison he has killed
eight turkeys two geesa, two ducks two
gray squirrels, anl a pheasant All
brought down in spare momenta and
without making any point of going a
hunting. On last Saturday aaemoon he killed
two turkeys on the w ing, one weighing
twelve pounds and the other fifteen. He
has shot over two hundred turkeys od the
wing altogether, and has promised several
Johnstown friends a turkey as a gilt for
Thanksgiving dinner this year. He al
ready has the birds "sp-tte.1,'' and those
who know of his unerring aim have no
doutt that all his promises will be made
good.
DeafneM and Discharge From Ears.
Iu no class of diseases is there so much
"putting of! till a 'rvire convenient sea
son," or more damage caused by delay,
as iu diseases of the ear. As you value
your hearing, tend to it as soou as the
least failure is noted, wueu it is as easily
cured as other ailments.
Maggie Barbick, Etna, Pa., had a most
agonizing pain in her right ear, the result
of an old neglected trouble causing a very
large polypus to fill the ear tightly. She
consulted Dr. Sadler, ml Penn Avenue,
whose skill in diseases of the ear enables
him to secure satisfactory results iu every
case. After ramoving the growth nis
treitment removed all infi tmmation ;
stopped all discharge and offensive odor.
Such c.is os, neglected, lead to destruction
of the Utiles in the ear, iullammatiou of
the brain, and death.

Dana and the Generals before Vickbnrg.
In view of the late Charles A. Dana s
exceptional gia for expressing his opin
ion of individual men freely and explicit
ly, there will be much curiosity to see the
Iteeeinber number of McClure's Maga
zine, wherein, as the publishers announce
we are to have Mr. Dana's judgment on
the generals in Grant's army before
Vickslairg. These judgments were form
ed immediately iu the lijld, and mist of
tbem were originally writton therefrom,
iu private letters to Secretary Stanton.
It is safe to prophesy that whatever else
they may be, they are such as to leave
tli 3 reader in no doubt as to their import.
Mr. Dana always called things by their
simplest names and he was not needless
ly cousiderate of personal sensibilities.
The Children's Sapper.
Now that the winter season is coming
on, says Harper's Bazar, the cbildreu
will miss the berries aud fresh fruits that
in the summer varied the monotony of
their simple nursery supper. For this
reason the mother niust give a little
thought to the matter of variety in the
menu, that the little ones do not weary
of bread and milk and cease to enjoy
their evening meat. It is easy, by a little
forethought, to plan simple yet agreeable
surprises. One night let a disli of rice
boiled plain and dry be served with
sugar ar.d cream; on another, the bread
may be accompanied by applesauce or
plaiu fruit jelly. Tomato toast is always
enjoyed, as is its nar relative cream
toast. Toasted crackers sprinkled with
salt and soaked in warm milk are appe
tizing, aud arrowroot or tapioca jelly is
considered a treat.
