How fo p Got its Name.
In a recent issue of the Johnstown Tril
bune there was a communication from
Si-alp Level, signed "Citizen," giving a
very interesting miniuit of the town and
some of its early history. But there were
a few things in that oomiuuiiration that
w ere not quite right, one iu particular, as
to how tho town was named, says a writer
in the Johnstown Desnocr.it. Continuing
he says :
Jacob Eash was the founder of the town ;
and if we can go by what the very oldest
citizens say, the place got its name at a
log-rolling. Jacob Eash lived in a log
cabin on the ground w here the town is
situated, and in order to have a piece of
land cleared otT, invited bis mountain
neighbors to a log-rolling or, in other
words, to a frolic; and while some of the
men were cutting down trees, and some
cutting them up and piling them in heaps,
others were culling the nnderbrush away.
Mr. Eash came around with a liottle of
moonshine, telling thegrubliers to "scalp
them level," or, close to the ground ; and
from that day to this the tow n has gone
by the name of S-alp Level.
Scalp has become famous for several
reasons, particularly in the art world.
Meu like George lietzel, Joseph R. Wood
well, John W. Itrntty, Byrou Wall and
Roger Davis have given it a name that
will not Ik) forgotten; and it is said there
isn't a State in the Union where you
won't find s picture that was painted
along the Big aud Little Paint creeks.
Then Scalp is a noted place for the
mighty hunters aud for the game killed
in years gone by. Among the early hunt
ers may be named Henry Troyer, Jacob
Murphy, Peter Hochstetler, John Mish
ler, Conrad and Jacob Seese, while in late
years Joseph Orris, Conrad Kunkle and
Gillian Secse have done their share in
bringing down the game which abounds
in the mountains surrounding the town.
A country store, wjth the postolllce, a
tannery, au up and down water sawmill,
and the sound of the blacksmith's anvil,
w ith possibly half a dozen weekly news
papers, made up the town; and, as "Citi
zen" says, everylssly lived in quiet and
peace.
To-day all this is changed. The sound
of the railroad engine, the blowing of
steam whistles, the steady tread of min
ers to and from their work, the stores and
shops, the hotels, the drays, wagons and
beercaits, aud 3u0 daily newspapers, lend
life to the old resort.

WASTED WO XISTAXE AD fe
ll ride aad Groos Walked 28 Kile Tar a
Xarriag Licaaa.
The old maxim, "it takes all kind of
people to make a wrld," was strikingly
illustrated on Wednesday, when David
B. Nunneniaker and Catharine Fink ap
peared Icfoie -Register and rttsrder
Cover and asked for a marriage license.
The would-be-groom gave his age as 39
years, w bilelbe bride-to-be acknow ledg
ed to 27 summers. Nunneinakcr ia a
sparsely buiit man, with hair premature
ly grey and the Hushed cheek that be
tokens bard work in the mountain air.
The bride, short of stature, tsit of spacious
girth and :jn poii rids solid Slesh and I pones,
smiled approvingly when Mr. Nunne
niaker boldly made his business known
and tosxnd m silver dollar on the table,
after the license waa properly filled up
and handed to him. "We live in Ogle
township," said the happy swain, "and
when we made up car minds to get mar
ried we thought it best to come right to
the court bouse so that there would be no
mistakes made. We walked all the way
from home, a distance of some 2& miles,
most of the way in our bare feet, but we
got here at last, and now we want to be
married."
Several young attorneys who were, oc
cupied in the vault of the Recorder's
office overheard the remarks quoted
aliove, and one of them telephoned for
Esquiro Oliver Knepper, while the other
sent word to a number of the older at
torneys and court house officials to attend
the nuptials. Meanwhile it transpired
that the couple when they arrived in
town had only 59 cents between them,
aud when they made their mission known
to an old time friend who knew that the
license would cost fl, he contributed SO
cents to their joint purse. The guests at
the wedding contributed nickles, dimes
aud quarters until Mr. Nunueuiaker waa
bio to count out f 1.01, which be tendered
to the officiating Justice of the Peace.
Squire Knepper modestly took 1 cer.i for
his fee, remarking in a reassuring tone
to the groom that he could not legally
take a larger sum. One of the more
thoughtful among the wedding guests.
realizing that the couple could not make
the overland journey to their home with
out walking the entire night, telephoned
Clerk Colhom of the Poor Board for a
permit for the pair to pass the night at
the County Home. Mr. Col born prompt
ly supplied the necessary paper aud just
as the shades of night began to fall Mr.
and Mrs. Nunneinaker started on their
journey o two miles to the Home. When
they reached that institution they were
warmly greeted by the steward and hi
ife, who had been notified of their com
ing. Bread and meat and sweets were
placed before them, and so grateful did
tbey appear for the entertainment that
they were invited to tarry and rest at the
Home until Friday morning. Thursday,
lhe matron of the home built an elsJiorate
gown of crimson hue, which she present
ed to the bride, and which that blushing
lady wore with evident pride wheu she
reappeared upon the streets of Somerset
Friday noon. Before leaving for the.r
home Mr. aud Mrs. Nuunemaker return
ed to the office of the Register and Re
corder to inquire if he was quite sure
that no mistake bad been made and that
no legal complications alfecting the valid
ity of their marriage would be raised.
When assured by that official that the
knot had been legally tied, the bride
lieamed upon her bifsbaud, and as they
passed through the open door drolly ob
served, "if I get tired I'll make you carry
me."
Tha Oleomargarine Decision.
Major Levi Wells, tho state dairy and
food commissioner, places the following
construction upou the recent decision of
the supreme court affecting the sale of
oleomargarine iu this state.
"In the presouceof an opinion of the at
torney general I have beeu otherwise le
gally advised that the case simply decided
that a dealer or manufacturer of another
state, or his agent, may sell in this state
oleo in the original package, aud that in
so far as the law prohibits a foreign deal
er, or his agent, from selling iu the origi
nal package it is unconstitutional. This
was the only question presented by the
farts of the case, and the only one decid
ed. The law is presumed to be constitu
tional iu all other respects, and the de
partment, therefore, will continue in its
effort to enforce against all persons w ho
deal in oleo except foreign dealers aud
their agents who sell iu the original
package."
