The lkton Sunday Herald of March 29. h published a (wo column illustrated riide descriptive of the lormal transfer or command of the Navy Yard at that J pUc-e from Rar Admiral Howisoo to i Commodore 'now Rear Admirali Pick ing, from which we take the following extracts, which will lie read with interest by Admiral Picking's many Somerset friends: With all tbo pomp and dignity due an officer of his rank. Rear Admiral Henry Lycurgus Howison was relieved of tbe command of the Cha'rlestown Navy Yard at 10 o'clock yesterday morning by Com modore Henry F. Picking. Ac-Wording to orders issued by Admiral Howison some days ago, tho oiticers of tbe station assmnbled at the command ant's otlice in full dress uniform. There were about fW oliieeisof the stitiou pres eut, both commissioned and warrant officers, and they presented a picturesque and imposing spectacle liued up in frout of the csmimaudant's otli.-e. They wore frock coals, plain blue trousers, c hapeau and plaiu black leather sword belts and swords. The vnsrraut officers wore their service caps. A few minutes before JO o'clock Com modore Picking, the new commandant of the station, sauntered down to Ad miral 11 owi.-x m's olli.-e, acc unpauied by an orderly. He wore bis uniform under his long military cape and bis service cap instead of a chapeau. He was ex pected to arrive at the main gate in the admiral's carriage, but catue through the side gate instead. Tbe marine bat talion, headed by the red-coated band of the station, was drawn up in front of the coinmatidaut's office. It was com mind ed by Col. Percival C. Pope. The men were attired in topcoats, owing to the sharp weather. There were about 2K) men in the baitaliou, and their presence added greatly to tbe spectacle, which was quite imposing. Commodore Picking was received by Admiral Howison. The marine drum corps gave a rullla of tbe drums, the band struck up a march, tho batulion presented arms, and the admiral was B-iluled by the officers of the station. The party then passed intothe command ant's office, where the formality of turn ing over the papers and command look place. The papers beting all ready this formality occupied but little time. A Admiral How isou stepped outside of bis office, the battalion of marines presented arms and the drummers give two ruffl os on the drums, and then the band played a c tuple of bars of a national air. At a signal the two starred (1 ig of Admiral Howison caine down from the mizzen nast of the receiving ship WaVtash and a salute of U gous was fired from the bat tery. After this tbe broad ponnant of Commodore Picking, which was in stops at the truck of mainmast on the Wabash, was broken o it and aluti with 11 guns. As soon as the ceremony was over Ad miral Howiwn, litter sh iking hands and saluting Commodore Picking proceeded immediately to his house, escorted by tbe marine ti-itlaliou. Commodore Picking goes t WMrsg tou at once, as ha is to t-ike the ex tiiiini tion for rear admiral uiidr the new naval personnel bill. I'pou his return, the two-starred li t of his new rank, will 19 flown-on the Wabash, instead of his pen nant, a id will be formally saluted. The ceretn my w.is one of the most picturesque seen at the yar 1 in years, and everything c :nbina 1 to in ke it s;ic cssful and enj tya'jl tit all concerned. The la lios of tne station and h';i !s of d. pirtrnants w.V. ?h-iJ lbs pr jc43 lias wi.h lively interest. Commodore Picking, ths new coin mand.tnt. becomes a rear ad-niral nndr the new personnel bill, an 1 will receive his CJinoiission in a fe.v dys. Ha was formerly in command of tbe receiving ship Wabash at this station, and is well and favorably known to all connected with the station. There is niuoh satisfaction expressed at the yard that he is tbe successor of Ad miral Howison, even though Ad.niral How ison's departure is much regretted. EYE3, EAR, ROSE AN 0 THROAT.

A Pittsburg Sunday paper says the maple sugar season throughout western Pennsylvania has been a disappointment to those engaged iu tbe manufacture of that article, and cites as a reason for the shortness of the crop the rough w inter and tiumerous severe frosts. Tbe writer of the article referred to is. entirely mis taken, as we le-irn after interviewing a number of the largest maple sugar pro ducers in this county that the output has been uuifsually large, and that conditions f ir the manufacture of maple sugar were never more favorable. Many augar camps are still in lively operation and if the present state of weather con tinues for ten days or two weeks the sea son will not close until after that time. A Jefferson township farmer, who is the owner of a modest sugar grove, informs us that he has made iietween tl.O-JO and 7.000 pounds of sugar, and claims that this lias been the best season the sugr manufacturers of the county have expe rienced in a decade. While the gross out put of maple sugar and molasses this sea sou may not break the record it is cer tainly a top notcher and will 62rl :'o Som erset couuty farmers to the extent of at least f iOO.Oou There was a dearth of one gallon and half-gallon tin cans, used for preserving maple molasses, two weeks after the sea sou opened and during the last few weeks dealers in cans have been compelled to turn dow n "rush" orders for thousands, owing to their inability to secure them from the manufacturers. The three larg est dealers in Somerset exhausted their supply f fans two weeks ago, after hiv ing diosed of more than ever before in a single s. a son. Eaaband Cemetery Aaiociatioa.

I am jjst in irouu the firing lice where I had been for two weeks and as the mail goes out on the 21st w i I write a few linss. You Lave doubtless read before this full particulars of the trouble we have been "up against." There Is no telling wheth er it is ail over, but the Filipinos have been licked so badly that one is lead to think that they have had quite enough of "trumpus," as tbey call it. The racket started on the night of the 4th and there are different stories as to what caused it, but from the best infor mation to be had it seems that the insur gents ventured to cross the nickel line of the Nebraska regiment, when they were fired upon. It wn oeriilental, to be sure, but developments all go to show that the insurgents were well prepared for troub le, aud were really itching for it, as it took only one shot to start the ball roll ing all along the twenty miles of Hue we are holding. tur cutp-ofcLs were fired upon at 9:30 and thirty minutes afterwards three compa nies of tho regiment, with Colouel Haw kins at their head, were there and the fighting was on-so far as tbe "Fighting Tenth" was concerned, and it never let tip until we pushed tbe natives so far buck into the country that nothing but a sharpshooter or two have since been seen in lrotit of our line. The first fire on our outposts was so heavy that we could no longer bold them, and fell back. The Colonel then threw out a skirmish line, aud twice during the night the insur gents advanced on it, but the reception they received was so hot that they re treat . Our boys kept them at bay un til morning when tbe Utah battery was requested to throw a few shells among them and stir them up. After this tbe regiment advanced and the insurgents took refuge in a Chinese hospital sur rounded by a solid stone wall. They ev idently thought they were safe here, as a clean level field lay between their posi tion and ours. But they were fooled. The Colonel ordered a charge and the meu gave their war whoop as they started forward on a ruu. The insurgents were completely unnerved, but they stood their ground uu til the boys got close to the wall, w hen they retreated. Our line was established along the road at the hos pital an l a rest was taken until after din ner when another start was made. Im mediately in frout ctf tbe hospital therein a hill sloping gradually upward for at least a half-mile. On the summit of the hill stands a large white church and a cemetery enclosed by a substantial stone wall. II re the insurgents made auotaer stand, and bad tbey bad any but Ameri can soldiers to fight against it would have been impossible to dislodge them. Te I'tah battery, as brave a body of men as ever wore the blue and who understand their busiuess, and the'Fighting Tenth" went after that church, and in less than tin hour it was in their possession with hardly a Filipino, except dead ones, iu sight. Our men went up that hill at a run, yelling and shooting, and when they got within two hundred yards of the place, the Filipiuos tcsok to their heels and scampered off in every direction, apparently almost scared to death at the American method of fighting. Tbey bad been accustomed to fighting with the Spaniards, w hen, after exchanging a few shots, they would lie down for a nap, gel up and fire another shot or two aud then another nap. Our men never gave them a chance to take a nap and Ibis it appears is what they don't understand. Tho position we took in four hours that day is the same p-tsilion the Spaniards se cured after eight years of fighting. Our Uiys were very tired after this all night ami all day fight, but they did their work nobly. There never was a pretlie' fight lhau the one made for possession of this hi!!, especially when it is remembered that our boys had everything against them, position, numbers and knowledge of the c.Kintry. We bad one man killed and seven wounded, but tbe next morn ing we buried forty-two insurgents found at tbe church. I pitied a Lieutenant-Colonel of tbe in surgents, who is killed in tbe fight. When his men started to run he tried so hard to get behind the wails of the church, but it seems that all of our men got a "bead" on him at tbe same instant and jut as he was entering the gate, w here safety would have been his, be fell, shot in several places. Some of the boys rushed up anxious to secure bis sword aa a trophy, but Major Bell, of the Engineer Corps who came up just then, was reorg nized by the dying Filipino officer, who requested the Maj ir to see that his sword, watch, and a few other articles were sent to bis wife. Tbe Major took everything and promised tuf send them as requested. This seemed to give the poor fallow great relief and he asked every body to gii away aud let hi in die in peace. Every man walked away, and it was all over in a few minutes. Afterwards his tstdy was thrown into the trench with tbe other dead. Some of the poor devils presented ter rible sights. Our Springfi-rlds tear a hole in a man that you can see through every time. It is an awful weapon. Some think it inhuman bscause it seldom fails to kill. The Mauser bullet makes a small hole and unless it strikes a vital spot is rarely ever fatal. The Filipinos use a Remiugton with brass bullets, which are dangerous on account of the brass being poisonous, but they do not seem to have many of them. Two of our men were shot through the abdomen, but both are getting along nicaly and will likely re cover. John Kessler, of Ursina, was shot through the thumb, but he was out on tbe firing line agaiu next day. Howard Cromwell went out but was ordered back by tbe Colonel, w ho feared that bis leg would not hold out. Howard folt sore about it, but it was much better for him. The Colonel would not let me go out the night tbe fight started, but I got out in time next morning to see the charge up the hills and got a few shots myself at the Filipinos. I have been oat ever since without a shave and sometimes without enough water to wash. But we are all living well and are enjoying good health. Chickens were plentiful for a time, but the supply is now exhausted and there will not be a chance to get more until another advance is made. Our line is over twenty miles long with hardly more than 12,009 men to bold it, so fiat to advance and thereby lengthen our line would weaken it considerably. I do not think it will be done until reinforce ments arrive. I have suffered uo damage, except tbe loss of a small piece of tbe stock of my gun, which a Mauser carried away, and several good bard stares. I don't care bow often a fellow bears bul lets whizzing ar mnd him be must nat urally feel a little bit nervous. I was sent to the front with ammuni tion, and bad j-ist arrived at tbe cemetery when tbe flab battery was met by a body of insurgents. Three of tbeir men were wounded just in front of tne. A bullet bit tbe wagon beside which I was walk ing, and tbe Lord only knows bow many came close to me. as I was right in tbe line of fire. A little farther on I got among a lot of bamboo shacks that were burning, the bullets whistling over my bead all tbe while. It was the hottest place I ever got iuto. Still farther on we got in line of the insurgent fire on our regiment, but got through all right to the Chinese hospital, where 1 waa told by the Adjutant to keep the ammunition. If I bad my choice I would greatly prefer hereafter to be on the firing Hue to taking charge of ammunition.' A remarkable thing about tbe Filipinos ia that all of tbeir defensive poinfa are churches or cemeteries, all of which have I some sort of a stone wall surrounding i thmn. It seems iiks aa awful thing to shell churches and cemeteries, but it ! the only way you can defeat them. The shells that passed through fi big white church before mentioned unearthed sev eral ak el-tons. A skull and ernes-bone were the first objects to attract my atten tion when I reached the church door. T'be native have liecu led into this trouble by smaller uirn, who held out the promise that several European, na tions would ail them, and Uod only knows what else, but tbey kte tbtir mis take cow.

Dr. Sadler of Pittsburg, tbe most emi nent specialist for diseases of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat will be at the Somerset House, Somerset, Wednesday p. m. April 12 and Thursday April 13. The reputation he enjoys guarantees to all those afflicted with diseases of the shove mentioned kiud, the most thorough scientific treatment possible. Tbs reeadenee of April lit as "Settle Day." No better evidence of tbe decadence of "settle day" can be pointed to than last Saturday. For many years the first day of April was universally accepted by the people of tbis coi'nty, as well as marly other Pennsylvania couuties populated largely by citizens of German extraction, as tbe time when all payments due on real estate and interest bearing accounts should be paid, or satisfactorily "settled." Men from all sections of the county were accustomed to visit Somerset on that day either to pay or receive money, and in a majority of cases thoeo having money to pay brought' it concealed about their clothing, and those w ho received it car ried it in the same way to their homes to hide in some secret place until an in vestment could be found. Twenty years ago, in fact it is safe to say that at a much later date, thousands of Somerset county citizens did not own tbeir farms or homes unincumbered, and it was customary for the parties of both tbe first and second part to come to the county seat when a payment was to lie made, not only to pay and roceive the money due but to see that the receipts were recorded. Hundreds of those having payments to meet were short, pos ibly from f 10 to l0, and their misfortune was tbeopportuiiii.y of the "curbstone" brok er, who made op tbe deficiency when g.iod security was offered at a high rate of Interest. Every public office, store room and lawyer's office was crowded on these occasions by persons earnestly engaged in transacting business, which to them was of great importance. A man who had a payment of $VJ0 to meet might have probably two thirds of tbe amount in gold and silver coin, a few dollars in currency and would be obliged to deal with a "curb-stone" Shy lock to make up tbe sbortuge. Many hours were often consumed in transactions of this charac ter. For some unaccountable reason all transactions of the character mentioned were so arranged that the annual settle ment would come on April 1st. No mat ter whether the sale of a farm was made in June or December, tbe pay ments were invariably arranged so that tbey would become due on that day so it requires no stretch of imagination to believe that l.Oo') or 2,000 out-of town people came to Somerset on April 1st. Sinew then, or to be more correct, since National Banks have become a promi nent factor in the business of the county, new methods have been introduced and the people have not been slow to avail themselves of them. Transactions that formerly consumed hours are now dis posed of w ith a few strokes of the pen, and in hundreds of instances the parties concerned trust their checks to the mails instead of making long and tiresome journeys to the couuty seat. In a very few cases to-day when real estate is con veyed it is stipulated that (be annual pay ments shall fall due on the first day of April; but, on the other hand, payments are invariably made to fall due annu ally after the date of the sale. Instead of April first being generally accepted by the people of the county as "settle day," tbey now look upon the day when money owing by or due them, no matter when it comes, as the time wbeu it shall be paid and receipted for. The crowd on tbe streets last Saturday was very small when compared with the gatberiugs that collected in Somerset on the first day of April in years past, but at the same time tbe volume of business transacted through the two National Batiks was very large. Does Coffee Agree With Yon. If not, drink Grain-O made from pure grains. A lady writes: "The first time I made Oram O I did not like it but after using it for one week nothing would in-' duce me to go back to coffee." It nour ishes and feeds thesystein. The children can drink it freely w ith great benefit. It is the strengthening substauce of pure grains.

Superintendent J. S. Cunniagham, of tbe Berwind-White Coal Mining com pany, Windber, says that all records were broken at the close of the month of March. "The total output of the mines in Jan uary," said Mr. Cunningham, "was 4,000 cars. February was not only a short month, but the mouth of the big blizzard, so that the output was small and there fore not Ut be compared to January. In March, however, tbe big record ia Jan nary was smashed, the output reaching 5,500 cars. But even tbis big record will be smashed, for the capacity of tbe mines is to be gradually increased." Cream iry Promoters. The Pennsylvania State College au thorities are sending out to the farmers of tbe State a warning against "creamery promoters." These promoters endeavor to get the farmers to put their money into these schemes without regard to whether there is sufficient paying field for the new enterprise, and in moat in stances the money put into these enter prises is eventually sunk. The expert of tbe Slate College declares: "la order for a creamery association to be suoess ful, it is neecsry, abjveall thingt, to have the milk from three hundred to five hundred cows guaranteed to tbe cream ery for nine morths in the year. A creamery to band'e this amount of milk can be built r.od ei ilppel for from f 1.8J3 to S2,20f. The price usually asked by, promorars is from $2,700 to $t,A " It would be well forf irmsrs to give heed to this advice and before going into these schemes commnnioate witb the State College or the Diiry Division of ths Ag ricultural Department at Washington, from whom they otn get desired an I much valuable information, which may save them money.

Statler and Tomb of the Johns town board of health visited Hooversvilie Friday for the purpose of investigating tbe alleged smallpox casee there. The Johnstown Democrat says: "They found one very serious case, aud half a dozen mild ones. The diseaso is rampant in the borne of Samuel Gindlesperger, where six mild cases exist. Peter Buyer is in a very serious condition. Dr. l'.ar lott of Hooversvilie, who is attending physician, diagnosed tbe case as small pox aud tbe bouses are placarded and bung witb red Hags. The town authori ties are exercising every precaution to prevent the spread of the disease. Tbe council met a few nights ago and ap pointed the following board of health : Dr. L C Barlott, president; John I lamer, secretary ;E. K. Ober, A. L. Livingston and Hiram J. Meyers. J. W. Stauton is the health officer. Br.ye,-, the must seri ous case, is a mass of black scabs and pit marks are already visible." County Medical Inspector Dr. Henry Garey, of Berlin, spent several days last week in Ogle township investigating tbe alleged smallpox cases In that district. He reports that be found tbe Seese fami ly the father aud nine children all down with some kind of a skin disease, but be does not believe they are suffering from smallpox. The Doctor made ar rangements, however, to have the house quarantined. On the occasion of a former visit to Ogle townsip the Doctor submitted a report to tbe State Board of Health and was directed to make another Investigation, as the officers of that body did not coincide witb bis diagnosis. He now says that the State Board is satisfied with the diagnosis he made. The Doc-tor visited Hooversvilie Saturday. There appear to lie no doubt that there are sev eral well-defined cases of smallpox in that town. Fntare of ths Bicycle. It is agreed by all bicycle manufacturers that tb.

At tbe regular meeting of Council held Thursday evening, bills for fuel, police service, engineer at water works an 1 extra labor at water works were ap proved. President Frease appointed the follow ing committees : Water Messrs. Welfiey, Ixive and Kifer. Streets Messrs. Ruppel, Scull and Ogle. Finance Messrs. Scull, Wellloy and Ruppel. Purchasing Messrs. Ogle, Love and Kifer. Tbe second important step looking toward tbe construction of a system of public sewers was taken Friday after noon at a special meeting of the Council, when by a unanimous vote of all the proposition of Mr. James S. Haring, of Pittsburg, to devise a sewer system and superintend the construction of tbe same, and to establish borough grade lines, was accepted. Mr. Haring was one of ten or twelve engineers who submitted propos als for tbis work, and while his bid was neither the highest or lowest. Council deemed it prudent under all the circum stances to award him the contract. Mr. Haring isa sanitary engineer of large ex perience ami comes highly recommended by municipalities for which be has done work similar to what he will be expected to do here. He will probably come to Somerset Ibis week and it ia expected that be will begin the preliminary survey at an early day. The members of Coun cil are determined to piuh tbe work to completion as rapidly as possible. Her Experience.
