The application of Samuel Peter Mey
erstwice convicted of murder in the
first degree for a now trial was refusod
by the Court Thursday morning, aud im
mediately thereafter sentence of death
was twice imposed npon the doomed
man, first for the killing of Michael Car
ney and afterward for the killing of John
Let hart.
Court convened at 8:30 o'clock. Imme
diately after taking bis seat on the bench
Judge Longenecker announced that the
Court, after carefully considering the ar
gument of defendant' attorneys for a
new trial, had arrived at the conclusion
that the prisoner bad been fairly tried
and fairly convicted and that no suffi
cient reason having been offered for a re
trial the application was therefore denied.
District Attorney Meyers made a for
mal motion that sentence be 1 -n posed.
"You can stand np," said Judge Long
enecker, addressing the prisoner. Mey
ers sprang to his feet. Great beads of
perspiration appeared on his brow and
trickled down bis cheeks His legs
were unsteady and be shifted the weight
of bis body from one foot to the other.
while bis bands moved convulsively, as
though grasping for support.
"Have you anything to say why sen
tence of death should not be imposed?
inquired His Honor.
Yes sir;" replied the defendant.
"There are a great many things I would
like to say to your honors before I am
sentenced to drop through that trap over
there (referring to the death trap in the
county prison which has been in view of
the prisoner ever since bis incarceration
last September), but I am too weak to
stand and wish you. would let me talk
from a chair."
Judge Longenecker told the defendant
be could sit down, when Meyers dropped
into a chair and placed bis feet on oue di
rectly in front of him, and facing the
bench.
"It will take me a good while be con
tinued, "as I would like to go over all of
tbe testimony given against me and
point out where it was not true. It is
hard to think that my old daddy would
testify in that way against me." Here
Judtte Longenecker interrupted the pris
oner, stating that the Court was willing
to bear anything be bad to say vrby sen
tence should not bs imposed, but was un
willing to enter into a discussion of the
evidence adduced at the trial.
"Well, it ia all clear to me now," con
tinued Meyers. "After this affair hap
pened I could not remember anything
about it, but it has all come back to me
now." Here be again referred to the
death trap, when Judge Longenecker di
rected Attorney Uolbert to try and im
press upon the defendant that tbe Court
would bear any statement be might wish
to make in regard to why sentence should
uot be imposed.
The defendant made several efforts to
continue bis remarks, but bis sentences
were disconnected and meaningless, and
after a whispered consultation with At
torney Holbert, Meyers announced that
be bad nothing further to say.
Judge Longenecker commanded Mey
ers to stand np and as soon as be arose
proceeded to pronounce sentence of death
in the Carney case. Meyers stood erect
and looked intently Into the sole-nn
countenance of the Judge while the fate
ful words werebeing sp ken. Pausing
only long enough to take a deep breath
Judge Longenecker repeated tbe stereo
typed phrase, condemning the defendaul
to suffer ignominious death for tbe mur
der of John LenharL
When tbe trying ordeal was over Mey
era resumed bis chair and entered into a
conversation with Attorney Holbert.
Mr. Holbert intimated to the Court that
he would appeal to Governor Stone to ap
point a commission of lunacy to inquire
into the mental condition of tbe con
demned roan before the Executive fixes
upon a day for bis execution.
Meyers was lead from the court bouse
by Sheriff Hartzell, tollowea ny two
guards and at 9:30 o'clock the doors of
the county jail closed upon him, perhaps
for the last time forever. The prisoner
was reassigned to tbe ceil be has occn
pied for ten months and when a Hlrald
reporter vbited the Jail a lew hours after
wards he found Meyers playing a game
of checkers with a fellow prisoner.
Kaatoa Ajtigaed for AikUg a Haw Trial
In addition to tbe alleged mental irre
sponsibility of their client counsel for
Meyers urged that he should be grantea
a new trial for the reason that two of the
in mn aiLtine-in tbe Carney case had ex-
j
pressed a conviction "to at tbe detenaant
ought to have been hung, before mey
were called to sit in the case. Theamua-
vitnfnne Zachariah Christner. of Gar
rett, setting forth tbe above fact, was
offered, when Judge Longenecker in
structed Meyers' attorneys to produce
any witnesses they might have at
Wednesday afternoon s session, to cor
roborate tbe statements mads in tbe affi
davit. Wben court re convened Wedne
dty afternoon Zicbariah Christner was
nailed. He testified that he was present
at the May session of Court when Meyers
was convicted, and that before a jury was
o !led to try the defendant for the mur
der of Carney, he heard an unknowu
man remark at tbe dinner table at Solo
mon Lenhart's where two or more jurors
were boarding, that "Meyers ougbt to
be convicted and bung, and that he ought
to have been bung before tbey brought
him over hers" Witness was unable to
name the Jurors who overheard tbe con
versatiou and could not identify them
He also acknowledged that be bad made
a mistake ia asserting that it was a juror
w bo made the remark.
Henry J. Baer and James J. Glessner,
both of whom bad boarded at Lenhart's
and bad afterwards been selected to sit on
tbe jury ia the case against Meyers for
the killing of Carney, testified that some
such remark as had been testified to had
been mads in their presence by a man
named Poorbaugh, but that they had paid
no attention whatever to it.
rr acker on Araaiementt.
Rev. G. E. Hawes. of tbe Braddock V.
P. Church, w ho recently cams from Ore
gon and has a breezy Western style ot
speaking, created qiiite a sensation last
Thursday eveuicg in the annual Conven
tion of tbe Young People's Union of the
Westmoreland United Presbyterian
Chorcb. He said that there were tour
forms of popular amusement iu the world
to-day wine drinking, dancing, eard
playing, aud theatre going but of these
be said he would strike out that of wine
drinking, as be thought tbe members of
the Union did not indulge in anything of
that kind, but on the others be was not
so lenient, and talked very plainly.
He spoke agaiust dancing, and said
that he did not want any person to think
be was iu favor of many other games in
dulged in by some youcg people, as tak
ing for example, the games of forfeits,
where tbe only successful termination of
the game was when some of the girls
taking part were nobsonized by the
young men. Tbe preacher said It was all
ri.ht for boys to have stag dances in the
barn and the girls to dance among them -
selves in their parlors, but the intermin
gling of the sex was the evil of tbe pleasure.
He also spoke of the bad effects that
vaudeville shows had on the young, and
most every one who attended tbem was
convicted of wrongdoing by their own
conscience. lis thought performances
given by Edwin Booth, Mary Anderson,
and Joe Jefferson could be attended w ith-
out any harmful results but it was
usually the other kind that attracted the
people.
The climax came in Rev. Hawes'
sensational speech, however, wben he in
quired for a deck of cards and three of
his brother ministers to assist him in a
game of stud-poker, and, no one coming
to tbe front with the cards he requested
the pastor of the church. Rev. W. K
Fulton, to clear the floor and call tbe
figures for a dance. This brought np no.
response, and he then proposed to have
some of tbe ministers present to get up a
show and give the performance on the
pulpit.

There will soon be 15,000 pamphlet cop
ies of a work prepared at tbe Department
of Agriculture to distribute among the
farmers of the State, the official title of
which is "The Disease and Eueuiiea of
Poultry," but which is better known as
the second edition of tbe famous "Bird

will be paid to Clarence M. Buacb under

be delivered to the Senate and House,
and each member of the Legislature of

Surprising Condoct ef aa Old Well.
Cincinnati Inquirer, July 10th.
The town well which has supplied citi
zens with water for tbe past eighty years
at Flemings burg, Ky., to-day began fill
ing with crude oil. Barrels of tbe oil
have been pumped out and carried away.
and the supply seems to be inexhausti
ble. To-night the town is wild with the
oil fever, snd a movement is on foot to or
ganize a company to develop the well.
The town is brilliantly lighted to-night
hy tbe flames from oil poured in tbe
streets and gutters, and a general celebra
tion is in progress. No signs of oil in this
vicinity have ever been observed before,
and tbe superstitious ones are inclined to
look upon the wonderful phenomenon of
to day as "uncanny." Business men,
however, are jubilant.
Water Tsar Horn Oftoa.
From t he Philade! phia Ledger.
Dr. J. II. Herster, tbe well-known vet
erinarian, says : In this hot weather loo
much stress cannot be laid on the import
ance of watering horses often and always
before feeding. Nothing is so refreshing
to a tired horse as a drink of pure water,
not excepting bis feed. By far the largest
proportion of tbe animal body is composed
of water, and tbe system can not be kept
In a normal condition unless it is supplied
very liberally with this fluid. This need
of a liberal supply of pure water ia no
less great in disease than in health. Too
often wben a horse is a little "off bis feed''
bis water aupply is restricted, adding to
his misery. In any and every disease a
horse will do better rf allowed all tbe
water be wants than if hia aupply ia re
stricted. Do not mistake tbia statement.
It does not mean that a horse should be
allowed to drink a large quantity of water
at any one time. He should be offered a
amall quantity every twenty or thirty
minutes until be baa had all he wants.
Then, If pail of fresh water ia kept
constantly before him be will never take
enough at one time to hurt.
Attorneys claim that the Meyers case
ia without precedent in criminal jun
prudence. Tbe books do not record an
instance where a defendant Has been
twice convicted of first degree murder
and twice sentenced to be legally execu
ted. Unless the Governor shall appoint a
commission to inquire into tbe mental
condition of tbe prisoner, which shall
find him to have been irresponsible for
bis acta, be will be obliged to issue two
death warrant direc-ing tbe Sbena ot
h mimtv to execute Meyers. As a
matter of course only on warrant can be
carried out, and tbe second will have to be
returned to the Court endorsed "Failure
to carry out by reason of tbe death of de
fendant," t
Tbe doable tragedy of which Meyers
was convicted occurred at Garrett, Sep
tember 13, IStt. Carney was assisting i
tbe defendant's father in making some
repairs to a house, the ownership of which
was in dispute between tbe old man ana
bis son, wben tbe defendant shot bim in
tbe back. Lenhart was deputized to as
sist in tbe arrest of tbe murderer and
wben be entered lb) bouse in which
Meyer bad taken refuge, be was shot
down ia bis tracks.
To Incorporate a Baroogb.
Public notice of the iutende! applica
tion for a borough charter must be first
given in at least one newspaper of the
county, for thirty days before the appli
cation is made. Every application of tbe
inhabitants of any town or village to be
com a borough must be in writing and
must be signed by a majority of tbe free
holders residing within the proposed
limit. The signatures of tbe freehold
ers must have been attached to tbe appli
cation "within three months immediately
preceding its presentation to the court.'
The application must be in writing ; must
set forth the name, style or title of tte
proposed borough ; and should conta
a particular description of tbe bounda
ries, exhibiting tbe courses and distances
in words at length, and be accompanied
with a plot or draft of tbe same. A sworn
copy of the published notice should be at
tached to tbe application with an affida
vit that it baa been made not leas than
thirty days before the time of application.
The application must be addressed to
the Court of Quarter Sessions, and after
being filed in the office of tbe clerk should
be presented to the court at tbe regular
term of that court, and by tbe court sent
to tbe grand jury. Tbe grand jury, after
bearing witnesses and counsel, makethei
report to tbe court, after which nothing is
done nntil tbe next term of Q jarter Ses
sions Court, when, if there are no excep-
ti'His, the action of the grand jury may
be confirmed, which would be final, un
less appealed from in twenty days. Ex
ceptions or remonstrances to this confirm
ation may be filed, which may further
delay tbe matter.
Senator Piatt Ebowi How tha Freiidant'i
Hands Wars Tied.
In a lengthy statoiueut issuod Wednes
day uigbt Senator Piatt, of New York,
makes forcible reply to tbe criticism that
has lately been growing more violent
against McKinley in his conduct of tbe
present war. He does not attempt, says
be, to answer "those who are advocating
a policy of cowardice and national dis
honor," but addresses thote who are sp
prebensive that the government is not
taking and has not taken the necessary
measures to crush the insurrection.
The Senator reviews tbe gains of terri
tory and the advances towards friendly
relatious with many towns and islands
that have already been made and reiter
ates the charge that the insurrectionists'
only hope now is iu a reported general
opposition among the American people
to the prosecution of the war, aud a fixed
purpose on tbe part of the political party
about to come into power to withdraw
tbe American army and to recognize the
government of Aguiualdo. "There can
be," be claims, "uo question of the sub
stantial truth and accuracy of this infor
mation. It eomos from too many differ
ent sources and from sources too high aud
honorable iu character to admit of
doubt."
In answer to the complaint that after it
was clear that ou r go ver n m en t wou Id hoi d
the Philippines the President failed to
send su fficieut force to capture tbe islands,
Mr. Piatt calls atteution to thi fact that
under tbe peace protocol the United
States was for a time estopped f:-om send
ing troops. No large force v.aa there
wben the Filipiuos made their first at
tack because our government was re
strained by two circumstances good
faith with Spain and the laws of Congress
under which the army bad been created.
The French Ambassador appeared at the
White House with a proposal to end the
war almost before the American army
had been equipped to take the fiold. In
July. l-, we had sent to the Philippines
nearly twenty thousand men. Commo
dore Dewey had advised the government
that 5,000 would be sullicient. It was
General Miles' opinion that 12,000 were
surely enough, but the Presideut, acting
upon bis own wise judgment, bad dis
patched 20,0i. The only work then ex
pected of them was to fight and defeat
tbe Spaniards at Manila, and at the time
when the President dictated the language
of the peace protocol the Americau army
stood confronting the Spanish intrench-menta.
"And who could then foresee that this
force was not sufficient? A conflict with
the Filipinos was not then anticipated.
Their army, it is true, had been assembled
on the outskirts of Manila. But it was
generally supposed to be a friendly rath
er than a hostile army. Its leaders bad
been ardent with the assurances of their
friendship and coutiJence, They had
proclaimed a republic, to be sure, and
bad asserted a government ; but there
was nothing in the altitude they then as
sumed which could justify the belief that
their giins were going to be aimed at tbe
flag which bad set them free. Even baa
tbe President been at liberty under tbe
terms of the peace protocol to increase
the Philippine army, and even had the
men available for service there been
ready for transportation, no wise coun
sellor would have advised sending them.
Indeed, the very thing that brought on
the conflict with Aguicaldo was the dis
patch of small force intended to take
tbe place of those whose terms of enlist
ment bad expired, and who had already
been brought home."
The dilatorinesa in ratifying the Treaty
of Peace and the protracted tight against
the Armv Bill, in which be says the
Democrat bad tbe hardihood to declare
that tbe troops "wore to be used here and
not in Manila, caused great loss of time
aud opportunity. Then when the bill at
last was passed in unsatisfactory iha(e
be had an unexampled tk. "He bad
at once to reduce an army of Gj.OuO regu
lars to au army of27,M, mustering out
6,000 men ; he had to enlist an equal num
ber ot regulars to take the places of those
mustered out; be bad to organize the
new regulars, to provide transportation
for them to Manila, to transport back the
army then and there, and at tbe same
time, and all tha while, to prosecute the
war. This is what be has been doing
during the last four month. Under tha
terms of the Army Bill ".0o0 regulars
have already been enlisted, and have
taken tbe places of an equal number of
men who have been formally mustered
out. Ten new regiment of volunteers
are now organizing. General Otis bas
been supplied already with 22.0U) regu
lars, having two years of service before
them. And all the while tbe fighting at
Luzon bad been maintained, with tbe re
sult already described in this statement.
What more could be asked or expected?
What possible criticism can be passed
upon the intelligence or ine torosigut
with which these difficult and complicat
ed affairs have been conducted? What,
indeed, can be said, except in warm aud
generous praise both of the Administra
tion at home aud of the army abroad ?"
