necessary by our supercilious critic even

A silly individual takes exceptions to
the Republican meeting advertised to be
held in this place to-morrow evening
nnder the auspices of the Lincoln Club.
In addition to the contempt felt for his
political methods by all honest Republi
cans, be has now made biinseir tbe object
of their ridicule.
The Lincoln Club had arranged to hold
a meeting here during tbe month of Sep
tember, but when it was learned that
Lieutenant Colonel Barnett, who had
promised to be present, would be unable
to apeak at that time on account of sick
ness, the meeting was postponed. On
October 21st Colonel Barnett, United
States Senator Penrose, Attorney General
Elkin and Senator McCarreH were in
vited to come to Somerset and address a
Republican meeting to be held nnder tbe
auspices of the Lincoln Club, nd they
promptly accepted.
It is presumed that tbe fact that the
distinguished gentlemen named bad con
sented to come here was made known to
the Chairman of the Republican State
Committee, who inadvertently attached
his signature to a communication ad
dressed to "My Dear Chairman," and
the latter straightway advertised tbe
quartette of "spellbinders" to address a
meeting at Meyersdale for the same
evening.
Tbe Lincoln Club disclaims all respon
sibility for any communications alleg
ing to bave been signed by tbe Chairman
of the Republican State Committee ex
changed with "My Dear Chairman," but
it will cordially welcome every person
who attends tbe Republican meeting to
be held in Somerset to-irorrow night.
A brilliant display of fireworks will be
given immediately preceding and at tbe
close of the meeting. Three or four ex
cellent bands of music will be in attend
ance and a good time is assured for all
who attend.
Three years ago one of the largest dele
gations visiting Canton for tbe purpose of
aiding the campaign of the Republican
candidate for President made tbe pil
grimage from this county under the
auspices of tbe Lincoln Club. Six
months later, when William McKinley
was inaugurated President of the United
States, tbe Lincoln Club sent a delegation
to the National Capital to participate in
tbe inaugural ceremonies, and during tbe
following summer, upon the occasion of
tbe President's visit to this town, tbe
Lincoln Club tendered bim one of the
most notable serenades and receptions
in the aunals of tbe county. Tbe Repub
lican meeting to-morrow night will add
another chapter to tbe Club's record for
true Republicanism and loyalty to the
t tndard-bearers of the Republican party.
Tbe outlook for an enthusiastic Re
publican rally is inoit encouraging,
and all wbo can do so should attend.
The Club has arranged for pecial ex
cursion trains from Salisbury Meyers
dale, Berlin and Paint Creek, at one
fare for tbe round trip.
Following is the train arrangement
for the excursion trains :

Want a Franchise for a Trolley Lias.
Mr. W. A. Scott, of Pittsburg, appeared
before town council Thursday evening
and asked that an ordinance be passed
giving a company represented by him a
franchise to construct an electric street
railroad from the Baltimore A Ohio rail
road station to the west line of the bor
ough. The streets it ia proposed to util
ize for street railway purposes are Patriot
from the railroad station to the intersec
tion of Main Cross, Main Cross to the
public square, and thence out Main street
to tbe borough line. A motion to defer
action was adopted after considerable de
bate. Mr. Scott is a director and the
principal promoter of the Highland Inn.
The ordinance provides that the railway
empany shall bave trolley cars running
on or before July 1, lfW, and that the
roadbed between the tracks and one foot
on either side shall be maintained ia good
audition by tbe traction company. In
advocating tbe adoption of the ordinance
Mr. Scott said that it was proposed to
have cars pass the public square at inter
vals of every seven or eight minutes dur
ing eighteen hours of the day during the
months of June, July, August, Septem
ber and Ojtobsr, and that the line would
be operated sixteen hoar daily during
the ratn&in'.ng months of tbs year.

RAIDED "Sill" PRUTS' STILL.
Old Xoeaakiner Zicapcd, bat Two sf His
Confederates Were Captnrtd.
BAD AIX OF EETEKTJI OrFICE&S.
After being bunted like a wild bcant
for eight years old "Bill" PriUs, the lead
er of tbe baud of luconMb ners w bo ir ftt
tbe Laurel Hill Mountain in tnis and
Fayette counties, was Thursday morning
surprised by a posse of revenue officers
in charge of Deputy -Collector Dixon,
and, although old "Bill" is still at liber
ty, two member of tbe band were cap
tured and areiu the Uniontown jail.
Deputy Collector Dixon, Deputy Unlttd
States Marshall Frank Campbell, of
Uniontown, and police officer Custer, of
Rockwood, accompanied by guide, who
is said to know every path aud hi ding
place in the Lanrel Hill, left Rockwood
at a late hour Wednesday night for the
haunta of the luooushinera,
Reaching a point above Trent they left
their rig and followed the guide through
the woods to a rude shanty about two
hundred yards from tbe Pritts residence.
Entering the building tbe revenue officers
patiently waited for tbe coming' of tbe
dawn and tbe return of the rroonshiners.
A smouldering fire under a copper ves
sel, in which the native mountain rye is
reduced to the fiery liquid so greatly
relished by tbe moonshiners, told them
that the manufacture of illicit whisky
had recently been in progress, while sev
eral crude wooden vessels filled with
warm mash and a generous supply of rye
chop, bespoke an early visit from the
crafty old mountaineer. The atmosphere
was so heavy with smoke from recent
mountain fires that the revenue officers
could see only a few rods from tbe moon
shine still, but about eight o'clock their
vigilance was rewarded when they saw
old "Bill" accompanied by his son Henry
and a mountaineer, named Vay, wend
ing their way up from tbe Pritts home.
Just as they reached tbe front door the
officers rusbedout and the three moon
shiners stood for a moment each looking
into the barrel of a revolver. Dickson
and Custer took the two young men in
charge, neither one resisting, but wily
old "BUI" got away In a manner that real
ly surprised tbe officers. Campbell made
a move to lay hands on him, but "Bill"
swiftly jumped to one side and started to
run at the top of bis speed. Campbell
emptied bis revolver at the retreating
figure of tbe aged moonshiner, but ap
parently without effect, since he disap
peared in the thick undergrowth and was
lost to view. Campbell was evidently
fearful of tbe outcome of a hand to hand
struggle with old "Bill," since he could
have easily outstripped him in a race.
The officers then destroyed 10 bushels
mash, tbe still, a barrel of highwines or
mountain dew, and immediately left with
the two men for Rockwood. The officers
claim that they were fearful that old "Bill
would summon the members of the band
and release the prisoners before tbey
couldf et out of the mountain, unless they
moved promptly.
Pritts' still was raid! about a year ao,
but it seems that be resumed business
immediately after the departure of the
raiding officers, and has sioce been mak
ing moonshine on a larger scale than
ever before.
Those who know old "Bill" best say
that he has a "charmed life," and in con
firmation of their statements cite tbe
numerous ineffectual attempts that have
been made to capture him. After the
murder of "Yony" Hochatetler a price
was set ou PriUs' head ; one of Hocbslet
ler's sons took a crack at him with a rifle,
shattering his left arm, and revenue
officials have made innumerable unsuc
cessful attempts to capture him.
A gentleman who recently visited
Pritts says that he is a much maligued
man. He claims that Pritts may engage
iu the manufacture of moonshine at in
tervals, but if he does it is only for the
purpose of supplying tbe cravings of bim-
dlf and a certain class of denizens of the
mountains for the contraband liquid, and
that the old man has been driven to the
necessity of making moonshine entirely
on account of his inability to pay the
price of taxable whisky. He declares
that Pritts looks after his farm as care
fully as any man in tbe neighborhood, ia
as hospitable to strangers as the average
farmer, and is a good citizen in every
retpect outside of bis engaging in the
manufacture of mountain dew. The
gentleman quoted laughs at tbe many
stories current in regard to the old man
ging armed at all times and aaya he
doubts If "Bill" ever shjt a gun off ten
times ia bis life. He says, however, that
Prills is a stranger to fear, being possess
ed of great physical strength, but that he
has never been known to go armed.
Pritts is about sixty-five year of age.
and It Is said that ho has never visited
Somerset or Connellsville, tbe two largest
towns easily accessible to hi home, more
than two or three times in his life.

CHARGED WITH
GLESSNER'S MURDER.
Alexander Gerhart and Bufo Diveley Ar
retted ea Smpioion ef having Had
Hand la th Foal Deed.
F&IS05XBS CLAIM THXY GAJT FB0TZ
AS AilBL
Two arrests have been made for the
murder of Augustus Glessner, on Satur
day night, October 21st, near Berlin.
Alexauder Gerhart was taken into cus
tody and brought to jail at midnight
last Wednesday by Constable Sidle.
Rufus Diveley was arrested Siturday
by Constable King, at Rockwood, and
was brought here and placed In jail the
same afternoon.
A Pittsburg detective has been work
ing up tbe case since Tuesday a week,
but be refused to divulge anything that
he has learned connecting tbe two sus
pected men with the foul murder of Gless
ner, and it is probable that he will not
show his band nntil called upon to do to
by the cour. Tbe detective is working
nnder tbe direction of District Attorney
Meyers, and bas held a number of pri
vate Intel views with that official.
It is said that Gerhart, wbo is a miner
out of employment, made a number of
contradictory statements In regard to his
whereabouts on the night of tbe tragedy,
claiming, when first questioned, that he
was at bis boarding-house from &30
o'clock Saturday evening until a late
hour Sunday morning. To other parties
he is alleged to have stated that be went
to his boarding-place about 8 o'clock on
the night of the murder, but returned to
one of the hotels between nine and 10
o'clock, where he remained for only a
short time, when he returned to his board
ing house. It is claimed that Gerhart's
actions on the night of the murder were
of such a suspicious character as to justify
his arrest. He la said to have watched
Gleesner closely while tbe latter was
drinking and showing hi money at a ho
tel bar, and that he made damaging ad
missions after it was discovered that
Glexsner had been murdered.
Gerhart took his arrest very coolly, and
declares-that he will have no trouble to
prove a complete alibi. Mr. and Mrs. J.
Robert Pbilson, with whom he boarded,
it is understood, will both testify that he
was at home and in bed at the hour the
murder is alleged j have been com
mitted. Gerhart is a fine-looking young man,
about thirty-two years of age. He work
ed in tbe mines near Berlin up until a boot
two months ago, since when be bas been
without visible means of support. He
says that his father is a prominent farmer
living near Uoutzdale, Clearfield county.
He wrote to his father immediately after
be was brought to jail. Suuday morning
two young men, strangers, who said
they were hi brothers, called at the jail
to soe him. Gerhart has employed
an attorniy to look after bis case,
and when the detective undertook to
"pump" him, Sunday evening, be flatly
refuxed to talk about tbe Glessner mur
der, saying that he had placed his case in
tbe hands of his lawyer. He also declin
ed to make any statement concerning bis
arrest for publication, further than to
state that bia Innocence would be estab
lihhed at the proper time.
After lodging Gerhart in Jail Wednes
day night. Constable Sidel and a young
man named Ream, who accompanied him
from Berlin to Somerset, left for Greens-
burg, driving across tbe mountain. They
had a warrant for the arrest of Rufus
Diveley, and expected to capture bim
near that place. Diveley left Berlin Tues
day, giving out that be was going to
Westmoreland county. It seeing that he
stopped off Rockwood, where he drank
repeatedly at tbe different hotel bars,
treating bis acquaintances agaia and
again. It la claimed that he showed at
least nineteen dollars to Rockwood par
ties, w bereas bis wife la said to have stated
that she bad to give him money enough
to pay bis way from Garrott to Rockwood
on the train. When he was arrested and
searched, a half-hour after he was placed
in the Rockwood lock-up, a bloody pock
et handkerchief was found in one of his
pockets. Dively claims that his n.iee had
been bleeding, and that the handkerchief
became stained in that way. He denies
that he had more than four dollars when
he reached Rockwood, and say that be did
not present bills of either five or ten dol
lar denominations to be changed, as la
charged.
An unconfirmed rumor i to tbe effect
that the murdered man received a f 10
gold certificate from a party owing him
on the day preceding the murder. Gless
ner had never before seen currency of
that description and la reported to have
said that be believed it to bs a counter
feit note, whereupon the party tendering
tbe money made a memorandum of the
number of the certificate in order that be
could identify it in ease Glessner return
ed it. The detective ia trying to trace
tbe $10 gold certificate to Dively, as he is
said to bave had a bill of that denomi
nation at Rockwood.
Another report in circulation ia to the
effect that a conversatioa between Dive
ley and Gerhart, when the former ao
eased tbe latter with hiving "lead him
into tbe trouble," was overheard by par
ties living ln Berlin.
Diveley is a son of the late Charles
Diveley, of Berlin, and is well-connected.
Ha is about twenty -three year of age.
aid a Ugar-roller by occupation. He is
married. His wife, it ia understood, will
testify that he was at home on tbe night
of the murder. Dively has never been
0 larged with a criminal offense before.
The atmosphere over about Berlin
has been alive with rumors ever since
Glessner was murdered, and the tongue
of gossip has connected the names
of a good many people with tbe
c.-itne. Tbe officers in charge of tbe case
have ran down a number of supposed
clews during the week without result.
One rumor bad it that the paitiea who
had removed the paling from the Bru ba
ker fence bad been aeen and recognised ;
and another was to thi effect thit the de
tective bad picked np the half of a brok
en button on tbe road where G tenners
body was found, which corresponded
with a half-button on the coat worn by a
suspected party. Both these rumors are
without fou ndation ; the button fow nd was
torn from tbe clothing of the murdered
man.
Tbe paling which, it was first believ
ed, would figure conspicuously in solv
ing tbe mystery of Glass ners mur
der, was not the instrument that caused
the unfortunate victim's death. It ia
claimed that the deadly blow was struck
with a sand-bag or black jack, and that
the skin on the victim's bead was not
broken, as it would have been had he
been struck with a paling. A braise on
the dead man's left wrist and a gash cut
over his right eye may, however, have
been the result of strokes from a paling.
It is earnestly hoped that tbe guilty
parties will be apprehended and brought
to Justice. Glemner s murderers are
believed to be members of an organised
band of highwaymen, who have held up
and robbed a number of parties near tbe
scene of his death, but who have always
managed to successfully cover op the J"
tracks.
