bolds that tbe new law repeals tbe old
distinction between tavern and res
taurant licenses, and tbat an appli
cant for one of tbe lat'er must pay
the full lee ot $3OO, though tbe pay
ment of such a lee and tbe receipt of
a license tberefor does not grant the
same privileges as to the sale of s»pir
ituous if liquors as tbe application had
been lor a tavern license.

marked men entered the hut
of Heurv Merritts, au old woodman
living in Henderson township, Hn'it
ingdon county, cue morning last
week and demanded where his sup
posed wealth was concealed. For
several years Merritts has beeD en
gaged in tbe lumbering business and
bad accumulated 5-4000. His assail
ants bound and gagged him, and fail
ing in their efforts to extort a confes
sion by these means, thwv held his
bare feet to the tire and otherwise
maltreated him in a most shocking
manner. Finally becoming uncon
scious, his assailants left him and
searched tbe hut for his bidden
wealth. Beneath the flooring they
found over $l5OO ia a floor sack But
this was all they secured,as the other
money belonging to him was hiddeu
a short distance from tbe house. Mer
rittp was fouud still bouud and gag- j
ged, and, owing to his advanced
years, it is thought the maltreatment
be received will result in bis death.

In Perry township, Armstrong Co.,
Isaac B Steele, aged 82 years, we a
buried last Saturday. He was the
owner of the celebrated Steele farm,
which produced several hundred
thousand barrels of oil. He had no
coufidence in banks and hoarded bis
money, about $60,000 in currency.
Becoming mouldy in bis safe, he
tpread it in one of his meadows to
dry. The singular incident wac giv
en widespread publication,and oil re
gion burglars twice attempted to rob
his safe. Being a giant in strength
and fearless, hs defended his property
aud drove the robbers away.
Early last Saturday morning four
marked men called at the bouse of
Jonathan Sweigert, a well-to-do far
mer who lives iu Burrel township,
near tbe village of Cochran's Mills,
Armstrong county,aod called him out
of the house, when he was soized and
bound. The party then entered tbe
bouse and urou.-ed Mrs Sweigert and
demanded to be shown where they
kept their money concealed. Swei
gert bad esrlv iu the week beeu to
Pittsburg, where he had turned some
bank stock into money, which was
supposed to be in the house. Failing
in their efforts to «et either Sweigert
or his wife to make known where the
money was, tbev tied Mrs Sweigert
and her husband in chairs, removed
the gags from tbe mouths of both
prisoners and beat them unmercifully.
After her husband was rendered al
most unconscious Mrs Sweigert told
the outlaws that all tbe money bad
been deposited iu a bank at Leech
burg. She turned over the cash on
band and the outlaws left. Sweigert's
injuries are not considered fatal, but
being almost 70 years old, tbe shock
I to his Bystem is very great.

live thousand dollars, aad undergo
j imprisonment in the couuty jail of
not less than three months, nor more
thau twelve months
"Auy person having license, who
I shall hereafter be convicted of viola
i ting any of the provisions of the li

Physicians Liable To A Fine.
From Pittsburg Dispatch of Feb. B.J
A provision of the Brooks liquor
license law which has been generally
overlooked, will prove of considerable
interest to the medical profession,and
will tend to prevent a too generous
issue of prescriptions for spirits fru
menti in districts where the exhilara
ting juice of the corn is hard to ob
tain. The section provides that any
physician who shall willfully pre
scribe auy intoxicating liquor, as a
beverage, to persons of known intem
perate habits,shall be guilty of a mis
demeanor, and upon conviction,shall
be liable to a fine of not less than $5O
nor more than $5OO, and undergo an
imprisonment of not less than 20 nor
more than 90 days. This provision
is the first attempt ever made to cur
tail the privilege of a physician to
choose medicine for his patieuts, and
attorneys geiierally believe it would
be very difli ult to secure a conviction
as in caseß of suffering from the ex
cessive use of liquor,the homeopathic
principle that "like cures like" is
generally believed in, and following
that principle, the old toper finds it
absolutely Deccssary to take a "hair
of the dog that bit him" the morning
after a debauch, while physician# in
variably endeavor to ward off attacks
of mania-a-potu by prescribing whis
ky in limited quantities It would
tbua be difficult to determine whether
tbe prescription was taken as a bev
erage or medicinally, as it could not
be proven by the size of tbe * dose, as
many barkeepers will testify, with
tears in their eyes, that the men who
take their medicine with the most
regularity genarally take the largest
drinks.
Libby Prison To Be Moved.
CHICAGO, Feb. 5.—A company has
been formed with a capital of $4OO,
000 to bring to Chicago the old Li')
by Prison building in Richmond.
The building ia now the property of
the Southern Fertilizing Company
and can beboogbt for 4123,000. The
purchase includes not only the origi
nal store of Libby <t Son, but tbe
building adjoining, which comprises
the entire prison.
The building will be taken down
in sections, every nail will be careful
ly withdrawn, each beam, door and
window will be set in its exact posi
tion. Even the mortar will be used
in rebuilding The enterprise will
cost, it is estimated, something like
$200,000 Tiiis memorable building
it is proposed to surround with an
other building 200x150. It will hare
a glass roof after tbe fashion of the
big cyclorama buildings. The idea
is to make a perfect museum of the
late war, containing elaborate collec
tions of relics and panoramic views
of engagements that took place dur
ing the rebellion. Toe contract for
the building aud property will be
closed this month, and the managers
hope to have the original chandlery
shop of Libby & Son on exhibition
soon
The buildiDg is puctically unchang
ed since war times and is as solid as
ever notwithstanding its advanced
age. It ib a nutdy ftructu'e, with
walis twenty inches thick. The
checker-boards cut by beUnion priso
ners are Htili to be Been on the solid
oak planks, while its interior is en
tirely covered with th«) names of the
men who were inmates during the
terrible struggle. While th« building
is being razod every bit of material
will be numbered ami photographs
will be taken at every stag<i o( the
work as a guido to the workinea iu
rebuilding.
Remarkable, But True.
On Saturday evening, Jan. 23, last,
Conductor Ho wen's freight train,
drawn by engine 751, Kngineer P. 11.
Masterson, while coming east pulled
in at the Conemaugh middle siding
iu order to allow fast line west to
pass. While the train was on the
siding the car inspectors passed over
it and made the customary examina
tion. When they camo back to the
conductor one of them informed him
that he was short one truck. Mr.
Bowen could not understand this,but
on making a second examination it
was found that a loaded box car in
the middle of the train was minus a
truck, and was being held up only by
the coupling which was attached to
the other car A further search was
made for the truck, but without suc
cess that night. Next morning it was
found between the two main track*
near the Johnatown bridge. The
train bad gone several miles without
it. it had jumped out from under the
car and bad struck the ground in such
a manner as to allow trains,both east
and west, to pass it without molesta
tion. This is a remarkable story,but

Obituary.
ALLEGHENY Towssair.
D ed — Jmuary, 15tb, ISSS, at his
residence in Allegheny tp, Aran thus
11 Cirnahan, in tbe 53d year bis age
Mr. Carnahaa was a member of the
Presbyterian church for twenty-five
years, part of this time a rating El
der. He had beeu for five years a
«reat sufferer which be endured with
Christian patience. His faith was so
firmly fixed in Jesus that he believed
that his nPQctions, though] at times
hevere, were l'gbt compared with
tbe eternal stlory that was in store
for him in tbe mansions of rest. Tbe
deceased leaves a wife, two daugh
ters, a widowed mother, and brothers
and sisters to mourn his loss; but the
loss to the devout wife and two
daughters cannot be estimated. Dear
friends, you can apply the language
of Paul, in regard to him who is
"asleep in Jesus," that he was "stead
fast, immovable, always abounding in
tbe work of the Lord." Dear friends
you have the sympathy of tbe entire
community, J. T.

A Minister Dead in the Snow.
SOMERSET, PA., February I.—Rev.
Cornelius Birkley, an aged minister
of the German Baptist Church, was
yesterday found dead in a field on his
farm halfway between the country
road and his house. He had been in
Somerset on Saturday, and in the
evening started home on the sled of
•John Bruner, a neighbor. His home
is about seven miles from Somerset
and half a mile from Bruner's. When
he reached Bruner's barn Mr. Birkley
said he would take the near cut
across the fields to his home. The
snow was very deep and the weather
was intensely cold with a heavy
wind. Not reaching home a search
was made, which resulted in the find
ing of the lifeless body lying face
downward in the snow. Mr Birkley
was about 10 years of age and was a
prominent minister for mauy years in
the German Baptist Church.
A Church Dedicated by a
Woman.
The I'rotestant Methodist Church
of Cantou, Kan , lately erected a
handsome new church building, and
invited the Rev. Annie 11. Shaw to
dedicate it. They asked her whether
the could not also help them to raise
the five-hiindr<*d-dollar debt on the
church. Misa Shaw said she had no
experience in raising money, but she
would do what she could Accord
ingly, when she came to speak, she
told the people that sho should not
think of offering any friend a gift
with a mortgage on it, and she
thought the debt of five hundred
ought to be paid off before they offer
ed that church to God. The money
was raised then and there, the debt
paid off, aud Misa Shaw dedicated a
church with no mortgage on it, Tbia
is believed to be the first orthodox
church ever dedicated by a woman

Ownership of a Dead Man.
PITTSBURG, Feb. 2. Nathaniel
Clark, of McK*eaport. in this county,
b ught a lot iu the Versailles Cem
etery in 135f>. In it be interred bit
fir»t wife and several childreu In
1872 he died, after having married a
.-econd time, and. according to bis
wish,was buried in tbe same lot. Ilia
body romained there for fourteen
years though in ISS3 aa attempt was
made to remove it,hut was not persist
ed in on account of the opposition of
lu 1886 Mrs Mary Clark,
the widow of the dead tnan,succeeded
in having tbe body of her husband ex
humed aud secretly removed to her
own lot Clark's children,by his first
wife, found the open i?rave Weeks af
terwards, and notified the cemetery
authorities to put the body back iu its
first resting place, aud engaged Un
dertaker Hunter to take charge of the
removal. Mr. Hunter,howover.when
he went to do so was told by Super
intendent Black that he had authority
to arrest any one who attempted to
take the bodv.
Snit was entered by the children
against the second wife, and to-day it
was decided in the Pittsburg courts
that tbe rights and duties of the wid
j ow over tbe remains terminated with
their burial. The disposal of the re
mains then belong* to tbe next of kin.
The Master held that the stealth and
secrecy used by Mrs. Clark indicated
that she was aware her act was unjus
tifiable He recommended that a de
cree be issued to compel the defend
ants to replace the body in its first
grave and pay $4OO for the damage to
the lot.
