Dear Editor. We wish,
through the columns of your ex
cellent paper, to thank the kind
people, who so generously con
tributed money, clothing, grain,
cornfodder, hay, flour, butters,
jollies, canned fruit, hard-rare,
glassware, crockery, etc., and
especially for help in erecting
new buildings.
The burning of our buildings
as announced in the columns of
the News some time ago, would
have left us without a home and
in a ruined conditiou, had not
those people come so quickly and
without asking, to our support.
Anything that we can do in re
turn, will be gladly done.

Killed By Train.
Meyersdale, April 5. Jessie
Meyers, aged 21, a member of a
prominent family, and George
Lindaman, aged 23,mine foreman,
said to have been sweethearts,
while walking on Lover's Path
last night, plunged sixty-feet
over the embankment to the
tracks of the Baltimore and Ohio
below, where the Duquesne Limi
ted, passing that point at a later
hour, completed the work of death
and both were killed.
The engineer oi tho limited was
unaware of the accident and con
tinued on his trip, but the bodies
were found later by the engineer
of a passing engine. '
The path overlooks a deep cut
of the railroad at that point and
it is supposed the girl misstep
pod or became faint, and falling,
pulling her lover with her down
the steep embankment. The
girl's body is badly mangled.
Mules Vs. Bear.
A big black bear that had heen
terrorizing the timid residents of
Diamond Valley, Huntingdon
county, during the winter, and
causing no small loss to their
domestic animals, and which
eluded the efforts of the best
hunters In the community for its
capture, met its death recently
on a Sunday morning from the
vigorous pummehng of an hum
ble mule.
Daniel C. Shxwley, a prominent
farmer and . lumberman, who is
one of the heaviest losers from
the bear's depredations, was
aroused by a commotion in his
barn and on investigation found
his mule in deadly combat with a
black bear. The bear having re
ceived several vicious blows from
the mule's heels, was lying on its
side, able only to use its right
paw. Contrary to custom, the
mule was playing its fore feet In
a vigorous attack on its entagon
ist, showering its blows on the
bear's head and shoulders. In a
very short time after Mr. Shaw
ley's arrival the marauding bear
expired.
The bear had entered the barn
by unlatching the stable door,
and in coming in too close prox
imity to the mule's battery, had
received a knockout blow at the
first volley. The carcass weigh
ed 202 pounds. The hide showed
the marks of eight bullet punctures.
