IM MATTERS
(IFJNTEREST
Duriug yesterday afternoon while
things were very dull out of doors and
the raiu drops pattered dretrily on the
window pane a few old timers gather
ed around Commissioners' Clerk Horace
Blue aud began to talk over old times.
Somebody w intod to know what be
came of the .leer that used to be kept
uu the Court House lawn when tlie
ground was euclosed itli a high pick
et fence of irou. Another wanted to
know how long ago the deer were re
moved.
Now the genial Commissioners'
Clerk is not only an authority on
County government, on politics and
the laws governing election,hut he al
so has a rich fund of other informa
tion on baud. Coming hack to the
deer, he said, they were an attraction
about the Court House until about
1890, wlieu they were sold. Ttiey were
there for many years. During the in
terval two little fawns were added to
the number aud grew up to maturity.
In 187ti, the old buck, known as
"Colonel," met a tragic death. Thd
Btory is a remarkable one, but Horace
vouches for lt lt was late iu
the fall—the day after the election.
The news had just reached the Court
House that Samuel J. Tilden was elect
ed. It is a tradition that at the very
momeut when the result of the elec
tion was announced the buck, always
contented and at peace at the Court
House before, with a single bound
leaped out of the giounds and escaped.
What may have prompted Uie act is
another matter but it is a fact that
the big buck oil that day did leap out
over the high fence and e-caped to the
woods. The old fellow did not enjoy
liia freed m very long. The next day
he was shot by Clinton Yorks.a farm
er of Rush township,who mistook the
buck for a wild deer and did not find
out his mistake uutil some time later.
The deer.it was discovered,had struck
the pickets iu trying to clear the fence
and had injured himself pretty badly

pickpockets and shoplifters They have
beoome a nuisance and a curse, aud
the several fair managements ought to

There is an epidemic of petty thiev
ing iu the wake of every fair, merch
ants are annoyed and sutler serious
loss by the depredatious of shoplift
ers, and the insidious pickpocket is a
constant menace to those who attend
these annual exhibitions. The appre
iieusion of a few of them by a force of
detectives would tend to keep them
away. A move in the right direction
has been made,however,by the Blooms
burg Fair Association, iu securing the
services of two Pinkerton detectives
who will be on the lookout for any
operations by this d*ss of thieves,

VICTIM Of- RAILROAD
ACCIDENT DIES
Injuries sustained, as the result of a
railroad accident, caused the death of
Jesse Fetter, aged 21 years, of Win-
Held, at the Mary M. I'acker Hospital
in Sunburv, Tfte»day night at half

Fetter had business to transact in
Lewlsburg, Tuesday afternoon, and
hitched up a colt to make the trip. At
the Reading railroad crossing uear
Bucknell University, Lewisburg.
which point was reached at about half
past three o'clock, the colt became
fright eued at au approaching passenger
train, and Fetter's efforts to control
the animal, resulted in both the horse
aud driver lauding on the railroad
track in front of the engine pilot.
The engineer tried to stop the train
but the intervening distance was too
abort and Fetter wits caught under the
wheels, sustaining terri ble]injuries.
Both of his legs were ground off, and
he was otherwise badly injured.
The colt was instantly killed aud the
engine was derailed.
Fetter was taken to Sunbnry and
taken to the Mary M Packer Hospital
Iu the ambulance, where he was skill
fully attended by snrgcons and nurses,

field, where the funeral will be held
on Friday morning at ten o'clock.
The Patriotic Order Sous of America
of which the deceased was au active
member, will conduct the funeral.
EXPRESS COMPAfiY
ROBBED OF SIOO,OOO
PITTSHURG, Oct. 11.—The startl
ing discovery was made late yesterday
that the Adams Express Company had
beeu victimized to the extent of SIOO,-
000, supposedly through the pecula
tions of an employe.
Tiie following official statement of
the affair is given the i>ress for pub
lication :
"At 4:15 p. m. Monday, October it.
a bank of Pittsbrug, Pa., delivered to
the Adams Express Company at their
office at (5610 Wood street, Pittsbnrg, a
package of currency containing SIOO,-
000. Of this amount fSO.OOO was in
SIOO bills, SIO,OOO in SSO bills and the
remainder, SIO,OOO, in $5, $lO, and S2O
bills. The $lO and $- r io bills, issue of
the Farmers' Deposit National Bank,
of Pittsburg, and the Bank of Pitts
burg, N. A., were, in the main, en
tirely new; some had been slightly
used. The s">, $lO and S2O hills were
old currency. The package contain
ing this laige sum of money was con
signed to a bank in Cincinnati.
"This package was received and re
ceipted for by Edward George Cuuliffe
who was then anting iu the place of
ttie regular money clerk, who was ill.
"Cuuliffe left the ollice at the usual
time last evening aud this morning,
when he failed to report for duty, a
hurried examination was made of his
department and it was learned that
about SI,OOO of fuuds entrusted to his
care were missing General Agent
Hicer, of the Adams Express Com
pany,immediately called in dotectives
and placed the matter in their hands.
Later developments brought to light
the fact that in addition to the SI,OOO
missing the bank package containing
the SIOO,OOO had not been received at
the money forwaiding offices at Union
station, this city.
"Inquiries made at his residence,Bl4
Lucerne street, West End, Pittsburg,
showed that Cuuliffe arrvied home at
the customary time last evening and,
alter changing his clothes, bade his
family good-bye, saying to his wife
that he was goiug out tor the evening

Two Deaths Yesterday
NANTICOKE, Oct. 11.—The epi
demic at this place seems to be getting
under control as there wore no new
cases reported today There were two
(1 adis reported but they Were of long
stauding when admitted. Cue of the
patients was iu a hopeless condition
when taken in a few days ago. John
Sy/.manski and Stanley Tauna, these
as stated above were old cases when
admitted, are the deaths reported.
Nicholas Horn was admitted today
but this case also is old, having been
affected over three w< eks. This leaves
tho epidemic without a reported case
for the last thirty-six hours.
Dr. Johnson, in an interview today,
expressed the most sanguine hopes that
the dread malady has been checked.
The doctor emphasized the fact that
the epidemic had taken a good hold
when lie took charge and that it takes
time to wipe out a contagion that had

TRACKMAN WAS
PAINFULLY WOUNDED
Painfully wounded by a revolver'
bullet, Charles Richards, a Philadel
phia aud Reading track walker, was
found along Blue Hill above tlie North
umberland bridge by a south bound
freight crew.
The victim was taken to the Sun
bury Hospital, where the wound was
dressed by the surgeons m charge.
While the wound is quite painful. 110
serious results are anticipated.
Much mystery seem to surround the
shooting, a number of different stories
as to how it occurred being afloat.
The victim and his wife, who was
formerly Ida Dellaven, affirm that it
was an accident. They both say that
Richards was handling the revolver
when it wa* accidentally discharged.
Members of the train crew who dis
covered the body of Richards say that
the womati. who was the only other
person 011 the scene at the tune, re
marked that she had tieen on a little
fishing expedition with the victim,
that only a little accident had happen
ed.
Other f-tories which are stoutly deni
ed by both parties, hint at a quarrel
between tlie two.

God in three persons, blessed
Trinity."
Then followed the redodicatory
prayer and an anthem, " Te Denm. "
The Twilight Song Service, the full
program of which was printed in
these columns Saturday morning,
took place at 15:4.) o'clock and proved
to bo a v«ry inspiring feature of the
day.
At 7 :30 o'clock the memorial ser
vice was held. Aft-r a prelude,"Lead
Kindly Light," hymn No. 594 was
sung. The scripture lesson was read
afti r which au anthem, "Weary of
Earth" was rendered by the choir.
Prayer was followed by a bass solo,
'Wl.eu the Mists Have Cleared Away,'
by Mr. Miller.
The memorial address was delivered
by Kev. Robort L Stewart, 1). D , of
Lincoln University, who was a former
pastor of Mahoning Presbyterian
church. It was a most able discourse
and was listened to with the keenest
interest by the large audience present}
The text was taken from Rev. 14: 13:
" Yea saitli the spirit that they may
rest from their labor; and their works
do follow them "
After some very beautiful in
troductory remarks explanatory of
the text and showing its application
Hev. Stewart said: "We are here to
night , my friends, to do honor to the
memory of two eminent and highly
esteemed servants of Jesus Christ-
William E. Ijams and Alexander B.
Jack. Tlie history of this time honored
church, in which they ministered in
succession as pastors, is the record for
the most part of the silent congrega
tion, larger by far than that which
worships here today, whose wcrk goes
on while themsevles are resting from
their labors. Six of the faithful pas
tors of this church are numbered with
the silent congregation. Beginning
with the first their names are: John
Boyd Patterson,Robert Ounlap,David
M. Holiday, John W. Yeomans,Will
iam J. Ijams and Alexander B. Jack.
I am glad to note that a beautiful and
enduring tablet has been placed with
in these walls to commemorate ttie
ahlo and the eminently successful
ministry of Dr Yoemans. This 1 un
derstand is the gift of a number of
the older members of the congrega
tion, who tenderly loved him and re
vere his memory. The beautiful tab
let of hrouzt which we dedicate to
night bears the honored name of Will
iam E. Ijams and Alexander B. Jack,
whose united term of service extended
from May 20. 1805 to the 28th of June,
1871 Mr. Ijtins was tin successor of
Dr. Yeomans. lie came to this charge
as the licentiate of the Presbytery of
Huntingdon. In this house of wor
ship about ten years after its erection
lie was solemnly set apart to the office
of the gospel ministry ami here with
the hearty enthusiasm of young man
hood he entered upon the work to
which lie had been called and assign
ed. In his brief ministry extending
over a p.'rind of less than three years
the cll,i rll enjoyed a precious season
of revival and was greatly prospered.
The records of the church show that
ninety-two persons— sixty-seven nu
confession of faith and rwinty-five by
certificate -were received into the
communion of the church while un
der his care. Mr. Ijams entered upon
his ministry in this place at a time of
uuusual difficulty, distraction and
strife. The cruel war, which had
stirred the feelings of ruen to the low
est depths and in this as in many
other cominunitos had arrayed brother
against brother in church and society,
was drawing to a close, that as yet
the great armies which deferred the
government hail not beeu disbanded.
There was a restless feeling in the
air; the demoralization of a great and
a long continued war was apparent on
every hand and spirituality iu the
church was at a very 1 w ebb.
In this trying hour the voice of the
vouug preacher rang out clear and
strong in the interest* of righteous
ness and peace. He voiced without
fear or favor the old call which once
echoed and re-echoed among the rocks
of the wilderness of Judea: "Repent,
Ye, for the Kingdom ot Heaven is at
Hand." After awhile hearts that had
long beeu hardened began to melt,
ears that had been heavy, dull and
almost closed to the gospel call were
opened; brethren whioh had long been
alienated by strife, sought each other
in brotherly hand clasp and from young
people iu the Sabbath School and
from older persons in tlie public as
semblage was heard the low thrilling
cry: "Men and brethren. What must
we do to he saved?"
There were others, also, who at
heart perhaps were loyal to Christ,
but as yet had never acknowledged
Him as their Savior and Master, who
under tho leadership of this young
pastor took their stand boldly on the
Lord's side. There is oue here to
night who with bet husband stood be
fore the pulpit with this number of
witnesses for Christ tow fioui the
memory of that pastor is very precious
Toher, acting as tin representative
of tin we are all indebt
ed for the gift of this memorial tab
let. Through her generous gifts and
loving iniuistrie* in the Master's
name she is known to us all and I
forbear to mention her name tonight.
This, however, I crave the privilege
of saying as au illustration of my text
that by reason of her loyal helpful ser
vice extending through many years
the work of this pastor and of others
who have succeeded hi in has been
made easier, better, broader, more en
dining, and there are other voices be
cause of these gitfs and ministries are
repeating the message of redeeming
grace today in this laud and in far
away lands beyond the s' as iu the
I lace of those who have finished their
course and entered upon their rest.
Conjoined with the name of Will
iam K. Ijams in honorable mention
and grateful remembrance is the name
of his immeliate successor, Alexander
B. Jack. He was born and reared in
Scotland and was a son of the manse.
His father, the l!ev. Dr. Alexander
Jack, ot iihn Dur, Scotland and his
grand father, Rev Dr Robert Jack,
of Manchester, England, were famous
preachers in their day and without
doubt Mr. .la'-k received through he-
reditary channels the rare gift ot
eloquent speech, which made him so
! acceptable and 80 widely known. lie
was graduated from the Universities
of Glasgow ami Kdinhnrgh. 11 >■
completed his coarse >n this country
and was licensed to preach in IH.y.i.
His first pastoral charge was in New
burg on the'Hiidson. He entered u| -
oti his duties as pastor elect ot tlie
Mahoning churcli on the second Sab
bath of Jan. 18<>9. There are some to
night who can reoa'l the tall form,
inimitable manner and sharjilv defined
classically moulded face of this he lov
ed pustor. He was a man of striking
>ndividuality. He was deeply sympa
thetic by nature, generous to a fault
and possessed a winsome personality
which attracted to himself a wide cir
cle of admirers and friends. In the
pulpit the originality of his concep
tions and ths brilliant imagery in
which he clothed them at once at
tracted attention. He sought the wide
range of the cniverse iu his search
for fitting symbols and striking illur
tiatious of the truth he wished to con
vey aud impress upou the minds of
his hearers. Gifted with a bold vivid
imagination and inbnd with the very
spirit and essence of poetic fancy aud
farvor he frequently rose to sublime
heights of eloquent speech and always
sustained the interest of his theme,
which his introduction had aroused tc
the very end.
"One is astonished," says a con
temporary writer, at the ease, fluency
and extieuie rapidity with which his
illustrations fell upon the ear, all
rounded aud polished like stones of a
lapidary Sotun of these are so perti
nent and yet so ablaze with the cor
uscations of genius and poetry, that
his hearers bear them away, refer to
thrni agaiu aud again."
In his gifted son, Robert Homier
.lack, a child of the Mahoning manse,
Alexander B. Jack has a worthy suc
cessor. May his lift- long be spared
to preach with the sweetness aud pow
er, which characterized his address
this morning the glorious gosp I of
the Son of God, which iu due cour>e
froui father to son through four gener
ations has hem committed to his
trust
My friends, the memorial tablet we
set up to night in honor of these de
parted servants of Jesus Christ—beau
tiful, appropriate, tndnring a< it is—
belongs nevertheless to the things of
time,those things which one day snail
pass away. At best it is only a type,
I a reminder, of another tablet of itu
perishable remen braiice, written he
' foie Hiui for those who amid abound
; ing evils, defections, opjio-»iri»>ris and
trials, feared the Lord and thought
upon His name. May God give to each
! of n« a place on that enduring record
iof loving obedience and faithful s
▼ice." HZ

IT IS A WHOLESOME FOOD IF IT IS
PROPERLY MADE.
The CniNl Shonlil He of U nfrr-lika
TllinitefcN mill f'riKp mill 1 Inky.
I-'lve Hales to fl.- Observed In the
Muklnfs o( u I'erfe«-t I'ie.
Although food theorists nnd food
cranks have varying opinions us to the
wholesomeness of certain foods, they
one and all agreo In denouncing plo.
It is the one dish most ardently con
demned, and yet the ouo dish most
universally liked—at least by Amer
icans. Still, notwithstanding the bad
reputation pie enjoy®, it Is a whole
some dish If properly made.
In making It the average housewife
rolls out a heavy, sodden crust, and
then spreads it iu a thick. layer orer
the bottom and sides of a pie plate.
She forgets to rub this crust with the
white of egg and Immediately puts in
Uie tilling of custard, fruit or mince
meat, whose juices will later soak into
the crust, making it still more sodden.
She then covers tlie pie, perhaps, with
another layer of this thick pastry anil
puts it in an oven that is not hot
enough. The oven should bo so hot
that the pastry will brown before;the
butter in It has barely a chance to
melt. The crust will then be crisp.
Another reason why pies are so uni
versally disapproved Is tlwit they are
nearly always made with lard, or half
lard and half butter. Lard should
never be used in a pie or, In fact, in
any dish. An eminent physiologist In
a leading university says that "lard is
the bane of American cookery ami is fit
for no stomach except a pig's." A tiny
bit of lard inn batch of bread may be
excusable, but even then butter Is bet
ter.
All pie crust, of course, should be of
wafer-like thinness. Not only are prop
erly made crusts harmless, but some
popular fillings are exceedingly whole
some. What, for instance, could bo
better than a custard or a pumpkin
tilling? The latter Is, as a rule, only
a custard rich in eggs, with nn addi
tion of pumpkin and a few spices,
which are aids to digestion.
Without doubt all pies should be
eaten In moderate portions, especially
by delicate persons, but this rule ap
plies to any dish. Even cream Is not
good for persons under certain condi
tions, yet no one but a crank would
deny It to a person In good health.
Many food faddists expect healthy
people to live dally on an Invalid's diet.
There are five rules to observe In the
making of a perfect pie. First, rub
the undercrust with the white of an
egg before putting in the lilllng to pre
vent It from soaking Into the pastry;
second, bake It In tho hottest of,ovens;
third, place It In the lower half of the
oven at first agnlnst the bottom, later
removing It to the upper shelf; fourth,
always place crust in the refrigerator
to become thoroughly chilled and hard
before filling aud baking It; fifth,
pound the pastry well until It Is filled
with air spaces.
Volumes could be written on the cor
rect treatment of pastry. Any of the
recipes In standard cookbooks will'do,
however. If a few details are carried
out
A marble board is an ideal arrange
ment for rolling pastry. A current
household magazine suggests that the
hideous marble tops of old fashioned
tables might be fitted r.p for tills pur
pose.
Smooth, eveu pie crust is an abomina
tion, and yet many housekeepers think
that is the proper way to havo It, and
sometimes they will even be heard to
complain when by accident their pio
crust is rough and almost breaking
into wafer like flakes. This flakiuess
is, however, the proper condition of
pastry.
Pies as a rule are better adapted to
a winter than a summer diet, because
of the butter, which makes tliein too
rich for warm weather faro. Fruit
pies, however, are good at all seasons,
and there are few things more attrac
tive than huckleberry and other fruit
pies even in tlie hottest dog days. There
aro also many good cold meat pies
which are welcome at picnics. When
preparing a chicken or meat pie It la
always better to add a little baking
powder to the regular rule for ordinary
pie crust.
Add one cup of butter to every two
cups of Hour (pastry flour). Then chop
together In a wooden bowl, with an
ordinary old fashioned chopping knife,
until tlio mixture Is broken Into small
bits the size of peas. Add half a cup
of Ice water. Mix with a knife, then
beat and turn and beat and turn until
the whole Is smooth, but full of light
ness. This pounding and turning Is
better If done upon a marble board In
a cool storeroom or cellar. Never touch
the pastry witU a spoon or the hand,
but with a knife; then put It where It
will become ice cold and hard before
rolling It out.
There are several variations to this
rulo which can do no harm. If baking
powder Is wanted, add a teaspoonfui
to this amount of flour and butter.—
