A GRAND SUCCESS.
Sacli Was the Y. M. C. A, Excursion to Ohio
Pjrle Falls Yesterday.
The bright skies yesterday morning
were full of promise for the 800 excur- •
sionists, who at an early hour were
astir making preparations for the trip to
Ohio Pyle Falls. The train of two pow
erful engines and fifteen ears moved
out of the city shortly before 8 o clock.
It was the largest pleasure party that ever
left the city. The B. &O. authorities are
heartily commended for providing enough
cars to seat every person comfortably.
The journey was without any unusual in
cident. Arrived at the Falls every excurs
ionist betook himself to making the best of
the day. None were disappointed at the
place, but many had to wait a little long
for dinner. The hotel was prepared for
the occasion, but the 450 hungry Johns
towners who sought dinner there com
pletely eat the place out. Those who took
their baskets were the best off. Tfie train
•tarted on the return trip at about 7:30
o'clock, arriving here at 11:15 o'clock,
bringing back the crowd well satisfied
with their day's outing.
[Desertion ami Elopement.
On Tuesday Mrs. Maltio Spires, wife of
Mr. Wilmore Spires, whose home is on
Prospect Hill, above the Twelfth ward,
eloped with William Woods, a painter,
who had been boarding on the South Side.
The couple went to Osborne station on
Tuesday afternoon and took the Somerset
and Cambria Railroad. At Rockwood
they bought tickets for Baltimore. Mrs.
Spires leaves behind her two children-a
girl aged thirteen and a boy aged six
years. She had a pleasant home and had
been married seventeen years. She took
with her $270 in money, which had been
saved of her husband's earnings, and was
kept in the house. The man Woods is
said to be n small man, not weighing over
one hundred pounds, and having no
money or other attraction. The runaway
wife is thirty-six years of age, and in her
conduct had never given cause for any
suspicion as to her faithfulness.
ANOTHER MIDNIGHT FIRE ALARM.
A Shanty Burned Down on the South .side
Last N'ght.
Last night at about 12:45 o'clock an
alarm of fire aroused some of our people
from their slumbers. The cause proved
to be the burning of a shanty near the
corner of Morris and Diber' streets, South
Side. It was discovered by Mr. Wm. A.
McNulty when on his way home. The
building evidently had been set on fire, as
it was unoccupied.
There are a number of such nuisances
about the place, which with a view to
public safety might be removed.
REVENGE IS SWEET.
Bat it ia Bitter When You Try 10 Get it
and Kail—A Story of the Republican
Factional Fight In thle County.
Every man has his likes and dislikes.
There are in this county certain politi
cians of the Republican persuasion, who
have theirs. Not content with carrying
the county their own way at the last
Republican primary election, they have
lately been trying, in a measure, to wipe
out of existence some of those of their
own party who have since pro'ested
against the means used in carrying cut
the purposes of the ring. Among those
who refused to bow to the yoke was
Alex. N. Hart, Esq., Alderman of the
Second ward.
Mr. Hart was and is yet a Hastings
man. He believes that the General is the
choice of Republican voters of the county.
He has dared to say so since the delegate
election in January, the arrangements for
which were made in a suburb of Blairs
ville, some time previous, when the
scheme for quietly carrying off this coun
ty for the Crawford statesman was per
fected and the money paid over.
We have nothing to say for one side or
the other, but will state some facts in or
der that the public may have a view of
the workings of the Republican State and
county machine.
Mr. Hart was a candidate for the Al
dermanic nomination in the First ward at
the Republican city primaries. He failed
to be nominated. Prominent among
those who helped to manipulate the coun
ty for Delamater was a present appli
cant for the Johnstown postoffice, and
prominent among those who opposed Mr.
Hart's nomination were he and his friends.
Some time ago it turned out that Mr.
Hart was appointed Alderman for the
Second ward, the person elected to that
position having failed to lift his commis
sion. That angered the anti-Hart faction.
They made effort to have the commission
revoked, and for that purpose Henry
Wilson Storey, Esq., candidate for the
Johnstown postofflce, and Fred W. Coxe,
traveling salesman for the Gautier De
partment of the Cambria Iron Company,
went to Harnsburg, bearing witli them
a remonstrnnce against the continuing of
Mr. Hart as Alderman and asking that
his commission be revoked. It is stated
that in going over the Second ward they
got eight signers to the remonstrance.
Just what took place at Attorney Gen
eral W. S. Kirkpatrick's office when the
gentlemen presented the remonstrance, is
not known, but this much is certain, Al
derman Hart's Commission still hangs on
the wall in his office, and the parties who
opposed him have the assurance from the
Attorney General that all his official acts
are as legal as those of any other Alder
man.
The whole procedure shows that the
methods of the ring Republicans is to
crush every opposing element within their
own party by not allowing anyone who
refuses to do their bidding, to attain any
prominence. In that way they maintain
their ascendancy.
A CHEMIST'S SUICIDE.
His Companion, Charley O'Connor, Sup
posed to l>e a Girl.
CLEVELAND, June 13.—About three
weeks ago J. A. Vincent, a chemist and
part owner of the Gardner Chemical
Works, on ludiana avenue, Chicago, came
to this city with a person known as
Charlie O'Connor, on a visit.
Vincent was twenty-six years old. His
companion was much younger, of slight
girlish tigure, black curly hair, blue eyes,
and a feminine voice.
A few days ago O'Connor went to his
home in Allegheny, Pa., and at noon yes
terday Vincent committed suicide by
jumping into a the lake from the bluff
west of this city. Ed Griffith, a boyhood
friend of Vincent's, who knew him in
Kansas City, saw lnm when he made the
fatal plunge.
Vincent went to Griffith's bouse despon
dent and declared that he would kill him
self. Yesterday morning when Griffith
arose Vincent had disappeared, leaving a
note saying he bad g me to drown himself
in the lake.
Hastily following him, Griffith arrived
at the lake shore just in time to see Vin
cent leap from the bluff. The body has
not been recovered.
Vincent left a letter saying he had
killed himself because Charlie O'Connor
had gone back on him. Griffith says he
thinks O'Connor was a girl, Vincent's
father is an Episcopal clergyman in Kan
sas City.
All Clot New Safes.
Yesterday Drayman W. J. Milligan had
the contract of delivering six large safes
for the National Safe A Dock Company,
of Cleveland, Ohio. The Swank Hard
ware Company, got one weighing 4300
pounds. John 11. Brown, Esq., and 11.
VV. Storey, Esq., each got one weighing
2000 pounds. The Herald Printing Com
pany, got one weighing 2200 pounds.
Porch Bros., one weighing 2400 pounds,

COURT PROCEEDINGS.
Regular June Term—(Second Wneli—Thurs
day Forenoon Session.
EBENSBURG, June 12.—Court called at 2
o'clock, Judge Krebs on Bencli.
Trial of Philip E. Chapin vs. the Cam
brio Iron Co. resumed. S. S. Blair argued
at length to the Court and jury for the
defendant, reviewing the principal fea
tures of the testimony and emphasizing
the strong points in favor of the Cambria
Iron Co.
Mr. Blair was followed by Judge Orbis,
of Bellefonte, for the plaintiff. He made
a most masterly plea—a brilliant, elo
quent, and ingenious argument for his
cliout.
The Judge then delivered his charge to
the jury, which was in part as follows:
The suit is action brought by Philip E.
Chapin by which he seeks to recover
from the Cambria Iron .Company money
which he alleges to be due him for ser
vices, beginning the Ist of July. 1881, and
ending the Ist of January, 1888.
The counsel have argued this case be
fore you very fully and while I will not
attempt to comment on all the points pre
sented in evidence, it is your duty to con
sider every point brought out in evidence
on the witness stand and make up your
verdict after, careful consideration. I
will divide' this case into two branches,
the second branch including the time be
tween the Ist of January 1884 to Ist of
January 1888. Sometime in 1888 Mr.
Cliapin was asked to become General
Manager of the Cambria Iron Company.
That appo'iitmcnt to begin the Ist of Jan
uary 1884 and to continue indefinitely.
By allegation of plaintiff his salary was to
be $12,000 per yeai. The defendant de
nies this, alleging it was only to be $lO,-
000 per unnum. While the President of
the Company has power to make ap
pointments, such appointments are sub
ject to approval by the Board of Directors
and must be confirmed to be valid. As an
officer of the corporation Mr. Chapin
should have bien familiar with the rules
of the Company and when the Board fixed
his salary at SIO,OOO per annum unless he
dissented at the time he would be botiud
by that decision. If he accepted and was
paid his monthly wages at the rate of
SIO,OOO per year as his monthly vouchers
show, as a matter of law he can recover
nothing more.
The first branch into which I have di
vided this case covers the period Mr.
Chapin was employed by the Cambria
Iron Company as Superintendent of the
Gautier Steel Works.
Prior to the first of Febrnary, 1881,
Mr, Chapin, then living at Cleveland, 0.,
was solicited by Mr. D. J. Morrell tooome
to Johnstown to take charge of the
Gautier Steel Company, limited, stating
that this company would be merged into
the Cambria Iron Company, and that as
Superintendent of tnis department his
salary should be SIO,OOO per annum. Mrs.
Chapin also testified that he was to re
ceive SIO,OOO. He came to Johnstown
to .ook .ato the business to determine
whether he would accept the offer or not.
After acquainting himself with the busi
ntss and requirements, he told Mr. Mor
rell that he would_accept the position.
He went back to Cleveland and returning
took charge of the Gautier Steel Works,
according; to this arrangement, the first
March, 1881. TLe fact that negotiations
were pending tor the sale of the
Gautier Steel Works to the Cambria
Iron Company, that it became the property
of that company the first of March, but
was still run as a separate department
until the first of July following is a mat
ter to be considered by you. The de
fendants deny that there was any
arrangement made by Mr. Morrll to pay
the plaintiff SIO,OOO a year. They affirm
that his pay was $7,000 per annum,
monthly for which vouchers
were drawn. These different vouchers
signed bp Mr. Chapin will help you to
determine what the salary was, but are
not abs#lute. They do not prove con
clusively that was the whole of his
salary ; for according to the testimony of
the defendants the total of all salaries was
not paid at Johnstown.
On the question submitted by counsel
for defendant that if the stated salary of
the plaintiff was $7,000 and that there
was a secret understanding with Mr, Mor
rell by which he was to receive $3,000
more from the company, it would be a
fraud to which the plaintiff would be a
party and could not recover, we would
submit to you in this connection what the
general practice ot the company was, and
if in harmony with that practice they paid
him $7,000 from the Johnstown office and
$3,000 from the Philadelphia office it
would not be a fraud.
It is acquiesced in by both sides that in
addition to his salary SSOO was paid liini
at one time, which the defendants claim
was a mere gratuity. It it were a gratuity
it could not be construed as evidence that
it was due him on salary, but if it were
shown to be a recognition of the compa
ny's indebtedness to Mr. Chapin for his
services in addition to his salary then it
forms a basis for the plaintiff's claim.
It is also shown that he received SI,OOO
at another time, which is claimed by
plaintiff as a recognition of money due
him. On part of defendant it is claimed
it was paid for some other reason and
charged up to expense account; but it is
also shown that all salaries are charged
up to expense account. In the absence
of any explanation, the jury will dispose
of the matter as your judgment,
based on the evidence presented,
dictates. Another SI,OOO mentioned
in the | alleged recognition, the
plaintiff claims, was paid him in acknowl
edgement of the excess due him on this
$7,000. Gentlemen of the jury, it is for
you take all this testimony, these letters
and vouchers and determine what was
the true relation of plaintiff to the Cam
bria Iron Company. If $7 000 was his
■ full salary, then he has no claim on the
company. If on the other hand you deter
- mine that his salary according to evidence
1 adduced was SIO,OOO per annum, then he
5 would be entitled to the balance of aalary
" due him with interest.
> Jury was then sworn and returned about
1 sp. M.
New jury was called to box and sworn
' to try issue between John Neary, ot Pros
! peet, and Pennsylvania Railroad for tres

KVBNINU SESSION.
The trial of John Neary vs. P. R. R.
was resumed.
The jury that had been out on the case
of Philip E. Chapin vs. the Cambria Iron
Co. returned with their verdict, which is
in plain English that the Cambria Iron
Co. ply Philip E. Chapin $7,700.
FRIDAY MORNING SESSION.
Court called at 9 A. M., Judge Krebs on
the bench. Trial of John Neary vs. Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, continued.
After examing a number of witnesses and
many records the Judge finally decided to
take the case away from the jury. After
which Court adjourned to meet at 2 p. M.
FRIDAY AFTERNOON SESSION.
Court called at 2 r. M., Judge Johnston
on the bench.
Jury was called to try the issue, Mary

QUITE A FALL.
A House on Iron .Street Suddenly Let
Down 4 Don I Three Feet.
Tuesday afternoon about 1:30 o'clock
a serious accident happened to the house
occupied by Mr. Jas. J. Maloncy, keeper
of the Lincoln Hotel, Iron street. The
house was being raised on jacks for the
purpose of having a wall put under it.
When elevated about three feet, the sup
ports gave way, letting the building drop
that distance. The building was nearly
shattered to pieces. One end went into
the cellar, and the kitchen floor was torn
up. It was a Hughes house, which had
been erected shortly after the flood. The
paper and plastering nearly all came off
tlie walls. Mrs. Hayes, the liouse-keeper,
was in the house at the time, but escaped
uninjured, though much frightened.
There was no fire in the house at the
time, or further trouble might have re
sulted. Some workmen in the cellar
miracuously escaped injury.

ttiOtlM.
BOSTON, June 19. —It has been asccr*
tained thaj George Wats m, a veteran of
the Mexican war, ami sixty-five years of
age, has been drawing pensions in bis

A Good Word for tlie (ild Maid*.
From the New York Press.
No product of the last decade of tlie
nineteenth century has changed more
completely than the old maid. The
modern old maul always looks a great
deal younger than she is. This youthful
ness is the uaturul outcome of good health,
a clear conscience ami a kind heart,
which are in turn produced by a sys
tematic course of mental and phyical
activity pursued by her. The niodbrn old
maid spends the best part of her time
planning and working for the comfort
and happiness of others. The brothers of
the family adore their old maid sisters.
