CORRESPONDENCE.
THE COUNTY CAPITAL.
The cards for the wedding of Miss
Nannie Louise Cunningham, of this place.
to Mr. James E. Snyder, of Minneapolis,
Minn, are out. The wedding will take
piace March 29th, 1892, in the First Pres-
byterian church.
Mr. E. Kyle is here making all arrange-
ments to take possession of the Somerset
house on April 1st. We predict that he
will make a big snecess of it.
The local editor of the Herald went to
Pittsburgh ou the evening of the 20th
inst. ;
Congressman Scull is a candidate for
re election. Tt is reported that Mr. J. D.
Hicks, of Altoona, will contest his nomi-
nation in this county. Something wrong
somewhere when Somerset county must
seek for a candidate in Blair county. 4
Mr. Walter Hefley on Monday pur:
chased of Galbraith Bros.,
Wis. the finest draft stallion ever seen in
Somerset county. He is an imported
Englishshire horse and will weigh in the
neighborhood of 1900 pounds. This
horse. with the English Hackney pur-
chased by Gen. A. 'H. Coffroth, gives this
county some foundation stock to be proud
of. Both animals are splendid types of
their kind.
Deputy Sheriff Barron. lias purchased
the beautiful residence of H. 8S. Endsley,
Esq. lle will take possession April 1st.
The most busy men in the county at
present are L. C. Colborn and J. A.
Berkey, rival candidates for the office of
District Attorney.
Burgess Welfley,. who has been con-
fined to the house for the last two weeks,
is not yet able to be out. He is suffering
from the grip.
J. D. Bwank, ex-Recorder. has been
appointed assignee for the Fair Hope
Fire Brick Company. He will carry on
the works and expects to supply all pat-
rons.
Judging from the number of visits
made to this town by some of the young
men of Meyersdale, the County Capital
and the Metropolis may be related ere
long by marriage. We say do not be
bashful, gentlemen; press your claims.
Prof. N. G. Keim, formerly principal
of the Somerset schools, spent the Sun-
dry here.
Qur County Commissioners have grown
quite autociatic, and from their litile
smoke tninted office in the Court Honse
proceed with much suavity of manner to
explain to the tax payer that he is only
paying ‘excursion rates” on his property.
It requires sweetness to soothe him after
a journey of 28 or 80 miles to attend an
appeal that changes nothing. The little
blowing up THE STAR gave them last
week, while only a homeopathic dose,
may move their torpid livers and prepare
their systems for a larger dose, which
will be sure to be administered by the in-
dignant citizens sooner or later.

A Preacher's Strategy.
Rev. John Herr. n Meyerstown, Lancas-
ter’ county, Dunkard preacher, heard a
noise in the direction of his smokehouse
at night, and, proceeding to investigate,
carrying away his
flitch and hams. One man was inside
handing out the cured meat, while the
other was outside with a wheelbarrow.
After the latter had secured a load and
was wheeling it away, Rev. Herr took
his place, and was readily mistaken by
the thief inside the smokehounse for his
pal. ‘The thief asked “Shall I take it
all” and the preacher replied, “You
might as well.” The owner then received
his own goods, which were handed out
to him. When thief No. 2 returned, the
preacher revealed his identitv. The
thieves, who proved to be near neighbors,
fell upon their knees and begged for
mercy. Rev. Herr allowed them to de-
part, after giving each a good supply of
provisions.—Ex.
Paradoxical.
Fighes are weighed in their scales,
- And an elephant packs his own trunk,
But rats never tell their own tales,
And one seldom gets chink in a chunk.
Dogs seldom wear their own pants,
Which lays them open to scorn;
No nephew or niece fancies ants,
And a cow never blows her own horn.
A cat cannot parse its own claws,
No porcupine nibs his own quill;
Though orphan bears still have their paws,
- And a bird will not pay its own bill.
Slick ducks never go to a quack,
A horse cannot plow its own mane;
A ship is not hurt by a tack,
And a window ne'er suffers from pane.”
