Well, he couldn’t very well have escaped with- out his life, The Scientific American was last week Inrgely filled with illustrations and de- scriptive matter of the 8t. Louis tin plate works. But still there are some Demo- crats who inrist that there are no tin plate mills in the United States. Swift's three tailed comet can now he seen hetween two and four o'clock in the morning.

This thing of running all over a cemetery, climbing the fences, plucking flowers from graves etc., is liable to prove expensive to cer- tain persons, if it is kept up any longer. The borough authorities have rigged out our Chief of Police, John Fair, ina bran new gray helmet cap, fancy rose- wood mace, helt and silver name plate.

Getty, having bought Mr. Getty out. The people of Grants- ville will find Dr. Lichty a thorough gen- tleman and an able doctor. THE STAR wishes him much success. Bennie Wagner, the invalid son of | Theoph. Wagner, is certainly a genius. We saw a small chair, the other day, that he made. and for fine workmanship it can not be excelled. The lad whittles out all rorts of small trinkets and the mechanism his work shows is truly mar- velous. Jonas Keim returned home from Pitts- burg, last week. and from here went to Cumberland, Md., on Tuesday, to attend his brother George's marriage. He came home from Cumberland sccompanied by n | his brother P. 8., who has been engaged in the photograph business in that city for rome time. : The editor and associate editor of this paper acknowledge with thanks the re- ceipt of an invitation from Mrs. E. 8.

The issue of June 181 consists of fifty-six 7-column pages, filled with all the news of the day. an exiensive write- up of the opening of the new Times build- ing. also sketches of some of the great manufacturing and business institutions of that city and adjoining towns. The edition is a credit to itself and the city of Pittsburg, thebest city of its size on earth. It is reported that a great many dead fish are being found along the river. Some blame the Extract Works for this, sume the sawmills and others say the fish are being killed by means of dynamite, powder and unslacked lime, From what we can learn. about all the destruction of our fish is caused by blasters. It is said upon good authority that the Extract Works and sawmills have very little to do with it. Thomas Williams was not found guilty of the charge against him for the alleged violation of theliguorlaws. Simon Ham- mer, who had entered the complaint, did not appear at court, but had a deposition there in which he swore that the com- plaint he made and swore to concerning Williams was not true. Hammer should be arrested and sent to penitentiary for perjury, since he has made oath that he firrt swore to alot of lies. It looks as though the whole Williams affair was a blackmailing scheme. Several Nebraska papers published in worse than one-horse villages, and edited by brainless novices and nonentities, reached TRE BTAR office lass week with fictional write-ups of their towns, In each of: these papers the write-up was identic: lly the same. with the exception of names, and for genuine verdancy cold not be excelled. In each case *‘Plucky Nellie” was the heroine, which shows that some city “smarty” did the writing and that the green portion of Nebraska's journalists paid the bill for something that was as valueless as it was disgusting to intelligent people, Salisbury Organizes s Knights of Pythins Lodge. It will be remembered that Tae STAR some time ago suggested that Salisbury ought to have a Knights of Pythias lodge. and the time has now arrived when we can blow our bugle and say that such a lodge is now an assured fact. THE STAR does not claim all the credit for this. how- ever, a8 Richard Jeffery has the honor of soliciting the number of members suf- ficient to secure a charter for the lodge. Mr. Jeffery always knows when a good thing is suguested, and when THE STAR spoke ont in favor of a K. of P. lodge, he at once felt to work and did the rest. Mr. Jeffery is a hustler from away-back, and whenever he takes hold of anything you can always rest assured that he will jaecomplish his aims. It took him only & [little while to get everything in shape for business, and last Thursday evening he ther perfect the" ariangoments. : The meeting was promptly. opened at the appointed time and fhe following of- ficers were elected protem: President, Ri Jeffery; Secretary, Dr. A. M. Lichty; Treasurer, Dr. A. F. Speicher. The in- an itiation fees of twenty-four were then paid into the treasury and unother meeting called for the following Saturday evening. At the next meeting seven more mem- bers paid in their initiation fees; which makes in all thirty-one charter members for the lodge, consisting of the following persons: 8. R. McKinley, P. L. Liven- good, Calvin Beal, E. H. Lambert, R. C. Fuller. M. Welfley, N. Brandler, Harvey Hay, Br. A. M. Lichty, Newton Ringler, Arthur Robertson, D. H. Smalley, M. F. Statler. D. O. McKinley, G. W.

Walker, Wm. Petry, Aaron Maust. The following officers were elected: Past Chancellor, P. L. Livengood; Chan- cellor, Dr. A. F. 8Bpeicher; Vice Chancel- lor, Dr. A. M. Lichty; Master of Arms, D. O.

Koontz, 7 It was suguested that the organization he chartered as Casselman lodge, where- upon Dr. Lichty recommended that it be named Star lodge, in honor of this paper. The doctor's suggestion met with unani- mous approval and the former suggestion or motion was withdrawn. The ‘organ- ization will therefore be chartered as Star lodge, providing there is no other lodge in the state bearing the same name. No matter whether that name can be adopted or not, Tk Star kindly thanks Dr. Lichty and all others concerned for the honor they desire to confer upon this paper. and we earnestly hope that the new lodge, regardless of whatever name it will be known by, will flourish like a green bay tree, as it should. for the K. P. is a Heaven-born institution and a benefit to mankind. Beachy Bror., of Salisbury, on Friday and Saturday last had a booming trade, wagons, buggies, reapers and binders, going out at a rapid rate. Their new store is a mode] of its kind, and the hall on the second floor is pronounced the best in the county.—Meyersdale Register. About fifty-four years ago, while Mr. W. Megahan, of Bomerset, was working at the plasterers’ trade, he swallowed a small iathing nail. Fearing some trouble from this foreign substance in the stom- ach, Mr. Megahan tried different methods to get rid of is, but to no purpose. ~The pail has been in the system since 1888 but has not caused him the least pain or in- convenience until Sunday evening, when he felt a pricking in his left hand nesr the wrist. Upon close examination the long lost nail was discovered embedded in the flesh, und its outline and head could be plainly felt. The nail is nodoubt working it» way to the surface, and from the stom- ach has passed through the body untilitis now almost ready to break through the skin of the hand. It is certainly a re- markable case, but many instances of the kind frequently happen.—Somerset Dem- ocrat. Teacher's Examinations, 1892. Shade (Breastwork 8. H.) Friday, June»o.
