Died, Monday, March 28th, 1898, Miss
Eva Stanton, of near Bittinger, Md.
Deceased was sick but a short time and
died very unexpectedly. Her age was
17 years, 8 months and 22 days. Miss
Stanton had been attending school at
Grantsville and died at the home of her
uncle, Mr. William Broadwater. She
was a daughter of Thomas Stanton, who
died a few years ago. The remains
were iterred near the Lutheran church,
at Bittinger, her pastor, Rev. E. 8S.
Johnston, conducting the services.
Some people know how to be real
mean. A story is going the rounds
about a man whose wife had gone visit-
ing and would not listen to his appeals
to come home before rer visit was out.
He took a copy of his home paper and
carefully clipped out just one item,
then sent the paper to-her. She wrote
and asked what the item was about and
he refused to tell her. The scheme
worked admirably, and in lese than a
week she was at home to find out what
had happened that her husband did not
want her to know about,
The new county scheme, by which it
is proposed to slice up Westmoreland,
Somerset, Indiana and Cambria coun-
ties. and make Johnstown the new
county-seat, has taken on a serious
phase within the past few days. Ef-
fective work, pushed by Johnstown en-
thusiasts, has been going on quietly in
the Eastern end of Westmoreland coun-
ty, and some of the most active in op-
position to the scheme believe that the
new county promoters will be sucecess-
ful unless vigorous measures are adopt-
ed at once.—Eierette Republican.
The Meyersdale Commercial accuses
us of being jealous of its prosperity.
Prosperity, indeed! We fail to see
where the prosperity comes in. As oft-
en as Editor Smith has failed in busi-
ness, and the plant he operates to-day
being owned by a stock company, after
all his years in the journalistic field,
the Commercial has had anything but
prosperty. It has progressed crawfish
fashion. It has had a glorious oppor-
tunity to prosper, but owing to its
crooked politics and double-dealing, it
has a hard struggle for existence, for
which no one is to blame but its editor.
No, no, old man, we are not in the least
jealous of you. Our prosperity is sey-
eral laps ahead of yours.
We wish to call thespecial attention
of our readers to the new advertise-
ment of the 20th Century driving lamp
and bicycle headlight, which appears
in this issue.. This lamp is designated
by expert lamp authority as the great-
est light on wheels, and as its name im-
plies, it is considerably in advance of
19th century mechanism. All drivers
of vehicles should send for one of these
lamps, instead of fooling away time
with the old dash lantern, which is
more expensive to use and does not
give half the light. All bicycle riders
should have one, as those who use them
will have no other at any price. About
next week one of these lamps cam be
seen and examined at Tur Star office,
Wh at a howl would go up if newspa-
pers were to criticise the individual as
freely as many people criticise the
newspapers. Every issue of a live and
reputable newspaper'is a mantle of
charity, and the matter left out would
often more than equal in volumn the
matter published. If .an editor could
get out acold-fact edition of his paper
some day, and then get up a tall tree
and watch the results, what a picnic he
would have. Yet, people pever take
these things into consideration when
something chances to get into 'the pa-
pers that happens to pinch a little bit.
They don’t stop to think that the editor
is not different from other people, is
liable to err. Instead of condemning
the newspaper for what it does publish,
they ought to return thanks every day
for: what it does not publish.—E.r.

Thomas S. Williams Dead.
Thomas 8. Williams, che owner of the
large West Salisbury hotel, died early
yesterday morning, after a long spell
of ill health. Mr. Williams figured
prominently in the mineral develop-
ment of this county and was the first
operator to ship coal from Salisbury.
He was engaged in this business for a
number of years, but later he embarked
in the hotel-business in West Salisbury.
He was a man of considerable wealth
and business abilty, as well as a hard
worker. He was a native of Wales, but
came to Somerset county from Eastern
Pennsylvania. He leaves a daughter
‘and three sons to mourn his departure
—Mrs. Ben Jones, Abram and Morgan,
of this vicinity, and William, of Mey-
ersdale. At the time of going to press
the funeral arrangements have not yet
been decided upon.

Dr. Carr Dead.
Dr. M. A. R. FF. Carr, a once promi-
nent physician of Salisbury, died at his
residence in Cumberland, Md., last
Thursday, after an illness of several
months.
Dr. Carr was born August 30th, 1830,
in Frederick county, Va., and was a son
of Dr. Watson Carr, also a Virginian.
Forty-seven years of his active and
useful professional life were spent in
Garrett and Allegany counties. Md.,
and several years in Salisbury, Pa.
Deceased was a man of fine ability
and he had a large circle of admiring
friends. He was twice married. First
to a daughter of Elijah Wagner, of this
place, who died after one child was born
to them. His second wife,who is child-
less, still resides in Cumberland. Md.,
and his daughter, Mrs. Evora N. Smith,
is a resident of Salisbury.
Dr. Carr was a member of the Pro-
testant Episcopal church. He was a
man highly esteemed by all who knew
him, and it is with much sorrow that
his old-time patrons and friends learn
of his death.
The funeral took place last S8aturday,
in Cumberland, and the remains were
followed to their last resting place by
a large concourse of people.
Children and adults tortured by burns,
scalds, injuries, eczema or skin diseases may

A GRATEFUL TRIBUTE
Paid the National Educational As-

The March number of the “Book of
the Royal Blue,” issued by the Passen-
ger department of the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad is dedicated to the teach-
ers of the United States, on account of
their annual meeting to be teld at
Washington, next July. This issue con-
tains twenty-five superb half tones
from recent views of the National capi-
tal, with valuable suggestions to visit-
ors intending to go to Washington.
There is also a special illustrated article
on the Congressional library. Thisedi-
tion is made doubly interesting, as it
contains a descriptive article on the
battleship— Maine; furnished by the
Navy department and illustrated with
official photographs of the ill-fated ves-
sel before she went to Havana, and also
the morning after the explosion. The
latter photograph was bought by Lieu-
tenant Hood, of the Maine, the day af-
ter the disaster, and it was sent by Ad-
miral Sicard to Secretary Long.
This book should be in every teach-
gets the trade,

furnished free of cost to principals or |

WHO MUST GO TO WAR.
Able-Bodied Citizens Between 21
and 45 Years Must be Enrolled.
The laws of Pannsylvania -declare
that every able-bodied male citizen, be-
tween the ages of 21 and 45 years, must
be enrolled in the militia subject to ac-
tive duty in case of war, invasion, the
prevention of invasion, the suppression
of riots and to aid civil officers in the
execution of the laws of the common-
wealth ; and the Governor, who is com-
mander-in-chief of the militia, shall
order out for actual service, by draft
and otherwise as many of the militia as
necessity demands.
Such is the law, and under it all able-
bodied citizens are liable, but there are |
exemptions. Those whom the state
discards absolutely from its military |
service are; idots, lunatics, common
drunkards, vagabonds, paupers and per- |
sons convicted of any infamous erimes; |
also those non-liable to enrollment in
the milita are: Members of the legis-
lature and officers thereof ; the secre-
tary of the commonwealth, attorney |
general. state treasurer, surveyor gen- |
. . . |
eral, auditor general, state librarian;
i
4 superintendent of common schools, all
the judges of all the courts, sheriff, re- |
corder of deeds, register of wills, pro- |
thonotary, district attorney and clerk
of the courts. An estimate furnished
the United States authorities makes
850,000 men available in this state.
Whooping cough'is the most distressing
malady; but its duration can be cut short
by the use of One Minute Cough Cure, which
is also the best known ‘remedy for croup
and all lung and bronchial troubles. P. 8S.

Swindlers in a New Role.
One of the'latest wandering schemers
in the swindling line is the farmer.look-
ing chap who travels around with ears
of corn in his pocket. The ears are
from three to six times the size of or-
dinary ears of corn. He raised the corn
from seed sent him by his brother from
somewhere. He'd sell you 100 grains
for 25 cents, or a whole ear for $2. It
is nothing but ordinary corn. a number
of ears dexterously cut and the sec-
tions glued together to form one large
ear. He looks like a granger, his
clothes are rough and there is a trace
of hayseed on his abundant stock of
hair, but. he is a slick swindler, and he
deserves-a warm and violent reception.
Think They Can Liek Us.
Washington Post.
“There was a group in the accustom-
ed corner at Chamberlin’s, and much
war talk was going on. It was a con-
sensus of opinion, as voiced by Sanborn
Hopkins, Rye, et al., that if the call to
arms was made—and they believed it
was coming—the United States would
cause Spain to look like 85 cents in a
remarkably short space of time. Some
l'of them thought, however, that Spain
herself imagined she was fully able to
cope with this nation.
“That’s true,” said Hon. Marcus A.
Smith. “I have no doubt that the Span-
{ally built in 1851,
iards deem themselves in every way
our equal. In this respect they remind
me strongly of what a courtly old Mex-
ican onee said to me. He was in dead
earnest, too, but ever =o polite.
“‘S8enor, said he, ‘do not think that
in the event of trouble between your
country and mine there would be any
cause for fear of the result by our peo-
ple. Mexico is amply able to take care
of herself in any emergency. The truth
is, that if it wasn’t for Texas we could
come across the Rio Grande<any day,
thrash the whole United States and an-
nex it to our territory.” ”

War Blood Aroused.
Philadelphia Record.
The war spirit is particularly strong
in and around the interesting old town

present by dragging into the light of
day a great array of old army muskets,

paraphernalia.
very lively. The auctioneer was not
slow to take advantage of the efferves-
cent patriotism of the crowd, and
plunged into a philippic against the
treachery of Spain. The old guns went
cff like hot cakes, and the lot was soon
cleaned up. One of the most enthu-
siastic bidders. a worthy gentleman
named John Balts, bought all his purse
could pay for, and immediately organ-
ized an impromptu demonstration. He
rigged himself up with a belt, an old
army canteen, an old powder flask, sev-
eral bayonets and the biggest of his
muskets over his shoulder.

A Locomotive in Service from 1851
to the Present Time.
Cumberland News.
Baltimore & Ohio engine Mo. 99,which
has been doing yard service at Parkers-
burg, W. Va, has at last been laid aside
on account of the infirmities incident
to old age. This is one of the old Ross
Winan Camel engines, and was origin-
g
Her boiler was re-
built in 1881, but she still has the cylin-
ders, frames, ete., she had when in the
days of early railroading she was the
model freight engine. Her fate has not
been decided yet, but she will probably
be sent to the scrap pile, as it does not
pay to rebuild engines of her class now-
adays. There are only four of this class
of engines now remaining, two of which,
the 92 and 99. are now at Parkersburg.
The other two, 135 and 143, are at Mt.
Clare yard, Baltimore, Md.
It is as a matter of history that dur-
ing the Civil war a number of engines
were captured by the Confederates at
Martinsburg and were hauled across
the country by the pike to Stauton, Va.
They were the old Ross Winan Camels.
The Confederacy, being in need of lo-
comotives, took that means of getting
them. They were moved across the
country by Col. Thomas R. Sharp. It
is said that President John W. Garrett,
after the war was over, hunted up Col.
Sharp and appointed him master of
transportation of the Baltimore & Ohio
in recognition of the abilty displayed
in this bold, successful and unparallel-
ed achievement.

Fanny Davenport is out with an of-
fer of $100,000 to anyone who will write
her a new play that shall be a dramatic
masterpiece. Just as soon as we get
through with our spring garden-making
and the excitement attendant upon the
present political campaign and the
prospective war with Spain, we may
take a little time to devote to the con-

handy to have in our pockets anyway.
