A patenf was recently granted to D. G. Reitz, of Berlin, and H. A. Reitz, of Somerset, on a flour maturer and dough raiser. We hope the inveution will raise them lots of “dough.” Highland Inn, the large summer ho- tel in Somerset, will be managed by a Mr. Cowan and wife, of Pitrsburg, who bands. have had much experience in manag ing places of public entertainment. We are glad to note that M.J. Beachy, who had been sick for a fortnight or pulled down considerably in flesh, he is rapidly gaining health and strength. A charter has been granted for "the building of an electric line from Alle- gany Grove,near Cumberland, to Frost- burg.

Speicher recently decided to move to Meyersdale, but after consid- ering the matter thoroughly he arrived at the conclusion that he can do better here, in which all his numerous friends and patrons concur. Gertrude, daughter of Captain Hef- fley, of Berlin, died on Monday of last week, aged about 22 years. The de- ceased had an attack of searlet fever when about one year old, and although she lived through it, she was helpless ever afterward. Samuel Imhotf, of Meyersdale, who { occasionally drives a livery team for Wm. Williams, is said to have broken a leg, yesterday, while watering his team at the Miller trough. Just how the accident occurred we have not defi- nitely learned Moving day, that most detestable of all days, struck Tue Star hard, this week. Boi h the editor and the foreman moved into new quarters on Monday, and this. together with an immense run of job printing, left us but little time to devote to this edition of the paper. We notice that the Commercial adver- tises M. J. Beachy’s lot sale to take place at 9 o’clock p. m. This is a very busy community, but not so busy as to compel lot sales to take place at night. The hour for the sale is 9 o'clock a. m., as it appears in Mr. Beachy’s “ad” in Tie STAR. Be sure to attend the Commence- ! ment exercises of the Salisbury High | school, which will be held in the Salis- bury opera house, Monday evening, April 11th. The program will be very entertaining. All good citizens will help anything pertaining to our schools, of which we have a right to be proud. The members of the Somerset d@un- ty Association of Baker Heirs will meet at the Corut house, at 10 o'clock, Sat- urday morning, April 9, to take further steps to secure a portion of the large fund that they claim. It is stated that encouraging reports have been received from the attorneys of the association.— Somerset Standard. Henry Shaffer, of Jenner township, is in the county jail, where he will be held to answer to a charge of incest, preferred by his thirteen-year-old daughter, the eldest of six children.

Sherman Welfley, who clerked for G. K. Walker several years, as well as a year or two for C. E. Statler & Bro, left this week for Scott City, Kan.. where he will take charge of a store for ‘Geo. W. Livengood. Ting STAR wishes Sherman much suceess in his western home. He is a young man of good qualities and will fiill his position with credit to himself and his employer. The Hotel Vannear, in Somerset, last week changed management. J.B.Win- ters and W. H. Kantner have taken possession of the hotel, and the Van- nears have moved to Jenner township to engage in farming. Winters and Kantner had planned a trip to the Klondyke, for which they had pur- chased an extensive outfit, but all of a sudden they abandoned the project, in which they no doubt acted wisely. The Somerset ITerald claims to have double the circulation of any other paper in the county, the Commercial alone excepted. It is very easy toclaim. The mutual admiration society com- posed of the two papers named, mutual only in the matter of blow and bluster, .| is about the thinnest thing we know of. The Herald knows that there isn’t one word of trath in its claim. Neitherthe family organ nor the Meyersdale or- ganette have any way near as large a circulation as they once had. But let them blow, for it is necessary, seeing that their lists are getting smaller every year, while the lists of their com- petitors are growing. “Under, the Spell,” the temperance play in four acts, which was rendered in the Opera house, Tuesday night, by home talent, was greatly enjoyed by all who witnessed it. It was well render- ed, and much eredit is due to all who took part in it. Every part was well played, and the costumes were very suitable for the occasion. Music was furnished by an orchestra composed of Mr. and Miss Eicher, of Rockwood, and S. L. Livengood, of Salisbury, their in- struments being the violin, piano and cornet. While the orchestra was small, the music was nevertheless of a very | high order, and the musicians, as well as the actors on the stage, were all greatly complimented and applauded. The audience was not as large as it should have been; yet, considering the inclemency of the weather, the tarnout was fairly good. If this company of young people put another play on the stage, they will have a larger audience, as they have demonstrated their abil- ity, which is certainly of a high order. do ee —— = M. L.

During the past session the public schools of Benson borough have been under the direction of C. Foster Cable, of Shade township, with Miss Lizzie Baker, the popular daughter of Deputy Sheriff G. M. Baker, as assistant. The schools flourished and the pupils made rapid progress under these able teach- ers, and all apparently was moving along smoothly. But Principal Cable on Tuesday of last week sudderly and mysteriously disappeared and his where abouts since that time are unknown. Mr. Cable got wind of the fact that a warrant was out for his arrest on the charge of attempting to commit a hein- ous crime and he forthwith took his de- parture, failing to leave any address be- hind him. On Tuesday Miss Baker, the assist- ant teacher, appeared before Justice H. I. J. Custer, of Benson, and preferred a charge of attempting to commit = rape,against the Principal. Miss Baker who is twenty-two years of age, alleges in her information that when she went into her room toretire on’ Sunday night, she discovered Mr. Cable under her bed. She immediately fled from the room and was followed by Cable, who caught her, dragged her back to the bedroom and endeavored to accomplish his purpose by brute strength, The young lady struggled bravely agains him and’ finally succeeded in breaking loose from her assailant and alarming Mr. and Mrs.'G. W. Cassler, with whom they both boarded. Cable then turned his attention to pleading with Miss Baker to take no legal steps against him, but she would not promise and finally made the information. Miss Baker, who is a model and high- ly respected young lady, was prostrated by this vile and desperate assault upon her honor, and is now at the home of her parents in Somerset. C. Foster Cable is twenty-three years of age and has been a successful teach- er in the schools of the county for sev- eral years. le was considered a bright, but rather eccentric young man.

The time for the Roddy execution is rapidly approaching, yet the condemn- ed men still maintain their peculiar de- meanor. The other day Sheriff Hartzell was in the jail talking to the Roddys, and just outside the steel grating through which the Roddys were talking wasthe steel traps, through which the Nicelys dropped to death. In the course John Roddy said, get out o here soon, anyway ; of the conversation “Well, Sheriff. we'll if the | Pardon Board doesn’t set us free we'll | go out through that,” pointing to the | death trap. The Sheriff then again reminded the | doomed men of the near approach of the day of execution and advised them to make their peace with their Maker, but they replied, “Oh, no; these relig- ious people swore us in here and we want nothing to do with them.” It seems that these men will thus go to their death. ie rin a a Children like it, it saves their lives.

An Oakland minister was called upon to marry a West Virginia couple at his home, one day last week, and after pro- ducing the necessary official documents the ceremony was performed by the good-hearted, generous divine, where- upon the Snake hunter handed him a Dollar bill and asked if he and his bride might remain for dinner. The godly man consulted his good wife,who consented, and began preparation of an excellent dinner. After enjoying the good din- ner, the happy couple left for the eve- ning train and went West, leaving the minister and his good wife minus two meals and not even a cool “thank you.” — — A torpid liver robs you of ambition and ruins your health.

Oakland Journal. On Tuesday morning Inst when the firm of Bolden & Brown opened up their furniture store, they discovered that an attempt had been made to fire their building. A large pile of excel sior had been placed against the rear hands of Constable Benson, of Benson, $door and some wood arranged to set the fire off, the pile had been thorough- ly uaturated with coal oil, and every thing had the appearance of a very bold attempt to fire the building, which is located and adjoins the Opera house on ‘the one side and the store and dwelling of J. O. Michael on the other, and which altogether form one of the best and most imposing business blocks in our town. The fiend was foiled in his attempt by a water spout which runs down the building directly above where the fire [was set, and which at times overflows and causes the water to fall exactly where the brand was set, and evidently at the time the fire was set, a copious shower set in, and but for the overflow of the water spout, there would have been one of the most serious conflagra- tions that our town has ever witnessed. We understand that a reward of $500 is offered for any information that will | lead to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrator of this dastardly attempt. ere — The New Observation Cars. grippe, and all throat and lung trou- | stage voice, and did Mephisto was surprisingly | Saturday night, April 9th. | | formation -as they found on the subject. | ; | No matter what kind of a cut you want, underclothing because you | healthier | Cars “Undine” Nos. 5 and 6, The new Observation | and “Bianca” on Trains i Trains on the Baltimore & Ohio RR. are the latest cars of this pattern from the Pullman shops.

It originated in San Jose county, California, and has so rapidly spread that it is already in our neighboring states, and we are even told that evidence of its presence is fruit raisers have not yet discovered a remedy for its ravages.

Fairmfont Index. The death of Rev. J. Wesley Webb, at Huntington, recalls a little incident on the political side of the reverend gentleman’s life that is During the famous Cleveland-Blaine campaign of 1884, the Rev. Mr. Webb, who was a staunch Democrat, took an active part. On the day of the elec- | tion the West Virginia Conference “of the Methodist Episcopal church was i holding its sessions in Wheeling. At | the night session when the news came that Blaine was elected, one of the ‘ delegates proposed that the long meter doxology be sung, and the whole gath- ering with the exception of Rev. Webb, joined in the singing. Later in the evering, as everyone will remember, the news flashed over the wires that Cleveland was to be the next President, and soon whisperings of a displeasing nature were going on among the brethren. When Rev.Webb received the news, it was inthe form of a telegram from easter: friends, and when the opportunity presented itself, he arose and made the announcements, | | | and asked that all join in singing the long meter doxology. No one came to his assistance and he sang the praises to God entirely alone, the large gather- ing being seemingly paralyzed during the proceedings. — It Puzzled Him. St. Joseph News. A man who went away from home some time ago to attend a convention of church people was struck with the beauty of the little town in which the gathering was held. He had plenty of time, and while wandering about walk- ed into the village cemetery. It was a beautiful place, and the delegate walk- ed around among the graves. He saw a monument, one of the largest in the cemetery, and read with surprise the inscription on it: “A Lawyer, and an Honest Man.” “The delegate scratched his head, and looked at the monument again. Ile read the inscription over and over. Then he walked all around the monu- ment and examined the grave closely. Another man inthe cemetery approach- ed and asked him: “Have you found the grave of an old friend?” “No,” said the delegate, “but I was wondering how they came to bury those two fellows in one grave.” { nificent scenery on all sides in perfect | The buffet is ever ready to | has been seen in this vicinity.
