A very disastrous wreck occurred on
the B. & O., last Saturday, somewhere
between Sand Pateh and Cumberland,
caused by a collision of a local freight
and another train. One of the firemen
was killed and a negro tramp had a
leg cut off. Several other persons were
also more or less injured. The wreck
was the outcome of a confusion of or-
ders.
One of the best conducted hotels in
Pennsylvania is the Somerset house,
conducted by genial George IH. Tay-
man, in Somerset. Landlord Tayman
is peculiarly fitted for the hotel busi-
ness, and no man could do more for
the comfort and proper entertainment
of his guests. The Bomerset house is a
favorite resort and merits its immense
patronage.
A year ago when Admiral Dewey was
being condoled with on being ordered
to the distant China waters, he an-
swered: “You need not condole me,
gentlemen. The government will not
stand this Cuban foolishness much
longer, and we will have something to
do. I will come back again, but some
fine morning I will take the Philippines
before breakfast.” The Admiral was
good enough to keep his promise.
Sheriff Hartzell, of Somerset, and
Train Dispatcher Gould, of Rockwood,
spent a day last week among the
“speckled beauties” in the mountgin
streams of Jenner township, and came
home in the evening with a fine catch
of trout. The Sheriff had 124 and Mr.
Gould 115. Each gentleman had his
young son along, and the boys claim
they caught a number of the fish, in-
cluding the “big one.”—Somerset Stan-
dard.
Last Sunday patriotic services were
held in some of the churches of our
town. The sermons were full of pa-
triotism, and the singing of patriotic
songs was also a prominent feature of
the services. We believe such services
should be held frequently in all the
churches of the United States, in times
of peace as well as in times of war. To
cultivate patriotism, love of country
and obedience to our laws is a part of
true Christianity.

Just as we are about to go to press
we are informed that Mrs. James Rus-
sell, of West Salisbury, was thrown
from a buggy and badly hurt, the acci-
dent having been caused by a run-away
horse, in the vicinity of Pen-Mar. Dr.
Speicher was immediately telephoned
to come to C. T. Lee's, where the in-
jured woman was taken to
the doctor’s arrival. We have not
yet learned the nature or extent of
Mrs. Russell’s injuries, but hope they
are not serious.
A Missouri orator is said to have got
off the following: “We live in a land
of high mountains and high taxes, low
valleys and low wages, big crooked
statesmen,
drunks, big pumpkin-heads, silver
streams that gambol in the mountains
and pious politicians who gamble in |
the night, roaring cataracts and roar-
ing orators, fast horses and fast young |
men and girls, fast, faster, fastest-sharp
lawyers,sharp financiers, and sharpened
shoes, noisy children, fertile plains that |
lie like sheets of water, and thousands
of newspapers that lie like thunder.
Some miscreant stole a horse and
buggy for Morgan Williams, a few
nights ago, in Meyersdale.. The horse
had been secured to a hitching post,
but when the driver came to take him
away, the horse and buggy were both
missing. Both were found the next
day aloug the river below Meyersdale,
and the horse was so stiff that he could |
| hardly be induced to move.
{ mal had evidently been nearly run to
death by some one who wanted a fast |
ride. It is hoped that the
crime will yet be convicted and pun-
ished.

The Atchison Globe says: “A few
nights ago tramps appeared at the
bridge office and said that they wanted
to cross to the Missouri side, but had
only five cents. Cy. Smith, the toll
collector, refused to let them cross. as
the fare is five cents for each footman.
They went away, but in a few minutes
one of them returned and asked Smith
if a man was allowed to cross the bridge
with all he could carry. lle was in-
formed that he was, and in a few min-
utes showed up with the other tramp
on his back. He paid five cents and
continued across the bridge carrying
his tramp friend.”
There are women who are comely,
there are women who are homely,
though be careful how the latter thing
you say. There are women who are
wealthy, there are women who are
healthy, there are women who will
have their own way. There are women
who are truthful, there are women who
are youthful,—was there ever any wo-
man who was old? There are women
who are sainted, there are women who
are painted, there are women who are
worth their weight in gold. There are
women who are tender,there are wom-
en who are slender, there are women
who are large, fat and red. There are
women who have married, there are
women who have tarried, there are
women who are talkless—but they are
dead. —Ex. ,

|
The early pioneer mothers of Tlli-
| babies quiet while they were busy
| working the garden patch, doing their
{ housework or “chinking” the cabin.
Tying a string to a chunk of fat pork,
| they would give the meat to the child |
| to suck, The other end of the string |
they would tie to the child’s toe. Then,
when sucking the meat, if it sucked
too hard and choked, it would natural-
ly kick, and out would come the meat.
A traveler one day happened to stop at
a double cabin, and as luck would have
both wives who were working in
the garden were the mothers of twins.
As he stepped to the cabin door the
sight he there beheld of flying feet and
chunks of pork was so ridiculous that
he told of the scene wherever he went,
and the settlers of the neighborhood
were ever after referred to as “Suck-
ers.” As the settlement enlarged and
new settlers came in the name fol-
lowed them until it became a common
i thing to refer to anyone who lived with-
the boundaries of the state: as a
| “Sucker.”

New Postage StAmbS,
The Trans-Mississippi postage stamps
have been placed on sale. The stamps
are about the size of the Columbian
| issue. They were issued to commem-
orate the Omaha exposition. The de-
signs have for a central figure some-
thing illustrative of the agricultural
and industral development of the region
west of the Mississippi river. There
are nine demonstrations, the designs
| being named as follows: One cent,
{ “Marquette on the Mississippi;”’ two
cent,“Farming in the West ;” four cent,
“Indian hunting Buffalo;” five cent,
“Fremont on the Rocky Mountains.”
| The three cent stamp represents a body
|
across the prairies. The cent stamp
has a picture of an immigrant and his
family in a “prairie schooner.” The
fifty cent stamp shows a mining pros-
pector with his pack mules. “Western
enttle in a Storm” is the title of the de-
sign on the $1 stamp. The $3 stamp
shows a picture of the Eads bridge at
St. Louis.
