THERE is nothing meaner in this
world than a woman who is a hater
and persecutor of her own sex. In
fact there is nothing else quite as
mean. Let some pure and virtuous
young woman be jilted by a shrewd,
designing, but unprincipled young man,
and you will always hear a lot of old
ring snorters and street gadders up-
holding the man or at least denouncing
the young woman, especially 1f she has
brought her betrayer to justice. Some
of these green, mean and goo-goo-eyed
monsters have been much in evidence
in this town since the Keim-Brum-
baugh breach of promise suit resulted
in a verdict for $9,250 for Miss Keim.

The Keim-Brumbaugh Breach of Promise | |
Case—Some Comments on The Trial |
and Impressions of the Same.
On Monday of last we were summon- |
ed to Huntingdon as a witness in the
above named case, and in this issue of
THE Star we will give a more complete
account of the trial and our impression
of it than we had time for last week.
The case was an intensely interesting
one to us, inasmuch, as the plaintiff,
Miss Cora Keim, is one of Salisbury’s
most _popular and prominent young
women. On the other hand, the de-
fendant, Prof. I. Harvey Brumbaugh, is
very prominent in Huntingdon, owing
to the fact that he is the acting presi-
dent of Juniata College, an institution
of learning located in that town. But
it did not take us long to learn that the
red-headed professor is far less popular
than prominent in the town of Hunt-
ingdon. We interviewed many people
while there, and in every instance we
found much sympathy for Miss Keim
and none whatever for the man who
appears to have been trifling with her
affections. We could feel it in our
bones that Miss Keim would win the
suit, hence when the jury returned a
verdict in her favor for $9,250, it was no
surprise to us.
The attorneys on both sides put up a
stubborn and hotly contested fight, but
it was plain to all spectators that Waite
and Henderson, the attorneys for the
plaintiff, had the best of it all through
the game. They are men of ability and
elicited the admiration of all, while the
attorneys on the other side seemed to
be a rather weak aggregation of the
disciples of Blackstone. There were
five of them on the Brumbaugh side,
we believe, but only two of them were
‘much in evidence.
The attorney who had the most to
say for the defense was an ancient
looking nondescript by the name of W.
H. Woods, who is a wearisome old
spouter and browbeater of witnesses.
It struck us that any man looking for
an attorney whose harrangue would
sicken and disgust any jury, and at the
same time sour milk in all the cellars
within three miles of the court house,
ought to employ old “Bill” Woods. He
is an old relic of the “profesh” that
seems to have a chronic diarrhoea of
words and a constipation of ideas. He
has a habit of asking questions, and be-
fore:the answer can be given, he will
utter a sort of grunt that sounds like
“hum” or “huh.” His plea to the jury
reminded us of an old-fashioned camp
meeting sermon. and it was real
“amoosin” to hear him allude to “that
there noble young man,” and “that
there fickle young wornan? or words to
that effect. Yes, it was “amoosin,” but”
it was also very tiresome.
Then there was the brilliant (?) Har-
vey M. Berkley, our own Harvey, a
brilliant (?) legal light from “amongst
the hills o’ Somerset.” We must com-
pliment him, at least, for having sense
enough to keep his face shut in the
court room, but he made good use of it
at the Liester House tables, wkere he
could be seen at the dinner hour with
both elbows braced on the table and
his hands holding onto both ends of a
mammoth roasting ear which he would
rapidly convey to the place it
would do the most good. Harvey
is a shady sort of a lawyer and
does all his fine work on the quiet, but
it does not speak well for him and his
faithful old sleuth, Virgil Saylor, who
made frequent trips to Salisbury to
secure skunk evidence that failed to
materialize.
But aside from having a little fun
with some of the attorneys, who always
have theirs in the court room with oth-
er people, we will add that we could
see very little ground for Mr. Brum-
baugh’s lawyers to do effective work
on, no matter what the efforts put
forth. The evidence in the defendant’s
favor sounded like evidence manufac-
tured for the occasion, and it is evi-
dent that the jury so regarded it. The
outcome of the case puts Prof. Brum-
baugh and his father in a very unenvi-
able position, and the college with
which they are identified is bound to
suffer in consequence.
It does us much good to know that
the “Frosty Sons of Thunder” will pro-
tect their fair daughters, and accursed,
thrice accursed be he who would do
them a wrong.

OUR NEXT CONGRESSMAN.
| Cooper Nominated Through an Agreement
with J. A. Berkey Who Withdrew in
Nominee's Favor.
Allen Foster Cooper, of Uniontown,
Pa., was on Tuesday nominated for |
Congress by the Republican conferees
of the Twenty-third Congressional dis-
trict of Lennsylvania, composed of Fay-
ette Somerset and Greene counties,
thereby breaking the deadlock which
has so long existed in this district.
The nomination was the result of an
agreement reached this week at the
Monongahela house between the con-
ferees of Fayette and Somerset coun-
ties, as a result of which J. A. Berkey,
Somerset’s candidate for the nomina-
tion, withdrew from the race in favor
of Mr. Cooper.
The result was reached on the first
ballot taken yesterday. It was also the
first ballot taken since the appoint-
ment of an additional conferee from
each county by State Chairman M. S.
Quay and the twenty-eighth ballot
taken since the attempt to break the
deadlock. S. A. Kendall was chairman
of the meeting and Maj. Thomas 8.
Crago, of Waynesburg, and J. Q. Van
Swearingen, of Uniontown, clerks. The
Fayette conferees were called first and
voted for their candidate, Mr. Cooper,
and when Somerset was called the con-
ferees of this county also voted for him.
The Greene county conferees were
taken by surprise, but Maj. Crago,how-
ever, immediately proposed to make
the nomination unanimous, which was
done, and the meeting was declared
adjourned.
The feature of the nomination was
the withdrawal of Mr. Berkey from the
race, as he has all along been regard-
ed as the strongest candidate, says the
Pittsburg Times. The conferees of
Fayette and Somerset both refused
last night to discuss the withdrawal,
simply stating that the agreement to
nominate Mr. Cooper was made in the
interest of the Republican party.
Allen Foster Cooper was born in
Franklin township, Fayette county,
about 40 years ago. being the son of
Joel Cooper, a well known farmer.
Mr. Cooper attended the public town-
ship schools and also taught in the
same schools. Later he became prin-
cipal of the Bellevernon (Pa.) public
schools. He attended the law school
of the University of Michigan at Ann
Arbor, Mich., and graduated from that
institution in 1888. Returning to Un-
jontown shortly after graduating he
formed a partnership with J. Q. Van
Swearingen, who was a class-mate of
his at the law shool, and this partner-
ship still exists. Mr. Cooper has al-
ways been an active worker in the Re-
publican party, but has never held any
office, neither has he been a candidate.
He deserves and will receive the loyal
support of all true Republicans, and to
Mr. Berkey belongs the credit of break-
ing the deadlock. In the interest of
party harmony Mr. Berkey has mag-
nanimously sacrificed his own worthy |
ambition, and this ought to, and we
believe will, bring about his nomination |
and election two years hence.

A Remarkable Record.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record. It has been in use
for over thirty years, during
time many million bottles have been
sold and used. It has long been the |
standard and main reliance in the treat-
ment of croup in thousands of homes,
in which it failed to effect a cure.
When given as soon as the child be-
comes hoarse or even as soon as the
croupy cough appears, it will prevent
the attack. It is pleasant to take, many
children like it. It contains no opium
or other harmful substance and may be
given as confidently to a baby as to an
adult. For sale by E. H. Miller.

In our issue of Sept. 4th we publish=
item concerning a proposed
B. & O. railroad, and stated what effect
the change would likely have. upon
Meyersdale if the course of the rmain
line of the road should be shifted north
and leave the ex-metropolis en a stub
road. In making mention of the pre-
posed change which has for some time
been considered in railroad circles, we
neither gloated over Meyersdale’s
threatened misfortune nor extended
any sympathy, but merely mention-
ed the ramor, which, by the way,
seems to be well founded, and which a¢
least one very prominent Meyersdale
business man told Ture Star is creat-
ing much uneasiness in that town. He
informed us, in fact, that he believed
the change would surely be made, and
owing to the interview, we wrote the
article which has thrown the Republi-
can and the Commercial both into con-
vulsions and caused them to make
jackassical utterances.
News items concerning the same pro-
posed railroad change have been ap-
pearing from time to time in the Pitts-
burg, Connellsville and other newspa-
pers, and in substance they are the
same as the one we published on Sept.
4th. But the small caliber journalists of
Meyersdale never get alarmed at any-
thing they see in public print unless
they see it in Tue Star. Then, if it
doesn’t suit them, they set up a great
howl, because they have learned that
what they see in Tie STAR is generally
true.
The Bishop basn’t been going off half
cocked to any great extent, but in this
instance we fear that the old serpent
Lucifer beguiled him and that he alse
did drink of the stuff called Peruna.
One of them sees premature sympathy
in our article, while the other sees the
opposite quality. Peruna, like whisky,
acts differently on different individuals.
One man will drink it and get crazy,
while the other will simply become a
d.f. In this instance, with both men,
it seems to have been a little of both.
Poor fellows!

Self Righteousness.
The other day we heard several
men in Meyersdale engaged in
arguing on religion, and during the
conversation one fellow who isn’t even
a good Sunday Christian said to anoth-
er chap in the party who makes ne
profession of religion: “YT am better
than you are because you never at-
tend church.” At the same time, how-
ever, the professed Christian who made
the aforesaid utterance, openly admit-
ted that so far as common faults were
concerned, such as swearing, drinking,
| ete., both were alike. In fact the church
member claimed no better average in
| his daily walk and general deportment
| than the other fellow is entitled to, but
he set up the claim that he was better
| than the sinner for the simple reason
that he professed Christianity, even if
| he didn’t practice it.
Of course everybody present laugh-
| ed,for the reason that the Phariseeical
| gentleman referred to was seen in one
of the saloons guzzling down “bug
juice” the very evening before and the
very next evening after partaking of
the Holy Sacrament. No wonder the
the crowd laughed.
Now, we all know what the Bible
says.concerning those who go to the
Lord’s table and eat and drink un-
worthily, and some of us, at least, have
read in Holy Writ of that other Phari-
see who went to the temple to pray,
and while there proclaimed himself
better than the Publicans and sinners,
at the same time thanking God that he
was better than the non-professing
class. But the Bible tells us that the
poor Publican was better than the fel-
low who was filled with self-righteous-
ness. It is dead easy to be a saloon
Christian, but that class can’t fool God.
The true Christian has the respect of
all men, but the spurious article is
worse than the non-professor of relig-
ion, as can be proven by many passages
of Scripture which the self-righteous
have either never read
gard for.
