On Wednesday evening, Sept. 24th, a very pretty wedding took place at the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Loechel, who reside in Garrett county, Md., about four miles south of Salis- bary. The contracting parties were Clar- ence, the eldest son of Mr. Loechel,and Olive Eliza, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jonas E. Gnagey. late of Grantsville, Mad. The ceremony was performed in the presence of nearly 100 invited guests by the Rev. E. 8. Johnston, D. D., pas- tor of St. John’s Lutheran church of Salisbury, Pa. At the appointed hour an orchestra composed of the Knecht brothers, of West Salisbury, and H. G. Withelmi and Mort. A. Wagner, of Sal- isbury, began playing a beautiful wed- ding march, and the betrothed couple entered the handsome parlor, beauti- fully attired, and accompanied by Mr. Max Bowman and Miss Evora Loechel, who acted as groomsman and brides- maid respectively.” Both couples made an exceedingly handsome and refined appearance, and the ceremony was per- formed in the neat and impressive manner for which the aforesaid good parson is noted. The whole house was beautifully decorated with flowers, plants and the beautifully tinted au- tumn leaves for which this locality is noted at this season of the year, and all in all, it was one of the most tasti- ly arranged weddings we have ever attended. After the large audience had shower- ed their congratulations and blessings upon the happy young couple, all par- took of a sumptuous feast which was in readiness for the numerous guests. The supper was simply grand and re- flected great credit on the competent cooks, waiters and the good host and hostess. That all did ample justice to the great spread of good things is a foregone conclusion. After supper the evening was spent in merry converse and the usual en- joyments indulged in on such occasions, and it was after the midnight hour when all of the guests retired to their homes. The presents were many and elegant, and all went home feeling that they had a good time and that each of the newly wedded couple had drawn a capital prize in the person of the other. The groom is one of the best young men in all this locality—handsome, ro- boust, industrious, a dutiful son of good habits who will be an ideal husband. The bride—what can we say to do her justice? Handsome? Yes, and love- ly, too. She has the beauty of a Cleo- patra, the form of a Diana, and in her handsome countenance is the imprint of all that is pare, lovely, virtuous, steadfast, prudent and discreet, all of which virtures she is known to possess to the fullest degree. To have such a wife for a companion is to be rich be- yond the dreams of avarice, no mat- ter whether the couple is in posses- sion of a dellar or a million of them. We are exdeedingly proud that the fair bride is ou cousin, and we are just as proud of the young man of, her choice. May good fortune, good deeds, peace and happiness attend them all through life. Look Out For Fever. Billiousness and liver disorders at this season may be prevented by cleans- ing the system with DeWitt’s Little Early Risers. These famous little pills do not gripe. They move the bowels gently, but copiously, and by reason of the tonic properties, give tone and strength to the glands. E. H. Miller. A DOGGASTED OCCURRENCE. The Doggonedest Dog Story that You Ever Went Any Place. It is a rule among newspapers not to publish anonymous communications, but we have decided to publish one that was mailed to Tne Star several days ago, because it is the doggonedest dog story that we ever went any place. The communication is postmarked West Salisbury, but is headed Elk Lick. There is no signature to it, and following we reproduce it as nearly as we can, using the same orthography, punctuation and general construction as that used by the writer: elk lick : sept 24 192 dear enter would you please put a fue lines in the sumer set county star there was a dog came into henry laupert house last wensday on the 24 of sept | and ran around the chair and jump- ed up on the bed and Mrs. laupert ran out and she ran in the room and the cook ran out and got a stick and came in to make the dog get down and he made after her and she ran out side and call for Mr fuller and he came run- ing with the ax and the oldest boy was skird hafe to death we thought the dog was mad and the dog went down to deary house the next dor naber and went in the saller and the cook and the ladie of the house was jumping up and down on the floor trying to make the dog go out and he wouldendnt and they went down and throw stones in throw the window. ——— Never Ask Advice.

Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar, the greatest throat and lung remedy, it cures coughs and colds quickly. E. H.

That no effort is being made toward the erection of the kind of a school house we need. That we have a lot of old mossbacks in Salisbury that should have died many years ago for the good of the town. That we also have some of the best people in the world here in Salisbury.

That THE STAR is not afraid to hew to the line, let the chips fall where they will. That it makes all the difference: im the world whose ox is gored.

That some Republicans are good Re- publicans only when their friends win at the primaries, but when they find themselves in the minority they want to bolt the nominees of that grand old party that we owe all our prosperity to —the Republican party. That a man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. That a friend in need is a friend in- deed, but not always appreciated. That the way of the transgressor is hard and that he who constantly looks for trouble invariably finds more than he is looking for. That Salisbury has a lot of soft-pated maidens that are going to hades as fast as indulgent parents and their own foolish desires can hustle them along. That the assertions made by this pa- per are usually so all-fired true that they hurt, and that the wicked often flea when no one is pursuing them. That Salisbury is producing some good men and women as well as a lot of candidates for prison cells and houses of prostitution.

Somerset Capital in Pittsburg Coal Deal. Application has been made at the State department at Harrisburg for a charter for the Bessemer Coal and Coke Company, whose capital will be $500, 000. The coal which this company will develop and operate is a tract of 2,000 acres within fifteen miles of Pittsburg. There are two veins, consisting of the famous Pittsburg gas and coking coal, one of which shows a thickness of four feet and the other eight feet. The mining rights cost $200 per acre.

Pennsylvania Railroad are Said to Have Decided on That Move. | Connellsville Courier. There is talk of completing the South Penn railroad on which the Vanderbilt interests a number of years ago spent $20,000,000. The line would have been a competing one for the Pennsylvania and was shut off by their purchase. Now the Pennsylvania have use for the road. The South Penn road is admit- ted to be the natural route across the State, being shorter by 65 miles than the present main line of the Pennsylva- nia. The need of a sherter route to the East, and more particularly addi- tional trackage is a growing problem the Pennsylvania officials. Be- tween Altoona and Pittsburg, where the additional room is mostly required, the company are unable to secure ground for the enlargement of facili- ties. Passing as it does through coops, ed-up passageways across the Alle- ghenies, the great system has practie- ally reached the limit of reseurces and are still erying for more room toilay tracks for the handling of Busingsuut of the Pittsburg territory. For these * reasons and for the additional ene tht the Wabash promises to become a com- petitor of the Pennsylvania to the East, President Cassatt and his co-workers are seriously contemplating the com- pletion of the South Penn project. Three years would be required to put the road in shape for use. At Harris- burg piers for a bridge across the Sus- quehanna are still standing. From that point the road nearly paralleled the Cumberland Valley to a point near Newville. Then it took a straight course across the State, passing through Fulton, Bedford, Somerset and West- moreland counties, thence to Pittsburg, connecting with the West Penn Divis- ion. Eight or ten long and expensive tunnels were required in the work. Some of these were partially completed and the road about half finished when the Pennsylvania and the Vanderbilts reached an agreement that resulted in abandoning the projeet. The partially completed tunnels are in good coudition and it is said by rail- road men that the South Penn could be completed in lbss than three years. Pennsylvania officials are not disposed to confirm the reports, but the admit that it appeared to be the only solution of the diffieulty the company are now in, and it seemed to be they only way they have out of the.inereasing trouble.
