Dennis Flesher, who for some time has been firing on the B. & O. railroad, fell from his engine, yesterday, and was Hadly injured. He has been taken to a ‘hospital, where, we hope, he will soon recover. Geo. K. Warn, of Meyersdale, was re- ‘eently admitted to the Somerset Bar Association.” He will open a law office in Meyersdale. Mr. Warn practiced Jaw in Elk county, this state, two years :befors coming to this county. Those people who argue that to whip a wife-beater will degrade him, must ‘have a strange idea of degradation. A: man who will beat his wife is already .s0 low down that he would have to ‘slide up hill to get into hell. —Ex. Sam McClure, who is again located .in Buffalo, orders TuE STAR sent to his address. He writes as follows: “Kindly forward the ‘Luminary’ to the address below. Be sure to send the issue of March 23d.

Its elevation is 3,000.7 feet above sea level. Backache is never known to those persons who take an occasional dose of ——_——m—_——_—_—le———————————————— May we hope that out of the religious awakening that is rolling over the country, some of the already sanctified mortals may be awakened to the fact that it is quite an essential element of genuine Christianity to pay their honest debts, where they can do so? There are un whole lot of such people who probably think they can deadbeat their way into heaven, just as they are trying to work their fellowmen.— Rockwood Gazette. It is difficult to cure a cough or free yourself from the discomforts of a cold unless you move the bowels. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar acts on the bowels and drives all cold out of the system. Then comes its soothing effect and strengthening influence upon the throat and lungs. For Croup, Whoop- ing Cough, Colds, and all Lung and Bronchial affections, no remedy is equal to the original Laxative Honey and Tar. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 8-1 The Middle Pennsylvania Peniten- tiary is created by a bill introduced by Mr. Flynn, of Elk county, in the House of Representatives at Harrisburg. on Wednesday, of last week, which bill provides for the appointment of a com- mission of seven to select a site for the penitentiary and appropriates $15,000 for the purpose. The bill cites the overcrowded condition of both the Eastern and Western Penitentiaries, and asserts that for historical reasons the former should not be removed from Philadelphia, its present location. These counties shall comprise the Middle district within which the new peniten- tiary shall be erected: McKean, Elk, Clearfield, Cambria, Blair, Bedford, Cumberland, Adams, Potter, Cameron, Clinton. Fulton, Centre, Huntingdon, Mifflin, Perry, Juniata, Franklin, Tioga, Lycoming, Union and Snyder. Croup is quickly relieved, and Whooping Cough will not “run its course” if you use the original Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar. This Cough Syrup is different from all others be- cause it acts on the bowels. You can not cure Croup and Whooping Cough until you rid the system of all conges- tion, by working off the cold through a copious action of the bowels. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar does this, and cures all Coughs, Croup, Whooping Cough, ete. No opiates. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 Rev. Albert K. Travis and Miss C. Katherine Seavey, of Derry, New Hampshire, were quietly married at {he bride’s home on Wednesday, March 15th, 1905. Only the immediate friends of the bride’s family were present. The couple had a pleasant wedding tour, making short visits to Boston, New York, Washington and Pittsburg. The members of the Salisbury M. E. church, and friends to the number of 150, gave Rev. Travis and bride a most cordial reception in the Red Men's hall, Saturday evening last. The Salisbury Orchestra was present and rendered some excellent music. The refresh- ments were of the finest, and the affair was greatly enjoyed by all present. As the bride and groom were leaving for home, the ladies presented them with a very fine cake. We wish the couple much happiness and prosperity, and we trust that they may reside a long time in Salisbury, where they have many admiring friends. BY THE TONIC ROUTE. The pills that act as a tonic, and not as a drastic purge, are DeWitt’s Little Early Risers. They cure Headache, Constipation, Biliousness. etc. Early Risers are small, easy to take and easy to act—a safe pill. Mack Hamilton, hotel clerk at Valley City, N. D., says: “Two bottles cured me. of chronic con- stipation.” Sold by E.H. Miller. 4-1 Another Act of Vandalism. Last Friday night some person or persons entered the Meager mine and broke about all the tools in the place. That is more evidence that trade union- ism is not yet dead in this vicinity, but it is also evidence that the miners’ union is on its last legs. Such acts on the part of union strikers always give organized labor a black eye. INCREDIBLE BRUTALITY. It would have been incredible brutal- ity if Chas. F. Lemberger, of Syracuse, N.Y. had not done the best he could for bis suffering son. “My boy,” he says, ‘cut a fearful gash over his eye, so I applied Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, which quickly healed it and saved his eye. Good for burns and uleers, too. Only 25c. at E. H. Miller's drug store. 4-1 THEY ALL HELP. Smile. Be frank. Keep busy. Be cheerful. What it Costs. “In going to law you are a loser if: you win,” said a disgusted litigant the other day after haying lost a suit in which he was concerned. This idea is emphnsized somewhat by a reference to the recent cross suits from Besides the great expense to the connty, the court costs to six of the prosecu- tors and defendants runs over $8C0, as follows: Ferd Sann, $181.92; Ed, Keane (“not guilty but pay the costs,”) $154.11; Robert Lochrie (“not guilty but pay the costs”) $222.73; William Boyle, $61.50; Martin Blucas, $176.24 ; Steve Oshnski, $20.35. In addi- tion to the above, private counsel was employed in the cases, so it must be evident that it requires at least four figures to state the costs of a fight brought on to see “who is who— Standard. Boswel!, Cl reid CHAMPION LINIMENT FOR RHEUMATISM. Chas. Drake, a mail carrier at Chap- inville, Conn., says: “Chamberlain’s Pain Balm is the champion of all lini ments. The past year I was troubled a great deal with rheumatism in my shoulder. After trying several cures the storekeeper here recommended this remedy and it completely cured me.” There is no use of anyone suffering from that painful ailment when this liniment can be obtained for a small sum. One application gives prompt relief and its continued use for a short time will produce a permanent cure. For sale by E. H. Miller. 4-1 Our View of it Exactly. Why should the courts of Pennsyl- vania be dispensatories of licenses for the sale of intoxicants? Why not place the burden of that onerous priv- ilege upon the people, where it belongs, and not contaminate the judiciary with the nefarious traffic? Let us have a local option law that will give the people of each city, borough and town- ship the privilege of voting on the question of license or no license. In the absence of such a law, why should not the court place the matter up to the people, thus laying the responsi- bility where it belongs? If we, ascom- munities, are to be profit sharers in the whiskey business, as we certainly are in the appropriation of license money to the public treasuries, we ought to be permitted to say whether the partnership is agreeable or not.— Rockwood Gazette. A DISTRUCTIVE FIRE. To draw the fire out of a burn, or heal a cut without leaving a scar, use De- Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve. A specifie for piles. Get the genuine. J. L. Tucker, editor of the Harmonizer, Centre, Ala., writes: “I have used De- Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve in my family for Piles, cuts and burns. It is the best salve on the market. Every family should keep it on hand.” Sold by E. H. Miller. 4-1 Will Write County History. Mr. W. H. Welfley, a well known res- ident of Somerset, has been employed by a prominent publishing firm to write a history of Sowerset county. There probably could not have been made a better selection for this work, as the gathering of historical data has been almost a hobby with Mr. Welfley for a number of years, and his accu- mulation certainly exceeds any other in the county. But even with his vast collection, he feels that there must be further valuable historical information concerning early history stored away in the closets or memories of the older residents of the several districts of the county, and for this Mr. Welfley n<k- the Standard to appeal in his behalf If you have any historical data that you think ought to be preserved in the forthcoming work, send it to Mr. Welf- ley.—Somerset Standard.
