Mr. Perry is a train dispatcher for the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. He is a brother of Dr. E. H. Perry, of this place. There are now 47 prisoners in the Somerset jail; but if all the people were in that jail that ought to be there, the sheriff would have to pack them in like sardines in a box, and then there wouldn’t be room enough for all who deserve to be there. Luke Prynn and his little niece, Miss Myrtle James, started for New York, Monday evening, where they expected to take ship for England, yesterday. They will remain in England for an in- definite period, but expect to return to America again, we understand.

Vol. Infantry, and also in the 6th Regt. Pa. Heavy Artillery. He is survived by a wife, three scns and three,daughters. . May 9th and 10th, 18068, will long be remembered as two days when the ground was white with snow here “mongst the hills o’ Somerset,” and apple trees in bloom at the same time. It is now in order for some poet to arise and write a poem entitled, “When the Snow is on the Apple Bloom.” The gums and resins obtained from pine trees have long been recognized as highly beneficial in the treatment of backache, kidney and bladder troubles. Pine-ules is the name of a new med- icine, the principle ingredients of which come from the pine forests of our own native land. Sold by Elk Lick Phar- macy. 6-1 The following conversation was over- heard in one of our families a few nights ago. “Willie,” said the little sister, “I prayed for you last night.” “What did you say,” asked Willie. “I said, O Lord, take pity on Willie, he’s such a d—n little devil,” replied the little girl, solemnly. Lanark (IIL) Gazette. "Mrs. Mary McKittrick, aged 108 years, the oldest woman in western Pennsylvania, committed suicide by cutting her throat with a penknife at the home of her son in Uniontown, Monday of last week. She frequently expressed a wish that God would take her, saying that in her helpless con- dition she was a burden to herself and others. One day recently a big, overgrown youth out in the Durst corner, near the Maryland line, went to Charles Durst’s place and cut the tail off of a heifer. Of course the young fellow “just did it for fun,” but it was most cruel and dangerous fun, and he ought to be sent to the Huntingdon Reformatory. where they teach such fellows a better code of morals. A liquid ‘cold cure for children that is leasant. harmless, and effective is ee’s Laxative Honey and Tar. Super- ior to all other cough syrups or cold remedies because it acts on the bowels.

Sold by Elk Lick Pharmacy. 6-1 A western farmer claims that he is now operating a cement block machine which enables him to make tile at a cost of two cents each for the small tile. It’s coming—the time when the farmer will make his own tile, tanks, barn floors, fence posts and lots of other things, and do it for less than he pays for the perishable things which he now buys and uses. The community wastes little sym- pathy on those who are robbed by strange peddlers. A safe rule is to go to a legitimate dealer when you want to buy something. He is a permanent resident, and it is to his interest to give you the worth of your money. The peddler is here today and gone tomor- row. It is to his interest to rob you, and he generally does it. Samuel R. Fike, an aged and re- spected citizen of Summit township, died very suddenlv of heart disease, last Saturday evening. Deceased was aged 74 years. He is survived by his wife and two sons. He was twice mar- ried. The surviving wife is a daughter of Elias Peck, of Richardson county, Neb., but who lived in Elk Lick town- ship before emigrating te the west, about 33 years ago. The Quemahoning Sentinel, the latest publication born in the journal- istic field of Somerset county, has reached our exchange table. It is a neat 8-column quarto, well filled with advertising matter and interesting news. The new paper is published at Boswell, by Chas. F. Overacker, founder of the late Rockwood Gazette. Boswell needs a newspaper, and we wish the Sentinel a successful carier. Walter Easton came home on Tues- day from Quebec, Canada, in which vicinity he was recently doing business for a New York Drill company in whose employ he has been for the past few years. He had been down in South Carolina, but was sent to Canada later. and next week he will go to Duluth, Minn. Some people blame Walter for bringing the cold wave with him from Canada that has been making u- shiver this week. N. E. Berkey, candidate for State Senator, was in town yesterday look- ing after his political interests. If Norman is elected he will make a good representative, as he is a young man of fine ability, energetic and honorable. When he was Prothonotary of this county he made an enviable record in that office for efficiency and for the uniform courtesy and accommodation extended to all who had business to transact there. The tar that is contained in Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar is harmless. It is not coal tar, but is obtained from the pine trees of our own native forests. Bee’s Laxative Honey and Tar is the best remedy for colds because it acts on the bowels—thus expelling all colds from the system. Bee’s is the original Laxative Honey and Tar, and is best for coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough, lung and bronchial affections. Sold by Elk Lick Pharmacy. 8-1 The wife of Col. Robt. P. Cummins, of Somerset, died at her home in that town on Friday, April 27th, 1906. She wis aged 78 years, 9 months and 25 days, and is survived by three sons and two daughters. Her husband was killed in the battle of Gettysburg, July 2nd, 1863, while gallantly leading a charge across that historic field. Col. Cummins was colonel of the 142 Ragt. Pa. Vols. at tne time of his death, and when the Civil War broke out he was the Sheriff of this county. In order for farmers to receive re- muneration for sheep killed by dogs, according to the latest law governing that subject, they must qualify before a magistrate, justice of the peace or alderman that they made an effort to discover whose dogs were responsible for the mischief, and that the carcasses of the sheep were buried within twenty- four hours of the time the audit of the damage was made. It is provided, however, that owners of sheep killed by dogs shall be paid 50 cents for bury- ing each sheep so killed. A dose of Pine-ules at bed time will usually relieve backache, before morn- ing. These beautiful little globules are soft gelatine coated, and when moisten- ed and placed in the mouth you can’t keep from swallowing them. Pineeules contain neither sugar nor alcohol—just gums and resins obtained from our own native pine forests, combined with other well known bladder, kidney, blood and backache remedies.

The land lies near Rockwood, and they soon expect to have an output of 1,500 tons each day. The line lies beside the main line of the B. & O., as well as that of the Somerset & Cambria branch. The officers of the Somipsuy all reside in New York, while the manager, J. V. McKenna, has his home in Cumberland, Md., but is prepsring to locate on the new fleld, says the Somerset Democrat. friends the rapid growth of that kind Mr. John J. Keim brought a bunch of | alfalfa clover to Tue STAR office today that was sent to him from Kansas, by his son Harvey, to show his eastern of clover in the Sunflower state. Al- though it is yet very early in the sea- son, the alfalfa was 18 inches tall out there when the sample was plucked Kansas farmers mow their alfalfa fields three times in a season, and California farmers raise five crops of it in a sea- son. Several farmers in this locality have tried alfalfa culture. but not with much success. It requires a deep, loose soi], where the roots can grow to =a length of several feet. The J. L.. Tempest Dramatic Co., now filling a week’s engagement in Hay’s opera house, is drawing good audiences. The company is composed of very nice people and most excellent actors. So far they have played “A Waif’s Devo- tion,” “Queen of the Harem” and * East Lyon.” Each production was very good, apd when the latter was renderad, Iast night, the house was so crowded that some people had to stand. The play tonight will be “The Vagabond’s Wife.” Interesting plays will also be rendered Friday and Saturday even- ings, and a fine matinee will be given at 2 o’clock, Saturday afternoon. Se- cure your seats early, for the house will be crowded. Last Saturday evening Thas. Coch- rane, Jr., and W. N. Lenhart got into an altercation. Lenhart struck Coch- rane on the head with a beer bottle, in- flicting an ugly scalp wound, and al- most knocking Cochrane senseless. Lenhart then took to his heels, but Cochrane recovered from the shock of the blow in time to catch his assailant and give him a thorough mauling. Both were arrested and put in the codler, but were liberated before morn- ing, and on Tuesday evening they ap- peared before Horse Collar Stephen, our Burgess, who fined them some- thing like $6,50 apiece. Lenhart will be very lucky if he escapes arrest for assault and battery with intent to kill, as in law beer bottles, stones, clubs, brass knuckles, etc., are all classed as deadly weapons, and many a man has been shot by persons sledged with such things, and many others have been sent to penitentiary for resorting to such cowardly methods of fighting. No one can blame Cochrane for de- fending himself. DEATH FROM APPENDICITIS decreased in the same ratio that the use of Dr. King’s New Life Pillsin- creases.

He was formerly caterer at the Duquesne Club, and is well known by Pittsburg people, a large number of whom he hopes to entertain this summer, says the Connellsville Courier. eee Strenuous Jenner. Jobn Speicher and Noah Johnson, two old sports out near Glessner, work- ed up a wrestling match last Saturday, the stakes which were, their watches, and the best two out of three falls taking the weger. John won the first round and Noah the second. The third was a bad one, for John fell and broke his right leg just above the ankle. Dr. R. O. Crist, of Boswell, be- ing present, set the fracture, and Mr. Speicher is getting on reasonably well. Both men are above fifty years of age. Noah claimed the stakes.—Q. Sentinel. FORTUNATE MISSOURIANS. “When I was a druggist, at Livonia, Mo., writes T. J. Dwyer, now of Grays- ville, Mo., “three of my customers were permanently cured of consumption by Dr. King’s New Discovery. and are well and strong today. One was trying to sell his property and move to Arizona, but after using New Discovery a short time he feund it unnecessary to do so. I regard Dr. King’s New Discovery as the most wonderful medicine in exist- ence.” Surest Cough and Cold cure and Throat and Lung healer. Guar- anteed by E. H. Miller, druggist. 50c. and $1. Trial bottle free. 6-1 Bad ‘‘Nigger’’ Shoots Rockwood Policeman. Edward Spangler, the Rockwood po- liceman, iz at the Connellsville hospital suffering from a dangerous wound in the right shoulder. Monday morning a B. & O. brakeman complained to the Rockwood authorities that two negroes had boarded a freight train at Hynd- man, and when the members of the crew attempted to put them off, they opened fire with a revolver. When Spangler attempted to arrest the “coons,” one of them fired on him with a revolver with the result above men- tioned. Although several reports of the arrest of Spangler’s assailants have been circulated, they are still at large. Reports from the hospital are encour- aging, and the wounded officer will re- cover.—Somerset Democrat. Be Loyal to Your Own Town. The inordinate love of the dollar too often makes men unpatriotic and dis- loyal to the town and community in which they live. To save a little they will send away from home for supplies, refuse a dollar toward public improve- ments in their own town, belittle and degrade home enterprise, and yet be the first to advance the price of their property as a result of the patient, self- sacrificing work of others. Loyalty to your own town is just as commendable a type of patriotism as one can find, and no matter how much your patriot- ism boils over on the Fourth of July in a general way, if you are disloyal in little things to your own town, you are a poor citizen of the republic, you are like him who makes long prayers in the chnreh, and jaws his wife and neg- lects his children at home. And all this applies with as much force to the merchant who sends to another town for his printed matter as it does to the people who send their money to the city department store for goods they could and should buy at ome.

Another great coal strike threatens, and that fact adds interest to “A Les- son in Labor,” a strong story by Rich- ard Washburn Child in the May Mec- Clure’s. The plot involves a newly organized Union, a Boss, and a walking delegate from the City, and the com- bination ends in drama and disaster, and then a final resolution of all the difficulties. The foreman who tells the story is one of Mr. Child’s best char- acters. He is quite irresistible, and even when he comes to the most seri- ous portions of his narrative, he can’t quite keep away from you his appre- ciation of the humor in everything.
