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.

Singleton Kimmel, a well-known vet-
eran of the Civil War, died at his home
in New Lexington, this county, April
23d, 1906. During the war he served in
Co. H, 142 Pa. 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)

"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 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.

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. Sold by

The Pennwood Coal Company, re-
centiy granted a charter, has taken
possession of 1,300 acres of coal lands
in Black township, recently purchased
by the said corporation. 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.

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

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-

have tried alfalfa culture. but not with
much success. It requires a deep, loose

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.

Leased Highland Inn.
John B. Schlosser, of Pittsburg, has
leased the Highland Inn at Somerset,
and has already opened it for the com-
fort and convenience of guests. He

people, a large number of whom he
hopes to entertain this summer, says

Mo., writes T. J. Dwyer, now of Grays-
ville, Mo., “three of my customers were

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.

A Timely Story and a Good One.
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.
