He resided here about seven years ago, and was pastor of the Salisbury Breth- ren church at that time. Rev. Mackey is a speaker of fine ability, and his old parishoners and old-time friends are all glad to have him once more among us. His good wife, who is also very popular here, is with her husband on this visit. William A. Brydon, aged 69, at one time a prominent coal operator, a form- er member of the Maryland Lagisla- ture, former president of the Allegheny county school board, and for eight years chief bookkeeper in the sub- treasury at Baltimore, died last week at his home, “Borderside,” near Bloom- ington, Md. He leaves a widow, one daughter and six sons, including John C. Brydon, of Cumberland, general manager of the Davis Coal and Coke Company. The “Twinkler” is away late in mak- ing its appearance, this week. There are several reasons for this. First, one of our printers was absent from the of- fice for one day. Second, another of the hands is suffering from a bad case of grip. Third, a lot of our advertisers got around with a change of advertis- ing copy at the very last minute. Fourth, the editor has been about half gick himself, all week, but here’s your paper, just the same. It’s a trifle late, but full of news. The Somerset Democrat came out last week in a brand new Easter gown, or rather with a new dress of type, and changed from the old blanket sheet 9-column folio form to a neat 6-column quarto. The initial number of the new form has a handsome Easter cover in colors, and the ehange adds much to that paper’s convenience and good ap- pearanee. We congratulate Editor Coffroth on his improved paper. and feel sure he will never regret having made the change. A man from Mexico was here several days ago to examine the engines made by the Improved Traction Engine Company. He had heard of the fame of the Twentieth Century engine, man- ufactured here, and came to inspect the same. He was well pleased, and may place an order for a 50 IH.

In fact the company will likely get orders for a number of their engines to be the visitor had to say. fair prices, especially his some of which brought as high as 70 The sale at T.

Livengood the re- cording angel at both sales. Tom Sufall, who held a job on THE Stak for about five years, was a wel- come guest at Tie star office and at the editorial mansion, last Friday. He is now employed by the Meyersdale Republican, but for some time has not been doing much type-setting, owing to lead poison, which sometimes hits printers hard. Tom didn’t say a word about finely bred bird dogs while he was here, but we take it for granted that he still owns one or two of that kind, for what would life be to Tom without a “dorg?” Grover Clevelad was 70 years old on Monday of last week. In 1882, atthe age of 45 years, he was elected Govern- or of New York by nearly 200,000 ma- jority, which made him the logical Dem- ocratic candidate for President. He was elected to the Presidency in 1884, de- feated in 1888, and again successful in in 1892 He is the only President the Democrats have elected since James Buchanan. He is the only ex-Presi- dent now living, and resides with his family at Princeton, New Jersey, where, as elsewhere, he is respected by all. Last Saturday night an ugly fight took place between Salisbury and Boynton, in which several Salisbury youths were the principals. As a re- sult, one of the lads got a thorough mauling, while two of the others were hauled up before “Squire” Lowry for a hearing. The case went no farther, as the fathers of the two boys arrested paid all costs and salved the wounds of the walloped lad with a $5.00-non-por- ous plaster. The general opinion seems to be that all the boys implicated should have been at home at the time the fight occurred, and that all of them shipped to Mexico, judging from what | J. C.
