LOCAL WAR NOTES.
The seventh death in the Ninth
Ponn'a regiment occurred on Monday.
The victim was John J. Hosley,of Pitts
ton, a private of Company C, aged 24
years. Malarial typhoid was the cause
of the death and thu disease is still rag
ing in the regiment. More deaths and
more sickness have occurred in the
Ninth than in any other command at
Chickaniauga. The regiment lias been
ordered to move to a healthier part of
the camp, also to erect another hospital
tent, 18x50 feet. The Ninth has over
150 men laid up with malaria and
typhoid fever and this is acting against
its chances of seeing activo service.
William Pointon, anothor niombor of
Company C, died on Tuesday in the
Ninth's camp at Chickainauga. He is its
eighth victim of typhoid. The young
man was 20 years of age and resided at
Dupont, near Pittston. He was buried

A Young Man Missing.
A week ago on Monday Joseph Reese,
- aged 25 years, a son of Shadrach Reese,
of Silver Brook, wandered away from
his home and since that time has not
returned. About 10 o'clock in the morn
ing he told his mother that he was
going out for a walk and with a pleasant
good-bye he started off. In the evening
of that same day Samuel Fudge, the
watchman at the Ilauto dam, near
Nesquehoning, saw tho young man and
spoke to him. Mr. Reese asked him the
road to Silver Brook, a distance of seven
miles, and receiving his instructions dis
appeared down the road. Since that
time nothing lias been seen or heard of
him. His father and over
friends have searched everywhere, in
quiries liavo been made through the
police, but no information can ho ob
tained.
At homo his grief stricken mother
waits for news, and sleepless nights and
anxious days attest bur sorrow. Any
information will be gratefully received
and considered a favor. The young
man did not drink hut was subject to
epileptic fits. He is a five feet seven
inches tall, slim built and pallid smooth
shaven face. He wore a red, white and
blue badge on ills coat and two eagles.
When last seen he wore a brown-mixed
coat and vest, black pants, calico shirt
and a broad-brimmed hat of light color.
Pretty StMte of Affair*.
As a result of the so-called reforms in
augurated by the Republican office
holders who were swept into office a few
years ago, Schuylkill county is practi
cally bankrupt today. Monday was pay
day for the county officials and tho
many clerks, tint they did not receive
their salaries because County Treasurer
Davis and Controller Snyder have noti
fied tho commissioners that the county
treasury is empty. The commissioners
refuse to negotiate any more temporary
loans, this amount having reached over
$250,000 and owing to the hard times in
tho coal region it will not be possible to
collect sufficient taxes to pay current
expenses. Tho commissioners advertis
ed a new bond issue of $220,000, but tho
Taxpayers' Association, which is coin
posed of coal land and mining companies,
iilod a bill in equity. Judge Koch de
cided in favor of tho new loan.
The association then appealed the
case to tho supreme court, and uo deci
sion can he secured before October.
Until that time little or no money will
come into the county treasury, and
there will bo no funds to pay salaries or
tho expenses of tho September term of
court.

names of Crisp, GorTsellakoff. Kaluo
lty, Audrassy and Giers were known to
all the world. Ills heavy hand was
felt in every Cabinet and Court. Ills
life became the history of modem
Europe.
Prom the lieglnnlng of the present
year Hlsmarck was constantly under
the surveillance of his physicians, and,
whatever it may have been called,
Ills life was that of an invalid. Pew
persons were allowed to sis: him, and
every precaution was taken to prevent
any disturbance of his rest and quiet.
This was In a measure the result of
the experience of a Hamburg reporter
who went to Prledt tclismh to inquire
after Hlsmarek's health and was re
ceived by Count Uaut/.uu in such a
way that the reporter won a suit for
damages from the Count. lie contrib
uted only two articles to his organ, the
Hamburger Nuchrlchton, during the
past year. These were dictated to the
editor, who came to his house. lie
sent many memorandums to the edi
tor, however, and these he usually dic
tated to his private secretary. Dr.
Clirysander used to read the papers to
lilui, and learned Uusslan for the pur
pose of translating to him articles
from the two principal newspapers of
tft. Petersburg. In nddition to these—
which he sometimes through his small
knowledge of ltusstan was able to
read in the original—Bismarck regu
larly read three London newspapers.
He usually rose late, ate a hearty
breakfast without the accompaniment
of tea or coffee, but frequently includ
ing as much as a pound of meat. He
always took this alone, reading some
of his mail at the time. He was able
to ride only a few ttmes last spring,
and then for only a brief period. Last
January be undertook what was for
liim an unusual exertion. He stood as
godfather to twins horn of one of the
workmen in his sawmill. This was
done in order to show the other work
men, who are largely socialists, how
much he appreciates the service of his
more faithful employees. The dinner
hour was with him the principal event
of the day, although the number of
guests was limited. One glass of .Mo
selle wine at dinner and two of beer
after dinner constituted his allowance
in recent months. He obeyed the re
striction generally, but on one occa
sion so fur broke his regimen as to
drink live bottles of Moselle and as
much beer'as he wanted.
His political Interests during the
last years of his life were almost wliol
ly conllued to his own country, and
the war between Spain and the Uul
ted States, as well as other questions
of foreign politics, are said to have
had but little Interest for him.
