Every pig you run over on a country

Just to keep the neighbors from

who recently bought a rabbit hound.
Jim Dillinger told a fellow that he

Saturday but most of ’em either

A certain young fellow made a
bum crack in front of Harry Darren-

said: “I’d like to see the woman who

Sunday they were to Harrisburg.

A fellow from here was amusing

HOW PA. COUNTIES
GOT THEIR NANES
(From page One.)
names of Pennsylvania is as follows:
Adams county is the namesake of
John Adams, second president of
the United States. The county was
organized in the year 1800, and it is
that about the time its
name was to be selected, Adams,
with a train of attendants and a mil-
itary escort, traversed the county on
his way to the then new seat of
government at Washington. It was
this incident largely that determined
' the name of the county.
Allegheny is of Indian origin. Ac-
cording to the Indian tradition,
tribe known as the Alligewi, a peo:
ple of gigantic form, inhabited the
territory between the Allegheny
Mountains and the Mississippi River.
They were vanquished by the Iro-
quois and the Lenni Lenape, aban-
doning the country to their fathers
and fleeing to the southward, never
to return.
Armstrong
county is one of a
large number that were organized
in 1800. It bears the name of Colo-
nel John Armstrong, who command-
ed the forces that defeated the In-
dians at Fort Kittanning in 1756.
He also served in the Revolution
under Washington.
Beaver was named in honor of 2
celebrated Indian chief, Tamaque
the equivalent of Beaver in English.
Bedford was so named for the
English Duke of Bedford.
Berks county derives its name
from the fact that Admiral Penn
the father of the founder of Penn-
sylvania, owned lands along the
Thames in Berkshire, England, and
for this reason the descendants of
William Penn, in 1752, named the
new county Berks.
Blair county perpetuates the name
of Hon. John Blair, Jr., an early res-
ident who was prominent in the af-
fairs of Pennsylvania.
Bradford county was originally
called Ontario. At the suggestion
of John Bannister Gibson, who when
a young man, served as a judge of
the district, the county was given its
present name, in honor of William
Bradford, who served as attorney
General during the second adminis-
tration of President Washington.
Bucks, one of the three original
counties, was in some of the early
papers designated as Buckingham,
the name of one of the important
shires of England.
Butler was named for General
Richard Butler, of Carlisle, Pa. He
won distinetion as a soldier under
Gates at Saratoga, Washington at
Monmouth, Wayne at Stony Point,
and Lafayette at Yorktown. He lost
his life while leading a division of
General St. Clair’s forces against the
Indians in Ohio in 1791,
Cambria county numbered among
its early settlers a colony of Welsh.
and when the county was formed,
they were instrumental in having it
called Cambria, the ancient name
of Wales, which meant a land of
mountains.
Cameron county came into being
in 1860, when Simon Cameron was
a dominent figure in Pennsylvania
politics. He was for a short time Sec-
retary of War in Lincoln’s cabinet,
served as ambassador to Russia and
was a United States Senator. The
county was named for him,
Carbon is one of the group of
counties in which anthracite coal is
found, and this mineral, largely com-
posed of carbon, supplied the name
of the county.
Centre county derives its name
from the fact that it occupies the
geographical center of the State.
Chester, the town, was first called
Upland. When William Penn ar-
rived, he resolved that the name of
the place should be changed. One of
those who made the voyage across
the Atlantic with Penn in the ship
Welcome was a friend named Pear-
son. Addressing himself to Pearson,
Penn is reported to have said: “Prov-
idence hath brought us safe here
Thou hath been the companion of
my perils. What wilt thou that I
should call this place?’ “Chester,”
said Pearson, in remembrance of the
place from which he had come in
Englend. Penn replied that it should
be called Chester, and that when
the land should be divided tnio coun-
ties, one of them should be called by
the same name.
Clarion county was organized in
1839. According to Day's Historical
Collections of Pennsylvania, the
name was avoplied to the locality
from the “Clarionlike echoes coming
from the defeated Indians of the
‘Cornplanter’ tribe at the Battle of
Brady’s Bend.”
Clearfield is by some held to have
received its name from a compara-
tively clear field in which the buffa-
loes roamed. Others attribute the
clearing of the field to the Indians.
Clinton derives its name from De-
Witt Clinton, the builder of the Eric
Canal and a governor of New York
Columbia is a name for whose ori-
gin we must go back to Christopher
Columbus.

William Crawford, a soldier of the
Revolution. His home was in Berk
ley county, Virginia. At the request
of Washington, he led a force of men
against the Indians of northern Ohio

election to the governorship, McKean
was for twenty-two years chief jus-
tice of the supreme court of Penn-
sylvania. He was a Scotch-Irishman
and knew how to behave like one
when the occasion demanded. One
of the stories preserved concerning
him is that while he was presiding
in court at Harrisburg, a mob out-
side disturbed him, and he ¢:dered
the sheriff to disperse them. The
sheriff replied that he was not able
to do so. “Then why do you not
summon your posse?” ordered the
judge. “I have summoned them
but they are ineffectual,” said the
sheriff. “Then why do you not sum-
mon me?” asked McKean. “I dc
summon you.” said the trembling
officer. Not waiting to discard the
robes of his office, the chief justice
rushed out, seized a couple of rioters |
by the troat, and the rest beat a re-
treat.
