It'll estimated that an outlay ofless than $50
would enable the Commissioners to fill up the
leaky waste-weir at Great Falls so that the pos
sibility OF any of the filthy canal water getting
into the conduit could be prevented. 1t is sur
prising, therefore, that the Commissioners do
not adopt this cheap and easy mode of settling
Tue whole controversy instead of spending their
time in villifying the cOmplainants through
their organs, and in undertaking to bolster up
their doctrine of official infallibility.

Greek Railroad are also opposed to the sale
of that line to the Pennsylvania Central. as
proposed.
A telegram from Chambersburg says that
about half the men tunneling the mountain
for the South Pennsylvania Railroad have
been discharged and the remainder will
work halfume hereafter. Although pone
of the men have heard definitely CT dis
continuance of work. they are apprehensive
Of receiving such intination almost daily.
Many of the farmers, especially in Fulton
county, are indignant at the proposed sale
of theroad. Fulton county was without a
railroad. and people were so anxious for one
that they gave the South Pennsylvania free
right of way. Considerable work was done.
high fills were made and deep cuts excayat-
ed, to the great injury 70 the farms. and
many of the farmers must drive long dis
tances in their fields unless the cuts are
bridged.
In this county all of the Contractors have
received notice that their monthly allowance
had been reduced one half and in conse-
quenee all of them but the Messrs. Collins
have discharged one half their men. The
Collins are pushing their work with the ut
most yigor and unless orders for an entire
suspension comes soon they viii have their
work finished by the time they do come. 1t

DISASTER AT THE TusSEL.-A terrible acci-
dent occurred at the east end of Kittatinny
tunnel. on the South Pennsylvania Railroad
in Gunter's Valley, n o'clock on Tuesday
morning The night shift had just put off q
blast and had retired for the day shit to en-
ter. Two men, one of whom was Jean
Munston, entered to ascertain the result of
the blast, carrying lamp with them. In
the tunnel were several barrels of gasoline
from which gas had escaped, and caused an
explosion from the lamp. The flames biaz-
ed up, setting fire TO the timbes used in
dropping up the roof of the tunnel, and
burning Munston considerably. The flames
spread rapidly, and the alarm was instantly
given. The men worked hard to quench
the flames, but were unsuccessful. That
evening the Cumberland Valley suction en-
gine OF Shippensburg was taken out, and did
effective work The lumber burning away
left no support and the earth fell in, filling
the tennel up for distance of about four
hundred feet, and causing a loss of several
thousand dollars to the contractor. Mr..
Heating, as the dirt will all have TO be re-
moved before work can be proceeded with.
II is remarkable that the two men who were
in the tunnel at the time escaped with their
lives. CAamJeTsbsrg Repository.

Ida Witt, aged IS years and months
She lived her entire life time in Somerset,
and was well and favorably known to the
entire community. Ida had many traits Of
character that endeared her to her friends
and aequaintances. Her pleasant and kind
face and ladylike conduct. made her alike
esteemed by ALL She had not enjoyed good
health for more than two years previous to
her death, and in consequence Of this did
not for some time mingle so much with her
former associates. She had always been an
affectionate and dutiful daughter, but esDe-
ciaIiy lid these qualities and characteristics
become conspicuous during the time of her
i'll health. She became, as it were. a child
again, and the ministrations and eompan-
ionship of her parents. sisters and brothers
afforded her the greatest source of happiness
and contentment. She bore her suiferings
with great fortitude and was seldom heard
to complain, lest it might be the occasion of
grief to other members OF the family. Her
life was one of innocence and goodness. and
when the trying hour of death came it was
one Of Christian submission. On suitable
occasions she made known TO her friends
that her abiding faith in Christ gave her as
surance of life with Him beyond the grave
at perfect rest. The funeral services were
held in Trinity Lutheran Church, of which
she was an exemplary member. The occa-
sion WAS improved by discourse, preached
by her pastor, Rev. J. F. Shearer.

One day last week Mr.. Jacob Shaw of this
place was relieved of the sum Of s25. The
money was hid in place where no one not
familiar with the house could have found it.
just what day it disappeared is not known
The money consisted of one ten dollar bill,
one five dollar bill and ten silver dollars.
Mr.. S. can form no idea who took the mon
ey, as nothing else in the house was disturb

On last Sunday morning team hitched
to a wagon was found standing on the street
close by the N. E. Church. After watching
and waiting awhile six young men were
seen coming out of little house close by,
where certain woman lives, who jumped
into the wagon and drove off. Whether
they were hiding from the man they horse

The report as published in the HERALD
and Democrat, that Jasper Flanagan died from
sunstroke on the 2ist uit is not correct.
The reporter for the Democrat could not have
gotten further from the truth had he tried
whole month. Mr.. +. was subject to very
violent attacks of cramp. and the attack
from which he died was not much, if any
different from former attacks. At least it
could not hay been sunstroke, rs it took
from four to six strong men TO hold him.
and those who know the effects of sunstroke
could not credit such diagnosis.
On last Saturday night six young men
from the town of Ursina, came to this place
and tried to paint things red. After some
very bad conduct, they went down street,
and, in the morning between one and two
o'clock and called out of bed James McNere,
man over 20 years Of age, and when he
came to the door to inquire what they want
ed they commenced horsewhipping him,
first with the butt and afterwards with the
lash of the whip, hurting the frail old man
quite severely. Three of the party were
arrested, but compromised by paying $50
damage and all costs Boys best keep lit

Eichnor's Normal. at Meyersdale, adver-
tised FOR some time in these columns, IS one
of the most successful Normal Schools ever
taught in the county. There are at present
seventy scholars in the normal department
and fifty in the primary, making total OF
one hundred and twenty. This is certainly
a goodly number to start with, and is very
flattering to the principal of the school,
Prof. d. C. Eichnor.
