Mr. s. r. Brooks, of Pittsburgh. the great
American lock picker is exhibiting a new
burglar alarm and lock combined, repre-
sentation of which is given above. It is a
safeguard that will keep thieves and ma
rauders at bay. 1t is simple in construction
and easily applied. 1t is durable and the
most expert thief can not evade it. If you
want to see just how to keep thieves out of
your house call at the Glade House. and
Mr.. Brooks will take pleasure in showing
bis wonderful alarm and lock to you If
you think you have lock that is safe just
ask h,m to pick it for you. ard You will soon
be convinced that there if no such thing as
a lock that cannot be picked. The only alb
solutely safe thing is an alarm.

Mr.. EDrro8 Perhaps few items from
the northern region of Armstrong county
would be of some interest to the many read
ers of your excellent paper
We live as people of other parts of this
earth live, on bread and butter earned by
the sweat of our faces OF course, some
have more than Others, bnt there is one con-
ISOLATION. that in death ell will be brought
on an equality, as far as temporal things are
concerned.
The majority of the people here are of
Pennsylvania dutch extraction. AS the
people of Somerset county know all about
the disposition of these people, it is scarcely
necessary that should extensively describe
them.
The political atmosphere is Republican.
and of the most radical stamp. To persuade
these staunch Republicans of Red Bank
township to vote for Democrat for an Of
flee of any Importance. is as impossible as
il is for q camel to go through the eye of a
needle.
As for myself having been brought up on
Republican soil in Somerset county, nat
urally enjoy the wholesome political atmos-
phere in this part of loyal Pennsylvania.
Prohibition is also creating quite an ex-
citement in these parts, many are signing
remonstrances against applicants for license.
On next Sabbath evening there will be a
Temperance meeting in the Evangelical
Church of this place, and no doubt the sub
ject of prohibition will be thoroughly dis
cussed.
Sleighing is brisk. people are taking ad-
vantage of the snow to do their hauling.
Business is very much depressed. people
are breathing vengeance against the rot
tenness of the Democratic party.
If you will think proper to publish this
you may expect more in the future.

DEAR HERALD -Inasmuch as it is time
for my epstolary visit to the columns of
your excellent journal, am prone to adhere
to my adopted custom. No periodical is so
dear to my heart as the HERALD. for. like
the ''0ld Oaken Bucket" it brings fond
recollecuons to view. How eagerly
watched its career all through the late cam
paign when enemies maligned and fain
would fell the standard of Republicanism,

victorious.

DEATH on THE RAIL.-Another accident
occurred near Rowena station, on the SOM
erset a Cambria Railroad about nine o clock
Tuesday evening of last week. Mr.. Harri-
son II Lohr and Jacob Koontz, two we'll
known farmers of Quemahoning township,
with sled load of women and children,
were returning from church and while
crossing the railroad track at the above
mentioned point north bound engine
struck the sled square in the middle, cut
ting it in two and throwing half of it on
each side of the road. The occupants of the
sled all escaped with but slight injuries ex-
cept Mr. Lohr, who was picked up by the
balance of the party in an unconscious con-
dition. His throat had an ugly cash in it
and the one side of his head was caved in.
He died from the effect of his injuries the
following day. 1t is said that the engineer
did not give the usual signal at the crossing
where the accident occurred, and that in
consequence none of the parties on the
sled heard its approach or were aware of the
imminent danger they were in until the en-
CINE was upon them.
