The secretary read letter of thanks,

Some psychological writer's contend
that there is communicating, reciprocal

good or bad.
The secretary was instructed to tender
our best regards to our two illustrious

in the sucker state which has resulted in
so much mutual benefit to our association.
The single benighted individual who so
obstinately sacrificed business to princi-

DEATH AND ADVENTURES OF
DANIEL McGlNTY, ESQ.
Evolved from the Imagination OF
Jerry Coe and Dedicated to
the Teachers of America.
CHAPTER VI
LORELAND.
P. PURITY.


In these days almost everything Except
interest rates. comes down with "dull
thud." So did McGinty. He also came
down with alacrity and for once he had
no objections to offer. He was quite will
ling to stop, take rest and observe the
surroundings. McGinty did not know
where he was any more than you or I
know. It is our mutual business-our
duty, pleasure and privilege to find out
if possible. On the beach below him, he
observed a number of persons boating
and strolling about but as their dress and
demeanor appeared eminently proper, he
wisely concluded it was not Long Branch
or any other resort of fashion he had ever
visited.
Having discovered what was really a
strange land he had now a mind to travel
inland on a tour of inspection, and just
now we begin to unravel the most impor-
tant part of this strange history
He had not proceeded far before he dis
covered that no living thing seemed to be
afraid of him. Even the birds-innocent
and useful-which erst while had served
as targets for his murderous sport (vilely
called craftsmanship showed not the
least sign of fear at his approach. This
was riddle to be solved only by acquain-
lance with the country and the experience
recorded in future chapters.
Proceeding further he met young man
with note book and pencil in hand whom
he correctly judged to be student. OF
him he inquired the name of the country.
''This" said the student sis Loreland."
"Loreland? Loreland?" repeated McGin-
ty "sure Oh don't know where that is"
The student informed him that it was
the principal and most powerful state in
the continent of Kommonsense. Both
were very much surprised. Their aston
ishment was mutual. McGinty was aston
ished by the novelty of his discovery and
the student was surprised at the igno-
rance Of MeGinty. He thanked the stu
dent and went on full of wonder. He was
now approaching a larger town, or city
rather, and quickened his step as he
thought of the possibility of repeating his
experience on landing in America. Alasi
his reception was quite different. He was
unaware of the fact that the student, Gu
rious concerning the antecedeuts of
the stranger, altered his course and pre-
coded him into the city where he inform
ed the custom officers OF his approach.
They met him on the outskirts of the
city ard Immediately placed him under
arrest and held for trial whereat he must
must answer such questions concerning
his history, condition in Life and his Lore
land as might be put him. The substance
OF these inquiries and answers will be
given in the next chapter.

at the trial. McGinty was told that
every foreigner on entering Loreland was
required to produce letters of recon-
mendation from some accredited repre-
sentative OF that government which, on
no account, would be issued to any per-
son once convicted of high crimes, or
political intrigue. Neither could these
letters be granted to any person unable
to support himself and family for e
period Of one year, at least, and also pos

Mention was made some time ago Of fire
in the barn Of Cyrus Over, near Bedford,
which completely destroyed the contents.
A fine horse was missing. and it was thought
the barn bad been fired by horsethief A
stranger appeared in Williamsburg a few
days after the fire and offered at & very
ridiculous figure TO sell good horse he had
with him. The horse was finally sold to
Joseph Kipe for S25, $40 Of which was to be
paid in cash and the balance was to be paid
in a week The man gave bis name as West
Noble and took his departure, saying he
would return the last ofthe week for the
balance of the purchase money.
When Mr. Over arrived at Williamburg
be identified the horse as his property, and
gave an accurate description Of the man sus-
pected Of committing the theft, which tailed
with the description Of West Noble The
man arrived for the purchase money and
was treated to a surprise by being arrested.
He was brought TO this city and lodged in
Jail. Il appears that the horse was taken
from Mr. overs barn and the shoes left in
it, in order 20 create the impression that the
horse was burned with the barn.

A New Enterprise for Somerset
County,


Somerset Stone Company IS the name
Of a new corporation recently chartered by
the STATE. The object Of the company is to
quarry, buy and sell stone and TO manufac-
ture sand from stone and sell the sand. The
officers are John Murdock, President; J. NJ.
Murdocl, Secretary and Treasurer; Josiah
WOy, F. Holbrook, H II. Woodward and
W. F MurdOck, Directors. The capital
stock i $4,000.
The company own tract of 80 acres of
land short distance north of Milford sta
ton. on the line Of the Somerset 4 Cambria
Railroad. and between two and three miles
east Of this point thay have purchased
what are known as the Bare Rocks"
a tract Of about eight hundred acres. On
the latter tract there is about one hun
drei acres Of solid rock, particularly adapt
ed TO heavy bridge work engine foundations,
Gaping, and for building purposes general
ly. They are ofa splendid c0lor, and pure
sand. They lie in larg square blocks, the
average depth being twenty feet On this
tract there is also a large lot of valuable
pine and oak timber.
A railroad is being constructed from a
point on the Company's land near Milford
Station, where it will connect with the.S. &
c. road to the rocks. The road is . miles
in length, almost one-half of which has al
ready been graded. and the large force Of
workmen now engaged viii probably COM
plete the grading within the next two weeks
The road will be of standard gauge
The company will have their own engine
and other rolling-stock. The grade of the
road is about $50 feet TO the mile, but as all
loaded cars are hauled down the steep grade
viii be no obstacle The cost of the grading
has been remarkably low; it will not ex-
ceed one dollar per rod. A seven foot coal
vein has been opened on the Milford Station
tract where coal for the engine and house
house purposes will be supplied. This tract
is also underlaid with a vein OF valuable
fire-clay which viii be opened and worked
in the near future. The company proposes
laying off q portion Of this tract in building
lots and here they will erect an engine house
dwellings for their employees and other
buildings. In addition to quarrrying and
dressing stone they will put up sand
erusher and in this way will utilize the
spalls and such stone as are unfit for build
ing purposes. They expect to ship from ten
TO twenty car loads Of fstone, the supply of
which is practically ine1haustible, per day.
