Nearing the Grave.

In old age infirmities and weakness

and pharmacal skill have allied them
selves in furnishing us reliable means
Of ameliorating the ailments incident to

remedy in disease. and an inestiinable
blessing to the elderly, the feeble and the

BILE with the kidneys and lumbago are
among the more common ailments of the
aged. These are eifectually counteraeted
by the Bitters, which is likewise pre-
vention and curative of malarial COM

C0MM0NWEALERS
CAMPED HERE.
Refused Work When 1t Wa. offered Them


A party Of the Chicago contingent OF
Coxey's Commonweal army. nnherald-
ed, unshaven and unwashed, arrived at
the outskirts of town last Tuesday even
ing and pitched their tents in the woods
on top Of Farmer George Tayman's hill.
The party numbered about 40 aud was
under command of Captain Elliot, slen-
der, wild-oyed, bushy-bearded man OF
about forty years Of age.
The site selected for the camp is one Of
the highest points in the county and the
stencil generated by the filthy wealefs
was happily carried over the tops Of the
houses in Somerset Shortly after the
tents had been put up for the night a de
tachment of ''eommoncrs'' visited town
and made hOuse-tO-house canvass solic-
iting provisions They had two wagons,
each drawn by a pair of horses, with
them, but it is safe to say that all the
food they collected could have been car
ried in a basket
Somerset people are not uneharitable,
and there are few if any houses here from
which a tramp is turned away hungry,
but whenit comes to feeding .I4l tramps,
there's difference, that's all.
Early the following morning the streets
were lined with ''wealers,'' all of whom
were bnsily engaged shooting gutter
snipes." After the sidewalks and cutters
had been relieved of their accumulation
Of toby and ''two-for'' stumps the soldiers
returned to camp and spent the Fourth en-
joying secondhand smoke.
Among other visitors to Captain Ram
dall's camp Wednesday was Mr.. Robert
Malone, superintendent of construction
ON the water works. Mr.. Malone offered
the Captain, and as many of his men a.
were willing to work, a job at digging
trenches for the water pipes. Captain
Randall was knocked entirely of his
base by this generous offer of work, but
he was not looking for work He WAS on
his way to Washington to secure the pas
sage of laws for the benefit of working
men. He said to Mr.. Malone that he
would sub-cOntract 10 do all the work on
the water works, providing the contract
or would agree 10 his terms and would
provide quarters and provisions for his
men III advance. After talking the mat
ter over in casual way Mr.. Malone bs-
came satisfied that work Nh. ula lest
thing in the world Captain RANDALL asd
his men We're looking for and resurnrsl %
town.
Wednesday evening the commonwesl-
ers paraded through town 10 the music Of
horn and drum and singing a desultory
song, Of which the following verse Ia
sample:
1--WE have no law to keep men from
Thinking just as they please,
And every mans opinions come
From what he reads and sees;
50 when the papers Tell them that
It's everywhere the same
They say that surely something's wrong,
That Congress is TO blame.''
At an early hour Thursday morning
the army took to the road, marching in
the direction of Bedford. They camped
Thursday night at New Baltimore.

Hugh Luther's Arrest.

In regard 20 the arrest of Hugh Luther,
near Scalp Level, on a charge preferred
by young woman Of Westmoreland
county. the Greensburg Tribune Of Fri
day evening says;
Three years ago young lady lg the
name Of Flora Hicks, living near LigO-
nier, swore out a warrant against young
Luther, charging him with causing her
downfall. The grand jury, after sift-
ing the evidence. returned a true bill and
the defendant was held for trial.
Mr.. Luther. however, did not care to
face jury Of his peers and managed to
make his escape. A bench warrant WAS
issued for his arrest and a search for the
young man began at onrsa.
When Luther He'd be went 10 Paint
township, Somerset county, and settled
down. From that time 70 this he has
hustled around enough to evade every
officer sent out after him. But he was
caught at last and thereby hangs a tale OF
official shrewdness.
Thursday, Constable Hedges, of New
Florence, went to Johnstown with that
oiu (WHICH NHEdtiN l,-utl tot Asutitt ,
arrest three years ago.
After looking up things around Johns
town the officer got rig and drove out TO
Scalp Level. Al Scalp Level lives DIR. J.
A.,Luther, brotherofthe sharp and willy
Hugh. The doctor owns farm near
Scalp Level and ON il has nice lot Of
horses.
Meeting the doctor, the officer COM
menced a conversation with him about
his stock, assuming the role of n would
be purchaser. Things finally got so in
teresting that the officer and doctor drove
out TO fhe latter's farm so as TO take a good
look at the equines before making bar
gain
In looking over the stock the officer did
not find any that he liked and the doctor
remarked that there was one-a gray
horse-which was good one. but he
would not like to sell it, Further discus
sion developed the fact that the doctor
disliked parting with the horse because it
belonged 10 his brother-IIugh-the very
man the officer was after.
at once. and the doctor innoeently made
answer that he was out in the field plow-
ing. OF course the minion of the law
suggested that they drive out and see the
much wanted brother about the horse and
the follower of .Esculapius said yea.
And 50 out to the field they went.
Once out among the furrOws Of the
plow il took the constable but little time
10 take his man. The latter, however,
made an atteslpt to escape after the house
was reached. But il WAS no use The
officer had gun and would fire and so
Hugh surrendered
And the doctor had to walk back to
Scalp Level alone. Lnther was lodged in
Jail here last night. but was released ON
bail this morning.
