FOR SWEARING FALSELY.

W. II. Coughenor, of Near Accident. Is In
Jail at Oakland.
W. H. Coughenour, of near Acct
dent, is in Jail in Oakland on a very
serious charge, which, if proven, will
send him to the penitentiary for
long term of years.
The charge against him is that of
perjury he having sworn before
Clerk to the Commissioners Ross some
time during the month of May that
certain road upon which he was sup
ervisor had been worked and that the
appropriation of $50 made therefor
by the Board of County Commission
ers had been exhausted. The board
ordered the account paid, which was
done by the County Treasurer.
Coughenour's bondsman, Josephus
Glotfelty, also of near Accident, know
ing that the road had not been re-
paired and learning of the transac-
ton at the Commissioners Office had
warrant issued for his (Coughen-
our's) arrest which was placed in Dep
uty Sheriff Calls hands for service.
The officer arrested the man two or
more weeks ago but he escaped by
jumping from the second story win
dow of the room occupied by the
Deputy and his prisoner at Ries Ho-
tel in Accident. Coughenour ran af-
ter jumping from the window and
went over into Pennsylvania where
he remained until a few days ago
when he returned to his home. Being
suspicious of this movement on the
part of Coughenour, Deputy Calls
went to Accident Saturday night and
surrounding the house occupied by the
prisoner and his family by posse he
demanded his surrender Instead of
complying Coughenour jumped from
a back window of the building and
was making off when he was seen by
one of the men who fired in the air to
frighten him. Coughenour then sur
rendered and was brought to Oakland
Sunday night and is now in Jail where
he will have to remain until the Sep
tember term unless released on bail,
when his trial will take place.
The prisoner came to this county
from Pennsylvania about six years
ago and bought the Henry Felix farm
near Accident. He married young
lady named Margroff of that COM
munity but who died year or two
afterward. He later married his de-
ceased wife's sister.

Ought to Be a Happy Man.

Col. George Alexander Pearre, Con-
gresham from the Sixth Congress
sional District of Maryland, who re-
ceiyed the unusual honor of third
successive nomination from his party
in district where aspiring statesmen
are as thick as peach blossoms in a
Blue mountain orchard, should be a
proud mortal. Not only for the rea-
son indicated in the foregoing para
graph has the doughty colonel cause
to indulge in the amiable smiles of
satisfaction, but for the further rea-
son that he has some faithful adher-
ents of such unbounded confidence in
his wisdom and sagacity, that what
ever way the Congressman votes on
pending measures, that way is held
to be the right and proper Key

Your correspondent has been so

past few weeks the Park has been the
scene of great liveliness. The incom-
ing of our summer population has ex-
ceeded any former season. Only six
cottages remain for rent and nearly
all the cottages are occupied. The
majority of our hotels and boarding
houses were open for guests June 1st
and some of them have been crowded
to their fullest capacity. The Y. NJ.
G. A. Convention which convened at
the Tabernacle, closed it's session last
Sunday night. There were about 45O
delegates in attendance. The Chair

Mr.. Charles E Hoye, who lately
brought two bright Filipino lads to
this country to be educated, decided
not to return to the islands of the
Orient unnacompanied.
In his dreams, afar across the sea,
surrounded by dusky Malay youths
and maidens, stammeringly, though
not stupidity, striving to acquire our
conglomerate mother-tongue, he had
visions of fair, blue-eyed neighbor
lassie who seemed all the brighter
and fairer by the contrast. Having
placed the boys at an excellent indus
trial school near Philadelphia where
they might acquire the methods,
habits and manners of Americans, he
returned home to the realization of

Miss Halle Gladys Savage, our
heroine, is the youngest daughter of
the late Wesley Savage, of Sang Run,
a man noted for his kindness of heart
and uprightness of character. Her
brother, Mr.. Bruce B. Savage, an in
telligent and industrious farmer, and
her sisters are we'll known citizens of
our county, Miss Della Savage being
one of Garrett's most conscientious
and successful teachers. Miss Halle
was -eminently home girl, being
much respected by all who knew her
for her tender devotion to an invalid
mother and her loving care of her
father during his last illness.
What a change from the peace and
quiet of "Wild Wood Glen" to the
hustle and hustle of travel across the
continent, from the rustic of a thou

ghenies to the murmur of a million
waves on the bosom of the peaceful
Pacific; from her childhood's happy
home in Goods own country to her
hearts chosen home among the trop-
ical isles
Mr.. Hoye is the son of William H.
Hoye, also of Sang Run, a farmer
famous for his dry humor and his
hospitality. His mother is the daugh-
ter of the late Joseph J. Stutzman,
widely known as the pioneer of edu-
cation in Somerset county, Pa, and
in adjoining counties. Many of the
founders of the educational system of
our county and of Allegany county
were his pupils, his daughters, Mrs.
William Hoye and Mrs. Chas. Brown,
being among the number. 1t is
plainly to be seen from where Mr..
Chas. E. Hoye inherited his teaching
talent. Our hero served honorably

A printing Office is usually consid-
cred a rather tough place and the
newspaper man a mighty bad man.
Statistics, however, do not bear out
this idea. OF 1000 in the Texas peni-
tentiary there is not a printer or
newspaper man, while there are law
yers, ministers, music teachers, doc
tors, bankers, cooks, photographers,

NEW ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
The Garrett Water and Light Company.
Plant at the Park.

The Garrett Water and Light Company's
Plant at the Park.
Last Thursday the Garrett Water
and Light Company had its plant
completed and ready for operation
and for the first time turned on the
current and brilliantly lighted up the
Park and numerous cottages. The
plant is one of the best of its size as to
machinery and construction in the
State. 1t has the highest ideas in
volved in electric lighting, having a
dynamo efficiency of SO per cent. The
machine has voltage of 22OO trans
formed down to 10 volts. The wir-
ing Is in three series, so arranged that
the line furnishing light to the hotels
and houses, etc., can be placed inser-
vice independent of the street lines.
The lamps furnish very bright, clear
light and everybody has word of
praise for their brilliancy.
The four valve slow speed engine is
magnificent piece of machinery, al
most noiseless in its movements and
moves like the works of watch.
Said one of the leading citizens of
Oakland last evening: 81 have visited
great many electric light plants but
never saw as perfect plant as this"
Said another gentleman speaking of
the engine: 1T is as fine as silk"
The plant is well worth a visit by
any one interested in machinery.
The building is a two story house,
the second being used for a store
room. South of the boiler room 81.
connected with the boiler room is a
large coal house having a capacity of
70 tons of coal. The power house is
located on the side track running
from the B. s. o. road to the ice house,
thus enabling the Light Company to
have its coal put right at the plant.
Among The houses using the service
OF the new company are the follow
ing: The Hicks House, 43 lights;
Hustling Store Co., the drug store,
Hotel Chautauqua, 45 lights; Brae-
thorn, II lights; w. H. H. Sheets,
Mrs. NJ. Haymond, Thomas Deveny,
L. G. Carr, F. T. Martin, Mrs. Talson's
two cottages, L. A. Rudisill G. w.
Hopkins, P. T. Cartwright, etc.
The company has three men wiring
houses and contracts ahead to keep
the employees busy for some time to
come. The Tabernacle in which the
Y. NJ. G. A. Convention was held was
beautifully lighted by 10 80 candle
power lamps and 16 candle power
lamps. The Park is lighted by 1876
30 candle power lamps.
The water supply for the boiler is
secured from the lake. The water
comes to the plant by gravity. There
| is a feeling of relief because the erec-
tion of this plant guarantees an abun-
dance of water for all purposes at the
Park. Should the Mountain Lake
Water Company fail to supply water
this summer as it did last season it is
the intention of the new company to
lay pipe throughout the Park next
fall and furnish water to the citizens
of that community, having sufficient
power not only to produce electricity
but to pump millions of gallons of
water daily.

of four townships, EN- bracing A.
79S. rs acres of surveyed lands in
eastern Stevens county were
thrown open to settlement today.
The new lands border on the Pend
d'Oreille river and are about thirty
miles north of the town of New
port. The tract can be reached by
several routes, the easiest of which
is via the Great Northern from
this city to Newport and thence by
steamer
The region contains considera-
BILE meadow and agricultural land
Such land, however is to be found
only in spots of few hundred
acres. The region is generally
hilly, and in some places rough
and mountainous. 1t is reported
that there is considerable tim Der in
the district, and that it is really
more valuable for its tim Der than
its agricultural resources The
district is also mineralized, but no
important developments have been
made. 1t is especially notable for
its immense deposits of limestone
The famous Portland cement
works is located on the Pend
d'Oreille river, near the new lands
Immediately to the north of the
surveyed district the country is
mountainous and unsurveyed.

Florence Needs Attractions.

Florence needs more places of
attraction For instance yesterday
the excursion train lenving Grip
pie Creek, coming this way divid-
ed at Oro Junction and about fif-
teen times as many people went on
to Canon, while comparatively a
few came to Florence The reason
for this is simply because Canon
affords better accommodations in
the way of pleasure resorts than
Florence. At Canon they have
the soda springs, bath houses and
parks Florence has a soda spring
which daily flows more water than
the Canon springs do in month,
but then it is nol put in shape like
those of the county seat town
The advisability of fitting up
these springs have been urged
time and again and if suitable
terms can be made with Mr..
Gumaer and the improvements
added as they should be, someone
can make lot of money.

vantage of the 75-cent rate. The
party returned to Florence about
midnight.
The Eagles base ball team did
