Ligosiee, February 28. The entire
county is in a fever of excitement and rage
over the news of one of the most cold-blooded
murders ever committed in this county. The
scene of the crime is a prosperous farm on
the pike about ten miles east of here, near
Jennerstown, Somerset county. About 7
o'clock last night, while Her&an TJmberger
and his wife were seated cozily before their
dining room fire they were aroused by a
knock at the door.
Mr. TJmberger hastened to respond, and,
upon opening the door, was confronted by
two masked men, who Informed ilm that they
were officers. They said they had a warrant to
make an investigation of his premises for jewel
ry that had been stolen from a peddler in that
neighborhood some time ago. The; also showed
papers upon which were names of a number of
farmers in the vicinity, which, they claimed,
they had searched.
"After considerable deliberation JMx. TJm
berger finally consented to permit the search.
After several articles had been searched, he
opened a drawer in which lay a pocket book
containing $13,000. He informed his visitors
cthat the book contained nothing bat valuable
papers, and placed it in his pocket. They re
plied they were not after his money, but
were simnly doing their dnty as officers of the
law. The old lady who was with them up to
this time went back to the kitchen. She had
scarce v reached there when she was startled
by heafingthemurderonsexclamation. "Money
or your life ! " She hurried toward the room,
but before she reached there a terrible death
stnijrjrle was on.
Several shots were fired and she rushed to
the farm bell, and commenced to ring it vio
lently. SbeTetarned to the house and the
scume was still coins on. A moment later she
heard five shots fired and then all was still.
She went into the house and found the old man
lying dead upon the floor. Two of the shots
took effect in his body, one passing through his
heart, the other making a flesh wound in his
side. Death had resulted instantaneously. The
villains alter securing the pocketbook contain
ing the 13.000, fled into the darkness and made
their escape.
They were tracked in the direction of the
mountains, when the trail was lost. The mur
derers are described as one toeing tall, wearing
a derby hat, the other being short and heavy
set, wearing a slouch hat. The murdered man
wss about 70 years of age, and lived all alone
with his aged wife. He had been an invalid
for several years, and the only reason that can
be assigned for the killing is that he recognized
them.
His wife was the only eye-witness to the cold
blooded deed, bntshe was too feeble to aid her
husband. Parties are out sconringthe country,
and will shoot down the murderers if caught.
The whole country is greatly excited over the
terrible affair. A reward of 1,500 has been
offered for the arrest of the fiends.
POLITICAL, ANNEXATION.
That is the Charco Asa Inst the "Shrewd
Yonnjrstomi Democracy.
Ytro-GSTOWN, February 2S. A lovely fight
has developed herb between the Republicans
and Democrats, growing out of the proposed
extension of the city limits, which may make
the municipal election in April an interesting
contest. At the instance of many citizens a
committee was appointed by the Council to
have a map prepared showing the territory
which it was desired to annex. This includes
the populous suburbs of Brier Hill and Hazel
ton. This would give the city a population of
JO.QpO.
Itisnowasserted by Republicans that the
annexation project is a Democratic scheme to
change the political complexion of the city and
make it Democratic. This is denied by the
Democrats, who, npon the returns at the elec
tion last fall, show that the Republicans had a
majority, and by the annexing of the proposed
Territory would stUI have a majority of nearly
400. Unless there is an entire withdrawal of
pvty spirit it is probable the extension scheme
will be defeated.
BARK.EY IS STILL. ALIVE.

AN IMBECILE'S HORRIBLE DEATH.
He Attacked His Keeper, and Was Crashed
Out of Existence.
Pontiac, Mich., February 28. Last
Sunday 'William Davis, a patient at the
insane asylum, was killed by PL P. Taylor,
an attendant, and to-day the cxroner's jury
rendered a verdict that the killing was done
in self-defense. The circumstances" are
these:
As Taylor passed Davis in the hall, with
another imbecile, Davis, who was out of
humor about something, struck Taylor in
the neck. Taylor left the other man and
grabbed Davis about the waist. Theystrug.
gled for five minutes, first one, then the
other, getting the best. "When about three
feet from a bench, Taylor, as he says, gave
Davis a violent wrench, throwing toim
across the arm of the bench. His body was
twisted over it and held there until help ar
rived. An examination of the body revealed the
fact that Davis must have been handled in
a terrible manner. The breast bone was
broken in two and every rib on one side was
broken except two, and three were broken
twice. The ragged edges of thej ribs sawed
off the veins and arteries so that the internal
cavities were filled with blSod. After the
fight the patient was taken out for a walk
and dragged around the grounds nntil he
said he could go no further. He was then
taken back, put to bed and died in a few
minutes.

Sick Headache
May arise from stomach troubles, biliousness,
or dyspepsia, and many persons are subject to
periodic headaches for which they can ascribe
no direct or definite cause. But the headache
is a sure indication that there is something
wrong somewhere, and whatever the cause,
Hood's Sarsaparilla. is a reliable remedy for
headache, and for all troubles which seem to
require a corrective and regulator. It cures
dyspepsia, biliousness, malaria, tones the stom
ach, creates an appetite and gives strength to
the nerves.
"I have been troubled for a number ofyears
with a sick headache accompanied by vomiting
spells. My system was all out ot order, and In
addition to this I contracted a severe cold,
which caused u terrible cough. I took Hood's
Sarsaparilla, and it has accomplished so much,
that I am certain of a speedy .restoration of
perfect health. The headache has left me en
tirely, and my system has come to a regular
working order." Mrs. A. J. ElMMERMASjr,
