On last Friday a Miss Seyfried appeared before a Justice of the Peace in Saltsburg and made an information against Rev.

Oliver Katz, the United Presbyterian minister of that place, who is about 65 years old, charging him with rape. He was arrested and on Tuesday was brought to this place, bail before Judge White for his appearance at a prelinrinay hearing on the 18th day of August. The circumstances attending this case are as follows Rev. Kalz's wife died a few months ago and last week he employed a young lady named Seyfried, who is a native of Blaiis- ville, and a daughter of the late Charles' Seyfried who was killed by his brother, about 32 years ago, to keep house for him, and when she was discharged on Friday according 10 Rev. Katz for gross incom- petency, she immediately brought this action.

Rev. that he ever in any way exercised any familiartyjwith the young lady, and alleges that it is a case of blackmail. It is said that the citizens of Saltsburg are largely divided in opinion as to the guilt of the reverend, gentleman. A Birthday Donation. Tuesday, July 31, was Horace G.

Fry's twenty-seventh birthday. It was a very nice harvest da3y but a number of his Cherryhill neighbors left the oats on the swath and resolved on a change. About 9 in the morning hack loads of people, and buggies in numbers, were coming up and down the road leading to his place. They said, "we have struck and we have come to see what you are going to do about it?" Soon there were about 100 people on the ground. Tables were improvised and the ladies produced well filled baskets.

The contents soon rested on the tables and the word was given to charge on the same. The remains being cleared away it was proposed that some explanation should be made. After singing an appropriate hymn and a season of prayer, several persons of the party spoke on the occasion. It was discovered that because of the long protracted illness of Mr. Fry and his subsequent inability to labor for the last eight or nine months, the neighbors had concluded the oil in the cruse and the contents of the cneal tub must be running low, and had come well stocked with necessaries of life.

Baby, Dulcie, and Blair, the little ones, got each several suits and dresses and the old folks were not forgotten. Three and one-half barrels of flour were laid-down in the pantry, and report said that six or seyen sacks were on the road but did not arrive for want of transportation. Numerous packages of coffee, sugar and canned goods, with various other articles were found among the gifts; even ready cash appeared in the collection. The happy recipients could only look their thankfulness, even the octogenarian Grand pap Hill, was so full that his expressions of gratitude of his posterity was more eloquently expressed from the eyes than the tongue. As the sun went down the people took their leave, conscious that it was a day well spent.

The memory of the day will be with them for a long time as a green spot in their experience. G. A. CUNNINGHAM, daily messenger to Pittsburg. The "Henry Clay" and "Indiana" A correspondent of the Pittsburg Post furnishes that paper the following: The K.

Heisley" was the first Pennsylvania Railroad engine landed in Pittsburg. It came originally from the Middle Division of the Mt.Joy Road, and was a mate to- the "Henry -Clay," and only differed" from her in having two pairs of drivers, whereas the "Clay" had only one pair. The "Heisley" was shipped over the Portage State Road from Hollidaysburg to Johnstown, and by canal from the latter point to the basin in Pittsburg where the site of the Rush House now is. The second engine arriving was the "Indiana," which fell into the basin while it was being unloaded. It was being worked toward the edge of the boat, when the boat turned and dumped the engine into the water and mud.

When they arrived these engines proved to he a great attraction, and half the town was out to see them landed. The "Indiana" was a curiously constructed engine. She had one pair of drivers, six feet in diameter, with cylinders located on a frame midway between the front and rear ends of the boiler. The steam pipes reached the cylinder from the dome on the outside of the boiler, instead of being on the inside of the smoke stack, as in the modern engine. At the time these engines were taken to Pittsburg the "Henry Clay" was landed in.

Blairsville, and, as it was numbered I presume it was put into service on the Pittsburg Division before the "Heisley" or the "Indiana," which were numbered "2" and "3," respectively. Blairsville might have been called the home of the "Henry Clay'." For a long time she ran between Blairsville and the Intersection, hauling passengers and freight. When the branch was extended to Indiana, a sixteen-ton engine was put on in her place. She was still kept on the branch, however, and did work-train service. During the year of 1857 I had the honor of running her.

In 1858 she went to the scrap pile. More is the pity, as be -relic now. Thus "ends record of a faithful old servant of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Though inanimate, she used to talk to me in no uncertain tonesi would he driving her up the grade from the Conemaugh River to the Intersection, with four loaded cars. While she did a good deal of kicking about it, she always managed to get them 1 up the hill, even if I had to weigh down the safety valve to the exploding point.

But I have already written too much. When you touch me on the early days of railroading west of the Atleghenies, you stir up a nest of reminiscences which I love to think and dream about. 1894 AUGUST. 1894 Su. 12 19 26 Mo.

This makes game apiece, and now for the rubber. While in Kittanning the Indiana people were royally entertained and all speak in the highest terms of their treatment by the ball club and citizens. INDIANA PCTNX'SY 8. The good old Magentas went over to Punxsutawney Tuesday and put up a ball game with the club in that place that simply astonished the natives of that village. The whole population was out to see their team wipe the Magentas off the earth, but after thirteen hard fought innings they laid down their bats and said it couldn't be done.

The ball playing of both clubs was the best ever seen in Punxsutawney. When the winning run was made by the Magentas first baseman in thirteenth inning the excitement was intense. The umpire tried his best steal the game, but the superb playing of boys licked him. KILLED BY THE CABS. A Young Man Horribly Mangled at The Lutheran Picnic train which left this place last Thursday morning, carried between 600 and 700 people, whose minds were filled with thoughts of a day of pleasure and entertainment, little dreaming that it was to be marred by one of the.

saddest accidents we have chronicled for many years. Among the excursionists was Albert Crissman, eldest son of George W. Crissman, the well-known fanner and stock dealer of White aged about twenty- four years, who joined the party at Indiana and was one of the merriest of the merry all day. In the afternoon after spending the greater part of the day on the grounds young Crissman and some of his companions went up to Ligonier and spent the remainder of the day walking about the town and in the parlors of the Hotel singing and playing the organ, upon which he was a good performer. When the train started from the station in the evening Crissman was some distance from the train and had to run to make it.

In attempting to board it he was thrown under the the car and across the rail, the -wheels passing over his legs, cutting and fearfully crushing his left; arm and his right hand. He once picked up and carried into the Hotel, when he was given all the assistance and relief possible, but the shock arid his injuries were too great and he only lived about fifteen minutes. A telegram was immediately sentjo his father and he started in the evening for Ligonier, and on Friday evening brought his remains here. The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock and was one of the largest funerals held in this vicinity for many years. His remains were interred 4n Oakland parents and familyjjave the sympathy of the entire community in this sad affliction.
