IL Marsden, of Somerset, ad 8. J. Balls, of Beriia, a committee appointed by the Court for that purpose, was dedicated with appropriate ceremonies oa Friday afternoon last. Notwithstanding tbe extreme cold weather several hundred people from various sections of th county wer present and participated in tbe exorcises. Former Director Jacob W.

Pack, who took an active part in erecting the Hospital, presided and made a brief address, in which be clearly outlined the object and purposes of the new building. Devotional exercises were conducted by the Chaplain of the Home, Rev. C. F. Geb-hart, asfuated by Rev, F.

P. Saylor. Director Adam S. Miller rad a history of the building its inception to completion. Director M.

Shoemaker, president of the board, delivered the dedicatory address. Snort addrease were delivered by H. L. Baer, Valentino Hay, John U. L'hl and others.

Just before the proeram was taken np Architect W. U. Stoddard, who had designed and superintended the construction of the Hospital, in a neat little speech delivered tbe keys of the completed structure so tb rd of Directors. Somerset waa tb fourth county in tbe State to avail itself of the provisions of the Act of Assembly providing for tbe maintenance and care of the insane by counties. Ta day eighteen counties have followed the example set by our Poor Directors and have Hospitals in course cf erection.

The new County Hospital is a two-story brick sir jctur feet, finished throughout with hard wood, and equipped with hot water bmt, electric light aud ustbrooms. It will comfortably accommodate 100 patients. patients are now entertained at tbe Hospital and by March 13th next Somerset county patients to the number of IX wbo are now at the various Stale Hospitals, will be brought here and wi.l thereafter be provided for by the local authorities. The county receives ILJuper week for each patient maintained lit the Hospital from the State, and it is that the sum of will be received from that source during the current year, and ihiLt the total cost of erecting tbe Hospital will have been returned to the county in the course of three years.

Hoping to beautify and improve tbe appearance of the streets of Somerset, the women of tbe town have obtained permission from the Council to pnt in convenient places on the streets certain receptacles for th collection of scattered paper and other refuse matter tuat is at present disfiguring them, as well as threatening tbe safety of persons driving. The V. A. proposes to keep these cans in a sanitary condition and have tbe contents burned. Th litter now seen on our streets is certainly very unbecoming to any well-regulated town, and if seen by a visitor from Cuba would justly eutitls us to unfavorable criticism.

The towns of Pennsylvania as well as others all over tbe United States are im-provic wonderfully along esthetic lines, and Somerset can keep pace with the best, adopting modern methods ia the management of the streets as well as ia tbe management of other affairs. With ths comforts that sewers will bring us, and more care in tbe disposal of scraps and debris, oar town will not only be "beautiful for sanation," but famously healthy, neat and ivt To assist in carryiug out the plan proposed an entertainment will be given by our talented and patriotic young ladiea and gentlemen in the Opera House early in March. As every property bolder, every resident, and all visicors will be benefitted in tbe expenditure of the money raised, it is hoped there will be a liberal patronage. V. A.

orris, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania decided an important and interesting point of law. The case wan tried in Clearfield county, before Judge Gordon, and tbe facta were as follows: Raflertye had advertised a tract of timber land at public auction. orris was the highest bidder, and after th sal refused to takt tbe property on tbe ground that there was not th amount of timber represented in the advertisement, and because fraud bad been, as he alleged, practiced by tbe Rafferty. Rafferty tbea went on and read-vertised and resold tbe timber, and. it having aold for several handred dulla-s leas than Norrw bid, tbey sued to recover th difference, aud also their expenses connected with tbe resale.

On tbe trial, the cross-examination of plaintiffs, Mr. orris' counsel, Messrs. Swoope dc Pat ton, drew out tbe fact that Rafferty bad employed a party to bid op tbe timber land for them to a certain price, and defendant counsel contended that this vitiated the sale and rendered it fraudulent, and that tbe plaintiff could no- recover. Judge Gordon so held, and plaintiffs appealed the case to the Superior Coutt. and, in the decision handed down, the Superior Coart has affirmed the decision of Judge Gordon, and sustains th position of defendant' counsel that the employment of a party to bid for the owner at a public sale is a fraud on bidders, and renders th sale void and non forci ble.

Partiea who are Belling property at auction should note this decision, as it is understood that in some localities it is a common practice at sach sales to Uav some one or more persons to bid for the owners in order to prevent sacrifice of tbe property, but under this decision this is illegal.

Tn these days of fa-t presse and cheap methods of printing, a great deal of worthless reading matter and not a littls that ia positively harmful ia thrust npou the attention of tbe public This is true of books and true of newspapers. But there are standards for both, at by a discriminating public That standard is set very high in Pennsylvania, where school- houses abound and the reading habit is strongly developed.

For almost 114 years the standard news paper of stern Pennsylvania has been tbe Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette. Its name is a household word, ami it is a household favorite. It contains nothing unclean and is thoroughly up to date and reliable. It aims to present facts and not sensations it mission is tbe diffusion of information, and it never deviates from that course. It haa gained new friends every year of its long life and retained old ones by presenting the news in whole some, attractive shape.

It gives every day all the new of lb world that is worth printing or reading. It ia tbe rec ognized Pittsburgh authority in commercial and financial matters, but it is as much the farmer's paper as tbe banker's or the merchant's; as much the miner's aud mecbaaic'a as the millionaire's, for it watches for news of interest to all tbe people. It has won popular respect because it is trustworthy. In addition to all tbe news, gathered by the greatest newsgatbering jgency in tbe world, tbe Associated Press, it bas spe ial reports from alert and trained correspondents in all important fields; it has its story for tbe lovers of wholesome fic tion, its fashion notes and household hints for tbe ladies, its crisp comment rn questions of the hoar, its fund of information for everybody. Republican in politic and a supporter of tbe best principles of that party, it is not organ or mouthpiece of any faction, but is unfettered.

Tbe world is making history at a rspid rate in these days; the Commercial Gazette faithfully mirrors that history. It coats only a year for the Daily, or 11 for tbe Weekly. iXCEir SZATHS.
