R. reunion &l Tl.-w b r. last Thursday attracted a crowd variously estimated, but well up in the thousands. The old Fifty-Fourth Regiment, Penn'a Vols., at the same time and place held their reunion, which was attended by very large numbers of those veterans. With music, toog and dance, tbe soldiers of thirty -odd year ago were able to enjoy themselves like youngsters. The Third Annual IMcoic of the Odd Fellows and the Salisbury band com bined will be held at Salisbury on Sep tember 2d. These cessions have here tofore been very successful and unusual preparations have been made by the citi zens for this year's meeting. There will be a parade, baud contests, tireworks. dancing, and everything that goes to please a large and miscellaneous crowd. Some one in front of the Hotel Vannear the other day was remarking the number of telegraph, te lephone, and electric light wires that cross and recroas tbe Public Square in Somerset, when another indi vidual said : "Yes, it will not be long be fore enough rain can't get through them to lay the dust." Another gentleman, a stranger, then said: "If you had any muiuitoes in this region, you wouldn't need musquilo b irs!"' To the large number of fine double teams in Somerset, another was added a few days ago by Dr. Snyder Loutbar. The pair consists of two finely matched bright mabgany bays with docked tails; are fine driven and decidedly showy. They were selected tor the Doc tor by Mr. Win. Paroou, who is consider ed one of the finest horsemen and best judges of horse-Slash in this region. An epidemic of painting has struck Somerset, many private dwelling have I men brighleued up lately and some of the large business blocks, such as Cook vt BeeriU', the Mammoth Block, and others have been repainted. Tbe large Baer Block on the northwest corner of the Public Square, or Diamond, if you insist on making a parallelogram a dia mond, we are told is soon to be in the hands of the painters. It is singular how old superstitions hang on. A few evenings ago a big fat toad was bopping about on one of our sidewalks. Of course, a number of small boys were at once ready to crush tbe life out of tbe poor thing with clubs and stones, whea one of the older ones ex claimed: "Don't kill that toad, or your cws will give bloody milkT' Another, coining up, said: "Yes, and your hands will be full of warts if you kill itortouc'i it !" The Haielwood people who have been . . . ... . summering or tne past monin wuu . r. Austin Miller, on his delightful farm at Rickwood, will leave for their homes Thursday.

The pest of the small black bug that has been such an annoyance to house keepers and hotel gtiesU here for a month or more, seems to nave ueeu cui suun. The bug was a new one in this region about three -fourths of an inch long, and as black as ink. "Bugologists" in this re gion den't seem to have been able to clas sify it scientifically, but it was surely very annoying while here at its best. It bad a disagreeable way of getting down peo ple's necks, or uuder their underclothing. We hopa it has made its last bow to Som erset. Miss Mary Dirragh. accompanied ly her cousin. Miss Martha Shafer, whom she has bean visiting for the past lew weeks, returned to her home in Beaver, Pa., Saturday. Miss Dirragh and Miss Shafer have been asked to assist in serv ing breakfast to ths Tanth regiment in New Brighton and the banquet to be given Tuesday night iu honor of Com pany B, of which company Miss Darragh'a brother "Dan" is a member. and his many friends in Somerset will no doubt be delighted to hear of "Danny's" promotion to corpora! a short time ago. Since tbe almost universal use of beer has become a habit among drinkers, and str ng alcnouc annus nave oeen 10 a large extent relegated to the rear, drunk enness has become much more rare here than it was twenty years ago. On the oc casion of the visit of a circus like that here a few weeks ago, at that time, about a tenth of the people of tbe town and the - . ,, same number irom tne country wouiu have been gloriously full. When the immense crowd was here at Robinson's circus a lew days ago we Deneve mere was not a single arrest for fighting or drunkenness. TheTenth Home at Last, PITTSBURG'S ROYAL WELCOME TO PENNSYL VANIA'S FIGHTING REGIMENT. Greeted by President McKinley and Five Hundred Thousand Others. Pittsri-ro, Aug. 26. With cannon booming, bells ringing, whistles shriek ing, flags waving and mighty cheers from hundreds of thousands of throats, the brave Tenth Pennsylvania volunteer were welcomed home to-da?, afte mora than a year's gallant service in the Phil ippines. The reception tendered the re turning soldier wiil always be remem bered in this city as one of the greatest demonstrations of patriotism that has ever taken place in this country. A fund of foS.OuO, donated by the gen erous citizens of Pittsburg and tbe sur rounding towns permitted tbe committee having the affair in charge to make lav ish preparations for the home-coming, and nothing was left undone to show the "Fighting Tenth" how well their services for their country iu a foreign land were appreciated by the residents of their native Slate. Tbe only thing lack ing to make the day one of supreme hap piness was the absence of the brave and well beloved Colonel Hawkins, who led the boys in all their battles and shared in all their surterings, but who was de nied the privilege of marching at their bead when they returned borne to receive the plaudits of a grateful people. CROWD ESTIMATED AT OiW.OOO. The day opened threateningly, and lowering clouds hung over the city, but long before the arrival of tbe trains car rying the troops the clouds had disap peared and the sun was shining brightly. The crowds that lined the streets along the route of the parade from the parks in Allegheny to the reviewing stand iu Schenly park were almost beyoud count ing. Good judges estimate the number at not less than aOO.OUO. Tnis is not re garded as too high, and the attraction certainly warranted it. The decorations of the streets and buildings were overwhelmingly rich and gorgeous, and the five miles over which the parade passed was practically an un broken line of flags, flowers, festoons and bunting. Besides the fact that the soldiers, fresh from the scenes o' victory, were to be in the parade, w hich in itself was a memor able sight, it was also known that Presi dent McKinley, Mrs. McKinley, Major Geueral Merrill, Major General Francis V. Greene aud others prominent in national and state affairs were present. The reviewing stand of President Mc Kinley and his staff of notables in fccnen- ey park was a maguincent work or art. composed of silk p:ush and damask, all blended tastefully in the colors or tne national emblem. The reception to the Philippine heroes began shortly after 12 o'clock, noon, at New Brighton, the soldiers hsviug been delayed five hours, when a delegation of prominent Peunsylvanians welcomed tbe regiment as they crossed the borders of the state. After brief exercises and a hearty break fast, tendered by the citizens of New Brighton, the regiment was rushed into Allegheny at 30 p. in. The train came in three sections, aud immediately alter the soldiers bad disembarked the line of march to Schenley park, where tbe exercises were to be held, was taken up. The parade moved in the following order: Mounted police. Chief marshal. Gen. Cha-s. Miller, and staff. t'!. saving neu u attendau' K.d.sr' Knnion at iiockwoc I rn.erpi a veteran of the Ute . lt:er eliwr and publishe have for ing a bouse Silver Wedding. Friday, the i'Hh inst., was twenty fifth and silver anniversary of the wedding or Mr. and Mrs. James McKelvey. Some eighty guests responded to the invitations sent out. The handsome McKelvey resi dence on the corner of South Main and Patriot streets was beautifully illumi nated on the outside and the inside was most tastefully decorated with flowers and Dotted plants. A fine orchestra was in attendance to furnish music through out the evening. The weatner was ae- lighlful and the porches and parlors were filled with baDDV euesU. At about 10 o'clock the party filed up to the Hotel Vannear, but a few doors away, and aat down to one of Landlord Winters' best course dinners. Diuner over. Rev. II. N.

Ou reaching Scheuley park at 5 o'clock, the column was reviewed by President McKinley, after which be proceeded to tbe music pavilion, where the exercises were held. Seals had been provided for 25,000 friends and relatives of the mem bers of the Tenth in front of tbe music pavilion, but these were filled long be fore the exercises began, and thousands were nnable to secure even standing room within hearing distance. ACBOSS-KKAS FRIENDSHIPS. The President's speech was leceived with tumultuous applause, especially every reference to the gallant Tenth. v ben tne speaker enumerated tne sev eral regiments entitled to special honor, the boys of the Tenth took a haud in the cheering. As each regiment was men tioned the soldiers showed their delight in prolonged applause. The Twentieth Kansas (Col. Funs ton's regimeut) came in for an ovation. When the Nebraska regiment was mentioned the boys could with difficulty be stopped ; but the Utah battery's name literally set them wild. Cheer after cheer went up and the regi ment in chorus gave the Philippine yell several times. The Utah battery and the Tenth regiment were chums in the Phil ippines, and several times the Utah men shelled the jungles, driving the insur gents back while the Tenth slept after a battle. POMCEMES SWEPT ASIDE. An unlooked for incident occurred when the Tenth regimeut filed in front of tbe reviewing stand in Schenley park Shortly after the column began marching past the President, the crowd on the hill side, which was immense and contained many of the friends and relatives of the Tenth, coinmeuced to surge forward, and in a few moments the ropes and police men were swept awny and soldiers and friends mingled, passing tbe stand en masse. The movement had no ugliness about it, but was just a spontaneous dash of friends for long absent loved ones. After the soldiers had eaten their late dinner at the race track, the several com panies were taken in band by committees from their home towns and escorted to special trains to carry them borne. Some of the boys, however, decided to remain in the city over uight, tbe result being that the streets are filled with sol diers and those who are helping them to enjoy themselves. President McKinley left Pittsburg to night for East Liverpool, O., where he will be the guest of an old friend. - . . ..uiiatis, 1 e.act trip 8Vn has just returned to the EasU Her fi "woe -point was Harrisburg. . r ul lkt week during the Republican Stale Couven- m k . lnteresliug points on --nc battlefield. wage number of old soldiers ap- ''gw-Lireil.t r r.

The people of Somerset weia startled early last Weduesday afternoon by the report that tbe village of Shanksville, about 10 miles east of here, was in flames. What was at fiist only a rumor was soon confirmed, and a number of our citizens werequickly on their way Shanksvilie ward to see if they could be of any as- J distance. It seems that at about 2:30 p. va. the upper story of tbe Floto t Baltzer store was discovered to be filled with smoke. Mr. Floto at once started up the stairway, but when almost at the top a can of powder exploded and Mr. Floto at once fell back, cot in very good order, either. In a few momenta the fire ac quired great headway, aud with lack of organization and tbe want of apparatus there was little o be doue except to look on, although a great many men aud women worked hero icallf with bucket, but with little effect. The flames soon reached tbe building used by Charles Shank as an office and X. B. Wilson as a barber shop, on the same side or the street. Charles Shank's residence was then taken, and also two reaideucea belonging to J. J. Walker, and tbe store, residence and warehouse of Cbauucey A. BranL The hotel of Joseph Stall was saved, I nit damaged to the ex -tent of several hundred dollar. The wooden bridge which crwse th Stony creek was also dtroyed, but as it was about beiug replaced by a modem struct ure, the loss was not great ; however, the bridge contractor lost several hundred dollars' worth of ropes, etc Il is dirtl-ult to get at the ex vt amount of the leases, but they will probably ' reach fl8,fti0 or $-J0.0o3. An insurance I man who was on tb ground tell u that the insurance will amount to about Welcome Th "Teath" Boy. It is intended to give a royal welcome to the boys of the Tenth Pennsylvania Reeiment from Somerset, as well as such other members of that regiment from the county as may come with them. They will be met at the Somerset and tamtxia depot with carriages, an escort or K. r. Cummins G. A. R. Poet and such other old soldiers aa may be present. The march will then be taken up for the Public Square and Hotel Vannear, where an address of welcome wul be deliverea by that veteran soldier. Rev. Hiram King. At one o'clock Messrs. Joe Levy ana Howard Cromwell, the two returning members of the regiment will be escort ed to the dining-room of the hotel, where they and such of our citizen a wish to participate will sit down to a royal din ner; aa the boys have had a good deal of reception lately it is not intended to over whelm them with congratulations aud speeches, but let them have a rest, a talk with their friends and a look over the old town they have not seen for about a year. It is hoped that our citizen will have their houses duly decorated and do every thing to make tbe home coming of the brave volunteers pleasant. OH TO PHIL&DELFHIA ! 0. A.

Tbe reunion was a geueral one, except so far aa lhe Fifty Fourth Pa. Vols, was con cerned, which held its regular annual reunion at tbe same time and place. It was expected that Hon. W. Horace Rose, late Adjutant of the Fifty Fourth, would be present to make an address, but as it was impossible for him to be there he was represented by hi son. who filled Lis father plc very creditably. Al though th roll was not called, it is thought about one hundred and twenty five member of tha old Fifty-Fourth were present. The estimated attendance at the picnic wa about 3,000. Rockwood is uch a convenient point for the assemblage of people from all part of this county and adjoining coun ties on such an occasion, that It has been proposed to establish permanent grounds for the use of picnic and other assem blages by erecting pavilions, band Bland and such other structures aa are neces sary for uch occasions.

Politicians are now planning for tbe presidential campaign of 1900. but tbe war has so overshadowed all other mat ters that politics is almost unnoticed. Many people are of tbe opinion that the candidates will be the same as in IS!!, but there may be a "dark horse" who will win tbe race. Popularity has much to do with candidates. This is also true with medicine. Tbe most popular reme dy to-day is Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, and it has retained this for many years. Science never discovered the equal of this medicine for stomach, liver and kid cer diseases. It builds up solid flesh tissue, imparts vigor and vitality to all organs and makes life worth living. A bottle will make a big change for the better. Try it. Liacoln Club sleeting. The members of the Lincoln Club are hereby notified that a meeting will be held at tbe law office of F. W.
