Istli. in the rink on l'enn street. To make the aiTair of greater interest they expect to hayo a number of cake walks and also extend invitations to neigh boring bands to make the welkins ring with their music. When the band boys undertake a thing of that kind it promisrs to bo the event of the season. The band purposes to get new instru ments and we hope our citizens will give them all possible encouragement in their undertaking. — l The picnic of tho Union Sunday School in the mountains south of l'eini Hall was a very agreeable gathering. There was a good address made in the forenoon by Hev. Shambaugh.of Spring Mills and the schoolsang a few popular hymns. The Millheim band was there and tilled the forest with their stirring airs. Tho center pieco of the pro gramme, dinner, was remarkable for abundance and palatablencss, and was enjoyed by everybody as only a dinner in the woods can be enjoyed. Owing to the picnic at the Cave tho crowd was not as large as on former occasions, but that fact did not mar the pleasures of the day in tho least. The mountain people understand how to get up a nice picnic. —Mr. Ellsworth Glenn, of Kansas, made his appearance in town one day last week and is the guest of C. W. Ilai tman. lie is a son of J. W.

Our town was enlivened Saturday morning by music from the Millheiin band, who passed through he:© on their way to a picnic west of here. A great many of our people took in the festival in Millheiin Saturday eve ning and report it a success.

Harvey Musser, Esq., from Akron, Ohio, has come to make his annual pa rental visit. Ilatvey looks well. Tho potato crop no doubt will be cut short by the rot, of which there is con siderable complaint. Notwithstanding there will be a large yield. The treasuier of the Centennial fes tival held on tho evening ol tho Till, inst., reports about s.">o as tho net pro ceeds. Roys. Yeaiick, Ref., and Deitzler. Luth.,preached in Millheim on last Sunday evening. The night being very pleasant quite a large number of our town members attended these services. Jacob M.

Something like a report reached us that there is to bo a Soldiers' reunion at Lewitburg cn tho 9th of Sept. next. Can you, Mr. Editor, giye us anything to veiify this report,also whether there will be an excursion by the 11. It. com pany. ( Will do so next week.—Ed.) Ira (Iraniley has very wisely taken it into his head that there is less danger in extracting stumps by machinery, than by blowing them out with dyna mite, he is doing very successful work with the anchor machine. The well selected variety of fruits, vegetables and llowers, placed In the al tar of the Reformed church preparatory to the harvest services on last Sabbath morning, was a duty performed by a few of the lady members of the congre gation. We say the arrangement was well made. Anotiieh. SMITH TOWN. Roasting ears. Mrs. Mary Smith has gone to Madi sonbuig on a few weeks visit to friends. Alaman Keen has a broad smile for everybody he meets since the arrival of that little girl. Three large droves of cattle passed through here in two day's time last week ; as high as SO in one droye. Mr. Smith, that popular cow drover of Union county was also in our midst, buying up cattle and sheep. Wm. McGregor, one of Philadel phia's police officers, was here last week, on important business. lie is a sou ot that old lady who was visiting here last fall and died at the residence of John Harshbarger. The Farmers' Friend wheat seems to sell at sight. J. 11. Frai.k sold 200 bushels last week at $2.00 per bushel, i He is canvassing Nittany Valley this week. It is a shameful disgrace to our com munity, the way some of our young men (if such they may be called) conduct themselves on Sunday nights on their way home from services. We hope they will try and be more peacable in the future. Smithtown's picnic at the cave on Saturday was a glorious day for our young folks. All enjoyed themselves highly. Humor has it that we will have an other ice cream party in the near future. JUMBO. MADISONBURG. Ilenry Hazel painted his fence,which greatly improves his home. Miss Mary Frank returned from Lewisburg. She is on the sick list. Miss Fairy Shafer, in company with her sisters, Katie and. Bertie, and a Miss Lutz, all from Reading, are at present visiting their friends in and a bout town. The farmers complain of the ground being too dry to plough. Some of our citizens should take the condition of their boardwalks into con sideraticn and repair them. Wm. Noll and L. Fullmer have built a water!auk for Mr. Wantz. The work is a credit to our mechanics. There was a strong Mingle man in town on Thursday. He was so full of talk that we feared lie would burst, but he returned home before the terrible collapse occurred. When you c>'ll again we wi l l have a cooler ready for you, Mr. Y. Hurrah for Shaeffer. Mrs Rev. Basom left for her home near Carlis'e last Wednesday. To-day (Tuesday) Rev Basom started for campmeeting in Union county, lie will be absent about a week. Mr. M.

Bierly, at this i place, a visit. \ Mrs.Smull is mending quite fast from ' her recent illness. STILL ANOTHER. RED • RSBURO. The shrill whistle of the threshing engine can now he heard. Some of our farmers have already threshed out their entire crop, while others aie waiting on the machine to do the same. The harvest home picnic whieh was held at Penn's Cave lust Saturday was well represented by pleasure seekers from this vicinity. They report a pleasant time. Some of the potatoes are rotting in the ground and consequently the people are raising them. The crop is not very good as the bugs did much damage. Mr. John Weaver and wife,of Wood ward, spent last Saturday and Sunday among ft lends in this neighborhood. Wilson Coal, who is employed as blacksmith in John Fisher's carriage shops, met with a painful accident last Thursday. While he was hammering a red hot iron a small piece flew luto his eye and cut the eye ball. The prob abilities are that he will lose the eye. Guiswite 6c Co. haye suspended work on their saw mill, as the mill needs some repairs, on account of the burst ing of tlie cross cut saw. It is almost a miracle that the accident did not I rove fatal to some of the hands. Pieces of the saw were hurled in every di rection with terrific force, and passed closely by their heads. One of the pieces struck a two-inch plauk, cutting it almost in two. Mrs. George Weaver received a se vere kick in her side by a cow and was compelled to take to her bed for sever al days. She is now able to sit upon a chair a few hours at a time. A certain young man of near Wolfe's Store boasts of having cradled four a cres of oats in one half day. Of course we have only bis word for it, but hope II is true. The schoolhouse question is again the talk between the citizens of Rebelsburg and Kreamersville. In our opinion the latter are entitled to a school building and should have it. SQUIBOB. ApENTSigp er. Durable, perfect in operation, una of (Treat domextlo utility.
