MILLIIKIM'S FACTORY.—At last the
Hosiery Factory is an assured thing
and articles of agreement between the
manufacturers and the stock holders
are at present being drawn up. The
site for the factory building lias
been secured . The tract of land, sit
uate west of Penn street between .Ston
er's and Reighard's farms,lias been pur
chased of Mr. Jordan, Aaronsburg, for
that purpose. It contains ten acres ot
ground and affords ample room for all
the necessary buildings. After satis
factory arrangements have been arrived
at with the Railroad Company about
rates,work on the building is to bepros
eeuted as soon as practicable,and by the
first of the new year we may hope to
see the establishment in running order.
This is the reahzition of a wish that
wasfosteied by Millheim's enterpris
ing men for many years and as we said
before will be a Godsend to the farmers,
merchants, mechanics and laborers
within a radius of at least tiye miles. It
is hardly necessary to say that the peo
ple in general will give the factory a
hearty welcome. As matters progress
we will give our readers further partic
ulars from time to time.
—The immense crowd at the band
festival last Saturday evening again
showed that our people never go back
on a festival,no matter which oiganiza
tion holds it. The conspicuous feat
ures of this occasion were in the lirst
place the tasty decorations and neat ar
rangement of the rink. Another re
markable sight was the cake table cov
ered with about 50 excellent cakes of
all descriptions and makes, furnished
by the ladies of this place and Aarons
burg. The presence of the Brushyalley
Band and the numerous cake walks
were a great help in making the affair
pleasant and spicy. The ice cream and
oysters were pronounced delicious but
the crowd was doomed to disappoint
ment for at about nine o'clock it
was announced that the cream was all
sold. The net proceeds amount to a
small fraction less than S7O and the
members of the band take this opportu
nity to return their sincere thanks to
the community and the surrounding
country for the liberal patronage receiv
ed. The band had splendid weather
and the boys haye the satisfaction to
know that by bard 1 ibor and good man
agement they had the most successful
festival of the season.
—The following account from the
Lincoln Co. (Kansas) Democrat of a
Sunday school picnic at which Mr. P.
B. Stover, a former Centre countian
figures as superintendent, shows that
Kansas is wide-awake in the Sunday
school cause :
The Pleasant Valley Sunday School
held its annual picnic in the grove of
Mr. Marsh on the 28th ult. This grove
is but four miles fiom Lincoln, along
the south side of Bull Foot creek, and
is one of the most delightful spots that
picnicers could desire.
On the occasion referred to above,
every tiling was arranged to give the
school a pleasant day. A carefully
prepared programme of exercises was
cariied out. Seats had been construct
ed sufficient to seat 200 persons com
fortably, and a rostrum built for the
singers and speakers. Promptly at 11
o'clock the school was called to order
and the exercises commenced with
singing by the chcir and prayer by Uev.
H. L. Yarger.
The superintendent then made an
address of welcome, after which the
meeting adjourned until after dinner.
Any one looking over the table would
not think that Lincoln county was suf
fering from a famine. Chickens,cakes,
pies and everything good was there to
replenish "the inner man." It was a
dinner such as only the farmers of Lin
coln county can prepare.
At 2 o'clock the school reassembled
and listened to singing by a well drilled
choir and several recitations by the boys
and girls of the school. Hev. H. L.
Yarger, Lutheran Pastor of the Ells
worth and Lincoln Mission, was pres
ent and spoke for 30 minutes on the
importance and beneGt of Sunday
School work in a community.
A larger crowd than was expected
was present, and everybody was pleas
ed, and voted it a grand success.
May there be many more such gath
erings in the years to come is the wish
of one of the VISITORS.

—Lines DedicAted to the memory of
sister Irene Decker, deceased, late of
Nittany, Pa.
Another new-made crave,
Another sad good-bye;
A loving sister has passed away
To yonder realms on high.
Where many loved ones gone before
Welcome her entrance at the door.
Death came to her rebel,
Her patient suffering is o'er,
She's left us a little while,
She's only gone before. •
The angel ol death by light of day
Wafted her spirit front earth away.
Another tie in heaven,
Another one gone home.
One less our number here below
1 Will add to our heavenly home.
There she's awaiting us from afar
Waiting and watching with gates ajar.
Peaceful her slumber,
Her memory blest,
Gently we laid her
By the side of the rest.
The old churchyard will never be forgot,
We'll cherish in memory the sacred spot.
Where many grassy mounds arise
To remind us of those
Who now liye in the skies,
In that beautiful mansion,
The home or the blest
Bhe's waiting aud watching for the rest
