H. Jyce, General Freight Agent of the
Penrvlvania railroad, shipments for
the hibition held in Fort Woods will
be surged regular current rates to Cen-
tre fall, but all such shipments afler
thee xhibition, if unsold and re-shipped
witiin thirty days afier the close of the
exiibition, will be returned free to orig-
inl point of s ipment over any of the
lives by which it came.
This free return will only be granted
pon presentation of the original paid
freight bill, and a certificate signed by
he proper officer of the exhibition, to
the effect that shipments are unsold ex-
hibits.
In addition to the above mentioned
privileges granted, arrangements have
been made by which all camp equipage

concession to all exhibitors and no
doubt will be duly appreciated.
Articles for exhibition must be con-
signed to the owner at Centre Hall sta-
tion, Centre county, Pa., on the Lewis-
burg and Tyroze railroad. The freight
must be prepaid. In marking goods do
not omit any of the directions.
All articles for exhibition should be
shipped in good time so that they may
reach Centre Hall the week before the
picnic.
Upon receiving authority from exhib-
itors we will have goods unloaded and
placed on grounds. A reasonable charge
will, of course, be made for unloading
and hauling goods from railroad siding ;
also for hauling to cars and reloading
for shipment.
‘While the picnic management will
not be responsible for breakage that
may occur in unloading and reloading
goods at the grove, yet the greatest care
will be taken to prevent any damage to
exhibits.

A Row about Wool.
“There will be & monkey and parrot |
time,” says the Cleveland (0.) Plain- |
Dealer, “when the wool-growers and
woolen manufseturers get a hearing be- |
fore the Congressional committee charg- |
ed with the duty of framing the wool and |
woolen schedule of a revised tariff. The
manufacturers want the highest possi- |
ble protective wall around their factor-
ies with all the fences down around the |
sheep farms. The wool-growers would |
like cheaper clothes made wholly from |
the wool of their flocks sold to the manu- |
facturers at high prices. - For campaign
purposes last year the wool-growers and
the woolen manufacturers appeared to
be working together for hich ‘duties, but
it turns out that the manufacturers were
quietly cheating the wool-growers and
the Government together by cunning
evasion of the wool duties. It isinter-
esting to see how these “honest” high
protectionists swindle each other whilst
preying on the public.

A War of Races Threatened.
How Alabama has been Excited by a
Colored Editor.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., August 19.—An
article in an independent paper at Selma,
Ala., edited by a colored preacher named
Bryan, has created a stir in Alabama.
An editorial in the last issue abused the
whites for various injustices against the
colored race and concluded as followed :
“Were you (the whites) to leave this
south land in twenty years it would be
one of the grandestsections of the globe.
We would show you moss-back crackers
how to run the country. You would
never see a convict half-starved and de-
priving honest workingmen of an honest
living. Tt is only a matter of time when
throughout this whole state affairs will
be changed and I hope to your sorrow.
We were never destined to always be
servants, but like all other races will
and must have our day. You now have
| Yours. You have received your revolu-
tion and civil war and we here predict
that at no very distant day we will have
our race war and we hope, as God in-
tends, that we will be strong enough to
wipe you out of existence and hardly
leave enough of you to tell the story.
It is bound to come and just such hot-
headed cranks as the editors of some of
our democratic journals are just the
right set to hasten it. TItis fate,”
The whites in Selma are taking steps
to prevent Rev. Mr. Bryan, who is now
absent from the city, from ever coming
back anymore.
The executive committee of the white
republicans’ protective tariff league, with
headquarters at Birmingham, met here
to-day and passed a resolution denounc-
ing the article as incendiary and
dangerous and tendering their moral,
and if necessary their physical aid, to
stop such utterances.

Railroad Men to be Pensioned.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
is about to adopt a policy toward its eni-
ployes more important than any in its
history. Arrangements are being made
to establsk a pension system, the first of
its kind in the United States, and
will attract wide attention. The pension
plan will be introduced in connection
with the company’s relief association.
At the end of the association’s last fiscal
year, the third of its history, it was found
that there was a surplus in the treasury,
after the payment of all benefit of $170.-
789. The existence ofall this balance
suggested the introduction of pensions
to superannuated members of the Relief
Association.
A special committee of the Advisory
Committee of the association approved
the project, the Advisory Committee it-
self took the same attitude, and another
sub committee was appointed to propose
a plan. This committee met recently at
Cape May, aud adjourned after discuss-
ing various plans to meet at a latter day.
There are certain complications to be
adjusted before the pension system can
be put in force. Those employes who
have put their money into the associa-
tion did so with the understanding that
the fund was to be drawn there from
only to pay death, accident and sick
benefit.
If the new plan, involving the pay-
ment of pensions as well, shall be adopt-
ed, the consent of members of the asso-
ciation will first’ have to be obtained,
but no difficulty from the source is an-
ticipated. President Roberts has taken
a hearty interest in the plans, and has
offered to recommend to the companies
associated in the fund a contribution of
$50,000 to help establish the pension
Sy stem.
Kentucky's All Right.
“Kentucky shows up with an increas-
ed Democratic majority,’’; says the St.
Louis Republic, “in spite of the extraor-
dinary and desperate efforts of the Re-
Dablies ns to reduce it. In this, however,
Kentucky has simply kept in line with
the other States. In" every election that
has been held East or West since last
November, when the Democrats carried
the country by 100,000 majority, the
Democrats haveincreased their vote, and
in most of the spring election won sub-
stantial victories. The’ cause of Tariff
Reform gains adherents with every
month that passes, and the probability is
that if an election were now held the
Democratic majority in the country at
large would reach 500,000 votes. An
especially gratifying feature of the Ken-
tucky election is the fact that the Con-
stitutional Convetion has carried. With
a new constitution, framed in accordance
with the needs of the times, the old State
will enter upon a new era of prosperity
and enlightenment, and will breed more
Democrats than ever.”

Col. Dudley's Prophecy.
Philadelphia Record.
WasniNGroN, Aug. 12.—:One day
last spring a year ago,” said a well-
known Republican, “I met Col. W. W,
Dudley rushing as fast as his cork leg
would let him from the Senate to the
Heuse, busy as he constanfly was then
with some scheme for bringing about the
nomination of Ben Harrison for Presi-
dent.
“What are you wasting time and
strength in this way for?” I said to him
as I stopped him. “You ean’t nominate
Harrison, and if you could he'd go back
on you. He’sa selfish, cold-blooded fel-
low, who would never do anything for
you.”
“You never were more mistaken in
in your life”, Dudley said; “Harrison will
be nominated and elected, and no man
was ever as loyal to his friends as he will
be.” T wonder what Dubley thinks
now?”
The Mighty Rainfall.
Was It any Wonder We Had a Flood?
Secretary of Internal Affairs Stewart
has issued a report relative to the recent
floods in Pennsylvania, caused by the
rainfall of May 80 to June 1. it was,
says the report, a gigantic rainfall,
amounting to an average of eight inches
in depth of water, falling on an area of
more than 12,000 square miles, and cov-
ering the mountain plateau and its east-
ern declivities from JoLnstown to Har-
risburg, and extending northward from
Somerset to McKean and Tioga counties.
This area of rainfall was oval in form, |
but broader toward the North Branch
of the Susquehanna. Around this cen-
tral body of the flooded country the
quantity fell off rapidly to six, four and
two inches, although the highlands in
“Maryland and Virginia, at the south,and
in northeast Pennsylanta and southern
New York had flooded rains of three
to five inches in depth.
There is no recorded experience ap-
proaching it in magnitude. In Eastern
Kansas and over much of Missouri it
reached an average of 3 inches, In Ill-
inois and all the States intervening to
Pennsylvania, the quantity varied from
2 to 4 inches; the observers of the sever- |
al State weather systems reporting very
fully. All their reports have been re-
ceived and consulted, in writing and
paper. The States southward, includ-
ing Tennessee,had genral and heavy rains
nearly equal to those just referred to.
And while in the Ohio “valley and vic-
inity ot Pittsburg there was less rain,
the first mountainous elevations east-
ward were deluged with rain, the south-
ern border having several destructive
local storms or cyclones, such as are char-
acteristic of the southern border/of an area
of general disturbance.
The vast weight of water falling is
shown by a calculation based on the
weight of a cubic foor, 85 feet being
a ton. In the surface of a square mile
there would be 66,377 tons for an inch
in depth, 531 016 tons for a depth of
eight inches. The quantity falling on
12 000 square miles, at this rate, is 6,-
752,246,000 tons. The force exercised by
vast bodies of water in motion is irresisi-
blo. In concluding the report says.
“In all respects the conditions were
the most remarkable and peculiar of
those known to attend « general rainfall,
and the vast masses of water thrown
down over the surface of several States
other than Pennsylvania, only add to |
the difficulty of explaining the origin of
the storm, or the sources from which so i
great a body of water can have been
derived.
Prize Farms.
The National Agricultural Society of |
France has awarded a gold medal to Ar-
thur Brandin, of Seine et Marne, and to
M. Tetard, of Saint et Oise, for the ex-
cellent management of their farms. The
Brandin farm has been in the family for
upwards of 200 years and its records
since 1820 were produced. Just 100
years ago it grew an average of twenty-
one bushels of wheat or oats per acre,
which rose to 26 bushels in 1850. Short-
ly after, commercial manure was for the
first time employed, and the yield of
of wheat went up to 32} bushels'per acre
and of oats to 41 bushels. Subsequently
the lana was drained, guano was ap-
plied and artificial grasses were grown
and fed down, but the average of the
wheat crop dropped to 30 bushels, though
the quality was bett r. This system was,
followed until 1870 without improve-
ment in yield, when thesoil was analyzed
ard found to be rich in potash but de-
ficient in phosphoric acid and lime.
These elements were then supplied, tests
were made to secure the varieties best
adapted to the land, and the yield per
acre for the last seven years has risen to
663 bushels of wheat and 62 bushels of
oats. M. Tetard’s farm of 812 acres,
half way between Paris and Chantilly,
has 810 acres in sugar beets, the yield
per acre of which, as well as their sugar
content, has steadily increased. The
average yield of wheat on 250 acres in
1887 was 85 bushels per acre. A large
herd of cattle is kept during the winter
to consume the beet pulp, in addition to
which the cattle get some cottonseed
meal or cake, with about six pounds per
head of wheat straw, chaff or corn fod-
der.— American Agriculturist.
They Divided The Prize.
How Eight Bethlehem Men Won $5,000
in the Louisiana State Lottery.
Saturday's express brought from New
Orleans several packages of bank notes
consigned to H. I. Kerschner, of Beth-
lehem. The sum total of the amount
was $5,000 and it was the payment of a
one-twentieth part of ticket No. 58,607,
which number drew the second cash cap-
ital prize of $100,000 in the July draw-
ing of the Louisiana State Lottery. The
$5,000 was not alone Mr. Kerschrnor's.
He wasone ofthe eight Bethlemites who
bad a pool and held the lucky ticket.
Mr. Kerschner was seen yesterday after-
noon by a reporter and said: “About a
month ago some Allentownians were
talking about the Louisiana State Lot-
tery atthe Sun Hotel,in Bethlehem, and
George Hirst the bartender, and I de-
cided to invest $1 apiece in the lottery to
try our luck. Several of the employes
of my stable and a few of Mr. Hirst’s
i friends joined us and we made a pool of
$8, each throwing in $1. Right tickets
were got and I locked them up in a safe.
The drawing came off’ on the 16th and
several days afterwards we were shown
the prize list and found that one of the !
eight tickets had made a ‘hit.’ Tt was
a twentieth part of ticket No. 58,607,
which drew $100,000. We gave our tick-
et for collection to the Adams express
company and the money ($5,000) was
very promptly forwarded to me. After
paying a commission for collecting our
prize there remained something like $4, |
960, which we divided, each of the eight
getting $620.12.” The lucky members
of the pool have deposited their “bood-
le’ in Bank. Mr. Kerschner says this
was the first pool that was made up in
Bethlehem and all consider themselves
1ery lucky.

Five thousand dollars for
Carried off by Toy Balloons.
CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—At Sheffield
i Park yesterday an Italian peddler of toy
baloons attempted to serve two customers
at once and in doing so let go his string
of bright colored globes. The cord got
twisted about the left arm of 2-yeur-old
Sophie Schwab and the buoyant rubber
bubble: started heavenward, taking her
along. Her mother fainted. The by-
standers stood horror-stricken as the bal-
! loons swept close to a tree and the in-
fant grasped a handful of twigs and
checked her flight.
A young German was ascending the
tree in an instant and then crept out on
i the branch nearest the child. At this
moment Sophie's strength gave out and
the balloons, suddenly released, went
again upward at least 100 feet, drifting
then out over the lake. Gust Koch, a
sharpshooter, grabbed a repeating rifle,
hurriedly jumped into a skiff with two
companions and pulled out into range.
Koch succeeded in piercing several of
the balloons, each successful shot helping
the bunch to descend. Before it finally
reached the water the boat was at the
her feet wet.
An Old Game Revived.
“One of the neatest tricks I have
heard of in some time was perpetrated
by a pair of burglars in this city lately,”
said a police captain yesterday. ‘The
younger of the two had entered a pri-
vate residence while the inmates were at
tea, and the elder stood outside on
watch, The rifler was discovered and
soon chased from one floor to another by
two gentlemen members of the house-
hold. Somebody called ‘police’ and
the outside burglar, drawing his revolver,
responded. ‘There, there. ladies ;. don’t
make any fuss. Tl take care of this
fellow,’ he said, and, making a rush, he
grabbed his mate by the collar and gave
{ him a cuff on the neck as he led him
| down the stoop. The family breathed
| more freely and the gentlemen prepared
| to go to the station house to swear out
{ acomplaint. When they arrived there
{ nobody had heard of the case. The
| burglars had vanished. It’s an old
trick, but T haven't heard about it in
| this neighborhood in many years.” —

| Fistic Encounters of Ancient Greece.
| At the fistic encounters of ancient
| Greece, boxersincreased the force of their
{ blows by the weight of iron rings, shield-
ing their nuckles, and fastened by means
of a broad leather strap that was grasp-
ed in the hollow of the fist, thus giving
the fighter a chance to shift the ring
whenever a heavy blow happened to
bruise his hand at any special place.
How human skulls could weather such
work might seem quite a puzzle, but

was used, the thin yellow rind grated
off upon a large lump of loaf sugar,
then squeeze the juice into a saucer
through a strainer to avoid the seeds.

and lay around it a border of the finest
: putt paste made in the proportions of a

'a pint or half a pound of sifted flour.

| The Free Passage to Gettysburg.
! There appears to be considerable misunder-
standing and dissatisfaction concerning the
provisions of the act of May 8th which pro-
vide for transportation for certain soldiers of
the late war to Gettysburg upon thie occasion
of the dedication of the monuments of the
Pennsylvania {regiments who participated in
the battle. The following letter from Mo-
shannon voices this dissatisfaction :
P. G. Mekk,—Dear Sir: Have you seen the
Actof our Legislature as passed last winter in
regard to the free passage to Gettysburg? Do
youfnot think that it is misconstrued by par-
ties having the matter in charge, or if under-
stood aright is it not a nice piece of business
or meanness to deprive others than the ones
who participated in this special battle of a free
spot and little Sophie did not even get
they were fighting at Vicksburg or on some
other hattlefield, they are just as loyal now
and pay as fair a proportion of the taxes into
the fund out of which the expenses are met.
1 do not speak so much for myself as for oth-
ers who I know to he more worthy and are not
able to pay their way. Oh, if weall belonged
to the 148th Regt., P. V.
In answer to the questions propounded by
our correspondent we give below the Adjutant
General's interpretation of the Act of May sth,
1889, which determines who are entitled to
transportation to Gettysburg. Whether those
to whom transportation is not allowed are
fairly treated we will leave our correspondent,
and others who may be interested in the mat-
ter, form their own conclusion : x
1. Honoral ly discharged soldiers now resid-
ing in Pennsylvania, whose names at the date
of the battle were borne upon the rolls of any of
the Pennsylvania organizations named in par-
agraph 2 of this article, are entitled to trans-
portation from the railroad stations nearest to
their respective homes, by the shortest or
most convenient route to Gettysburg and re-
turn. This transportation will allow the
holder the privilege of remaining at Gettys-
buag not less than one week, and of stopping
off at any station en route. Members of the
G A. R. entitled as above, who desire, can
have their transportation cover the period of
the annual encampment ; that is from Septem-
ber 5th to 16th.
2. The Pennsylvania organizations referred
to in the Act of May sth, 1889, are the follow-
ing: .
11th, 23d, 26th, 27th, 28th, 20th, 46th, 49th,
53d, 56th, 57th, 61st, 62d, 63d, 6sth, 69th, T7lst,
72d, 73d, 74th, 75th, 81st, 82d, 83d, 84th, 8sth,

3. Soldiers of the above mentioned organi-
zations (1) not honorably discharged, or (2) who
were mustered into service subsequent to
the battle, or (3) who are not now residents of
Pennsylvania, are not entitled to transporta-
tion.
4. Soldiers of the above mentioned organi-
zations who were honorably discharged before
the date of said battle are not entitled to trans-
portation. (Opinion of Attorney General,
dated July 29th, 1889.)
5. Soldiers of other commands than those
specified in paragraph 2 are not entitled to
transportation. Therefore, soldiers of other
States and Regular troops, even though they
participated in the battle and are now resident
in Pennsylvania, are not entitled. Neither
are men of organizations designated as “Em-
ergency” regiments or companies so entitled.
6. Transportation cannot be furnished for
relatives or attendants of soldiers entitled to
transporations.
7. No provision has been made by the State
for furnishing quarters or rations at Gettys-
burg, Itis suggested, however, that inasmuch
as the Department of Pennsylvania, Grond
Army of the Republic, will be in eamp upon
the battle field from September 7th to 13th,
members of that organization arrange to he
quartered with their respective Posts under
