‘WEATHER. —My last bulletin gave
forecast of the storm waves to cross the
continent from 5th to 8th and 10th to
14th. The next will reach the Pacific
coast about the 14th cross the west of
the Rockies country by close of 15th,
great central valleys 16th to 18th and
eastern States 19th. This disturbance
will bring some of the heaviest rains of
the month, but these rains will not gen-
erally occur where most needed. The
tendency will be decidedly toward too
much rain in the south eastern States
and a deficiency toward the northwest.
Warm waves will cross the west of
Rockies country about 14th, great cen-
tral valleys 16th and eastern States 18th.
Cool wave will cross west of Rockies
country about 17th, great central val-
leys 19th and eastern States 21st.
Mgrs. NoLaN’s NEw HOTEL AT AT-
LANTIC CIity.—The Daily Union, in
speaking of resorts that will be popular
at Atlantic City this summer, devotes
nearly a half column to the new hotel
Lucern which Mrs. Mary Nolan, for-
merly of Snow Shoe, has just taken
charge of. Amcng other things the
Union says :
Mrs. E. A. Nolan, who last year con”
ducted the Ocean Queen hotel, has
leased the Lucern, on Massachusetts
avenue, between Atlantic Avenue and
the beach, and will conduct it on the
broad and generous principles which
made the Ocean Queen so popular.
The house has been refurnished from
basement to roof, not a remnant of its
former internal arrangements being left
buta range.
The double dining room is commo-
dious and cheerful, and it is needless to
say that with the new furnishings the
sleeping apartments will be all that
could be desired. These rooms are ail
cheerful, command a view of the ocean
from two sides, and on the north side aft
ford a fine view of the Tnlet and bay.
An admirable feature of the Lucern is
the tower view, which is expansive and
grand. It covers the mainland beyond
the bay, the Inlet to Brigantine Beach
and beyond, and a fine bird's-eye view
of the city to the west and north. From
this tower guests may observe the many
exciting yacht races, from start to finish,
that sail from the Inlet.
The Lucern is within easy reach of
the beach from two points, but a few
steps from the street car line and adja-
cent to steam railway depots. It isin
the center of a group of the finest and
most popular east end hotels, and is in
all respects most delightfully situated.
It contains nearly 60 rooms and easily
accommodates from 80 to 100 guests.
- The house has many conveniences to
commend it, including new and perfect
sanitary arrangements, toilets and baths
and a large yard. 1t is lighted by elec-
tricity and gas.
Itis safe to say that the house will
lack in nothing to make it a popular
summer resort. It will be open for bus-
iness May 1,
MEMORIAL DAY AND ITS OBSERV-
ANCE.—As time rolls on and we see
the ranks of our honored veterans grow-
ing thinner every year we are led to
realize that it will not be long until the
last one of those who fought, when the
country found herself in an extremity,
will have been laid to rest. Then the
Memorial day will bring forth the true
spirit of a rising generation. As it is
those who have survived take charge of
the annual day of garlanding the
graves of comrades gone before, but
when the last blue coat has been called
home the time will have come when
those who have never fully realized the
distressing scenes of battle will be called
upon to keep fresh its memories of men
who gave them their Union.
Gregg Post has ever been the custo-
dian of Memorial day ceremonies here
and, as in the past, the preparations
have been began early for the proper
observance of May 30th.
The following bulletin has been is.
sued from head-quarters relative to the
proceedings for that day.
COMRADES. — Preparations are being
made by Gregg Post 95 for the usual
observance of decoration day, May
30th.
Program will be given by committee
in proper time.
All comrades are expected to be pres-
ent on the occasion, and all soldiers.
sailors and citizens, civic societies and
school children are respectfully invited
to unite with us 1n this grand memorial
to pay our annual tribute of respect and
place floral offerings on the mounds of
our nation’s dead.
As the years roll by the record of
death increases ; we miss the familiar
presence of many who have joined the
grand army above.
It is fitting that we who are left
shouid stand shoulder to shoulder, as in
the past, to show proper respect and
Pine Grove Mention
—On the first Sunday in June Rev. A. A.
Black will preach the memorial sermon
in the Brethren church.
—Last Friday, the court appointed A. G.
Archey, road supervisor to fill the va-
cancy caused by the death of John C.
Gates.
—A lawn sociable will be held in the spa-
cious yard of O. B. Krebs, on Main street,
Saturday evening, May 11, under the au.
spices of the ladies society, everybody is
invited to spend the evening in social en-
joyment.
—We have received from Edwin P. Sam-
ple an invitation to the Graduating Exer -
cises of the Downs’ high school, which is
to take place on May 14th. Although Ed.
is getting along so nicely that he bids tair
to rival Ingersoll as an orator, he still re-
members his old home with kindness,
We predict for him a brilliant future and
will not be surprised to hear of his going
to Congress as a good Democrat.
—Last Saturday evening the spacious par.
lors of Dr. G. H. Woods presented a high-
ly attractive appearance in honor of W.
H. Knarr and his bride. The hostess Mrs,
Woods was assisted in entertaining by a
bevy of young girls who made radiant
the rooms with their dainty costumes
and happy smiles. The town glee club
finally got on the ground and with the
aid of the smaller boys and their
tin horns, inflated the midnight air
with music. The entertainment was so
pleasant that it was declared the most
enjoyable of the season.
—Mayor Homer Shunk Thompson, after
an absence of eight years came over from
Juniata County, for a short visit to his
friends here, Time has touched his thin
locks lightly, but his beard is well sil-
vered and although he would have us be-
lieve he was not enjoying good health he
tipped the scale at 2). The Mayor has
passed the meridian of life but is so quick
and active that he is thought to be many
years younger. He Sundayed with hisold
time mess-mate J. G. Heberling, who is
an ex postmaster as well as the Mayor.
During their conversation we detected
much gall over the memorable saying
“and the next day it snowed” and no
wonder for they no longer need ‘‘Cush-
ings Manual” for the majority rules. The
major’s unfailing courtesy has made him
as 1mdispensable to the merchantile busi-
ness as his bravery and integrity did to
the war.
—The following program has been ar.
ranged by Capt. J. O. Campbell post, 272,

—DEATH OF MRS. YARNELL.—On Thursday
May the 2nd, Mrs. Mary Jane, wife of H.
B. Yarnell, died at her home after a brief
but painfulillness. While working in the
garden she took cold which soon devel-
oped into pleuritic pneumonia. She was
s0 much better until just before her
death, that her friends had hopes of her
recovery, when suddenly a relapse came
and with it death—which to her had no
terrors for she was a gentle, loving
woman and a true Christian.
Mary Jane Lytle was born at the old
Lytle homestead, one mile south of the
Penna. State College. Her age was 59
years 7 months and 15 days. In early girl.
hood she joined the church and was ever
an active worker. For years her sweet
voice led the singing in Dr. Hamill's
church and it was noticeable that she dis-
played a wisdom far beyond her years.
September the 12th, 1865, she married
H. B. Yarnell, to them were born six sons
and three daughters, none of whom are
married but Mrs. Benjamin Corl. ¢ One
son is in Nebraska, one in Baltimore, two
are in Wyoming and two sons and two
daughtersare at home.
Her three sisters living are Mrs. Will-
liams, Mrs. Herman and Mrs. Letterman,
and her brothers are Griffeth, of Kansas,
Dr. Lytle of Philipsburg, James and Wil-
liam of Lemont, and John at the old
homestead. Her whole life was devoted
to the comfort and pleasures of others
and she is now sweetly resting where
sickness and sorrow and death enter not.
On Monday the 6th, at 9 o'clock she was
buried at the Branch by the side of her
parents. Rev. C. T. Aikens officiated at
the service and her four brothers were
the pall bearers.

A Pine Glen Wedding.
In the beautifully decorated country resi-
dence at Pine Glen, May 1st, 1885, at 2 o'clock
was solemnized the marriage of Miss Mary E.
Beates, eldest daughter of Mr. J. H. Beates, to
Mr, Mark Pedrick, of Wilmington, Del, by
the Rev. R. F. Hassinger of the Lutheran
church.
Promptly at the appointed hour, in answer
to the wedding march, which pealed forth
from the piano by the touch of Miss Edith
Beates, the bride and groom, with Miss Anna
Beates and Walter S. Yothers, as bridesmaid
and groomsman, walked into the parlor and
the ceremony was begun. They were soon
pronounced man and wife.
After the usual congratulations the party
repaired to the large dining room, and were
seated at the tabie which groaned under its
weight of salads, fruits, cake and other
more substantial eatables, but they soon dis-
appeared, as the appetites were equal to the
occasion.
After dimner all enjoyed them selves until
6:30 o’clock when the bride and groom, ac-
companied by some of the young people,
started amid a shower of rice to Gillentown, on
the Beech Creek R. R., to take the 8:23 p.m,
train for Philadelphia and thence to Wilming-
ton, Del., where a reception was tendered
them in their home, which was being pre-
pared during Mr. Pedrick’s absence. The
bride is a charming woman, one that is loved
and respected by all her acquaintances.
She is kind, pleasant ana sociable.
The groom isa merchant of his city do
ing a nice business. A man of pleasant man’
ner and an agreeable companion. The com-
pany present consisted of Mr. and Mrs. J. H*
Beates, Misses Anna, Maggie, Jennie, Carrie
and Edith Beates, C. H. Beates and family, Mrs.
E. J. Beates and family, Master Harry Beates
Mr. and Mrs. J. A . Heckendorn, Rev. and Mrs.
Hassinger, Dr. and Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Arthur
Graham, W. H. Yothers of Driftwood, Pa.
Curtis Y. Wagner of Ballefonte, Pa, and Miss
Ida Cramer.
The presents were numerous, but the writer
is not prepared to define them. The flowers
were just beautiful, and were all offerings
of friends.
In all it was a pleasant affair, and a pleasant
day, and a day that will not soon be forgotten.
That their union may be one of happiness,
comfort and prosperity, is the wish of the
writer. J. H.

Rupyarp KipLing To REvisir Inpia.—Muach
interest will be felt by the public in the re.
turn of Rudyard Kipling to India. He has
just agreed to furnish a regular contribution
to The Cosmopolitan Magazine for the coming
year, beginning his work upen his return to
India. India has never been critically con-
sidered by such a pen as Kipling’s and what
he will write for The Cosmopolitan will attract
the widest attention, both here and in Eng-
land.
Perhaps the most beautiful series of pictures
ever presented of the Rocky mountains will
be found in a collection of fourteen original
paintings, executed by Thomas Moran for the
May Cosmopolitan. To those who have been
in the Rockies, this issue of The Cosmopolitan
will be a souvenir worthy of preservation.
This number contains fifty.two original draw-
ings, by Thomas Moran, Oliver Herford, Dan
Beard, H. M. Eaton, F. G. Attwood, F. O,
Small, F. Lix, J. H. Dolph, and Rosina Em-
mett Sherwood, besides six reproductions of
famous recent works of art, and forty other
interesting illustrations—ninety-eight in all.
Though The Cosmopolitan sells for but fifteen
cents, probably no magazine in the world will
present for May so great a number of illustra-
tions specially designed for its pages by fa-
mous illustrators. The fiction in this manner
is by F. Hopkinson Smith, Gustav Kobbe, W.
Clark Russell, Edgar W. Nye,and T, C. Craw’
ford.
A WoxperrurL Work.—The Standard Die-
tionary published by Funk & Wagnalls, New
York, is meeting with remarkable success
amoug learned men in all parts of the giobe,
The success of the work is not so surprising
when its completeness and excellence are
taken into consideration. The following are
a few comments made by English commenta*
tors: England, April 5, 1895, says: “The
merits of the Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dic-
tionary are indisputable, and are abundantly
attested by a large number of unimpeachable
authorities. It is a remarkably fine specimen
of American co-operative literature, and
should command a wide and deserved popu.
larity.”—London Times.
Scotland, April 4, 1895: “Looked at from any
point of view, it is a monumental work—a
work which reflects the greatest credit on all
concerned in its production.”’—Glasgow Her.
