The big, drill ball * was crowded with spec: 3 tators and the Coleville band was there to add something a:little more harmonious to as | the music than the usual martial band. . Capt. Taylor’s company lined up with fifty-five men and three officers, only two having been absent and be it said to their credit that besides excellent drilling in all the formations their equipment was in such sbape that the only flaw that was found was a small button off a khaki uni- form in one of the lockers. Some time ago an N. G. P. officer who was here, unofficially, aud happened to see Co. B manouvering and drilling said toa WATCHMAN representative, **Well, that is about the best drilled and best bandled company I know of in the Guard,’’ =o the fact that the boys showed up so well at 1n- spection was not so much of a surprise. .

Elder, of the 5th Reges., Capt. William Simpson, Company H, 12th Regt., and Lieutenant and assistant sor- geon R. G. H. Hayes, of the 5th Regt.

Se A REMARKABLE ACCIDENT. — Frank Harris who lives up about Matternville, met with an accident last Thursday that was more thrilling than disastrous, though he and a team of horses might very readily bave been killed. He was crossing the mountain toward Martha Furnace with a load of produce. It was made up of apple- butter in crocks, eggs in crates, apples in bags and such other articles as a farmer has to sell. He had roughlocked his wagon to go down the mountain and wae getting along all right until he struck a very icy place and the front carriage slid over the side of the road. Horses, wagon, produce and all wenta-sliding down over the ice and rocks until finally they lodged against something that stopped their flight. Harris was quite badly bruised and cut op. In fact it was about all he could do to get down the mountain for help. The men who went up to save the team found the one horse standing up, the other down and almost choked to death. Surprising as it may seem only a iittle of the applebutter was spilled and about two dozen of the eggs broken, notwithstanding the wagon was broken in two. eee.

Mellick, the proprietor of the city pharmacy in Philipsburg, was manied to Miss Caroline Kessler in that place on Saturday evening.

Should the former win it will make four out of the seven games and give them the oup, so it may be inferred that the Acad- i} emy boys will not let them win it if it is at all possible to prevent it. The games have all been very interesting and have at- tracted good crowds. Youshould go down tonight, as this will likely be the hottest game played. eet ——The Rev. Wm. Brown, who for the past three years has been the very efficient pastor of the United Evangelical church in this place, has been assigned to : and on Sunday eveniug delivered his fare- well sermon to the congregation here. Dar- ing his pastorate the church property has been very materially improved and the strength of the congregation augmented so that his reassignment is a matter of much regret here, for besides being a conscien- tious, indefatigable christian worker he is a very pleasant, wide-awake citizen.
