auspices of tho Callleplan Literary Society.
ho aiibjett was "Germany," and a goodly au
dience was highly entertained. On Wednesday
afternoon the school exercises began at 2 o'clock
with prayer by Rev. Dr. McCron. Prof. Hoff
man then favored the large audience with some
excellent Instrumental music, and Carl Grls-
wold and Ircd C. Morris engaged In a contest

ladles and gentlemen of the Preparatory class,
Normal School, won by the latter, the latlles
missing 8 words and tho gentlemen 5 out of a
hundred pronounced. The contest In elocution
between tho Senior and Junior classes was very
Interesting. The former led off with Foe's
"Bells" rccttcjj very creditably, and the latter
followed with "The Great Bell Roland" by
Theodore Tilton, also very well done. Judge
Elwell, Rev. S. Mltchel nn.l Rev. Mr. Wirt,
thejeommittee on the contest, decided in favor of
the Juniors,
Tho performance by the Gymnastic class was
exceedingly well executed and resulted in the
award of diplomas to all the members of tho
class, by the committee appointed to report on
them.
A contest between two sections of the B class,
model school, was a drawn game, the committee
not being able to decide.
In the absence of the principal, Dr.Griswold,
Judge Elwell presented the gymnastic class
with their diplomas, and made a few appro
priate remarks, congratulating them upon their
success in tills department, and urging them on
to renewed efforts for equal success in all their
undertakings.

A new feature of this Synod was the public

on the subjects of Christianity and Church His
tory. On Saturday there was a business ses
sion. On Sunday afternoon the Synodical cel
ebration of the Lord's Supper took place. In

administered to nine young men.
This Synod consists of about thirty ministers,
mostly young men, apparently good for many
years of intelligent and efficient service in their
calling. There are about fifty five congrega
tions within the limits of the district, which ex
tends from Selinsgrove up the West Branch to

A MELANCHOLY SCENB IN COUItT.
The regular business of the court was Inter
rupted this morning for a few moments In or
der that a gentlemen, well known In this com
munity, might bo sentenced. District Attorney
Rice arose amidst profound silence and ad
dressed tho court as follows: "If it please the
court, it becomes now my painful duty to move
for sentence, in tho case ofE. P. KIsner, con
victed of a very serious offence, to wit: that of
castigating an editor. With reference to the
character of tho prisoner I have this to say :
that ho was a classmate of mine in college for
four years, and I never, during that time, knew
him to be guilty of an ollence like this. Iain
Informed that he has n very large family, con
sisting of father, mother, brothers anil sisters.
I believe he has no children that he knows of;
but he says he is willing to have if that will
lighten his sentence. Ho I a a poor man and I
feel like asking the mercy of the Court in his
behalf. I think n sentence, as lenient as the
circumstances of tho case will permit, will en
courage him greatly to reform."
Afier Mr. Rico concluded, Stanley Wood
ward, Esq,, arose and spoko as follows :
If your Honor please, when I first entered
Into this case I supposed we had a good de
fence. I was tinder the Impression that casti
gating an editor was not considered an offence
in this court. Upon looking up the authorities
however, 1 find no such exception. I cannot
account for this except by supposing it to bo
like the case"of the parricide, where, under the
old law, thero was no mention made of the
crime because no ono was supposed capable of
committing it ; or else, perhaps, it is because
there were no newspapers in those days.
There Is another thing I wish to caution
your Honor about, and do so with great mis,
givings; it Is this: that although the prisoner's
appearance is strongly against him, yet I as
sure your Honor that he is not addicted to the
flowing bowl. On that jioint, your Honor, I
would liko to swear a witness upon reflection,
however, I believe 1 will not do that ; the ac
cused is afraid such testimony would weary
the Court. He desires that I shall make
pleasant for the Court. As I before remarked,
although his appearance is violently against
him, be is not a bibulous man ; be gets his com
plexion entirely from Harvey's Lake.
Die prisoner pat in the criminal dock in the
farthest corner.
Judge Harding E. P. Kisncr, stand up
We have a sorrowful duty to perform in your
case. Have you any lamily .'
Mr. Kisner Yes, your honor, I have a father
and mother upon whom I am dependent for
support.
Judgo Harding Well, your case is a sad
one, e do not learn that you have any clul
dren. It is unfortunate that you have not a
few, that they, too, might help to support you
you seem well fitted by nature to endure a great
deal of support, and if your florid complexion
is not due to the flowing bow) but entirely to
the reflection of Harvey's Lake, then you cer
tainly must take it out in "support." The sen'
tencc of the Court is that you pay a fine of five
dollars to the commonwealth, and the costs o1
prosecution, and that you stand committed un
til this sentence be complied with. You
have to go into the hands of the Sheriff.
The prisoner then went out to find the Sheriff
and, finding him, proceeded to lituordate the
fine. 117tfS Jiarrc lleeord.

An attempt was made one night last week, by
some unknown burglar to enter tho house of
W. H. Jacoby on Centro Street. Mrs. Jacoby
was, fortunately, awakened by the noise made
in trying to open a window, and lighted the gas,
which frightened the intruder into flight. An
investigation in thn morning showed that the
would be thief had nearly succeeded in gaining
an entrance, as a nail which alone held the
window had been broken oil'. Several matches
which had been lighted were found under the
window. Could this burglar have been aware
that the Register and Recorder lived in that
house? Or, worse yet, could he have known
that he was an ex-editor? Of course allex-edl
tors are wealthy tho newspaper business as
everyone knows being an absolute gold mine
but editors have tu work hard for their money
and it is the most base and rascally of offences
to rub them, Mr, Jacoby's loss on this occaiou
was principally in sleep but he thinks he can
make it up. Our sympathies are with him in
his trouble.

Mr. Haves has Issued a circular which for
bids all federal officers to take part "in thu
management of political organizations, caucuses,
conventions, or election campaigns." And
there will hereafter be no assessments for polit
ical purposes perhaps. This will simplify
matters in the Republican parly of this coun
ty by eliminating Mr. Postmaster Beckley as a
po-sible candidate for Chairman of the County
Committee or Treasure- of the funds thereof.
Of course he could not hold either of these po
sitions without doing political woik for the par
ty, and if he accepts either he will in obedience
to the requirements of the circular resign the
postniaslership of course. It will prove a grea t
relief to Mr. Beckley as ho will not bo annoyed
hereafter by political wire pulling in payment
