TUB BLOOaISBURU STATE NOIiMAL SCHOOL.
We have received a copy of the "The Cata
logue and Circular," of the State Normal
School, at BIoomBburg, Columbia .'county, in
this State, for the years 1878-79. In reading
this pamphlet we were very forcibly impressed
with the high standard of Ihe instruction which
characterizes this institution. On n fuller ex
amination of the pamphlet we observed tLe
names of the gentlemen who constitute the
Board of Trustees and the Faculty of the school
and thus It was manifest why this standard was
so marked.
It ought to be a subject for vast pride that
there is an educational institution in
this State which merits the commendation that
due to the liloomsburg Normal School.
Modest, unpretentious, earnest, able and com

Now, with the heat of summer and the re1

which is local, general, and at this season alii
pervading, we quoto the following from a letter
written by a lady and. it may be added, her
testimony is worthy of acceptance In the mat
ter of a trial which is entirely practicable, at
the same time assuring a Ipretty feature in
house-decoration ,- "I have lived in a town.dur-
ing that time my sitting-room has been free

WATER MEETING.
A public meeting of Ihe citizens of Blooms
burg was held In the Opera House, on Saturday
evening, Aug- 2, 1879. The meeting was
organized by electing Rev. D. J. Waller Sr,
President and Frank P. Billmeyer, Secretary.
Mr. L. N. Moyer being called upon, stated Ihat
the citizens had been assembled together, to
again consider Ihe question o f a supply of fresh
water for our town. The plan formerly con
sidered and thought expedienl,of inducing fore
ign capital and enterprise to build our water
works, must now be abandoned , because of the
requirement, that our Town Authorities agree
to pay $3,000 per year for fire hydrants. It Is
necessary then to take hold of some more feasi
ble plan, and now is the time to do it. Now,
while our wealthy and influential citizens are
seemingly anxious to have some efficient and
reliable means of extinguishing fires and
while nearly every person in our 'town is fav
orably inclined toward obtaining a supply of
fresh and wholesome water, Is the lime to de
velop the earnestness already shown and push
the matter to a prompt and successful termina
tion.
The proposition now, is to Lrganize a home
company, with a capital stock of not less than
$25,000 nor more than $50,000 In shares of the
par value of $10.
Through the personal canvass of a self-
appointed commilleelherehas been already sub
scribed stock to the amount of $14,000. This
is certainly encouraging for home enterprise.
Let each property owner manifest his inteseit
in the subject by taking at Meast one share of
stock, aud soon water works will be a real-
i'r.
Remarks were msde by many of the other
citizens presen t. The whole matter of water
supply and fire protection was openly and fairly
discussed and a degree of enthusiasm was pro'
duced, which resulted In additional stock sub,
Bcripllons of $0,230, making a total of $20,230,
in bona fide supscripllons.
On motion of Win. Neal, the President was
authorized to appoint a committee, to make a
vigorous canvass of the town and solicit subi
acriptions tor stock, where upon Wm, Neal, D,
Lowenberg and L, N. Moyer were appointed
members of said committee.
On motion of O. B, Brockway.lt wasreolved
that when this meeting adjourns, It adjourn to
meet on next Saturday even!ng,Aug. 9th, 1879,
at 8 o'clock In the Opera House, to hear Ihe
report of said committee. On motion meeting
adjourned. ,

AN IMPORTANT GEOLOGICAL FACT.
Gtotagy has shown ns Ihat nature accomi

surface conformation (lowly, Every year the
river makes Pi channel deeper, Ihe glacier
wears a deeper gorge In Ihe Alplno rock, and
the ocean tide deposits the rand It has crumb
led from the rocks upon which It breaks. We
nole the earthquake and Ihe detailing hurri
cane ; but these changes are so gradual man
seldom observes them Juntll the channel has
become overhanging cliffs, or a mountain has
disappeared before the Icy stream, or the ocean
has given us a Florida. Thus it is in disease.
Our attention Is attracted by acute diseases
as fevers, cholera, etc,, while chronic diseases
(often the most dangerous In result), being
slow in their development, are seldom noticed
until they lliav) made an almost Ineffaceable
Impression npon Ihe system. Persons believ
ing themselves comparatively healthful are
ofUmeathe victims of these diseases, and only
become aware of their presence when relief is
almost Impossible. Diseases of Ihe liver and
stomach are (be commonest of these chronic af
fections. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery and Pleasant Purgative Pellets are never
falling remedies fo r these diseases.
They produce .a healthful secretion
of the bile, prevent Indigestion by rei-

CONSI8TORIAL -MEETINO.
The officers of Ihe Orangevllle Reformed
Charge met In annual session on the 2nd Inst,
Opened with singing and prayer. The salary
account with the pastor for the year just closing
was balanced. His parochial report was read
and adopted. During his pastorate of ten yeara
in this charge he has preached 1590 sermons,
delivered 700 lectures bsptized , 120, confirmed
132, rrceived on certificate 33, buried 110, and
officiated at 50 weddings. The charge during
this time has been more than doubled in its
membership and benevolence.
The following resolutions were then unani

Sesotred, that the Orangevllle Reformed
church as now constituted wss never In a more
prosperous condition than at Ihe present.
Resolved, that our pastor, the Rev. A. Houtz
has labored among us ten years with commen
dable success and maintained during all this
time the good will and love of, all our mem

our people that he Jcontlnues their pastor. On

Respecfully submitted,
S. M. Howell,
In some neighboring counties we notice
small towns and village! with less advantages
than those we possess do a largo and thriving
business. Their facilities are less, and the
question arises as to tho cause. As to Blooms
burg we believe it comes from tho want of a
true public spirit. Obstructionists and old fog
ies oppose every improvement, and what is
done is done by n few. Wo remember how
strenuously the erection of a poor house was
opposed when our taxes were fifteen mills on
the dollar for poor purposes. A'owwe have a
fino poor house, which is paid for, but a few
inmates,and n tux of nearly four mills. Again
our town organization was contested inch by
inch, yet who would go back to the previous
chastic and reckless management 7 So
the improvement ofour streets and sidewalks
was strenuously opposed by many, and yet we
believe that therd is not a citizen in town who
desires to return to the old condition of affairs.
Wo Aaie gas, and mil have water. Then we
will challenge th. state to name a handsomer
town. Wo are splendidly located for all sorts
of manufactures.
Our railroad facilities are perfect our edu
cational advantages are without an equal, and
our location as to health unexcelled. Nestled
in a beautiful plain between the Susquehanna
and Fishingcrcek, with magnificant scenery
and splendid drives, with fine hotels and cheap
rates, Bloomsburg invites the tourist, the in
valid, those who would retire from business or
enter into it, those who wish to educate their
children or seek a summer resort. Our citi
zens arc morsl, We believe in proportion to
its population there is not as large a church
going peoplo in the State. Tho laws are faith
fully executed, and crime is rare.
But we lack local enterprise in many respects
especially in the support of local papers. To
those abroad they are an index of the business
and culture of tho place. We regret to suy
that business men do not advertise their busi
ness, as a rule, and tho few who do so expect
to .have 'the work done at starvation rates.
Patronize your home papers and your business
is bound lo increase.
VAN t'LEVE IN A NEW ROLE.
Some of the Remants cf Ilia last visit to Tamaqua
Where the Emngelist is now Summerinfj,
Thousands of persons in Tamaqua are thor
oughly acquainted with Major H. L. Van
Cleve, the eminent temperance 'evangelist who
came into town last April and preached and
prayed for the cold water cause. Nightly in
the sanctuary Ihe portly pol-gutted form of the
major moved to and fro over the pulpit, and
thrilling stoiies were told of how he became a
convert from the botlle, and how others were
saved from early graves by giving up their
toddy and gentle tipple. Van Cleve was a per
suasive speaker, generally very lengthy and
gave particular attention to money matters.
There is another picture to the good work.
While in Trruaqua he gave Mr. George Wil
ford, tailor, on Hunter street, orders to make
up a very stylish dress suit Ihe one he travel
led and exhibited himself in being a very
seedy one. On Decoration day he visited town
coming from St. Clair, and calling at Wilford's
ordered a cassimere suit, which the evangelist
now wears and has not paid for. At the same
time the Major went into the while vest bust'
ness, ordering two at a stroke, and thought
that while he was about Ihe thing he might as
well order a winter overcoat also. But th
latter orders were never filled, A day or two
afterward Mr. Wilford delivered the goods and
was promised Immediate payment, but the pay
ment has never been made. Van Cleve took
the Foundry Hill route to the depot where Mr,
ilford had gone to meet him. The evangel
ist gave a plausible excuse and escaped
again.
un his recent trip around the country, or
ganizing temperance 'unions, pledge societies
and meetings to draw li cash.Mr. Van Cleve
was accompanied by the Misses Emm. and
Irene Randall, whose expenses he was to defray
and pay them b' ddei $10 a week. Recently
the Major sent tbe young ladles home with a
note to Mr. Waller Randsll.telllng htm that he
(Van Cleve) would pass through Tamaqua on
a certain day, and Mr. Randall should meet
him at the train and receive some money. The
appointed day passed two weeks ago and al
though Mr. Randall has visited every train
since then, he has filled to meet the "Evan,
gelisl," How many others over town had
money borrowed from them la not known and
perhaps never will be.
The Major Is now summering in Philadel
phia and writes to Mr. Randall lo simply
address his letters in that way which indica
tes a desire to conceal his whereabouts. While
la town he showed a remarkable taste to hurry
along the financial meetings, more to than
could be thought possible in one engaged In
his labors. He has since bern in Pottsville,
St. Clair and Catawlssa. The man should be
passed around. Temperance people every
where have an Interest In getting such men as
Major II. L. Van Cleve out of aight and where
they belong, Ihmafua Cbun'tr,

WILLIAM B BOONS.
Our community was startled on Monday
last to learn of tho sudden death of William
B. Koons, well known to tho people of our
county. From the Wilkes Barre correspondent
of the&ranfon Republican and other sources
we glean the following information.
"W. B. Koons, late proprietor of the
Bristol House of this city, died yesterday
morning at lhis residence on Public Square,
about nine o'clock. He had been Indisposed
for about a month, acd on last Friday night he
was seized with a paralysil of Iho brain, spinal
chord, and left side as far as tho loins. Ho
became unconscious at that time, and did not
afterward recover sufficiently lo recognize any
of his famlty. His death was therefore not
unexpected, and ho passed away without a
struggle. His age was a (rifle over forty-nine
years. He Ieayes a wife and two sons, both
young men, tho elder of whom is now. and
has for some months been, tho proprietor of
the Jlristol House,
The deceased was a veteran in the hotel
business. He took charge of the old Exchange
Hotel at Bloomsburg In 18G0, upon the
retirement of Dcebler, and conducted it until
1809, when he assumed the proprietorship of
the Luzerne House here, but remained only a
short time, going back to Bloomsburg to be
again the host of the Exchange, which not
long after burned down. Mr. Koons rebuilt
the hotel, making it, both in dimensions and
style, rather extravagant for tho village, and
It proved a financial failuro. He came to
Wilkes-Barre in Novomber last aud took the
Bristol House, keeping it until May, when his
older son succeed him as proprietor.
W. U. Koons was the son of the lato ex
Sheriff William Koons, of Shickshinny. He
was a very prominent member of tho Masonic
order, belonging to Lodge 205 of Bloomsburg.
He was also a chapter man and a prominent
Knight Templar of the Commandery at
Bloomsburg. The remains will be taken from
hero to Shickshinny to-morrow morning on
the 10:20 train, and interred at Hunliugton,
six miles from the former village, in tho burial
place of the family.
Deceased, though not long a resident of
Wilkes Barre, has made many friends here by
his uniformly courteous and accommodating
manner. He has been deservedly popular as
a landlord, and but for his desiro to keep a
better house than the town in which it was
located seemed to warrant, would have been
a successful one. His death has occasioned
hearifelt sorrow among those who knew him
here, and he will doubtless bo interred with
Masonic honors by tho organization of which
he was an officer with few superiors."
nernay add that whilst a citizen of this
town he served as a member of our Town
Council and Board of School Directors.
DEATH OP JACOB 0. LEIDV.
Carb'-ge, Mo. Aug. 2 1879.
Editopi Columbian : A great many of
the reade-s of your valuable paper will, no
doubl be pained to learn of the death of Jacob
Leidy, formerly of Buckhorn, Columbia County
Pa., which occurred In this cily on Thursday
morning last. Mr Leidy has for over two
years past been suflerii,g from a disease that
has Indeed baffled the skill of the best of phy
sicians abroad as well as at home, He visited
various health resorts in this State and Arkan
sas, and early last fait went to his old home at
Buckhorn and Bloomsburg, and consulted the
best physicians there and at Philadelphia
without receiving any encouraging hope of cure-
It was not (positively known until after his
death what the exact nature of the malady was,
when it was discovered to be a large tumor
weighing six pounds about two Inches above
the heart.
Mr. Leidy was born in Buckhorn in 1835.
In 1801 in company with his brother Martin,
he went to the Pacific coast, and visited a
number ot territories ; returning to his home
for a short time only he again returned out
into the West on a prospecting tour, and final
ly in 1809, with his brother, Jackson Leidy he
came to Carthage, where ho has lived with
the exception of a short period ever since.
He first started in business by keeping a hotel,
and selling out, went to Texas and engaged
for a short timo only in buying cattle for the
Eastern markets. Returning to Carthage he
embaikcd in the furniture business. In 1872
John Bottcnfield, of Ohio went into partner
ship with him, and in 1874 Martin and Jack
son Leidy, his brothers,were added to the firm,
all remaining therein up to Ihe time of Mr L.'a
death, under the firm name of Leidy Bros. &
Co. Through the energy and ambition com
bined with good business qualifications of J.
U. Leidy tho firm has established an immense
business far exceeding anything of the kind in
Southwest Messouri. The other members of
the firm are good business men and will main'
tain the reputation the establishment possesses.
The business houses, during the funeral ser
vices were closed, by order of the President of
ine iioaru ot Trade, ol which Mr. L. was a
member. Mr . Leidy was held in high esteem,
and considered one of tho leading and most
active business men in this '.city, and whoso
word was as good as his bond. Ho was in
deed an example of diligence, perservance and
integrity. Peace to his ashes.
Respectfully,

A DRIVE ACUOSS THE MOUNTAINS.
(Continued from last week.)
My last letter left us at our journey's end,
the village of Alba, situated between Canton
and Troy in Bradford county. We find here a
very different country from that which we left
in Columbia county. It is almost exclusively
a dairy region, "bradford county butter being
celebrated far and near. Very little wheat is
raised there. Il is a common thing for the
farmers to keep from 15 to -10 cows. It was
very interesting lo visit the dairies of some of
our friends and observe tho systematic manner
in which all the work was done. It must be
extra quality of pasture which will enable these
dairies to produce on an average 7 lbs. of
butter to a cow per week, and that with no
extra feeding. And another thing which ice
liked was the ice cream with which our friends
served us. It was simply rich cream, sweetened
flavored and frozen.
Alba is a small village, but it has a wide
reputation for fine wogons. They have
contract now for a number of coaches for
Williainsport, to be run by Peter Ilerdlc in
opposition to the street cars.
It is said that uerdio is about to put up
some sort of manufactory at Alba, Two miles
from here are the famous Minequa Springs,
formerly owned by Mr. Ilerdlc. The principal
building was destroyed by fire last winter. The
property was lately sold for $12,000. In
drive through the ground we noticed several
tents belonging to persons who were "camping
out ;" we stopped and took a taste and smell
of the waters and felt convinced of the medici
r ol properties thereof.
Canton and Troy ore thriving towns vying
with each other in prosperity, Troy aspires
to be the county seat of tbe proposed Minequa
county.
At Alba we had the pleasure of attending an
entertainment, consisting of readings aur
recitations, given by the noted actress Mrs. E
L. Davenport and others, Mrs, D, has
summer residence near canton.
Afier nearly a week pleasantly spent among
friends, we start on our journey borne by a
dillerent route. e go down Towanda Creek
to Monroetown 4 miles from Towanda. Thence
we follow up the Sullivan and Erie R. It, to
Dushore, New Albany li a little place on the
road, 8 miles from Dushore, which was con
sptcuoos for ill signs, almost every house)
displaying a lettered board.
Dushore although not the Capital', is tho
Metropolis ol Sullivan county, We made a
short stay of half an hour here and discovered
that Dushore boasted a "five cent counter,"
Wo bought a hatchet with a view to "camping
out," but as night came on we reached
"Schreyvogels," and being Informed that they
had but one large room with four beds to
spare," we concluded to try that kind of
camping. After 44 miles of travel we found
these four beds very consoling. Arising early
in tho morning we find the climate very
different from what we have been accustomed
to. We are very glad lo stay around tho stove
while the breakfast is preparing. One of tho
members of the party finding two bears chained
in the yard, endeavors to mako friends wilh
them but on receiving a nip from one of them
retires in disgust.
Leaving Schreyvogel's wo journey over 8
miles of very rough road, all tho way through
the woods, without seeing a house till we reach
the hotel at Long Pond. Capt. Conner of
Orangevllle, who assists tho proprietor, F. L.
Kickelts, received us very cordially. We spent
a short time in this place c f exceeding beauty
and quietness and then started on Iho last 25
miles of our journey. As wa go down Fishing
Creek wo pronounce Columbia county roads to
bo superior to any wo have passed over on our
journey, and at about three p. in. wo near our
little village, nestled at the foot of the knob,
we are ready to exclaim, 'Home, sweet Home,'
One op the Party.
The invalid finds in "Dr. Lindsey's Blood
Searcher" nature's great restorer. It Is wonder
All.
The Camp meeting at Rupert under the aus
pices of the A. M. E. Church has been well at
tended, and excellent order pr served. On
Sunday last we are assured that at least 2000
people visited the ground. A boat load of
125 people are said to have come from Ber
wick. A train on the P. A R. R. will leave
Willlamsporl on Sunday at 8o'cIock a. m. and,
return at 5. p.m. We trust that the license
laws will be strictly observed.
Collector's Warrants. We have prepar
ed a form, and have on hand a large quantity of
blank "Collector's Sales," which have been ap
proved by Ihe highest legal authority in the
Courts of this county. At Twenty Cents per doz
en we mail any number to the Collector order.
Ing them. A Collector, when compelled to ad
vertise property, must post up not less than
three notices in Ihe most public places in his
borough or township.
