TtlE LADIES' UNION W.NKVOLr.NT SOCIETY
OF BLOOMSBUHO.
The question, often asked within the last
year, "What is the Ladies Sociely cloirg?'' is
thus answered: From October 1877, to may
1878, there were distributed by committee
who reported their ibinga to' the sociely,
muslin, flannel, ollco, bedding. Islockines and
shoes, secondhand clothing, groceries nnd
provisions, to Ihe value of $193.43: besides
goods by committees who did not report, It
the value (estimated) of at least $57.47; making
a tote lot fully $250 00 for Ihe first fiscal year.
From May 1873, lo May lS79,.the society ais
trihuled goods and money to the amount of
$395.2.3; of which $81.3.) were contributed in
cash by citizens of ISldonisburg, nnd S100.00
in goods; $213 90 were furnished by n few of
the Jadies themselves.
It will be readily seen that the society has
not been idle; its working-members may hae
heen sometimes deceived into bestowing aliu
upon the unworthy; hut they feel that some
good has been accomplished, that their motives
aro pure and that iheir reward is sure.

FEEDINO A StlKItlFF WITH TAFFY.
If wo may believe the Columbia countv
papers, of which there are six, they are all
very glad that Ihe Ureenbark candidate for
sheriff has been elected. Since his election
Mr. Ent has been liberally f.d with "tally,"
aim is just reaping ine twees ol olhce to his
fill. It looks very much as ihouirh the tinners
were puckering their mouths for the sheriffs
palroiinge, in regard to which there is a de
lightful stale of uncertainty. The only paper
that gavo him uny kind of support is published
in Catawissa. and Bloomsburg papers indulge
ihe reasonable hone that the sheriff will keen
all his patronage at the county seat. Scranton
jievuoncan.
We have observed symptoms of "taffy" in
only one paper published in this county. It
takes an editor of n smart daily like the Scran
ton Republican to discern things that ordinary
mortals overlook. ButCapt. Ent is not the
kind of man to be influenced by sweet meats,
and he will probably distribute hi patronage
just as he pleases, taffy or no taffy.
THE SEA SEItl'ENT.
Fourtli Officer F. G, Howell, of tho steam
ship Anchoria, of the Anchor Line, aays that
while on the Newfoundland banks, ho siw a
sia serpent which he estimates to have been
fully as long as the steamship, According to
Lloyd's Shipping Uncord, tho Anchoria is 10S
feet long. Mr. Itowell was walking the bridge
at four bells in the afternoon watch, when he
noticed a disturbance in Ihe water about a mile
distant on Iho port beam. At first lie thought
the coiumot'on was caused by a sihool of
porpoises, but, on closer observation, lie changed
his mind. When he looked through a p-iir of
strong glasses he saw the head anil a portion of
the body of Ihe sea eerient rising above the
water. Portions of tho back of the creature
could be seen rising out of the sea at intervals
as it propelled itself along on Ihu top of Ihe
water. Its motions were similar to those of
the land snake as it moves along on the ground
The water in Ihe wake of the creature had been
lashed into foam by Its tail, Its head was
large and contained an enormous mouth, which
opened frequently an I spat out large quantities
of water. Its tongue, which was extremely
long, could be seen at limes, but no teeth
or fangs were observed. The body of the
serpent was round, and its color was black.
It was moving in the same direction as tin
steamship, and at a greater rate of speed,
When the creature haj got a Utile ahead of
the vessel it sank down into the water and
disappeared.
Several passengers were on deck at the lime.
Observing Ihe commolion on the sea, they
asked Mr. Baxter, Ihe second olllcer, uhat the
thing moving in the water could be. He vets
able to take only a liurrie.l glance, before he
was called to trio oilier side of the vessel in
Ihe perfprinar-ce of his duties. Wldi he
returned willi his glasses, the creature waj not
insight. Mr, Baiter says he thttiU It must
have been a sea serpent, and he places Implicit
reliance on Ihe fourth oflie er s st lenient. Mr,
Howell has made marine animals the subject
of study, and lias always believed in III
existence of sea serpents, hut his desire to see
one of thee animals had never before beeu
gratified.
MEjmiJMBIAN AND
MISS COOMnS AS CAMILLK.
Mlsa Coombs last night a. Dumas' affecting
heroine made her way deep Into the sympathies
or her audience. Her noting of her role was
an artistic and dramatic triumph, The nifn
tal agonies and the sufferings of disease sho do
picled with touching pow.r, and her jttp, her
eye, her voice, obeying her genuine dramatic
Instinct, moved to Its nnaffteled and temperate
power. There are no uneven points in her per
formance, she pever loses her perfect command
or every situation, She certainly creates a
new atmpsphcie throughout tho whole play,
reDning it from tho coarse realities of Paris In
to lie pure etherealities of the fabled Arcadia.
Clewami Leader,
Miss Coombs will appear in this sttrnctlvo

A scries pf meetings to bo continued every
evening ns long ns there tiro penitent seekers
for God's pnrdon, commenced last Sunday
evening in Ihe M. K. Church. Many no doubt
will have their r.nmes enrolled in tho Book of
Life, if the members of the church fit them
selves for the work nnd enter fully into the
spirit of it. If the success of the meetings de
pends upon the pastor, Itev. Sniyser, then ivill
the hopes of tho church be realised. He alone
can not accomplish this. His charge must
help him. LnM week, every evening was de
voted to prayer and other religious exercises
bythcY.M C. t Their services were well
attended, and will ho blessed by future evi
deuce of their good influence on our young
men. This orgmizafion is still quite young
here, but numbers many members. Nightly
the reading room entertains young and. even
middle aged men. The best periodicals and
daily newspapers grace the library, imparting
knowledge to many eager renders, whose nar
row circumstances could not give them this ad
vantage ere their library was established. The
public libraries of our country rank with the
first of our most beneficial institutions. Mil
lions through their agency are raised from the
miro of illiteracy. The organization mention
ed above has an invaluable leader in the per
son of C. II. Zehndcr, nn ardent worker for
the salvation of young men. The Literary So
ciety, week before last, discussed the question
Do the works of nature declare Ihe immor

of the affirmative the weightier of tho two but
found it contrary to the decision of the judges,

definition of soul which according to the Bible
mny not mean what wo have been taught to
believe. I do not mean to sty that the affirms,

There was u noisy clamor for venison at the
dinner table, of the St. Charles Hotel yester
day, the boarders having discovered that the
Boss" hail returned from n deer hunt on the
North Mountain. The appetites ol the board
ers in this direction, however were not gratified,
the valiant deer islayer having returned empty
handed. Overcome apparently by tho impor
tunities of his hungry boarders, he resolved to
rejoin his companion, Dr. Litlle, who is still on
tho .North Mountain, they together having ar
rived here on Monday of last week. It is re
ported that the Doctor had three shot: at a
deer and then failed lo bring down the game.
He will probably try lo make us believe that
by a mistake ho hud loaded bird shot instead
of buck ; as he tried to do under similar cir
cumstmces several years ago, but then unfor
tunately for his story one of his companions
found n charge of buck-shot In a tree that stood
between the Doctir and tho spot where the
leer had been when he fired. While Doc. nnd
Ihe "Boss" are warring against tho deflr other
of our sportsmen make the retreat .of the (ox

Saturday morning, a few miles from town
guarded several "run-ways" while the four
hounds lead by Cooper s veteran Jack, filled
the aisles of the woods with music sweet to Ihe
hunter's car. Smith it seems was stationed in
tho centre, nt a capital place nnd there encoun
tered within n half an hour two faxes, which
must have approached him within twenty
yards. Three times his gun was heard, but
the party brought back no trophies. The i
succesbful shot will not hear the last of it for
several weeks. Hunters report quails very

Tho foolhardy performance of Capt. James
Swan, "The man crocodile," at tho Thcatro
Cnmiquo in Providence, 11. I., camo near
resulting fatally tho other evening. Ho was
in a large plate-glass tank of water, with an
alligator six feet long, and, after btirring up
the reptile till it was furious, ho tore open
its jaws and placed his head between them.
Quick as a. flash they closed, and Swan's
death seemed certain. With almost tuper
human exertion, lie freed himself, however,
and sprang out of tho tank, his cheeks being
deeply gashed by tho alligator' teeth. In a
moment ho returued to Iho water, forced tho
reptile into submission, and went ou with tho
exhibition.
