Dr. Cattell hns resigned as President of

felt ho could no longer do justice to the

The baccalaureate sermon was preached
on Sabbath evening in tho normal chapel
to a large and appreciative audience, by
llev. U. F. Alleman, of the Evangelical
Lutheran church of Sliippenshurg. The
address was replete with sound doctrine
and wholesome advice to the class, and
was a masterly effort, but only in keeping
with the reverend gentleman's ability as
an orator.

B. O. Dun it Co., mercantile agency, of
Willlutnsport, publish the following re
port of crops In tills county. So fur as we
can learn It Is accurate.
"The crops, save corn, will prove as
good, if not better, thuu raised In this
couuty for the past five years. Wheat,
rye and grass look particularly well, nnd
unless something unforsceu occurs, there
will be much more than tho average yield
produced. Corn Is a little backward, but
within the past few days put on a more
healthy appearance, and with favorable
weather will produce an average yield.
Potatoes are looking well, and tho general
outlook for farmers is indeed fluttering.
Upon the whole we hnvu 110 reason to com-
plain although our merchants are not
doing the amount of business usually
done at this season of the year. Tlio
Spring trade was very dull but become
somewhat better recently."

which ho claims to be uu cxcclhmt work

Toy iMMolrt.
The season Is nigh nt hand fur the an.
mini appearance of (he small boy with the
smnll toy pistol Mint carries 11 cnrlrldce.
It Is a season of nnxlcty for nil those who
Inke nn Interest In the small boy, since
they have learned to their sorrow that
unless the toy pistol bo handled with un-
usual care It becomes 11 dangerous weapon,
Ami since the average small boy Is not n
careful creature, Mie toy pistol, as the list I
ot casualltles which newspapers are nlleil
upon to print after ench recurring PomMi
of July demonstrates, is justly to here-
garded as one of his worst enemies. The
small boy, like his fell w creatures Of ti
larger growth, cannot readily bo persuaded
to forsaku his foolishness and the fact that
the toy which gives him so much pleasure
may give htm a wound whoso end Is lock
jaw, perhaps Impaits toll Mint strange
fiisclimtiou known as the attraction of rep
illation. 'II10 Leglslatille has enacted a law for
bidding tlio sulo of toy pistols, nnd the
Leglslnturo Is n good friend to the smull
hoy, although he mny not be inclined to
think so just now. He wilt therefore
renlira that he Is prohibited from using a
toy pistol this Fourth of July a day
which he usually begins to celebrate
about the middle of June. But of course
the small boy has no Intention of becom
ing n .law-breaker", lie Is too good a fel
low tor that. He may have his own
opinion of the legislators who combined
together to pass a measure which Inter
feres with ids amusement, but he can be
counted upon to render 11 more or less
cheerful obedience to its mandates. And
when the Fourth Is over and gone he will
experience the satlsfuctloii which attends
the reflection flint but for the prohibition
lie might be down with the lock-jaw, or
wanting a linger or other useful member.
Just another word to the small boy. Let
him keep hts eye upon the reckless mer
chants who have toy pistols for sale and
see to it they also comply with the law or
suiter the consequence of their Inexcusa
ble disregard of human life. lit.
Anniversary of tile OraiiKuvllle
Acaclcmy
The exercises began with an exhibition
by the pupils on Thursday night of lust
week. These exhibitions were of the usu
al character nnd excellence of such per-
formances. Tho students did credit to
themselves considering the shortness of
the time of preparation. Noticeable among
other things were the orations of J. J. My.
ers of Ncscopeck nnd J. J. II, Hamilton
of Koseburg, Perry Co. These young
men are making their murk here and will
do credit to somo college one of these days.
By tho way, Mr. Hamilton came near be
ing a murk for the lightning on .Monday
night, it strlkini' a tree not ten feet from
the open window where ho was studying ;
he was considerably stunned.
On Friduy P. M. a sociable und re-union
of the students nnd friends of the Acade
my was held iu the grove, ltefrcshincnts
consisting of ice cream, cuke &c, were
bountifully served by the young ladies of
the school. It was 11 very enjoyable time
But more enjoyable still was the feast of
reason to which we were treated oil Fri
day evening, in the oration of Prof. W. H.
Dill, Principal of the Freeburg Pa. Acade
my . Ills subject was "Oratory," and bis
speech u Ine specimen of bis subject. Hu
defined oratory llist negatively. It was
not delivery. We rend a speich in tho
newspapers and characterize it as eloquent
or dull. Nor does oratory consist In ges
ture, nor Iu pompous nnd high soiindin
words. True eloquence consisted in tbu
man, the subject ami the occasion. It
must lie (1) natural. He denonuced the
urtilV lal nnd unnatural styles as unworthy
nf the numo of oratory. Eloquence must
be (2) earnest. Those who sway multi
tudes at will must have their lieitrts iu their
speeches. It, must also (3) bu based on
sound argument. The speech which
proves nothing cannot hold its place with
tlie argumentative.
Maj. Dill took the hearts of our people
by his own eloquence nnd when It was mi
noiinced Mint he will lecture for the Y. M,
C. A. of Onuigeville on Friday eve, July

Miissns. Eonons: Your many readers
would like to hear some of the details of a
Hood mid its destructions. I will give a
smnll account of one. I left home in Sug-
nrlouf Township Col. Co. on Sunday tl
17th of June nnd crossed the mountains by
way of Stevensvllle to Forksville thence to
Kings creek. We saw good crops all tho
way there. It commenced to get showery
soon after we arrived, and in tbu night
there was a very bard rain so the creek
raised cousidcrublc, and it ruined some nil
day the 18th but not hurd until evening
when it thundered nnd lightened almost
steudily till ubout I) o'clock. The water
poured down for an hour until it was
nearly a foot deep on tho ground and In
less than one hull hour tho creek wus so
high Mint it tore one lurge new saw mill to
pieces, broke the timbers, took part away
and shoved tho rest lu n heap and piled
suwlogs on und under it und washed tlie
foundation nil away. About J mile below
at John W. Hess' where we stayed, iu ten
minutes after it quit raining the water
broke over the bank above the house and
washed down between tbu house and the
road, so by taking the children from tho
beds and running we got across the bridge
and over a dry gutter not more than live
minutes 'before tlio rush of water und drift
come nnd tore up the bridge, and a few
minutes after we got to n house, on the
bank the water, drift nnd saw logs come
rushing down and took with it my buck
bcrd wagon, Hess' vngon,s!cdB and spring-
bouse nil against a shed used for thresh
floor with 2 fanning mills iu It, now ones,
all away together and 2 tine spring calves
carrying nil iiwny none of which
were found when wo left on tlie
20th. Other damage was dono to his
crops and tlie other part of tlio stable where
my horso was is partly undermined ami
tlio cieek now runs where the spriughouse
and shed was. Elk creek got so high it
broke 11 boom Iu John Rogers' mill dam
near the mouth and left out almost a half
million feet of logs. On Kings creek the
loss of logs wus groat and crops spoiled
and roads made impassible for some time,
und at Mill view 1 miles N. E. from
Forksville n vcrv largo mill pond broke and
made u new channel through the farm,
On Miu night of the 10th the water tell so
wo got tho horso ncross the creek to u safer
stublo and (5 o'clock on tlio morning of tlio
20tli wo bid farewell to daughter, son-ln
law linn children, una f.ikiamls, to tu tu our
journey across the mountain, myself und
two of my boys with ono little horso nnd
no wagon. Well we took turns riding und
rcuciicii noiuo ntiotit 7 o'clock in the even
ing, sorefooted and tired, having traveled
near thirty-four miles and glad our lives
and tho horse wus spared us, We hud
hard rains here but no serious damage has

Plllt..VllEl.lllllA, Jtmu lf, 1833,
Mv Dbaii Deckik i
I promised to tell you all about our
shopping trip to town, just us soon as wu
had gone tlie rounds of tho stores. Yon
said you'd expect to hear from mo in
about four days, if I didn't melt in the hot
streets, or us poor dear grandma said, get
run over by the wagons In crossing them.
Wo only started out this morning, and
have been In every kind of store you can
think of, nnd wu aren't incited or run over
cithers and tell grandma we hiwen't cross,
ed u street or seen one of thosu "horrid
red wagons" she was afraid of ! 'Causu
why ? No, you dear old girl, the stores
aren't alt on ono side of the sheet either,
but lu one big building called the Grand
Depot. The main floor Is llku tho Centen.
nlttt. People us busy us bees, and every.
body good-natured. Mother scut father
tout to get himself a new bat, buMilcss you,
he rami' back dliectly, with not only n
now tile, but new gear from head to foot,
und he hadn't left the building I He said
it was so humly.llkc, that, after getting
new head covering, lie thought of the
Irishman who wanted to build ids house
from the top, and hold up one brick while
he put the next under it I After shingling
the roof, he thought he meded recovering
nil the way down, und wu all said we
hadn't really known father was such a tine
looking man !
Mother started to buy some pieces of
white goods, but when we looked at the
made-up underwear to see about trimming,
she declared It was cheaper und handler to
buy the garments than tho cloth ; and
when you see them all tucked und em
broidered, you'll say so too. Father had
allowed Knlle und mu one hundred dol
lars for black silk dresses. We selected
handsome ones, you may be sure, but we
saved enough on the price to buy Sunday
gowns for poor Widow Dobbins nnd her
three little girls j nice wasn't? Your
lavender silk wo matched perfectly, ex
cept in one thing. Instead of IJ2.75 we
gave just ijl 00, nnd you'd say It might
have' been cut oft the sumo piece. We
saw a lady bring back two dress patterns,
and cooly say she'd changed her mind nnd
wanted her money back ! Mother laid
down Mie goods she was lingering, and
wanted to see what they would say 1 for,
mind -you, each dress was cut off. Do
you believe, they simply measured the
goods, and gave lirr a cash check ns
though they just did this thing for fun?
Wo hadn't gone round very long among
the stores, before father and cousin Tom
were getting loaded up (or down, which
ever way you put it), und the polite cleiks
kept asking if we "wouldn't have 11 trims,
fer." But mother was all the while afraid
the things might be transferred away from
her; nnd every bundle she kept salug
111 lie the lust, us shu would send them
to the hotel, and we would bo through in
Mils building and going out to hunt up
other stores. But every kind of store we
asked for they pointed right out under the
same big roof, and father und Tom de
clared they'd "transfer" If she didn't lake
one. So they gave ns -111, which meant
that all we bought in any store was sent to
that number of store-room ; and when we
were nil through, they'd have them rcadv
for us, with the bill, anil when we saw
them nil right and together we'd pay for
them. This satisfied mother.
I wanted you, my r elite old chum, to
help me select the embroidery nnd trim
mlng for flint India Swiss. I think It will
trail four yards if it's a linger. And the
lace veil to niatcli is just lovely, nnd you'll
say so. Mother said the saving 011 Ibis
finery alone will pay for our trip.
In what tliey call the basement, there is
the biggest lot of everything wanted in 11
house except what you wear Mint I ever
saw. Just as many avenues and streets
and stores here us up stairs. A light,
busy-looking place It is. For a while I
didn't know where the puffs of wind cainu
from, nnd fancied some young fellows
were blowing my ribbons about when I
passed them, but it was the cool air from
the pipes that kept the place so delight
ful. At noon we even took our dinner in n
eslaiirunt kept for the visitors, nnd had n
nice rest iu the parlors, with books, pn-
pers, ami writing mateui'ls; una uu or
chestra (or orchestreon they call it) playing
in the next room.
lo-morrow morning we are going to
spend in the museum up-stairs. Tom
found it out prowling round at lunch
time. Mother says Mils is tho easiest shop-
ping trip she's made in forty years nt
least a week's work done lu a day. Dou't
forget, Beckle,thut whnt I've told you ubout
bailie's beau, I give you just exnetly ns it
was given me iu strict confidence. Come
undsee me when we get back ; I'll have
lots nnd lots to tell vou. We've saved so
miicii time shopping that lather says wo
may ns well put in two or three days'
slght-seelug if wo want to ; but he don't
think we'll find 'any house as roomy and
pleasant as the Grand Depot. Lovo to
everybody.
Alleellonately,
Sol-IIIK.

patterns, just too sweet for anything !

P. S. No. 2. You dear old girl, I didn't
finish telling you what tlio India Swiss aud
lace veil were for so I didn't, but you
guessed it, of course. Charlie has pro -
not provoked me evactlv, hut Ihe other
thing you know. Tom teases me, and
calls it "the pro and ron .'" Well, I had to
let poor, dear Charlie have his own way,
and it was handy to come to town now ;
and we've got everything for housekeeping
right hero, from pallor stilts to tin cups
mid you'll wish me joy l know.
