Trunks and valises, a fine assortment at Dentler's. Oak Grove Parle. For a long time Bloomsburg was without a suitable place for picnics. There was no grove which was accessible that combined tho requirements necessary to make it a desirable resort, and thoso who wished to spend a day In tho woods wero obliged to seek a shady nook along the creek or to go upon private property with the possl blllty of being ordered off at any moment, Two years ago a corporation was formed, by twenty-five of tho eutcrpriiing citizens of this town, for the purposo of securing to the people of Bloomsburg and vicinity a pleasant resort. Tho grore out Fifth street was leased for a term of years, and was named Oak Grovo Park. The grounds were drained and cleaned up, a fountain was placed In tho centro of the grove, water pipes were laid from town, numerous buildings were erected, embracing a large dancing pavilion, eating stands, water closets, retiring rooms for women with babies, and many other conveniences Swings were purchased of a kind that four children may swing In them at onco with out danger, and numerous other means of amusement and sources of attraction wero secured. During the past two seasons a great many excursion parlies have spent tho day at Oak Grove, coming by rail, tbo Association having an arrangement with tho D. L. & W. R. R. Co. by which very favorablo terms can bo secured. The bo who havo thus enjoyed the Grovo havo spoken highly of Its attractions, and thous ands of strangers have visited Bloomsburg who otherwise would ncycr have seen our beautiful town. The Association was not organized with the expectation of making any money out of the scheme. It was formed for two pur poses, one being to secure a pleasant resort for tho people of Bloomsburg for public or private parties or picnics, and the other be Ine to establish an attraction that would drar strangers here, and thus advertise tho town, and bring money to us from ex cursionists. Hundreds of dollars of im provements havo been put upon tho grounds by the stockholders. A very sue. cessful season will do no more than pay rent, repairs and running expenses. Tho Oak Grovo Is therefore something that dc. serves tho patronage and encouragement of our townsfolk. Family picnics, Sunday school picnics and general gatherings should be held there, If the public desires tho continuance of the Grove. The stock, holders will do (heir full share, but they caunot carry tho entire burden without as. slstanco and encouragerucnt. Oak Grovo Park Is a beautiful spot and tho only easily accessible place of tho kind near Blooms burg. Whether It shall bo a permanent thing, or end with tho present lease de pends largely upon tho support It receives during the coming seasons. For terms for use of Park apply to W. It. Tubbs or C. W. Miller. Men's lino shoes In kangaroo or calf hand or machine sewed at Dentler's. That Tired Pcelluir, Afflicts nearly every ono In tbo spring.

We take the following particulars from the Sunbury Awof May 11th ; Tho action was brought to recover dam ages from the defcudant by reason of his being put off a train on tho Alexandria and Fredericksburg Railroad at Woodbrldge, Va., on tho morning of the 24th day of May, 1863. On the morning of tho 31st day of May, 1883, the plaintiff, who was a resident of Bloomsburg, Columbia county, purchas ed a ticket at that place over tho Delaware, Lackawanna and Bloomsburg Railroad for HarrUburg. Ho boarded the train and on his way to Sunbury was Informed by Mr. Trench, a friend, that there was an excur- slon going to Fredericksburg, Va., and was invited by him to go along. Expressing willingness to do so, Mr. Trench presented him with an order for an excursion ticket, the order having been Issued to tho regi mental association of the 131st regiment, P. V , tho ticket to bo purchased at Sun bury. On his arrival at Sunbury ho pre sented tho order at tho ticket office with 8.04, tho price of tho ticket. On tho main part of tho ticket there was printed, among other things, that it entitled the holder to ono first-class paBiaue to Fredericksburg Va., and return, and that In selling tho ticket for passage over other roads the Pennsylvania Railroad Company only act ed as agents for them and assumed no re sponsibility beyond Its own line. There wero coupons attached to tho ticket desig nating tho points between which tho hold er of tho ticket could travel, but no coupon attached to tho ticket namlug that portion of tho trip from Fredericksburg to Haiti more on tho return trip. Captain Orwlg, who represented tho organization which was lustrumcntal in getting up the excur sion, bad mado special arrangements with a steamboat company to bring tho excur sloulsts from Frcdtilcksburg to Baltimore by boat at tho rate of $1.60 for each ex- curslonlst In addition to tho $9.04 paid for the railroad ticket. Mr, Robblns started on his homeward journey alone from Fred eilcktburg on the morning of the 24th of May, It liavlngbecn Intimated to him tho evening beforo that the excursionists In tended to take tho boat. He attempted to use the ticket purchased at Sunhury In which there was a gap, so far as tbo coupons wero concerned, from Fredericks burg to Baltimore, although tho main part of ticket stated that It entitled tho holder to ono first-class passago to Frcdcrlcksbi rg, Va., and return. After having rode somo distance tho conductor camo to htm and tho ticket was presented, when he was In formed by tbo conductor that It was not a good ticket for his train, but ho would carry him to tho next conductor, who would tako charge of tho train at Quanttco. At this station another conductor took cbargo of tho train and ho also Informed tho plaintiff that It was not a good ticket for his train, and ho would bavo to get oft or pay his fare. After somo parleying the conductor concluded to carry him as far as Woodbrldge, the first stop that was to bo made, and that thcro tho plaintiff would havo to get off or pay his faro. Tho plain tiff refused to pay his fare, and, as Is alleg ed, ho was ejected from tho car at this station at about half-past 0 o'clock, in tho morning, a placo whore he contends there was no accommodation by which bo could procuro food, or that ho was ablo to get away from tho placo until about 4 o'clock In tho afternoon. Witnesses were called on tho part of tho defendant to prove that thcro were accommodations at Woodbrldge sufficient to accommodate a traveler, a boardlng-houso and restaurant Loin? lo cated not far from tho railroad station. Tho defendant further contended that this ticket was prepared at tho solicitation of Captain Orwlg especially for the benefit of tho surylvtng soldiers of tho 131st Regl mental Association, and that It was not In tended to Include other than members of that association. They also presented evidence to show that they received no portion of proceeds arising from the salo of tho ticket purchased by tho plaintiff, but that tbo money was appropriated through their auditor to railroad companies other than the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. They also showed that they had nothing to do in making special arrangements with tho steamboat company and for that rcasou had made no provision by tho issuclng of the special ticket for tho excursionists to comeback from Fredericksburg to Balti more by rail.
