The Opera House.
IScforo the fall amusement season opens
the Bloomsburg Opera Houso will have un.

largo and easy, with a nickel plated num.
bcr on each one, and will bo arranged so
that it will bo much more conven
lent to pass through the aisles.
The scats will bo made by the School
Furnishing Company. Tho Opera Houso
has been under th- management of F. D.
Dentler and J. F. Peacock for several
years, and they have always put forth
great efforts to secure tho best attractions
possible for a town of this sizo. They havo
on a number of occasions brought enter.
tainmcnts here that seldom show outside of
tho larger cities. A fine new piano was
purchased last year, and a new drop cur.
tain put up. It is the Intention to keep on
adding improvements to the hall so long as
the public shall show a proper apprecia
tion of the efforts of the managers to pro.
vldo first-class entertainments. A public
hall is a necessity in every town, and in
order that it may bo properly maintained,
It Is necessary that It should rcccivo liberal
public patronage. We aro informed that a
number of excellent companies are already
booked for the fall, and as tho attractions
and conveniences of the Opera House will
be greatly Increased, tho size of the aud.
iences should be correspondingly enlarged.

The total ecllpso ot the moon last Sunday
night took place under most favorable aus
pices for terrestrial observers. Throughout
tho eclipse, lasting altogether five and one-
halt hours, the sky was perfectly clear.
The great Interest to astronomers in the
event was whether tho moon would becomo
at any time totally lnvisiblo, as is some
times tho caso. Last Sunday night, as
stated, the moon was visible at all times.
There are only three kinds of eclipses
those of the sun, ot planetary satellites and
of tho moon. Thcro was an important
ecllpso of the sun last August, and the star
sharps cleared their glasses for action In
many a strango hamlet and remote town of
Northern Asia and Europe. There was a
total ecllpso of tho moon as recently as last
January, on tho 28th, but it was deficient
in general interest ns compared with tho
event of last Sunday night. Tho latter is
said to havo been a repetition of tho eclipso
of July 12, 1870. And yet the eclipse of
January last Is said by scientists to havo
been "one of the most beautiful eclipses on
record and especially noteworthy for tho
red, copper color that revealed tho presenco
ot the eclipsed moon in tho sky, when en
tirely immersed in tho earth's dark slrn
dow."
In most of the eclipses called total the
moon, dimmed and pale though she be, is
still visible to citizrns ot the world, her huo
varying.from a copper to a "deep, sombre
gray." Tho light of her lover, the sun, can-
not be entirely Intercepted even by tho
envious earth, tor soino ot the sun's rays
which would othcrwlso shoot ou Into
space and be lost In immensity or swallow.
cd up In tho light of other suns, aro caught
in the earth's atmosphere and refracted or
bent out ot their direct course until they
strike and illumino tho moon. If tho earth
had no atmosphere at all, the totally eclips
ed moon would bo absolutely invisible from
the earth. Thcro Is a theory that it those
parts of tho terrestrial atmosphere which
border tho earth's Illuminated half, that
sldo of her turned .towards the sun, were
cloud-laden, then the moon would bo shut
oft absolutely and be invisible.
And there is another still and far more
Interesting theory which accounts for tho
occasional complete disappearance of tho
moon when sho is tho heart ot tho earth's
shadow. It Is tho theory that tho dust ot
tho Krakatoa cataclysm is still lljlng in
spaco and over tho earth in such dcnBo
clouds as to prevent any possible refraction
of the sun's ravfl.
During tho two eclipses of tho moon In
1884, observed only In tho Eastern Ilcnii
sphere, tho moon entirely disappeared from
view, and It was expected that this would
bo the case Bunday night On tho contrary.
it was as plainly visible as during tho
ecllpso In January.
If the Krakatoa theory wcro true in 1884
it would eccm that by this time tho dust
has disappeared. It will be remembered
that In 1883 tho Island ot krakatoa, in tu
Indian Oceau, with Its 100,000 inhabitants
disappeared In a mighty cataclysm, which
appeared to uphoavo all that portion ot tho
world, Tho island absolutely disappeared
and tho numerous volcanoes that appeared
belched forth volumes ot smoke, lava and
ashes, which was dissipated through space,
and was supposed by some astronomers to
havo made the moon Invisible during tho
(wo succeeding eclipses. Ex.

Bloomsburg Bridge Company held at
Winona Hall on Monday afternoon, It was
resolved to lncreaso tho capital stock to

Tho finest gamo of ball that was ever
played at Athletic Park took place there
last Saturday afternoon, tho contesting
nines being tho Bloomsburg team and tho
Anthracites of Wllkesbarrc. Ten innings
and a half were played, when the gamo
was stopped, owing to ono of the visiting
nine being injured, not seriously. Tho
score was but one one when tho game was
called, and as It was the Anthracites who
refused to play, the umpire decided the
gamo 9 to 0 In favor of Bloomsburg.
Tho gamo was an excellent ono all
through, and both nines did finely. Hayes
and Deal tho home battery, played a first-
class game. A number ot brilliant plays

Nows was received hero on Saturday, of
tho death ot Dr. Geo. W. Lott of Eiston,
Ho was out on tho street at two o'clock,
and at five he was dead, tho causo being a
strokn of apoplexy. Ho leaves a widow,
his second wife, and four children by his
first marriage, namely, Mrs. O. P. Sloan of
Bloomsburg, Mrs. J. W. Chamberlin of
lymouth, Dr. Howard Lott of Wyoming
Territory, and Uapt. Geo. Lott of tho Regu.
lar Army. Ho was nearly eighty years old.
Tho remains wcro brought to Rupert ou
Wednesday afternoon, and taken to Orango-
vlllo where tho burial took place In the

Dr. Lott came to Bloomsburg whon quite
young man, and practiced mcdlono. Ho
then removed to Orangovllio and remained
there until his removal to Easton In 1804.

A Good llnrvcHt.
Tho farmers In tho neighborhood ot
Stillwater have just housed ono of tho
finest crops of wheat that has been raised
this part of tho volley for many years.
It is not only abundant In straw, but the
heads aro largo and well filled, and all
secured In good condition. It was a grand
sight to see It from au eminence, ns It stood
over the fields in shocks, and no man, who
believes In God and has a heart capable of
pprcclatlng his goodness could look upon
this cvldcnco of his bounty and not feel
grateful. Among tbo largest products
noticeable is that of tho StackhoL-so Bros,
who run tho farms of Daniel Mcllcnry.
They had thirty-two acres of wheat In ono
field, from which they cut ten thousand
10,000) sheaves. They cut It with a "self
binder" aud three men and two boys put
It In shock In two days and a half. Tnis
is certainly progress on tho farm, when
we think of how many days It would havo
taken to cut it with cradles and bind It the
old way. J.- Sutton.

Eulson has invented a new dinner clock
which talks. Instead of striking the hour
It speaks It. At dinner time a voice issues
from tho clock and says "Dinner time,"
lso "1 o'clock," ''2 o'clock," etc, as the
case may be. Another dcvlco which he is
perfecting in connection with tho clock Is
that ot a female faco which ho purposes to
set In the face of the clock. The lips of
this figure will move at tho hour, the head
will bow and the fictitious lady will say:
Good evening, ladles and gentlemen, it Is
bedtime."
The tramps In New York have hit upon
new scheme to procure cheap lodgings
during tbo hot weather. It is not safe for
them to sleep In tho squares on account ot
the police, so they have struck a system of
working the elevated roads for five-cent
lodgings. Thc-nickcl ndra'n'JVc tramp to
tne station piaiiorm ana n is a very siupiu
ono who can't find snoozing room enough
to last till daylight somewhere along tho
road. There are dark corners about every
platform where the lodger can usually ktay
stretched out tor an hour or so before tho
stftlon hands discover him. Then all ho
has to do Is to board tho next train and get
off nt the next station for another nap.
An important invention in railway prac
tice is tho method inventci by a Baltimore
electrician for welding steel rails by elec
tricity, which will enable track layers to
lay a continuous track. The end rails aro
welded together through the application of
transformed electric current, and are
afterward tempered. Tho Inventor pro
poses to thus make continuous rails a quar
ter ot a mllo in length, having expansion
joints only at Intervals ot that distance,
the rails bciug fastened at tho centre do as
to expand in both directions. Making tho
joint only takes half a minute.
Superstitious people feel certain that 1888
will bo famous for the Inauguration of
