Tlie Canal a Yltliiif of Hie Int. IT WILL HE AlUNDONEl) A3 SOON AS THIS BEABON ENDS. The Hsrrisburg Pufriof has the following to say regarding the State canal system : The old Pennsylvania canal, which was for years tho channel of commerce and travel from one end of the State to the other, is about to be permanently abandon ed. For several years past tho operation of the canal has been attended with regu lar losses, and now, inasmuch as it is own ed by tho Pennsylvania llailroad, which carries all the tonagc formerly transported on the canal, tho determination has been reached to allow tho canal property to go to ruin. Nothing it seems can be done to save it. "From 1830, the year In which tho canal was first put in operation, until 1850, when tho Pennsylvania Railroad comploted Its lino from Philadelphia to Pittsburg, the canal was tho only means of transportation for passengers and freight across the coun try, By the aid ot a portage road and sec. tion boats, the-invention ot John Dougher ty, the difficulties of passing over the Alle gheny mountains from Hollidaysburg to Johnstown was easily surmounted, and a complete lino ot traffic was established. From 1850 until now tho canal was still maintained through a poition ot its route for carrying coal, stono and lumber. "From Huntingdon westward to Peters burg the canal was totally destroyed by the overwhelming Hood ot last June, and the channel is now a ruinous mass of do- brls and rocks in many places leveled up even with tho banks on cither side. The Pennsylvania Railroad is surveying certain sections of it with a view of trans. ferrlng tho railroad tracks from the present roadbed to the canal site In order to avoid some of tho Bharp curves, Tho new route of tho railroad will bo pushed forward at once. "Last summer tho canal on tho Juniata, between Huntington and Newton Hamil ton, twenty miles below, was abandoned, and of tho remaining seventy miles cast- ward to Harrisburg only ten wcro restored this summer. The flood in Juno demolish ed Bcveral expensive aqueducts, and ac cordingly last week tho managers of tho Pennsylvania Railroad decided that tho work of repairing tho channel could not profitably bo resumed west ot Ilopo Ferry or north ot Muncy Damon the Suiquchana Branch. The restored section, from the Busquehanni to tho Ilopo Ferry, In the Hue of which exists somo valuablo ore beds, was Intended to transport this freight, but tho costs It was found would bo great er than tho receipts could be. The expen ditures last year exceeded tho receipts, by $17,108, while tho tonnage Is regularly de creasing." Cut llatc-H to tliv Went.

IIIJNTON I'AXK. The fourth exhibition ot the Benton Ag ricultural Boclety was held last week. The remarkably wet soason In this section had so dlscouragod tto farmers that they made ycry llttlo preparation for tho county fairs. This was especially notlccablo in tho fruit and vegetable department. There wcro no potatoes on exhibition, and among the fruits tboso who should rccctvo especial mention aro Mr. Jno. ICelfcr who had a fine assortment of apples, and Mr. F. M. Lutz, with a good variety of qutnecs. Even the cereals wero neglected. The department of canned fruits and flno needle work were well filled and all of choice exhibits. Tho ladles did nobly in arranging their articles, and making such a flno display. Tho ladies should bo con gratulated upon their efforts. They have felt the seed of united efforts in making a grand success ot theso exhibitions and stimulating their children to greater work, Keller Btob., tho stove men of Benton, deserve especial mentton. They had nine, teen different kinds of stoves on exhibition, Competent judgis pronounced their dis. play tho finest seen at any of tho fairs this season. They had tho Opollo and Othello Rangcb; tho .Lighthouse, Peerless, Active Beaver and Warrior Cook stoyc. Eight different styles of flno square heaters Church, store and oftlco stoves.

Applcman Bros., of Benton, had on ex hibition their celebrated Farm Wagon and a few specimens of wood bending. They have an aparatus made for bending wood that enables them to turn out work at short notice. Their farm wagons speak for themselves. When they say that their trade is so great that they can not Mil ord ers, It Is sufficient guarantee ot the worth of this wagon. A. A. Hoff, of ttiflllnburg, had a num ber of top buggies on exhibition. G. A. Carey, of Cambra, had a fine par- or suit, beautifully trimmed, and of neat design, and a sldo board, in natural oak that would grace tho dining room ot any one. Ira 11. McHenry of Bonton, had a parlor and bedroom suit. J. Saltzcr of Bloomsburg was present with his sewing machines and musical Instruments. He was assisted by Thos. Methcrell, and his booth was crowded with people listening to the beautiful music. Ho was giving es pecial attention to tho merits of tho "White" Sewing Machine. A lady was sent on from tho factory who asslstod in showing the various styles of work dono on this machine. Ono of the especial attachments of this machine is an edgo braider by means of which a raised braid la made ; asldo from this is tho arisene, tinsel, etch ing, floral and landscape, outline, fllo phloss and silk embroidery. J. M Kline, of Benton, represented tho Wheeler & Wilson Bowing machine and the A. 13. Chase Organ. Their exhibits of arlserc, etching and outlino work were beautiful. In the department of poultry, geese seemed to be the favorite, there were more geese than all other poultry combined. In horsc3 and cattle there were few ex hibits.

Early on last Baturday morning there passed away, from earth ono ot tho most useful and influential citizens of Espy In the death of Hermln G. Creveling. He was born in Bcott lownBhip, May 10, 1826, and was one ot tho six children of Andrew and Rebecca Creveling. His brothers nnd sisters all preceded him to the Spirit world. Ilermin attained tho age ot 63 years, 4 months and sixteen dys. His earlier llfo was spent upon the farm. Afterwards he becamo a resident of Espy where for more than a score of years in succession ho served as Justice of tho Peace, In which olllco ho won many friends and was highly esteemed for his legal attainments and ability to give safe counsel where needed. As an honest and competent counsellor, as well aa a citizen, useful In other res pects, his departuie will bo sorely felt. But we love to cherish tho thought that our loss will be bis gain.

A FOND OF $30,000 niLTUinUTEn SOME FACTS I1E1.AT1NO TO TItS OnOEIl niNEFlTS TO BE DERIVED FIIOM JOIN1NO TUB COUNCILS. From tho Wllllamsport Sun and Manner wo clip tho following Interesting article, which will prove of Interest to a number In this city who aro members of tho order i "When it was learned that Wllllamsport, Lock Haven and Jonhstown had suffered bo much from tho Juno Hood a voluntary call was niado by tho Supremo Council of tho Royal Arcanum to oach ot tho 1,183 Councils, except thoso that had been un fortunate, to glvo an opportunity to the 04,131 members ot this secret order to con. trlbuto to a fund to bo known as tho Johns town Relict Fund, with tho expectation that $10,000 might bo raised to assist theso members who, it Bcemcd, has lost every thing. Tho call was responded to most heartily and nearly $30,000 was raised to help those who needed It. This was the only way aid could be secured for this purpose, for the Supremo Council had no right to take it from any regular fund In Its possession. It was soon gathered and then came its division. Alter thcro had been a thorough examination as to tho needs and losses of the different members of unfortunate Coun cils, It was agreed todlvido $23,000 among tho members or their relatives nt Johns town In nmounts ranging from $50 to $1,000 each. There were six deaths in tho Johns town Council and their families received $3,000 each, besides their proportion of tho gift of $23,000. There was no real claim on these 1,183 different Councils to nssist tho few unfor tunate ones. They had never promised or agreed to do so, but It was merely acting In accordance with tho beautiful motto of tho order. "Virtue, Mercy and Charity," that it was freely given by tho many mem hers and accepted by those who had lost It was with the samo motives that $1,000 was distributed In Wllllamsport, Lock Haven and Lewlsburg. Any organization that wilt do such coble work is worthy of further investigation. This order consists of nono but good men, who must bo healthy physlclally and irreproachablo morally j of men who stand ready to carry out and guard its appropri ate motto of "Virtue, Mercy and Charity." As a social order, nono sutpass It. Every thing allowed by It cannot fall to make man more noble and the world much bet ter. Besides its important social features it has connected with it a mutual insurance plan that has no equal for cheapness com bined with surety. Should a young man of twenty-one join tho Royal Arcanum, It would cost him less than $15 a year to keep up a llfo policy for $3,000, while he would also havo tho bene fits of a fine social order. Tho Royal Ar canum has already paiu out in ueaiu claims over $12,000,000. Think for one moment the good work that this mot ey has dono, coming as It does where tho son or husband can no moro provldo for those dependent upon him. How many tearfl havo been dried and hearts been llgbtcr.ed at a time when empty words of consola tion alono would not secure the needed aid ! To bo fully assured that $3,000 will be paid to a member's wifo or mother at his death Is worth many times what it costs to tho man who has a tender consci ence, sympathetic heart, or much real lovo for his family's future welfare All such men should learn more about tho beau'lful feature of tho Royal Arcanum.

Children's Dresses and Coats. By far the fullest aad best gath ering of them we've ever shown. One season teaches another further and further ahead every time. Take girls of 14 or 16 years. You know how the common way has been to give them Dresses that were weak copies orthe garments made for older people. It has made you shy of buying ready-made things lor them. We ve changed all that. The goods, the shapes, the trimmings are exactly what young ladies ot good taste would choose. Modest stuffs, simply made, neat, handsome ; girlish, but neither childish nor womanish. Take little boys the chir rupy fellows of 3, 4 or 5 years, Either a girl's Coat or a big boy s t-oat, with some ot the years squeezed out of it, is what they mostly get. Have'nt vou wished for something else? Something suited to bright little tots, made and modelled ex pressly for them ? Here's a special Coat for wee-bit men ; plaited, with belt and cape, and made of thick, warm, soft cloths that arc not heavy, Big plaids and little. Coats you'll joy to see your boy in. That's the test. Men's and Young Men's, Boys and Small Boys, are the classification into which Cloth ing falls now-a-days. It marks progress. Small Boys' Suits have short trousers Knicker bockers and Boys', long trou sers. Young Men s suits are the smaller sizes of Men's. These sub-divisions give better chance for proper distinctions. The Young Men.s Clothing is of the gayer style, and the Small Boys' more fanciful. The clothier is freer to produce, the buyer has larger choice. lhe special thought of the day runs to Light Overcoats. Graudson and Grandfather, and the generation between, are pro vided for. Prices $8.50 to $32. 50. The youngster can have an Overcoat with Prince Albert front and strapped seams, the oldster can have one plain as a pike staff.
