Tho editor of the Dushoro Rtciew has
been oyer tho new Lehigh Valley branch
u Sullivan county which Is being built to
connect with the Harvey's Lake R. R.,
aud thus make a through route to William-
spert, and here is what he says about It :
'Leaving Lopez tho locomotive steamed
up the steep grado at a high rate of speed
and In almost no timo at all left Trexler,
Turrell & Co's mill and Ktpp's mill, with
their thousands of saw logs behind. With
labored groans but undtmlnlshablo speed
the train climbs tho steep incline, farther
and farther toward tho summit of tho old
North Mountain, and every revolution of
the wheels taking us deepor Into tho larg
est forest in Pennsylvania. Hero is timbor
seemingly inexhaustible quantities.
Hemlock, spruce, beech, birch and maple
trees of centuries growth and enormous
girth, tower heavenward and crowd each
other until tho sun's rays aro almost entire
ly excluded and tho forest Is impassable.
It seems almost a pity that theso Immense
solitudes should bo Invaded by railroads
and telegraphs, bringing In their train hun
dreds of vandals who will cut and Blush
and how until tho last stick has been cut
into lumber and dragged off by the scream
ing Iron horse. But it will take years to
accomplish this, no mailer how thick tho
mills aro set, so enormous is tho quantity
of lumber standing In this tract. A nd be.
foro that is dono tho burled tret virus of
coal and iron will' bo wrenched from the
earth and coal gondolas and dumps will
quickly follow tho almost endless stream
of lUt lumber cars which will pas out of
this region for the next fiftccen years.
Still climbing wo cross the Sullivan county
line, cross Mchoopany creek on a splendid
ron bridge and about threo miles beyond
tho labored pulling of tho locomotive sud
denly ceased and wu are running down
hill. Wo havo passed tho summit, the
highest point In Pennsylvania reached by
a locomotive, over 2200 feet aboro tido
water, and the tiny rivulet at tho sldo of
the track is tho head waters of Bon man's
creek. At last tho whlstlo gives a series
of shrill shrieks and.thu train comes to a
standstill eighteen miles from Lopez, in
Luzerno county, and about nlno miles
from tho opposite terminus of tho Harvey's
Lako branch of tbo Valley lino."

Tho Btato Board of Health gives tho fol.
lowing prccautjon against cholera morbus,
summer diarrhoea and dysentery, all of
which diseases occur principally during tho
summer and autumni "Cholera morbus la
caused by Improper food and sudden chill
Ing of tho body after oxposuro to great
ucat. Certain suhstancos will produco It
1 certain persons, such for Instanco as
veal, raw milk taken with fish, or shell
fish, and all dishes cooked with milk, such
as nco pudding, cream puffs and even Ico
cream, uhenktvt too long. Unrlpo and over
rlpo fruit, especially If taken with largo
draughts of water, will also causo It. But
sound, rlpo fruit Is a natural food In hot
weather, and wholesome. Avoid becom
ing chilled during sleep. In a climate as
changcablo as ours, o light blanket should
always bo at hand, to be drawn. up In case
It suddenly becomes cold duilng tho night.
Persistent summer dlarrhiea Is usually
caused by malaria, so or air, or Impuro
water. Tho conditions llablo to contamlnalo
air and water should bo carefully sought out
and remedied as Is Indicated In speaklne
of Asiatic cholera. The water can bo ren
dered safe by boiling . As dysentery Is
often epidemic, it Is wlso to consider every

others, and to disinfect tho discharges with

occasional shower, Thero were present
about four hundred people, representing
Lycoming, Union, Northumberland, Lu

ties, besides soveral from other states. Tho
representation from Columbia County, was
not as largo as It should have been. ThlB
Is the second ro-union, nnd It is now a fix
ed fact that this re-union will occur during
tho month of August each year. Tho fol

New Hcliool IloukH fur Old Ouch.
At tho last meeting of tho Bchool Board,
tho subject of a change of readers, spellers
and copy-books was discussed. Com
plaints were made by scholars that the
present books wcro bccomloj tedious to
them. Through the efforts of M. J. Phil
Hps, representing tho American Book Com
pany, tho hoard adopted Swlnton's works,
and Sponccrian copy-books, upon an oven
exchange of an old one for a new one.
Tho patronB can readily see the advantage
of such a change, especially when tho new
book has the same retail price as tho old
one. Also those having tho Barnes reader
of the first grade may exchange for a new
ono of tho noxt grado by paying only tho
difference of price between the two grades.
It it seldom a school district has puch an
opportunity to get now books for old ones.
Several book agents wcro hero and entered
Into a contest to supply the district, this
brought on tho cutting rates. Another
advantago of tho change is that the samo
reader is used in our Normal School,
Thoso completing tho common school
course can enter tho N'irmal School with
out buying all new text books.
Tlie Concert.
When tho curtain rose on tho Opera
House stago last Friday night, over three
hundred peoplo were seated before it. It
was ono of the moat select audiences ever
in tho halt. About 350 tickets were sold,
and tho net proceeds were $140. Miss
Ella A. Fox cm well feel assured of
her personal popularity, and that the peo
ple of Bloomsburg aro interested in her suc
cess, and that her singing is highly appre
ciated, for tho lain was pouring down
when tho coocert began, notwithstanding
which nearly everybody who had ticacts
were on hand, Tho playing of tho orches
tra elicited words of praise on all sides.
Considering tho short timo that they havo
practiced together, their perform inco is
remarkable. They played "Silver Bell,"
and "Tho Brigands," and for encores they
gave "First Kiss" waltz, and a galop. The
femalo quartetto consisting of Mrs. O3.
bourn, Misses Fox, Miller and Beth Run.
yan, sang two numbers, "Holloa" and
"Annio Laurie," and were obliged to re
peat them both. "Annio Laurlo" jvas
beautifully rendered without accompani-
mcut, and fairly took tho bouso by storm.
Mrs. Grant Herring recited "Two sides of
a story" in a most pleasing manner, and
Miss Ella Fox sang a contralto solo, "Tho
boquet from admiring friends. Bhe was
encored and sang a pretty ballad. Her
voice has improved wonderfully under
Mrs. Oibourn's tuition. It is strong and
sweet and clear, and she never sang hotter.
Miss Annio R. May, of Philadelphia, who
is visiting friends here, played two num
bers on tho zither. Sho It only a littlo girl
just in her teens, but sho performed on
this difficult instrument with tho skill of a
professional. It took well with the audi
ence, and she was encored both times. Mr,
William Montaguo Permit, of Philado!-
phla,who was in town on a summer outing,
sang a barltono solo, accompanied by tho
female quartette; ho also sang a solo, "An
chored.'' His volco is a pleasant ono, and
ho received well merited applause. Mrs.
O3bourn sang tho flower song from Faust,
and her magnlflclent voico was at Its best.
Iler range is wonderful, running almost
from bass to high soprano, and all her
tones aro clear and full. Bhe has sung In
tho Metropolitan Opera House, New York,
under tho leadership of Walter Damroscb
and sho expects to go to London noxt year
to still further cultivate her voice. Bho
was retailed, of course, and presented
with a boquet. Miss Fox and Mr. Paul E.
Wirt sang a duct so well that they wcro
obliged to repeat It. Miss Annio Miller
was warmly welcomed, and sang ''In
Sweet Bcptember." This was beautifully
rendered, and so well appreciated that tbo
audience mado her Blng another song, and
she too received a boquet. Tho program,
mo ended with a quartette, "Sleep, Dar.
ling Sleep," Misses Fox and Miller, and
Messrs. Wirt and Wlnterstccn, a beautiful
composition by Parry, charmingly sung by
theso well known yocallsts, Mrs. Osbourn
sang "Drcaro.6" by special request. Miss
Maud Runyan Is entitled to special praise
for tho very laborious part which sho so
well pctformed, Bho played the piano
with tho orchestra, and flayed tho accom.
panimcnts for all tho songs, thus requiring
her to appear In nearly every number on
tho programme. Sho is a fine performer,
and did her part with easo and grace.
Tho piano used was kindly loaned by J,
Ballzer. It was ono of tho celebrated Es.
toy make, and Its fine tones added greatly
to tbe rxccllcDCo of all tho music.

Ing, surprising tho pooplo, os this stranger
was not expected In such mountainous and
broken Ijcalltlcs. Tho beautiful groves,
shado trees and shrubbery will bear testi
mony of Its presence for years to come.
The stricken people will chafe from the
effects of Its merciless hand during tho re
mainder of thoir lives. A fear of itsrepo
titlon will glvo anxious forebodings to
every ono in tho land when Btorm clouds
lower with threatening aspect, for the
question of cyclones In its worst forms, In
localities llko ours Is now settled onco for
all. Tho wrecked buildings, barns and
houses, afford no protection to gathered
crops, or stock unsheltered, household
furniture, clothing or other goods where
repairs havo not yet bjen made. Tho
work of rebuilding and repairing has been
of slow progress 011 account of continuous
rain. All along tho lino wo saw steam and
horso power threshers engaged in thresh.
Ing out tho gathered crops to save them
from ruin among tho wrecks. Many farm
crs and other classes aro unable to replace
their losses and help from thu state should
bo Invoked and secured. This unfortu
nate calamity In our stricken community
is not a self imposed ono that might have
been averted, but It Is tho result of tho
power of tho turbulent elements pouring
their fury upon the earth regardless of
vcgitatlon, animation, condition or local
ity, wealth or poverty, or any other attri
bute that may enter tho social or political
relation of mankind. It Is Impossible to
descrlbo tho situation, want, suffering and
Inconveniences that have boon sn suddenly
thrust upon many well-to-do, able and per
haps heretofore somo independent pooplo
who wcro almost instantly reduced to
poverty. Tho situation Is grave and
worthy the consideration of a generous and
sympathetic public. Tho losses vary In
number quality and kind. Every dcscilp.
lion of property ia destroyed, from the
ornamental trco to tho factory and palaco.
From the orchard ot all manner of fruits to
tho house and barn with all appertaining
thereto. Thcro Is also a romantic side to
this terrible, disaster. It Is related ot one
old man near Register, who refused to
take shelter in tho cellar with othor mom
bers of tho family, that when tho cy-
clone struck his bouse, It was carried bodl -
ly from its foundation, leaving a wreck
from all external appearances, bis hat was
swept to tho winds with othor wrecks, and
reaching for it, remarked tbat his hat, or
head was gone he didn't know which. It
is said ot another, near tho samo place,
who was carried a distance and somewhat
Injured, from a demolishod building, re
marked afterwards that, "this was tbo
worstest storm that I ever seed." And
that is the slzo of It, It was the worst
storm overseen in this county. At Har
vey vllle wo saw a barn in which fifty peo
ple and a team took shelter.whlch was whol -
ly demolished and only ono person was kill
ed without much injury to tho team or any
other person. Ono old lady aming the
debris, cade J out:" how many are killed?"
Bhe heard a reply, "no one', they guessed.
Bho called again, "Is anybody hurt?" Tho
answer came, "no one" they gues ;cd. The
rescuo of all thoso people savo ono from
the ruins is a marvelous circumstance.
