Hernial School Rotes.
Contractor Long of Wilkes-Barre,
was "on the hill" Monday and means
now to go on at once with a large
force of men, upon the new building.
By Commencement time it is hoped
that the walls will be well under way,
and our visiting friends may be given
an idea of the general plan of the in
terior. Every true Alumnus of the school
will be glad to note the continued
prosperity of the school.
Prof. Welsh is away this week. He
is attending the examination at the
West Chester School, examining in
English Grammar, Rhetoric, Latin
and kindred subjects. He will prob
ably return Friday. He has our sym
pathy thisc hot days.
Among the many, good things of
the school which have helped contin
ually, to elevate the standard of rec
titude and true moral worth among
the students, to sav nothing of the
beautiful development and growth of
christian character in so large a num
ber of our young men and women,
no one thinir has done more than the
sending each year, of a delegation of
our boys to Dr. Moody s school at
Northfield, Conn., to spend ten days
in organized liiDie study uncier me
splendid leadership ot his trained ais
rinles.
This year it is hoped wt shall be
able to send a larger number than
ever. To this end a meeting was
held Sunday evening which may well
be called a Noithfield meeting, var
ious remarks were made bv the dele
gates who attended last year and then
efforts were made to secure funds to
aid in defraying the expenses of those
who shall go this year. The delegates
elected bv the Association are Messrs.
Sutliff, Hendricks,Deiffenderfer. Hub-
ler, Beale, and the rresident 01 tne
Association. Frank Patton.
Mr. Dillon the florist, is now busy
with a force of men preparing the
beds for the usual placing 01 Deauu
ful flowers about the crounds. The
advent of the flowers is always hailed
by every student with gladness, ior
thev add so much of beauty, and
cheerfulness, and inspiration to the
grounds.
Again the school is called upon to
mourn the death of a fellow student
Mr. David Lesher, youngest son of
.Robert Lesher, and who had just re
cently attained his aist year aiea
Saturday eveninor last at to o'clock.
He was sick only about ten days, and
his loss to our school win De soreiy
felt.
Dave was a quiet boy, always at
his post, and ready tor duty, nis
death was a most peaceful and happy
one. H
The school sent Profs. Bakeless and
Albert; the Y. M. C. A. and the Phi-
lo Society in both of which Mr. Lesh
t was an active worker, sent Messrs.
BIoss and Robt. Patton and Messrs.

TWO PREACHERS IN TROUBLE.
BOTH ARE KNOWN IN COLUMIIIA COUNTY
An exchange says 1
"The Bradford Baptist Association
held a meeting at Canton two weeks
ago to take cognizance of the charges
preferred against Rev. C. A. Babcock,
member of the Bradford associa
tion. The charges were that the rev
erend gentlemen had departed from
the line of duty and acted in a manner
unbecoming a minister of the Gospel.
After hearing the testimony as pre
sented to the council, it was found
necessaty to approve the finding and
in consequence the aforesaid Mr. Bab
cock was deposed from the ministry."
At the time of the vote on the Pro
hibition amendment to the constitu
tion, Mr. Babcock resided in Blooms
burg for several months, and had
charge of the campaign for the Prohi
bition party.
The Milton Rcooril says :
"Some years ago a clergyman by the
name of R. H. Singer, came here and
organized a church under the title of
the Disciples of Christ. He went from
here to Clinton county where a bad
streak overtook him. He and his
parishioners at Fleming disagteed. A
suit followed which never came to
issue. Fayette county heard of these
things and he was sent for to answer
for cimes committed in that county.
He is still in jail because nobody
wants to put up $1,000 for his appear
ance." This is supposed to be the same
man who created considerable com
motion up the creek a year or two
ago, and about whom there was a
lengthy correspondence published in
the Columbian. The charges against
him are of the same character as these
that were made in this county.
AN OLD 8T0Rf.
As we are now hearing and reading
so many stories about Chicago, and
not always of a style that is intended
to be complimentary, it brings to my
mind a story that was published about
forty-five years ago.
At that time Chicago and St. Louis
were rival villages, and many were the
spicy stories told by one citizen at the
expense ot the other. 1 ne louowing
is a specimen of a St Louis writer.
'A man from tt. Louis went to
Chicago on business ; while there he
fell kick, and as he was a stranger and
rather plainly dressed no one paid
much attention to him. One morning
after moping around for a few days,
he failed to put in an appearance,
The landlord went to his room and
found him to all appearance past pray
ing for. His papers were then exam
ined to ascertain wno ne was ana
where he belonged, lit was discovered
that he was one of the wealthiest men
in St Louis. A physician was sum
moned to examine the case and de
termine what had caused his death,
An examination developed the fact
that he was not actually dead, but
rather in a stupor or a trance. Means
were promptly made use ot to restore
him to consciousness, and success re-
Warded their efforts. He improved
very rapidly, and in a few days he was
so that he could sit up and converse
with those around him.
The landlord being of an inquisitive
turn of mind asked him, "How did
things appear to you while 111 a trance ? '
The stranger replied, "I thought I had
died and gone to Heaven. I knocked
at the door, a porter opened it and
ushered me into a room where I found
St. Peter sitting at a desk or writing
table, and beside hiin a smoking bowl
of whiskev toddv. He invited mi to
take a seat, and then asked me,
"Where did you live down below ?'
I told him in St. Louis, in the state of
Missouri. "Where did you die ?"
told him in Chicago in the state of
Illinois. He glanced over some pa-
pers and shook his head saying, "There
13 UKJ l.V.V.
"I beg your pardon, sir," said I,
"but have you a map of the United
States here."
He handed me down a splendid
atlas. I turned to the map and point
ed to the place.
"Well I well 1" sau' he, "sure enough
there it is, but I'll be blest if you are
not the first mr.n that ever came here
from that place."
Times have greatly changed since
the above was written, and it may not
now be so surprising to St. Peter if
some one from Chicago calls at his
office. If the idea that he keeps the
smoking bowl at his side is a correct
one, I have no doubt that would be
great attraction. C.
Mured Edgar died at his home in
Fishingcreek township on Sunday af-
ternoon. He was a son of county
commissioner B. F. Edgar, and leaves
a wife and child. The funeral took
place on Wednesday morning'
SCHOOL BOAHD.
A meeting of the School Board was
held at the High School Library, Fri
day evening, June 2nd, to hear the re
port of the lreasurer. Ihe report
wa3 road, directed to be given to the
Auditors, and when affirmed by Audi
tors, it was directed that the statement
be published in the Republican and
the Columbian. An adjourned meet
ing was called for Monday evening.
Monday eveningjune 5th,board met
pursuant to adjournment, the Treas
urer's report as presented was approv
ed by the auditors, and accepted by
the board, after which the old board
dissolved. A meeting of the new
board was immediately called, and
oseph Garrison made temporary
chairman and W. E. Rinker, Secretary.
On motion it was directed that in view
the increased labor assigned
because of the Act requiring directors
to purchase all text books and the
Secretary to keep a record of them,
therefore the salary of the Secretary
be fixed at $175 per year. The mo
tion was unanimously agreed to. The
commission of the treasurer was fixed
at 2 per cent, on all moneys paid by
orders, and if any bonds should be
issued, 1 per cent on all moneys so
received and disbursed. The follow
ing officers were then selected for the
year : President, Joseph Garrison;
Secretary, W. E. Rinker ; Treasurer,
R. Townsend. On motion it was
resolved that the next school term
shall consist of nine months, and that
Monday, June 19th be fixed as the
time for the selection of teachers and
janitors ; a notice of which to be pub
lished in the town papers. The tax
rate was fixed at 5 J mills 3 for
school purposes and 2 for building
purposes. It was resolved to charge
a tuition of 50 cents per week to all
parties residing out the district one
half payable in advance.
CENTENNIAL NOTES. I
Miss Mary K. Snyder of Selins-1
grove, a lady who is much interested
in the work of the Episcopal Church,
was among the distinguished visitors
who attended the centennial cele
bration of St. Paul's Church last week.
Bishop Howe had expected to at
tend the centennial last week, but was
prevented by his infirmities incident to
old age.
The old bell was an object of much
interest to the visitors. It now stands
in the corridor between the church
and Parish House, and it is the in
tention of the church authorities to
place it on a pedestal, and preserve it
as a relic. It was made in 1848, and
was the first church bell in Blooms
burg.
Rev. T. B. Angell, Archdeacon of
Harrisburg Archdeaconry, was among
the after dinner speakers at the lunch,
in the Parish House.
Rev. G. C. Foley, ex-Archdeacon
of Williamsport Archdeaconry was
among those called upon by the Bish
op for an after dinner speech.
The funeral of Rev. John Donohoe
took place last Friday afternoon.
Among those present were Rev. Dr.
Monroe, Rev. R. Hinckle. Rev. Dr.
Pennypacker, Rev. M. L, Ganoe, Rev.
Dr. Mitchell, Rev. Dr. Foster, Rev.
Dr. Evans, Rev. S. W. Sears, Rev. D.
H. Shields, Rev. Mr. Ferguson, Rev.
Dr. Bowman, and a large number of
other Methodist Clergymen of the dis
trict.
Mr. Uonohue entered the ministry
in 1865, and had charges consecutive
ly at Mount Holly, Altoona, Cham,
bersburg, Waynesboro, Everett, Wil
liamsport, Bellefonte, Bloomsburg,
Ashland, Itazleton, and was maoe
residing eider . in ioao. tic was a
graduate of Dickinson College, Car
lisle. The remains were taken to
Baltimore for burial on Saturday morn
in2-
A little excitement was created
Tuesday evening by the arrest of a
street vender. The facts as given us,
are, that he advertised in Tuesday's
Daily that there would be a public
auction of shirts and gents' furnishing
goods on Market Square in the even
ing. In the evening the vender ap
peared as advertised and began his
sales, when a warrant preferred by
John Mosteller, one of our town mer
chants, was served on the traveller and
he was taken before Guy Tacoby Esq,
for violation of the laws of- trade by
not paying either tax or mercantile
license. In the squire's office the trav-
eller testified that he had obtained per
mission lrom the President of the
Town Council j the answer was given
that it was a violation of the county
and state laws, over . which the town
had no jurisdiction. The traveller
was left oil by paying the costs and
promising to leave town immediately.
