consecutive Weekly Parts, each con
taining sixteen to twenty magnificent
Photographic Views and Historical
Descriptions of the World's Fair and
the Midway Plaisance, by the famous
American Author, Mr. J. W. Buel.
The Thotographs are the finest that
have ever been offered to the public.
They constitute a splendid series of
over 300 views in natural photograph
colors, embracing all the wonderful
features of the World's Fair and its
surroundings, and the famous Midway
Plaisance, with its curious and inter
esting character sketches of life in
foreign countries and among wild and
curious races of people.
It is the greatest, the grandest, the
most beautiful, the only complete
History of the Fair that has been pub
lished. The photographs, in natural
colors, arc beautiful as a dream, while
the historical descriptions give the
work a value beyond all computation

in existence. They were taken by
trained artists of more than national
reputation, who knew how to secure
the best results and the most favorable
points of view. Their beauty and
splendor will be a surprise to our
readers. Nothing equal to them has
ever been seen in pictoriaf represen
tations ; and the fact that they were
obtained especially for The Magic
City, and will not be made common
by promiscuous publication m other
works, adds a hundredfold to their
value. The Columman always gets

Stage Struck Runaway Oaugnt.
Mary White, a pretty 16-year-old
girl, was arrested at Wilkes-Barre on
Monday by Detective Bauer on a tel
egram from her father, Robert White,
a prosperous farmer of Orangeville.
She left her home on Sunday night.
She is stage struck, and thought by
going to that city she could get an en
gagement with a company. She "ar
rived there Monday morning and went
to a museum and asked to be put on
at a small salary to do a song and
dance act, but Manager Irving had
no room for her. She was afterward
an-ested and her father went and
brought her home. She says she will
go on the stage, though, at the first
opportunity, and is not in the least
discouraged by her first failure.
THr WOKSTED MILL ASSURED.
The papers in the matter ot the
Worsted Mill were signed last week
and an agreement made by which the
workwill be commenced. The firm
will make application for a charter
and have the company incorporated
The operators of the plant will con
trol the stock and the subscribers to
the amount raised among our capital
ists will be secured by first mortgage
bonds. Millville can give pointers to
towns of greater pretentions in the
matter of hustling after an enterprise,
and this plant was secured by a unit
ed and prompt effort being made.
The firm who has been operating
this plant in Blocmfburg since the
carpet mill started at that place,
comes with the full knowledge of their
business as to its possibilities and re
quirements, but leave Bloomsburg be
cause their cpjarters there were too
small for their needs. The old woolen
mill at this place, which has not been
operated to any great extent since the
decline of the woolen industry at the
close of the war, is most admirably
adapted, to the business for which it
will now be used. Milloilte Tablet.
The grading of East Third street
should be completed. Where the new
street was formed the earth is loose
and no pavement laid ; it is difficult
lor footmen to get across.

The sale of reserved seats yesterday
shows that an unusual interest is being
snown in me concert ot tne Lafay
ette College Glee, Mandolin and
Banjo Clubs at Bloomsburg Opera
House on Monday evening March
26th. Those who have heard the
boys this season say they undoubtedly
stand in the first ranks of college or
ganizations and that their program is
thoroughly enjoyed from the first
number to the last.
New features of the program which
have attracted great attention are
selections of a lively nature bv the
combined Mandolin and Banjo Clubs
and the popular Tinker's Song"
from De Koven's "Robin Hood"
which is rendered by the pleasing
combination of all three clubs.
The Quartette selections suggest
Old Plantation Life" and strike a
popular chord wherever sung; while
every number ot the program is of
that popular order peculiar to College
entertainments and which makes them
so enjoyable.
iiieuoaruoi ueaitn sriould give
some attention to tne matter ot vac
cination. The School Board took the
initiative by compelling all school
children to be vaccinated, but there
are many either too young or those
who are at work in the mills, that the
School Board cannot reach and such
hould be looked after bv the Board
of Health. Every precaution should
be taken in due time.
