McKINNEY, No. 8 East Main St. TIP THE GREEK NEWS. The grand opening of Clark Utt's Rhorsburg Hotel went off in fine style Wednesday night of last week. Blooms burg, Benton and the surrounding county were fully represented. All the Benton landlords were there. Blooms burg furnished the music, Rhorsburg wai gay for one night Among the county seat residents we noticed John S. Williams, auctioneer; W. H. rienry, Prothonotary; and Thornton Freeze, candidate for Register and Recorder. The county Sunday School Con vention held at Orangeville, was a success. Thursday and Friday Orangeville was full of people. It was held in the Presbyterian church. On Thursday night it required two churches to accommodate the throngs. Speakers plenty and the addresses good. The music was conducted by the fine ' leader of the Methodist church, Bloomsburg. Berwick was well represented by Hiram Bower, Rev. Smith, Dr. Michael and others. We haven't the time or space to men tion especially the speakers, but Mr. Lowe of Lime Ridge put in some good words, while others contributed large ly to the affair in ths way of work. This Sunday School Convention busi ness is a grand affair in the way of Christianity, in the way of taking hold of the youth and planting their feet in the right path. Napoleon said: "Give me the youth of France, and I will make a great nation". So the churches are getting the youth incorporated in to the churches and that makes a powerful Christian Nation. It is the only hope and remedy against the powers of darkness. The churches seem to lead the world toward the millennium. W. II. Henrie has served a term of two and a half years, we understand, as prothonotary of our county and clerk of the courts. The best thing of an office holder that can be said is that he has discharged the duties and obligations of his office with fidelity; and tins can De said of Henrie. He has been tested, and not found wanting- is a candidate for the second term and his fidelity and experience recommends him to the voters of our county irrespective of party or politics; is justly entitled to the second term. Mrs. Dr. Mather, daughter ot mer chant Ammerman of Forks, has been lying quite ill with carbuncle. On the Sabbath of June nth Chil dren's Meeting will be held in Zion's church at 3 o'clock p. m. The people of Forks are interested in this meeting. . M. Labauch and grandson have both purchased recently two very fine buggies. On Tuesday last we carried flowers to adorn the graves of our heroic dead. They were gathered from the garden, ', the lawn, the field, the vale, the valley, the woodland, and perhaps the moun tain side. The children gathered them, I Among the bills passed by the Pawnee Bill's Great Oombined Showt. young men and maidens gathered them, the widows of dead heroes gathered them, the mothers of dead heroes, and the fathers brought them to pour over the tombs of those who fought and fell for their country, This is a beautiful ceremony and it shows our appreciation for those who laid down their lives that their country might live. It keeps up our patriotism which we hope will never die out. Flowers are the poetry of nature; the alphabet of angels. They grow bright and beautiful to adorn our earth as the stars adorn the dark blue can opy ot God. How sacred are flowers in their perfume, their loveliness and beauty. Memorial days; live on forever, for the sake of patriotism, for the sake of country. No other nation ever had Memorial Days. We find no record of Memorial Days except in our own land. May God help us to save our country for the use and enjoyment of future generations. Quill Pen. To Car Con.tlpatlon Forever. Take Cascarets Candy Cathartic. lOe or e. It C. C.

This is for the purpose of having a register that will show against whom taxes are to be assessed. A fire last Thursday at Coney Island destoyed eight blocks of buildings at that popular resort, the loss being nearly $1,000,000.

A new and desirable era has been inaugurated by the fortuitous blending of these great combined shows. What the Pawnee Bill show is and what it has been for the past fifteen years is so patent to everybody that it is like gilding refined gold and painting the 1 illy to descant on its well-known sup eriority. Nothing then can be more meritorious and attractive than its limitless wealth of consolidated mar vels; and as space is' limited, we can therefore only give a brief outline. First, we would call attention to Major Gordon W. Lillie (Pawnee Bill) the white chief of the Pawnees, and late hero of Oklahoma; with 100 genu ine Indians, brave cow boys, noted scouts and trappers, including Grey Eagle 2d, chief of the Sioux Indians, and several of his tribe, including Red Cloud,Spotted Tail and several squaws and pappooses; also bands of Mohave and Digger Indians; Aztecs from Mex ico; Cliff Dwellers from Vancouver Is land. Special attention is called to Miss May Lillie, champion horseback rifle shot of the world; a grand, thrill ing Mexican Bull Fight, divested of all its cruel pains, will be given at each exhibition; wonderful feats of horsemanship by Senor Jose Valas ques, riding and driving 35 flying horses at one time; a herd of buffaloes and wild Texas steers; thrilling hippo drome races by 'genuine Mexicans; including chariot races, hurdle races, standing races and all kinds of comical races; 40 first-class performers, 10 beautiful senoritas and a host of others. Come early and see the grand street parade; bands of music, wild beast cavalcade; also a grand, free perform ance, worth coming miles to see. It costs you nothing.
