Wilkes-Barreans, or many of

vicinity of the pest house have
threatened to destroy it and trouble

stituation in regard to the dUease
is most alarming. Several new
caries have been discovered, one of
them withiu the city limits.

THE ALUMNI.
The eighth annual banquet of the
Alumni, was the occasion of quite
an intellectual gathering at the High
School building last evening. It
presented a scene such as is only af
forded where youth, wit and vivacity
are the prominent features and
where joy is undisturbed. A feeling
of "it is good to be here" infested
the entire assembly and all else but
pleasure was forgotten in the gen
eral wave of sociality which perme
ated the recesses of the the sanctum
where character is bred and blos
somed. The banquet board was spread in
the large recitation room, the seats
on one entire side having been re
moved. The decorations and ar
rangement of the spacious interior,
was grand, and easily exceeded all
efforts of past years.
About nine thirty all were re
quested to take their places at the
tables. Prof. L. P. Sterner, pre
sided as toastmaster. The menu,
which was a fine one was prepared
and served by F. M. Gilmore
Throughout the serving of the
edibles, the School Orchestra furn
ished delightful music. The sooth
ing strains drove care to the four
winds and left in its stead a peace
ful satisfactory feeling which seem
ed deep rooted in every participant.
Alter all had done justice to the
repast, leaving just sufficient intel
lectual digestive powers' to absorb
all that was to follow, comfortable
attitudes were assumed aud close at
tention was paid to the treat of
tradition and wholesome satire.
The program follows:
"We've been eating tonight on the old
camp ground, Thinking of days
fone by."
'. Sterner, Torwtmn.Hter.
Address of Welcome J. Guy Kleppy
"To thine own lf be true, and keep
Thy mind from sloth, thy heart
from soil,"
Response Maurice Buck
"And the class was delighted
To think It vm Invited
To sit up till the hour when the big
folks went to bed." ,
Music The Orchestra
Our Mumnl Harry J. Achcnbnch
"I suppose If nil the members .
Who have II ved through the ages long
Were collected and inncted
They would make a wondrous
throng."
Our Public Schools Miss Mabel Moyer
"Who but the children can express
Half the delights of 'Noon Recess'."
Music The Orchestra
Athletics Josinh Johnson
"And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong its iron Imnds."
Recitation Miss Kdith Keller
Music The Orchestra
The Lizard Claude K. Rittenbcnder
"Who is he that dares to touch me.
With n grip so strong and bold?
'Tis the sailor, young and brave.
At the conclusion, it was voted
the most successful meeting the As
sociation has ever held, and the
memory of it will serve to keep up
the history of the alumni in a per
fect way.
DEATH OF ELLIS BIDLEMAN, SR.
Ellis Bidleman, Sr., died oi appo
plexy on a street in Kalamazoo,
Michigan, May 23, last, aged 73
years, 2 months and three days.
Mr. Bidleman, was born in Blooms
burg, March 20, 1828, and lived here
until he arrived at manhood. In
1855 he went to Michigan, but only
stayed a few years, when he returned
to his native town. He finally went
back to Michigan, where he has re
sided continuously ever since. The
following account of his death is taken
from the Schoolcraft Express.
Ellis Bidleman left his home there
Wednesday, May 22 apparently in the
best of health, and going to Kalama
zoo to remain a couple of days partly
on business and to visit an old Perm
sylvania friend residing in the city.
He had spent Wednesday night with
his friend, and was coming down
town, about 8 o'clock Thursday
morning and when on North Rose
street, near Main, he was noticed to
suddenly fall to the pavement, and
was picked up by a policeman. Al
though conscious, and realizing his
condition he was at first unable to
make known his identity, but fortun
ately H. E. Cole, happened to be
near and rendered assistance in car
ing for him, and he was taken to the
Kalamazoo hospital and attended by
Dr. Crane. Soon after being taken
to the hospital he became unconscious
and remained in that condition un
til death, which occurred Thursday
evening shortly before eight o'clock."
Deceased was married to Sarah C.
Ale of Bloomsburg, December 7, 1873
this union being blessed with one
daughter, Anna, who has been a
teacher in the Menominee schools
the past year Mrs. Bidleman de
parted this life in 1882. Besides
his daughter he leaves to mourn his
loss a brother, Ramsey Bidleman, and
a sister, Mrs. Dr. Chapin, bo'.h resid
ents of Schoolcraft. He was an up
right citizen and respected by a large
circle of friends and neighbors.
The funeral was held from the resi
dence of his brother east of this village
Sunday afternoon May 26 at 2 o'clock
F.ev. A Wetherbee, tne Episcopal
pastor, officiating. Interment was
in Schoolcraft cemetery.
MEMORIAL DAT AOOIbENT,
For the first time in many years M.
P. Lutz did not take part in the Me
morial Day exercises. He was to
have been the chief marshal of the
parade, and about a halt an hour prev
ious to the time the procession was
scheduled to start, had secured his
horse, and ' was standing in front of
his residence on Third street. He
was conversing with a friend when
the animal suddenly moved forward,
ptecipitating him into the gutter. He
landed on his right foot with such
force that the bone above the ankle
was broken in two places. He was
carried into his home and Dr. Champ
hn summoned. Mr. Lutz's age will,
it is feared, in a case of this kind,
prolong his confinement.
