WEDDED LA8T WEEK- Iwo Well Known Young Peopl ol Town, Plight Their Troth at Philadelphia. Mr Arthur Ileimiller and Miss Natalie Foulke, both well known and popular young people of Blooms burg, gave their many fiiends a big surprise last week by announcing their marriage, which tock place in the Chapel of St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 16th and Locust Streets, Philadelphia, at five o'clock Tues day afternoon. The Rector of St. Mark's, Rev. Dr. Mortimer offici ated and the beautiful ring cere mony was used. Those who wit nessed the happy event, were Mrs. E. J. Shaw, the bride's aunt, Miss Edna MacMullan and Miss Marga ret F. Laubach. Mr. and Mrs. Ileimiller, for the past week have had apartments at "The Waiton," Broad and Locust Streets. Yesterday they left Philadelphia for an extended tour which will include a trip up the Hudson River and other points of interest throughout New York State. The bride is the enly daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pierce Foulke, and has for years been a member of St. Taul's Church Choir. She possesses a brilliant quality of suprano voice, and has handled the solo work of the choir in a manner that has fully displayed the natural excellence of her singing. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Ileimiller, of Catharine street. The Columbian joins with the many friends and acquaintances of the young couple in extending hearty congratulations. i GIAHTS WON- It was a great fight the Normal team gave the Cuban Giants yes terday afternoon and it was not utv till the closing innings of the con test that the dusky individuals were able to take a firm hold of the bit. Up to the seventh inning it was clean, fast and thrillingly ex citing, but here the Normal took a tumble, several of the players seemed to lose control of themselves and from that time on, things were easy for the Giants. There was some great work in the early stages ol the game, and the finish of several of the innings was of the sort that causes hair to raise on various heads, bald or otherwise. Lynch pitched for Normal, and it was his superb control and head work in the box that kept the Giants down to six hits. He bas been doing good work right along, but he never shone more brilliantly than yesterday, and that the Nor mal lost is no fault of bis. Durlin caught till the latter part of the game, when after having twice collided with third baseman Schmaltz, he was ordered to the bench and Stone took his place. Normal only made one run, and that in the last inning after two were out, but that tally looked as big as a house. It was legitimately earned and when Titman crossed the plate the crowd went wild. With all of Normal's apparent looseness in the field, 6 was the txtent of the Giants efforts -la the run getting line. The same teams will play today and again on Monday. Five Generations Represented. Five generations were represent ed in a groupe photographed at Jonestown on Sunday, They were: Nathan Dreisbach, aged 89 years; Mrs. Isaac Fahringer, his daughter; l1 rank Fahringer, his grand-sou; Guy Fahringer, his great grand son; and Ralph Fahringer, his great-great grandson.

How true is the statement we Know not, nut it is no doubt well substantiated, ttiat$o, 000,000 go every month into Wall Street from people of the cities, towns and villages of the entire country who are anxious to get something for nothing in stock speculations .90 per cent of which goes into the coffers of the brokers and their 250,000 employees, many of whom live in houses of luxury.

If there is anything that makes me sick it is a fool woman hugging a dog." It comes pretty near being the truth. Society has put matern ity out of fashion. The society wo man who happens to have a child puts it out to the care of a nurse ana men goes to ride in her auto mobile taking with her the pet cue dog. No wonder the dogs turn out better than the kids. The terrible catastophy at Harris burg last week brings to mind how careless people are in not having something about them which will serve as a means ot identification in case of accident. The wisdom of making some provision for showing the name and address is apparent every little while, especially in the case of those who travel. None of us know what will befall and while we all hope that no outward fate will be ours, it is not amiss that each of us guard against uncertainty as to identity in case the unexpect ed happens. The Transportation of Explosives. The disaster at Harrisburg Thurs day morning as the result of the explosion of a carload of dynamite in transit has caused much discus sion among railway officials as to the best method of handling hieh explosives so as to avoid danger to life.

President Baer, of the Reading, suggested the building of a special car or cars with padded sides and other means of reducing concussious to a mini mum. Another official suggested that only 100 pounds be permitted to be carried in oue car and that no train bs permitted to join two cars together which had the allot ment in it. He also suggested that not more than 1,000 pounds of dynamite or other high explosive be carried on one train. PURELY PERSONAL Ellii Even of Millvillc, was noticed on out Kticcts Tuesday, Chn I..

Many people who think of Japan as only an island, small in extent and population, may change their impression by learning that the little "island" with its attachment of Formosa and Kuril islands, con tains 160,000 square miles. Great Britain and Wales only contains 53,000, so that Japan is almost three times as large as Great Britain, and while Great Britain and Wales have 23,000,000 people Japan has 44, 000.000, so that in the line of popu lation and extent of territory she isn't so small. These islands are strung along the Atlantic coast, while the northern ones are in the arctic region, the southern ones are in tne tropics, so that the empire contains every variety of climate and porduction. Last season's championship re cord of the McDonald and Snyder base ball team of Wilkes-Barre was 110 where in evidence in the game with Normal Saturday afte: noon. If they played the games and accomplished what they claim to have done last season, their retrogression since that time has indeed been most grievous. In no department of the game did they show any form, and the first in ning, during which Normal scored five runs, was about as much as anybody cared to see of the game Long, formerly of Benton was on the slab for Normal and his per formance was highly pleasing to his many friends, who had come down to see him pitch. Orne has a bright future before him, and the next few seasons should place him in line for a league position. The game ended with the score 11 to 4 in favor of Normal. , mi Miss i'ergnson to Wed.
