EMPORIUM, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 21.1900.
Death of a Bright Little Girl.
Sunday evening the sad news was
passed around that Clara May, only
daugtherof Mr. and Mrs.S.D. McCoole,
had died at 3:40 o'clock at the home of
her parents on Driftwood avenue, after
but three days illness, of membraneous
croup. She was aged 4 years, 4 months
and todays. Expressions of sympathy j
were heard from everyone. Clara was (
a bright little girl and a great favorite
of the writer as well as of all who knew
her. She had a premonition of her
deatli and many times during the past
few months to d her parents slie was"go
ing up where God is." Everything that
medical aid, loving hearts and willing
hands could do was done to stay the
hand of death, but all in vain and she (
was called to join the heavenly host
with the parting words "I'm going
away." Tho parents have the heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community in
their sad bert»avement.
The funeral took place Tuesday after- {
noon at 3 o'clock from St. James' j
Church. Interment was made in the !
family burial plot in Oak Hill cemetery.
—Driftwood Gazette. The PRESS ex
tends its sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. j
McCoole and family and deeply regret
their misfortune. Wo know our citi
zens will join us in these expressions.
It is Shameful.
It is with regret and burning shame
that we find it necessary to record the
fiendish action of some people who j
frequent the Newton cemetery during |
the summer evenings, and commit the !
most debasing depredations. Aside
from robbing graves of floral tributes,
placed there by sorrowing friends,
these night prowlers trample over the
graves of those who are dear in the
memory of surviving friends, and ofall
spots that should be regarded sacred,
even by the lowest and most depraved
character, is the silent domicile of our
departed loved ones. It is not conjec
tured that these same ramblers of the
night hie themselves to this lonely
locality for immoral purposes, for the
lateness of the hour lyjars testimony
against them as well as the company
they keep. There surely ought to be
something done to stop this sort of
business.
It is also noticed that the gates are
allowed to swing open and cows, un
lawfully running at large, have com
pletely disfigured mounds that were,
on decoration day, in a beautiful con
dition. The trespass law ought to be
stringently enforced.
Sad News.
Many hearts were made sad in Em
porium when word was received and
circulated of the death of Mrs. Lorena
wife of Rev. C. L.
Bates, formerly Rector of Emmanuel
Church at this, place, and highly hon
ored, at her late home in Wilkinsburg,
Pa., Sunday evening. Deceased leaves
a husband and three children, the'
youngest two weeks old. Mrs. Bates
was loved and esteemed by all in this
place where she was universally known,
and especially will she be mourned by
those of our young people who em
ployed hc-r as music teac her while she
resided here with her parents. She
was a lady of kind, loving and unas
suming nature, and as a music instruc
tor and performer she was n decided
success. This entire community feels
keenly her demise, and we are sure
will join us in sinecrest expressions of
sympathy to the sorely afflicted family :
and friends of this noble lady. The
remains were taken to Titusville for
interment, on Wednesday.
Tuesday's Pittsburg Post says in its
column of deaths: "On Sunday even
ing, June 17, 1900, Lorena May Mc-
Closkey, beloved wife of Rev. Carroll
L Bates, rector of St. Stephen's Church,
Wilkinsburg. Service s will be held at
St. Stephen's Church, corner of Frank
lin avenue and Pitt street, Wilkinsburg,
on Wednesday, June 20, at 10a.m.
Interment at Titusville, Pa , on arrival
of train leaving Pittsburg at 1:40 p. m.

The pension department has ruled
that "Any pensioner, the victim of
strong drinkand dissipated habits, who
makes a public nuisance of himself,
may be investigated by Uncle Sam, and
if found guilty is likely to bo dropped
from the pension rolls." This notice
does not except Cameron county.
Already the newspapers are warning
parents against allowing children to
use toy pistols. The percussion caps
used are charged with fulminate of
mercury, causing blood poisoning and
producing lock jaw. There were hun
dreds of deaths after last Fourth of July
from this cause. Keep the toy pistols
away. They aro more dangerous than
any other kind of explosives.
The employes in all the departments

--Renovo Record. That is a very good

the laboring and industrial classes at
heart, should see that the good pros
perous times be continued by electing
Wm. McKinley and Republican pros

The Buffalo Evening News, Tuesday,
gives account of a confession by the
pastor of the church, connected with
the murder of the two young ladies, in
California, for which Durrant, superin
tendent of the Sunday School, was
banged, and who, it will be remember
ed, protested his innocence to the last.
This preacher, who was the chief wit
ness against Durrant, confessed on his
deathbed, the other day, to have him
self killed the young ladies. Circum
stantial evidence will, no doubt, hang
a man, but it often bangs the wrong
man, as in this case.
Buffalo Chamber .Music Club Coming.
The ladies of Emmanuel Church have
secured the above popular Music Club
and will give a Musical at Miss May
Gould's Studio, next Tuesday afternoon
and evening, for the benefit of the
building fund. Miss Agnes McCoy, of
Smethport, a popular soprano, has
kindly volunteered to assist the Club.
This will be a great musical treat for
our people. The fact that already
more than one hundred and fifty tickets
have been sold is a guarantee that the
musical will be a success. Arrange
ments have been madeforamattineeat
3:30 p. m., in order to accommodate
those who may not be able to attend
the evening musical. Tickets for mat
tinee 25c, evening 35c. All who may

The following press notices will give
our readers some idea of the popularity
of this Music Club:
A very good sized audience greeted
the Chamber Music Club Friday even
ing at the Methodist Church. Mr.
Fricke has appeared here before and
his artistic work on a previous appear
ance was assurance that this concert
would bo a rare musical treat, and such
it proved to be.
The first number, the beautiful Beet
hoven Trio, Op. 11, showed admirable
ensemble work, careful phrasing and
shading, but lacked some what in warmth
and breadth of tone.
Mr. Ball played the Serenade by
Pierne with great delicacy and style
and produced a full singing tone on his
violin. In this number and the second
(Tho Bee, by Schubert,) he showed a
perfect mastery of his instrument. In
response to an encore he played a Ma
zurka with great dash and brilliancy.
The second trio numbers were in
every way satisfactory. Tho Russian
Folk Sc».g by Glinka, one of the most
beautiful numbers on tho program, was
exquisitely rendered. The players were
in perfect sympathy, all the tones of
the different instruments blending into
one harmonious whole.
Mr. Friclte's numbers Sur le Lac
(Godard 1) and Melody (Rubinstein)
were played with all the skill that char
acterizes this artist. Mr. Fricke has a
thorough musician soul, a refined, well
trained taste and musical intelligence
that makes his playing always a delight.
His numbers evoked such hearty ap
plause that ho kindly added another
number.
The three national dances which
closed tho performances were given
with the true national coloring and
spirit and closed a most successful and
pleasant evening.—Fredonia Censor,
April 25, 1900.

The ladies of the Delaware Avenue
Baptist Church, ever noted for the suc
cess of their many entertainments, gave

N. M. Gould, piano; Mr. Joseph A. Ball,
violin; and Mr. Richard Fricke, 'cello,

The first number, the beautiful Beet
hoven Trio, Op. 11, showed admirable
ensemble work, careful phrasing and
shading, and a true interpretation of
the composer.
The second trio numbers were in
every way satisfactory. The "Russian
Folk Song," by Glinka, one of the most
exquisitely rendered. The players were
in perfect sympathy, all the tones of
the beautiful numbers on the program,
was the different instruments blending
into one harmonious whole.
The three national dances which
closed the performances were giver,
with the true national coloring and
spirit.
Mr. Fricke's numbers were played
with all the skill that characterizes this
artist. Mr. Fricke has refined, well
trained ta6te and musical intelligence
that makes hisplaying always a delight.
Mr. Ball played Walter's "Prize
Song," from"The Mastersingers,"with
skill and expression.
Mrs. Minnehansang Gounod's superb
composition, "The Worker," and a
group of crndlo songs, with de«p feel
ing and musical intelligence, her beau

Wedding Bells.
On Wednesday afternoon at the
home of the bride's parents, Mr and
Mrs. Henry J. Lyon, one of the most
prosperous farmers of West Creek,
Mr. Owen C. Dininny and Miss Fannie
Lyon were united in marriage at
three o'clock. Rev. O. S. Metzler,
ofM. E. church performed the cere
mony, assisted by Rev. E.E. Muliner,
in the presnence of not only the near
relatives but a host of friends.
Tiie room in which the ceremony
took place was beautifully decorated.
The couple were supported by Mr.
Claude Lyon, brother of the bride and
Miss Annie Dininny, sister of the
groom. The wedding march wa:
played by Miss Mabel Mulliner

ding supper was served, after which

Prof. Joseph Bern's, who is with The
Great Rhoda Royal Shows this season,
is unquestionably t!w greatest of horse
trainers of the present day. This fact
is clearly demonstrated by his exhibit
ing no less than sixty-three iiorses at
the same time, governing them simply
by verbal commands. This immense
group of horses are put through a start
ling series of drills, marches, change of
gaits, postures, and in conclusion of
their acts presenting a living pyramid
of horses four tiers high. There are a
number cf exhibitors of trained horses
whohavi ieil to duplicate this remark

success. Tie stands alone in his almost
super-human control over man's best
friend—the horse. At Emporium, June
