handsomely from the ice-cream and lem

The P. G. S. S. Pic-nic on Aug. 3rd,
was a complete success. A few weeks ago
an invitation to participate was extended
to the Zion Union S. S., to which invita
tion nn answer was received in the affirma
tive. At tbe appointed time tbe, children
of tho last named school met and marched
in procession to- the P. G. school house,
where a reception of welcome was giver
them by the children of the P.-G. S. 8
The two sohools then proceeded, in ordei
to the grove, where a stand was erected
and handsomely decorated. Tbis'stanc
was occupied by the following ministeria
brethren who were present and took par
in the exercises—Revs. Fischer and Roe
dcr. A very appropriate and spirited ad
dress was also delivered by Mr. T. Fred
erick. Tbe committee en selection o
speakers, may well flatter themselves
The ladies did themselves honor and cred
it in tbe generous supply of substantial
and dainties, and in heartily inviting thei
friends and stangers to partake of thei
royal feast, —a bountiful repast that wouh
tempt the appetite of an epicure. Music
of the highest order, was furnished by th
Sinking Creek brass band. This band
organised only a few years age
)s rapidly tpproaching superiority. Mi
J. Jordon, its present and efficient loads
is aware of the fact that times are cbang
ing and progressing and he is determine
to move with the tide of progression. J
very noticable item of the entertainmer
was a piece of music rendered by the littl
girls and boys,—in fact the vocal music
under the leadership of Prof. Marts, ws

Mr Marts ha# twice been reappointed
choriitcr of the P. G. S. S., and i entitled
to great credit for hi* untiring effort* to
please the school. There were It*' or 500
people on the ground. No drunkenness,
no accident*, no rowdyism— all in ad the
occasion was an enjoyable one and will n
the fuluro be a pleasant reminiscence or
the paat.
This being tho pic-nic season, we
propose that all the candidates in thia
county meet on the mountain at Centre
Hall, and hold a pimnic and candidates'
parade. They urely oughfto he good on
it march, as they are noted travelers,
tjuite a battalion could be formed in line
if each candidate Were present, and a com
petent drill sergeant might bo choaan out
of the crowd of spectator*. As the squad
would he composed of men who have giv
en every assurance that they are anxloua
to "aerre their country," it would present
a line of patriotism novel to behold. Such
a pic-nic would draw a largo crowd whom
the candidate* at intermission might go
for,—affording a good opportunity for a
little electioneering. By all mean* let*
have such a pic-nic before the September
convention, a* we fear after that the spirit
of TO will have evaporated from a large
number of these our fellew citiaen-.
Won't a few of the candidates move In
thia matter, and appoint a candidate
parade and pic-nic on the aforesaid moun
tain? There are captain#, general# and
vetaran* in the crowd enough to make it
a luccea*.

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY IN WALES.
Five Persona Murdered—A Cottage
Set on Fire and Three Children
Burned in Their Bed*.
.From the Lor.Jon Telegraph, July IMb.
A terrible discovery was made at Llang
ibbv, near Newport, Monmouthshire. yes
terday morning. On the pre*too* day a
lad had been at wrlc at the Llandowiais
Farm, with a man named NN atin, a la
borer. who bore an excellent character
for honesty and integrity. The boy went
again to meet Wutkins at the same place
at an early hour yesterday morning, and
finding he did not coma to resume hi* la
bor be proceeded to hi* cottage. On ar-j
riving there a frightful spectacle presented
itself. The body of the unfortunate n>ar. !
Watkins lay on the garden path, his head
being ron a flower-bed, while the
corpse of his wife was also lying qear the
gate. The terrified boy at once ran to tell!
his mother what be had seen, and she ac
companied him to the spot. Subsequent
ly she informed Mr. Evans, of Celuilwich
Farm, of what had taken place and the
police were communicated with. In the
mean time, however, a man named Mor
gan, who was passing, saw the bodies ly
ing in the positions already indicated and
ascertained that both had bad their
throats cut. Ho then became aw are that
the cottage was on fire. By means of a
ladder, Morgan assisted by a neighboring
farmer, removed the tiles and plaster from
the roof, and, the smoko having cleared
away to some extent the two men entered
the building. They found that the dwell
ing had been greatly disturbed, and on ;
proceeding up stairs wore horrified ffind- ;
ing the b -dies of three children ail quite
dead. One was lying with her h*ad be
tween a box and the bedstead, another
under the bed lying on its face, and the
third in tho inner room. Their names
were Charlotte, agel eight; Frederick,
aged fire, and Alice, aged four. All these
had been stabbed and hacked about with a
knife, and all, oapocially the second child,
were much burnt. It seemed as it the
eldest, who had wounds in the back, must
have gone to the window for tho purpose
of raising an alarm, when she was prevent
ed from so doing by tho murderers. The
wound* on the children were apparently
more severe than those inflicted on their
parents, and the opinion of the poople, who
speedily assembled at tho scene of the trag
edy. was that Watkins had been first at
tacked and stunned with a blunt instru
ment, his throat bsir.g efturvsarJs cut
while he was insensible, and that his wife
hid been killed in a similar manner. Al
ter rummaging the lower part of the
home, the miscreants evidently went up
stairs for purposes of plunder, and finding
the children despatched them, setting the
house on fire before making good their es
cape.
The husband and wife were lying near
the gate of the garden, in front of the cot-'
tagn, in a pool of blood, under some thick
bushes and shrubs, which partly shielded
tbem from view from the turnpike road.
Two of the children wero lying on their
beds with their tbtoats cut and dreadfully
charred, and the youngest child also burnt
with it throat cut, lying under the bod. A
couple of tramps in blouse* were seen ly
\ ing under a hedge on Tuesday evening in
the neighborhood, and it is surmised that,
Walkins and his wife wero at supper bo
tween 9or 10 at night, when disturbed by
the murderers. Two cups, half empty,
wero found on the table, and some slices ol
bacon were in the frying pan. The house !
appears to have been ransacked and the
room set on fire. Broken furniture, ap
parently destroyed in tbe scutllc, was ly
ing in all directions.
A D(>UBLE OKIMI: B Y TBA X TS. \
Chicago, August 3.—The Tribune's Bur
lington i Iowa) special says that on Thurs
day afternoon two tramps stopped at a far
mer's house near Trenton, llenry county,
and after getting a good dinner from tho
farmer's wife, and learning that her hus-i
band wouldn't be home till evening, sud
denly seized her, committed a felonous as
sault npon her, and left her insensible.
They had stopped the cries of tho termer's
little daughter by rolling her up tightly in
a blanket. When unrolled, the child wa
nearly suffocated, and died in an hour.
The neighbors are scouring the country
for the fiends.
Brattleboro, Vt., Augusts.—A fourteen
year-old adopted daughter of Mr. Kdward
Crosby was brutally outraged by a tramp j
about 11 o'clock this morning within a

ROBBERIES BY MASKED MEN.
