The Patrons Plenle and Exhibition Being Held this Week at Grange Park, Incidents of the Week, The Twentieth Annual Picnic and Fxhibition opened literally on Mon day morning, 18th to continue one week at Grange park, above the sta- tion. For two weeks previous the committee on arrangements had been laboring to get the park in proper shape for the picnic. A large new building, 80x40 feet was erected and js being used as the auditorium, in lieu of the canvas tent used in former years, The new building is a creditable one and hasa seating capacity of about one thousand. All last week men were busily em- ployed arranging the grounds and erecting the tents which were receiv- ed from the state. About 300 have been erected and by Saturday campers began to move out for a week of out- | door life. Over Sunday about fifty tents were occupied, Religious services held Sab- the main auditorium Hall ministers delivere of their regular ap- { pointments; Rev, Baskerville officiat- | ed in the morning, Rev.

The order in town and park so far! has been good, the park being patroll- | ed by a squad of six policemen under Col. Amos Mullen, of Bellefonte. One iarrest was Tuesday.

The | trains brought a goodly number and conveyances from all parts of the coun- | ty added their quoto. The exercises in the auditorium were all well at- tended and much interest seems man- ifested in the addresses delivered on the popular and absorbing subjects of | the day, interesting the general public. Duming the evening a most interesting temperance lecture was de- livered by Mrs. Carrie Twing, of New York; the auditorium was crowded and it was with difficulty that a seat could be obtained. The attendance this year including Wednesday will not qdite reach the mark of last year, but several plausible reasons can be as signed to this, THURSDAY. This morning opened finely and in- dications point to a large crowd. The day is always considered the largest during the week. The trains coming in were well-llled and a much larger crowd promises to be present than yesterday. 2 SPEARErs, peas r attendance i opened bright and begs town near ol vie filled week, of this not y be nssigning made on gave Was Set in Motion, After a suspension of five months on account of destruction by fire, the Mann edge tool company set the wheels in motion at their new plant in Lewistown, on Monday for a trial run.

The Millheim town council, we are informed by a citizen of that town, returned the turnpike through Mill heim as in bad condition. This bad the desired effect and the pike com- pany was obliged to put its road in proper condition, and the taxpayers were at no expense. Why was not the same course persued by the coun- oil of Centre Hall Instead of doing it at the expense of our citizens? Why is this? The Millheim council surely took the proper and only legal course. Our citizens are made to smart and the pike company laughs.
