The steer was finally corrolled on Mahoning street and killed. A Hobby Post-ufflco.

A bullet pierced tho templo of the dead man. It Is the prcsumutlon that Brumm first waded Into tho water and then shot himself. About six months ago young Brumm sent to Germany for a friend, Fred. barker, paying his passage to this country. When Warkcr arrived here Brumm procured employment for him on the farm of Mr. Bohn, his sweet heart's father. Tho new comer had not been In the Bohn family long till ho began making love to Miss Bohn. This made Brumm very angry and In a fit of jealousy he went to Miss Bohn's house and demanded an explanation. She treated mm coolly anil returned to him tho engagement ring. Strikers Parading With Clubs and Bed Flags. A labor disturbance took nlarn nt Pottsvllle Tuesday morning which, for u nine, inreaicneti serious trouble.

They tried to Induce these to join them and falling becamo threaten ing. A force of police appeared on the scene and attempted to arrest the ring leaders. Tho mob resisted. Thnnffl drew their revolvers and bloodshed seemed inevitable. Finally some twenty of the strikers were captured, taken ucioro a jiagtstrato and sent to jail. The strikers then left nnd started for a place where anothercontract job was In progress, in tho direction of St. Clair, but were headed off by the officers and turned back. They then scattered.

On Sunday evening, May 31, tho Re formed and Lutheran Sunday school of Wcissport celebrated Its floral festival. After tho church was filled to Its utmost the exercises of the. .evening began by the "Song of Welcome," which was. ren dered very creditably by the school. The most prominent feature of tho exercises was tho singing by the school and by the choir of the church. Allow mo to say at this juncture,, that .the music rendered by'the" school and choir warpertlnent to tho occasion, nnd svell cxccutcd under the efficient leadership of tho organist, Miss Emma Klstlcr. Addresses, appropelate to tho occ'a--slon wcro mado by Rev. O. P. Stcckcl' and Mr. Frank Snyder. Tho former in tho course of his address said: "When wo study the flowers or the vegetable kingdom In their relation toman, the head and climax of nature, wo may get to tho knowlcdgo of their significance and worth. We cannot doubt that there Is not an ultimate and specific design In God's universal creation. All tho king dom below man, the animal, vegetable and mineral find their true significance In their relation to man, as subservient to his physical, Intellectual and moral welfare; lessons of almost Infinite value are spread .out before us to bo read, If happily wo have eyes to see; voices of the most profound Intent are filling tho vast orb of nature, to be heard, If hap pily we have cars to hear. By searching we may find to understand "Tongues In trees; books In the running brooks; Sermon ln'stoncs, and good In everything." "Who Is there that cannot find In struction and Inspiration in the beauty and lovllncss of the rose, an emblem of purity nnu innocence. Who is not charmed by tho almost endless variety of floral color which addresses the see ing eye on every hillside, in every glen and valley. Yes, the language of nature speaKS to mo preceptive soul ot man through her forms and colors of end less variety tho mysterious powers of wuicn no one can tuny lathom. May we not bo truly lifted from nature to natures' God by contemplating some of tho beauties of the natural creatlon;may not our hearts be kindled with a holler zeal by tho very presence of God speak ing through these exquisite manifesta tions. Do not the flowers minister to tho higher wants and powers of the soul?" The speaker after speaking of tho Important function of tho beautiful as an clement In culture as well as re ligion, concluded by directing the minds of his hearers to Jesus Christ, who is tho great and perfect exempler of the Good, the True and the Beautiful. Alter the singing of an anthem bv tho choir the people departed peacefully to their homes, each saying to himself, It was good that I was here. The mem bers of the Reformed and Lutheran Sunday school call feci highly encour aged on account of tho grand success of their, festival, Inasmuch as It was the first of the kind ever cplebrated. O. P. S. Communicated Deeoratlon Say at Lehlghton. Our nulct town has foronce risen from Its slumbers, and like her sister and neighboring towns, observed Decoration Day with appropriate exercises. For the last seven or eight years this day was allowed to pass by without any such exercises, which are now so gener ally observed all over tho country. Students of history, and those veterans who wcro In line on Saturday, know well the trials ami sufferlnss of soldier life, they also have a better Idea of tho curse of slavery, as It then existed, and probably a fuller appreciation of tho results of tho war than our citizens In general have. The rights of slavery were founded on insufficient grounds and a certain writer has said thaf'tho air of this country Is too pure for a slave to breath:." Slavery has at all times been tho child of Ignorance and the mother of superstition. Our heroes, therefore, fought for a noble cause, and risked their lives for tho emancipation of these more unfortunate human beings. Can we, who stayed at homo and did our lighting In our narlors. now nas tlm graven oi our jaiicn ncroe3 on tins Hay milium suowinc in some wavourannre- clatlon for their services In that striu'irl,. Judging from tho turnout on Saturday there aro few In this town whose sympathy Is not with 'the soldier. Before the hour of parading, people flocked Into town from tho surrounding villages and iimusiiips so mat oy ine lime ot parad ing our town was well filled with people, All our Sunday schools, our surviving suiuii:ra,uim some oi our private citizens not connected with any of the schools were In line, which was headed by the Arlon Cornet Band. The march was up Bank St. to Pumpkin Alley, up said alley to Second St., down Second St. to Ochre, and then west on Ochro St. to tho cemetery. Tho exercises at the ccmetery,on account of rain which conv menccd to fall by this time, were cur tailed. After the firing of a salute, Rev. O. it. Look offered a short but vcrv annro- nriato nraver. Hnwna rnllnu-..,! i G. W. Gross, who favored the audience with an excellent address. Tho Rev. gentleman Is a veteran of tho war, and this fact, taken In connection with his address, shows that he Is a patriotic and deep-hearted man. After music by the band, on account of the unfavorable weather, the exercises wcro brought to a close. Much credit Is duo to all those wno iook part In the getting up of this demonstration, and by whose suggestion and direction the exercises were mainly gotten up. Tho writer of theso random thoughts hopes that hereafter when Decoration Day comes, Lchlghton may caci tiaua appropriate ior tno oe cas'n. R. A. C. The Deooratlon Exorcises Mit. EniTon: Allow me on the part of many friends and the writer to thank you most heartily for the success of tho paraue on Saturday, it was no small task to arrange and organize such a vast number, yet you handled the crowd with the case of an officer. Your cool, quiet and gentlemanly manner In giving orders along the march, was very pleas ing; a remark was made: "I am confi dent Mr. Morthlmer was n good soldier." There was another very gratifying fea ture, viz: tho cordiality and unanimity with which tho churches united. Wo aro free to acknowledge that they mado up the majority of the body In line. It was much larger and mado a better showing than the political demonstra tions. Tho affair had all the elements of a grand success In every particular, but owing to tho rain, after placing flowers upon the graves of the beloved dead soldiers, music, prayer and a few Inter esting remarks wo dispersed. Wo suggest, Mr. Editor,' that slnco your programme was not carried out, you arrango for celebrating the coming Fourth of July, invite tho gentlemen, who Intended to speak on Saturday, to deliver addresses; have tho procession march as on Saturday and go out to Ltnderman's Woods and spend two or threo hours In the celebration of our National Indepcndance.
