Tho plcasuios of tho weoklwero programmed in pleasant llttlo gatherings and condudod Sunday evening wllh a farewell reception by the "Innocents Abroad" at "Camp Jalgabach,'1 whero a delightful llulo sup per was served consisting of Ico cream, lemonade and cake. During the evening pertinent addresses wero made by 'Squire Boyer, of Weissport, and 1'epresenUitiyo Evans, of Easton, and tho ladles responded in recitation and song. "Camp Innocents" are loud In their praise of CamrtMalgabach tho latter being composed of ladles, and the name "Malgabach" being a comblna. lion of the llrsi letter of their given names. The ladies are of Stroudsburg's elite socle' ty, esteemed, accomplished and beautiful and of whom that staid old town can feel more than proud, There are many plea). ant Utile Incidents connected with the qamp tlmt will long be a source of pleasure to recall, for instance Blery was dubbed LaiyneM, because it took him two hours to go for milk which soured before he re. turned; Levi was known as the -'devoted or model darker driver i" Goth as the dude and 'Squire Boyer as the Chinaman. But we take up too much room. Stiioi.lkk. HASK HALT.. OOSSII'. Audenrled plays at Ih-ifton Saturday. The Frreland club has re-organ I zed . P.

There was a street parade, lire works and a general drunk along the line. Banners ou which were painted "ll'o done up tho Dutch," "Le highton Is in the soup," &c, wcro numer ous. At Mauch Chunk and Lanslnrd tho enthusiasm .was great and all this because Tamaqua won a gamo from a club that wasn't playing ball. Such exhibition of hilarity Is pure babylshncss and shows an unpardonable prejudice on the part of thoso who should know much belter. 'J hero Is nothing rcmarkablo In Satur day's gamo outside, of tho fact that Lehigh ton never before played such miserable ball all around, and tliov owo their defeat by an amateur club not so much to the su perior playing of Tamaqua as to their own errors which ' foot up thirteen to tho visi tors ?our. Tamaqua played an oven game and had an umpire who Was "wid em" for ylctory as was evidence from tho complete dissatisfaction evinced by his unfair de cisions. , This alone, did not loose the game, however, and It would be ridiculous to maintain so, but It materially aided in tho U'atnrloo. The visitors came to con- quor, and their miserable tactics all through showed this, and particularly at tho time when Lehighton recovering somewhat were soaked by the umpire for all ho was worth. It Is useless to crltlcizo or predict, let it suffice that Tamaqua came and con quered with a team picked up for tho oc caslon from all the four points of the coal regions, hut with all this wo aro still wid em. The testimony taken In a divorso suit at Reading showed that while sa wlfo was nursing her dying child her negligent hus band was sporting on a toboggan Blldo with a neighborly widow, with whom he rode twenty-four times.
