THAT PKOSTKATE POLE.
It Has Been Lying Flat Since Teeaday !
In a former issue of the Intelligencer
some account was given of the tribulations
of the " best workers " of the iigutn
ward, and their frantic efforts te erect en
Maner street, a Garfield pole, llieymet
with one series of mishaps after another,
from the time they started out te hunt the
pole last Tuesday. They were en that day
caught in a heavy rain and nearly drown
ed before they get out of the weeds. Next
day, being unable te get a Republican
wagon, a kind hearted Democrat leaned
tuein one en which te haul their pole into
town ; but before reaching the city limits
the pole broke in twain and had te be
abandoned en the MUlersvillc pike. Then
a committee was sent in search of a splice
with which te mend and top out the bob
tail stick. In the meantime Mr. Speidel, the
owner of the wagon, bcinjr unwilling te
have it longer exposed te the weather, in
sisted en regaining possession of his prop
erty, and the broken pole was tumbled oil
by the roadside. Here it was spliced and
another team secured te haul it into town.
Yesterday was the appointed time te ele
vate it, but the faithful were slew in lend
ing a helping hand. The mere prominent
Itads refused te have anything te de with
it, because they had been cheated out of
their choice of a county committeeman,
and they openly said that if Gardner, Sny
der and company thought themselves able
te run the Eighth ward, they ought te be
able te put up their own pole. But they
were net able, and w they resolved te call
upon the great bridge builder, Capt. Mc
Mellcu, te put it up (or them. McMcIIcn
hapitcncd te remember that the return
tinkers and ballot-Lex stufTcrs of the
Eighth ward had, at the late
primary election, returned mere votes
against Tem Davis, his favorite candidate
for district attorney, than there were Re
publican velei. in the ward, and se he
gave them the cold shoulder, and like a
sensible man vi.i.l fishing for eels at Point
or Rocks en llu Conestoga. lie was per
suaded, hewcici, for a pecuniary consid
eration, te hiie hujder, Gaidner and com
pany his derrick anil a few of his men at a
dollar ahead, ai.d yustciday afternoon a
desperate attempt was made te raise the
slumbering hickeiy. Between 3 and 4
o'clock in the afternoon the tackle was get
ready and the word was given that she
would " go up in fifteen minutes." But
it was " no go." First
The Jmlt et the pole
Slipped out et the hole.
and went crashing through a beard fence,
coming within an ace of killing Frederick
Knlil, a young man who was assisting at
the " raising." Hundreds of Democratic
boys were looking en with mingled mirth
and pity, and generously elTcrcd te put up
the pole in ten minutes, if a Hancock
beard was put upon it. This generous offer
was declined and the Garfield squad again
went te work, liy main ferce they lifted
the top of it a few feci from the ground,
but becoming exhausted they let it fall
with a thud. This kind of work was con
tinued for several hours; the pole would be
get up a few feet from the ground and
then, Garlield-like, it would seek its con
genial "pavement."
During the afternoon some Democratic
boys of the Ninth ward, who had been out
in the weeds looking for a hickory march
ed past the Garfield stick, having in their
possession a splendid pole, which they will
elevate te-day at Jjtlic corner of Mulberry
and James streets, just te show that Dem
ocratic boys can de what Republican men
can net.
About 7 o'clock in the evening Mayer
MucGenigle, who had been visiting friends
in the Eighth ward, passed the prostrate
pole and was giceted with loud and long
continued applause
This morning, Bernard Snyder, a Re
publican, residing en Maner street, oppo
site the place where the Garfield pole has
net been put up, called upon Mayer Mac Mac Mac
Genigle and requested him te prevent its
erection as he (Mr. Snyder) is afraid that it
will fall upon and crush his house. The
mayor told Mr. Snyder that if it was a
Democratic pole and there was any danger
of its falling down he would see that such
danger was averted, but as it is a Repub
lican pole he could net interfere without
subjecting himself te a charge of "politi
cal persecution." He advised Mr. Snyder
te sec the street commissioner, who would
see that the streets were net unnecessarily
obstructed or neighboring property en
dangered. " Jesse Nye, " superintendent of
Eighth ward pole raisings," siys if the
Republican best workers de net get their
pole raised by G p. m. te-day, he will erect
it and put a Hancock beard en it.
A Garfield pole en the Manheim turn
pike a short distance north of the city is in
such a shaky condition that it cannot stand
alene ; and se its nurses have put a chain
around it and tied it fast te a fence nest.
Till: AMUSEMENT SEASON.
rienty of Geed Shows Coming.
The second number of The FoetUgJtt,
which made its appcarance this morning,
has a list of entertainments te appear here
the coming season under Jehn D. Mishler.
Among these which he has booked arc :
Aliee Oatcs, in a new pioce entitled "Leng
Branch, or Seaside Summer Scenes ;'' Min
nie Palmer, in " Our Bearding Scheel,"
and Oliver Doud Byren, in " Acress the
Continent." These shows will appear
early in the season and Mr. Mishler
has engaged the following for later
dates : Hartley's CampbcllVMatriineny;"
Mr. and Mrs. Geerge Knight in "Otte;
Robeson and Crane ; Neil Burgess in
"Widow Bcdett"; Gus Williams; "Pi
rates of Penzance " ; Jarrett & Rice's
" Fun en the Bristel ;" Mrs. Scott Siddons
in dramatic entertainment ; Fanny Daven
port in a new play by Anna Dickinsen ;
Jake Abcrle's minstrels, with forty pcople ;
Clinten Hull's " Strategists ;" Teny De
nier, in his new pantomime of "Tickled, "
with Grimaldi ; a company iu " Dr.CIyde,"
and a number of ethers.
In addition te the above shows a num
ber of companies, which will net appear
under Mishler's management, have been
booked, some of them are : Annie Pixley
in "M'liss." Buffalo Bill, Barney McCau
ley, Pat Rooney. Madame Rentz's min
strels ami Lcavitt's specialty company, Jehu
T. Ferd's musical comedy, Jee Jeffersen,
Mr. C. G. Heward in "Uncle Tem's
Cabin" and ethers.
It will be seen that both of thesa lists
include many of the best companies trav-
. cling, some of which arc entirely new with
the season, while a number of ethers have
never been here. The season will no doubt
be a successful one, and the number of
shows already booked is larger by far than
at this time last season.
IN THE WOODS.
Tta Steverdale Campmeetlac.
The fourth day of camp was marked
with mere spiritual enthusiasm than any
of the preceding:. At the early five
i o'clock prayer meeting and throughout the
day at the various praise meetings there
was a full attendance and a deep interest
manifested. At 10 o'clock, Iter. J. Yenng,
of Annville, preached iu the German lan
guage, U6ing Ezekiel xxxiv, 29, as a basis
of his remarks. He was followed in a
short exhortation by Rev. J. L.Pershing,

sang a beautiful hymn, composed in
memory of a minister who died while
preaching.
In the afternoon Rev. J. G. Steiner of
Sharoekin, preached from St. Jehn xx, 17.
Mr. Steiner is a young and premising dis

Brotherhood of Christ, " in a masterly
manner, and presented a discourse worthy
of compliment.
In the evening Rev. B. G. Huber, of
Chambcrsburg, and editor of the Hightcag
of Helincs, preached from Isaiah Ixii, 10.
He claimed that the standard of Christiani
ty could be placed tee high and then again
tee low, and lastly be presented the true
Christian standard. The effort was a
powerful one, and accompanied by the
Hely Spirit. Rev. Huber is a forcible
speaker and produced a grand effort en
this occasion. All the different meetings
of the day were largely attended, especial
ly the children's meeting.
Te-day Revs. Huber and Pershing made

IICATU OF MAJOIt JAMK8 l'ATTea.
Tite ISuslness Preceptor of Cel. Themas A.
Scott Dies at Carllsle, Pa.
The Philadelphia Recerd of te-day notes
that Majer James Patten, residing at 417
Seuth Bread street, in that city, died yes
terday morning at Carlisle, Pa., where he
had been visiting relatives for a few days
past. He was about 70 years old. The
deceased was a brother-in-law of Colonel
Themas A. Scott, with whom he left the
city during the heated term a few weeks
since. Fer several years past Majer
Patten had been an invalid, suffer
ing from rheumatism, which disabled him
te such an extent as te render him as help
less as an infant. In his younger days he
was widely known in this state, being
prominent in business and political circles.
It was while occupying the state office of
collector of tell en the canal at Columbia
many years since, where he also was
engaged in mcrcantile business, that
Colonel Scott, then a diminutive lad, wr.s
employed by him in his store, and the sub
sequently successful career of Cel. Scott
has always been a matter of pardonable
pride en the part of Majer Patten, as the
keen foresight and prudent business meth
ods, which earned for himself a handseme
competence for his declining year?, we re only
enlarged upon iu the brilliant eareer and
meat reputation of the famous railroad
magnate. Majer Patten was also ence
the editor and proprietor of the Columbia
Spy, and in these days wielded great influ
ence in the state. His funeral will take
place en Monday, at Louden, Franklin
county, where his wife was buried a few
years age. Majer Patten was well known
iu this county, especially in Columbia the
place of his former residence, and in Lan
caster city where he resided some years
age, bearding at the Grape hotel. He was
a member of the Presbyterian church, and
a delightful story teller.

factory, the crowd of a thousand people
inside the hall and an immense crowd out
side cheered Dr. Tanner enthusiastically
and he waved a handkerchief in response.
At that moment he had a peach in
his baud, but some one snatched it away
from him. He immediately drank a glass
of milk and called for the Georgia water
melon. He dug his hands into the latter
and ate heartily of it. When remonstra
ted with he Bald: "Ne, my lord, lam
running this new." Placing a glass of milk
te his mouth he said, "Gentlemen, you
don't bclicve that's geed." He left the
hall at 12:15 and was driven te the resi
dence of Dr. Gunu where he will undergo
careful medical i.inimcnt.
On leaving the hall the doctor walked

from the crowd, joked and talked with

gratification at his hearty reception.
Finally the attendants had t: held him
iu his seat, fearing a reaction from ovci evci ovci

down in the front parlor and endeavored te
Bleep. Se far the milk and watermelon
have net disagreed with him. Dr. Gunu
himself is ill through ever-exertion.

What the Masters liuve Te Buy.
Fnfi.ADEi.pniA, August 7. The report
of the masters in the suit of Tayler vs.
the Philadelphia and Heading railroad and

sition of the receivers of these companies
te issue certificates iu payment for wages
and supplies furnished pievieus te the
failure was filed in the United State8
Circuit court this morning. The report
says the ceuusel for the receivers having
stated that application has been
made hy several parties holding
claims against the companies who request
payment of th same, in compliance with
the decree of the court made en May 24th,
have asked the master, te cxamine and con
sider the entire subject of indebtedness of
both cempauies for materials and supplies,
and the issuing of certificates thereof
by receivers. The masteis express the
opinion that by the terms of the decree the
receivers arc authorized te make payment
of all sums due or maturing for wanes or
supplies, but as the mortgage ci editors
who might appear te be prejudiced by al
lowing preference te these claims arc net
actually before the ceuit their rights
are net affected. The decisions
in various railroad cases ate reviewed te
sustain the position taken by masters
who declare: "Wc sec no objection te
giving te this class of creditors the speci
fied certificates asked for." The printed
forms of certificates are embodied in the
report, and the masters say in conclusion :
"In addition te the facts which we have al
ready stated we report from the evidence
befere us that the amount due and matur
ing for materials and supplies by the Phil
adelphia and Reading railroad company is
about $1,2G5,000 te May 24, 1880, and the
amount due for material and supplies by
the Philadelphia and Reading coal and iron
company, te the same date is about 550,-
500." A printed form of certificates is ap
pended te the report of the masters, dated
