tbey are all tbe mere worthy of any special

ANXIETY rOB OOOD WEATHER,
When tbe people el this place retired last
night It was with despondeney and gloom
wjitten en every counlenanep. Every
or E woman and child was consulting his
and tLweatBer oracle. Tbe sick, tbe Ibuie
aches anfi11 were Interviewed as te their
annuirh hAflllments te see It there was
warrant a ni'l'y n the atmosphere te
remetera were K..wJ&& n" -with
tbe weather bureau at Washington,
and the smallest favorable sign was big
enough te bang a hope upon.
At midnight it looked llke clear skies
and the day of all days was ushered In with
the regulation blare of trumpets, ringing of
bells and firing of pistols and guns.
Tbe town wears a holiday nppearance
and some idea may be gathered et tbe
decorations from tbe figures glven your
correspondent by the decorators, who lei loi lei
fermed us tbat ever ten thousand dollars
bad been expended In bunting Blene, te say
nothing et tbe cost of tbe frame work, el the
many arches. The display el thotrleolors
has never been excelled In any demonstra
tion In this state outelde et tbe larger
cities. Tbey are net only elaborate but
very numerous. Tbe town may be said te
be almost literally wrapped In the Ameri
can colors. Politics have been lest sight
of, and each vies with the ether in doing
honor te tbe occasion, burying all party
ties in a common centennial cause.
SOME Vt'JIO HAVE DECORATED,
Among sime of the mere pretentious d's
plsys are these et tbe houses and business
stands of the following named : ilen. H M,
North, L L. D., Geueral William Fatten,
Hiram Wilsen. Geerge W. and It. P. Hal

MaullcVs drug mere, Brtigh's drug store,
Cehen's shoe Btere, King it Ce's bakery,
Heekel & Palne's hardware store. Tbe Col
umbia National, Central National and First
National banks are conspicuous for their
handsome display of bunting. The Insti
tute building la tastetully decorated and the
opera house stands out conspicuous In Its
sarb of red. white and blue. Tbe Vigilant.
Columbia and Sbawnee engine houses are
veritable things of beauty, and in every in
atarce tbe fire laddies have fairly excelled
themselves In the art decorative Where
all bave used tbelr beat efforts te make a
creditable display it would require columns
of the Intelligencer te attempt te go
Inte further details.
TIIK AROIIFH
It tbe decorations of the many private
dwellings are beautllul, what words shall
we employ te describe tbe arches erected
across our highways. Tbey stand out In
their magnificence as conspicuous speci
men b of tbe professional decorator's art and
skill. As wu. leave tbe trains at tbe Penn
sylvania and Heading railroad stations it Is
te pass under two plain gas pipe arches
panning tbe streets with tbe word "Wel
come" inscribed en each, and also tbe dates
of the founding et the town and the present
celebration.
Let ustbroadeurway through the crowds
and draw a pen picture et the mere con cen con
pleueus arober, Here is one at Hiram
Wilsen's corner. It is tbe largest arch
ever erected In Pennsylvania. It Is a Joint
affair, and connects the banking beuse of
E. K, Smith & Ce , W. Berden's drag
store, tbe Urst National bank and
Wilsen's hardware store. Tbe spins are
eighty feet and tbe height sixty feet te
top of fiag pole in centre. It is gaily
decorated with banting and is very im
posing. Tbe next arcb, net se large, is
tbe Joint enterprlse rf several at tbe
merenants en the second blcck of
Locust street and connects tbe estab
lishments of tbe Baldemans and
Messrs. Heckel & Paine. It is considered
the most showy arch erected In tbe town.
At the opera beuse, connecting tbat build
ing with tbe store of Tayler Gable, is tbe
areb ereeted by tbe Centennlal association,
under tbe supervision of Siinuel Filbert,
our local deoerator, who directed the deco
rating en all the association's work. It baa
three spans and covers the street and two
sidewalks. It must be seen te be appreci
ated. It Is surmounted by a dome and flg
pole flying tbe Amerlean flag, and rises te
an elevation of fifty or sixty feet. It is a
massive affair and a bower el beauty.
OTUEn rRETTY ARGUES.
At tbe entrance te tbe publU park and at
the grand stand are two arches with "Wel
come " Inscribed en tbem, while along tbe
natural areb et trees In tbe park are sus
pended fi.gs, the whole forming a very
striking appearance. Tbe Sbawnea Engine
company nave an areh fronting tbelr house
wblcb tbey erected, and re fleets great credit
en their handiwork. It Is a massive con
cern, beautifully decorated, and will seat
Blx hundred people. Tbe Silver Spring
band discourse music from this stand.
Near the engine beuse tbe "boys" have
ereeted an arch of evergreens, constructed
of two hlokery saplings. It Is a unique,
as well as an attractive aflalr. At tbe
Columbia Engine bouse Is erected an arcb
of evergreens, and ene of like material at
the Vigilant Engine beute. At tbe latter
building two fountains have also been
erected and play water continuously. In a
woid,'betewn it a beautllul picture, framed
In the American oelora and evergreens,
THE MUSEUM
is one of tbe meet conspicuous features of
tbe celebration, and these who attend this
exhibition will be treated te aucb a display
et raretlea as 1. seldom ellered tbe public.
Tbe exhibit is made up largely from
rlvate collections, which only tbe
Igb standing of tbe committee en
abled tbem te secure. It Is held
In tbe old Haldeman building and is
mainly under tbe direction of Kev. F. 0.
Meran, B. D , and Mr. Theodere Urban,
Tbere are curiosities and relics te suit tbe
fancy of the most exacting seeker after tbe
rare. Tbere are old dishes, old furniture,
old garments, old pictures, old books, old
coins, minerals, Indian curiosities and wbat
net Tbe museum Is grea', and every bsdy
will want te see tbe display.
When one (Ires of looking at curies and
antiques, be may step next deer, and
tba Weman's Guild et St Paul's parish
will satisfy his Inner wants with geed
things. The feasting of our visitors was a
aarteua preMt-ia, and tat woman of tba

by opening a eaflee room.

THE CENTENNIAL ORATION.
The Hen. Marriett Brosius was Intro
duced by Hen. H. M. Nertb, LL. D , and
delivered the centennial oration. Tbe
orator began by drawing a comparison be
twenn bis own position and that of Leonarde
de Vlncl,whe hesltated te finish the famous
fresco et tbe last surper boesuse be bad net
tbe power te portray the face of tbeSavieur
or tbe face of Judes. In portraying tbe re
suits et our federal experiment two features
bullied him. Oue Is tbe unspeakable glory
of its success In promoting tbe growth of
tbe nation en lines of material and social
advancement, and the ether is tbe dark
incarnation et unwisdem wbleh, en ether
lines of progress, hinders our growth and
keeps us short of the ideal perfection other
wise possible under the beneficent princi
ples of our constitution.
I Invite you te-day te a consideration of
theso divergent phaes et our nstlennl de
velopment In tbe stretch of time oevered
by the splendid career of your enterprising
town.
My purpose is the mero apropos en so se
count of the conspicuous events oenneoted
with tbe adoption et tbe constitution, which
transpired contemporaneously with the
founding of your town. During the months
employed by Samuel Wright in laying out
bis farm In town lets, suiveylng tbem and
chancing them off, tbe oenstltntton was
ratified by eight et tbe thirteen states. The
day after the great lottery by wbleh 1G0 of
your town lets were disposed of eaeb ad
venturer.paylng fifteen shilling foraebanoe
the Empire state took her cbanee In tbe
Federal lettery and ratified tbe great
charter. It was during tbe twelvemonths
which witnessed tbe foundation et
Columbia, fairly and firmly laid, tbat Ibe
merits or tbe tcheuie BubmmSu- Sy
tbe Federal convention, made tbelr great
debate, wblcb was te tbe American Repub
lic the very "ridge et destiny," from wbleh
tbe fiery Federalist orators Uungtbesparks
et tbelr elcquecce, kindling tbe fires of
assent, in wnesa glowing beat was forged
tbe chain of consenting Judgment that
grappled with heck of steel ine ratifying
states and solemnized tbe birth of tbe
nation. Then, tee, our discussion acquires
an additional claim te your Indulgence
en this occasion from the circumstance
which may be remembered with melan
choly regret, that you came be neatly be
ing the District of Columbia, tbe capita' of
tbe nation. But for the happy solution of
two great problems of Btstetmansblpata
Virgin! dl iner tabic, who e two dls ln
gnished Btatetmen drowned their political
anlmeKllles in a glass of Madeira, your
flourishing town might bave drawn the
first prize in tbe political lottery of tbe time.
Tbe reasons given in support of your claim
ou tbe lloer of Congress may well stir your
prlde In tbe splendtd vigor of your infancy.
" It stands," said the eloquent champion of
Wright's Ferry, "en tbe cast bank et tbe
Hut quehannc, thirty miles from seawater.
As ter tbe river se gnat is tbe volume of
its WBtere tbat snips can, at any time of
year, sail up te tbe waters et Otsego lake.
It contains tbe finest fish In tbe world.
Three line rivers run into it from the
north, the vteit and eeutb, and but ten
mile separste it from the largest city et
America." Whether you would roeognirs
your town from Ibis description is et little
moment. It was a persuasive plea, but
argument could net then, mere than new,
withstand tbe convincing powerof a geed
uinner, aiueu ey me intellectual lllnmlna
tlen of a cheering glass, and tbe seat of
government was located en the Potemaa
instead of tbe Sutqeebanna.
Referring te anniversaries as occasions
for pausa and reflection, tbe orator spoke of
tbe eminent character, lierole devotion and
consummate wisdom of tl e Illustrious men
"who laid our keel and wrought our ribs of
steel" as a body of citizens "mero distin
guished for elevation of mind, dignity of
oharaeter, breadth of statesmanship and
exalted patriotism ever assembled In any
age or country. In tbe blgbest sense they
are dead and sceptered sovereigns who still
rule our spirits from their urns." He
graphically described the lmprecslve scene
in tbe Federal convention en tbe adoption
et tbe constitution and delivered a warm
eulogy of tbat Instrument. Turning
from tbe p;at te the future he declared that
our success depends upon whether "In
telligence, self restraint, principle and public
reason are able te maintain dominion ever
tbe forces with which the civilization of tbe
age Is complicating tbe problem of self
government. 1 here may be dangers tbst
can only be averted by an extension of tbe
field of governmental control. Te limit
the functions of the state within tbe lines
which clrcueiBcilbed tbem a century age
and expeets effective results would be as
great felly as te attaeh Stephenson's first
locomotive wbleh startled tbe civilized
world by running ten miles an hour te one
el tbe mammoth trains et modern railway
management and expect te pull the lead
ever the Alleghenlen,
Quoting tbe Declaration of Independenoe
and tbat el tbe rights of man by the national
assembly of France, be oenoluded that tbe
eltlzen should be intelligent enough te
knew when te give his consent and when
wisely te withheld It; and virtuous enough
te adhere te principles calculated te promote
tbe general wellaip,
"Te guide a ship by tbe observations of a
hundred yesrs age would net be mere per
ilous than te conduct this government of
00,000,000 with no greater lnielllgenee and
statesmanship than snUlced for a nation e!
8,000,000" Referring te tbe economic
problems tbst oentront us anl tbe labor
question, he was hopeful that "sound think
ing and solentlUe knowledge, aided by tbe
new national conscience tbat wilt bloom en
tbe stock of our second cniury,w)U doubt deubt
l6s be able te pluck tbe flower safely from
these nettles of danger."
Tbe orator dwelt upon the right use and
the abuse of wealth, tbe value of political
rectitude and personal honor, and in con
sidering tbe Immigration question deelared
tbat no man should be permitted te enjoy
our heritage who csu net become one
of us, but declared tbat as Michael
Angele found an angel In a block of marble
te be liberated by bis chisel, se In every
human block dumped en our American
wharves is Imprisoned a possibility of man
hood or womanhood, and wise are we If we
can take tbem from tbe pile and out of the
rude marble carve men el Intelligence and
power, women of beauty and plety, and
oltlzens et moral excellence and elevation
of character. ,
Leeking hopefully te tbe future be de
clared we bave only te remember that wis
dom end understanding are better than
rtebesj that Ju.tleewlU keeptbe betvens
from falling, and tbat tlghteeuanfAs still
exalts nations.

The third Joint debate between D. F.
Msgee, Democrat, et While Reck, and
JehnH. Laudls, Republican, of Millers
vllle, took plsoe at Marlettn, Tuesday
evening.
The leading Republicans of the borough
baring beard hew badly Mr. Land Is was
uaed up at previous Joint dleensalbna en
deavored te prevent the meeting.
A telephone message was sent te
Mr. Land Is' friends In Lancaster urg
ing them net te permit 'Mr. Lsndis
te visit, Marietta. Tbe question was
also raised that tbe meeting was unauthor
ized by the chairman of tbe Republican
county committee. Farther -te prevent
there being a meeting tbe Republicans of
the borough were notified net te attend.
Consequently there were very lew Republi
cans rresenl, Prof. Gelst, Capu Case and a
few ethers constituting the Republleia con
tingent The ball was two-thirds fntl of
Democrats, and the number would no doubt
have been much larger had net tbe very
bad weather and the Columbia oentennlal
Interfered.
Mr. Msgee opened the debate In an able
argument In favor of tariff reform, the
president's policy, the Democratic platform
and the Mills bill.
Mr. Ltndls followed in advocacy of the
exploded pretenses of the high tariff men,
much In the same tineas In his previous
debates. Tbe speakers alternated In twenty
minute speecbes, and tbere was net a man
In the room who was net convinced tbst
Mr. Land Is was entirely over-matohed. He
became badly "rattled," and, wishing te
make a point en tbe pauper labor of Europe,
he deelared thore were 29,000,000 paupers In
England! That Is nearly tbe whole popu
lation! In denouncing tbe Mills bill be
found particular fault with the reduotlen of
duty en Sumatra tobaeno; whereas, tbe
duty Imposed by tbe Mills bill is exactly
tbe same as under tbe present tariff.
Mr. Landls will have te pest hlmself bet

tbat bis torvleoa will net beauy further
required by the national oemmitter,
" 'ibis will leave you tree, my dear
colonel, " se tan tbe loiter, " te
make aoeb arrangements, as may please
you, wttb tbe different elate committee."
But this dlscharge of tbe voluble colonel In
political dlsgrace abuts him out of tbe cam
paign alteicethar. breause none et tbe state
committees will take htm up after repu
diation by the national oemiulttoe.
It la bis attitude en tbe rum question
wbleh, in tbe estimation of ttm party
mauagers, renders him werce than use
less. At tbe Republican sietoiceuvcntton
In Saratoga, when Senater Warner Miller
took the nomination for the governorship
and foreed upon his party a platrerm
rremlalug local option and higher license,
Ingeraell made the speeeh oeutalnlug tbu
widely quoted sentence about a Mississippi
river of whisky, with bauka of sugar and
tblckets of mint, and violently avserts tbe
doctrine of personal fuedem In tbe uee of
Intoxicants
Your correspondent te-day asked Good Geod Goed
loo wben Ingorsell'a tour was te begin.
" It will net begin at all," was tbe reply,
with a manner mere prepnant et meaning
than tbe words, "Colonel Ingeraell doesn't
find It possible te go en the stump."
In answer te a simllsr inquiry, Colonel
lngorsell said i "1 am net going te make
any political speech e. My tongue Is a
free one, and there wouldn't be any use In
trying te fetter It I should say Just what
I believed en all tbe phases of tbe campaign,
and that doesn't seem te be desirable or,
at all events it is net deslred."
