The annual gathering of the many neighbors and friends of the Cambridges occurred on last Friday at the Cam- bridge homestead, on Muncy mountain, This picnic was especially in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Earon, whose popu- larity was evidence by the large number of friends being present. Not having been there, we are unable to give parti culars but we were informed that about 300 guests filled up at the overloaded tables, and that speeches, recitations and songs were the order of the day, and that the Houn's James Schofield and John A. Daley were there, which is an assurance that the picnic was a decided success, Austin Hoover, wife and several child- ren, of West Elizabeth, near Pittsburg, came down from that busy, hustling place and will spend a week or so with friends at this place and vicinity. At present they are stopping at the home of Mrs. Hoover's mother, Mrs. Frederick's There are two nice young store clerks in town and the initials of each one's | christian name is Charley.

This is is a riddle and we'll let their friends unravel it as best they can. Our good friend joe Barton, who has been ill for several weeks, is able to be in the store again. Our Granger friend, S. K. Emerick, brought to A. J. Griest's store a sample lot of a nameless apple, which, for beauty, uniformity of size and flavor is not excelled by any of the well known varieties. It is shaped like the Ben Davis, above the average in size, green. ish in color, with a delicate red cheek on one side, and is almost curculio proof, just tart enough to make it high grade for table use as well as an excellent eat- ing apple. Misses Gussie Smith, of Bellefonte, and Pauline Smith, of this place, were kid napped on last Friday by ove Joe Run- kle, of Bellefonte; but he was captured on top of Muncy mountain and didn't get farther than the Cambridge picnic Oa promising to return the young ladies to their bome in the evening he was re leased on his own recognisance Our base bail team which was challeng- ed to measure bats with Julian team | at the latter place on last Saturday, met enemy at the time and place specified " ti challenge and literally “wiped floor’ with them.
