Easter week was distinguished by a num
ber of important w eddings. This is not an
unusual thing, for it is the general under
standing that there must be an abstaining
from all things of an earthly character lor
the seven weeks of Lent "Whether mar
riage can be considered an earthly thing, in
new of the popular belief that the sacra
sent is of a celestial nature, is open to ques
tion. Still weddings are regarded as frivo
lous, so far as Lent is concerned, and the
itrict observer of church fasts and feasts
llways waits until Easter before rounding
aut loving happiness at Hymen's altar.
Wednesday, Jlr. J. L. Dawson Speer, son

represented his legiment at Mt. Gretna for

A jieetino of the regimental commanders
of the Third Brigade was held in Harrisburg
last Wednesday evening. The meeting was
called by Generals Greenland and Gobln for
the purpose of discussing matters pertain,
lng to the brigade in rererence to the en
campments aud the new tactics.
The officers of the Fourteenth Begiment
met last Monday evening for the purpose of
starting a school for instruction In the new
tactics. Meetings will be held weekly in
headquarters, and a uniform scheme of
work will be decided upon. Colonel Parch
ment, the Regimental Commander, who has
been 111 lor some time past, is considerably
better.
Strong: efforts are still being made to save
the Third Eegiment from disbandment, and
a conference was recently held between
Governor Pattlsnn, Judge Advocate Rogers
and other prominent officers for the purpose
of settling the matter. It has been about
decided that If the Third comes nn to certain
requirements which will be laid down, it
will be allowed to live.
The thirty-flrst anniversary of the organi
zation of the First Regiment was oelebiated
last Tuesday by a street parade of the regi
ment, accompanied by the Veteran Corps.
The regiment appeared In tho new forma
tion as required by the new Infantry dilll
regulations and was probably the first com
mand in the State to appear in publio using
the new tactics. It was divided into three
battalions and made a very creditable dis
play.
At the recent meeting of the regimental
commanders of the Second Brigade, in this
city. General Wiley very strongly favored a
brigade encampment this next summer for
the purpose of instruction lu the new
tactics. He urged that regimental com
manders could gain manypolntsby observa
tion from each other, and possibly a uniform
system of work could bo decided upon. The
colonels of the dlffeient commands, how
ever, thought they would prefor to flght the
matter out by themselves, and weie unani
mously in favor of camping by regiment.
General G reenland also favored regimental
camps as being cheaper.
Although no orders have yet been Issued
relative to the opening of the season of rifle
practice for 1892, It is expected that it will
commence the same as last year on May 1.
aud that orders to that effect will he tssned
by colonel Osthaus this week. No now
ranges will be opened up by any of the or.
sanitations in the Second Brigade this sea
son. The three local organizations will
practice on the same grounds used last
vear, the Fourteenth Regiment and Battery
Bat Saltworks and the Eighteenth Begt
ment at Coleman station. The rental for
the Saltworks langes has been raised con
siderably over what it was last year, and as
b. consequence the battery will have to put
np $25 or $50 more than tho State allows them
for that purpose.
Colonel Osthans, the General Inspector
of Rifle Practice, recommends that the same
system be adopted in other organizations
for the qualifying of men as was put in prac
tice bv him when in charge of the work in
the Thirteenth Begiment. The Colonel's
scheme is that each company be divided into
squads of four or fivo men each with a non
commissioned officer in charge, and that the
non-com. bo held responsible for the prac
tice ana quaiincation oi nis squau. uoionei
Osthans claims by this means the work of
qualification is considerably lessened and
that the successful results attained In the
Thirteenth Begiment are largely due to this
scheme. The idea Is certainly a good one
and will no doubt be adopted In many com
mands all over the State.
It has practically been decided upon In
Harrisburg to stop enlistments in the Guard
on January 1 next, with the exception-of re
enlistments. Tho purpose of this veiy wise
move is to compel, if possible, companies to
attain a certain standard in preparation for
the trip to the World's Fair the following
summer. Tho National Guard in Pennsyl
vania has the reputation throughout the
United States as being at the top of the list
in effectiveness and standing, and it is pro
posed if possible to merit that reputation bv
refusing to allow a few green men to spoil
the maneuvers of companies and regiments.
The tendency always has been In certain or
ganizations to All up tho companies at the
last moment for the purpose of. making a
showing in strength at best, and it is Just
this trouble the authorities at Harrisburg
propose guarding against. The quarterly
leportswlll help very much to offset any
crookedness In this line. ,

The fair of the Woman's Belief Corps In
Old City Hall last week, was not tho finan
cial success that was hoped for. The indif
ference of the citizens toward this worthy
object was notable. It was remarked that
the fair was patronized almost exclusively
by the old soldier interest, the outsido citi
zens displaying wonderful apathy. The
servioesof the old soldiers to this country
should be remembered In a substantial way.
Great credit is due the women who worked
o hard to make tho fair a success. The dif
ferent booths were gotten up very nicely,
the meals served were worth twice the price
charged and the entertainments weie very
enjoyable. One of the most interesting
features was the relic department under the
care of Comrade Charles Holyland, or Post
1(52. Here were displayed some raro me
mentos of the Rebellion. The "art exhibit"
was vory good nnd wonderful ingenultv was
displayed in its arrangement. The iadies
will realize about one-fourth of what they
needed to piy off the indebtedness of the
Brookvllle Home.

Post 103' Enterprise.
Post No. 155 held an open meeting last
night at which the ladles of Colonel W. H.
Moody Cirole No. 62 and Colonol W. H.
Moody Corps No. 23 were present. The ob
ject of the meeting was to arrange for a
series of dramatio entertainments for the
relief fund of the post. The fund has been
considerably depleted by the furnishing and
fitting up of the new hall. It is essential
that it be increased up to the standard.
The following executive committee was
appointed who will have charge of the en
tertainment: Miss Alice B, Bollman, Presi
dent of the Circle: Mrs. Bobert Naysmith,
President of the Corps, and D. H. Speer, Com
mander ot the Post. The services of Mr.
Walter Osmond have been secured. They
will produce their specialty, "The Mountain
Hero," the evenings of May 5, 6 and 7.
Who Know Major ChlldsT
Comrade 8. W. Murphy, or Bennett, Pa.,
writes to Ths Dispatch as follows: "While
traveling through Virginia I met an ex-Confederate
Colonel, P. H. Hicks, who was
Provost Marshal of Pulaski county, Va., dur
ing the war. He asked me whether I know
of one Major Childs, who was from Pitts
burg and belonged to some Pennsylvania
regiment. Colonel Hloks was with Major
Childs when the latter died at a farmhouse in
Pulaski county. Hicks desired to let any or
Childs' relatives or friends who might sur
vive know whero the Major died and was
buried, and where the lemains may be
found. I thought the best way to get word
to the relatives or friends would be through
The DisrATCH Grand Army column."

In a word, our display of fashionable headwear is per

to make ir. The superior quality of every article turned out
from this department is well known. The vast assortment
shown is an advantage not to be had at any other store, while
the promptitude with which we execute all orders has become
proverbial. It is these features that have placed us'virtualiy
beyond competition in the millinery line.
We suit every taste, every purse and every idea. The
newest conceits in large and small trimmed hats, bonnets and
toques are shown here; low priced goods, as well as the finest
made. Whatever kind strikes your fancy you can always de
pend upon getting good value for your money.
Note particularly our nice line of Babies' Caps cutest
things out for the little ones. They will stand laundrying and
look prettv for a long time.
A WORD WITH YOU,
We have long been the acknowledged leaders in milli
nery. Other houses, while hopelessly trying to compete with
us, resort to methods that, to say the least, are peculiar.
Some dealers want to bribe you with a paltry present, others
in their frenzy to capture the almighty dollar make ingen
uously worded offers that must appear very ridiculous to peo
ple of good sense. We have never yet gone on the principle
that the public wants to be humbugged, and we never will.
Honest, straightforward dealing is the platform on which we
are proud to stand. On this platform we have
gained the esteem, respect and patronage of thousands
of families in these two cities. Our trade keeps on increas
ing and we make new friends daily. The old, legitimate way
of doing business is good enough for us disgruntled, jealous
competitors can indulge in "trick" advertising to their hearts'
desire.

son and family are the guests of Mrs. Edi
son's father, Hon. Lewis Miller, at Oak
Place. To a reporter he said:
"Phe plan ot aerial navigation undertaken
by the CosmopolyXan, I believe feasible, but I
hardly think the time for its consummation
has arrived. There are a great many stages
of progress yet to be , reached and sur
mounted before the idea of aerial naviga
tion can be an assured thing. I did not ac
cept the appointment as a member of the
committee to conduct investigations, but
consented to make any experiments neces
sary and give the benent ot my outnt and
experiments, providing they are not too
elaborate or expensive."
"Mr. Edison," asked the reporter, "what
is your idea as to an electrical display at
the coming World's Fair?"
"Individually I shall make no displav.
My exhibition at Paris was given at a loss
of about 560,000, and at this later date a
display would cost much more, with only
the honor to show for it after it is over.
The various companies, including my own,
will no doubt have extensive exhibits
there, but of my own work and inventions a
display is hardly probable."
In reply to the question, "How many
patents have you?" he said:
"Over 600. and in not one of them have I
been sustained by the courts. I have
spent thousands of dollars' in endeavoring
to maintain a right to my own inventions,
but until the laws on that subject are radi
cally changed there can be no incentive to
any fnventor dependent upon his invention
for sustenance to give to the world the bene
fit of his work."
"Along what lines are yon now conduct
ing your experiments?" ,
"Well, I might say in a thousand differ
ent directions. The electric light question,
I think, has been solved, and demands no
more attention. I am particularly inter
ested now in the iron ore business, and have
a 900,000 mill in operation, in which I ex
pect to pertect my ideas in that line."

Cleveland Bakqtg Powder Company:
Dear Sirs.-YoiL are correctly informed, Cleveland's
Baking Powder is in steady use in my kitchen.
After long and careful trial of others, I prefer Cleveland's Baking
Powder for several reasons that seem to me good and sufficient.
Cleveland's is a pure cream of,tartar and soda mixture, not con
taining alum or ammonia or any other substance deleterious to the
human stomach. Cakes, muffins, biscuits, &c, in which Cleveland's
Baking Powder is used, keep better. They do not crumble into saw
dusty consistency or harden into flintiness as they do when raised by
other powders that I have tried. A like quantity of Cleveland's
Baking Powder goes further and does better work than any other of
which I have knowledge. It is therefore cheaper.
I am thus frank in giving the causes of my " change of base " upon
en important question because I have been annoyed by comments
upon what is surely my afiair and that of no other person or parties,
and I am not averse to settling this matter, once for alL
On this account you are at liberty to make whatever use you like
