Is the line of snake - stories, so far:this
season the Huntingdon Journal "is en
titled to " take the. cake." The " hand

off the following in its issue of last week:
" A few days since a snake with two
perfectly shaped heads, one on each end
of. its body, was kilh d- on the farm of
Toomas Trout, in Antis township, Blair
county. Upon examination. there was
found a sort - of ring around the middle of.
its body. which Wink larger than any
other part, leads to the belief that two
snakes had grown together:" . •
THE Tioga County papers are this year
exceeding their record of last season in
rattlesnake stories. We maks it a- point
to always believe *snake stories, especially
it they appeariin - t he Wellsboro papers.

which we blip From his paper of last week,
*e,should sarthat while he was taking
in the 'circus the circus was taking him in
also. Really, we are sorry that it cost
our neighbor so much. to see so little
show. Ipt then experience is an excel
lent teacher. Our neighbor thus tells of
his mishap :
"It our issue of May 31st, We warned
'folks of ticket scalpers on circus day, but
instead of • scalping them they ;fleeced
them in this way : charging fifty cents to
enter the'animal tent, and after passing
into the circus part, (which was all under
one tent), another tifty cents is asked for
by . s, man claiming to be taking tickets,
thus.c*pelling one to pay one dollar to
sce thef whole business. This is the way
'they take the advantage of country peo
ple who are not posted in their tricks."

gain 'admittance. There was -nothing
stale, the jokes Were all hew and original..
The song and dance men .were fine, and
were loudly encored. In fact everything
was gbod and the company gave entire

from the fact that everyone spoke in high

our unbiased opinion, that, as an eclipse,
it was •a decided success, • In fact we do
not remenibei.of a more successful exhi

schedule on which the moon and shadow
were to run on that occasion had evident

manufacture of 'double, triple and quad

of size and strength. This is the latest
invention in this line of 'machinery. ' A
roll carding machine is also in operation

their work do ne while they wait if they

Sjiace will not allow us to criticise the
speakers individually. The dais that was
graduated this year was the largest- that
the Institute has sent ont for sevCral
years. The scholarship ,of this class is
high. Seldom will one see a group that
gives more certain indications of a bright.
future. We are sorry to say that what
would have been a most interesting com
mencement- was marred somewhat, be
causee the speakers had to be prompted:
We deem it just to say that Mr. Con-
SElt is deserving much credit for his good
articulation, forcible speaking, and most
p all for the. perseverance he has shown
inn overcoming an impediinent in speaking
that would have daunted many loss ener-
etic persons.
. The valedictory . address by Mr. Ihrox-
Sox was Well received., The instr+ental
music of the evening reflects credit
_both

• TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.
Last week tke Teachers' . Association
convened at Sayre, using the M. X. ,
Church basement for their meetings.
The rain prevented a large attendance,
but the interest was kept. pup by activity
on the part of the four score or more pres
ent. Professor Burgan, the President,
and 11. C. Green, Secretary, teak much
pains to have arrangements complete,
_and of course they succeeded. Professors
Ryan, Quinlan, Pitcher, and Benedict,
added to the array of talent, and worked
for the simess of the society.. Messrs.
Harding, Bovingdon, Marshall, Beverly,
and - ethers,..iucluding Miss Doane, gave;
practical work, and many joined in:
cip.sing various resolutions and questions.
Bev. Mr; Hood's lecture upon" Self Ctil
ture " was an interesting one, and Profes
sor lienedict's paper,, , " School Esthetics,"
wad the same evening, was gOogi. Sever
al recitations and Ceclamitions were in
troduced, likew s ise music - of exCellent
quality by the ,Church choir. Hon. 0. H.
P. 'Kinney, of Waverly, was present, and
added good suggestions at the'right time
and giVe explanations and instruction. J.
Ovenshire, of the Athens TownshiP
School Board, was also present, and took
part in diScussions. Thus the exercises
were varied and instructive throughout,
and we regret an inability to give , more
time to_their description. The Sayre peo
ple did everything to make their guests
feel at home, and after the lecture Friday
evening, the audience was invited up
stairs <-to partake: of strawberries,-ice
cream, fruits, etc., provided by Mr. How
aid Elmer,. of the SaYre Land yompany,
and spread by the ladies of Sayre upon
tables placed in , the Church anditorium.
It was a line ,social treat, and

The'llth regular nteetin of the Mutual
Muiical Alliance was held at South Au
burn, Susquehanna county, June 't i th and
10th` i inclusive. Notwithstanding t he fact
that 'it rained incessantly during the whole
tine,,there was an _attendance of about
40.. , The musical director, Prof. H. E.
Cogswell, of Scranton, and the pianist,
Miss Ida Pulls, of ISkinner's Eddy, were
promptly in • their . pla i ces at the first ses
sion. The people of! the place deserve
much praise for the kindness they showed
in conveying the singers to and from the
church in their commodions„hacks ; and
especially do the members Of the Alliance
extend their thanks to Mr. J..A. Man
ville, of (Towanda, who furnished them
with a very flue Schomacker gold strung
piano.' The concert, Friday evening was
very good, and in spite of the rain and
mud they took in over $3O. The audience
were held perfectly spell-bound during
the whole entertainment, which consisted
of songs, duets, quartets, choruses, dee
lamations ; and especially do we mention
the fine cornet and violin . solos by Prof.
Cogswell. The ,election of 'officers took

1 SCHOOL.
The closing exercises 'of the Graded
School took place Monday. Ity the )cind
ness of - the trusteesof the
.Preshyterian
Church a suitable room for them was-ob
tained, as their - church is the only one
large _enough, and even it was crowded,
or packed, with-a very intelligent and air
preciative audience. At 2:31Y the exer
cises, began, the 'tkehool being formed in
the basement marched to piano music up
the stairs at tliti side of the pulpit and
around by the Miter aisle to the opposite
side and formed iiiiront of the altar in
. fotirlines. At the` close of a short, im
pressive prayer byTev. A. W.,1100n they
sang a greeting glee, by MYERREB, and
countermarched t% seats reserved for
thdm. Misses Opte. M.,HEATIL NELLIE
E. SPALIONG, LOLA,M. WILSON and LOT
TIE.E. GRAY and raster ALGIE A. KAT
ons recited well chosen selections in a
manner'creditable to themselves and an
honor to - their teachers. Again the lichee)
formed as before taal sang a chorus, "Oh
'Rright Merry Smiles," in a cheerful man
ner pleasing to all. Then followed dec
lamations by older pupils who rendered
their selections with . force and native
Modesty that betokened an 'interest in
their subjects and-not a thought of self
display.' W. Cam° GruEEN spoke !‘ Touis
sant L'Overture," FANNIE H. KIRBY re
cited "Cobbler Keezer's Vision," and
--Nirrq..il3.SPEAR "Bernardo del carpio,!'
then FRANK MCMAHON rendered "The
Death-Bed of Eenedict Arnold." in an
impressfi r m manner, the subject being one
full of stirring interest as the history of
his first honors and ,final disgrace appear
before the dying man.: ThiS closed the
recitations, the remainder of - thoi speakers
having prepared their remarks or orations
themselves. Miss MARY E. MORLEY ren
dered an instrumental solo, " Raindrops
at Eve,," very nicely. Then. began the
exercises of the graduating class, whose
motto, " Suaviter in ntodo, fortiter in re."
(gentle hi Tanners, but resolute in deed),
is a fitting one. We have, not space to
give_ extracts of each oration, but we
could, by so doing, convince all that they
were worthy thoughts of la good class.
The first, entitled "11411 Aims," was
by FRANK POTTER, the second, "Self
-Reliance," by WILL. 11Favaxxit, and
third, "Industry, the Key to Success," by
i
F‘l a:ss L. EASTABROOK. AnotheichOrus,
i
r: ,
" Smiling Face for Me," followed,-and
.Itli i ss' BUM COLEMAN read au essay en
titled "Heroism." The young lady gave
to the sitbject importance second to none
in character, and in welt ehosen language
defined •thl. meaning of - the term. She
place.l loiifof country second to only one .
noble sentiment, and that the love of
God, and to the heroes who have died in
defence of the principle„" religious and"
political freedom," she gave high praise.
The essay was well' read and contained
noble sentiment. GEo. L. EgSTADROOK
yead-au oration, " Power tg Habit,"_ and
closed with the Valedictory. His subject
was well treated, and we thought,; as we
listened to the remarks, "an evil 'habit is
easily acquired and good onos,easily loSt,',
.that many citizens-of this town do not
consider the importance of teaching their
children habits of good morals;
. and
others, who like to see society advance,
yerencourage habits ofevil by providing
amusements unworthy an enlightened
people. The contrast between the child
ren present and those who;neglect schools
ought to be sufficient, to call a halt and
institute reform. The closing .remarks
were kind and of a nature to cause the
tears to start to many eyes, and evinced a
vein of deep feeling in the speaker.. The
Principal, Prof. BENEDICT, then in a few
words of encouragement and respect, con
ferred diplomas upon those above men
tioned belonging to the claw of graduates.
In behalf of. the the board of directors he
thanked the trustees of . the Church Jur
their kindness, and Mr. C. T. Hutt. for
taking charge of the musical arrange
ments, and all for assistance, attention
and attendance. Miss jimsta - A. Cow Las
pOsided at, the piano. in. an_ _nay and
graceful manner, rendering marches, etc.,'
in exact time. The last song was sung,
:" TWO - lour of .Partii — ig;" and Roy. Mr.
WATROUB pronounced a benediction; fol
lowed by a march, to the strains of which.
the pupils who had taken .. part either in
singing or otherwise, marched out by the"
