Thumpsontows, June 21, 1873.
Eilitur Si.ntiiu-1 : The Juniata County
Normal School at this place closed its
first quarter for this rummer yesterday.
I'rof. David Ilartnan, assisted by his
sinter, foist Lizzie llarman, and his pu
pils, gave a pullic entertainment last
iight, iu the Lutheran church, which was
a decided success. Although the wea
ther was very warm, roads very dusty.
aud admittance 25 cents, yet the church
was well filled by au appreciative audi
eiice, which netted the school about $35.,
which is to be expended in repairing, im
proving and beautifying the public school
rooms of Thompsontown, in which the
school has been permitted to hold its
sessions.
The exercises cotirirted, as usual, of
Original Orations, Declamations, Essays,
Dialogues at-.d Tableau, all of which
were new and fpicr. Several of the
performers exhibited really superior tal
euts in their respective duties aud char
acters. Mr. D. Lantz, in the three act comedy
entitled " The Dutchman's Ghost," cer
tainly performed his part of the Dutch
man with great euccess, as the roars of
applause indicated, which greeted him
neatly every lime he stoke. His origi
nal oratiou sul ject, " The Sciences"
delivered during the entertainment, was
a credit to him, both for composition and
delivery.
Mr. Krtider, whose home is about
three miles north of Mifflin, in the first
comedy of making love to three sisters
with a view of marrying the wealthiest.
acted like a real actor. He was perfect
ly cool, natural and ready, and was
greeted with much applanse during the
dialogue. He had also the honor of de
livering the valedictory, in which he ac
quitted himself as creditably as one long
accustomed to public speaking
Master Edgar C. Snyder exhibited the
wisdom of au experienced head in his
part of the evening's performances. II is
make up was quite theatrical and cute,
and his fatherly dictations to his way
ward daughters and their modish precep
tress took well.
Miss Clara V. Dougherty's lecture on
Woman's Right's" was a treat which no
literary miud would have been willing to
miss. Miss D's literary prospects are
very promising.
Another very pleasing performer was
Miss Sallie Haldeman, of White Hall
She seemed perfectly at home in her nu
merous characters, and, with a very plea
sant and womanly voice and manner,
without a single failure, added greatly to
the entertainment of the eventng.
Many others might be mentioned who
deserve praise, but time and space will
not permit. I believe with but one ex
ception, that of a deficient memory on
the part of one performer, all are wortny
of much praise both teachers and pupils
for the successful effort tbe entertain'
ment was.
The exereises of the evening were de
liehtfully interspersed with music both
vocal and instrtimental, under the super
vision of Miss Annie Wise, of Mifflin
town, assisted by several young ladies
also from there, and W. W. Fuller, of
Thompsontown Station, P. R. R-, with
his violin Very good order prevailed
all the time, and the audience manifested
the greatest interest in every subject of
the evening.
Mr Uarman and sister have been very
successful as teachers during the quarter
which bas just closed, and are well liked
by the community. They had a number
of pupils from a distance and expect
many more after harvest.

Open Air Te&ifbraxcr Meeting.
Last Saturday . evening - a public tem
perance and prohibition meeting was held
at the Court House grounds, at 8 o'clock.
E W. H. Kreider, Esq., called the meet
ing to order, and introduced Mr. Jamrs
Alexander Mowatt, of Brooklyn, New
York, to address the audience.
Mr. Mowatt proceeded to direct atten
tion to the questions cf temperance and
prohibition. He exhibited a map of
Pennsylvania, with the licensing coun
ties eolored red and the ' local option"
counties white. "License" covered 13,-
000, and odd, square miles ; "no license"
embraced 30,000, and odd, sqare inilef.
In 42 counties and 6 - chies agaiuet
license there were 50.038 more of a pop
ulation than in the 23 counties and 16
cities that voted for license. As to ex
teut of territory and population " local
option" had, therefore, triumphed.
But, he had been told that in Mifflin
town there Were men sealing liquor clan
destinely and making drunkards still.
The men who did so were rebels agaiuet
the laws of the State and the vote of the
majority. Jeff. Davis and the would-be
Southern Confederacy did no more than
obj ict to be bound by a majority vote,
and if let alone would never bave fired a
shot But the Northern States said "the
vote and decision of the majority must
be respected aud obeyed over the entire
Union ;'' and it took a four years' war to
enforce it. The rebellious liquor dealers
ought to be taught in the courts, by fines
and imprisonment, to obey the law and
the votes of tbe people. Every thor
ough American onght to insist on tbe
law and the votes of the majority being
obeyed. On that depended the safety of
a Democratic government. If hotel
owners in Mifflintown would attend to
I heir bedrooms iustead of the "bar ;" if
they would look after the bugs instead of
the beer and brandy, they could improve
their hotels very much. (Laughter.)
They had depended on the "bar," and
ueglected the boarders. "Local option"
would give ihem three years' vacation
f rom the ''bar" to let them have time to
sweep down the bedrooms and to get the
sheets and blankets washed. (Laughter
aii'l applause.)
The man who sold liquor "on the sly'
and seduced his neighbor's son into in
temperance for tbe sake of paltry dollars
and cents were ju.-t possessed of the
same foul spirit as he ho seduced hit
neighbor's daughter to her ruin. They
were both procuresses for evil and equal
ly guilty iu the sight of High Heaven
Young men, aud olJ ones, too, ought to
be ashamed to be found patronizing these
places, where the laws of the State were
broken and defied, aud drunkeunesa fos
tered and promoted. Via tuey ever
pause to consider the extreme folly of
paying a man at the street comer for
making them drunk 1 Why if they got
drunkenness a they might fever or small
pox, they ought to be ready to pay their
last ceut to be made sober. But it was
madness for a sober man to pay another
for making him drunk. Aud yet thou
nda of " smart" Americans did this
daily.
ihe lecturer then urged on all present
the duty of personal abstinence and the
wisdom aud justice of State prohibition,
and hoped they would all be found prac
ticing the one aud, as law abiding and
orderly citizecs, enforcing the other in
their county and county town. lie just
saw that day, iu the Sentinel, that
Cumberland county would now be glad
if ihey had voted for prohibition. Let
Juniata county, that had wisely so voted,
see that the vote is obeyed by lawless
liquor dealers and drunkard manufac
turers.
Tbe address occupied over an hour,
and was listened to with marked atten
tion and received with repeated laughter
and applause.

Closing Exercises at Airy View
The annual closing exercises of Airy
View Academy were acted on Thursday
evening last, iu the hall of the Academy.
A vast concourse of people witnessed
the brilliant display of talent, whose ra
diant splendor far transcends regal pomp
and pageantry; for whilst the rays of
the former reflect the magnificent gran
deur of extolled genius, the effulgence of
the latter is bedimmed by the baneful
odium of arbitrary power and tyranny,
The hall, which is capable of seating
about three hundred persons, was crowd
ed to excess, which fact, together with
the sultry and oppressive temperature of
the room, discomposed the audience very
much : but nevertheless they continued
attentive throughout, aud were richly
entertained until the close, meanwhile
plying strenuously the tinted Chiuese
fans, which presented a variegated pic
ture. ' . ...
The respective parts were exquisitely
acted, and in a manner very creditable to
those participating. A very commenda
bis feature was the .self-possession and
dignified culture the speakers evinced
which is illustrative of the thorough and
rudiments! teaching they all received,
and is also ominous of their future sue
cess in tbe battles of life.
This session ends the scholastic career
of many young men, having now stepped
from this farcial stage upon the graver
stage of real life, there to seek the ob
Art nf their soul's ambition, amid tbe

A Ridk with Indues On Friday
ast, intending to take a trip to Harris-
burg on board the Pacific Express, I
was amazed as well as delighted to find
myself, when entering the first car, to be
in the midst of Indians, painted and em
bellished with all the equipage of savaze
warfare. On allTides of the car hun?
suspended their arms, consisting of bows,
arrows,, tomahawks, knives, spears, &c
a
beir ears were adorned with ringlets of
a rude and artless nature ; about ' their
sombre necks beads buns; in great pro
fusion. They wore colored shirts, high-
festooned with Indian caricatures,
namely, beads, rings, 4c. Their legglns
were made of skins, and were secured by
thongs. The use of shoes was obviated
by moccasins. Thus Stirred, some lay
crouched upon their seats, wrapped in
their robes; others were sitting erect,
gazing intently. upon the novel and
trange scenery, in which their admira
tion was evidently very much engrossed.
They sat motionless andNmute and utter
ly regardless of what was transpiring
about them, not even a single smile steal
ing ovei their faces ; and on every lina-
ment of their countenance 'was stamped
indellibly that resoluteness and intrepid
ity which has won for them such noto
riety. They numbered twenty-five in all
twenty-two braves, two squaws and one
pappoose. The squaws were distin
guished from the braves, chiefly, by their
long, coarse and matted tresses, the heads
of the men being bare, except a tuft of
hair on the crown of the head. Their
garb, consisting of a long and shapeless
gown, was very filthy, and was orna
mented almost similar to that of the
n. But notwithstanding their sloven
dress, they wore a look so august and
majestic that it impressed the beholder
with reverential awe ,
Thus they sat, as dignified as statu
ary, the remnants of two once powerful
tribes, the Comanches and Kioways
Their destination was Vienna, - whither
they were being conveyed by an agent
of P. T. Barnum, for the exposition now
iu progress -there
If these wete true specimens of tbe
Indian race, surely the savage atrocity
and barbarity imputed te tbem is false
and unauthentic.

An exchange writes as follows on the
subject of postage on county papers,
which is as applicable in our columns as
in its own, with the change of name :
The new postage law which goes into
effect on the first day of July next, re
quires the prepayment of postage on all
regularly issued publications Bent through
the mail. Each subscriber of the Sen
tinel, by going to the Postmaster ct the
office where ho receives his paper on or
before the first of July, can with fire
emit prepay the postage ao it for the
next three months, or for tern emit, six
months. We would advise this ray
ment for not longer than six months by
all residents in tbe county, as doubtless
the law will be modified early in the
next session of Congress, so far as re
gards the circulation of papers in the
county where published.

ance of a house, but it preserves its
