    THE SCBANTOJT TRIBTJinE MOJfDAY MOBNENT. J AWTTATtY f, 1896.
GARBQNDALE.
. THE MOZART'S TO JOIN.
They Will Probbbla Conduct tha Fair
with tha Firemen. , .
The Mozart band will probably join
Wiin me Vlfiuilium nunc uuiii&i.v ...
the fair which thu company jiropoites to
hold during the latter part of the month.
At a meeting of the band a committee
compoiied of MeKHrtt. Ackerman lloem
melmeyer. and Kennedy was apiolnted
to confer with the company and And out
if they were willing to Join the two or
anlzatloiiM In the enterprise. The
committed of nf firemen who have the
affair in charge are Mesnrs. A. U 8ahm,
P. R. Blair. T. Flnnerty. J. J. Nealon,
T. t.'oughlln. C. K. Blnlr, Harry Booth.
John Brennan. J. M. Nealon. Oeorge
Kd wards. John Lnftus, John Moftltt.
The two committees will meet within
short time and arrange the details
and different features of the fair. It Is
not yet known where the fair will be
held. Some are in favor of Burke's
hall, while others want ". V. Watts'
hall. The probabilities ar that Burke's
hall wll be chosi-ii. The fair will prob
ably be one of the most popular ever
held in this city. The fait that the
Mozart band will furnish the music
makes this an assured thing.
BASE BALL AGAIN AGITATED.
Another Attempt W ill lie Made to Form a
Club in i:arhnndalc.
Base ball Is not yet dead In this city
and another attempt- will probably be
made toward establishing a club to rep
resent this city In the stnte league next
season. . The team lust season w as nol
fully upppt-eciated. us it will be if it is
now given up.
The trouble about the franchise need
not cause Hiiy more trouble, as ussur
Alices have been made that a new fran
chise fur the club can be had from the
state league, and any trouble with the
Traction couciany can be averted ny
having the games played at Alumni
park instcud of Anthracite park.
(This arrangement would he better In
mine respects, as the situation of Alum
ni park Is better than Anthracite, situ
ated as It is between Jorniyn und Our
londule -it would bring people from
both places, while Archbald would also
send a number. Then as mere Is no
hill overlooking the park the many
dead-heads would be avoided. The ex
penses of the club would probably be
about 13.444 and half of this has already
been subscribed by citizens. There will
probably be another canvass made soon
with, the view of having the games
played at Alumni park.

respond but the strong west wind which
was blowing at the time fanned the
flames so furiously that efforts to con
trol the fire were of no avail. Within

to preach in a southern parish, and while
walking across the fields met a furm la
borer, who in the course of conversation
nam ne was a 1'iseopai.
The clergyman was glad to hear It. and
asked If he belonged to the parish, to
which lhe laborer answered that he "didn't
knaw."
"Then what diocese do you belong to?"
was the next question.
"Ther' oin't nnwthln' like that 'round
here, replied the other.
"Who confirmed you, then?"
"Nobody," answered the laborer.
"Then you are an Episcopalian?" asked
the clergyman.
"Well," was the reply, "you see It's this
way: Lust winter I was a-visltln' u friend
and while I was there I went to church,
and it was called 'I'lscopal, and I heard
them say that they 'left undone the things
what they oughter done, and they'd done
some things what they oughten done.' and

Racing Team says, " I have been
taking Bovinine while training,
am surprised at the strength and
renewed vigor I derived from its
use. It is grand to take after
hard riding, as it very soon re
stores the life you lose at such
times."
Bovinine
is strictly., and solely a food
stimulant, prepared by a special
cold process from lean, raw beef.
Its great blood and flesh creating
qualities combined with the ease
with which it is digested, makes
it invaluable as a restorer of
depleted tisues, and as trength
maintainer in all cases of exhaus
tion, whether caused by disease
or over-exertion. All Druggists.
