THE CHILDREN
MADE HAPPY
BAUER'S SAND GAVE ITS AN
NUAL CONCERT.
It Was One of the Trent Colonel E.
H. Ripple at Intervals Gave to the
Little Folks Who Are at the Har
ford Soldiers'Orphan School Num
ber of Persons Accompanied tho
Band from This City and Spent a
Very Pleasant Day.
The children at the Harfoul school
for the nt plums or soldiers yeslntdny
enjoyed the annual concert of Biiuet-'a
band, which Is one of the tteitts Col
onel K. II. ttlpple nt Intervals gives to
the children of the school.
The band, nccompanled by many of
Its friends, pet-sons Inteiested In tho
school nnd former pupils, left this city
yesterday motnlug on two special ctrs
attached to the !i o'clock TX-lnwnre,
I.acknwnnna and Western train. When
the train arrived at Klngsley, .1. K.
Mathews, superintendent of the school,
was present w lib wagons nnd the pai ty
was conveyed to the Orphans' school,
which Is situated high among the hills
of old Susipiehantm county, thtee miles
from Klngsley -Mutton.
The buildings are on a hillside, l.DOO
feet above sea level, with a valley of
faun and woodland stretching as far
as the eye tan teach fiom north to
south. The tnnge of vision to the north
ends where the noble iOlk mountain
rears Its lofty head skyward, shutting
from view all that Is beyond.
Yesterday was clear, sunshiny anil
delightful on the hills at Hat-foul, a
gentle lueeze, sufficiently tempering the
rays of the sun to make life out of
doors pleasant In the extteme. It was
one of those rare clear June days, with
no suspicion of haze llngciing on the
hotizon. Klk mountain, so ptomlnent
n feature of the landscape, seemed but
a twenty minutes walk distance, nnd
some of the ambitious pedes tilani-c of
the party suggested a trip there after
lunch. When Mr. Mathews Informed
them that Kilt mountain was sixteen
miles away, as the crow files, the am
bitions ones decided to postpone thu
visit to the Klk until another time.
A SAI.I'TK FlItKD.
As the visitors approached tho school
the pupils were drawn up on the lawn
and the boys fired a salute fiom the
highly polished brass cannon, which Is
a great source of pride to the boys. The
fot mal teeepllcin cuer, the chlldten
surtounded Colonel Hippie. He is ttuly
a father to these little wauls of the
slate, and fiom them receives a father's
love and a father's confidences. His
visits to the school are always ovente
which the chlldten look forward to with
Joy.
"The soldieis' orphans of Pennsyl
vania have no bettpr friend than Col
onel Hippie," s.Hd Superintendent Math
ews ynstnrda. "His intetest In their
welfaie Is -wonderful, and the number
of his kindnesses to them will never be
known."
Colonel Hippie was accompanied yes
terday by Sirs. Hippie, who shared with
her husband the attention of the little
ones. She has been for years a fre
eiuent visitor to the Institution and has
greatly endeared hetself to the chil
dren by her thoughtfulness and kind
ness. The buildings used for the purposes
of tho school aie historic. Hurt a
century ago they wore the scene of
one of the best known educational
institutions within a radius of one
hundred miles. It was Fianklin acad
emy then, and within the walls of
its humble buildings some ot the
country's finest minds received their
education nnd In some Instances the
entire mental equipment with which
they went out to meet and conquer the
world. Some of the men today allvo
and prominent figures in public affairs
who went to school there tiro
Chief Justice .1. H. MoCoIlum. of
the state Supreme court; Congress
man c.ialusha A. Grow and former
Governor Carpenter, of Iowa. Others
educated there were tho late Justice
Williams of the Supreme coutt, and
Congressman Charles Ruckalew, of
Bloomsburg.
WHKX KSTAI1LISHKD.
Thirty-six years ago the state
bought the academy buildings and os-.
tabllshed the Harford State Orphans'
school, from which countless young
men nnd women have been sent to
letlect honor and credit on the stato.
which manifested such a paternal In
terest in them during their early lives
when, deprived of their natural pro
tectots their need of the assistance
the sttite gave them was great.
If the buildings at Harford are old
nnd tho opposite of modern, they aie
scrupulously neat nnd clean and aio
mhde its comfortable as their condi
tion wilt allow.
Children are admitted to the school
at the age of fi and kept there until
16 yeais of ago. When It is possible
to do so, the children ate transferred
to the school at Scotland, Franklin
county, as soon as they reach the age
of H, and allowed to spend two years
In tho Industrial training department
of that Institution. The Scotland
school Is constantly crowded anil It Is
not possible to give nil of tho liar
ford chlldten tho benefit of two years
thete.
At present there nro 2S0 ohlldten In
the Harford school, 100 girls and i:iu
boys, Seven of these children were
deprived of their fatherr-l by thu
Spanish-American war.
Superintendent Mathews Is In gen

Prof. 11, n, ("St ess has charge of tho

testilts achieved at the school ure of
a high order.
tub nnys HAND.
One of the features of the school
Is tho boys' brass band. It Is com
posed of youths ranging from ten to
fifteen y?ars, who are instructed by
Prof, Robert Bauer, who makes week
ly trips to Harford for that purpose.
Tho degree of proficiency the band has
attained Is a marvelous tribute to his
patience mid knack of Imparting Ideas
about music to the children. Tho
band gae two concerts yesterday for
the benefit of the tailors, and
charmed ami delighted the Scran
tonlans, none show-ins warmer utim-c-
elation than the members of Bauer's
band.
After the party arrived in the morn
ing some time was spent In the In
spection of buildings and grounds, nnd
after dinner the boys formed In com
panies nnd went through tho manual
of arms vMh their little rifles. Later
they gave a dres parade. Tho lieu
tenants and captains of the company
are selected from among tho boys of
the school, The drill nnd dress pnrocle
would hnvp done credit to any grown
body of soldiers,
Following the dress parade there was
a fine concert by nailer's band on tho
lawn in front of Superintendent Mnl
thows' hoiie, which was listened to
with very evident pleasure by tho chil
dren as well n-s the visitors. After
the concert tl'ero was a ball game be
tween the school nine and the mem
bers of nailer's band, which resulted tn
favor of tho boys by a score of 10 to 0.
The band men put up a sllrt article of
hall, but pven tlie phennmonnl pitching
of "Chin ley" Moore, or the coaching ot
Prnssor wove not sufliclont lo enable
them to take tho game from the or
phans. CO.VOKHT I-5V HOYS,
The boys' band gave n concert after
tho game, the musical part ot the day's
exercises concluding with the rendition
of two numbers by the combined
bands. The playing of the bunds was
Interspersed by songs and recitations
by tho chlldten,
Supper was served at o.flO, anil at 7
o'clock the members nf the party
boarded their train nt Klngsley nnd tin
hour Inter reached this city.
The commencement exercises of the
school were held Tuesday, Juno 11. nnd
It will close on Friday for tho summer.
Forty or fifty of the children who are
without homes of any description will
remain at Harford during the summer.
The olhets will bo allowed to go to
their people. As an evidence of the
healthful location of the school and the
care taken of tho children It Is worthy
of note that there hns been but one
death there during the last four year's.
One nf the members of yesterday's
party was Dr. W. K, Allen, whoso
father for ninny years owned and lived
In the building now occupied by Super
intendent Mathews. While the doctor
was studying medicine ho made fre
quent visits to his father's hmnc, which
was within a mile of the llrst settle
ment made in that part of the state.
The colonists came from Massachu
setts and mnny of their descendants
still live in that region.
