J The Johnstown Clioral Society, composed
i of some thirty of forty ladies and geDtlemen,
principally of Welsh extraction, arrived in
j Somerset on the noon train, Saturday, and
I spent the remainder of the day in plcnioing
in the beautiful grove immediately west of
the borough, and driving about the town.
In the evening they gave a couoert in the
court house, which was fairly attended.
They were a jolly party, and certainly en
joyed themselves, even if their audience at
the concert did not. They returned to
Johnstown in a s:ecial train, at the close of
the concert.

While in Somerset the other dav. .Mr.
Barnes stated that the route of the Harris
burg and Western railroad from Harrishurg
to a point in Somerset county, about a mile
east of the County Farm, had been adopted,
but that the exact line from that joint
west had not yet been definitely decided
upon. Before the route up to this puint was
finally determined upon, considerable of m
change was made, in the formerly proposed
line running through this county, and Mr.
Ogle is now securing the rights of way in
accordance with this change of route. The
last Hue run by the engineers crosses the
Somerset and Bedford pike immediately
west of the residence of Mr. Andrew Woy,
which is the nearest joint to Somerset, it
being about one aud a half miles from the

TisTdiuBcn RsromD. I your paper of Au
gust Huh yon give an account from the
above record which needs correction.' I was
present at the Centennial meeting of said
church, examined the. record referred to,
fouud a minute saying said church was or
ganized August 14, 1775, with no further
record or minutes for over ten years, per
haps beginning in 1787. In looking over
the pages of said record I found the applica
tion and reception of Robert Col born, Jacob
Bush and other into said church, therefore
showing that the persons named, or a large
lumber of them, were not members of the
church at its beginning but were subsequent
ly admitted, and by some person written in
the blank spaces between the first minister
aud the regular minister of the ch arch. I
know the Baptists do not wish to make a
statement that is not in accordance with the
facts, hence this article. So they may, as
they caaily can, by an examination of their
record, insert the dates of the admission of
perhups nearly all of said members, in order
that the future history of said ancient and
fable church may be correctly written.
A story was published in your paper some
time since, saying that a few of the followers
ofKoger Williams had emigrated to Tur

able to find any historical account of the
the same, and thinks it a legend.

was pleasant and the attendance lurge, about
two hundred and sixty persons being pres

abundance of candies, nuts, etc., was dis
tributed among the little folks. Rev. Rob
inson, of Donegal, Elder Knupp, of ,ljurel

gentlemen, furnished music for the occasion.
On the same evening, and on the following

The Johnstown Tribune is responsible for
the following snake story: While several
young couple were strolling along the wood

one of the ladies felt that she was being
squeezed, but said nothing altout it nntil she
noticed that the gentleman who was walk
ing with her was twirling his cane in the
hand she imagined was producing the pleas
ingseiihation about her waist. Oninvestiga.
ting the matter she was horrified, and her es
cort terrifiedto find a huge blacksnake coiled
tightly around her. Her "company" would
not go within a rod of her. fleeing precipi
tutely when she attempted to approach him.
Finally a farmer's boy went to the rescue,
and w hacked the snake on the head w ith
the but of a whip until it let loose. The
reptile was over four feet in length, und had
sqi.ieeqed the girl so tightly that several of
her corset stays were broken, and it is feared
that t wo of her ribs are cracked.

The weather has been unusually cool for
a few days.
The picnic season is at hand, and quite a
number are either past, or in contempla
tiou. The town of I'rsina has been annoyed
with burglars for some time past. Recently
one of those night prowlers received three
omuls, and when the justice, about whom
bo much is said in the Aleyersdaie cvmmer-
citit, came to investigate the matter, behold !
Hie was extinct. Everything except the
outer garments, which held a few old rags
and bundles of straw, in the shape of a hu
man being had fled for parts unknown.
A harvest-home picnic came off on last
Saturday, in what is known as the Andy
Mitchell grove, about one mile west of Peters
burg. This picnic was held under the aus
pices of the Lutheran church, and it was
under the special control of Rev. J. W.
Tresaler, who is acting as temporary pastor
of the Petersburg congregation. The weath
er was all that could be desired and the at
tendance was unusually large, there being
not much less than a thousand persons
present. The brass band from Brandon
ville, W. Va., the marshal band from Mark
leysburg, and the home string band, fur
nished most excellent music for theoccasion.
The exercises of the forenoon consisted of
good music and plenty of it, and about three
addresses or sermons don't know which,
by as many divines. When will the speech
making upon such occasions end? At the
proner tsuie it was announced from the
stand that there was a repast on hand, and
that it would be furnished in the usual way.
and it proved to be a sumptuous feast. There
was more than enough for all present, and
of the best quality. The best of order pre
vailed, and upon the whole it was a grand
success.
Josiah, a little son of W. F. Critch field, of
this place, was kicked by a horse that was
running loose on the commons contrary to
the ordinance, late on Saturday evening,
and died from the effects of it on Sunday
morning. Our borough dads had better
take timely advice and " look a little out."

well to consult the pages of "A Taradis
for ( innners and Anglers, ' a neat and handy
publication recently issued by tlie Passenger
Department of the Philadelphia, Wilming
ton and Baltimore Bailroad. This little
pamphlet finds the sportsman's paradise in
the Maryland and Delaware Peninsula, and
that section is exhaustively treated with re
gard to its hunting and fishing resources.
Xot only are all its birds and fishes discussed
and described, but their habits are descanted
upon, and their haunts disclcsed. Valuable
hints are a I so given as to the time and man
ner when gunner or angler may work with
the best success ; and explicit directions as
to routes and stopping places, accomjianied
by an excellent map of the section, renders
the work a complete guide book. The book
is handsomely illustrated with plates of the
principal species of game, aud is arranged so
as to be carried in the pocket with conven
ience. Such a guide book to a district so rich
in birds, water fowl, and fish must prove an
invaluable prize to the sportsman.

B. & O.'s Special Series. Some Idea of
What Baltimore will do.
There appears to be almost no end to the
novelties being perfected for the Oriole fes
tivities in Baltimore in September. It will
truly be as termed, a Summer Night's Car
nival, and certainly nothing like it was ever
before attempted in any city of the conti
nent. There will be electricity in all its
forms, arc lights 'and incandescent lights,
focus lights and flambeaux, torches in vari
ous colors, Oreek fire, calcium and gas, un
til night will be turned into day. The pyro
tecnic features will be on a scale of great
extent and variety, some of the set pieovs
promising to be marvelous in effect. The
whole city will be lighted as never before.
The different monuments with which the
metropolis abounds will be girdled by elec
trical bands, while the lofty and majestic
dome of the City Hail will be fairly ablaze.
Every avenue leading to novelty in illumin
ation is eagerly sought after, and old Balti
more will indeed show herself this year. The
night display in the harbor will be a gor
geous sight ; aud the arrival of Lord Balti
more something to remember for years. The
Mystic Pageant on the third night will be
yond all comparison excel anything of the
description ever attempted not alone in this
conntry but in any other country. Other
cities are content with from eighteen to
twenty-two floats, the latter nnraber being
the greatest ever embraced within one pa
geant in any city. Baltimore almost doub
les this, as her pageant on the night of the
13tb of September will include no less than
forty floats or tableaux cars, larger, more
imposing and grander in every way, than
ever before shown. Ordinarily the number
of characters introduced in a pageant is less
than one hundred. In the Baltimore pa
geant there will be two hnndred and thirty
characters upon the floats, every costume
entirely new and imported from Paris direct.
It will require thirteen ."hundred men, two
hundred and forty horses, over fifteen thou
sand gas jets, eight bands of music, and oth
er accessories in like magnificent propor
tion. The actual cash outlay tneoessary to
place the pageant upon the streets of Balti
more will exceed thirty-five thonsand dol
lars. The characters are assumed exclusive
ly by members of the order of tbe Oriole,
merchants and business men of the highest
standing. The special series of excursions
arranged by the Baltimore and Ohio are
meeting with undisguised favor, as they ad
mitof visiting to many places of great In
terest in addition to the Oriole at Baltimore.
As all the festivities in tbe Monumental
City are at night, the days can be put in vis
i ting Washington, Old Point Comfort, Fort
ress Monroe, Luray Caves, Harper's Ferry,
ar.d very many other points. The rate is
down to the very lowest notch, half fare
from all stations on the enormous system
embraced within the B. A. O. management.
Now as eur County Fair is a fixed fact, let
all take pride in making it a success. It is
not only the privilege, but the duty of every
citizen of Somerset county, to encourage it
bv word and deed. Iet it be remembered,
that our government calls upon us :to en
courage it bv authorizing the payment out
of our taxes the amount of one hundred
dollars annnallv for the holding of a fair.
The utility of such an exhibition must be
annarent to everv intelligent mind, buftice
i
it to say that more can be learned at such
place by the farmer in one day, than he can
learn at home in a vear. There we can see
and become acquainted with the best of
everything produced in the county. Stock,
fruit, vegetables, poultry, dairy, farm imple
ments, machinery ,fine arts, relics, cunosi
ties, etc, to say nothing of the renewal of
acquaintanceship, the good time and the so
cial culture it affords.
Go to Parker fc Parker's for pretty calicoes
and ginghams. Bleached and unbleached
muslins, sheetings, pillow-cases, table linen,
napkins, towls, and bedspreads.

Ck. By Tie lbs. Evaporated apples at ldcts. 10H IM
The above Is tbe lowest price at wMeh kvaporated apples have yet sold, and It la reasonable to
suppose the price a fair average. Evaporated apples are now selllna; in this market at 'ii cents a
pound. Counting six pounds to the busbel, this would make the trail wurth tl.to per bushel. Evap
orated peaches are worth 36 cents a pound.
Tbas any man owning an orchard can convert his fruit Into evaporated stock, eijna! to the best
in the market, and pay tor one of these machines four and five times in a season: Every tanner,
especially, ought to have one. We add two testimonials, given the company by farmers In Bedford
county :
