When the Y.'s give another entertainment they can depend on a good house. Fires are already becoming tiu merous in the surrounding forests. On Monday the side hill opposite towo received a very severe scorching, sup posed to have originated by a spark from a passing locomotive. Talk about game protection, one of these fires at this particular season wil destroy a hundred pheasants where the most persistent pot-hunter would Dot get a feather, and the law respect' ing forest fires ought to be rigidly enforced.

Jones, wife of Isaao Jones, of Fagundus, Warren Co., Pa., was born Nov. 17, 1837, and died April 13, 1890, aged 52 years, 4 months and 26 days, leaving a hus band and ten children to mourn their loss. Sister Jones was not only a member of the M. E. Church, but she was -a Christian, and although a severe suf ferer with inflammatory rheumatism for over a year, she was resigned and submissive to the will of Him who doeth all things well. She had bright experience and a happy death. She has gone home to be forever with the Lord. Truly may her children say, "1 bowed riowu heavily as one that raournelh for his mother," but I "sorrow not even as others which have no hope," for I know that "blessed are the dead that die in the Lord." The children, five of whom are married, were all at the funeral except one, who could not be preseut ou ac count of personal sickness. Her re mains were followed to their last rest ing place in Fagundus cemetery by a large concourse of friends and neigh bors, who will sadly miss ber, but they have tho consolation that she is fur- ever with Jesus of whom she spoke so often. . C. R. Thompson. Eighty-Third Battle-Flag. "My Story of the War," by that famous war nurse and gifted writer, Mrs. Mary A. Livermore, A. D. Worthington & Co., publishers, Hart ford, Conn., conlaios, among its many other elegant engravings, a colored plate representing the tattered remains of the 83d regimental battle flag, and gives this bit of history in connection with it, which we are sure will be read with interest by the many survivors in this section of that gallant regi ment. The book is now io tbe bands of subscribers, who are delighted with its handsome get-up and general ex cellence : In May, 1861, Governor Curtio ad dressed a message to tbe Legislature ot Pennsylvania, informiog that body that tbe "Society of tbe Cincinnati of Pennsylvania bad presented to him the sum of five hundred dollars, to be used towards arming aud equipping Pt-nusylvauia soldiers. The governor usked thaf the mauner of its use should be directed by statute. The "Society of tbe Ciuciunati" was originally composed of surviving soldiers of the Revolution, who pledged lasting friendship aud aid to each other. Washington was at its head, and MifHin, Wayne, Reed, and Cadwalader were members of it. Tbe gift thus tendered Io the slate of Penn sylvania was accepted by the Legisla ture for the ktate, and was devoted to the purchase of a battle flag to be car ried at tbe bead of oue of the Penn sylvania regiuioots. Tbe flag thus acquired Was present ed to the 83d Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, aud was presented to them while in camp at Hall's Hill, Va., by Hon. Edgar Cowan, Uuited States Seuator from Pennsylvania, who rep resented Governor Curtio ou this oc casion. This flag was borne iu the must des perate fighting at Gaiues' Mill, where the commander of Hie regimeut was killed. A few days later, at Malvern Hill, tbe 83d held a vital point in tbe Woe, and lost one hundred and forty four men io tbe struggle. Corporal Ames, tbe color-bearer, was killed by a bullet, which at the same time pierced and splintered tbe flag staff. Tbe flag fell, aud he fell upou it. It was picked up by Sergeant Alexander Kogers, wbo waved it over bis bead and gallantly advanced to the front of the regiment. During tbe most des pcrate fiehtine Sergeant William Wit- ticb of the 83d, seeing one of the ene my's battle flags lying upon the field, in advance of our lines, dashed out and secured the flag. For this act of heroism ho was promoted to a lieuten ancy, by order of General Porter, commanding the corps. berceant Rogers bore the old flair gloriously through a dozen bloody figbti, and was finally killed io the lirst day s battle in the Wilderness, oo the 5th of May, 1864. Finally, a new staff, and eventually a new flag, took the place of tbe old. It was still, however, the same valor-inspiring em blem, and wherever its star-lit folds could be discerned amid the smoke and carnage of the fraj there gathered the true and tried hearts, whose every beat was responsive to its safety and honor. In the battle of Laurel Hill, oo the 8th of May, 1864, the 83d was ordered to storm intrenched works strongly held by tbe enemy. The charge was fearlessly made, and some of the men succeeded in crossine the enemy's works, where they fell to bayoneting the foe; but the odds were too great, od the regiment was forced to fall back, with a loss of over one hundred and fifty in killed and wounded some of the bravest and most daring going dowo io this ill-advised charge. The flag on this occasion was carried by Corporal Vogus, who had rescued it when Sergeant Rogers fell at the Wil derness, three days before. While the regiment was charging up to the breastworks, be received a severe wound in tbe side, and fell with tbe flag. Corporal John Lillibridge of tbe color guard immediately seized it, and was about to carry it forward when Vogus recovered and, again taking tbe flag, pressed forward and planted it on the breastwoiks of the enemy. Io a few moments afterwards be was shot through the breast. Fear log that the flag might be captured, and more careful lor it than tor him self, be seized it while be was io the act of falling, and burled it to the rear, where it was caught by Corporal Dan. Jones. Jones was shortly after wounded himself, and, while getting off tbe held, handed tbe flag to soldier of the 44th New York, and it was soon afterwards returned to tbe regiment. The number of battles in which this flag was carried, as published io or tiers and recorded in the Official Army Registers of 1885, is twenty five. Jury LIstMay Term, 1890. GRAND JURORS. Anderson, W.
