D. A. Harma, Principal. The Free School Entertainment Last Jtnday Evening. The first tine niece our school days that we attended an entertainment by Free school scholars was on tbe even ing of tbe llthl, in Graybill's Hall. That was the tim, and that was the place designated by the teachers for holding the annual entertainment of the 4 Free schools of Mifflntown, taught respectively, by David A. Har tnin, principal. Miss Liziie R. Ilar nian. O. Holmes Uysroger. Migg Clara V. Daugherty. There was a mariner in the Hall at the time we entered that was different from that usually heard in large audi ences, which required a thought of in quiry to understand that its peculiarity was owiug to the voices of children mingling with voices of grown people. There was abundant time to look over the audience, as attention was not immediately drawn to the stage, as is generally the case on entericg play rooms, for there was nothing doing on the plalform that could be seen; the curtain was dowc. We took a seat with a self congratulatory feeling that we bad arrived early, and was in' to see and hear all, from the beginuing. It was a vast audience, that is when tbe capacity of tbe room is considered. There were six to eight hundred peo ple present on this occasion, all told, big and little. bile there was a peculiar murmer in tbe audiance during pauses in the entertainment, there was also on its face a singular expression, it wts plain tbat it was full of tbe most pleasant anticipations. It looked for all the tbe world as if seated to a ban quet of tbe uiiud and heart, who will say that it was Dot.! The audience was not there, in a cynical, critical frame of mind; it was evident tbat it was ready to receive anything and everything from the per formers, just as presented, without a word of discount: taking all at a pre mium, for it realized in the play of the boys and girls tbe reflection of its own performances in by-gone-day j. The mind could not be disappointed with such an entertainment, and tbe heart went out full to the young per formers in the purest affection, for they were kin folk'. It was a happy time. All were hap py, ihe children were happy, in pre paring for the great drama of every day lite. Parents and kiu-tolks were bappy in seeing themselves as tbey were seen in girl and boyhood days. It was indeed a banq'iet for the mind and heart. Perhaps a few were there who felt like sajitig "Much learning bath made tbe mad" or that "A little learning is a dangerous thing." If they were there tbey were so overshadowed tbat they were ceither seen or felt. Such observations bad scarcely im pressed themselves, when tbe curtain was drawn and a dialogue announced. It was called "Playing School," Its lo cation on tbe programme indicated to a certainty tbat instead of being in as a spectator for the whole of tbe enter tainment we had airived (oo late to witness a number of "pieces," tbey had already been said and played. The dialogue was hig'y enjoyable, and most everybody felt as if they were once more atteuding school. These are tbe names of the players, Lizzie Magonig'.e, Belle Derr, Mag gie W'eller, Ettie Fasick, Coda Simons, Ada West, Andrew Parker, Harry Konsall, Oscar Poty, Stewart Kllis, Darwin Crawford, Cloyd Pannabaker, David Slaughterback, Eddie Watts, Lewis Deen, John Ellis, Seward Mu thersbaugh, Harry Meridian, William Remffer, Harry Haller, (Jeorge Hef flefioger, Ira Wilson, Milton Iticken baugb, Philo Panabaker. Tbe school was dismissed, and suc ceeded bv a Tableau, the name of which indicates, what all should do in the evening, namely take a "Light Sup per," Everybody thought the Tableau pretty enough to have been gotten up by Titania, Queen of the Faries. It was so vanishing and fairy like, that it passed as a sunbeam, and was gone almost before it was seen. Those who tableaued were Miss Bertha Kepuer, .Jennie Loudon, Junia Paunebakcr, Clara Deen. Tbe next was a declamation" L t tle Boy's Speech" by Charley lilack welder. Tbe title ui'ght have been changed to "A Speech by a Little Boy." He looked like a mere speck on the platform. He said his piece well, and everybody felt like giving Charley a kiss. Charley withdrew amidst a mur mur oi approving merriment, and was followed by a Minor Drama "Two Beggars" by the following pupils : Lula II. Caveny, Ellie Haller, Tillie M. Loudon, Daisy Simons, Katie C. Goshen, Mary E. Heck, Mollie Kreider, Bella Til'-en, Louie Loudon. The whole play was well rendered, but the crowning feature wag found iu Granny McBride. The attitude, the cap, tbe white shawl across the shoulders and tied at the waist, the whole appearance of drees and de meanor revived in mind the grand mothers of " Au'.d Lang Syne " days. There was an act that was frequently repeated that created the suspicion that the being ensconsed in Grandma's clothes was not Grandma, bat some rosy eheeked girl, and tbat was when she spun," she as often turned the" wheel backwards aa forwards.- Grand Mas' don't do such tilings you know. Who knows but that tile act waa thrown in on purpose t Tbe "Two Beggars" was folkwed by TaMtau. "The Old Corn Crib" . which was, simply an old boot on a stand, The old boot was lurried out, and the pleasant song, "She Sleeps in the V al- ley too its place. The song reached an end and with Its melody died away to give place for a dialogue, called "The New Scholar , which was a pleasant little play, participated in by tbe following scholars Flora Kepner, Minnie Willis, Tillie Creswell, Bertie Haller, Katie Etka, Katie Stroup. Thenext piece was a declamation, The Smack in School, by Andrew Parker. Andrew's speech was follow ed by Mi?a Minerva Harman in an Es say on "The Closing of the Year." Miss Harman, had scarcely commenced to read, when the lights began to fail; there was something wrong with the gas apparatus; slowly, but as surely as fate itself tbe lights died out. There waa gbastliaesa about the slowly de clining light tbat in fancy seemed like be dying raya of light tbat flicker on the border of the "Valley of the Shad ow of Death," A real sense of danger did not foeess tbe mind, but there waa an uncertainty atout the manage ment of tbe gas tbat was exceedingly unpleasant. - After an adjustment of the ga "machine " the lamps were relit and the entertainment continued. Frank Wevgantte succeeded The Clos ing of the Tear," in Little Lifteis " a declamation. Little Litters" waa suc ceeded by a song, " The Sweet Story of Old," by the Fourth School. Tbe Sweet Story was succeeded by a dialogue, "The Young Orators," by Harry UcClellan and Eddie Watts. The contention of the ora tors was succeeded by a peaceful declama tion, "The Scholar's Mission, by William K. Ktka. At the conclusion of this well said piece it became us to leave th Hall, which we did, and that is all that we saw of the entertainment. The people wbo were there are not yet through with Jhe good talk about it. .

A general meeting in tbe evening. Addresses by ministers ot various de uominations. Closing exercises. A ktmber of Russian Mennonites are speuding tbe winter in Mifflin coun ty among American bretbreu of the same religious belief, as may be learned from tbe following from the Lewistown Senlinrl: Eight families, in all forty persons, of the above named people bave con cluded to remain in Menno township, until Spring. They sailed from Ham burg, some time ago, with the intention of settling tu Kansas. hen they landed in this countiy they heard of the grasshopper plague there and con eluded to stop in the East during tbe winter, and so tbey are in Menno town ship, among friends, and good friends. They dress iu tbe style illustrated iu our school geographies peculiar to the ' Russian Serf." Their language is the pure German, only familiar to the edu cated of our excellent Amish (pro nounced Ornish) population. Tbey could not have chosen a happier local ity for discipline, or educati u, prepar atory to permanent entree upon their new homes. They will be kindly cared for and instructed, and be all the wiser and better from their intercourse with the Mennonites of Mifflin county. As exchange says : Judge El well, in a Columbia county case, decided tbat school directors could only levy a Ux of ten mills on the dollar. This de cision has been held good by Judge Walker, and an additional point deci ded iu a recent Schuylkill county easj. A regular tar of ten mills and a special tax of two mill:, for building purposes, had been assessed iu the borough of Piuegrove. Tbe building tax was to be used for tbe repair of a school bouse already erected. Judge Walker decides the two mill tax to be illegal. Ordi nary repairs must be made out of the regular school fund. As these deci sions are iu conflict with the rulings of the School Department, it is important that they should be generally known. in order that school directors may not igonrantly collect taxes they are not entitled to receive.

The citizen from whom it j was received, wri'es : "1 have copied it from a collection of hymns now out of use generally. I would like to have it published as Select Poetry.' " The Prodigal. Behold Ihe wretch whose lust and wins Hath wasted his estate; tie begs a share among the swine, To taste the huskj they eat. " I die with hunger, here," he cries, " 1 starve in foreign lands ; My Father's bouse has large supplies, And bounteous are his hands. I'D go, and with a mournful tongue Fall down before his face; Father, I've done thy justice wrong, Nor can deserve thy grace," r He said and hastened to his home. To seek hi father's love ; Th father saw the rebel come, And all his bowels move. He ran and fell upon bis neck, Embraced and kiss -d his son ; The rebel's heart with sorrow baka For follies he hadjdonc.

Lloyd, the famous map man. who made all tbe maps f.r General Grant and the Union army, certificates of which he published, Las just invented a way of getting a relief plate from steel so as to print Lloyd's Map of the American Continent shoe ing from ocean to ocean on one entire sheet of bank note paper, 40x50 inches large, on a lightning press, and colored, sized and varnished for the wall so as to stand wasbiug, and mailing any where in the world for 25 cents, or un varnished for 10 cents. This map shows tbe whole United States and Territo ries in a group, from surveys to 1375, with a million places on it, such as towns, cities, village?, mountains, lakes, rivers, streams, gold mines, railway stations, to.

Rogers, foundrymau at Johns town, this county, some days ago g it a j bomb-shell in a purchase of old metal. He thought it a defective or condemned shell, one tbat had never been prepared for war. With other metal he put it in the cupalo of the establishment. By and by a dull noise broke in on the monotonous hum of the foundry; the whole house shook, and Mr. Rogers did not know which way bis concern was likely to go whether up or down. It was the bomb-shell tbat had produced the uproar. Tbe cupalo has undergone extensive repairs since then, and tbe next bomb-shell tbat will get into it, will not be under the management of Mr. Rogers. An aged, respectable, and wealthy citizen of Rrothersville township, Som erset county, committed suicide on Thursday night of last week, by chok ing off bis supply of wind, lie adopt ed a rather novel method of hustling himself out of the world, as he dis carded tbe use of ihe rope altogether, and arranged two iron pokers in some manner over tbe door by means of which, when placing bis neck between them, he was enabled to strangle himself.

A tlressiig mlikh is at once agreea ble, hrItliy, and" ettectual for preserv ing the iiair. It toon rr- stores faded or grny hair j to its ornjiiial enhtr, irith the t'o.is ami fh-shness o f youth. Thin Iiair is thickened, fall iri hair checked, ami baldness often, though not always, cured ly its ne. Xothins can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed; but such as remain can be saved by this application, and stimulated into activity, so that a new growth of hair is produced. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will present the hair from turning gray or failing off, and consequently prevent baldness. The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrests and prevents the formation of dandruff, which is often so uncleanly and offensive. Free from those deleterious sul Ftances which make some prepara tions dangerous, and injurious io the hair, the Vigor can only benefit, hut not harm it. If wanted men-lv for a HAIK DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Contain ing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
