industrial school for children is the

taught at home, the industrial work

The McVevtown Journal says:
A misunderstanding is said to exist

and the Juniata Valley Camp-meeting
Association as to tue oiosmg of the
gates on Sunday during the meeting
this year. Key. Polsgrove savs they
will be closed, while the stock hold
era of the Association say they will
not be. It is alleged that the Asso
ciation has lost over f 1000 in the last
three years over the agitation of the
Sunday question and the affair will
ba run hereafter so as to brin the
most money into the exchequer. The
directors will not do anything to in
terfere with the running of trains to
and from the camp ground, believing
that tue people nave as much right
to attend camp meeting as any other
religious gathering on Sunday.
The report of two tragedies eonie
up from the south within the past
week, owing to the stolen love inter
course of married people. It is the
same old recinriuge Btory witu
one difference, and that is, all the
pirties were married. In the Breck
inridge case, the man was married,
the woman was unmarried. In the
late Kentucky case, the husband of
the woman followed his wife and a er
lover to a colored woman's house, the
place wheie the unlawful lovers were
wont to meet, and there the husband
killed both his wife and her lover.
All tho parties were prominent peo
ple. The other case was in New
Orleans and was identical with the
one just mentioned with this differ
ence that the wife was not killed.
Her husband did not even shoot at
her, bnt he put five bullets through
her lover.
On Saturday a horse bitched to a
spring wagon in which was a number
of chairs, a milk can, &c, stood in
front of Robert McMeen's residencs.
The young woman in charge of the
borse and wagon is a member of the
family tenanting the farm of Mr.
McMeen. The animal, &c., belong
to Mr. McMeen. All of a sudden the
Presbyterian church bell began to
ring. It was not sweet music for the
beast's ears, but gave the animal
such a shock that it started to run as
if shot out of a gun. In turning the
corner at the Commissioner's clerk's
house the wagon struck a post. The
single tree broke, and anchored the
wagon, while the horse ran away but
was caught on Washington street,
and was returned none the worse for
the Chureh bell fright. The only
damage done, was the breaking of
the single tree.
A WHALE.
Mr. Editor: Dsab Sik With the
spring of the year, when the ice and
enow have all gone, there is general
ly to be told in many circles, either
among the cultured or among the
"fishermen" some great fish story.
Probably some Juniata fisherman
has had some experience with a big
black bass, a shad or a piko this
spring; but this fish story is of no
such small game. No, its a whale.
A whale T Yes, a whale.
Down by the Fulton Ferry on the
East River side of New York city,
you will see a small canvass tent
built over a sort of a raft that lies on
top of the water. At the entrance
you will see in large letters, "The
Whale." Tickets for sale; adults 15c,
children lOcts." After you have
bought your ticket, you descend
about six steps from the dock onto
the floating raft, present your ticket,
and you are admitted in beneath the
canvass right beside the whale. A
boy that has been raised in the conn-
try wu tun want uib ajiowieage
or man fish is obtained only from
Dooaa and sometimes these doubted,
wumu oxciaim "ureal Bcott, what
nanT Uid that ever grow or was it
bantr"
From the ticket agent at the door,
and by the way, who waa very kind
to me, gave me the information and
particulars of the whale. And when
he observed that his information was
being noted down, continued to re
late in aetaii. This whale was found
aead oy a merchant vessel near Nan
tucitet sboaia on the oouit nf M..o.
cutuetiB. it is not known, th
01 iw aeatn, but it is believed that it

on exhibition, and during these ten
days, thousands of people have gone
to see "the whale." The length of
this monster is 75 feet, and weight
62 tons. This weight is considered
accurate, being obtained as the
weight of lading a ship is, by the dis
tance tue vessel ia sunk deep in the
water, there being marks on the fore-
1. r a 1 . - . -
puri. 01 uu snip uae tne scale on a
thermometer to measure the weight
ofthe ladinsr by the depths the ves
sel stands in the water. A professor
from Washington, who has made
whales a special subject for the last
fifteen years, visited it the other dav.
and from his knowledge determined
that this whale was at least 600 years
old. The jaw from one side of tha
mouth to the other is 14 feet. The
mou th is 7 feet loner, and it is said that
its throat is but 3 inches, ita food be
ing masticated like a cow before it ia
swallowed. It would seem a physical
impossibility for Jonah to go through
a three inch hole, but there is nothing
that breeds infidelity quicker thaa
whon we begin to question the Sacred
Pages; we should accept it and ask
no questions. A New York divine
Dr. Newton in his church a few
Sundays ago, and has likewise since,
stirred the religious circles by doubt
ing the physical resurrection of the
body of Christ.
But we are drifting off the subject.
The eyes of the whale are very small,
the ball being not larger than four
inohes in diameter. The skin is two
inches thick and the blubber six, suf
ficient to warm many an Esquimaux
from the inside out It is estimated
that it will produce thirty five or for
ty barrels of oil. The ontrals were
removed, and these amounted to
twenty one barrels. The fin on the
tail measures fifteen feet from tip to
tip. I must close or some one might
say, this is too '-fishy."
