Maty harvest h n.e picnics or gth eritgs aro Leld in Juniata county every year. Ths present year has betn no fcxo.pton to the past except that the crowds have been larger than for many years. Bnt the great picnic, the one that snrj asptd them all in the size of the niu t:tiule present, was held last Sat urday in Leonard's Grove, near Wat erloo. Pcoplo from five counties participated. Janiata, Huntingdon, FiaxtkltD, Perry and Fu'.ton counties futnitthed of its people, hundreds vho enjoy an occasion such as this. until the hundreds had increased in to thousands, and people who are compettnt calculators estimated the crowd to number anywhere from C,0(iO to 10,000. The Grove is locatid on the banks of TuKcaroia Creek and the T. V. Railroad passes through it. It is said more people attend this piccic annually than attend any other picnic in the five counties just mentioned, xut tne attraction this year was tho presence t f Col. W. A. Stone, tfce Hi publican candidate for Gover nor cf this great Commonwealth. It iave a political complexion to tho gathering which made it attrac tive to many who care nothing for the usual picnic and theee thousands added to the thousands who always attended the picnic account for the multituJe gathered at Leonard's Grove on Saturday. Stalwart Republicans, (men who year after year vote the Republican ticket irom principle, knowms they are right, as under Republican prin ciples me country develops, its re sources aie enlarged, its wealth is increased, and tho prosperity of its people is furthered,) stood side by sid-j with Republicans who are carry ing knives in their boot legs for the and Legislature, becauso they failed to get what they wanted, either for themselves or their friends. The latter claimed to be for Stone for Governor, but only because their in telligence informs them ho will bt thentxt Governor iu epite of any thing they can do. Democrats were there to see what manner of man the candidate of their great political enemy was. They wanted to see tho man who so earnestly advocated tho passage by Congiess of a bill restricting foreign emigration, and so c:-rceatiy supported the Dinglsy tariff bill. They wanted to see the man whom boili Swallow and Wnna- maker (who are past grand masters iu the abuse, personally, of their po litical enernibs) admit is spotless in reputation and character, and who, notwithstanding his personal worth, aid blameless life should be defeated for Governor this year because there happen to be rogues and rascals in pnb.ic otlice. There were Prohibitionists ? there from Lick township and from olher plact-s too, who cine, not so much, to look upon the next. Governor, as to try to secure some ote with tem erity enough to take the nomination for Legislature upon the Prohibition? ticket. A soured Republican, they preferred, but the writer is unable to state wbttbtr they succeeded in tiding their ticket or not. The advertised speakers for this occasion were Col. W. A. Stone, Judge Jeremiah Lyons, Hon. L. E Atkinson and J. Howard Neely, E'q. A S. Raffeusberger was chairman of the platform exercises, and he in troduced Hon. Jeremiah Lyons to the audience in the forenoon. Judge Lyons addressed the people upon the subject cf the war and the gener al prosperity of the people and judg ing from the remarks of the people the speech was well received. It was not the intention of any of the speakers to discuss politics in their ppseches, at least so they in formed the writer, but H. D. P.tton, of Lancaster, Pa., appeared on the grounds a?tr dinner upon invitation by the committee. He is what is known as a hired cr paid political talker. He has lectur ed for the Grange, for Prohibition, for free silver, and now is stumping the sta'e for Dr. Swallow for Gover cor. Mr. Palton was called upon to make the first speech after dinner. Patton is a good talker and he im mediately took up Dr. Swallow's lauiC afid atUmpttd to tell his list eners what a brave, bold, grand man Swallow was to take a stand for re form in Pennsylvania. He soon passed on from the eulogy on Swallow and in a general way charged the Republican party with burning the capitol at Harrisburg, with paying $18.00 a piece for some cuspidors in the capitol ; with spend ing $400 for the erection of a flag pole and flag at Scotland Orphan School ; with paying $1,000 for pen knives, paper cutters, holders, etc-, fcr the members of the last Legisla tive; for the passage of the Lexow itve&tigatiBg expense bill. And be lure he closed paid hiB respect to the leiu'--iatic party, or what is left of ir, by saving, reformers could expect notbirg irom the Democratic party. Ho virtually charged the Republican party wis.li being guilty of all the crimes known to thj Decologm , murder, excepleJ. Tiie crowd was orderly and attentive but as the speaker simply rehashed Dr. Swal- -ows harangue it brought forth little if auy applause. The chairman of the meeting then introduced Col. W. A. Stone as the next speaker. Col. Stone is not what would be called a handsome man. He is n blond, with a yello mustache. He stands six feet four in his stockings, and he baa the appearance of being a good natoied man. He began bia peeh by complimenting the people on the weather, the picnic, the fine grounds, the intelligence of the men, and the beauty of the women. He in a general way touched on the late war, and expressed the opinion that as President McKinley had been right all the way through the war, he felt satisfied he would pro perly solve the question growing out cf the war and particularly the Philippine question. He was satis fied the tanff was not an issue. 11 was conceded by the Democratic party that the Dingley bill was all tight, and all we now want is to let it alone for fifteen or twenty rears and we will have such a period of prosperity s the country has never known. He told his audience that Repnb licau administrations always raised money sufficient to conduct the affairs of the Government while Democratic administrations had to sell bonds to raise money for the the same purpose; that the Cleveland administration sold to syndicates $250,000,000 bonds to raise money to pay the expenses of the Govern ment ; that the Republican adminis tration when it was raising money iu time of war sold it bonds directly to the people He in answer to Mr. Patton's charge that the last Legislature was profligate, said he was no more re sponsible for what they did, than his hearers, but that be would be only responsible for the next Legislature, in case the people saw fit to elect him Governor. Col. Stone told his audience the net revenue of this great state was between $10,090,000 and $11,000,000; that the corporations of Pennsylvania pay 6, 062,000 of this immense reve nue ; that tax on personal property, on insurance companies, on liquor licenses, and on mercantile houses raises the balance ef about $4,000,- 000. Compared to the $29,000,000 for municipal purposes raised in the city of Philadelphia annually, with its population of 1,200,000, it is small when you know Pennsylvania con tains a population of over 7,000,000. Pittsbursr with a population of 500,000, raises a revenue of $7,000, 000 annually for municipal purposes. Compare this with the $11,000,000 raised by this great state containing 7,000,000 people. The speaker showed that $6,500, 000 of this immense revenue was ap propriated for educational purposes ; that nearly $2,000,000 more was ap propriated for charitable institutions, leaving the balance of about $3,000, 000 to run the executive. Legislative and Judicial departments of the gov eminent and to keep up the Nation al Guard, etc. A small sun to con duct the affttirs of a state like Penn sylvania. He told his audience that out of the appropriation of $0,500,000 for educational purposes. Juniata county got as her share for common school purposes $18,335 91 ; that the salar ies of her Judges, her State Set a tor and Representative and her Common I Scho ol Superintendent were paid by the State; that in return to the j State Juniata county paid less than $4,CC0 ; this sum including tax on personal property, tax on liquor license, collateral inheritance tax. tax on mercantile licenses and mis cellaneous tax. The Col. impressed upon the people the f-ict that it was an achievement of the Republican party that made possible the relief of real estate from State taxation in 1SG6 He called Mr. Patton's attention to the fact that be had wilfully mis represented tbe Republican admin is tiation when he said the Lexow bill had become a law, when it is a fact that it with hundreds of other bills failed to pass, not because of any thing Dr. Swallow or the Demo cratic party had done to prevent it, but because the Republican admin istration believed it right and proper to kill it. Col. Stone complained of tbe in justice of attacking a party because there werebad men holding omce; that all Biblical students know that one of the twelve chosen apostles went wrong ; that out of a gathering of such a number of men as constitute the State Legislature of Pennsyl vania there w:ll be some who are wrouf ; that it is a great injustice to a great party to attribute to it im proper motives, because of the weak ness of a few of its members. Tbe speech was well received, and it was tbe first time anyone has ar. swered tbe Swallowites in that sec tion of the country, where their rep resentatives have been using the pnl pit and all other means to abuse the Republican party. Col Stone expressed the intention of returning to Juniata again before the campaign closes. Hon. L. E. Atkinson followed Col. Stone and made a brief and able ad dress, talking principally on the two late wars and ineidently alluding to the political situation. J. H- Neely the last of the adver tised speakers then got tbe floor, and after complimenting the crowd on their looks and behavior, being a Democrat by birth and inclination, in a short" but eloquent address spoke of the sterling qualities of Geo. A Jenks, the Democratic can didate for Governor and claimed for him, that be waa a platform in him self. Mr. Neely, having the reputa tion of being the leading Democratic orator in this section of the State, sustained on this occasion bis repu tation as an orator in ably defending a hopeless cause. Rev. Diener, then took the floor in behalf of Swallow, but at this point in the proceedings the riter left to catch a train for Port Royal on the Tuscarora Yalley Railroad, and he does not know what the gentleman had to sjy There is one promising sign for good, government in Cuba and the Philippine islands, and that it), the insurgents do not want tne Amen cans to withdraw. Exempt Fr rntlie Draft. Farmers should be careful f a lot of sharpers who are going tne rounds telling them they are likely to be drafted but that for a certain sum of money paid to them they will be ex- empt. These men are frauds of tbe meanest kind, and if you come across one of them be sere and have him ar-. rested. Selinsgreve Tribune.

WORK OF TIIE BROOKLfX. All honor to the cruiser Brooklyn. which, aside from the fact that Com modore SScliley's neuuant flew at her mast-head during the engagement with Cervera's fleet, seems by the official in vestigations juxt made to have given sh well as received the most and the hard est knocks during that famous tight. A tioard of naval officers, acting uuder orders from Haiupson, has made an ex amination of the Spanish wrecks, and, as a result of this, the fact is disclosed that only forty-one holes larger than those made by pix-poundere were made in the hulls of the ships. Of these, eight hits were made by 4-inch shells, twenty by 5-inch shells, one y aivinch shell, ten by 8-inch shells aud two hits by the 12 and 13-inch shells. It will lie noticed that the 5-inch shells did the greatest damage, and as the only 5-inch guns on ine vessels mat )Ktnicliiated Iu the fight are mounted on the Brooklvn. the entire twenty hits made bv the shells of those dimensions must be credited to the Brooklyn. Moreover. the Brooklyn curries 8-inch guns, and as one hundred of projectiles of that size were thrown from her decks during the engagement, it seems reasonable to credit her with two hits with these. This gives her a record of 63J per cent, of the forty-one hits discovered to 4J per cent, of all the other American ships participating. Besides this, five of the 5-inch shots were discovered on the Maria Teresa, five on the Almirante Oquendo, four on the Cristobal Colon and six ou the Vizcava. which shows conclusively that the Brooklyn engaged them all with equal courage'and effect. ii is a record or which the cruiser's officer and crew mav well be proud. ith Schley on the bridge, the Brook lyn seems to have sailed into the eneniv iu a manner befitting the station of the man directing the right. The results snow what she accomplished. 1VHEA GENERAL GREELT FACED DEATH. The true story of those fearful two hundred and seventy-eight days iu the Arctic regions when Greelv's little land of daring explorers stood face to face witn death, is to ie to told, for the first time, by General Oreely himself in the October Ladies' Home Journal. For years has General ( Jreely kept a rigid silence as to his terrible' experiences iu the icy regions, and only after months of persuasion was he finally induced to write out the story.

Commissioner of Pensions H. Clay Evans, says that numerous pensioners are going to unnecessary expeuse iu affixing internal revenue stamps to pension papers. This Is particularly the ease in regard to pension vouchers which are found to be stamped offtener than other papers. He wishes it to be known that the law does not require stamps to be placed upon any pension paper. NIAGARA FALLS. Low-Rate Excuksiox, via Penn sylvania RAil.KOAD.

The Philadelphia Times of August 22d says. Rev. J. . Freeman, of Boy ertown, Berks county, the minister who created a sensation by preaching a sermon from the pulpit of Saasaman's Church in his shirt sleeves, has this to say in explanation : "When I preach ed the sermon coat less it was oppres sively hot. The thermometer register ed 98 iu the shade. I would take it off j again uuder similar conditions, even in a city pulpit. I did no more sin than do the city preachers who wear iu the pulpit a dress coat, slippers and a shirt stud. I had no "g wn" at the time, nor any comfortable garment. We country preachers must give our people a good sermon, even ou a hot day, while city congregations are satisfied with a fine coat. "Our professors of theology told us that when we go to the country we must take our best sermons aud preach them, but when we fill city pulpits we must wear our finest coats." JOUKT PROCLAMATION.
