Off for the l'lshtng Grounds
lion. W. T. Davies, Ex-Sheriff Layton,
Clark B. Porter and George Ennis, Ward
House Clerk, left on Monday niorning last
for West Canada Creek, Lewis county, N. Y.,
a celebrated trout stream, to recreate for a
week in angling for speckled beauties in its
turbid waters. A, Senator, an ex-Sheriff, a
druggist and a hutel man. If tne trout knew
who aro after them they would all keep lent
during their stay. They went well supplied
with commissary and -all the accoutrements
necessary for a week's sojourn in the wilder
ness. Fat, sleek fellows all, they Will be wel
come food for the long-billed mosquitoes, so
abundant on that stream. The best fishing
places on the stream are known as the
"Conkliug Hole," the "Platt Hole," the Ker-
Dan Hole," the "Jacobs Eye," etc. Davies
and Layton, being of the "Cankling persua
sion, will fish in the •Conkling and Platt
holes•, while Porter and Ennis, being of the'
Democratic faith, will fish in the Kernan and
Jacobs holes. We opine that they will not
be very successful in any of these holes just
at this time. The trout don't lie there, but
hive betaken themselves to the "Adminis
tration Hole," higher up the stream, where
lie advise them to try their luck, - and wish
them ample success. 1 .

EICIIELBERGEB-DARTLETT.
On Thursday evening last, June 9th, Mr.
Norman Eichelberger and Miss Cora, young
est daughter of 0. D. Bartlett, Esq., a sister
of Mrs. W. G. Tracy and Mrs. E. 0. Macfar
lane, were married at the residence of W. G.
Tracy. The two were made one after the
beautiful [and impressive marriage rites. of
the Episcopal Church, administered by Rev.
F. W. Bartlett, brother of the bride. .About
fifty invited . guests, special friends of the
bride and groom, were present as witnesses
of the pledge that bound two hearts in one
knot of happiness. Many were prevented
from reeponeing to their invitations by the
inclemency of the evening. - The spacious
parlors of Mr. and Mrs. Tracy were elabor
ately ornamented with letdown of evergreen
and flowers for the occasion. Many were the
substantial tokens of love and friendship pre
nested to the bride, in valuable silverware
and other articles of utility to young house
keepers. A pleasant evening was enjoyed
through the hearty hospitality of Mr..and
Mrs. Tracy. The bride and groom departed'
on their bridal tour on the eastward bound
Lehigh Valley•train at 10:45 in the evening.
They will visit friendi of the groom, residing
we think. west of Pittsburg. also Philadelphia,
- Washington, etc. On their return it is ex
pected they will make Towanda, where Mr.
Eichelberger is actively engaged in business
as a member of the firm of C. Johnson a Co.,
in the foundery business, their future home.:
The, happy benedict may well be congratu
-1 lated on his good fortune in winning ono of
Towanda's most estimable young ladies as a
life companion. Mr. Elchelberger is an en
ergetic and competent business man of•cor
rect habits of life, entirely worthy of the
union he has made. Congratulations are
therefore mutual. '
,"May they live long and
prosper."
Children's Sunday.
The Festival of Flowers which was held in
the M. E. Church on Sunday morning-last,
was of a highly -interesting character. The
church was moat beautifully decorated with
growing ;plants, ferns, lillies, fuchiati and
foliage plants.. A star of exquisite white
flowers, bordered with crimson, was suspend
ed. over the chancel. On either side were
placed anchors of 'lovely blossoms., A cross
covered with evergreens rested in front of
the reading desk. At a certain point in the
exercises, this cress was ornamented with
handsome buquets of flowers, the pure offer
ings of a bevy of aweet - young girls and inno
cent children. Selections from various au
thors were recited by three groups othtile
girls, placed in front of the pulpit and on
either side. Appropriate hymns were sung.
B. M. Peck, Esq., Superintendent of the Sun
day School, made a brief and pithy address.
followed by Rev. C. U. Wright, who explain
ed* the objects of Children's Day and the pur
poses for which the funds upon
that day are used. .
Floral Sunday was also observed at the-
Uiiversalist Church. The always handsome
chancel was prettily ornamented with choice
floral designs. The services were adapted to
the occasion. It seems to ns that - nothing
can be more fitting than to set apart one
Sunday in the year in-which to teach the
children to love and reverence the great
(liver of all good and beautiful gifts.

New Orleans Minstrells
This celebrated • cznipany will appear at
llerctir 'Hall, Towanda, on =Friday evening
next, Juno 17. The troupe has the reputa
tion of being the best minstrel performers
who travel. The company is one of the oldest
in the country and is known everywhere as
the very best: They will no doubt be greet
with an overflowing house on Friday even
next.
The following from the Dubuque, lowa,
Herald, is one of the many press , testimonials
to their meat: "The Now Orleans Minstrels,
under the 14siness management' of A. D.
Miller, open a their budget of mnsie and fun
at the Opera House last evening: 'A driving
snow storm, slippery sidewalks and inclement
weather generally, prevented a very large
audience, but those who were there mani
tested their satisfaction by hearty applause
The company is a good one, better than the
average by long odds, and if the managers
cannot make money with a show like they

Newspapers
Somebody, —if we knew who, we would give
duo credit,—writes thus tersely and truthfully
of newspapers and their worth to the world;
"The value of newspapers is not fully appre
ciated, WI the rapidity with which people
are waking up to their necessity and useful
ness, is one , of the significant signs of the
times. Few fainilies are now content with a
single newspaper. The thirst for knowledge
is _ not easily satiated, and books, though
useful—yes, even absolutely necessary in
their place, fail to meet the demands of
youth or age. Th© village newspaper is ea
gerly sought for, and its contents as eagerly
devoured - . Then comes the.demand for the
county news, state news, national and foreign
news. Next to the political come the literary
and then the scientific journals. Lastly, and
above all, come the mural and religious
journals. This variety is demanded to; satisfy
the cravings of the active mind.
"Newspapers are also valuable to material
prosperity. They advertise the village,
county or locality. . They spread before the
reader a map?on which may.. be traced char
acter; design and progress. If a stranger
calls at a hotel, he first inquires for • the vil
lage newspape'rs; if a fciend comes from a
distance the very ,nezt thing after a family
greeting, he Inquires for your village or
county newspaper, and you feel discomfited
if you are unable to find a late coff, and
confounded - if you are compelled to say you
do not take it.. ' .
Under the head of "Sunshine Through :be
Clouds," the Olean, N. Y., Daily Express, of

Attention Fishermen.:

stock of fishing tackle, lines; hooks, artifi

etc. In fact they k . eep a large assortment of
outfits for trout or bass fishing, and with a
sot of their fishing tackle you can catch any
thing from al minnow' to a whale. some of
our fisherm l on have bean questioned as to
the secret of their success in catching trout.
Many unsuccessful sportsmen have thought
that there was some particular Stream Where
these delicious fish were more plentiful, the
locality of which was known only to the lucky

Mfrs. Madden's Mit/inert/ Store.
A lady recently said that she liked to go
into Mrs. Madden's shop just to look at the
beautiful things to be seen there—ribbon%
laces, flowers, ornaments, hats and bonnets—
but one fact she tfoticed was that one seldom
saw the same pretty hat or bonnet twice in
snocession; for if she inquired for the article
the second time it was always sold and gone.
It is true that the rush of. customers is so
great that the whole force of milliners Mrs.
Madden employs is kept constantly busy in
supplying the wants of her customers.
PILES.
Piles are frequently preteded by a sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some , affection of -the kidneys or
neighboring organs. At, times symptoms of
indigestion are present as flatulency. uneasi
ness of the stomach. eta. A moisture like
perspiration,-producing a very disagreeable
itching, particularly at night after getting
warm in bed, is a very common attendant.
Internal, External and Itching' Piles yield at
once on the application of Dr:'Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the ,
intense Itching, and affecting a permanent
cure where all other remedies have 'failed.
Do not delay until the drain on the system
produces permanent disability, but try it
'and be cured. Price, SO cents. Ask your
druggist for it, and when you cannot obtain
it of him, we will send it, prepaid, on recipt
of price. Address The Dr. Bosanko Medicine

ante Cyclopedia War." •
The Cyclopedia War and the Literary
Revolution are working wonderful and happy
results for the readers of _books, and search
ers after knowleclgei. ' The great "Library of
Universal Rnowledgp," is announced to be
completed, ready foridelivery to purchasers,
the early part of Sul It is probably the
largest and most impel - taut literary work this
country_ and the century have seen. It is
based upon Chambers's. lEncyclopedia, the
last London edition of which is reprinted en
tire as a Fortiori of its contents, a large corps
of American editdrs and writers adding
thereto, a vast amount 4 information upon
about 15.000 subjects iu every department of
human knowledge. Chambers's Encyclope
dia, whose distinguished merit is universally
known, is the laborious product of the ripest,
British and European schOlarahin, but befog
a . work of foreign productien it has been
naturally defleicut in its adaptatlion to the
wants of American - readers. In this new
form it is most thoroughly Americanized;
and becomes at once the largest and moat
complete encyclopedia in the field, at a, mere
fraction of the cost of any similar works
which have preceded it, containing nbont 10
percent. more matter than Appleton's Ency
clopedia, at less than one-fifth its cost, and
20 per cent. more than iohnson'S Cyclopedia
al a little more than one-fourth - its cost.
The superlative value and importance of
this great Encyclopedia, however, lies 'espe
cially In the fact that it is brought within
the reach of every one who aspires after
knowledge and culture. It Is really a libraii ,
of universal knowledge. ,It brings a liberal
education easily within the reach of every
plow-boy.. Ev,ery farmer and every mechanic
owes it to himself, and to his children that
such a cyclopedia shall henceforward form a
part of-the putilt of his home. To the
man in every walk of life a Cyclopedia
is indispensible. It is issued in various
styles, in 15 larg6' beautiful octavo volumes,.
Varying in price from $l5 for the edition in
'cloth, to $25 for the edition In fall library
sheep binding. Liberal discounts even Itom
these extraordinary prices are allowed to'
°lobs, and the publishers, besides, propose
during the -next two months to distribute
$lO,OOO cash in special rewards to persotis
