The Fourth of July entertainment to be
given by the Catholics on the Fair grounds in
East Towanda promises to he a very enjoy
able affair. The programme enbraces nearjy
all the inocent amusements and sports of the
day.
IIIRAM ELSBRKE and HARRY WILCOX,
who are conducting a dairy and milk w agon,
have commenced the manufacture of ice
cream. Orders will be promptly filled. We
are under obligatons to the firm for a
generous supply which we promounce delic
ious. We have no doubt they will be liberally
patronized.
The barn of ALLEN II.WOOD about two
miles north east of East Smitbflold, was
burned on Thursday of last week, about 11
o'clock. The barn was nearly new, of large
size and first-class make. When the fire was
discovered it was under such headway that a
horse and cow which were in the barn could
not be rescued and were burned. It is sup
posed to be the work of an incendiary. The
loss is about SBOO and there was an insurance
of S4OO.
The Eureica mower machine has scored Ms
geratest victory in the heart of its enemy's
country, in Ohio. The agents have disposed
of 125 machines to one dealer in that slate.
/ The company keeps seven salaried traveling
men on the road. We think it must be evident
to any one who keeps posted in regard to
mowing machines that the Eureka is hound
to lead all other mowers. G. B. Davison of
this place is one of their agents.— Troy Ga
zette.
Strawberry shortcake now being in order,
we print the following reeipt for the benefit
of our lady readers. It makes a very nice
addition to the tea table, or can be used as a
dessert. Take one quart of sifted flour, stir
very thoroughly into it half a teaspoonful of
soda; one teaspoonful of cream of tartar
must he well mixed into i f , a tablespoonful of
butter, one teaspoonful of salt, about a coffee
cup full of water. It is best mixed with a
knife, cutting it through and through, and if
possible do not put your hands into it except
in rolling it out. The mass should be as
moist as you con well mannge. Roll it
smoothly out, making two round cakes of a
bout half an inch in thickness. Bake in a
quick oven. When done, split the cske open;
put the slices in a large dish; butter them;
coyer each slice with berries and sugar fin
ally making the berries the top layer.

NEW YORK, June 22nd, 1881.
We find this great city as noisy and busy
as ever, as we feast our eyes on its interest
ing sights and feed our digestive organs on
oleomargarine for which it is now famous.
Business appears to be run on the high
pressure system, nearly every man met
dashes by as though he had but a very limit
ed time to occupy terra-firma, and the work
of a century to do in that short space. There
is a marked absence of the "free and easy"
spirit so common in Philadelphia, and com
pares with it much as the postal system docs
with the telegraph. Broadway, its centre of
gravity is usually jammed and wedged during
business hours, but relief is looked for in the
uuder-ground road now being built.
We found the obelisk the great centre of
attraction at the park. A force of men are
working at the foundation, and guarding it
so closely that no one can pocket it for a
tootli-pick. It has an air of grandeur and
mystery to all, and calls for admiration by
its quaint hieroglyphics, venerable appear
ance and imposing size. Conev Island has
many new attractions, great improvements
having been made since last year. The main
feature of this noted resort is the fact of its
being for the masses. The poor as well as
the rich having access to if, the rates of fare
being so low that nearly all can visit it, get
sea breezes and take an ocean bath. One
hotel employs a band of forty pieces, to fur
nish music in open air, others have bands to
which are added many other attractions in
walks, drives, amusements, grand hotels and
a capital beach, making a place of resor 1
second to no others around the city. Capt.
Smith of Sewanaka fame ran the boat on
which we returned, and we found him a very
social man, pointing out places of interest
along the route. J lis head bears lasting scars
and burns received at tbe disaster last year.
A stroll through Castle Garden affords one
some idea of tie emigrant rush and gives rise
to the wish that knownothuigism might be
revived. It is true we saw some thrifty
and respectable looking candidates, but the
masses were seedy and dirty. But as some
seventy-five per cent of them go West we of
the Keystone need not complain.
Don't fail to go to .JOHN SULLIVAN'S, on
Bridge street, for the best five cent cogar.
