The men have now demonstrated their abilty to minister to our culinary taste, and we shall be ready to respond to their invitation hereafter when- ever they ask us to do so. They as there were two attractions “not down on the bills" that were very pleasing. The first and greatest of these was the first appearance of the “Excelsior Glee Club" com- posed of some of the best young gentlemen singers of Sayre. Their names were Byron Thomas, or- ganist, Wade Hammond, 1st bass; Howard Lull, 2nd bass; Leon Evans, 1st tenor; Edwin LaMoante, 2nd tenor. They sang a beautiful serenade as an opening and did it in such a grand style that they were heartily encored and were obliged to respond several times. Floyd Crayton had one of Taylor's graphophones in charge and he made it talk and sing to our great delight. It was a first class enter- His Friends Fairly Took Him Prisoner at His Home in New Albany and they will be interested to koow birthday, which occurred last Wednesday, March 14th. Com rade Ladd served in the Fifty- S vinth Pennsylvania Volunteers in" Kearney's division, Sickles’ corps, and he is proud of the red diamond badge he wears. The war is a memory now but it is fruited with heroic incidents that are fresh to him, even in his ripe old age. On this occasion the ladies of the Woman's Relief corps, of which- Mr. Ladd's daughter is resident, marched in upon him un announced and took possession. About 20 guests, of the best people in the locality, were present. Among those present were Danel Haverly and Mrs. Covey, each aged 82 years, the former having driven from Overton that moming. Many tokens of regard were conferred upon Mr. Ladd on this occasion. TRADE CONDITIONS. RR. ©. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Heview of Basiness. NEW YORK, March 17.— Wholesome conditions are maintained in commer- clal channels, the tenor of most re ports being favorable, and compara: tively little anxiety is felt regarding the labor situation. New projects are constantly appearing, calling for much capital and giving employment to many wage earners. Several scales have been signed that provide for higher wages after this month, and the gen- eral prosperity of the winter is be lieved te mesure a very large retall trade in spring wearing apparel. Job Ling houses bave been enabled to make shipments with unusual prompiness ewing to the ample railway facilities and few freight Wockades that result od from an exceptionally mild winter. Railroad earnings for the first week of March are considerably larger than last year, though there is no such sen- sationa! gain as appeared in the Feb uary comparison, the result largely of cbanged weather conditions. Total gross earnings of all United States roads reporting for the first week of March are $0,784,820, an increase of B80 per cemt over the corresponding period last year. Commercial failures this week in the United States are £20 against 221 last week, 2368 the preceding week and 280 the corresponding week last yedr. Failures in Canada number 34 against 84 last week, 41 the preceding week and 36 last year. Of fallures this week Ia the United States 72 were In the east, 65 In the south, 65 in the west and 27 in the Pacific states, and 73 re- port liabilities of $5,000 or more. Lis. bilities of commercial failures reported for March to date are $4235508 against $4,351,050 last year. TWENTY-ONE FEET OF SNOW. Great Floods Threaten Garfield Vime- yard Regions oY California. FRESNO, Cal, March 17.—A storm of unprecedented severity bas been raging for sixty beours, and the region between the San Joaquin apd Kings river Is threatened with the greatest flood In years. The fall of suow In the mountain exceeds all records. Advices from Pine Ridge, which Is et an altitude of 5,000 feet, say twelve feet of snow has fallen, nud at the summit of the mountains the depth Is twenty-one feet. The residents of the Garfield vineyard region worked all night In a blinding rain bullding levees, but thelr work went for nothiog when a huge overflow wave went sweeping through that region yesterday morning. Fancher creek, lowing south of Fresno into canals of the Fresno Irrigation Canal company, is beyond control and Is laying waste vineyards. Already miles of land are covered with five feet of walter, After a night of terror the 000 people of Latou, on Kiugs river, have moved in a body to the grade of the Bauta Fe raflway. The levees about Laton are six feet high, but they are overflowing. Numerous bridges are washing out in the northern colonies. Both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific report nu- merous washouts and train service de mornlized.
