The Independent says the base ball fever has seized upon the people who are making their summer homes at Eagles Mere, and almost every day sees a game in progress at the Athletic field. Usually the teams are made up of young men guests representing the hotels at which they are stopping. The games are always well attended, among the most en thusiastic of the spectators being ladies who more or less frantically cheer for their favorites during the playing and exault with the victors or pour out their sympathies for the defeated at the close. All interesting case wa» tried be fore Judge Dunham Wednesday in which a number of Elkland prom inent citizens appeared to testify in behalf of the' plaintiff, D. M. McCar ty, who was asking to have his mer cantile business protected by the in junction recently granted, refraining C. B. Jennings from engaging in mercantile pursuits in and around Estella, in accordance with an agree ment made between the two parties at the time the plaintif purchased of the defendant bis store property at Estella. The witnesses called to testify in the case were Mrs. Isaac [ Brown, Mrs. Win. T. More, Doc. McCarty, S. P. Shoemaker, Ward Molyneux, Chas. I'lotts, C.J. Fuller, C. B.

E. church Monday eve ning. Rev. C.W.Burnley of Swath more, Pa., had charge. He was as sisted by Miss Ella Bromell of Ches ter, who gave recitations mostly along prohibition lines. Prof. L. L. Ford was asked to make some remarks. I n the trend of his remarks he expressed belief in the object of the meeting and his determination to co-operate in any effort to obtain results desired. Mr. Ford desired that himself and others find just where we do stand on the question. Rev. Mr. Burnley's address was forceful. His facts are indisputable, his arguments convincing, and his appeals were touching and effective. The audience showed its interest by the earnest attention given. Miss Broomell's recitations were appreciated and enjoyed by everyone. At the close of the meeting a Pro hibition Alliance was formed with sixteen members. This is a society in which all who desire to have the rum traffic exterminated, can con scientiously unite, without regard to age, sex or political affiliations. Mrs. T. J. Keeler cntertainedJMiws Broomell during her stay in town. Miss Grace Lawrence of Muney, is spending the week with her aunt, Mrs. A. J. Bradley. Rev. Mr. Burnley is remembered by many of the . older residents of this place as pastor of the M. E. church thirty years ago. He built the present structure. All were glad to greet him again and Jto see that time has dealt so gently with him. Mr. Burnley is a brother-in law of Mrs. \V. H. Randall. John I. Young, clerk of the Su preme Court of tha District of Col umbia, has added a most interesting paragaph to his new blank applica tion and order for naturalization. Hereafter every "alien friend" de sirous of being admitted a citizen of the United States by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, in addition to making report of him self or herself, must solemnly swear as follows: "I am not a disbeliever in or op posed to all organized government; I am not a member of nor am I affil iated with any organization enter taining or teaching disbelief in or opposition to all organized govern ment, or that advocates or teaches the duty, necessity or propriety of the unlawful assaulting or killing of any officer or officers, either of spe cific individuals or officers generally, of the government iof the United States, or of any other organized government, because of his or their official character." The foregoing oath, as is apparent, is intended to prevent anarchists from being admitted citizens of the United States. Important Dates to Be Remembered.
