After a high temperature most
of last Friday, a sudden change
took place iu the evening, and
about nirju o'clock a violent wind
storm passed over this section of
the State. At Morcersburg, the
Parker troupe was presenting
Uncle Tom 's Cabin. At the night
performance, the tent was crowd
ed by at least ."ou people, mostly,
women and children. The first
act about finished when the wind
storm caused the large tent to
collapse. There was great ex
citement and confusion. In the
stampede, fortunately, no per
son was trampled. Many bruises
etc., were sustained. Several of
the troupe, however, are said to
have been injured. The young
lady who played Kva, it is report
ed was painfully injured.
The Shippensburg Chronicle
says that Mr. and Mrs. Ed Dun
la;i of the Sherman House in that

That the party was a surprise to
Mrs. Wolfe, was fully demon
strated upon her arrival from her
apartments iu the house to the
parlor, where she found about
thirty of her intimate friends as
sembled. After recovering from
the surprise, Kev. M. E. Swart?,
made a neat liLtle speech aud
presented his gift, a large red
bandana handkerchief, after
w Inch the contents of a large bas
ket were showered over Mrs.
Wolfe's lap. Each guest present

To Our Readers
The attention of our readers ir
especially directed to the never
tisement of the I'ilMfniri: H:ml.
for Savings of 1'ittsbuig, l'a.;
which Hppears iu auoinu- p.tn o!
this issue. As many of dim
readers, no douol, are aware, I hi
Pittsburg Hank for Savings is tun
of, the oldest saving institutions
in the State of Pennsylvnnin, hav
ing boon founded in forty
one years no.
Its assets at the present linn
are about frl 1,000,01 0, and its
iiiaun.'rcmont is in the hand of
.-inn i" of Pittsburgs lending financ
iers and business men. There
tire few banks m the country that
have earned such a splouded ret
rd for stability and reliability as
hits this banking house
Pittsburg, with its innumera
ble industries anil large outlet for
the (jt.ick and safe invest ment of
money, enables the Pittsburg
j Bank for Savings to pay a very lib
eral rale of interest; Lamely, four
per cent. Hanks in the smaller
towns and cities are unable, by
reason of their locati hi, to invest
money as profitably as a bank so
situateil as the Pittsburg I tank
for Savings, and, of course, it is
to be expected that tiioy could
not. and do not, except, in very
rare cases, pay a higher rate of
interest than il per cent.; in fact
a great many of them pay but 2
per cent., and iu many instances
no interest whatever is paid.
The small cost of sending mon
ey to the Pittsburg Hank for Stiv
ings enables one to secure the
very liberal rate of interest which
it pays, and which adds one-third
more to a persons income who is
receiving but it per cent.; and, ."()
per cent, additional where only 2
Der ceut is allowed.
Seven years ago, the Pittsburg
Hank for Savings introduced a
system of Itankiug by Mail for
the benefit of ttiose living in local
ities whore the local bank fails to
meet its rate Of interest, and this
,
J"11! o.iioiin is vt-i,y 1111 e

i' "Hy one-third of the depositors
v uny ono-uiro oi me aei)osUors
of the Pittsburg Bank for Sav-
; ings do their banking entirely by i

Their Booklet No. P., which the !
bauk will send to auy of our read
ers desiring the same, explains
this system fully, and whether
you have $1.00 or $1,000 to invest
you should have a copy of it be

Outside of Pittsburgh And a few
localities, the bank rate of interest rarely ex
ceeds 3 per cent. The small cost of sending;
your money to this bank to earn 4 per cent
interest adds one-third more to your income.
$1,000 at 3 per cent, earns $30.00.
$1,000 at 4 per cent, earns $40.00.

True as Cospel.
(V very bright and sensible
young lady of the blooming West
made this request of a friend:
"Do not lay me down by t! e rip
pling brookside lest the babbling
lovers wake ine from my dreams,
nor in the beautiful cemeteries iu
the valleys, lest sightseers cooing
over epitaphs distract ine; but
let me sleep under the counter of
the merchant and business man
who never advertises. There is
the place that passeth all under
standing, and deep is the sleep in
which neither the buoyant foot
fall ol .youth nor the weary shuf
fle of old age will ever intrude."
A whole volume of grave wisdom
can be found in that extract.
The quietest place on earth is un
der the counter of a non-advertising
establishment. Experience
has long since demonstrated the
fact and now wit has found it
out.
Doesn't Kespect Old Aj;e.
It's shameful when youth fails
to show proper respect for old age
but just the conl rary in the case
of lr. King's New Life Pills.
They cut oft' malarie r.o matter
how severe and irrespective of old
oge. Dyspepsia, jaundice, fever,
and constipation all yield to this
perfect Pill. 25c at W. S. Dick

We keep an army of fi."i,000 men

bug laughs us to scorn. The bug
fumily taxes this great country
$:;ri0,000,000 a year. The worms
that attack the cotton plant as
sess Ihe farmer $00,000,000 a
year. The potato bug eats $H,0(m ),
(KM worth annually out of our
gardens. The chinch bug costs
us $100,000,000, the Hessian fly
$."0,000,000, and the grasshopper
$'.10,000,000. The United States
