This is the pleasant assurance which can be given vacationists if the prog nostications of the Weather Man and the historic legend of old St. Swithin are to be relied upon. Yesterday was St. Swithin's Day, and tradition hits it that the condition of the weather for the uext forty days depends on whether or not rain falls ou St. Swithiu's day. And the weather man said it would be clear. Umbrellas, rain coats and rubber shoes may be safely stowed away iu double layers of Camphor.say the sup eistitious, and the man with tho im itation Panama may venture forth without fear of having his headgear wilted out of shape. The fair maiden with the paper hat that looks like straw, may also feel assured that no rain clouds will dare thrust them selves above the horizon in defiance of St. Swithiu's decree. Put although the Weather M;ui has promised a large share of sunny days, he is unable to say that the cool weath er will last. In the forecast which was seut out from Washington Tuesday uight, slowly rising temperature was predicted without any venture as to where it will stop, it is possible that therw may be a return to the toriid weather of last week with its record of deaths and prostrations.

Uail'S Family Fills are the bent. Wives Work in Fields. Centre county farmers were never before so crippled for help as now. The lateness of tho season has brought the bulk of the work to be done at one time. Harvest hands are very scarce, and iu some places farmers are oflering s:i per day and board tor men to help with the harvest and haymak ing, and can't get hands even at that tigare. Iu fact, so scarce is help that the farmers' wives and daughters are compelled togo out iu the fields and help harvest the crop. It is not an un usual sight to see from three to a half dozen men and an equal number of women working side by side iu the fields this year, aud even with this help the farmers are going to bn hard put to get through with all their work in seasou. As to the crops, iu most parts of the couuty they are very good, above the average crop Hot Days and Ooutagiou. The hot summer days will be pro ductive of some forms of contagious diseases if care is not taken in the disposal of garbage and the preserva tion of sanitary conditions about the yards and in the houses. Drains should be flushed,, chlorides and oth er disinfectants should be freely used, while h.'Hp, witer aud fresh air must be permitted to play their part iu the prevention of disease. When a disease case comes that re qui res the enforcement of the quaran tine, the utmost care should be t*ken iu the methods of fumigation. To Dive Through Flame. Prosper Warg, aged »i years was fatally burned while imitating a high diver who was at liazleton recently with a carnival company Young Warg saturated his clothing with kero sene, ai his examplar had done, then he pretended to dive from the rear porch of his home in a blaze. When the match was applied the lad's clothes became a mass of tf.tiiics He screamed iu terror, and Jennie Predbeuuer, a l. r » year old girl, clam bered out on the |xirch and after sus tain,ug severe burns, herself smother ed the flames.

Gretna, July 15. —Governor Peunypaeker upon liis ariival in the camp tomorrow even ing will be accorded the honor of salute of twenty-one gum by United States art illery and should the hour ,1)0 seasonable enough to permit, the entire brigade will be lined up in the held in his honor. With a view of rounding them into form as quietly as possible for the in spection, the hoys were engaged in all kinds of drills today and there was little leisure time anywhere. Bat talion drills 111 extended order, out post duty and skirmish lines were practieed all morning and regimental drill ami brigade evolutions were the order of the afternoon. The soldiers are rapidly becoming acclimated and accustomed to the outdoor work and by Thursday will be ready tor the tedium of inspection. Captain Beau's Battery O guuuers in their practice with the Gat ling guns yesterday afternoon made some record-breaking shots with the infan try amunition and literally tore the 4x4 target to pieces at SOU yards. The practice was so gratifying that the entire battery was taken out this after noon to qualify in revolve! marksman ship. Several cases of ivy poisoning were reported in Colonel Clement's Twelfth Regiment today, hut the spread of the affection was quickly checked and no dangerous results are anticipated. The general conditions at the camp are healthful. Captain Reynolds of the United States Hospital Corps, encamped here this morning commenced instructing the hospital corps of the several regi meuts. The sergeants were given a lesson in drilling the men in foot movements and calisthenics. Major G H. Halberstadt, the staff surgeon, has all the regimental surge ons and assistant surgeons summoned to witness the instruction and Gen eral Gobin and members of his staff were also interested spectators, the drill taking place in front of brigade headquarters. Ordinarily the privates assigned to duty at the regimental hospitals do not accompany their com panions in the held and the drill 1111 der regular army sergeants this morn ing was somewhat of a revelation and all were ready to quit the job when time was up.

Imperiled by the Storm. 1 Mrs. John Hawkins, West Hemlock township, on returning from market, '■ ■ Saturday, met with a very narrow es- j i capo. She was overtaken by the storm j I just as she reached the farm of Samuel j Pursuit. In order to find shelter she I ! drove into the wagon shed adjoining ' j the barn She had just got under cov- ! er when the storm broke and a portion I of the baru roof which was ripped lose j ! by the wind fell covering the very en trance to the building over which she j had passed only a moment before. ! Mr. Pursell had just stored away his i ; wheat in the barn and during the | j heavy down pour of rain it was expos- | 1 ed, receiving a thorough drenching. Five large trees were blown down on the farm of Hiram Sandel. Trees j were also blown down on the farm of I William Moore and much damage done | the crops at both places. I Abolishes Brakemeu. No longer does the Philadelphia and 1 Reading Railway have brakemeu on I its passenger trains. That company j tias abolished the brakeman as a relic j of early-time railroading, when the j old link couplings jolted passengers j unmercifully and strong arms were wont to apply hand brakes at every stop. There were four hundred brakemeu employed 011 the Reading system. Now there is not one 011 the payroll in the passenger service. But the men are still there. By an official edict, accompanied by a change of caps,every one of the four hundred has been trans ferred from a "brakeman" into a "trainman." By direction of the State dairy and food authorities at Harrishurg, Pure Food Commissioner Robert M. Sim mers, of Phoenixville, and Special Agent Venn, of Shamokin, were in Sunbury yesterday and sampled the milk sold 011 the streets. No arrests were made, hut the samples secured were forwarded to the State chemist, who will report on their quality. If any impurities exist prosecutions will follow.

It seems that last May the Federa tion adopted a rule forbidding atliliut ed bands to march 111 procession or in any manner take part in ceremonies in which the Marine Band participated. This sweeping order was modified, in order to accommodate the management of the St. Louis Exposition. As modi fied, union hands were forbidden to march in procession with the Marine Band, except upon occasions when escorting the President of the United States. Contracts were made by the Baltimore Elks with bands of that city, and the latter, learning the Marines were to escort the Washington branch have given notice that they will not participate if the marines are to be employed This notification has been met by the Klks with the reply that if the hands refuse to adhere to their contracts suits will be brought in the courts. The Washington Elks have decided to adhere to their con tract with the marines regardless of what may be done by the civilian bands. The chairman of the commit tee said Tuesday: "The Marine Baud will parade in Baltimore with the Washington Elks on Wednesday if it is the only hand in the parade. Our contract with the Marine Band was made in February, and we intend to stand by it. "What is more, these bands have signed contracts with the Elks and if they insist upon obeying the order which says they shall not parade with the Marine Band they will be sued for damage."

Some of the rural school hoards liud it difficult to get teachers for all the schools within their jurisdiction. Salaries paid are so low that tew skill ed instructors rare to undertake the task of imparting education to the younger generation. This difficulty will continue until salaries shall ha\< been increased as designed by the last Legislature. Grain prices are decreasing in the West but the wages of harvest hands continue at the top notch and men are still in great demand in Kansas. The trouble is that after tho harvest is over there will lie nothing for them to do and the expenses of escape will ah sorb the profit of the transaction.

The official bul letin was anxiously awaited and when given out shortly after It o'clock this morning it showed that the Pontiff had remained stationary at the lowest level of vitality he has yet reached. This morning bis heart and half of each lung continue to work, but these and an occasional bright flash of mental vitality are the only signs that life still remains in his body. Other wise His Holiness is in the grip of senile dissolution.lt is now stated that senile decay,and not pneumonia, will be given as the actual cause of his death. Gas Ranges are Fashionable.
