In the second story of the building for the aoute insane male patients the bricklayers completed laying up the two-inch tiie on the inside of the ex posed walls last week, and it is there that the plasterers will begin work as soon as they arrive. Tiiis week the bricklayers will lay up tile on tiie first story and have that portion of the building ready for plastering as soon, or before, the upper story is complet ed. This plastering will he in charge of a foreman that will arrive from Buf falo today. Although the wall surface to be plastered in the aggregate is very extensive, yet it will not be ex pedient to employ a very large| force of plasterers;»t one time—probably not more than ten or a dozen; otherwise, the carpenters and bricklayers finish ing up before them will not be able to keep out of tbeir way. The slaters last week finished work on the building for the acute insane female patients and this week will be gin slating on the corresponding build ing on the male side where plastering will be under way. It will thus be ob served how rapidly this building is approaching completion, the design being to have it roady for occupancy the first of fall, to the end that pati ents may be transferred to it from the male infirmary while the latter build ing is being remodeled, yet this fall. The carpenter work on the female in firmary is being carried rapidly to completion. The artistic observation tower that now surmounts the roof is a new feature that strikes the eye of the visitors and adds very much to the building from an architectural point of view.

Miller Saturday morn ing weighed the butter that was ex posed for sale in the curbstone market. Although a few rolls were found slightly short of what they were rep resented to weigh yet the result on the whole was sufficient to establish the fact that as far as it relates to butter the patrons of the curbstone market are getting about what they pay for. There had been some complaint on the score of short weight. On Satur day the week previous a roll of butter was plaoed in the hands of Mr. Miller which it was claimed was deficient in weight. It was reweighed by the market master and was found to con tain a trifle less than fourteen ounces instead of a full pound as represented. The man who sold the butter ex plained that it belonged to a neighbor woman and that he was merely selling her butter as an accommodation. He putin a good word for the woman's honesty, explaining that he believed that her sole mistake consisted in us ing a spring balance or some other kind of scales not wholly reliable. The market master accepted the explana tion as plausible and the matter was dropped. To determine how the weight would hold out generally jt was decided to reweigh the butter offered for sale last Saturday. In the majority of in- j stanoes the butter not only held out j but slightly overran in weight, lu several instances, it is true, it did not hold out, but the deficiency was so! small—only the fraction of an ounce— that it did not seem likely that there I was any intention to defraud. Under i the ordinance the market master could , have seized the butter found deficient < | in weight; but after giving the parties i a little friendly admonition he per mitted them to retain the butter. " The farmers seemed to meet the market master in the right .spirit, ap proving seemingly his efforts to en force the rules and regulations of market. The market master says he feels convinced that in the majority of instances the weight slightly over ran. All of which speaks very well for the venders as a whole. Tests here after will be made regularly. Will Interest flany Every person should know that good health is impossible if the kidneys are deranged.

Ohas. Heffner, jby Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Moser,of which j mention was made in these columns | two weeks ago, has proved catchiug. ! This time it was Mr. and Mrs. Kd i ward Oyster of near Washingtonville who made the excellent host and host ess by pleasantly entertaining a num ber of their co-workers in the church and a few other friends on Friday evening of last week. This time not 1 only the pastor but all the other guests | were completely "puzzled" and for a I while everybody seemed to be hard at I work trying to solve one of the num i erous ingenious mechauical puzzles of I which Mr. Oyster seemed to have made j a hobby. It was really amusing to hear now and then a shout of triumph as a guest had solved his or her puz i zl«, while gloomy dispair on their fu .es, others reluctantly gave up the struggle. A great relief,however,came to such when the guesis were invited into the dining room to take part in solving the greatest puzzle of the even* i ing, namely, how to make disappear a ; sumptuously laden table, and verily, i every one proved a master in this form of magic judging by the way so many I juicy chickens were made pass out of sight. The rest of the eveuing was spent in further visiting and singing after which the quests took leave of 1 their generous host and hostess, again j all unanimous in their verdict that j they had spent a most pleasant evening 1 together Those present were : Rev. !

BASS DRIVEN OUT_OF CANAL Operations on the canal above town continue to attract orowds of people daily, the big steam dredge being the center of interest. The dredging is completed from the gas house, the upper boundary of the hospital ground, to the culvert at the entrance to the hospital, nearly one half of the whole distance to be dredg ed. Tiie work is being pushed forward as rapidly as possible. The crew on the dredge did not observe Labor day but improved the time by pulling mud out of the canal at the rate of nearly a hundred buoketfuls an hour. By the end of this week, if nothing causes delay,the dredging will be well nigh completed. Iu the upper section of the canal there was a considerable quantity of water, which had lain there ever since the canal was abandoned. When the dredge began work it was necessary to break the dam at the gas house. As a result a great deal of the water drain ed eastward reaching the river through Toby run. Iu the residue of water that remains there are found to be a large number of fish, which no one ever dreamed be fore existed there.The dredgimen have a buckot with them iu which may al ways bo seem some fine specimens of fish Not ouly are carp, &c., but also black bass found in the canal, j Although the water in that part of j the canal was always more or less im pure, yet the bass seem to have thriv ed. Since the dredge has stirred up ! the mud, however, those that remain i sliow discomfort. j The other day H. B. Schultz, stew ard at the hospital, saw a big black I bass, which acted very much as if it | were out of its element. The fish, I which was some sixteen inches iu j length, was floundering about in the canal, occasionally leaping above tiie surface of the water. Iu this connection it might be in teresting to note that many persons incline to the theory that tiie big school of blaak bass seen at the river bridge Sunday, August 30th, and de scribed in these columns later, were fish that had found their way out of the canal above town. The peculiar movements of the Ush are attributed to tiieir bewildered state caused by their sudden trausit from the narrow aud murky oanal to the cool aud ex pansive river with its channels of deep water.

ALUMNI HAD BIG PICNIC, The alumni picnic and dance at De ' Witt's park Friday was an unquali- i fled success, fulfilling all expectations of the committee in charge. The weather, as though doing its best to help along the event, was per fect. The crowd began to Rather about 2 , o'olook, the haoks being kept in com mission continually from that time on, depositing alumni and their friends on the grounds. Besides those who rode a large number from Riverside and South Danville walked to the park. By 6 o'olock there were upwardH of 250 people on the grounds, mostly alumni, enthusiastic over the oppor tunity afforded to again mingle with former classmates and recall the in cidents, pleasant and otherwise, of school life. As though drawn together by the magnetic influence of old com- ! paniouships it was noticeable that here and there all over the park were to be seen the different classes in groups, some, of the more recent years, large, j and others whose numbers during the j ten or twenty years that have elapsed sinco their graduation had dwindled to a very few. There was one exception, however, ' that speaks well for the enthusiasm of the older grads. The class of '59 had a representation of five present and many were the congratulations shower ed upon them from all sides. ; A register was stationed on the pay- 1 | i 1 ion in which were entered the name, year and address of all present. The book will serve both as a record of those in attendance at this, the first annual outing and as a list to whom invitations may be sent next year, ! when an effort will be made to have ! oven a larger number of the alumni ; present ! ' Dancing was the feature of the day, j j beginning at 3 o'clock and continuing j ! afternoon and evening with an interval of two hours for supper. And that supper! The affair was in the hands of | the Ladies' Aid sooiety of St. Peter's I M. 15. church, of Riverside, and to | quote one of those present who ougiit to know. "There never was such a quantity and quality servad for such I a small amount. " j A half hour after supper, between 7 | ! aud T :30 o'clock, was occupied by an entertainment on the pavilion consist | ing of monologues, solos,instrumental music, etc. The continued applause which greeted each number testified ; to the thorough enjoyment of the audi j ence. After that there was more danc -1 ing which continued until about 11 :30 I o'clock, when tired but tilled to over- I flowing with the pleasurable memories of the outing, the crowd sought their ' | homes. II From the enthusiasm manifested at | yesterday's affair it is safe to predict that the alumni association has come to stay and that the reunion each year will be more and more of a success. CAIAWISSA MAS MOUNTED POLICE 1 Catawissa is the only town in this 1 section of the State that can boast of having a mounted policemau. Chief of Police H. A. Hartman of that I town, every night about 9 o'clock ap pears upon the streets mounted upon his horse fully equipped for patrol duty. At one side of the saddle hangs a holster containing a modern 32 cali ber revolver and upon the other side lone holding his nigiit club. The anim al is trained so that Mr. Hartman can 1 J dismount and go anywhere and be j sure to find his horse just where he ( left him. This 1b done by use of a j neck strap, one end of which is drop- I ped upon the grouud by Mr. Hartman wheu he dismounts. Until that end is | takeu up aud tied to the saddle the 1 horse will not move from the spot. In I this way the chief is enabled to cover i four times the territory he could on foot.
