THE PASTIME
PARK OPENING
THOUSANDS VISITED THE
GROUNDS SATURDAY.
GRANT BAND PIGWG A SUGGESS
Tho Eleotrlo Railway Did a Tre
mendous Business and tho
Now Park Branch Worked
Very Satisfactorily.
N assemblage such a;
attended tho opening
of Pastime Park, near
Wm. Penn, Saturday,
is seldom seen down
tho valley. Notwith
standing picnics went
held Biraultaneouily
at Turkey Kun, Lost
Crook, Raven Bun
and Girardvilie, people flocked from al
theso points and othor places, includtUK
this town, to Pastimo Park to ehareiin
pleasure affordod by the picnic of the
Grant Band.
Pastime Park is a success. It is a beau
tiful placo molded by nature for a pleasure
resort Its location is suporb. One stand
tag upon the immense dancing platform
can have n splendid viow of the valley.
Looking from the main line of tho olectrh
road ono is led to ridicule tho assertion'
that nature has afforded any shade for the
park, but closer observation shows that one
of the prettiest groves of maple, oak and
chestnut trees , is just whore the park is
locatod. To the west of tho dancing plat'
form thore is a natural terraco upon which
people may ba seated and watch the evoju
tions of ,tho dancers.
The electric railway branch connecting
the park with tho main line was also
opened for tho first time Saturday night,
The branch is about two-thirds of a mile
long. One car was. tun and it made regular
connections with all cars on the main line
going east and west. Tho track is a -little
'stiff" just now, but will bo made peilect
in ft fow days.
Tbo structures now upon the grounds are
tho 8toim carousal, tbo rrjuvenaud Colum
bia dancing platform and several refresh
ment stands. Others will bo added in
time. For tho 6hort period which the
management has had to moke nccommdda.
lions tho work already dona has been
remarkable.
Enough for tho park. Now for the pic
nic. It was one of tho most delightful af
fairs the band hasjaver held. It was also a
splendid financial success. Tbo electric
railway was taxed to its utmost capacity to
get the pooplo there and cars from ail
points wero literally packed. One car that
loft hero at 10 p. m, carried 1S0 passengers.
The people clung to the back and sides of
the cars as flies cling to n molasses barrel.
They were not all men and boys by a long
Bhot. ' Young women were on hand in
large numbers and did not loavo a six-inch
space on tbo car stop unfillod. It was one
of the greatest nights for traffic the road
has yet had and the band had a large pat
ronage from the crowd.
The Union Cornet Band, of ContraliB,
and tho Liberty Band, of Wm. Po.m, were
in attendance. Both played eeveral selec
tions, tho Union band playing on the
dancing platform under tho leadership of
Prof. Zaitz, who is tbo instructor of that
organization as well as tho Grant Band.
The music discoursed by both bunds was
oxcellont and the Grunt Band extends its
inanKB to mora, xno dancing musio was
furnished by tho Schoppe orchestra of ten
pieces and was of tho usual excellent
standard-

The executive committee announced by

faction in all the districts, moro particular
ly as thore are so many now men appoint
ed. Ve are not ready at this time to ques
tion tho wisdom of bis choice. The moro
fact of their being new men Is not sufficient
to condom n them, and If they turn in and
conduct a successful campaign, there
'should be no room for complaint. Those
who wanted to get on and didn't, can con-
solo themselves by the fact that thoy aro
thus roliwod of lots of hard work. Maha

ARGUMENT POSTPONED.
The Injunction Suit Against the Ilorough
Holds l'lio.
The injunction case of the" Shenandoah
Water and Gas Company against this
borough was before the court at Pottsvple
this morning for argument,, but D. , C.
Honning, Ejq., counsel for tho company,
asked for a postponement of thirty days
ponding the fixing of a date for argument,
Tho court granted tho request; This seems
to bo an indication that the caso will not
be arguod before September.
Botough Solicitor Pomoroy then offered
a bond of ?10,000 in behalf of the borough,
tho intention being to secure ox-Stnator
Torbert against damage arising out of the
borough taking the stream and property
thoy want for the proposed public water
works.
D. C. Ecnning, Esq., who is also Mr,
Torbort's attorney, objected to tho bond,
Tho court took tbo bond. An argument on
it will probably be made when the injunc
tion caso cornea up.

Them Learned That it Waa
Quite Sorlous.
jjjj HIS town was thrown
into a stato 01 great
excitement this morn
ing by a report that
there hod boon an ex
plosion of gas in the
vL Ellengowan colllory,
that tho slope bad cavod in and twenty
men bad been killed. A Herald reporter,
accompanied by Clayto. Folmor and B. R.
Severn, drovo to tho colliery and found
that the report was true eo far as it related
to an explosion, but that tho location and
results' were exaggerated.
From, what the Herald report or could
learn only ono man was a victim of the ex
plosion, and he suffered by being closed in
a beading. His name is Gustavo Miskell
and he boards on Popular street, in this
town.
Miskell worked in btoaBt No. 16 of tbo
west mammoth gangway. His "butty"
was not out to-day.
When tho reporter and others stood at
the bead of the shaft Insido Foreman
Brown appeared and ordorod everybody
away. "You aro on tbo company's
grounds," said ho.
Tho ref ortor advanced and said, "Mr.
Brown, Shenandoah is in a state of ex
citement over a report that thero has been a
torriblo explosion in those mines and
have corao to learn thejruth."
"There has been an explosion, but no
body was hurt. There is a man inside,
closed in, but ho is noither burned or hurt."
"How do you know ?"
"I was in thero half an hour ago and
was talking to tho man."
"Did you seo him J"
"No."
The roporter waitod until it wa3 time to
make his return to tho Herald hoping
that Assistant Superintendent Brougball
would come out of tbo mine but ho did
not do so, "
After rocess for dinner the breaker started
up and work went on, including hoisting
out of tho shaft, as if nothing had hap
pened. It was said that this was done to show
the explosion had no serious results.
Miskoll's brother was at the bead of the
shaft aud begged to bo allowed to go down
and help rescue bit brother. He was told
that Gustavo was all right and ordered off
tho grounds with tho rest. He left declare
iug that ho would seo if thero wero not sc mo
moans by which ho could learn moro of his
brother.
Tho Hbrald reportor mot, at somp, dis
tance from tbo shaft, a Polo who bad loft
the mine. He said that the explosion was
moro serious than tho bosses cared to make
known. Ho said" tho explosion occurred in
a breast, but he did not know which ono,
or how It oocunad. Tons upon tons of
coal wero started, ho said, and sovoral
tlnibore In tbo gangway wero bjown our.
The wholo place was choked up, Miskell
was not burned or hurt, ho believed, but
closed In a heading. He feared tho man
would bo eufi'ooated. ,
A report was started that two other moo
were closed in with Miskell. Their namo
wero given as Flanlgan and Broderiok,
but this report was modifiod by a statement
that they wore inside trying to get Miakoll
out.
Up to tho time tho Herald went to
press no additional particulars were re
ceived and tho result teemed to bo as al ready
loarood by tho reporter, that Miskoll waa
doomed to ruffooalion and the tnino was
badly damaged by the oxph sion.
