The Soldiers' Monument Association Win
Oruil7el Lust Night,
The committee appointed last Friday
night by "Watkin Wutora Post, No. HO
G. A. R., met last night in tho offlco of
Mr. S A. Beddall and took steps to elicit
the co-oporation of tho citizens and sovoral

present were MessrB. S A. Beddall, David
Morgan, "William Maley, Joseph Daddow
and H. 0. Boyer.
In exchanging viows on the movoraont
tho members of tho comtnitteo said that
great intorest is being taken in it by the
citirons and tho prospects for general co
operation and ultimato success are vory
encouraging. It was also stated that the
poople aro unanimously of tho opinion that
tho town should havo a soldiers' monument
and that tho great majority favor a site in
tho town.
Tho committee then proceeded to or
ganlze. S. A. Beddall was made chairman
and H. 0. Boyer secretary.
The committee then decided to invito all
societies of tho town to appoint a represon
tativo to servo on a committeo of tho whole.
It was also decided to invite tho Fresi
dents of tho Borough Council and School

Tribute,
While it is over thirty years ago sinco
Allcock's Porous Plasters weie first intro
duced to the medical profession and public,
tho marked success and unprecedented
popularity which thoy havo met with not
only continues, but steadily Increasos. No
other plasters havo been produced which
gain so many testimonials of high value as
those continuously accorded to Allcock's
PQrous Plastors, and the only motive for
these exceptional tributes lies In the fact
of their being a medicinal and pharmaceu
tical preparation of superior valuo. Addi
tional proof of tbo true valuo of Allcock's
Porous Plasters lies in tho fact that they
are being largely Imitated by unscrupulous
persons, who seek to deceive tho publio by
offering plasters which thoy claim to be tho
"same," "equal," "as good," "better,"
"best porous plasters," etc., while it is in
genoral appearance only that thoy resemble
Allcock's, Every 6ne of the so-called
porous plastors aro imitations of Allcock's
Porous Plasters. Avoid doalors who at
tompt to palm off inferior and worthless
plasters that aro purchased by them at low
rates for the purpose of substitution.

POLITICAL LETTER
A GENERAL REVIEW OF THE
FIELD.
EXCEEDINGLY QUIET CAMPAIGN
Our Staff Correspondent Treats
tho Impending Political Battlo
Intelligently With Somo
Special References.
Special Correspondence to the nicitALD.
Pottsville, Oct. i.
HE remark is gener
ally mado in all circlos,
in which yojr corres
pondent has circulated,
both north and south
of tho mountain, that
thero never was a
quieter and unoxcitcd
campa'?n in this
county before in any
Presidential year, so that news gatherers
aro put to their wits ends to collate what thoy
do get. In all my experience I know of
no calmer period four weeks before election
day. Thore is plenty of talk and conjec
ture in private circlos, but it seems to .ba
understood that there will bo little or no
parading and that the flash and fuss of tho
torchlight parado is gone forever.
THE JUDICIAL CONTEST.
Yet there ia always something now to say
politically. As soon as it becamo to be ap
parent that Mr. Ryon's boom had come to
stay and tint tho Democracy had milch to
fear from it, trionds of our candidate, Mr.
Koch, took heart and from that lime for
ward ho wa3 considered more than a possi
bility and that his chances were in tho as
cendancy. This is still the situation of af
fairs as I regard It, after considerable mov
ing about and many talks with many poo
plo. Hero and there ono is met who
expresses tho view that Mr Ryon is lead
ing in tho race, while thero aro many wbo
think that Judge Pershing will succeed
himself. How Mr. Ryon can tako any
considerable number of Democratic votes
and leavo Judge Pershing anything to
build a hope on, is beyond comprehension,
unless the old boast that the Republicans
will rush to his support and leave a man
they have every reason to stand by,
BRUMM AND KKILLT.
In tho Congressional race there is much
activity. Mr. Brumm Is making one of his
old timo canvasses, speaking frequently at
meetings and strenuously working a still
hunt at tho came time. His meeting in
your town this evoning is looked forward to,
it is learned, with great expectation. The
opinion is oxprossod that Reilly's action in
not accepting his challenge to take the
stump with him has irjured the latter very
materially. Tho old time Democracy who
always Bupport Reilly no mattor what his
action may bo, spurn tho idea of hia boing
Injured at all, but it ia well known that
Mr. Brumm's'past successea have boon won
by tho inroads ho mado in the ranks of the
Democratic -workingmen and they do not
like Mr. Reilly's action in not accepting
his opponent's challenge, and will in many
parts of the county fly Reilly and go to
Brumm if tho present mombor dooa not
beforo long tako up the challenge.
THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYSHIP.
J. H. James, Esq., won before in a con
tost for District Attorney with tho aid of
Mr. Brumm. If Brumm ia successful
again you may put it down that James will
win also. James has many elomonts of
personal strength himself that nocandidato
on either ticket possesses. Ho is not only
very able, but kind and affable at all times
with many ot the talents which men
socially inclined liko in an official. He has
no vices, largo or small, and can at
onco bo tho most lively man at a
gathering of friends while ho main
tains the dignity of a well-read, good law
yor and genial gentleman. As a genoral
favorite no man in Schuylkill county ia his
peer. "We predict for Mr. James onough
votes to carry him through. But ho has
no moan antagonist in James W. It) an,
Esq. The lattor is also a good lawyer and
woll-llked. Ho differs greatly from Mr.
James, particularly In his way with the
men most mot with In the courts. But ho
is quiet, unassuming and cordial and by no
means a candidate unworthy of contesting
against.
He has 'a largo acquaintance and a host of
family connections who will all mako it
their especially concern to givo Jimmy a
good boast. ' It will bo a tidal wave that
will beat, him if beaton at all, added to tho
ehortago in tho vote under the Baker ballot
law, which Is as sure to come as tho day of
oloctlon Is euro to dawn, and in Domocratlo
counties such as Schuylkill this shortage
wil) hurt tho dominant party more than
ours. Tills la conceded.
PERSONAL.
If that gonial and accomplished gentle
man and speaker, Goneral Hastings, fails
to connect at Shenandoah to-night you will
mlH a rich and raro treat. Ho is ono of
tho best In the political roatrum.
I noto that John A. Sullivan, Esq., of
this town, lawyer and inturanco agent, is
in Shenandoah soliciting insuranco. John
is a hustler and will succeed.
R. H. Koch, Esq., Is miking an un
usually good canvau. He understands it
better than any of the others.
Expect to hear ono of Mr, Brumm's best
oflorts at your meeting to-night. N,
Why weary your throat and patience with
that wretched cough when a bottle ol Dr. Bull's

The residence of Mr. and Mrs. "William
Willtnan, on North Jardin street, was tho
scene of a most enjoyable party last even
ing. It was Mr. Willtnan's thirty-second

by tondering him a surprise, by the pre
sentation of a slight token of their esteem
in tho shapo of an elegant 10th century
rocking chair, upholstered in leather.
Rev. O' Boyle presented tbo gift in hi
usual happy style, and Mr. Willman was
so greatly taken by stirpriso that ho could
only express his sincere thanks, but ho and
bis amiable wife showod their appreciation
by tho mannor in which they entertained
tho guests and caused the evening to pass
ao pleasantly that all regretted the hour of
departure. Vocal and instrumental music,
games, &c, were indulged in until 12
o'clock, when the party sat down to a
table laden with tho delicacies of the sea
son, and to which all did ample justice.

As a Tammany supporter, wo stick to tho
truths enunciated at the Chicago Conven

and the eignors of tho Now York protest
against Cleveland's renomination. Others
may havo changed their minds, or may
appear to have changed their minds, but

Excellent In nil liespects,
Professor George Bartholomew at Fer
gusoa's thoatre last night illustrated before
a largo audionce what patience and kind
ness can accomplish. It was an excellent
object lesson and tho largo number of
clergymen and school teachers present!
evinced their appreciation of It by frequent
outbursts of enthusiastic applausa. Prof.
Bartholomew vory proporly claims that his J
horses aro not trained, but educated. They
are marvellously educated and go through
their programme liko human beings. A I
striking feature of tha exhibition is that '
the horsea are not lod into their acts by the
use of the whip. Thoy act upon a word J
from their educator and frequently during; '
the evening, "do their turns" voluntarily, i
and upon no sign or signal. The horses are
the best that have ovor Visited this section.
Tho large audionto was unanimous in 1
lis endorsement of tho entortalnmont
last night and tho engagement promises to
boa very successful ono. Prof. Bartholo
mew also has with him an oxcollont band
and orchestra. Tho selections rendered
botweon acts last night woro excellent and
called forth liberal applause. It ia evident
that considerable attention has boon given
to thls branch of tho entertainmont. Prof.
