Q A. R. Tho fair opened last night and
although tho rain deterred many people from
leaving their homos, qulto n number made
their way to eco tho treat preparod by tho
veterans and their wires anil daughters.
Tho hall is elaborately decorated witlt the
national colors in forms ot flags, bunting and
banners, and alovo tho inner entrance, along
tho galleries and ahovo and about the booths
thero is an abundauco of beautifully colored
streamers and wreaths. Theio aro soven

with everything imaginable pleasing to the
eye, and suitablo for household pur.
poses, large, conifortablo rocking chairs
of tho latest style, handsome rugs,
beautiful satin, silk and plush pillows,
lovely pictures anil frames, novoltios
for tho mantel, great old fashioned quilts,
clocks, and an innumerable quantity of other
articles, besido wearing apparel lor tho young
and old hang about the booths and rest upon
tho tables. One of tho featuros of tho con'
fectionory booth is a large, handsomely or
namented fruit cake donated by W. V. Ottc
tho confectioner. Several tempting offers
for this cake were refused last night because
tho management has not decided upon
method for disposing of It. It has been
suggested that it be offered as a prize for
grand cake walk.
The booths are arranged on tho north and
south sides of the hall and aro in charge of
tho following committees: Stand No. 1, Mrs.
Sarah Richards, Sirs. Lizzio Tosh and lire,
Lena Shauo. No. 2, Mrs. Cafsio Lewis. Mrs,

All these ladles aro members of the
Women's Relief Corps, which is auxiliary to
tho G. A. It., or tho Ladies' Aid Society,
auxiliary to the Sons of Veterans, and they
havo worked hard to make tho fair attractive
for everybody In order that tho receipts may
be swelled to tho highest figure possible and
tho widows' and orphans' fund of tho G. A.
R. may bo substantially replenished.
Last night the Grant Band volunteered its
sorvices and announced the opening of tho
fair by giving a street parado and a concert
at the hall. Tho Grant Baud is ono, of the
warmest friends tl)e veterans havo and it
showed this last night by giving an excellent
programme of music.
In order to add to tho attractions tho
management of tho fair has arranged to
give an entertainment' on tho stago every
evening, for which no extra charge will bo
made.
Those who may doslro refreshments whilo
at tho fair will And an abundant supply of
that good, old fashioned, 6avory, Grand
Army style of bean soup which is nicely
Berved by a committee of the, veterans and
tho Women's Relief Corps.
Two things which attracted much attention
on the stago last night were a handsome
portrait of tho lamented old war veteran,
Wiuflcld Scott Hancock, which Tested in a
beautiful framo and was presented by
Comrade W, A. Keagoy, tho photographer,
and a "Standard" sewing machine plated
thero by T.B. Shaffor. All patrons of the fair
will have a chance to sccuro tho picture and
machine.
One of the handsome rocking chairs on
exhibition was donated by J. P. Williams &
Son.
As an additional inducement to patrons the
management of the fair presents to each
visitor upon entering a numbered ticket and
before the fair closes each evening one
holder of such tickets receives a handsome
prize, .which was in the form of an order for
a ton of coal last night and Mrs. John
Daddow, of North Jardln street, held the
lucky ticket.

HIS morning tho galo
playod havoc with one
of the steeples of the
Lithuanian church on
South Jaidln street.
The galo toyed about
tho steeplo for some
tlmo as a cat plays with
u mouse. It blew ono
way and theu another,
in-Bhoots and out-shoots followed each
other rapidly and tho cross and sphore
upon tho top of tho steeplo swayed
dangerously to and fro until suddenly thero
was a crack and then they flow from their
fastenings and dropped to tho ground,
Fortunatoly no one had tho raisfortuno to
pass the church at tho time. Wo havo had
two good galos this season and two spheres
and crosses have disappeared from tho
Lithuanian church steeples. Some of our
townsmen expressed tho opinion to day that
it would not require a hurrloano to bring tho
wholo structure down. Tho fact is that lu
tho construction of that church tho promo
tors havo tried to erect tho largest church in
town on a fund only largo enough for a
structure half the sizo and tho result is that
the buildiuK is looked upon as u weak
kneod gigantic nothing. At a distance it
looks liko a brick structuro with brown stone
trimmings and towers, whilo it is only framo
witli a covering of some kind of metal plates
to represent stono and brick. All tho
residents in tho vicinity of tho church
look upun the Btructuro as a menace to
tho town. In esse of fire It would
bo a mero tinder-box and judging from the
promptness witli which tho ornaments havo
been dropping off thero is good reason for be-
lieving that some day there will bo a tumble
that will cause injury to limb or lots of life
that will run up a good-sized bill of damages
against the owners of tho church. This
structure is sufficient proof that it is better to
spuud money in substantial structural than to
dump it in empty ornaments.
The galo got the largo tin hat of Morgan
the hatter, on Us back this morning and
can led it down Main street at a terrific gate.
Tho chapoau was tocovered and as the hatter
struggled back to tho store with it he looked
much liko the familiar figures in the Dcino-
critic illustrated papers representing ex
President Harrison and tho ancient grand
father houdgear.
Ono of the show windows of Scheidor'i
restaurant on East Centra strcot was shut
tend by tho galo tills morning.
Shortly beforo noon the tin wasswept from
the roofs aud tho dwellings nud warehouse
on Market alley, below Cherry street, owned
by the Bradigau Bros. Most of the tin was
swept to tho ground. The rest was held to
tho roof by 6trips.
At about the same time tho tin roof of the
rookery on tho sito of tho old skating rink,
at the lowor end of Main street, waeswopt off
aud part of it was carried to the Lehigh Val
ley railroad tracks.
Fortunatoly none of tho bodies swept by
tho gale injured any pedostrians.
The young daughter of Mrs. Gregory got
caught in a, galo on West Centre street at
noon. She was knocked down and rolled
over and over on tho pavement for a distance
of several yards but escaped injury.
A woman struggled along Main street with
a basket, a roll of wall paper and an um
brella. She was in a bad fix until P. J. Fer
guson towed her into a port of safety.
This afternoon tho pedestals at the base of
the Lithuanian church steeples were rocking
to and fro in such a manner that it was
momentarily expected they would fall Into
the street.

Among other reproduction is a representation
of an engino room on a Mississippi river

Tho filing of a decision in tho witter coir
pnny case was a surprite to many cf our oltt"
Bens. The case ilrsggid along for to many
months hefbre argument that the people
would not havo wondered If tho end had
been put off until noxt summer. TIs well.
howover, that the end is hore, for It has al
ready been a source of muoli expense and
embarrassment to all concerned.
Tho attention of tho borough authorities
may as woll bo oallod now as a weok hence
that the old-time obnoxious "street walking"
custom Is becoming too conspicuous. Several
months ago when the newspapers attacked
this evil It was cried down because certain
peoplo thought that if tho parties complained
of behaved themselves no one could justly
find fault and, in tho eyes of tiiese cham
pions, tho bohavior was such as not to pro
voke censure. Notwithstanding this chain.
pionshlp tho articles had their effect and tho
women complained sought and kept their
haunts. With the thawing of tho lost
rcmuants of winter nud tho budding of
Bpriug tho street walking fraternity seems to
havo taken roncwed courago and their
rambles are becoming moro frequent than
tho moro morally inclined peoplo of tho
town aro disposed to relish, therefore it has
become necessary to again souud tho warning
cry, "Keep off the streets." And, unless
somoof tho peoplo in town who have be.
como so degraded that caro neither for thoir
own reputation or tho feelings of thoso
who havo involuntarily boeomo residents
of thoir vicinity, become moro discreet, they
will roceivo tho samo attention as those
would audaciously advertise thomeelves on
the pavemonts. Judging from tho complaints
already made to tho Hkiiai.d the people of
this town aro by no nieatiB disposed to tolerate
houses which the occupants seem anxious to
havo branded as nosts of prostitution. One.

In commenting upon a petition for a saloon
for Hungarians in Bratldoek Judge Magefl
significantly remarked that the court had
not yet been asked to Ucen"o an Amehoan to
keep a saloon for Americans. Tho Judge saw
at a glanco tho tendency of tho request mado
of tho court, which must be also seen by
every person convcrtant with the clanuishuess
of foreign residents. Separate saloons provo
poworiul factors in preventing that assimila
tion of foreign elements into American citi
zenship, by affording places whore foreigners
may congregate and perhaps plot and plan,
yet fortunatoly for Shenandoah the grunting
of such liceuses has not had the effect that
au exchange Eoems to dread when it says,
"Think of such dens being labelled: 'Hun
garian Saloon,' 'Polish Saloon,' 'Bohemian
Saloon,' Ac We have a number of saloons
labelled iu that manner. One of them, on
Maitr street, has before it a sign reading,
"Ltetuwinku Saluuas," which reads when
translated, "Lithuanian Saloon."
A lawyor has expressed the opinion that
there will be more business failures in Shen
andoah by the first of noxt January tlutn
theie have been iu any previous year. This
prediction he based upon the distorted rela
tions which now exist between many of the
merchants and the wholesale houses. He
said the repeated failures among the foreign
class of business men is ruining the credit of
the town aud the lines drawn by the whole
salers are being drawn so tight that many of
the people who would prosper with honest
and fair oompetitiou ara tempted to follow in
the footsteps of the foreign sharpers. The
lawyer also stated that it is surprising that
the wholesalers aud their agents havo not
long since been able to distinguish the honest
merchant from tho man who seems to make
a point of failure after a briof business
career and with a largo stock on hand. Some
of the tactics of tho foreigners who havo
failed in this town the past few years, ho
said, have been disreputable in the extreme,
but the men have always successfully sur
rounded themselves with legal teohnisallties
and escaped imprisonment. Ohm.
