tions the railroad companies will have largo
crowds from all points to handlo and tho
votorans will be accompanied by many people
who aro not connected with tho G. A. It., but
who will mako tho trip simply to seo tho
demonstration.
Tho approacli of tho ovent has been looked
upon with much pleasure by tho mombors of
Watkin Waters Post, No. 14(1, of town, and
they will go in a body to tho grand rally of
old defenders of tho Union. Tho members
of this Post take tbo view that tho tiino is
not far distant when all tho veterans of tho
war will have answered tho final roll call and
then Grand Army Day, which is distinctively
a creation of tho veterans as members of tho
Grand Army and Is sustained sololy by their
own efforts, will in all probability boconio
day of loss thought than it is nt present,
much like Washington's birthday; and that
whllo tbo votcraus aro able to travel and
enjoy such ovents they should oxort them
selves to attend in largo numbers and mako
tho day as brilliant as possible
This view is not maiatalned solely in
Shenandoah, howover. Mahanoy City, Ash
land, Glrardville, Tamaqua and Pottsvllle, no
doubt prompted by tho same motive, will also
cend largo delegations to Allentown and in
some instances will bo almost fully repre
sented. Allentown reports state that tho city has
xnado elaborate preparations for tho reception
of tho veterans and will givo them a royal
tirno. Tho G. A. It. will have tho freo
dom of tho city to-morrow.

The Wroiig Dog
Yesterday afternoon Chief Burgess Burns
had his attention drawn to a number of dogs
running from ono end of tho town to another
and ho concluded to take tho leader in
custody. Health Officer Miles volunteered
assistance and they opened tho gate at the
side of the borough building with tho inten
tion of driving tho dog through it. When
the dog got half way through it changed its
mind and ran back between tho legs of the
chiof officer of the town, who started on a
run In chase, Officer Miles following aud
shouting encouragement. The Burgess had a
ropo in his hands and declared be would
lasso that canluo or resign his office. After
running half a dozen squaros aud turning
twice as many corners the pursuers espiod a
dog crouching under a porch. "Keep away!"
shouted Burns to Miles, "I've got him."
With a noat toss of the ropo tbe noose was
thrown around tho dog's neck and tho Bur
gess started to lead the prisoner. Suddenly
Milt broke into laughter. "What's tho
matter with you?" asked Burns, "Havo you
got a fit?" "No," responded Miles, "You
have tho wrong dog." It was true. During
the chase tho dogs got mixed aud tho oue
Burns had at the end of tho rope was not tho
oue wautcd. The Burgess released tho
prisoner aud walked off with tho Health
Officer grumbling that the more a man trios
to do his duty the more the fatos work
against him.

A limit It,
Colonel M. P. Fowler is homo fiom tho
World's Fair after having a good time and
soolng ouo hundred cents' worth for every
dollar ho spent. Ho is bubbling ovor with
information and has a full supply on tap for
broakfast, dinner and supper. Ho wont to
the Fair to seo tho sights, aud ho saw them;
and ho was not Imposed upon, cither, for tho
Colonel "knows a thing or two," as the song
goes. Ho had been thero before.
But," said Col. Fowlor last night, as ho
drew his breath aftor tolling of tho woudors
In tho mines and mining building, and at tho
same time gave "Bob" Oliver tho wink,
"sightseeing at tho World's Fair soon bo-
comes tircsomo, tho novcltlos of thoPlalsanco
commonplace, and even tho dizzy dances of
tho Midway pall upon tho avorago appetite.
When all thoso fail, a study of tho crowds
absorbs Intcrost. I'll tell you somothiug,
however, aud don't you givo mo uway. I
went to tho vlllago of Dahomey aud (would
you beliovo it?) ono of tho dusky rascals
recognized mo. Ho said ho was in Shenan
doah about fivo years ago with 'Billy, tho
bootblack,' and seemod quito anxious to
know how 'Billy' was. Another follow who
hadn't enough clothing ou him to cover a
good sized watermelon wanted to know if
old Harry Bay was still living iu Tamaqua.
But in tho Irish village I had tho fun. I
met some of "Pat" King's and Undo 'Jim'
Duffy's acquaintance aud I thought I would
never get away from them. The German
Villago takes tho cake, though. It is ono of
tho most interesting of all tho sights ou tho
Plalanco. It was hero I got tho 'now
process' beans. Yot whllo I am proud of my
German aucestry and of tho oxhlbit at tho
Fair I am sorry to say that all of tho offen
sive, impudent, nervy Dick Turpin ducks I
ever ran across, tho German waiters at tho
World's Fair tako tho palm. If you valuo
your life aud havo any plans for tho future,
don't tako any unnecessary chances en tho
restaurants or 'dining parlors' in tho vicinity
and outsido tho Fair grounds.
"Tiicro aro somo things that must bo said
of Chicago and the World's Fair that aro
creditable, Tho street car people, tho
elevated road guards ; the Columbian guards
and Mayor Harrison's 'finest.' I found uni
formly pollto and pilnstaking. This is
especially so with tho Columbian guard, who
has been spoken of as 'tho jay with his jaw
strapped on.' They porform their duty with
a pationco aud forbearance that aro commend
able, If not surprising. I was pleased to find
that oco of my most important wltnossos in
my contest with 'Billy' Felthoff some yoars
ago was wearing a Columbian uuiform."
"Tho World's Fair affords a great oppor
tunity for tho study of human nature," con
tinued Col. Fowler. "For instanco, ono man
from JH. Carmol who stopped at my hotel
went throe days in succession to seo Buffalo
Bill's Wild West show; another mado eight
trips on tho Ferris wheel, aud anothor spent
a whole day looking for 'tho building where
they keep tho lagoons.' But porhapa tho
most persoveranco shown by any of the Mt.
Carmol men iu forreting out a particular
object of intorost was Tom Sanger, who wont
on a hunt for a rubber cow. Ho had hoard
thero was such a thing on tho ground aud
that it givo milk. After considerable In
quiry he landed at tho dairy building, whoro
he was directed to the Midway, and thero
among other curiosities ho found a genuine
rubber bovine, with a fair-haired milk maid
drawing tho. lacteal just as natural as though
it was a real llvo bossy and likely to kick tho
rail over any moment."
Whllo In the West Col. Fowlor paid a
flying visit to Galesburg, Illinois, a town of
21,000 inhabitants having 2t saloons, each of
which pays an annual license fco of $1,000.
The money derived from this source is used
in it roe t paving aud other town Improve
ments. Tho paving is of fire brick, which is
extomively manufactured there. Paving of
this klud laid ton yoars ago is almost as good
to-day as it was when first put down. First
there isalayerof sand, theualayerof bricks,
laid fiat, tho roller is then used, and fiually
another layer of bricks, on ends, is added,
Galesburg is a beautiful town four miles
square with fine farming country all around
It. Tho place has five banks and several
educational institutions. Colouol Fowlor
fell In lovo with it and if ho were a little
younger and not so much tied up by business
iuterests in Shenandoah he would not hesi
tate to locate thero. His son-in-law, Frank
Buyer, is doing a splondtd dry goods business
iu Galesburg, employing thirteen olerks.
Livery stable keepers should always keep
Arnica & OU Liniment in the stable, nothing

Tho man who has already stood tho loss
thus far and is likely to pilo up another hill
of coitson himself is Felix Goozcy. Ho re
sides nt Boston Run. A few days ago ho
ordered a Shenandoah man to scud a keg of
beer to his housa. Goozoy's next door neigh
bor also ordered a keg of bcor on tho same
day, but gave the order to a Mahanoy City
mau. Tho Mahanoy keg arrived first and
Goozey put it in his shanty. The neighbor
claimed it aud that night took it out of
Goozey's shanty. A series of fights ensued
and tho result was that cross suits for assault
and battery wcro entered beforo Justices
Toomoy and Shoomakor of town and Goozey
was also sued for stenllng tho keg of beer.
Goozey was eventually convinced that tho
keg found iu his shanty did not belong to
him, but was tho ono his neighbor hnd
ordered from Mahanoy City, whereupon tho
parties declared all hostilities off, and Goozey
paid tho costs.
Tho other day .Goozey discovered that tho
chargo against him for stealing tho keg of
beer was still pending and he hired a lawyer
to seo what could bo douo to Justlci Toomoy,
because a receipt for costs had been given.
Goozoy's lawyer called upon tho Justice, who
explained that tho receipt was good "so far as
it goes," but It was only for tho costs in tho
assault and battery cases aud not in the
larceny suit. This convinced tho lawyer
that there was no claim against tho Justice,
but it did not convinco Goozoy, who has
engaged a second lawyer. Goozey's friends
say he i3 foolish, but he can't seo it In that
light. Moantimo tho fees aud costs crawl up.

Tho Pottsvillo Journal grew over-enthusi
astic In the report of tho game at that place
yestcrdny. After stating that tho Pottsvilles
defeated tho Eastons by a score of 15 to 9.
which is tho truth, it states that tho Eastons
"shutout" tho Shenandoah club, which is
not tho truth. Tho Eastons havo played but
two games hero. On Friday last tho Shen
andoahs defeated them by a score of 7 to 0;
and In the next game the Eastons won by a
score of 11 to 8, so the Pottsvilles have not
mado as good a showing against tho Easton
league champions as Shenandoah has. The
Journal also claims that the gimo at Potts
vi lo yesterday was tho greatest of tho season.
Let us seo : It was a nine inning game.
Pottsvillo made 17 hits and 0 errors; Easton
13 hits and 8 errors. A short timo ago
Shenandoah won a twelve Inning game from
Renovo by a score of 3 to 2. Shenandoah
had 8 hits aud 3 errors ; Renovo had 3 hits
and 5 errors. It would seem the Journal
mau is off iu his estimation of great games.

careful examination it was found that in only
ono caso was there any causo for apprehen
sion. It ia stated upon rellablo information
that tho victims reported to tho Board of
Health last wock and tho preceding weok aro
steadily improving and that thero is no cnam
for alarm by their friends. Tho dlsonso Is of
such a stubborn and insidious nature that it
progress In tho first stages makes tho re
covery appoar very slow aud for days the
patlonts may appear to bo Inadosperatostage,
while at tho time nature may bo securing tho
upper hand of tho disease. Ono of the
prominent physicians of town stated to day
that groat harm is dono patleuts by sympa
thetic visitors who always look to tho dark
sido of life and haven't enough souse to shield
their fears iu tho presenco of tho sick, which
is very aggravating to tho attending physi
cians as well as tho families. Owing to the;
character of typhoid fever tho physlclaus are
unable to stato tho nature of illness imme
