Camp 112, Patriotic Onler Son. of America,
till Active and Progressive, Preparing to
Celebrate Its Tweuty-flfth Anniversary.
Other Hattrrs of Interest,
There is considerable activity among
tho members of Washington Camp, No.
112, P. O. S. ot A., owing to tho approach
ing celobratlou ot tho twenty-fifth anni
versary of the organization. This, cele
bration will bu the red letter occasion of
the camp's history and will no doubt
bring into re-unlon many people who aro
now prominent in town and cities in other
parts of the country and who at one time
were well-known and prominent residents
of this place. During its existence of a
quarter of a century the old camp has
been the scene of many pleasant associa
tions andsomoof the namesupou its books
are frequently seen recorded in connec
tion with notable political and commer
cial evonts in all parts ot the United
States. Among Its members and ex
members are men who have taken the
lessons taught in the camp room
as one of their guides in life and have
Btendily climbed the ladder of fame and
fortuno, until to-day they shine as lights
among their fellow men. Butin nil their
prosperity and prominence they never fail
to remember the scenes of their early
happiness and whenever the Old damp has
an anniversary tho malls always' bring In
scores of letters from her graduates in all
parts of the country. Though very old,
and havlnir had manv uns and downs In
her life, the camp is still as vigorous as
ever. She has a healthy treasury, a large
ami ncuve lnemoersmp, auu taKes in new
members ot almost every meeting. (The
comtaittee which has charge of ,the
itrrtiMguLuuuia lur luu approacuiug cele
bration1, is composed of .Messrs: " S. L.
Brown, James 11. Lewis, P. II. Gable,

An. old lady who visited the museum
the other evening was astounded by the
attenuated limbs of J. W. Coffey, who is
billed ns the skeleton dude. She gazed at
him intently for several minutes, her
eyes sweeping from bend to feet and feet
to .bend, her astonishment, annnreutlv in
creasing as her gaze was prolonged. Fl-
nauy-piie turned to a man wno stood be
side her arid said, "I wonder was he made
that way, or does he make himself that
way?" The man answered frnnklv. "I
don't know, mum, how he wuz made, or
wno maue -im; nut i Know tnire would be
no business at the Atlantic City bathing
houses it he all stood on pins like 'em,

The blizzard made trying work for tho
railroaders. The men engaged on freight
trains were obliged to stand knee-deep in
the snow and shoveling 'hard to clear the
switches and tracks. At some places the
snow had drifted to such a depth that
even tho snow plows on the locomotives
were ot little value and cars were side
tracked only after great difficulty. The
Bnow would pilo up on the plows and
nilots and after nnshlnir a few Tunis the
engines would look ns if they had been
unven into a snow Dane.
A townsman seated in Ferguson's hotel
last night said he would like to see Gov
ernor Tillman, of South Carolina, "just
to seo what kind of a looking chap he is.''
The man who expressed this desire and
many others of town have seen him, but
tbev foriret the Congressional committee
which visited Shenandoah to make au in
vestigation of the last big strike. At
that time he was comparatively unknown
and but little importance was attached
to a view of him, but his recent attitude
in connection with the dispensary troubles
in the-state of which he is Governor and
his subsequent declarations on Demo
cracy uns mntio mm more attractive than
a circus.
It is said that at its meetlnir to-morrow
night the Board of Health will give' con
siderable attention to the consideration
of the ordinance relating to the vaccina
tion of children who wish to attend the
public schools. It Is believed by some
that the School Board has been a little
too liberal in the construction of the or
dinance, and has opened a loop-hole by
which too many nmy evade the intention
of the law. The ordinance provides that
a certificate of vaccination within seven
years shall bo renuired. but the stiDerin-
tendent of the schools has Instructed the
teachers that a vaccination mark, irre
snective of its ace. shall be deemed a
sufficient certificate. Some of the mem
bers of the Board ot Health do not concur
in this opinion and it is said that this is
one of the points upon which one of tho
discussions will hinge. It Is claimed that
if there is any virtue in vaccination it
should be performed at least every seven
years.

Ugly Rumors Concerning' Cer
tain Town Organizations.
WILL BE INVESTIGATED I
Tlin Mntter Is Now Doing Folltineit Up nml
If the Itrports Have Any ECensouahlo
Foundation the "Herald" Headers Will
le Fully Informed.
If information which has reached us
from a rellablo source shall be confirmed
on further investigation wo expect to lay
before our renders in a very few dnys a
story, which mny not startle this entire
community, (because many thero nre who
ore acquoiuted with the statement of fncts
wo give to-day,) but It will bo sufficient to
aroso all order-loving citizens and the
community In general to a realization of
the great danger with which they are
threatened.
Recent events growing out of the very
dlsgrnceful acts of a portion of our for
eign population, who bo far disregarded
the laws nnd so umuludiul of tho rights
of others as to hoot at and Interfere with
the funeral of M. J. Andrukaltus on the
!J0th ult., havo brought to light tho exist
ence of certain societies who, in their
manifesto to Council at its last session',
mado threats which may sooner or later
precipitate one of the bloodiest of bloody
riots in our midst. Wo refer to the paper
presented to Council on the night of the
5th of April, In which occur the threaten
ing sentences and which paper, in tho
estimation of many sensible citizens,
should not have been received by Council
In the form it was made, but should have
been couched In temperate terms based on
an unbiased recital of just what occured
and ended in an appeal to Council to In
vestigate the charges made against
borough officials, omitting all charges
against privnte citizens nnd residents
whose conduct would more prop
erly bo tho subject of a trial in court
after proper information laid before a
committing magistrate. Iu this manifesto
occur sentences which should have been
eliminated before its presentation and
which would have lost nono of its force
thereby.
Tho IlEliALD, in the spirit of fairness it
always pursues, and with n purpose to do
justice to all, will not hastily form or ex
press nn opinion on this, or any other
subject in which citizens and residents
may be at war. This newspaper Is con
tent to record and publish tho news of
events as they occur and those who aro
found, after just nnd impartial trial or
investigation, to bo at fault, will receive
deserved censuro In our columns.
To that end nnd, In order that the
blame may rest where it justly belongs,
the IlEliALD propoies to follow up the
clue given it to further inform itself nnd
its leaders wherein consists the threatened
danger of bloodshed In this community.
Wo are not alarmists, but on the con
trary the foes of those who are, but wo
believe it is a newspaper's duty nnd privi
lego to probo nil threaten' i troubles to
the core and give its timely aid to nip in
the bud any attempt at riot and blood
shed. It always happens on an occasion of a
collision between factional nnd riotous
assemblies that the most nconlo sluin and
inspired aro tho uon-contendiug, Innocent
looiccrs-on, wno, ur.iwn to tuo scene ot tho
occurrence by morbid curiosity, become
Victims to tho desperate encounter of the
lawless bands encaged In the strucirle.
II tne iimiALD succeeds in getting to
the bed-rock facts of this case .It will
promptly dish it up for the delectation of
Its readers, as well as for tho security to
life and limb and the preservation of
public and privnte property.
