THE S. OF V. AND LADIES' AID
A Joint Colpbrntlou Held by tlio
Organization With tlio G. A. It.
nnd Families ns Ouests Pocn
lioutns Anniversary.
A Joint anniversary celebration was bold
in Deddall's hall last night by Henry
Hornoastlo Cntn) No. 40, Bona of Veterans,
jliid the Ladles' Aid Society, which Is nn
auxiliary organization to tlio former. The
members of Watkln Waters l'ost No. lit),
G. A. It., anil the Women's Relief Corps
were honored guests and were afforded a
very pleasant evening. Tho Camp was
thirteen years old on tho 2nd inst. nnd tho
Ladles' Aid Society will bo nine years' old
on the 23rd Inst. The two organizations
got together nnd decided to make one event
of the two anniversaries and haven reunion
of the local surviving war veterans and
their families, and It wasa. very gratifying
success.
A very interesting and pleasing program
was arranged for tho occasion. William
Wlllman, a member of the Camp, offi
ciated as master of .oeremouies and ac
quitted himself of the duties" lfia
creditable manner. His opening address
was followed by singing by tho audieiico
and a prayer by Rev. John Bath, after
which there was a very pleasing duett by
Misses Bella Brown and Edith Morgan.
Miss Lottlo Bowman gave an interesting
recitation and Misses Martha Iiichards and
Edith Morgan sang a duett, which
followed by an exercise entitled ".Planting
the Tree of Liberty," in which
nine children participated. This was
followed, by remarks from Rev.
J. W. Meredith, pastor of the Methodist
Episcopal church, and who is a veteran of
tho war. An intermission was then taken
and refreshments served. They were well
selected and abundant. The second part
of the program was opened with a trio by
Misses Richards and Morgan and John
Price, Jr., after which the chairman issued
a general invitation for remarks and a
number of responses wore made by the
honored guests and members of the Camp
and Ladles' Aid. The addresses were
followed by a trio by Misses Martha
Richards, Edith Morgau and Bella Brown.
Miss Maggie Daddow gave a recita
tion and upon Its conclusion Itev.
Meredith offered prayer. The program was
then closed with the singing of an old odo
by the audience. The event was so suc
cessful it is probable that the Sons of Vet
erans and Ladies' Aid will celebrate their
anniversary jolutly In tho future. Both
organizations are in a prosperous condi
tion. Chief of I'ollce Tosh was the first
captain of the Camp and Mrs! John Dad
dow the first president of the Ladles' Aid
Society.

Postponement Criticised.
The postponement of action on the public
water works by tho- Borough Council has
caused considerable criticism by citizens.
Last night several were heard to remark it
seemed strange that at the present critical
stage of the project It is Impossible to get
more than a bare quorum of Couucilmen
to attend the meeting. Another meeting
of Council to either accept or reject tho
plant has been called for this evening,
The members should attend this meeting,
even if compelled to make a personal
sacrifice, and thus allay the fears which
some citizens seem to harbor by reason of
the postponements.

Tho Columbia H. & S. F. B. Co. colo-

by having an outing at Lakeside. It was
a big event and one of the most successful
of the kind in the company's history. The
trip to Lakeside was made this morning on
a P. & R. trniu and the firemen, their
families and friends packed the eight oars
to the platforms. About eight hundred
people were on the train. The Grant Baud
was in the crowd. A number of people
missoil the train, but caught it at Mahanoy

road.

multiplied to such an exteut that Justice
Green, who has charge of tho Wm. Penn
end of tho feud, aud Justlco Shoemaker,
who has been Issuing warrants to the par
ticipants who would not placo their cases
before tho former justice, have been un
able to keep track of them. Justlco
Green's docket shows nearly twenty cases
and Justice Shoemaker's about ten more.
The charges nre of various degrees, rang
ing from simple assault to aggravated as
sault and battery and Inciting to riot. The
Justices nnd Constables will reap n harvost
from the affair and the people who may bo
obliged to draw heavily upon their bank
jpppunts. It is estimated that even nt
this carlysrSEeTiiaases are so numerous,
It would require about" 'Mk to pay the
costs. Tho litigations started onTNrrgutrf -
number. Everybody sued turned around
aud entered countersults and sworo out nn
extra warrant for good measure. Had half
a dozen people been killed In tho riot the
excitement that prevails over the
affair at Wm. Penn could hardly havebeeu
greater. Should the cases go to trial tho
witnesses will form an army aud operations
at the Win. Penn colliery may be thrown
idle for want of hands. Ouo officer who
has been giving attention to the affair says
that the witnesses to bo subpoenaed will
number close to seventy-live. Aud tho
litigations aro still accumulating. Last
night Louis Bender, the hotelkeeper, was
again beforo Justice Shoemakor to answer
a series of charges. Ho furnished 5300
bail for his appearance at court.
Mr. Bender visited tho Hehald office
yesterday and stated that no shots wore
fired by him, or anyone olso during the
riot. He claims that William Taggert nnd
others threw stones and ho chased them
away from his place. Ho also says that
two pistol shots were fired from the Tag
gert house about two hours after the riot
and that no shots were fired at Justice
Green's ofiico. Mr. Bender's version, of
course, does not conform with that gleaned
from other sources, aud it will be protty
hard to tell which is tho correct version
until all parties have their say under oath
before a jury. There are enough versions
to fill a book and the affair will go down
in the history of Wm. Penn as one of the
most exciting events that havo occurred In
the place. It promises to establish a feud
that will be heard from in tho Justices
offices aud courts In one shapo or another
for years to come.
