The venture and manly sacrifice you have made prompts me to compliment you, notwithstanding your objections." "Miss Brimm, I presume I must submit to your decision and I sincere-ly thank you, but I always have had a dislike lor being made a conspicuous figure upon any occasion whatever." Mr. Newall and his father had ar-rived in the village very unexpectedly the previous day and on hearing at the parsonage that Mr. Pftam was at-tending the picnic, decided to give him a surprise. Everybody now spoke his praise and he was pressed to join them. He was certainly the hero ot the hour, and I assure you, he took complete advantage ot his first and grandest opportunity. Even Beckie, George and Joel were frankly expressing their admiration for him and Beckie kindly invited him to par-take of some of the luncheon. He de-clined the latter saying "he had just had dinner at the hotel before driviug to the grove," then kindly thanked her. "Truly, Miss Brimm, I must certainly feel grateful to our old friend, the pastor, for being the inno-cent cause of my presence or this most interesting occasion. Allow me to compliment you for being so fully equal to fill the role of manager in so unusual and rural a pastime. You seem thoroughly at home and to hear you suggest the many old time amuse-ments, one would almost think you had once been a rustic or perhaps a fairy of t h e woods and glens. Is that not a compliment ? " I canfiat . al6pgetter,it agree with you," answered Beckie, "for instance, Mr. Newall, would you think it at all appropriate to suggest a scene from Shakespere or attempt to interest this innocent group by reciting one of Tennyson's poems? I always suit my-self to circumstances, Mr. Newall. You know I have other auditors be-sides you and our worthy pastor, most of whom would appreciate a "Mother Goose" tale far more merrily than a poem." "Yes, yes, Miss Brimm, you are right ; you first make a study of your audience, then make a suitable selec-tion, but do you not grow weary of so monotonous a task ? " "To me, kind sir, it is always a de-light to give pleasure on any oc-casion." I see, I see, you are certainly blessed, for you always seem to live for others, a beautiful gift to possess." The picnic was truly a great success and as twilight was just approaching and the hour growing late, it was de-cided that after a merry song and a fevi' remarks from Mr. Newall, they would prepare to depart- Mr., Newall said "that his unexpected participa-tion in their innocent festivities and the heartfelt reception accorded him would ever remain a pleasant remin-iscence." Just then George, who stood short distance from the speaker, looked anything but pleased or satis-fied with Beckie's manners toward Newall, came forward rather abruptly with her favorite horse Nancy. He had held the horse until he became very impatient. Newall had already invited her to! enter his carriage, but she thanked him kindly, and with a quick bound and the assistance of George, she was seated upon the saddle, then galloped off quite a dis-tance with such grace and ease that really surprised Newall. He turned and bowed gracefully, then entered the lane leading to the tarm. Newall, notwithstanding this hurri-ed movement on the part of Beckie, was content with the success of the day. and concluded not to push his cause too rashly by asking the priv iledgeof making her a call, so ordered his coachman to take the main road back to the village. Just as he had crossed the bridge over the creek at the point where the rescue had taken place, the old man of all work who had not been seen for some time stepped but from behind a huge tree and walked toward him, but Newall just tapped his coachman on the back and off they trotted, leaving the old fellow in a rage. He cursed and grumbled saying— ' there will not be a second tragedy in this family if I can prevent it," then was soon out of sight. At the outskirts of the village he suddenly halted and was comfronted by the man who had been rescued by Newall. He had been drinking freely, so be-came yery communicative, and the old man, having taken advantage of his condition, questioned him about Newall, lauding and complimenting him for his wonderful bravery. The rescued fellow laughed loudly and said, "O, rot, i t had all been made out beforehand and that. Newall knew him to be a rascal and a criminal, having made several attempts to enter his rooms to rob him ; "he threatened, to have me arrested if" I would not do and act according to his orders, so he instructed me as to what I should do. He paid me well to do his bidding, and gave me full particular- as to how I should act. The rest you know, the rescue followed and here I am alive and kicking and he is t h e hero." The old man left hastily, as the sot was still leaning on the railing of the bridge. The old fellow was thorough-ly disgusted, and as he walked away he said to himself "that drunken beast; I must keep my eye on him and on the admirer of Miss Brimm, for I know he is a rascal and will not stop at anything to gain his influence. He has already gained favor, and I shall not leave this neighborhood,, but will keep myself in tfie back-ground." "Well, governor, how are you to-d a y ? " said John Newall, Jr., to his father; he told him all that had hap-pened and said "he lelt sure of carry-ing his point, as he had already gained the good will of the people and had been cordially received by the Brimms. Of course that ignoramus George Brimm did not seem exactly recon-ciled, but you know he is in love with his cousin and consequently jealous of me." "Ah, ha ! ah, ha! my boy, jealous is he ?" said the elder Newall, "you have nothing to fear from that quarter, for in such communities cousins never marry, so pull away but go easy. Now John, how about that widow in want, whose house was destroyed by fire.? Have they come to her relief as yet?" " I don't think they have," said young John, "but by the way I feel confident that a kind act in ' that direction, would be another step to-ward popularity and success." "You are right, young man; always right when you take my advise. Now then, my boy, pass my check book and I will fill out one in the widow's favor, but this continued drain on my finances must soon end." He then ordered tea to be served in his room as usual. In the evening John Newall, Jr., sat in his room a long time pondering over his actions of the day and finally decided to make a bold stroke in the direction ot the Brimm farm. He had not been invited to call, but concluded to first pay his respects to Ephraim and his wife before intruding himself upon their niece He did not order his coachman to take him down, as he thought it would have a better effect on the old couple if he walked from the village to the farm. Now as the Brimms were comfort-ably seated in the sitting room, the old farmer began to refer to the creek incident, then said, "few young- fellers voult a chumped in de greek ant I bet Choel voult a drowndit first before he in de vater voult go." 'Now pop," said Joel, "for vy you talk so ant before Cheorge too." ' 'You better mint your own business,' answered George, "ant Beckie vill sink more of you." "Och, my! och, my!" said aunty, "vy don't you boys de mout hold ? vy don't you shame you ? Beckie, I voult first teach dem gute manners first be-fore anysing else, so I voult." "Well, well, dear aunty, you see I have made quite a change in George, but Joel seems so backward ; he thinks of nothing but eating and drinking and if he don't try to improve I can-not force him." "All ride, Beckie, dey vill do better ven dat Mr. Newall vassent aboud, so don't mint vat I say." "Och mom," said Joel, "for vy you always bring in dat Chon Newall ? he is nossingso great." '^See here boys," said Beckie, don't you think he deserves more charity than all this, after his actions of to day ? I fear we have all misjudged him, for you know he was brought up so differently and we should try and overlook his many little faults." "I don't see, Beckie," said George, "vy ve voult excuse him any more dan anyone else dat has common sense. We don't vish any person to come ant take you from us. Now Beckie, don't please laugh at me." "See here, George ; he has not as yet carried me away, neither do I think at present of making an immediate change, so do be quiet on that subject and give the poor fellow a rest, I beg of- you all. Talk about the glorious tun we had to day and t h e good it has done us." There was quiet for a moment, when all at once Aunt Peggie became ex-cited. She exclaimed, as she ran to NO. 41 RATES OF ADVERTISING IN TBE RECORD 1 i n 2 i n S i n . c .

'Never mind, dear aunty," said Beckie, "in the future I will see that Wasser does not trample upon your lovely geraniums. I think it was al-together my fault ; I forgot to close the gate after gathering flowers for the bouquet." "Och, Beckie, oxcuse me, I ditent know it vas you." Hello ! hello !" yelled Joel, very much excited as he gazed out into the yard, "by gosh, mom, dare comes Newall ant he iss a-valking, not rid-ing. Ha ha ha, Beckie, dat means sotnesing. I vonter if his horse iss by de black-Schmit or vedder he has de blint schtaggers, don't you know ? " Presently a slight knock upon the door was heard and Uncle Ephraim hurried to welcome him. "Valk in, valk in, Mr. Newall; ve vas all in de s i t t i ng room and Beckie iss too." He particularly inquired after Mrs. Brimm's health and then turned very patronizingly to Ephraim. He begged to be excused for having called with-out a special invitation. As he enter-ed the room he passed at once to greet Aunt Peggie first, then extended his hand to Miss Beckie, which she ac cepted politely, bidding him a cordial welcome. He noticed at once that she received him with more enthus-ism than on former occasions and he now felt as if he were no longer an intruder. The evening passed very pleasantly, for they were all very courteous. During the conversation he referred to the poor widow's condition and whether anything had been done tor her comfort. Beckie then became interested in the conversation and said "she had not heard of anything having been done," then modestly stated ' 'that she had given her a small amount, and that her Uncle Ephraim had sent the boys up with flour and vegetables." "Yes, yes, Miss Brimm, one might know your good, kind uncle would be one of the first to open his heart. By the way in what part of the village does she reside? I might persuade father to interest himself and more than likely he will; giving relief to the deserving is a sort of a hobby ot his and I am glad to say it is a good one.", ©,- how confident John Newall was of success, and after spending a most enjoyable evening gave them all a cordial good evening. He took Miss Brimm's extended hand, pressed it slightly, then looked up into her eyes. She did not turn away but returned his glance, then kindly invited him to call again, as she was so anxious to learn more about his father's many charitable acts. Newall stepped out of the house with a light heart and felt it a great relief to be in tlie open air. As he passed out through the gate he noticed the figure of a man who was evidently waiting for someone. As he approach-ed him he said, "what is your business in this place ?'' His answer was, "you will learn later; it is not my inten-tion to interfere with you at the pres-ent time." "Begone, you vagrant," said New-all, "or I will make it very unpleas-ant for you." Young man, listen; you will hear from me in the near future, so beware! beware !" Newall went to his hotel, but found that his father had already retired, so he decided not to disturb him, He entered his room and tried hard to calm himself. He could not rest peacefully, for the words 'beware ! be-ware' ! were on his mind constantly. For fully two hours be had tried to sleep ; every now and then he would J>e startled by harsh voices and imag-inary pictures in the darkness, of sus-picious looking men who were con-tinually in his pathway, interefering with his progress or commanding him to have a care ; they also would refer to events of the past pertaining to a tragedy. He quietly stepped out of bed, seat-ed himself at the window, when to his surprise and horror he saw figures standing below pointing and gazing at him, hissing out the words, 'tragedy, i eware' ! He drew down the blinds instantly and again decided to t ry his bed, but long were the hours and many the hisses he heard. The cold perspiration stood upon his brow-he waited for t h e dawn that threatened never to come. He finally arose and hurried to arrange his toilet and made every effort to remove all traces of his wierd experiences of the night. After thoroughly refreshing himself and completing his toilet he went to give his father his morning's greeting. "Well, father, glad to see you looking so well; I looked in last night before retiring and as you were sound asleep left you in peace. I must say I did not rest well, notwithstanding my very pleasant call, and the great change that has come over our little heroine. She cordially invited me to call again, and she is very much inter-ested in your many charities." "Now, see here John; I don't wish to be at all conspicuous," said Newall, Sr., " i t is all right for you, but keep me in the background, as I fear there might be some old fellows scattered about here who have good eyes and clear memories."

Victim was a Pennsylvania Business College Student—He had an Attack of Heart Trouble. Bruce H. Thompson, twenty years of age and a student at Pennsylvania Busi-ness College, was drowned Saturday afternoon while bathing at Rocky Springs. He was seized with an attack at the heart. Thompson and Joseph F. Noonan went to Rocky Springs early on Satur-day afternoon and were boating for a short time. Then they decided to go bathing and secured suits at the Rocky Springs bathhouses. The two young men went to a point about midway be-tween Rocky Springs and Peoples bridge, where there is a float. Noonan swam across the creek to Peoples Re-sort and he was under the impression that Thompson was following him. When Noonan looked around he saw Thompson apparently diving in the water. He did not realize that he was in danger until he heard Thompson say something. Not understanding what Thompson had said Noonan wait-ed for him to arise and then under-stood that he was calling for help. Noonan started to go to his compan-ion's aid, but he sank and never arose again. The work of recovering the body was commeuced at once and about an hour after the drowning, which occurred at 4.30 o'clock, the body was brought to the surface by Prof. McLaughlin. It was found close to the place where Thompson had gone down. The victim of the drowning was a son of John A. Thompson, of Hunt-ingdon county. The young man came to Lancaster two months ago to attend the business college and was excep-tionally bright. The body was sent to the home of his parents early Mon-day morning. County Historical Society Met Here. The Lancaster County Historical Society met Thursday afternoon, June 17, at this place. Visitors were present from Ephrata and Carlisle.

Beck read a copy of the letter sent by George Wash ington to the Moravian authorities rel-ative to the establishment of an' hos-pital at Lititz for Continental soldiers during the Revolutionary War. An original poem descriptive of the outing was read by Mrs. M. N. Robinson. The cemetery in the rear of the church was also visited. Din per was afterward taken at the Springs Hotel. OVER THE STATE. Columbia county reports thè best wild berry crop of many years. One of the most striking facts con-nected with the Charter Bureau of the State Department at Harrisburg has been the numher of letters patent issued for electric companies. Over a dozen have been chartered so far this month, including four for Schuylkill county. Electric and telephone companies form important items of business enterprise these days. Robert Scheetz, of Perkasie, snaps his fingers to derision at railroads, trolley ears and automobiles. He is a member of Perkasie Fire Company, No. 1. Last week he walked from Perkasie to Dan= ville, Montour county, a distance of more than 100 miles, to attend the Six- County Firemen's Convention. When the convention adjourned he footed it home making the round trip of more than 200 miles entirely on foot.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, \ WASHINGTON, M r . 21,1864. J To Mrs. Bixby, Boston, Mass. Dear Madam :—I. have been shown in the files of the War Department a state-ment of the Adjutant General of Mass-achusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be a n y word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelm-ing. But I cannot refrain from tender-ing you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the an-guish of your bereavement and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Yours very sincerely and respectfully A . LINCOLN. A Woman's. Back Has many aches and pains caused b$ weaknesses and falling, or other displace-ment, of the pelvic organs.

The venture and manly sacrifice you have made prompts me to compliment you, notwithstanding your objections." "Miss Brimm, I presume I must submit to your decision and I sincere-ly thank you, but I always have had a dislike lor being made a conspicuous figure upon any occasion whatever." Mr. Newall and his father had ar-rived in the village very unexpectedly the previous day and on hearing at the parsonage that Mr. Pftam was at-tending the picnic, decided to give him a surprise. Everybody now spoke his praise and he was pressed to join them. He was certainly the hero ot the hour, and I assure you, he took complete advantage ot his first and grandest opportunity. Even Beckie, George and Joel were frankly expressing their admiration for him and Beckie kindly invited him to par-take of some of the luncheon. He de-clined the latter saying "he had just had dinner at the hotel before driviug to the grove," then kindly thanked her. "Truly, Miss Brimm, I must certainly feel grateful to our old friend, the pastor, for being the inno-cent cause of my presence or this most interesting occasion. Allow me to compliment you for being so fully equal to fill the role of manager in so unusual and rural a pastime. You seem thoroughly at home and to hear you suggest the many old time amuse-ments, one would almost think you had once been a rustic or perhaps a fairy of t h e woods and glens. Is that not a compliment ? " I canfiat . al6pgetter,it agree with you," answered Beckie, "for instance, Mr. Newall, would you think it at all appropriate to suggest a scene from Shakespere or attempt to interest this innocent group by reciting one of Tennyson's poems? I always suit my-self to circumstances, Mr. Newall. You know I have other auditors be-sides you and our worthy pastor, most of whom would appreciate a "Mother Goose" tale far more merrily than a poem." "Yes, yes, Miss Brimm, you are right ; you first make a study of your audience, then make a suitable selec-tion, but do you not grow weary of so monotonous a task ? " "To me, kind sir, it is always a de-light to give pleasure on any oc-casion." I see, I see, you are certainly blessed, for you always seem to live for others, a beautiful gift to possess." The picnic was truly a great success and as twilight was just approaching and the hour growing late, it was de-cided that after a merry song and a fevi' remarks from Mr. Newall, they would prepare to depart- Mr., Newall said "that his unexpected participa-tion in their innocent festivities and the heartfelt reception accorded him would ever remain a pleasant remin-iscence." Just then George, who stood short distance from the speaker, looked anything but pleased or satis-fied with Beckie's manners toward Newall, came forward rather abruptly with her favorite horse Nancy. He had held the horse until he became very impatient. Newall had already invited her to! enter his carriage, but she thanked him kindly, and with a quick bound and the assistance of George, she was seated upon the saddle, then galloped off quite a dis-tance with such grace and ease that really surprised Newall. He turned and bowed gracefully, then entered the lane leading to the tarm. Newall, notwithstanding this hurri-ed movement on the part of Beckie, was content with the success of the day. and concluded not to push his cause too rashly by asking the priv iledgeof making her a call, so ordered his coachman to take the main road back to the village. Just as he had crossed the bridge over the creek at the point where the rescue had taken place, the old man of all work who had not been seen for some time stepped but from behind a huge tree and walked toward him, but Newall just tapped his coachman on the back and off they trotted, leaving the old fellow in a rage. He cursed and grumbled saying— ' there will not be a second tragedy in this family if I can prevent it," then was soon out of sight. At the outskirts of the village he suddenly halted and was comfronted by the man who had been rescued by Newall. He had been drinking freely, so be-came yery communicative, and the old man, having taken advantage of his condition, questioned him about Newall, lauding and complimenting him for his wonderful bravery. The rescued fellow laughed loudly and said, "O, rot, i t had all been made out beforehand and that. Newall knew him to be a rascal and a criminal, having made several attempts to enter his rooms to rob him ; "he threatened, to have me arrested if" I would not do and act according to his orders, so he instructed me as to what I should do. He paid me well to do his bidding, and gave me full particular- as to how I should act. The rest you know, the rescue followed and here I am alive and kicking and he is t h e hero." The old man left hastily, as the sot was still leaning on the railing of the bridge. The old fellow was thorough-ly disgusted, and as he walked away he said to himself "that drunken beast; I must keep my eye on him and on the admirer of Miss Brimm, for I know he is a rascal and will not stop at anything to gain his influence. He has already gained favor, and I shall not leave this neighborhood,, but will keep myself in tfie back-ground." "Well, governor, how are you to-d a y ? " said John Newall, Jr., to his father; he told him all that had hap-pened and said "he lelt sure of carry-ing his point, as he had already gained the good will of the people and had been cordially received by the Brimms. Of course that ignoramus George Brimm did not seem exactly recon-ciled, but you know he is in love with his cousin and consequently jealous of me." "Ah, ha ! ah, ha! my boy, jealous is he ?" said the elder Newall, "you have nothing to fear from that quarter, for in such communities cousins never marry, so pull away but go easy. Now John, how about that widow in want, whose house was destroyed by fire.? Have they come to her relief as yet?" " I don't think they have," said young John, "but by the way I feel confident that a kind act in ' that direction, would be another step to-ward popularity and success." "You are right, young man; always right when you take my advise. Now then, my boy, pass my check book and I will fill out one in the widow's favor, but this continued drain on my finances must soon end." He then ordered tea to be served in his room as usual. In the evening John Newall, Jr., sat in his room a long time pondering over his actions of the day and finally decided to make a bold stroke in the direction ot the Brimm farm. He had not been invited to call, but concluded to first pay his respects to Ephraim and his wife before intruding himself upon their niece He did not order his coachman to take him down, as he thought it would have a better effect on the old couple if he walked from the village to the farm. Now as the Brimms were comfort-ably seated in the sitting room, the old farmer began to refer to the creek incident, then said, "few young- fellers voult a chumped in de greek ant I bet Choel voult a drowndit first before he in de vater voult go." 'Now pop," said Joel, "for vy you talk so ant before Cheorge too." ' 'You better mint your own business,' answered George, "ant Beckie vill sink more of you." "Och, my! och, my!" said aunty, "vy don't you boys de mout hold ? vy don't you shame you ? Beckie, I voult first teach dem gute manners first be-fore anysing else, so I voult." "Well, well, dear aunty, you see I have made quite a change in George, but Joel seems so backward ; he thinks of nothing but eating and drinking and if he don't try to improve I can-not force him." "All ride, Beckie, dey vill do better ven dat Mr. Newall vassent aboud, so don't mint vat I say." "Och mom," said Joel, "for vy you always bring in dat Chon Newall ? he is nossingso great." '^See here boys," said Beckie, don't you think he deserves more charity than all this, after his actions of to day ? I fear we have all misjudged him, for you know he was brought up so differently and we should try and overlook his many little faults." "I don't see, Beckie," said George, "vy ve voult excuse him any more dan anyone else dat has common sense. We don't vish any person to come ant take you from us. Now Beckie, don't please laugh at me." "See here, George ; he has not as yet carried me away, neither do I think at present of making an immediate change, so do be quiet on that subject and give the poor fellow a rest, I beg of- you all. Talk about the glorious tun we had to day and t h e good it has done us." There was quiet for a moment, when all at once Aunt Peggie became ex-cited. She exclaimed, as she ran to NO. 41 RATES OF ADVERTISING IN TBE RECORD 1 i n 2 i n S i n . c .

'Never mind, dear aunty," said Beckie, "in the future I will see that Wasser does not trample upon your lovely geraniums. I think it was al-together my fault ; I forgot to close the gate after gathering flowers for the bouquet." "Och, Beckie, oxcuse me, I ditent know it vas you." Hello ! hello !" yelled Joel, very much excited as he gazed out into the yard, "by gosh, mom, dare comes Newall ant he iss a-valking, not rid-ing. Ha ha ha, Beckie, dat means sotnesing. I vonter if his horse iss by de black-Schmit or vedder he has de blint schtaggers, don't you know ? " Presently a slight knock upon the door was heard and Uncle Ephraim hurried to welcome him. "Valk in, valk in, Mr. Newall; ve vas all in de s i t t i ng room and Beckie iss too." He particularly inquired after Mrs. Brimm's health and then turned very patronizingly to Ephraim. He begged to be excused for having called with-out a special invitation. As he enter-ed the room he passed at once to greet Aunt Peggie first, then extended his hand to Miss Beckie, which she ac cepted politely, bidding him a cordial welcome. He noticed at once that she received him with more enthus-ism than on former occasions and he now felt as if he were no longer an intruder. The evening passed very pleasantly, for they were all very courteous. During the conversation he referred to the poor widow's condition and whether anything had been done tor her comfort. Beckie then became interested in the conversation and said "she had not heard of anything having been done," then modestly stated ' 'that she had given her a small amount, and that her Uncle Ephraim had sent the boys up with flour and vegetables." "Yes, yes, Miss Brimm, one might know your good, kind uncle would be one of the first to open his heart. By the way in what part of the village does she reside? I might persuade father to interest himself and more than likely he will; giving relief to the deserving is a sort of a hobby ot his and I am glad to say it is a good one.", ©,- how confident John Newall was of success, and after spending a most enjoyable evening gave them all a cordial good evening. He took Miss Brimm's extended hand, pressed it slightly, then looked up into her eyes. She did not turn away but returned his glance, then kindly invited him to call again, as she was so anxious to learn more about his father's many charitable acts. Newall stepped out of the house with a light heart and felt it a great relief to be in tlie open air. As he passed out through the gate he noticed the figure of a man who was evidently waiting for someone. As he approach-ed him he said, "what is your business in this place ?'' His answer was, "you will learn later; it is not my inten-tion to interfere with you at the pres-ent time." "Begone, you vagrant," said New-all, "or I will make it very unpleas-ant for you." Young man, listen; you will hear from me in the near future, so beware! beware !" Newall went to his hotel, but found that his father had already retired, so he decided not to disturb him, He entered his room and tried hard to calm himself. He could not rest peacefully, for the words 'beware ! be-ware' ! were on his mind constantly. For fully two hours be had tried to sleep ; every now and then he would J>e startled by harsh voices and imag-inary pictures in the darkness, of sus-picious looking men who were con-tinually in his pathway, interefering with his progress or commanding him to have a care ; they also would refer to events of the past pertaining to a tragedy. He quietly stepped out of bed, seat-ed himself at the window, when to his surprise and horror he saw figures standing below pointing and gazing at him, hissing out the words, 'tragedy, i eware' ! He drew down the blinds instantly and again decided to t ry his bed, but long were the hours and many the hisses he heard. The cold perspiration stood upon his brow-he waited for t h e dawn that threatened never to come. He finally arose and hurried to arrange his toilet and made every effort to remove all traces of his wierd experiences of the night. After thoroughly refreshing himself and completing his toilet he went to give his father his morning's greeting. "Well, father, glad to see you looking so well; I looked in last night before retiring and as you were sound asleep left you in peace. I must say I did not rest well, notwithstanding my very pleasant call, and the great change that has come over our little heroine. She cordially invited me to call again, and she is very much inter-ested in your many charities." "Now, see here John; I don't wish to be at all conspicuous," said Newall, Sr., " i t is all right for you, but keep me in the background, as I fear there might be some old fellows scattered about here who have good eyes and clear memories."

Victim was a Pennsylvania Business College Student—He had an Attack of Heart Trouble. Bruce H. Thompson, twenty years of age and a student at Pennsylvania Busi-ness College, was drowned Saturday afternoon while bathing at Rocky Springs. He was seized with an attack at the heart. Thompson and Joseph F. Noonan went to Rocky Springs early on Satur-day afternoon and were boating for a short time. Then they decided to go bathing and secured suits at the Rocky Springs bathhouses. The two young men went to a point about midway be-tween Rocky Springs and Peoples bridge, where there is a float. Noonan swam across the creek to Peoples Re-sort and he was under the impression that Thompson was following him. When Noonan looked around he saw Thompson apparently diving in the water. He did not realize that he was in danger until he heard Thompson say something. Not understanding what Thompson had said Noonan wait-ed for him to arise and then under-stood that he was calling for help. Noonan started to go to his compan-ion's aid, but he sank and never arose again. The work of recovering the body was commeuced at once and about an hour after the drowning, which occurred at 4.30 o'clock, the body was brought to the surface by Prof. McLaughlin. It was found close to the place where Thompson had gone down. The victim of the drowning was a son of John A. Thompson, of Hunt-ingdon county. The young man came to Lancaster two months ago to attend the business college and was excep-tionally bright. The body was sent to the home of his parents early Mon-day morning. County Historical Society Met Here. The Lancaster County Historical Society met Thursday afternoon, June 17, at this place. Visitors were present from Ephrata and Carlisle.

An original poem descriptive of the outing was read by Mrs. M. N. Robinson. The cemetery in the rear of the church was also visited. Din per was afterward taken at the Springs Hotel. OVER THE STATE. Columbia county reports thè best wild berry crop of many years. One of the most striking facts con-nected with the Charter Bureau of the State Department at Harrisburg has been the numher of letters patent issued for electric companies.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, \ WASHINGTON, M r . 21,1864. J To Mrs. Bixby, Boston, Mass. Dear Madam :—I. have been shown in the files of the War Department a state-ment of the Adjutant General of Mass-achusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be a n y word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelm-ing. But I cannot refrain from tender-ing you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the an-guish of your bereavement and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Yours very sincerely and respectfully A . LINCOLN. A Woman's. Back Has many aches and pains caused b$ weaknesses and falling, or other displace-ment, of the pelvic organs.
