The Diamond States" Anniversary

During all the week up to Wednesday
night, Newark's colored folks cast theil
eyes skyward upon the lookout for a
''speck" denoting clear weather on
Thursday, this being the day set for the
celebration of the first anniversary of the
Diamond State Cornet Band. Disap-
pointed they retired and sadly arose on
Thursday morning with slight shower
of rain. But they hoped on and were
gratified at nine o'clock to see it clear
away and ''old Sol'' put forth his bright
est rays. The work of preparation for
the days festivities then began, and
dusky maidens, affording a strong con-
trast with their white and gauzy attire,
could be seen fitting about, with counte-
nances wreathed in smiles, each one
seemingly conscious that her appearance
would captivate the heart of some one of
the young "gemmen." Members of the
Diamond State attired in their natty uni
form were also going hither and thithcr,
but, unlike the ''fair' ones, appearing
as serious as if about TO engage in some
solemn and impressive ceremony.
The morning trains brought the Mount
Vernon Cornet Band, the Metropolitan
Pioneer Club and numbers of friends
from Wilmington, Elkton and elsewhere.
The Newark ledger. (Newark, Del.) 1877-1???, 1880-08-07

These were received at the Depot by
delegations appo.aisd for the purpose
and escorted to tie Place Of forming the
procession, on New london avenue. AZ
half-past ten the oIder was given to
march. The sire Is bsing muddy that
part of the proceasioa on foot took the
pavement with tAs diamond State as
escort to the Moim Ternon Band, fol-
lowed by the Metrlpol tan Pioneer Club
and the Garfield C,sia ign Club; the ora
tors for the day ar % tied guests going

L. p B. Henryga 81 aduate Of Liucoln
University, of OXFORD Pa; p. s. Blake,

ton with an excellent cake, which was

the Band, with apfp pirate and graceful
remarks extendisI thanks therefor.
Profs. James H.. ley and H. d. Ruff
fin, announced to aedress the company,

places.
The Oxford Cores Band, of Oxford,
Pa, arrived at stipye at eleven clock,

an orderly one, 60 hefably.

citizens were again treated to fine exhi-
bition of marching. Many of the visitors

An Exciting Trouble In KImbleyille.

The little village of Kimblevillc, in
Franklin TOWNSHIPS has been for some
time considerably agitated about the
management of q strawberry festival
which was held in the Presbyterian
church at that place some weeks ago,
Last spring an organization was formed
by the members andfriends of the church
which was called the Try Society,"" hav-
ing for its objects the holding of fairs,
festivals, ETC., to re:se funds to purchase
an organ for tho church aed for other
purposes. About two hundred dollars
was realized from the festival above men,
toned, which amount is still in the hands
of the treasurer A misunderstanding
arose during the continuance or about
the close of the festival, which resulted
in "split" in thesociety, and two scpa-
rate factions were formed, which are
styled by the opponents of either faction
as the "Rum party" and the f'Ingersoll
party"
The feeling of bitterness grows daily
more intense, while the prospects of pro-
curing a musical instrument for the
church is proportionately lessened. Re-
Gently an organ was ordered by some one
of the party, and brought TO the VILLAGE,
which was aseeSSsy ] ss;'ssa y9ss astEe sec.
ETY. held at the church. A day or two
afterward another meeting was called at
the same place, at which the opposing
faction prcdominated and tho instrument
was rejected. just who owns the pro-
ceeds of that festival, yet in the hands Of
the first elected treasurer, or when the
music of that church will be improved by
the sweet tones Of musical instrument,
is past finding out. From tho present out
look they will flight it out ON this line il
it takes all summer"
Doubtless there arc two sides to the
matter, and if the above is not absolutely
a true representation of affairs, we should
be glad to have any correction that will
set the matter square.-W. @. Local NesOs.

MUSTARD

The seeds of two species of mus
tard (slnapis) are commonly used
for culinary and medicinal pur-
poses, and are known as black mus
tard seeds. The -four Of mustard,
so extensively used as a condiment,
is prepared from a mixture of the
two kinds, usually in the proper
ton of two parts black and three
parts white. The seeds are pound
ed and the husks then removed
from the -four by sitting. ltisre-
markable that the pungent prln-
ciple for which mustard is valued
does not exist in the seeds, but it
is produced when the constituents
of the seeds are brought together
under the influence of water.
Internally, flour of mustard is
used as a stimulant, diuretic and
emetic; externally as an irritant
and rebefacient. White mustard
seeds are often taken in an entire
state as stimulants in dyspepsia.
Mustard should be mixed with Wa
ter that has been boiled.and allow
ed to cool. Hot water destroys the
essential qualities, and raw cold
water might cause it to ferment.
Put the mustard in cup with a
small pinch Of salt, and mix with
it very gradually sufficient water
to make it drop from the spoon
without becoming watery. The
Germans have a way of preparing
mustard in which much Of its pun
gency is modified by spices. The
folGowing-is an approved method
of preparing it: Take of the white
and black mustard seed, ground
fine, each one pound, and half a
pound of sugar. Pour upon this
mixture a sufficient quantity of boil
ing vinegar to make it Of the con-
slstency Of soft dough. It should
then be stirred constantly with a
paddle for about half an hour, in
which time the mustard will swell
and become much CHECKER. After
it has cooked-say about an hour
add one ounce Of powdered Gin
namon and half an ounce Of pow
dered cloves, and mix thoroughly.
It may then be set away in tightly
covered bottles and jars, and if
the vinegar is good it will keep any
length of time and improve with
age. It may be thinned with VIM
egar as it is wanted for use. Mus
tard prepared in this way is far
superior to that mixed in the
usual manner.

IRON FILINGS FOR PEAR TREES.
Mr.. G.. A., Hubbard, New Ha-
ven, Conn.,, writes the Scientific
American, that it is conjectured
that New Haven county has a larg-
er supply Of choice pear trees than
any other county IN the United
States. Some fine varieties, nota-
bly, the Flemish Beauty and White
Doyenne, are generally failures.
They set we'll with blossoms, but
the young fruit cracks, prematurely
ripens and drops of. Mr.. Hubbard
thinks the general success Of the
pear in that locality is due to the
fact that the sandy soil contains a
portion Of iron, which he has come
to believe IS q necessary element
in pear culture. He thinks the
quantity there, however, is INSULT
cient for the needs of the two va
rieties named. He bases this con-
clusion mainly on the fact that a
Flemish tree fertilized annually
from the sWeepings Of smiths
shop, in which thier is large
quantity of iron filings and bits Of
iron, gives good yield Of most
excellent fruit. He suggests to
pear growers everywhere the pro-
priety Of procuring iron filings or
drillings, and mixing with the soil
about their trees. He would mix
with wood ashes in moderate
amount.

HEADACHE. This distressing
complaint can generally be reliey-
ed by soaking the feet in very warm
water, in which spoonful OF
powdered mustard has been stirred.
Soak as long as possible, or till the
water gets cool; it draws the
blood from the head.
