The Association met on Saturday, 14th

was called To order ut II O'Clock by President
f. c. Miller. Opened with singing. The

John johnson, of Pilot Knob, is colored
gay Lothario, and his success with the tair
sex works envy and hatred and malice in the
hearts Of his less successful dark skinned
competitors; Their chickering's eliminated
last Thursday night, when Allison Casey,
Howe Luder, viii Brickey and JEFF. Bird
hied themselves toJohnson's castle, where he
was basking in the smiles of an ebony houri.
They went as Il storning party, determined
to capture the fort or die in the attempt, but
that determination was directly modified by
the appearance of Johnson, behind big re-
volver. The muzZle OF the "gun'' was too
big for the stomachs OF the assailants, and
they departed, nor stood upon the order of
their going, but went quickly. Johns on ran
Will Brickey home, and then followed Casey
to Ed. Aubuchon's dOmcle whittier he had
fled for safety. But the women folk barred
Johnson's entrance, and he then went to his
castle and repOse. The next act in the dr;r-
ma was played before Judge Dinger, and all
the parties participant duly fined, and sent
into the cooler because of inability to ''pony
up" Some of them have since paid out, but

VIII do.--
There appears to bs almost no end to thu
novelties being perfected for the oriolt
festivities in Baltimore in September. Il
will truly be as termed, Summer Night''
Carnival, and certainly nothing like it wa
ever before attempted in any city OF tht
continent. There will be electricity In al
its forms, arelights and incaudescent lights
focus lights and flambeaux, torches in var
| ious collars, Greek fire, calcium and gas
until night will be turned into day. The
pyrotec6nic features will be on scale o.
great extent and variety, some OF the sci
pieces promising TO be marvellous in effect
| The whole city will be lighted as never
before. The different monuments
with which the metropolis abounds
will be girdled by electrical bands, while
the lofty and majestic dome Of the City
Hall will be fairly ablaze. Every avenue
leading to novelty in illumination is eager
ly souSht after, and old Baltimore will in.
deed show herself this year. The night
display in the harbor will be gorgeous
sight; and the arrival Of Lord Baltimore
something to remember for years. The
Mystic Pageant on the third night will be.
yond all comparison excel anything OF the
description ever attempted not alone in
this country but in any country. Other
cities are content with from eighteen to
twenty-five floats, the latter number
being the greatest ever embraced
within one pageant in any. city.
Baltimore almost doubles this, as
her pageant on the night OF the 18th
OF September will include nolsss than forty
floats or tableaux cars, larger, more impos-
ing and granier in every way, than ever
before shown. Ordinarily the number OF
characters introduced in pageant is less
than one hundred. In the Baltimore
pageant there will be two hundred and
thirty characters upon the float, every cos.
tune entirely new and imported from
Paris direct. 1t will require thirteen hun
dred men, two hundred and forty horses,
over fifteen thousand gas jets, eight bands
OF music, and other accessories in like mag.
nificent proportion. Theactual cash outlay
necessary to place the pageant
upon the streets Of Baltimore will
exceed thirty-five thousand dol
lars. The characters are assumed
exclusively by members Iof the Order Of
the 0riole, merchants and business men Of
the highest standing. The special series Of
excursions arranged by the Baltimore &
Ohio are meeting with undisguised favor,
as they admit OF visiting 50 many places OF
great interest in addition to the 0riole at
Baltimore. AS all the festivities in the
Monumental City are at night, the day can
be put in visiting Washington, Old Point
Comfort, Fortress Monroe, Luray Caves,
Harper's Ferry, and very many other
points. The rate is down to the very low
est notch, half.iars from all stations on the
enormous system embraced within the B.
& o. management.

large number OF subscribers here and is
considered, not only for general news, but
for fair dealing, the best paper that comes
to our town by even great many who
differ with it politically.
The wheat crop has been quite a success,
and great many OF our farmers who have
sold are delighted with the result OF their
laoors.

Although It will be some time before the
next election our people have already
begun TO discuss politics pretty freely, and
also the merits OF the different prospective
candidates Of both the Democratic and
Republican parties. OF course We are
particularly interested in the affairs OF our
State, and wonder who will be our next
Governor, especially when we hear two Of
our townsmen spoken Of for that high Office,
one as the Republican and the other as the
Democratic candidate.
Mr. Haldeman, the Republican candidate,
is very able lawyer and a polished gem
tleman, and Is very popular, not only with
those OF his own political faith but with
large majority OF the Democrats.
l was walking down street the other day
when observed quite large and excited
crowd OF men and boys collected on the
sidewalk some distance in front Of me. My
first thought was, that there was an insur-
rection OF some kind, and that the Mar.
tinsburg Light Artillery would be ordered
out to quell 1t, hence, you can imagine my
great surprise when found that PC. Hun.
ter was photographing the pony OF the fu.
ture (?) Governor OF West Virginia (Hon.
E. B. Faulkner) The pony is a great ia.
vorite, especially with those who are ADM.
rers OF the beautiful, and also admirers Of
Hon. E. B. Faulkner. Some evil rainded
people say this is another move on the pc.
litical chess board. 1fso, does Boyd IN,
tend to put thepony's photo at the head OF
the State ticket in the coming election?
There is no doubt, if Buchanan's ex-
Minister to France had but had pony to
assist him he would have been the nomi.

wiser than their fathers have been. We
are all now watching the Faulkner organ
Of this town. 1suppose the proud old
rooster, with which Mr.. Eichelberger (the
former editor Of the Sdtesman) headed It's

that this Is the repetend OF repeating
