ganizaton had dissolved. A II were real
" glad tn once more hear the musica
strains Of the boys" Better brush
up for the summer and take your ole
stand as one of the best bands in tht
county.
An item in the Mifliinburg Times
and clipped from paper published al
Ottawa, Kansas, states that Rev. >
Henry. a former pastor Of the Mltiiin'
burg Luth. charge, aud well-known TO
many of onr readers, is broken down
in health and owing to that fact is com
PEELED to resign his charge in Ottawa.
He expects to move TO Independence,
where his children are living.
There was preaching in The four
churches Of Millhe!m last Sunday even
ing. Rev. Dei,zler addressed a good
sized audience in the Luth church, Rev.
PC. Weidemyer preached to the Evan =
gelical congregation In the new church,
Rev. wasson preached to his people in
the y. b. church and Rev. Yearick
delivered sermon IN The NJ. I. CHURCH.
The evening was fine and the people
turned out en maSSe to attend the diff
| ferent services.
1t was with regret that many of
our citizens saw landlord 5. L. Frain
leave MillLeim this week. Mr.. Frain,
by his natural adaptedness and enter
prise in conducting hotel, has made
the First National tirst.casS public
house and while his departure is Mill
helms loss it is Selinsgroye's gain.
Mr.. Rook, who took charge of the
house yesterday, will no doubt endeayor
to retain the reputation which Mr..
Fraiu has built up for it, and TO begin
with has equipped the hotel with bran
new furniture from top to bottom.
THE FARMER AGAIN SwINDLED.-
The other day man went through
| Dauphin county with lot Of colored
salt put up in jars, which he represent.
ed was stump consuming powder.
| His instructions were to bore hole in
the stump, fill it with powder, plug up
| the hole, let it stand for SIX weeks and
then set the stump atire and it would
burn away down below the plow line.
The farmers caught on to it rapidly.
| The six. weeks provision was wise
one, for it allo wed the agent to get a.
| way. An EXAMINATION of the powder,
however, proved its worthless qualities
and the farmers can again kick them
selves over being badly fooled. d.-Ex.
