THE CENTENNIAL BANQUET.

The Most Monstrous Entsrtainuent Ever
Given Complete Success.
The banquet was the most remarkable
one ever held in America. or perhaps In
the world, in point Of arrangement and
execution Of detail. The chief steward,
seated at central point, directed every
movement of the army Of subordinates
by means Of electricity. At q touch OF
his bell, every roast was carved. every
cork drawn, every course served, stimuli
taneously, thus avoiding any confusion
of courses or wines, insuring the perfect
accuracy Of every movement on the
part Of the assistants. Tho cost Of the
banquet Ia said to have been $35, 600.
At 0 o'clock the Appearance Of Mrs.
Harrison and party in the presidents
box, followed quickly by that OF hum
dreds Of other ladies', gave the signal for
the speaking to begin. The vast thcater
was then crowded with . distinguished
audience. Mayor Grant announced the
following toasts and sentiments IN their
order;

time the presidential party left st. Pauri
on their way TO the sub-treasury most
of the troops which took part IN the par
ado were massed about Wall. Pine. Rec
tor and other streets in the vicinity.
The route Of the procession was lined
with such vast crowds that passage
along the streets was impossible. From
curbstone to the adjacent buildings the
multitude was packed in without regard
to human comfort and i'll betide the
luckless mortal who was sick or weak.
Individual rights were not to be thought
of and the weak went to the wall-liter'

from the curbstone and the center OF
attraction.

Easter Lifting"



A peculiar Easter Sunday custom is still
in England. On that day the men parade
the streets with the privilege of '%lifting"
every woman they meet three times from
the ground, and demanding in payment
either a kiss or a sixpence. On Easter Mon
day the tables are turned, the women being
entitled to the chance of recovering their
kisses or sixpences as the case may be,
Chambers's Book of Days thus alludes to
this custom of lifting: I'm Lancashire, and
shire. and perhaps in other counties, the
ridiculous custom of lifting or 'heaving.'
is practiced. On Easter Monday the men
lift the women, and on Easter Tuesday
the women lift, or heave, the men.
The process is performed by two
lusty men or women joining their
hands across each others wrists; then,
making the person to be heaved sit down
on their arms, they lift him up alOft two or
three times, and often carry him several

Joseph Wesley Written, who went to the
war twenty.seven. years, ago, has just re-
turned to his mothers home in Pleasant
Gap, near this city. For twenty-five years
he was believed to have been dead, and his
mother, now Mrs. Edward Stoner. has been
mourning over his supposed fate all that
time. The incidents which have occurred
since the time he left home until their
meeting a few days ago seem like a page
from fiction.
Wesley and his brother went to the bat
tle-field one bright morning in May and
joined Company c, Eighth Pennsylvania
Volunteers, and in their first fight the
brother was killed and Wesley was danger

close of the war they returned home and
reported that he died at that place. His
real fate, however. was worse than that, as
he now says. His experience in these
twenty-five years is given in his own words,

One day Whittier and other slaves were

backs to be loaded on a PHILADELPHIA

always accompanied the slaves, and he told
his story to the captain. who aided him in
his escape, and he was carried back to the
United States. He went direct to Millers
town, Perry county, where he had left his
mother, but she had long since married q
second time, and left there. No one seemed
to remember her. and Written gave her III

George Williams, one of his friends of many
years ago, and found him at the Rush
House, this place. and from him Whittier
learned where his mother was.
Mrs. Stoner, whose grief for her supposed
dead son had caused her to become broken
down, is now one of the happiest women ia
be found. and she is now more like q
woman of twenty than sixty-five. Written
shows his friends the scars on his back

his story of his cruel treatment.

Caught PLAYING Poker,


The police raided a gambling-room, yes
terday afternoon, in the rear of Smiths
saloon, on Massachusetts, avenue, near North
street. For some time residents in that
vicinity have complained about men
who make the place their resort on
Sundays, and the police have
been awaiting an opportunity to capture
the crowd. Yesterday they were notified
that the place was filled with visitors, and
patrOlmen Matthey and Hogan, with the
assistance of three other p%atrolmen,
went there. !nquiring at the door
who were within, the officers re-
{ ived the reply that some friends
ha gathered to spend the afternoon in
conversation. but admission was refused.
Hearing the CHATTER of cards and chips, the
door was broken from its hinges and the
officers dashed in, arresting every one of
the crowd. The men, twevle in number,
made no resistance, and all of them were
slated at the police. station, where they
gave fictitious names. for visiting gambling
houses. They will be given a hearing in

When win the state Get Money?

State Treasurer Lemcke and Auditor of
State Carr are expected home from New
York early this week, perhaps to-day. There
will be no additional steps toward procur-
ing financial relief for the State until they
return and make known all the details of
their efforts to place the States bonds. In
case they fail to secure a satisfactory loan,
1t is probable that immediate steps will be
taken to test the constitutionality of the
act. Encouragement Kitchener has no
fear but that the Supreme Court will sus-
tain the act, and it is the opinion of all the
State officers that such a cOurse would be
the wiSest one to pursue.

They Looked Alike.

The Lewiston Journal tells of twin sis
ters who formerly lived in Waldo county.
Maine, who looked so much alike that no
one out of the family could distinguish
Jane from Susan, and their father himself
was sometimes puzzled. Susan had a
beau" very. devoted young man, who
called often and stayed late, so often and so
late that the young lady began to feel the
lack of sleep. and remarked. one after
nOOn,- that she almost hoped George
wouldn't come tonight. why can't |
take your place for once and give you
a vacationf" asked her sister. The offer
was at once accepted; the tired damsel got
a good nights sleep. and George never knew
that he spent one evening from 8 p. NJ. until
"a. NJ. in James society, until several years
after he and Susan were happily married.
A similar story may be told of two Boston
twins, brothers. OneOf them had engaged
to take a young lady to the theater, but
from some cause 1t was incOnvenient for
him to do So. He. therefore, deputed the
pleasing service to his brother, and the
young lady did not detect the deception.
