July.

Monday we stepped into July, the har-
vest month. 1t was originally designated
Quintdnus, in reference to Its fifth place in
the calendar. 1t having been the month in
which Julius Cesar was born, after the
death OF this Emperor the name was
changed to July, in honor of that great
warrior. Our Saxon ancestors called it
Hay monath, "because they then therein
usually moved and made their hay-bar-
vest" The month of July is not con-
sidered fayorite season of the year. 1t
has its uses in the economy of nature-it is
a good haying and harvesting month-but
aside from that it is the best month in the
year to run away from, 1t is prolific of
green fruit and the stomach ache, and it
kills of more young children than all the
other months put together. 1t is the
season, too, for sunstrokes, whether the
Thermometer is is among the nineties or
not. One great use of the month apparent
ly is to put money into the pockets of the
ice men to reduce the temperature of
strong drinks so that they can be swallowed
easily. So far July has hardly been up to
the average in point of temperature, but
there Is plenty of time for 1t to make up
for all deficiencies.

On the End of July, twentY-six years
ago, Captain Solomon Yeakel marched into
Gettysburg at the head of his company
and charging on the Rebels drove them
back in discord from the foot of Little
Round Top. 1t was a bloody battle and
decided the fate of the civil war. 1t made
heroes at great cost but saved Pennsyl-
vannia from further invasion. In honor
of this auspicous event Captain Yeakel on
Tuesday swung a beautiful flag to the
breezes from lofty flag staff on his pro-
perty.
-Ebenzer church of Weissport held its
9th annual Children's Day exercises in
their church on Sabbath evening. A large
audience had gathered long ere it was time
for the exercises; the aisles being filed with
benches and crowds were turned away.
At 7;30 the exercises began BY an address
of welcome by Miss Tillie Deibert; short
speeches followed which were interspersed
with singing. The different parts taken
by the infant school could not have been
surpassed and the school can not give too
much credit to the teacher Miss Mary
Whitehead. The recitation by the II girls
Jesus loYes u.s." could not have been ex-
celled and showed much care taken by the
teacher. A temperance speech by Miss
Laura Beaver and the recitation by Eva
Romig subject Nobody's Child was grand.
After which Rev. Arndt made q few brief
remarks and the 9th annual Children's
Day was soon thing of the past. The
receipts of the jug breaking amounted to
$17.0S. LES.

The Slatington B. B. Club failed to 60
to Lehighton last Saturday owing to the
Catcher not being in time to take the train
And some of the players would not go
without him so the rest Of them had to stay
here also. Owing to some dispute last Sat-
urday between the players and the Man
ager in regards to the game which was to
be played at Lehighton, Manager Q. A.
Stettler, Immediately resigned as Manager
OF the Slatington B. B. Club. -NeUs. Com
ment is unnecessary, further than the fact
that Stettler is gentleman.
-Slatington failed to mateIialize Satur-
day to the disappointment of quite large
number of the lovers of the National game
who had assemble on the grounds. The
management returned admission tickets
and treated the Yotaries of the sport to
well played game between two picked
picked mines. Much indignation is ex-
pressed for the mean manner in Which
Slatington acted. No cause is assigned for
their non-appearance but it is conjectured
that they did not like the idea of having
two successive defeats from Lehighton,
and took the above means to save them
selves. 1t was a small way of sneaking
out of an agreement but what can YOU do
about it? You know the articlep

Americas Fastest Railway Train, and the
Great Record IL Has Made

Great Record 1t Has Made.
The "two-hour train" which leaves the
Reading Railroad station at Ninth and
Green for New York at 7.30 A. NJ is the
fastest scheduled railway train in the
United States. In addition to this dlstinc-
tion, IL has made record for precision and
regularity of movement which high author
tiles declare to be without precedent in the
history of railroads. From January list TO
June lst, this train made 1870 trips-that is,
trip every day except Sunday-and in the
five months it reached its destination be-
hind time on only nine occasions, and In
these instances the maximum variation
from the timetable was but feWshinutes.
On the remaining 121 trips it arrived on
schedule time to the second, averaging "a
per cent, of absolute promptness. This un-
paralleled showing demonstrates that the
Reading Railroad not only possesses luag
nificent a completely-equipped line between
Philadelphia and New York, but also that
1t is managed with rare ability and with
close regard to the requirements OF the
public. .-Philddelphia Times,

A QUESTION OF JOINT RATES.
Joint Rates.


DEs MorNEs, Ia, August 9,-TSpecial Telo.
gram to The BEE. The railroad commis-
sioners to-day rendered very important do
cision on the question Of JOINT rates, in
answer TO complaints Of Burlington and
Davenport jobbers. When the complainants
appeared before the commissioners some
weeks ago they charged that tho railroads,
by refusing to make joint rates whore two
or more lines were used, caused delays IN
their shipments, to the advantage OF Chicago
and other competitors: They said that they
were compelled to rebill and reship at all
junction points. instead of being allowed one
through shipment, as heretofore. They
asked the commissioners to compel the roads
to put in joint tariffs which would be lower
than the sum of the two locals and avoid
the trouble ana delay of reshipments.
The question was one of great importance,
and the railroads insisted that the commits
sioners had no right under the law to do this.
The commissioners, IN voluminous opinion,
sustained them as to this fact, and 90 fur.
ther and intimate that law compelling them
to put Ia JOINT tariff would require that
each of the companies be compelled to enter
into joint obligations with corporations with
whom they were unwilling to have contract
relations, and such law would be unconsti-
tutional." 106 Massachusetts, Ia
The commissioners sustain the charges OF
delays and Determinations caused by the
present system. The commissioners say, IN
conclusion:
"The last legislature authorized and d.
rected the commissioners to fix minimum
rates of freights for each of the railroads of
Iowa. II directed specifically how these
rates were to be made, pointing out the
different steps to be taken, thereby limiting
any general powers with reference to rate
regulation that the commissioners nigh,
have been authorized by previous statute
to exercise. The authority of the com
missioners is derived from the statute, ana
beyond its express provisions, they can not

receive as much as he thought he should
have for the money. He demonstrated with
the bartender, AL Burke, and turned to pour
the beer out into glass 10 measure II. When
his back was turned to Burke the latter
struck him on the head with a pair of brass
knuckles, fracturing his skull and fell
