A NEW feature will be introduced
in the free school commencement
this year, namely, contest in each
department for proficiency in declam-
alton, essay and grafton. Already
the pupils are preparing for the
event and it will no doubt stimulate
the scholars to do their best in the
several branches named.
The quietude which reigned SUI
preme on Saturday night last was
quite noticeable, especially to the
good citizens who are annoyed by
the average beer bibber every Satur-
day night. The reason for all this
is quite obvious, namely, no liquor
to be sold in town. Any man who
says anti-license is not a benefit has
not the peace ofthe community at
heart.

The Stewartstown Racket.

For some years past there has been
feeling of enmity between the fam
lilies of John Dietrich and j.. d. Sis
Ter, ST., which on several occasions
had become so intense as to bring
the parties almost to the fighting
point, but not until Saturday night
last had violence been INDUCED in
On the evening mentioned George
Dietrich and Allen Sisler engaged
in fisticuff, in which Sisler was
pretty badly used up. His wounds
were the cause of his brothers, Lo
reno, Alonzo and Judson vowine
vengeance on the entire Dietrich
family, and on Sunday morning they
proceeded to demonstrate the VOWS
made on the evening previous.
Sunday School was in session al
Pleasant Hill school house, neal
Stewartstown at 10 o'clock Sunday
morning and during the course o.
the exercises George and Floriar
Dietrich came in and took
their seats in classes. In 9
few moments after, two of the
Sisler boys also came in, ano
took seats. They retained their pc
sitions quietly for about 10 minutes
when they suddenly arose and at
tackled the Dietrichs. The scrapt
had hardly begun until the Sisters

After the process of pummellins
had proceeded to the satisfaction o
the attacking party they desistet
and quietly stole away.
An investigation of the wounded
then took place, and it was fount
that George Dietrich was rather Sc
verely injured, having received sew

about his face and head. Floriar
