men they can employ. They are
crowded with work.
The shirt factory is a hive of in
dustry. On the first floor all goods
are cut and prepared for the sewing
machines. On the second floor are
about 60 girls each with sewing ma
chine--all machines being run by
steam power. The girls work by the
piece. Their rapidity in handling
goods. and feeding the machines,
would indicate that each one was try
ing to outdo the other in the number
Of shirts made each day.
Appleman Bros. are very busy at
their wheelwright factory. Their fac
tory is the only one of the kind in this
section. They take the hard wood
from the stump, haul it to the factory,
split, saw and trim into spokes. Their
trade is increasing and no doubt they
will soon be compelled to enlarge

John A. Chaplin has a fine lot of
summer goods consisting of fy-nets,
lap spreads, whips and fine light har-

'Jno. J. McHenry & Son have a
large stock of all style goods and are
ready to meet their numerous custom

Alfred McHenry since enlarging his
store has added much larger stock,
which has brought him an immense

could do business in the old little
store room. His present one is one

old one. ......- ..

DEDICATION SERVICES.

A large congregation assembled in
the new Presbyterian church in
Bloomsbury on the afternoon of Thurs
day June nth, to take part in the
Dedication Services. The Rev. DR..
Mutchmon of Philadelphia, Editor of
the Presbyterian preached the SER
mon. His talk was on Psalms 81.
He drew illustrations from the habits
of the sparrow and swallow of the
Christians devotion to and benefits
from the Sanctuary. The Services
were participated in by Reverends
DIR. Stuart Mitchell former pastor,
c. Austin of Lewisburg, E. A. Arm
strong of Danville and S. Sears of the
M. f. church of Bloomsburg. After
the sermon statement was read by
the pastor, setting forth the cost of sew
eral items, and of the whole. He sta
ted that balance of $4,000 yet remain
ed to be raised before the dedication.
subscription papers were passed
around and it was soon announced
that the whole amount was subscribed
to be paid either at once or on install
ments. Upon this announcement the
whole congregation joined in singing
the long Metre Doxology. The church
was then solemly dedicated to the
worship Of the Triune God. Thus
ended service to which the congre-
CATION had looked forward, for the
three years in which it was being er-
ected, with deepest interest.
1t was with no small feeling Of
qualification, that the members looked
around them to this beautiful and
commodious building thanking God
that they could take possession with
out being encountered with a debt
which so surely rests as an incubus
upon church's energies. The ac-
oustic properties were found by
actual test to be perfect and the &C.
commodiations sufficient for a consid-
able growth.
In the evening the Rev. Mr.. Steans
of Danville preached to an apprecia-
tive audiance on the work of the Holy
Spirit. ....:..

The report of the death of Conner
Thomas of Danville proved incorrect.
He was badly injured but not killed.
The following account of the accident
is taken from Danville paper:
Mr.. Conner Thomas narrowly es-
capped death while crossing the rail
road an Centre Street, Milton, We'd
nesday morning of last week. He
was driving his team of horses hitched
to a carriage over the road when the
Niagara Express struck the rear end
of the vehicle. tossing it and Mr..
Thomas fifteen feet in the air. He
was badly cut about the right ear and
head and received severe bruises
around the right shoulder and back.
A timely cut from the whip on the
horses was the only thing that saved
Mr.. Thomas life. His cuts were sew
ed and wounds dressed, when he was
able to return to Danville by rail.
