Is It Right ?

EDITOR HERALD lis it right and Just
that our borough authorities should allow
the playing of numerous bands, the parad-
ing and man@Ivering of military com
panies carrying side arms and dressed in
uniforms similar to those worn by them in
foreign lands, on the American Sabbath,
thereby annoying the religious services
held by other denominations, and at the
same time have law that authorizes the
Burgess to prevent the playing of travelling
musicians on our sidewalks through the
week This law was enforced to day when
the Burgess notified three Italians, who
were discoursing the finest kind of music
from two violins and harp to desist from
doing so on our streets. Why taboo the
Italian and the Little German Band {?
Perhaps it's because they have no political
party a their back to help them out. After
yesterdays celebration l say wipe all such
laws out. AMERICAN.

A Plan by Which the Jr. o. U. A
M. and P. o. 8. of A. Can Build
a Home Of Their Own.
Will They Act q?

During tho past year the p o. 5. Of A
and Jr. o. U. A. Nj. of town have made
rapid strides to the front, and the sugges-
ton has been made that the two orders
above mentioned together with the G A.
r. and Sons of Veterans, form a stock
company and erect handsome and sub
stantial home of their own. At the lowest
estimate the numerical strength of these
organizations can be placed at 200 With
shares issued at $40 each, would give the
company Sl2 0C0 to start with. Quite a
number of the individual members would
undoubtedly subscribe for from five to ten
shares Besides it would afford an oppor-
tunity for a profitable investment of the
surplus cash now lying in the treasures of
these organizations.
There is no question but that such a
move on the part of these organizations
would be a paying investment. Shenan-

tions, and we suggest the members di:cuss
the advissbility of such a movement.
There areseveral available sites that can he
purchased. 1t would afford lodge rooms
for each of these societies, and the first
floors could be used for business places.
We would suggest that a joint meeting
be called to consider the matter. What

building which would be credit to both
the societies and the town.

The Result of Merit.

When anything stands a test of fifty
years among discriminating people like
the Americans, it is pretty good evidence
that there is merit somewhere. The value
of a medicine is best proved by its continued
use from year to year by the same persons
aud families, as well as by steady in
creasing sale. Few, if any, medicines
have met with such continued success and
popularity as has marked the introduction
and progress of Brandreth's Pills, which,
after d trial of over fifty years, are con-
ceded to be the safest and most effective
purgative and blood purifier introduced to
the public.
This is the result of merit, and that
Brsndreth's Pills actually perform all that
is claimed for them, is conclusvely proved
by the fact that those who reg 4rd them
with the greatest favor are those who have
used them the longest.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.

to amateur photographers in the supple

beautiful work done by American amateurs

hotel proprietor was about to start in pur-
suit of the thief, or thieves, the horse
walked into the stable Mr.. Neiswenter
suspected a man residing in Ringtown and
he drove to the mans house last night.
His suspicious we're confirmed by finding
the man absent from his home and failing
to learn his whereabouts. Mr.. Neiswenter
said to-day, "As I lost nothing l will not
go to the trouble of prosecuting the parties
1 suspect, but if am troubled again l will
make things warm for them"

A Great Minstrel entertainment

A large and refined audience was ele-
ganty entertained at the Grand Opera
House last night by AL G. Fields Min
s.rels The entertainment was by all odds
the best in the minstrel line that has ever
appeared in this city, and il would be
difficult to imagine in what respect il could
be improved All the parts were so perfect
in themselves that it would seem unjust to
particularize any one part without mem
tioning ALL and this is not possible owing to
lack of space The show is simply great
all around, affords an infinite variety of
chaste and wonderful entertainment dif-
ferent from all precedents in minstrelsy,
and is par excellence tho most attractive
and interesting entertainment of this
character that is on the road to-day.
Fields Minst-elsa are worthy of the heartiest
words of commendation for their successful
efforts to smuse and entertain the public,
and should meet with generous recogni-
tion, evidenced in big houses wherever they
may appear. They are sure winners of
