Music Has Charms.

This old saying was very sub
stantially proven by the large and
appreciative audience, who attended
the Concert given by the Middle
burgh Orchestra in the parlor of
Hotel Central last Monday evening.
The programme, u varied one, con-
sisting of the very best selections,
overtures etc, was carefully COM
piled, every number of it proving to
be hit. While the musicians were
anxious to have it be known, that
this Evening out was to be mere
ly a rehearsal, the listeners were on
ly too willing to accept it as IA fine
Concert and enjoyed it as such.
The different members of the
Orchestra must be complimented
upon their fine playing. We were
glad to notice that our genial host,
Mr.. w. H. Smith, was not charmed
to such an extent as to forget the
inner man, and loud are the praises
of those who partook of the bounti-
full luncheon prepared by Mrs,
Smith in her customary, tasty and
liberal way.
A rival orchestra consisting of
Calathumpians did not fare as well.
They hunted an audience, but were
not successful in their search, their
lunch consisted of a pail of water
applied to the outer man. The Joke,
however, was not on them alone,
but large share of it borne by
sparkling couple of pedagogues, who
must have felt very uncomfortable
under the circumsta noes.

1t was made with hatchet. saw
and pocket knife and the contriv.
ance measured 80 inches i'm length.
and to show how perfectly it was
constructed, We need but to mention
that n photograph of the engine was
oaken and those who had not been
previously informed, naturally sup
posed that the picture had been TAX
Ell from full.sized engine such as
pass his fathers house every day on
the Pennsylvania Railroad. Other
objects that require equally as much
genius have been the result of his
dexterity and skill, The little en-.
gine'he produced secured for him
position with the Baldwin Locomo-
tive Works. BY strict attention to
duty he won the respect aud esteem
of the officials aud in IA short time
he was sent long distances to deliver
engines and ct the time of his death
was one Of the leading persons about

The death was due to the ravages
of consumption aud the loss is a
severe blow TO his father who in
March 1893 lost his wife aud in Au.

near Kanta, both of whom have
since died. His education was oh.
tanned i'll the public schools of the
district, his time during the sum.
mer having been spent on the farm.
On November 3, 1861 ho was mar
ried to Rebecca Forty, daughter

tered out of service June first, 1865.
After the war he returned home
and settled down to pursue the life
OF civilian aud the occupation of a
farmer. He pursued this honorable
occupation for a number of years.
About 1879 the grange movement
took possession of the agriculturists
OF the county. Oranges were Or
ganized in many parts of the ooun.
ty. The subject of the sketch con-
uected himself with Penn Grange,

At the institution of the organiza-
tion he was elected Worshipful Mas
ter, which position he retained dur
ing the life of the Grange move
ment. For many years he served as
the Worshipful Master of the
Pomona Grange of Snyder county.
In 1882 the grange idea of open
ing co cooperative store was adopt
ed. An association known rs
Farmers Exchange, Limited" was

HIS ILLNESS.
The history of the illness contin-
ues for number of years, but dur
ing the last three months he has
been bed.fast. Dropsy caused by a
complication of ailments is the
cause Of death. For many weeks
he lay suffering and beyond all hopes
of recovery. Weaker and weaker he
became until half past nine o'clock
on Saturday evening he breathed
his last and passed into his home of
eternal rest where tsufferings never
come and ailiictions are never
known.
