AN ETHNIC ENTERTAINMENT.
Picturesque and Instructive Exhibi.
tion by Natives Of the Orient.

For thousands of years India and its
curious inhabitants have been known
to the world. but there Is as much spec
ulation today among Christian nations
as to the manners and customs of the
people residing there n ever. with
view of entertaining and instructlng
the public of America, the Barnum 4
Bailey Greatest Show on Earth present
this season lot of people from India
whom they brought over. together with
their huts, temples, tools, implements,
ewapons, and musical instruments, by
whom. and through which, an exhib!-
tion is given of a most picturesque and
charming kind.
There are Singhalese, Burmese,
Malays, Madras dancing girls. mem-
bers of the Hydrabad theatrical troupe,
Tiger and Devil mask dancers. Gotta
dwarfs, Cocoanut tree climbers. Silver
dancers, kandain priests. besides many
others. all of whom afford a most
charming and delightful entertainment.
Exhibitions are given of the curious
manner of climbing trees and large
trees have been provided for the climb
ers. up which they ascend with start
ling rapdity. Ravishingly pretty girls,
with brown skins and flashing eyes,
gracefully execute sacred dances, the
same as have been performed in the
tempels before the priests for three 10
five thousand years past. Jugglers show
their almost miraculous powers Of mys-
tiication. vocalists sing the songs of
triumph. rejoicing and marriage, ma

THEY WE'RE HEARD FROM.


The Lackawanna county delegation
was made up of a majority of young
men who let the people of Freeland know
they were living.
Street car service between Freeland
and Hazleton is all that can he desired.
The distance is covered in A. minutes
and the cars go at such rapid rate
that along certain level stretches 20
miles an hour is easily made. 1t is all
right If some day car load of pas
sengers isn't killed. The road does not
run through the streets of the villages
between Freeland and Hazleton; it
passes through unseated land princi-
pally, and the motorman is relieved Of
the necessity of ringing his bell for
wagons and pedestrians: cows and
goats take the place of these.
Barnum's circus is holding forth In
Hazleton today, and all streets lead to
that city, but the street parade there
did not'make its appearance on account
Of tho rain. which began to .all at
$50 last night and made the weather
nlise'a able and dreary. The conductors
on the street cars are very accommo-
dating. On a trip from Hazleton this
morning the conductor, after the car
left the city limits, walked inside with
a cigar In his mouth and in a very grac-
lous way said, Smoke up, gentlemen"
rive male passengers We're aboard, and
all had something to smoke except one.
TO this one the conductor handed
cigar. and we had a smoker on the
way to Freeland. Two or three women
at different points signalled that they
wanted to get on, but the conductor
wouldn't stop, as it would interfere
with the pleasure of his guests. The
women had to wait for the next car.

bishopric. such auspicious event having
transpired within the past year.
Resolved. That as n means of increasing
the membership of the societies We rec
ommend that social sessions be conducted
N the conclusion OF each regular meet
ing at which debates on topics of general
interest could be indulged in. and inu-
steal and literary programme given, which
would awaken interest among the MEM
bers. We believe this would tend to make
meetings an attraction and would ulti-
mately cause material increase in the
membership. That We deprecate the prac-
tice of members joining a number Of total
abstinence societies for material gain and
believe that the moral work Of the union
should predominate in the minds of its
members.
Resolved. That We rec.Snize the worth
of the press AS an agency for the dis
semination of thought. and as a'potent fac
tor in moulding public affairs, and earn
estiy commend TO the attention OF the
press OF the country the laudable work
being done by our societies.
Resolved, That as American citizens We
join In protesting against any union OF
church and state in this country, believing
that both have separate spheres and
should be free to act. That as the free
dom of conscience is the bulwark of our
liberty. We condemn the threatened in
vssion of this privilege as tending to 1e-
stroy the material rights which all men
should enjoy.
Resolved. That the thanks of this con-
venton are due and are hereby rendered
to the president and other officers of the
Diocesan union for their earnest and eff
