Virgins narrowly escaped serious,
if not fatal, fall. AS one of the

only saved himself by Selling the

holding to it he had the flesh on

but by exerting his strength was

A Nuisance.

The old log pond above Port

and through the heat of summer
becomes stagnant. The health of

The Cfautauqua Picnic.

The Chautauqua Circle of Rising
Sun held its commencement" pic
mic last Saturday. The Circle and
its friends, numbering in all about
35 persons, went to the river at
Octoraro Junction, which is to say,
changing the Indian vernacular into
prosy English, at point where the
'Rocky Serpent" and "Roaring
Water" meet. Those having a
penchant for fishing, that dreamy
sport immortalized by Izaak Wal
ton, carried along their fishing
tackle and a box of worms. This
is a good spot to 60 bass fishing but
not much of a picnic ground. There
are plenty of bashes and enough
green sward to spread table cloths
on which to empty the picnicers
delight, baskets which display that
variety bill of fare nowhere else to
be found but on picnic excursion.
Soon the hooks were baited and
lines cast from the bow of a boat
that was chained and locked to a
water birch tree at the stern, while
its bow rested on the "placid
waters" of "Rocky Serpent" where
they mingle with "Roaring
Water" Soon the anglers were
drawing out little "yellow neds,"
baby sunfsh and infant bass. Quite
a good string of this minnow fry
was secured, and one of the girls
''toted" them home declaring she
would have Sunday morning fry
if she could coax her big brother to
scale the fish.
The young men obtained boat
while the fishing was at its height
and the customary tintab u-lation
of sounds that accompany Il jolly
bevy of fishermen, the most of
whom are girls, was kept up: "Oh!
J have a bite, ''-'bait my hook, -
''where as the worms, "-"take off
my fish, "-"oh, Tve caught a
bass.n
The chartered boat was soon
loaded down to her guards with the
''beauty and chivalry" of that COM
pany, and skilled nayigators of the
company poled the old battered
bateau up the creek few yards
and returned, while volume of
song foated to the shore which
made the Gland lubbers" cease
their prattle for moment and
exclaim: "Isn't that beautiful"
When all this and more of the
same sort had TRANSFERRED, some one
looked at his watch and said it was
twelve O'Clock, and a chorus of
voices in major and minor key and
in every note in the scale declared
they were "a- WIN | ! hungry"
And in a jif1y the "snowy linen"
was spread on the green sward, the
baskets gave out their multitude of
good thing and the company squat
ted like toads round the sacrifice to
the spirit of hunger. And then it
occurred that there was preacher
in that crowd who answered to the
euphoneous name of Rooms, There
are three places or occasions at
which a preacher is almost always
found; a funeral, wedding and
feast. On all of these occasions the
preacher is called upon to repeat
short prayer. For some reason,
the origin of which we do not
know, this short prayer at the feast
is called a grace" On this green
