through Spanish treachery.

Ho, For Glen 0noko.

If you want a days outing, take
your wife, or your sweetheart, or
someone else's sweetheart, and 90
with the P. o. S. of A. picnic and
excursion to Glen Onoko, on July 2sd.
Glen Onoko is situated about two
miles from Mauch Chunk. Cars run
between the two places every few
minutes. 1t is a piece of natures
handiwork. There are magnificent
pleasure grounds, where every accom-
mediation is at hand to make picnic
kers comfortable. 1t is a beautiful
place, succession of beautiful falls,
cataracts and cascades, meet the eye
at almost every step, natural bridges,
over rushing, roaring torrents, which
seethe and boil under the feet of the
awe-stricken pleasure seekers, huge
assures of lofty rocks, giving proof of
old time convulsions of nature, and
overhanging cliffs, portends danger,
and makes the journey all the more
awe-inspirlng and gloriously grand.
Remember the date, July a3d.

New Postal Gard.

After July I, it will be permissible
for private parties to print postal
cards. A circular has been issued by
the postoffice department at Wash
lngton which states the form that
must be complied with in the issuance
of these cards.
They must not be larger than size
"H" of the government cards, which
is 3x49 inches. Nothing but the ad-
dress is to be written upon the side of
the card upon which the stamp is
placed, although any advertising de-
vice may be placed in the upper left
hand corner. 1t is also necessary to
print the words, "Private Postal Card,
Authorized by Act of Congress, pass
ed May 1o, 1885," upon the address
side.
These cards will go under the same
rights as the regular postal cards, af
ter a one-cent stamp is affixed to
them. The idea has never been tried
in this country, although it is in sue
cessful operation in Canada.

Water Ices.

Water ices are inexpensive, delici-
Gus and seasonable. They are a
trifle more troublesome to make and
require a much longer time in freez-
ing, but their lesser cost is more than
compensation. The recipe given is
for lemon ice, but with the variations
of little less sugar and of different
fruits, it may be used with either
oranges, pineapples, raspberries,
strawberries, cherries and currants.
A sherbet may be made by adding,
just before packing the white of an
egg beaten to stiff froth, into which
has been mixed a tablespoonful of
fine sugar.
To make the lemon water ice, boil
for FIVE minutes exactly one quart of
water and one pound and a quarter
of white sugar, to which has been
added the rind of three lemons and
of one orange. Remove whatever
scum arises and strain the syrup while
hot through a muslin bag. When
cool mix the juice of four lemons and
of one orange with the syrup; strain
second time and freeze. .

Net Fishing is Unlawful,
Important Opinion by Deputy Attorney Gen.
eraI Reeder.

According to an opinion by deputy
attorney general Reeder fishing with
fyke nets is unlawful in the streams in
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
The opinion was given to w. E.
Meehan, assistant secretary of the
Pennsylvania fish commission, and
decides as follows; First it is unlaw-
full to use any fyke or net or nets of
any kind, or device made of cotton
or flax twine or wire netting similar to
a fyke net for the purpose of catching
fish in any of the waters of this COM
monwealth. Second, suckers, eels
and catfish may be caught in the
open seasons in streams other than
private trout streams, but the same
cannot be done by means of any
seine, fyke net or device as above
described similar to fyke nets.
Colonel Reeder says in the same
opinion that there is no law to pre-
vent persons or corporations from
emptying chemicals from their factor
les into streams for the simple reason
that fish are thereby destroyed.
"Such an act may be restrained" he
adds, "where the act of the person or
corporation becomes public nuisance
and menace to the health of the
people, but in that event it must be
evidenced as nuisance"
An opinion was also given that
counties must pay $500 toward the
wardens' expenses.

FLAG RAISING.

The corner of Leonard and Main
Streets was the scene of a very
patriotic demonstration, in the shape
of a flag raising ON Thursday even
ing of last week. Fully thousand
people witnessed the ceremonies.
The poles, two beauties, one on
each side of Main Street had pre-
viously been placed, and everything
was in readiness for the raising. AS
the cherished emblem was being
suspended in the air, the Blooms
burg Band played the Star Spangled
Banner, a large number joining in
the chorus. Speeches were made
by J. c. Brown, of the Republican,
and Fred Ikeler Esq. The flag is
I2xIS. 1t was purchased by sub
scription through the efforts of M.
I. Hennessy.

OEVERA's FLEET Is NO MORE.

The plucky Spanish Cevera with
his splendid fleet, after being bottled
up in the harbor at Santiago for
three long weeks, resolved on Sun-
day to escape from the harbor if
possible, and as a result of his dar-
ing his fleet, the cream of the Span
ish navy, now lies in ruins ON the
Cuban coast.
He made plucky fight against
overwhelming odds, but was COM
PEELED to surrender. The Spanish
loss Of ships is complete with 1900
prisoners, while the American loss
is only one man killed and one
wounded, with no damage at all to
Our ships.
This victory will have the effect
of commanding more respect for
American warships hereafter, aud
will teach the other nations of the
world that we are capable of taking
care of ourselves in Our own way.
This should put an end to the
war. 1t is high time that Spain
realizes her position. She cannot
hope for anything better, and every
move she makes only carries her
nearer ruin.
Spain now has no more vessels on
this side of the Atlantic, and the
progress of Shafter and his troops
about Santiago should be quick,
short and decisive.

$50 LOST AT SEA.

The French Line Steamship
Bourgogne, which left New York
a few days, with S5I souls on
board, collided with the British
Cromartyshire, early on the morn

Frost's Woods.

Mr.. John e. McCloud is a young man
about 81 years of age, who has been en-
ployed for a ear past in the ladder fac
tory at York. About week ago he went
to Bryant's Pond on his wheel to visit
his relatives. Yesterday he was on his
way back to Portland, and when he
reached Erost's woods on the tray road.
he dismouted from his wheel and walked
little way intending to sit down ana
rest.
All at once a man darted out OF the
woods and seized McCloud by the throat.
while another came up behind and threw
him to the ground. He was told that ii
he gave sound they would split his
weazen and he prudently kept quiet
The men went through him, secured seven
dollars and a half in money and then
went back into the woods. AS soon as
he recovered from the shock McCloud re-
mounted his wheel and came to Portland
reported the affair to Deputy Sterling,
and as he was strapped was given
quarters at the station.
