Notice..

] wish to give notice to persons
travelling to and from Bailey Run and
crossing over the ridge on what is
known as the Freeman farm, that this
can no longer be allowed. Since the
Climax Powder Company has for
hidden persons crossing their premises
this route has been adopted. l have
posted notices forbidding tresspassing
and hereafter any person disregarding
them will just as surely be prosecuted.
This is necessary for my own protec-
ton. My fences are broken down, my
cattle are left out and have been milk
ed in the pastures, and my sheep have
had stones thrown after them for the
fun of seeing them run. Forebearance
has ceased to be virtue and hereafter
all persons must keep off this property
or suffer the consequences.

1emOriaI Day Observed

Despite the fact that there was no
regular program laid out for the OBJ
servance of Memorial Day in Empori-
um, our citizens took great pride in
decorating the graves OF the "fallen
heroes" who are buried here After
the arrival Of the 1880 train from the
east, several members of Post 241, C.
4. r., marched to the cemeteries and
declzed with beautiful wreaths and
garlands Of flowers, the graves of their
comrades who have answered to the
last roll call.
Throughout the entire day our citi-
zens could be seen vending their way
to the ''slent city Of the dead" to
place on the final resting place of their
loved ones some beautiful token of
remembrance. Those who visited
both cemetaries say that they present
ed beautiful scene, being literally
strewn with flowers.

Small Blaze.

An alarm of fire was given about
two O'Clock Tuesday morning, in the
east ward, which was quickly respond
ed to by the Citizens Hose Company.
The blaze was found to be at the large,
double tenement house, now vacant,
on the corner of West Third street,
near Hockley's coal yard, and was
soon eXtinguished without the aid of
the uptown companies.
This is the second time within a
week that this building has been on
fire, and it is clearly the work of in
cendaries, as it has originated both
times on the southeast corner of the
building, near a narrow alley.

After several beautiful anthems by the
choir, the audience arose and sang
America. a prayer was then offered
by Rev. Robt. McCaslin who was fol-
lowed by the Rev. w. r. Mcneil.
The reverend gentleman was thorough
ly prepared to handle his subject in a
mastery manner and delivered one of
the most interesting discourses ever
listened to in Emporium. The mem

Acid Works DESTROYED.

On Tuesday evening at few min
utes before six, the watchmen at the
Climax Powder Works discovered that
the section Of the plant known as the
acid works was on fire. All the factory
hands had left the works little while
previous to the breaking out of the fire,
and the watchmen being unable to get
the flames under control directed their
efforts to the saving of the surround
ing buildings. They were successful
in preventing the fire from spreading
to the adjacent buildings but the acid
works were totally destroyed.

A Question of Importance.

MR.. EDTOR:-There is q response
billty incumbent upon each and every
citizen and that is the recognition of
our laws. There are some laws how
ever, that appear to be dead-letters
and completely ignored by class of
our citizens-the local bicycle riders.
Sidewalks are built by the property
owners for the especial use of pedes-
trians. They are not built nor kept in
order out of a general fund and such
being the case the property owner has
got to keep them in good order, in ac-
cordance with the borough ordinances,
When we refuse or neglect to comply
with these laws our Council does not
hesitate to enforce the laws, yet
here are other laws overlooked and
not enforced. 1t has gotten now that
the bicyclist confscates the entire side.
walk to their especial use and the
pedestrian takes the street if he wants
to walk in safety. Such q state of
effairs do really exist at the present
time in Emporium. 1t certainly is
humiliating for two reasons:
First-Because it is dangerous to
children as well as other pedestrians
and secondly because if not stopped
it will at some future time, sooner or
later, involve our borough in difficult
complications. |, as a citizen and tax
payer, in behalf of the general welfare
of our town, advocate the enforcing of
those laws by the proper authorities.

TO lombard BOSTON,

MADRID, June 1S.-There are a mum
Der of rumors in circulation here as "a
the destination of Admiral Camara !
fleet. One has it that the Spanish war
ships are now heading for Boston, with
the intention of bombarding New Eng
land towns, and another report sets
forth that the Spanish reserve feet Is
going to the Philippine islands.
The Liberal reiterates the declaration
that 'if Spain has nothing to hope
from the powers she is still able to Gle
fend herself"
Captain Aunon, after the departure
of Admiral Camara, wired the premier
the following message:
"The reserve squadron and the troops
of the expeditionary corps, on leaving
Spanish waters, send greetings to the
government and to the fatherland, and
affirm their desire to fight for them,
The minister of marine also tele-
graphed to the queen regent enthusi-
astic greetings from the squadron and
the announcement of the determine
ton to fight to the last for the national
honor.
1t is announced that Captain Aunon,
after inspecting the arsenal at Cartha
gena will return to this city and organ
ize third squadron of warships. He
sent message to the premier that he
was much satisfied with the condition
of the squadron of Admiral Camara.
WASHINGTON, June 1S.--The Cadiz
fleet is being narrowly watched, al
though the naval view is not similar to
that taken by the army officers. The
former do not attach as much import
ance to this fleet as the latter, and few
of the officers can be found to believe
that tie ships will ever venture far
from the Spanish coast, much less at
tempt to cross the Atlantic or go to the
Philippines. The list of vessels in this
fleet Is rather formidable i'll sound, bur
| as matter of fact, it includes not NOR
than two up-to-date modern war yes
sells, excepting the small torpedo gun
boats. 1t is certainly the opinion of
the naval officers here that if Dewey
had the Monterey with him, he would
have no difficulty in repulsing the
whole Spanish force, while the Cadiz
fleet would only afford pastime for
SIMPSONS steel bulldogs.

SO hours without food. The insurgents
are gaining everywhere and are no
firing into Manila itself.
Whole companies of Spaniards have
had nothing to eat for two days and
some of them are literally crying. It is
a pitiable sight. The native peasantry
charitably assist the starving soldiers
without compulsion and some English
men yesterday gave a treat to the sol
diers guarding an outpost. They bought
wandering hawker's stock of eatables
for few shillings and gave the food to
the soldiers, who said it was the first
food they had tasted for SO hours.
