The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages and that is
catarrh. Halls catarrh cure is the only
positive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation OF
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing it's work.

PUPILS ENTERTAINMENT.
PAROCHIAL SCHOOL CHILDREN AT
THE GRAND LAST NIGHT.
seventh Annual Entertainment and
Closing Exercises Attended by IA Large
Audience-Program to BE Repeated
Tomorrow Evening.


Acknowledgment to BE Repeated
Tomorrow Evening"
The seventh annual entertainment by
the pupils of st AIMS parochial school
was given at the Grand opera house last
evening, and as in former years the
building was filled from the orchestra
pit to the last row of seats in the gal
lery.
The usual pretty decorations of the
national colors and growing plants APP
peared on the stage, which, with hun
dreds of little girls in the background,
made a scene of wonderful beauty and
artistic arrangement when the curtain
rose for the opening chorus.
The training which the pupils have
been given by their instructors, the
Sisters of Mercy, was shown in every
number during the lengthy program.
The singing was sweet and pleasing to
the ear, the drills were conducted with
military precision, the recitations were
delivered with an effect that bore every
mark of the art of the eocutionist, and
the musical numbers, both with string
instruments and pianos, were of an
order far above the average heard at
entertainments of this nature.
Among the numbers ON the program
which attracted special attention from
the audience were the parasol drill, the
ride of Paul Revere, the beautiful In
dian story of THE Famine and the
playing of st. Cecilia'S club.
The feature of the evening was the
rendition of the drama, Joan of Arc,"
a story of the great French heroine as
arranged and compiled from historical
facts by II. l.. McMenamin. The
several characters were well placed and
the young ladies and gentlemen did full
justice to the roles assigned them.
Interspersed in the play were num-
bers by the pupils which, while having
no connection with the drama, aided
considerably in Frightening the various
scenes.
Following is the complete program,
repetition of which will be given at the
Grand opera house tomorrow evening at
5 o'clock:

Cripple kidnapped a Boy.

Eleven-year-old Freddie Hopkins, of
Mt. Carmel who was kidnapped one
month ago, has been recovered and is
now safely in the arms of his overioyed
mother, Mrs. Bella Hopkins. 1t was
late Monday afternoon when man
noticed the youth standing in front of
restaurant in Shenandoah. He was cry
ing. The boy stated his name was
Hopkins and that man named Evan
Griffith, cripple, had made him drink
beer and that it had made him sick.
Hopkins was turned over to the police.
after which Evan Griffith, who was in
the neighborhood, was placed under ar
rest.
Constable Levi Deitrick went to Shen-
andoah and brought the man and boy to
Mt. Carmel. When taken home the
little fellow told a narrowing tale of
hardShips. He said that he had been
coaXed to Shamokin, where he and
Griffith boarded a freight train for Sun
bury. Then they went to Bloomsbury.
Nanticoke, Hazleton, Pottsville and
Shenandoah.
At Hazleton young Hopkins said that
he was going home. Griffith then told
him, he says, that if he attempted IT,
leave him he would be dead boy
Hopkins alleges that Griffith compelled
him to steal.
Griffith was acquainted with Mrs.
Hopkins and when he asked her consent
to allow Freddy to visit Shamokin to
spend the day Mrs. Hopkins permitted
the boy to go, since which time nothing
was heard of him.
Griffith was formerly a miner and lost
his arms at Shamokin colliery years
ago. The police at the time of the dis
appearance believed that Griffith
wanted the boy to solicit aims on the
streets, and such is alleged to have
proven the case.

Invented a Butter Packing Machine.

From the Wilkesbarre Record.
Il. r. Cross, of Oneonta, N. y, who
has from time to time been in this sec
tion with patents on wagon and car
riage aXles, endeavoring to interest cap
italists in the erection of factory for
their manufacture, has invented some
thing else which he believes will be-
come of general use in places where it
will be of value.
The latest is a butter packing ma
chine. Heretofore in dairies and other
places where butter is packed the only
way to do it was to place the butter in
chunks in the tubs and then pack it
down by hand.
Mr.. Cross has invented q contrivance
on which two rollers rcvolve on the end
of shaft. The rollers come in con-
tact with the butter and pack it down
smooth and hard and much faster than
by the old way.
He has tested it in New York state
and yesterday in the Hygiene Com
pany's creamery on the West Side and
those who saw it were delighted with
the manner of operation. A more en-
peditious way of packing butter has
long been needed.
Mr.. Cross says that in short time
he will have a factory for the manufac-
ture of his axles and butter packing
machine, but would not say where it is
to be located.
