Lectures at the Normal,

Dr. Welsh of the Normal School
has completed arrangements whereby
Mr.. Thomas Whitney Surette, will de-
liver an attractive course of lectures
on "Great Composers of the Classical
Period" in the Normal Auditorium on
the evenings Of October 10, II, "a,
FL and November 7 and ID.
Mr.. Surettes lectures are designed
to interest and instruct the same audi
ences which listen to lectures on other
subjects, and are by no means for
musical people alone. The only re-
qulrement necessary in listening to
them is a certain appreciation of
beauty, such as is common to nearly
all persons, and a desire to get in
touch with the thoughts OF great men.
The subjects are treated simply and
clearly, and there have been repeated
assurances that the lectures are under
stood by persons who possess no musi-
cal knowledge whatever. The greatest
practical benefit of the lectures lies
not so much in their historical quail
ties as in the help they afford the lis
tener in appreciating and understand
Ing the best music-they teach them
how to listen.
The different compositions played
or sung in connection with each lee
ture are first given in detail, the lee
turer showing how the musical ideas
are arranged in relation to each other,
what their characteristic qualities are
and how they reflect the composers
personality and the general thought of
the time. Everything is explained
clearly and without the use of techni-
cal terms, and experience has shown
that great music, presented to an
audience in this manner, never fails
to interest and delight. The musical
selections cover wide range and in
clude many of the most popular prices
OF the different composers represented.
The stereopticon illustrations which
are shown at the close of the Lecture
consist of portraits of the great com.
posers, and of scenes connected with
their lives, as we'll as of reproductions
of letters, musical scores, cuts of old
instruments, paintings, ETC., by which
the comparisons drawn between the
different Arts are enforced.
The price of tickets for the entire
course will be $I.a5, and can be had
at S. R. Bidleman's Book Store. or
the Normal School Office. Admission
to single lecture, IS cents.

The Nescopeck Bridge,

An opinion was handed down by
Judge Halsey Thursday i'll the mat
ter of the acquisition by the coun-
ties of Columbia and Luzerne of
the toll bridge between Nescopeck
and Berwick. The viewers of the
bridge reported favorably on the
project, and those who were op-
posed petitioned for the privilege of
filing exceptions to the report of
the viewers. In his opinion Judge
Halsey denied the request of the
petitioners, on the ground that the
Act of 1899 does not authorize the
filing of exceptions at this stage of
the proceedings, 49, WIReS- Barre

BIG FIRE AT BERWICK.
The Store Company Building Reduced to
Ashes.

Berwick was visited by a very
destructive fire about half past six
O'Clock Sunday morning, which
wiped out the large Store Company
building and the general offices OF
the American Car and Foundry
Company. 1t was started, it is sup
posed, from the explosion of some
chemicals IN the cellar.
Immediately after its discovery
several persons rushed into the
burning structure, and succeeded in
saving all the valuable documents
belonging to the American Car and
Foundry Company. The loss will
be heavy, but it is fully covered by
insurance.
The proprietors of the store have
secured quarters in the Opera House
block and are conducting business
at that place.

well and Harry Lee Kline, of Blooms

The bride wore a beautiful crea-
tlon of mousseline de sole over white

bride roses and her only attendants
were two neatly-dressed flower girls,
who led the bridal procession to the
parlor. They were Florence Brobst,
cousin Of the bride, and Della Form
wald, niece of the groom. The inter-
ior of the home was handsomely dec
GRATED with palms, ferns, while drap.
eries were hung in every available
place. AS they entered the parlor
Miss Carrie Fleckenstine played Men
delssohn's wedding march. After a
wedding supper Mr.. ard Mrs. Kline
left for Scranton, where an elegant
furnished home awaits them.
The groom is employed as book
keeper for Nelson Morris & Co., at
Scranton. The bride is an accom-
plished young lady and popular in the
circle in which she moves.
The display Of wedding presents
was unusually large and handsome,
including china and glassware, parlor

Confirms the Report.

The report of the suicide of Mar
win R. McHenry, son of Ira Nc
Henry of Benton, is confirmed by the
following taken from the Bi-monthly
Freedom of August IS, published at
Manila.
"Private McHenry of Co. II I4th
United States Infantry committed sui
eide at the Malate barracks. The
company was out answering retreat and
as the bugle sounded ''off' the report
of rifle in the quarters indicated that
something was wrong. There were
two or three guards in the quarters
who had just come off their relief to
mess. They rushed to the bunk,
where the report was heard and found
McHenry lying in pool of blood on
his bunk with the right side of his
head blown off. He died in a few
minutes after the shot.
McHenry was a recruit who came
here on the Sheridan and had recent
ly been assigned to the company.
Since arriving here he has been quite
respondent and seemed to be suffer.
ing from homesickness. On Wednes-
day he spoke Of not feeling we'll and
had retired after dinner to sleep. He
cautioned some Of the boys to call
him for supper. When the boys went
out to answer roll call, he went delib-
erately to work to end his life. He
took off his shoes before lying down
and then applied the muzzle of the
krag to his right temple. 1t is not
known whether he pulled the trigger
with his toe or his hand, as the con-
cussion had thrown the gun down on
the floor beside the bunk.
During the day he wrote ten letters
addressed to friends at home and it is
thought he was meditating on his deed
for some time. Shortly before enlist
Ing his wife and baby died, and this
preyed upon his mind, as he felt their
loss keenly. He was twenty-five years
of age.
He was highly respected by his COM
rades and his tragic death has cast a
gloom over the Company"
