utes later the woman was found lying

fided the information that she had

handsomest baton in the state of Penn
sylvania and it certainly is a beauty.

is three feet six inches long and gold
plated, both at the top and bottom
and beautifully engraved. Gold cord
in twisted profuslon encircles the
baton and adds brilliancy and luster
to it.
The baton was made especially for
the drum corps by Henderson Broth
ers, of Philadelphia, and they claim
it is one of the finest ever turned out
by them. Frederick f. Jones is the
man who Yields It and it will be swung

vention held at Lebanon, Aug. 2S.

much headway they were extinguished
by several small boys who were play
