THE CONCERT.

! Nearly every seat was filled in
the Presbyterian church last Thurs.
day evening, at the concert given
for the benefit OF the church. lust
what it was that drew so large an
audience is hard to tell, for the pro.
gram contained the names of several
of Our most popular musical people.
There were Mrs. Sutliff, Mr.. and
Mrs. R. F. Colley, Signorinas
I Comba and PM, Mrs. Annie Miller
! Melick, Miss Elsie Hicks, the Male
Glee Club, for the musical numbers,
and reading by Miss Welsh. The
entire program was thoroughly en-.
Ioyable, and every number was EN-.
cored. Mrs. Mellick's appearance
was greeted with most hearty ap-
plause, amounting almost to an
ovation, showing that she still oc-
cuples a very warm spot in the
hearts of the people of her native
town. She sang beautifully, and i'll
that charmingly unaffected manner
which in the days of her girlhood
was one of her pleasing character
istics. 1t was a rich treat to hear
her again, and everybody apparent
ly wanted to let her know it, and
succeeded. We do not intend to
detract at all from the merits of any
OF the other participants. All did
excellently we'll, and each did his
or her full share towards making a
very attractive program a great sue
cess. Signorinas Comba and PM,
though new arrivals here, have al
ready established regulations as
vocalists of high order. Their
voices blended nicely in their duets,
and in their solos they showed that
they are the possessors of cultured
and cultivated voices Of unusual
range and sweetness. We would
like to refer to each individual par
ticipant, but lack of space forbids.
The proceeds were about forty dol
lars. After the concert, refresh
ments were served by the ladies to
those who took part, and a few
friends. 1t was a very pleasant
evening.

Sudden Death.

Church bells today are communicat-
ing another message of mortality.
Frequent as is the occurrence, these
sounds of melancholy import. have a
saddening influence. and men in the
daily activity of life are forced by an
unseen power to stop and listen to the
solemn tidings.
Urbanus Mcbride, who tenanted
the Geo w. Keiter farm near the
Aqueduct Mill, died suddenly from in
activity of the heart Tuesday after
noon. He was engaged preparing a
corn field for planting, when he was
suddenly afflicted, and without emit
ting any sound fell over and expired.
The deceased was forty nine years of
age, and leaves to survive him family
consisting of wife and three daught-
ers, Mrs. M. E. Hartman of Green
wood township, Mrs. Edward Ent of
Orangeville, and Edith who lives at
home. He was son of Thomas
Mcbride.
The funeral was held this morning
at ten o'clock. Rev. w. r. Whitney
conducted the services in the Light
Street M. E. church. Burial was made
in the cemetery near by.

NORMAL WINS.

Normal School defeated Franklin
and Marshall College at base ball on
Normal Field Saturday afternoon.
The game was not quite so interest
ing as the score would seem to indi-
cate. The Normal boys went into
the game with determination to win,
and by good batting secured a lead
which while not sufficient to win, kept
them ahead and made the fight an up
hill one tor their opponents. The last
four innings was anything but pleasing
to Normal admirers, missplays were
numerous, the whole team peared
to be off Its metal and it looked as
though the game would be lost. The
bevy OF Normal maidens who occupied
the seats on the grand stand, looked
on with lowered eyes and crlmsoned
cheeks, fearing that their favorites had
by their uncharacteristic work in the
sixth and eighth inning turned apparent
victory into certain defeat. But the
ninth opened with brighter prospects

ones. Aldinger hit one Of the black

self in attempting to gather it in,
meanwhile Hayes moved up to third
and Aldinger reached second in safety.
The next batter up was Newton, whose
hitting ability was unknown to the
twirler, as he put straight one at
him. Its course however was imped-
ed before 1t reached the center of the
plate, there was loud report, the
sphere went sailing through space, and
before it was returned Aldinger and
Hayes had sprnted home. There was
nothin' doin' in the visitors last half.
For detailed account consult the
score which is herewith appended.
In justice to Dave Williams it must
be said that he pitched an excellen,
game, and fully sustained his reputa-
ton as a wonder in that line.

tomb was about to enclose, was that
