DELAY IN BEGINNING
PAVING ON FIFTEENTH

Work on the Fifteenth street paving
is being delayed in beginning by the
presence of water in the ditch that
was dug for the 3O-inch drain. 1t now
seems likely that there will be some
delay also on account of the failure
of the steel for the tracks of the Tri-
City railway loop to arrive. The grad
ing will be n short job, requiring
probably not over week to complete,
and no brick can be laid till the rail

TBRRORIZBD THE

Nowadays the perpetrators Of almost
every crime enacted in this section
takes especial pride 10 doing or saying
something that smacks of the Clenden-
uen case. The outrageous and brutal
murder Of the operator. in his lonely

thing that other criminals, seeking ad-
ditiOnal terror, ape the methods pur-
sued by the Browns tower a9sassin.

by announcing that they were the
Clendennen murderers The story Of
their doings is told by the ShamokIn

-Four strangers with the stamp of
profe ssional criminals upon their gen
eral demeanor terrorized the residents
of Excelsior last evening between 6
and : O'Clock, and perChance their
boast that they were the Clendennen
murderers aud robbers was true. The
| four fellows, who were the most des-
perate seen in this vicinity in many
mouths, were lettering about Green
! back yesterday afternoon. They were
| fairly well dressed, aud were all at
tired alike, wearing black suits, black
| flannel shirts and slouch hats, which
they wore down over their face They
carried with them several satChels,
which they guarded with religious
| care and which are thought to contain
kit of burgl lar tools. It is the OPP
inion of many that these men know
something of the safe cracking at
PhOenixville Sunday night. They ar
rived in Excelsior and exposing threat
ening looking guns, proceeded TO make
the lives of the residents miserable
They called at a number of homes and
demanded supper and place to sleep.
They were given something to eat in
several places. but did not wait for
their beds. In order to emphasize
their remarks and strike terror to the
hearts of their victims they said We
are the Clendennen murderers and rob
bers, and unless our demands are com
piled with and silence maintained,
there will be several more such myst-
cries. The news of the desperate fell
lows actions spread through the viii
lage like wild fire. and in short time
all over the place could be heard peo-
pie mailing their windows and doors
a number of men armed themselves
to give battle, bat before they en-
countered the four desperadoes, they
had made good their escape.

REV. ARMSTRONG'S
DISCOURSE

The members OF Grove Presbyterian
church turned out en masse Sunday
morning to welcome their former past
or, the Rev. +. G. Armstrong of Will

with the Rev. Dr. Mccormack
Mr. Armstrong; sermon was one of
his characteristic discourses, original
in thought, phllosophic an ahounding
in beautiful lessons. which ne aptly
applied
The sermon, which was founded on
four passages of Scripture. traced the
ascent of the soul up the great stair
case leading from its unconverted
state to an Inheritance of the joy7 Of
the redeemed The ascent consists
of four stages marked in order by
Companion7hip, - % Fellowship, or

~ showed how one experience of the
soul leads to another and how as a
person forced to be alone Graves "a
I companion, so the soul on its journey
upward comes to find soIace IN the
companionship of God
Companionship by revealing a
similarity of experiences, tastes. &c.
leads to closer relation, that of Eel

Friendship.

stances to illustrate the closer relation

NATIONAL GUARD
CAMP AT ST. Louis

Next summers encampmont of the
entire division of the National Guard
of Pennsylvania Will, in all probability
be held at St Louis in connection with
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
Plans are now being considered by
the officers commanding the division
looking towards that end, and II will
certainly be pleasing news to the mem
bers of the Twelfth Regiment to know
that there is chance for them to
camp at st. Louis. and at the same
time have an opportunity of visiting
the great fair.
The National Guardsman, the Off
cial organ of the National Guard As
sociation OF the United States, in its
last issue stated that these arrange
ments were under way, and that in all
probability they would be eminently
successful The proposition is to have
the Pennsylvania division, comprising
as it does nearly 10. 600 men, and a
brigade or division of the regular army
camp there at the same time and 90
through a series of manoeuvers. These
manoeuvers would be on a larger scale
than any yet attempted by the combin
ed troops of the reserve and the reg
ular forces, and the chances are that
the camp would last for at least -four
teen days
Managers of the exposition have
communicated with Governor Penny
packer, Major General Charles Miller
and Brigadier General John A. Wiley,
i'm connection with the proposition
and have offered camp sites and spec
ial railroad rates and accommodation
inducements and that the State gov
ernmeut is taking an interest in the
matter Is borne on by the fact that
Col Dougherty, of the Ninth, on his
return from the manoeuvers at Fort
Riley, Kan, stopped off at St Louis
and looked over the ground proposed
10 be used as a camp site.
Col Dougherty. in speaking of this
land says that it is ideal for the pur-
pose and that there is plenty of room
to camp 10000 men there aud give
them parade grounds and place to
work out the problems of attack and
defense.
The National Guard of this State
will be the cynosure of thousands OF
people who Will attend the fair. Re
cruitug Will also have to stop some
what earlier this year than usual so
that the green men taken III the com
mand will have an opportunity Of be
coming familiar with the work before
they are taken 10 camp. In fact re
cruiting Will have to stop early Of its
own volition for the law allows sixty
men to a company and there will no
doubt be a rush among the young men
not now identified with the guard to
join before the command is taken TO
St. Louis.
At present all of the companies are
up to the minimum strength of fifty
men, so ii will be seen that there is
not much chance for outside men to
enlist unless they do il at once before
the vacancies existing at present are
filled.
