We have just received the catalogue
OF the literary Institute and State
Normal School at Bloomsbury, Pa i,
and have been greatly interested in its
contents We note that emphasis is
first laid on the preparation of young
people for the profession of teaching
(See pages s and 9. Also pages Is to
24 inClusive). a practice school Is
maintained in which those preparing
to teach, have daily experience under
the supervision of critic teachers in
all branches of the public school cur
riculum. At the same time, instruc-
tion in Academic Studies is given by
College and University trained speci-
alists, so that thorough scholarship as
we'll as rare skill in teaching is acquir-
ed.
Commercial Courses (pages Is and
28), Music Courses (pages II, 30, S0)
and courses preparing for the various
Colleges, including the Medical Col
lesCS aIo also halh1aiheu' NpaSos w.
"a, to 27). All this with the pupil
under the best school and moral in
fluences, makes the Bloomsbury school
the best fitting school to be found any
where. The catalogue is interesting
reading, giving as it does the means
and methods of an up-to-da school.
The marvel of it is, how much superior
advantages can be offered at such low
rates. Send for a catalogue. 1t is
worth having whether you expect to

Citizens Meeting
At RIVERSIDE

A citizens meeting was held in the
Borough OF Riverside Thursday night
TO consider the rival claims of the Dan
Vile and Bloomsbury Electric Rail
road Company aud the Danville and
Sunbury Street Railway Company,
both OF which desire to build their
lines on the streets OF that borough
The meeting was held i'll the first floor
of the public school building, which
was we'll filled with representative
citizens In the assemblage were w.
f. Pascoe, +. O. Angle, Esq, Calvin
E. Arner and others representing the
Danville and Bloomsbury line and O.
O. Yetter, W. A Heller, and G. p.
Hancock, officials of the Danville and
Sunbury Street Railway.
The meeting was called to order by
| W. w. Kimbel, president of the Bor
ough Council. DR.. A. T. Dewitt was
chosen Chairman and John Hinckley,
Esq. Secretary.
The object of the meeting being stat
ed remarks were invited, the chairman
explaining that the people Of River
side want trolley and the only point
on which there might hinge any ques-
tion was which of the two companies
applying might give the best service
and build it's line first.
@. @. Yetter spoke relating to the
road he represents. explaining that a
charter was obtained on July 14th and
giving al outline of the route, which
leads from the Hospital for the In
sane. down East Market street to Mill,
thence to the river bridge. through
South Danyille to the borough of Riv-
erside. through the Borough to De-
Witt Park, beyond which point it
will proceed to Sunbury. The right
of way through the township, he de-
clared, had been we'll taken care of
and that what was desired now was
that the right OF way be granted
through the Borough. His company

the line this fall and he stated that if
the right of way was granted now
the picks would go into the ground
before the middle of next week. " His
company had an ordinance prepared
and it was present at the meeting. He
was willing to rad it, he said, but
| nrnlA do hnA
the Danville and Bloomsbury Company
would submit It's ordinance at the same
time.
Councilman Kimbel approved Of
reading the ordinances. if both com
panies were prepared, as he said. by
that means, the citizens could hear
What each had to offer what streets were
desired, etc. this would afford plenty
of time for discussion so that Council
at its next meeting could take action
in conformity with public opinion.
Mr.. Pascoe speaking for the Danville
and Bloomsbury line explained, that
having the nature of the meeting in
mind he had not thought it necessary
to bring the ordinance along. He as
suIed the citizens. however, that the
ordinance would be fair in every re-
spect and would please everyone.
Under the circumstances neither or
dinance was read.
Charles Ohalfant, Esq, made an
eloquent address dwelling upon the
benefits of steam and trolley roads and
the part they played in the develop
ment of the North Branch Valley.
Other addresses followed tending to
reveal what each company had to show
in the way of good service, and what
its prospects are for building the line
at an early day.
The Council will take action at its
next meeting.

The Wall OF A DYING CALF.

That is what it reminded us OF, re
ferring now to the article concerning
us in last Saturdays Times. To use
he}writer,s own choice expression OF
a very recent date. it consisted large
#Iy of a diarrhoea OF words and con
stipation of ideas. Seriously, it looked
and sounded as coming from man
who feels that he is not appreciated
by his fellow sinners. owing 10 ms
exalted opinion OF himself, as he
should be- There was a tnge OF sad
ness about it, too, indicating that it
came from man of great and long
standing political ambition, but who
sees no prospects, near nor remote, OF
gratifying the same in Republican
West Virginia. 1t indicated further
more, that it came from man who
is conscious of the fact that his pres
tige is on the wane i'll his communltE-
that gentlemen whom he could have
called his friends in the not Very
distant past are showing no disposi-
ton at present to fraternize with him.
It bore strong evidence. also, OF com
ing from a calamity howler-a man
who desires above all things else a
panic, in business, and who has said
he sees it already here, He pretend
ed however, to be very much inter
ested in the. cty'S welfare, especially
in its industrial prosperity, and eN-
pressed the fear thai they may be
seriously impaired and perhaps ruin
