LEBANON, April 2S, 1898. EDITOR DAILY have been informed that several friends of the Perseverance band have criticised the organization for its refusal to play for the general committee of the firemen's convention at the meeting of that body to be held in Lebanon next October. As a matter of simple justice to the band and to the citizens of Lebanon who have given us such generous support in pur efforts to maintain a musical organization creditable to the city, I desire to state the facts to the public. The Perseverance band in anticipation particularly of the firemen's convention bas lately made unusual efforts to maintain its already high standard of excellence; the membership of the band has been increased to thirty-seven men.seven of whom are strangers who have been induced to locate in Lebanon with their families for the sole pnrptse of playing with the band; new uniforms have been ordered for the entire organization and in everv way the band bas endeavored to qualify themselves to fill their engagements satisfactorily. The people of Lebanon have been kind enough to congratulate the band upon their marked improvement whenever they appeared in public.

Several members of the committee encouraged the beliefthat the band would be selected by the committee of the firemen's convention for duty during the entire period of its sessions. Acting nnder this belief and desiiing to help to make the convention a success even at a pecuniary sacrifice to themselves, the band refused seveial engagements that were offered to them by various companies. Tuesday evening at the meeting of the general committee our band was tnrned down in place of another organization numbering only fifteen men, although the amount asked was precisely the same in each case. The general committee, however, offered to engage the Perseverance band for Friday, the big dav of the convention. Under the circumstances, as it seema to be the desire of the general committee to conduct the convention on the cheapest possible basis, regardless of the credit of the city or the satisfaction of visiting firemen.and as the Hook and Ladder company had already offered the band $3 00 per man for thirty- five men, I refused to accept the offer of the general committee of $2 50 per man for thirtv men and am now completing arrangements with the Hook and Ladder company.

I trust that the many friends of the Perseverance band will look at this matter in its true light, and will see that we accepted the offer of the Hook and Ladder company only after it was apparent that our efforts to make the convention a success were not appreciated.

As announced in Wednesday's issue, CapL M. J. FitzGerald, TJ. S. commander, ordered the company to assemble in the armory promptly at 7 o'clock this morning.

Owing to the delay of the remaining companies of the Fourth regiment from Reading. Alientown, Hamburg and Pottsville, the members of Company remained in their armory until shortly before 9 o'clock, when they were brought to attention by Captain FitzGerald and Sergeant Roy Wynlngs called the roil.

The immense crowd in front of the armory anxiously awaited the appearance of the toldiers on the street an'd when the first member of the company came down the steps there was great rejoicing by the crowd. A genuine surprise was sprung on the soldier boys and the ciowd when the full Perse band, in charge of Prof Geo. F. Tyrrell, came marching from their quarters, on Eighth street, to the armory.

Soon after 9 o'clock the company appeared on Ninth street and in files of fours formed. The order: "Forward, March v.a.i given by Capt. FitzGerald, the veteran commander, who is held in high esteem bv his men, and hearted by the band the "march to the C. railroad station was begun amid the waving of handkerchiefs and resounding cheers. The faces of the young soldiers flashed at the enthusiastic greeting and the realization of actual war rrfade their blood tingle.

Fair faces from the crowd gazed upon the soldiers. Fond mothers, sisters, brothers and sweethearts, gave words cf encouragement to the boys in blue, and from the appearance of the men they left home filled with a spirit if true loyalty to ihe flag. When the procession marched to the station the band struck up "Rally Round tbeFlag" Throngh Georgia," which arouted the enthusiasm of the soldiers and the crowd, bringing to rememberance of manv veterans in the TWENTY YEARS AGO.

Wednesday evening at 0:15 o'clock Edmund K. Kimmel breathed his last, at the home of his son, Edmund 813 Miffl'm street, aged about 73 years. The cause of death was cancer of the stomach and be had been bedfast about eleven weeks. During the last four days all the children were at his bedside and ministered to him. His end came peacefully and he died happy, glad to go home.

He continued in the tailoring business in North Lebanon and became the leading SHOT AFTER BURGLARS. A Prominent Merchant nt Meek- Aroused Wednesday Nljjrhc. Shortly after midnizht Wednesday Jacob R.

Meek, a prominent merchant, residing in Meckville, Berks county, was aroused from sleep by the burglar alarm in his bed room which connects all parts of the house, the store and residence being in the same building. He immediately got up and with revolver in hand went down stairs. When reaching tbe sitting room, adjoining the store, he was surprised to find several burglars on the outside making an attempt to gain an entrance. Mr. Meek at once discharged five shots after the burglars, which the latter returned, one of the bullets lodging in the waoden door in the store room.

Then tbe burglars fled and when Mr. Meok went to tbe front door they had disappeared in the darkness. Several neiuhbors who heard the shots fired and who saw the men run away came to Mr. Meck's residence and assisted in maEing an examination. It was found that tufiiritnt wood work at the class door had been chipped off and had it not been for the timely discovery in less than five minutes an entrance wonld have been effected.

Sol. Bressler, the stage driver, wbo was in tbe city today said tdat Wednesday night the blacksmith shop, owned by Peter Dieffenbach, nfar Crosskill Mills, had been broken into and a number of tools stolen. It is the supposition that the thieves used those tools to break into the store, robbed several boxes, filled with shoes, which standing on the outside ot the store when the burglary was attempted, were not disturbed. Mr. Meck's store was years ago.

After being called to attention at the station, in single file, the march was begun to the siding, near Scull street, where a special train was in readiness to tiansport the soldiers to camp. The scene was again repeated when the band began playing "my Country 'Tis of Thee," "Star Spangled Banner" and "Yankee Doodle." Two large American and Cuban flags were conspicuous in the procession. The company was equipped in heavy marching order and when boarding the train another notable scene was witnessed. From every window two pairs of hands were extended to grasp those of friends crowding close to the cars. There were hurried farewells and wild rushes by the men wbo bed remained until the last minute to say good-bye to friende.

In the cars there was a rush for the rear nlatform which was s.ion crowded and such cries as "Good-Bye?" "We'll Be Back Soon?" "There is Nothing Like being a Sjldier!" and like expressions were heard from the boys of Co. H. The train consisted of three passenger coaches and 1 wo freight cars, two of the cars having been occupied by Co of Pinegrove, in command of Capt. Umbechauer. Major John P.

Earnest, of the Fourth regiment, was also in the party and brought up the rear of Co. when marching to the train. He is a jovial major and very popular with the boys. As the train steamed away from the C. yards Cuban and American flags were unlnrled and fluttered in the brisk breeze and the last the boys on the rear platform saw was a flood cf white handkerchiefs and flags.

A reporter tried to get the sentiment of the men on tha subject of enlisting in the regular service. The msjority of them expressed a desire to enlist under Uncle Sam, but said they would not enlist nn- der new officers. They said they were illing to go out in behalf of the Cuban cause, but were cot willing, after having been instructed, organized and drilled nnder the pretent officers to be seperated from them. The company's car was in charge of Quartermaster Chas. Gates and a tqnad of men.

The soldiers expressed a desire that their friends visit them while in camp. They are all in good health and will give a good report of themselves. They will occupy quarters to the west of thn grand stand on the parade ground, at Mt, Gretna, only a short distance south of he C. railroad. Oil account of being so near Lebanon Co.

SSfOW AND RAIN PLACE IT IN A MUDDY CONDITION. By This Evening All the Tents Will be Up and the Soldiers as Comfortable as Possible. The state guards are today experiencing some of the unpleasantness which they may expect in active service. Throughout the morning snow, rain and hailj principally rain, fell and the vast camp grounds were transformed into a veritable quagmire. As each command arrived the men were set to vrork pitching the tents and late this afternoon they finished their labors.

Commands of the Second brigade began arriving before daylight and continued coming up to noon. The Third brigade reached the camp about 10 o'clock with the exception of the Eighth regiment and tbe brigade band, which arrived at noon. The First brigade regiments began arriving at noon. All will have reached camp before 6 o'clock this evening, the time fixed by Gov. Hastings for the mobilization of the entire division.

The regiments arriving in the early morning succeeded in pitching their camps without any inconvenience, but those coming later were marched in the rain to the large pavilions in the paik. After stripping themselves of their arms and equipment they went to work to establish their respective The Third brigade began to arrive at daylight and little time was lost iin the camp. Gen. Gobin and his staff were escorted from this city by thfi local company and at once took possession of his headqna which are on the southern edge oi the parade cionndi near the park. The brigade caihp occupies the greater part of the big parade grounds and the second brigade occupies the high ground usually occupied by the Thirl brigade.

The First brigade camp is located on the holders of Lake Conewazo. The condition of the site occupied by the local company was anything but inviting when the boys arrived there. They, however, realized that it was not the worst patch on the big grounds and after stacking arms and removing their equipment quickly erected the large mess tent Under this shelter they placed the equipage and after lunch at noon fell to work with a will pitching the tenis. The board floors owned by the company insure them dry quarters. A dispatch from Harrisburg Is giving ereat satisfaction to the men.

Governor Hastings and Adjutant General Stewart returned to the capital last evening from their visit to Washington to Dleai the cause of the Pennsylvania National Guard. They are much pleased with the result of their work, although they are not yet ready to make It public. Their manner Indicates, though, that the war department will amend its call for Pennsylvania's quota of volunteers to meet the objections of the officers the guard. Secretary Alger's original order calls for ten regiments and four companies of heavy artillery and ignores the cavalrymen. The governor and adjutant general met Secretary Alger by appointment, and urged him to modify his order so that the guard might be mustered into the United States service intact.

From the war department they went to see Major General Miles, with whom they had a very satisfactory talk. The governor said that both Interviews were satisfactory, and that he was very happy over the outcome. He also said that he has asked for the appointment of Major General Snowden and Brigadier Generals Wiley. Schall and Gobin in the jlunteer service to the positions which they now- bold in the guard, and that he had no doubt it would be done.

Mrs. Elizabeth Arnold and Mre. Annie Daub, the surviving victims of Tuesday evening's awful tragedy are still alive. Mrs. Arnold is reported this morning to be somewhat stronger, but Mrs.

Daub is weaker and no hopes are entertained for her recovery. Death may come at any moment. Dr. John Walter remained all night with the wounded women and said this morning that both had rested somewhat during the night Mrs. Arnold, he nays, speaks continually of Daub, and was informed of his death.

She has made many inquiries aa to Annie's condition and was told that she was dangerously wounded. The doctors have found that the bullet which struck Mrs. Arnold first passed through the muscles of her left arm. Annie Daub's condition is moat pitiful. She is paralyzed from below the centre of the back.

She knows that she has little or no chance for recovery and appears to be resigned. She knows her father and husband are dead and frequently inquires about her baby, Hattie, and her "mother. Early this morning she suffered some pain for the first time but no anaesthetic was given her. Bath women have never at once lost consciousness. Jfuneral services over the body of jlmtban Arnold, the murdered man, will be held Saturday morning, in St.

Mary's Catholic church, where requiem high mass will he celebrated by-Rev. Father Adam Christ. Interment will be made in St. Mary's Catholic cemetery. As the fact? leading up to the terrible tragedy Tuesday evening become more fully known it becomes apparent that Daub had determined fur some time to make the Arnold family wretched and miserable to eke out spite for fancied grievances.

Finally malice and ill-will gained control of him, he fell a victim to the devices of Satan and committed crimps that have brought great sorrow to several homes and shocked the entire community. It seems that Daub was an excellent workman, a good farmer and had won the confidence of the Arnold family, who at one time treated him aa kindly aa though he were one of their own. When the subject of marriage wasbroachfd he demanded that Mr. Arnold give him one of the best fields in bis farm. It was an unreasonable request and was so explained to him.

The fact that Daub 'and the young girl belonged to different religions denominations may have caused some clashing at first, hut was satisfactorily dispos of and apart from the baptism of the child, as we stated Wednesday, was no longer a factor. the couple had married, Mr. ALSO IS.ONE WHO BUYS A DOES JIOT SET THE LATEST NEWS.

"When the proposition was made to him, he replied: "I'll give vou an answer some other But he said no more and rather manifested that he was not pleased with the offer. Then Mr. William, arranged to move on the farm, and aft.r all preparations bad been made Daub became bitter toward William Arnold. Subsequently Mr. Arnold oflered to assist Daub in getting a home, BO that he and his wife could go to housekeeping, and said: "I will provide the same outfit for Annie that I did for her sister, Mrs.

Seifert." Daub replied: "You don't need to buy anythlnz for her, as I do not intend to live with her, at any rate." Naturally the Arnold family were disturbed over the turn affairs had taken and when it seemed plain to them that Daub did not intend going to housekeeping with their daughter they determined to take her and the little babe with them when they moved to the city. Mr. Arnold informed Daub to that effect Then he made a demand for the baby, only several months old, but of course they wonld not bear to that. Danb now began to manifest such an ngly disposition that his wife became afraid of him, and her parents felt uneasy at times. He visited them three times after they moved to Maple street and each time in a rude, spiteful manner declared that now he insisted on getting bis wife and child, although be had not made any preparation for sheltering or providing them.

Not only when he visited the Arnold family but to neighbors and otheis he spoKe a revengeful way about them, declaring that he ed the old folks for several monthb" and wonld torment them more. On the evening of the murder when Danb visited the Arnold home and demanded his wife and cbi'd, the wife, it will be remembered, replied, when asked whether she wonld go with -him, that she would do so it her parents would permit her. It is understood now that she gave such an answer because she was afraid to say no to Daub, 89 much was she in fear Him. What followed has been told in these columns- Fear that their daughter would not be cared for and treated properly is the chief if not the only reason why Mr. Arnold objected to er leaving home and living with nim.

And the daughter, it seems, was of the same mind, and therefore, unwilling to leave home, at least until Daub had manifested a different disposition toward her and her family. Both ladies were reported to bo ttill living at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. Arnold continues to grow stronger, and although Mrs. Daub had two sinking spells this morning she recovered and her condition is nncbanged.
