i LAST EDITION. "CRAWL UNDER YOUR MOUTH." THE I AT EST ADDITION TO SLANtt OF THE DAY, THE It la Very Fanny, But Don't Use It Philadelphia Goes to Sleep Again The Air Gnu Again Two Statesmen Abroad. Block Bow are Spawning A Soaked Community. Of all the picturesque slang that heard by Gossip on the base ball grounds yesterday was the airiest. It was raining hard, and one of the Cuban Giants was protesting against the game continuing because of the rain.

Suddenly a big man with a bass voice shouted: "Oh, crawl under your mouth, and pull the mouth down over you." The laugh that went up put everybody iu a good humor. Again must we assert that Philadelphia is only a jnmping off place between Harris burg and New York. It is a hayseed village, with no snap nor go, and we have Chauncey Depew's word for it. At a banquet in Philadelphia last night Mr. Depew said: "It is a great pleasure for New Yorkers to come to Philadelphia.

It is a rest" The whole thing in a nut shell. Mr. Depew has a knack of putting things correctly without any rhetorical fire works. Pull up the covers, Philadelphia, and go to sleep. The air gun yesterday got in its work in Camden.

A careless boy, shooting at a mark, shot a man in the eye and destroyed his eyesight. If there is a more vicious toy than an air gun in the hands of a small boy it has yet to be found. It may be said here that the Harrisburg small boy, as careless as ever, is still about with his air gnn, and some day we shnll have an accident to chronicle with the olcfStory of "didn't think it was dangerous. Senator Delamatee and Chairman Andrews are in Philadelphia, and the frantic reporters are at their wits' ends to learn the object of their visit. For a conple of days at least their imaginations will have free rein, and then it will be discovered that the two statesmen are in Philadelphia for the purpose of patronizing John Wana maker's bargain counter.

Fishermen who were out yesterday catching black bass report that some of the fish caught were full of spawn. Such being the case the bass fishing season opens too early. It seems almost like a crime to catch fish that are not yet done spawning, but all the same they are caught and eaten. PABDON us for devoting a paragraph to the weather, but did you ever see so much rain in the month of May It has fallen in torrents, and one asks where does it all come from Jupiter Pluvius, let up 1 We are a soaked community. Your prohibition argument is a trifle too much of a good thing.

The Observance of Decoration Day Was General. Special Correspondence of the Telegraph.

Lykens, May 31. There seemed to be an increased personal interest shown this year in the observance of Memorial Day in Wiconisco and Lykens. The order of exercises, so well arranged, was carried out to the letter. The weather was very favorable. Flags and bnnting were displayed.

The arch, nicely and suitably arranged at the entrance of Church was prettily decorated. A pleasing incident here was the number of small girls dressed in white, with baskets filled with bouquets. Tney gave to each Grand Army man who was not already provided a nice bouquet of flowers. The second division or Lykens organizations met the Wiconisco parties a procession was formed and moved up to Pottsville street and out to the cemetery. After the beautiful and impressive ceremonies were gone through, Howard L.

Calder, of Harrisburg, delivered an eloquent oration, which was well received. A large number of people were present and all listened quietly and with attention. Those who did not hear Mr. Calder failed to hear a good speech. The organizations were not as full as they should have been, but were well represented, and all did well.

The Wesquenesque Tribe of Red Men were dressed with the war paint on like warlike Indians. They made a novel and striking appearance. Capt. John Mnrphy, of the Good Will hose company, of Wiconisco, kept his promise good. Their hose carriage was mounted with a miniature S.

B. locomotive on wheels, under a full head of steam crossing a bridge, with its builder and Engineer Samuel Wehy in charge. At about 12 o'clock the post returned to their quarters, where they were met by the Women's Relief Corps, who had taken charge of their hall for the day, and served them with a grand dinner. A detail from the post went down the valley and decorated the graves of soldiers in the cemeteries at and around Elizabethville. The memorial services held in the evening in the G.

A.R. hall by the Women's Relief Corps was attended by a large audience. The interesting programme was very effectively and appropriately rendered. The most beautiful part was given by forty three little girls dressed in white and who represented the various States. Each one carried flowers and a flag, and after repeating a stanza of poetry formed a very pretty pyramid in the center of the stage with flowers.

Addresses were delivered by Senator Thompson, Rev. Kroh, of the Lutheran church, and Rev. Evans, of the M. E. church.

Miss Annie Zerby recited "The Old Canteen;" Miss Carrie Fox sang "The Vacant Chair," and Misses Bueck and Alvord sang a pretty duet The choir furnished some very fine choruses during the evening and closed with "Marching Through Georgia."

THOUSANDS VISIT THE CEMETERIES. Impressive G. A. R. Service City Grays Decorate the Graves ot vaiien ioinrnuro.

Yesterday afternoon thousands of people visited the cemeteries, and those who remained too long were caught in the heavy shower that deluged the city about 5 clock. The beautiful Harrisburg cemetery was fairly carpeted with flowers and it was a place well worth visiting. There were many unique floral pieces placed on tne graves 01 fallen heroes and the G. A. R.

memorial services were profoundly impressive. The Governor's Troop dismounted at the entrance to the cemetery, and a detail was made for the purpose of firing the usual yolleys over the graves of soldiers. Captain Maloney, in command ot the iity Grays, and Lieutenant Hutchinson, in command of the City Grays' Cadets, performed like service, lor twenty one years the City Grays have visited the Harrisburg cemetery and participated in the observance of the Decoration Day ceremonies. They also perform a loving duty to their own fallen comrades who rest in that beautiful city of the dead. Floral designs are always pre pared and placed upon the graves of the departed members of the company, with military honors.

The company has also for five years decorated the grave of a former member of the State Fencibies, of Philadelphia, who rests on the monument covered bluff east of the city. His name was Gingrich, and the same tribute is paid him as is paid the others. There is a warm friendship existing between the State Fencibies and the City Grays, and this annual incident does much to bind still closer the bonds of fraternity. The appearance of the local military or ganizations yesterday was exceedingly cred itable and the veterans were pleased with the interest they manifested in the day. AN ELOQUENT ADDRESS.

Hon. Marriott Broslus, of Lancaster, at the Opera House Last NIghr. Memorial exercises, under the anspices of Post 58, Grand Army of the Republic, were held in the Opera House last night. Capt. J.

W. Meese was the presiding officer. There were literary and musical numbers, appropriate to the occasion, and a drill by the City brays Cadets. The youthful soldiers did themselves proud, their precision of move ment and perfection in the manual of arms arousing great enthusiasm in the audience. The bayonet exercise was very fine.

Hon. Marriott Brosius, of Lan caster, whose fame as an orator is wider than the State, delivered the address. It was a magnificent and was liberally punctuated by applause. Referring to the ancient warriors the eloquent speaker made a comparison with those of later times and then dwelt awhile upon the soldierly quali ties of that ideal warrior General Grant. The address throughout was polished and beutiful and riveted the attention of the large audience.

REV. DR. JOHN E. CO OHM AN Resigns His Pastorate In New York to Join the Episcopalians. Wednesnay night Rev.

Dr. Palmer, the presiding elder of the New York District of the Methodist Church, announced to the Twenty fourth Street Methodist church the resignation of their pastor, Rev. Dr. John Cookman, and his withdrawal from the Methodist Church altogether for the purpose of joining the Episcopalians. The announce ment was a complete surprise.

Dr. Cook man was appointed to the pastorate of the Twenty fourth Street church only a year 1 1.1 1 ugu mis Bpiiug, ouu nuuiu nave remained at its head for five years had he served his full term. He has been a Methodist clergyman for nearly a quarter of a century, and was one of the best known members of the New York conference. For two generations the home of Cookman has been a notable one in the annals of Methodism. The doctor's father, Alfred Cookman, who died a decade ago, was one of the leading Methodists of the country.

His father was a well known Methodist preacher and was at one time chaplain of the House of Representative. Alfred Cookman was for several years pastor of Grace Methodist congregation in this city when it worshipped on Locust street where the post office building stands. He was one of the most eloquent men that ever occupied a Harrisburg pulpit. Trinity College Alumni Outing. A Lebanon dispatch says the Perseverance Baud, of Lebanon, which has been engaged to furnish the music during tho "outino of the Trinity College alumni and undergraduates at Mt.

Gretna, is preparing some grand selections for the occasions. Full arrangements for pleasure trips have been made. Special trains will convey the visitors to Steelton, to the Pennsylvania steel works, to Ilarrisburg, to Lebanon and Cornwall. Princeton, University of Pennsylvania, Lafayette and Cornwall teams will contest games of base ball with the Trinity College boys. The only expense to the visitors will be for their meals, which may be had on the grounds at the dining hall.

IiVIII. NO. 131. ESTABLISHED 1881; A Lively Game Played In the Rain. The Cuban Giants lost a game to the Har risburgs yesterday in the presence of 3,000 spectators, and a more enjoyable game of ball was never witnessed here.

The crowd was very evenly divided in their admiration for the clubs, and every good play was applauded. Rain fell from the third inning, and in the sixth the playing ceased for a while. Up to that time neither side had scored a run and base hits were few. In the seventh inning with rain pouring Seldon lost command of the wet ball and sent four men to base on balls, two runs scoring. The Cubans could only get one man around the bases before the inning closed and lost the game.

It was a hard fought battle, and Providence was with the home team. The Harrisburg made four hits off Seldon and the Cubans batted Mickeljohn for but three bases. The score: Harrisburg 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 Cuban Giants 0 0 0 0 0 Two base hits Harrison. Sacrifice hits Rlnn, Gamble, Frye, Seldon. Bases stolen Pollard, cook, Harrison, Seldon.

A Little Kindly Caution. There is nothing that would please the Telegbaph more than to record unbroken triumphs of the Harrisburg club, but flattery is not the way to correct weaknesses. There is good material in the home team, and it has commended itself to the Harrisburg patrons of the game, but in all kindness the Telegbaph must utter a word of caution. It may assure the club's very existence later on. Captain Murphy, for instance, has not been doing quite well.

In fact, our first baseman has been doing quite bad lately. He plays without spirit and is entirely too leisurely in his movements when alacrity is demanded. Yesterday morning when that ball was knocked out to him the runner could have been prevented from reaching third by a little headwork and eetwork on the part of Captain Murphy. I is well, also, to cease making mouths at the umpire and win victories regardless of that much abused individual. Then, too, our lads fail to back up each other.

On this point they cap. learn something from their dusky adversaries, the Cuban Giants. We have no disposition to criticise a really excellent club, but Manager Farrington owes it to himself and to the club to discover the weak spots and to strengthen them. From the Grand Stand. Now for York.

She must bo pulled off the pinnacle. The Harrisburgs should plug up the holes in their bats. There wasn't any scare in the Ponies yesterday afternoon. Harrisburg has lost first place. Put crape on the grand stand.

The Cubans are always welcome. They can play ball and no mistake. A great deal of money was put on the Giants yesterday and lost. Vallee is a great all around player. His five catches yesterday were superb.

Vallee is a favorite. Buffington.of the no longer an idol. The Pittsburgs touched him for fourteen hits yesterday. Blame it on the umpire! Bosh. Ihe umpiring yesterday was equal in fairness to any ever seen on the grounds.

Manager Harrington should get a lew players who can hit a balloon and stop ground balls when thrown to them. The hsh horns that were to be used to raz zle the Ponies yesterday were strangely silent at the close of the seventh inning. The press box on the Harrisburg grounds was put up for the exclusive use of outsiders, and the reporters can sit on the ground or stand, just as they please. LIGHT THE FIRES. There will be a Decided Drop in the Tem perature To night.

This has been an "old fashioned" rain. So say the ancient weather sharps. They always speak of a downpour such as this as "old fashioned. it has been an incessant rain and a very heavy one for May. Two inches of rain fell this morning and it must be admitted that that is a pretty copious precipitation.

Up at the signal station Tele obapk reporter had a brief interview with Weather Observer Ridgway this afternoon. lie says the deluge is the result ot a combination of warm southwest winds coming in contact with the cold northeasters that have kept the mercury down so low during the past week. Mr. Ridgway thinks the rain will cease belore midnight, and that there will be a big drop in the temperature before to morrow It would be well for our citizens to poke up their fires and pre pare for the tumble in the mercury. A Piano Recltnl.

Next Monday evening Fraulein Emma Emery, an Austrian lady of great and rare musical ability and culture, will give a piano recital at the I. M. A. hall. The Ger man press speaks of this lady as a prodigy in music, and equal in childhood to the wonder ful boy, Josef Hoffman.

When only three years old she manifested her great musical nature. When live could play very diflicult compositions, and hen eight played before the crowned heads ox Austria, and received from them most enthusias tic attention. Jirauiein iMiiery was reared in a polished and scholarly atmos phere, is conversant with several European languages, has mingled with the most cultivated people ana was educated the best German music school, all which has added much to her remarkable natural tat ents. Her repertoire is simply marvelous, and if she has half the skill the press claims tor her she will give tbe lovers or music a rare treat. She comes to Ilarrisburg through the influence of a few who desire to give our students of music here opportunities of hear ing the best composers and performers.

Tickets of admission are 75 cents and maybe obtained at the seminary, No. 9 North Front street, or at the door. Some Vetoes by the Governor. This afternoon Governor Beaver vetoed several bills, as follows Making an appropriation for the Wills Eye Hospital, of Philadelphia; also appropriation for the erection and furnishing of hospitals at New Castle, Lawrence county, and in Beaver county also appropriation for Pittston Hospital Association act to prohibit deception in the manufacture, importation or sale of oil; appropriation for the relief of Mrs. E.

Smith as receiver. It is understood that Mr. Smith has agreed to allow the Cronin lawvers to go through the books of the bank and see what disposition was made of the money.

The police to day have been dragging the river at the Belmont avenue bridge, over which the wagon containing the bloody trnnk probably passed in its roundabout way from the Carlson cottage, in hope of finding Dr. Cronin clothes, which they think may have been thrown off there, as they cannot be found abont the cottage. This evening it was rumored that a spade and several ice tools had been found, evidently from Sullivan's ice house. While the police would not confirm it, there is reason to believe there is something in the story. Another Theory.

An old detective at the City Hall, who has been keening WKJ closely, was reviewing the evidence to day. Tl 1 iicouiu.

An Eastern Informer In View. Chicago, May 30. It was reported last night that negotiations were pending between the State's attorney and a well known Chicago lawyer on behalf of a man not yet arrested, but guilty of complicity in the murder, in which he proposes to surrender himself to the authorities and tell the whole story and bring all concerned to justice. The proposition was not rejected, but, as reported, was taken under consideration, and a conference between Judge Longenecker and Chief Hibbard was held in regard to it.

Their decision, if they reached any, was not made known. It was hinted that the man who is willing to turn informer in order to save his own neck resides in an Eastern city, and that he has been induced to make the effort from a fear that the work undertaken by Luke Dillon, whereby the Clan na Gael organization is to reveal the plot, will prove successful. BLAINE WILL NOT RESIGN. He Took His Present Place to Continue the Work He Began In 1881. Washington, May 30.

Secretary Blaine said to a friend to day: "I see that the newspapers are resigning me again. I can stand it if they can. They do not seem to know that I took my present place to continue the work I began in 1881, and that I shall not resign till I have at least accomplished some of it. I expect, of course, to remain here throughout this administration. Wouldn't Have the Hun.

Reading, May 30. The puddle helpers in tho mill of the Pottstown iron company, at Pottstown, struck late late last night because a Hungarian was placed at one of the furnaces to help. The helpers being very much opposed to teaching foreigners the trade of puddling, organized and informed the bosses that unless he be taken away they would quit work. The bosses were given one hour to decide whot they would do. At the end of that time the helpers left the mill.

There were fifteen furnaces in the mill. In consequence of the strike the night turn is idle, and only half of the furnaces are working onthe day turn. A Sight In Mexico. Mrs. Narcissa White Kinney, who has been traveling in Mexico, encountered there a sight that recalled the dark ages "a woman with a burden of eighty pounds strapped on her back, being driven with three donkeys, also heavily burdened, along the dusty street.

A Voice from Georgia. Philadelphia Presbyterian. As a native Pennsylvanian I feel very mush interested in the approaching election in said State to decide whether or not a clause shall be added to its constitution prohibiting the sale of liquor. I desire to present some facts that will prove to the voters why they should cast their ballot for the amendment The county in which I live (Polk) was among the hrst counties in the State of Georgia to pass the "Local Option" law, and for over eight years we have been freed from bar rooms and the baneful results of the liquor traffic, and there are men living in Cedartown, the county seat, and in the conn try, who were fast drifting to before the passage of the law, are now classed amongst onr best and purest citizens. Before the law went into effect our county jail was full of inmates, now it has scarcely an occupant, iben it took one week to get through the criminal docket of our court, now two days are only required.

All of which favorable conditions we claim have been brought abont by the adoption of the liquor law. I could go on and give further proofs of the beneficial effects in this and adjoining counties, but ail have a similar record. The conflict was a bitter one, but we had God and the right on our side and the victory was ours. There are now but few counties iu the State of Georgia that have not passed the local option law. Sooner or later all will be enrolled under the banner of prohibition.

Citizens of Pennsylvania, fathers and church members, we beg you to consider well this matter before casting your ballot on the loth of June against the amendment. The question for you to decide is whether you will vote to continue to make the sale of liquor respectable, whether you will vote to continue to place the intoxicating cup before your sons and your neighbors, whether you will vote to continue to fill your jails and penitentiaries with criminals and your alms nouses witn paupers ur will you rise above party prejudices and the lower ele ments of nature and cast your ballot to blot from your statutes the legal right to sell the accursed stuff. Will you With kind wishes tor the Jrresbytenan, I am yours truly, M. V. B.

Ace. Insurance Aguinst Low of Work. London Spectator. 1 have only just seen your article of April 27 th on Mr. Morley's speech, in which you suggest that what workmen need is insurance against the times when they are unemployed.

A few months ago, I was conversing with an artisan at work in my house, and asked him whether he thought men could save, when they were in work, against the time when they were out of work. He replied that, judging from his own experience, they could not, but that he belonged to a society that insured against loss of time. He paid so much a week, and had a right to ten times the amount when out of work. He added that he had never been out of work. If work was offered to any of the members at rednced wages, the society decided whether they should accept them or come upon its funds.

There was no question of "striking," only of being unemployed, as numbers of inferior workmen and even good ones are in the win ter. I do not know if such societies are common among workmen. Muldoon and Sullivan Wrestle. About 1,500 of the 20,000 people at Gloucester, N. yesterday found their way into the base tmil grounds at that place in the afternoon, to witness a wrestling coutest between the great pugilist, John L.

Sullivan, and the champion wrestler, William Mul doon. Both men were in apparently splendid condition, Sullivan being much the heavier man. Their appearance was greeted with applause, and both men at once got to work. Sullivan won the first fall and Mul doou the second, after a greatly prolonged struggle. The third effort was short, sharp and decisive, Muldoon raising Sullivan bteast high and dropping him flat on his back, greatly to the discomfiture of the pugilist.

The match ended in a victory for Muldoon. Knights of the Golden Eagle. The closing session of the Supreme Castle, Knights of the Golden Eagle, was held in Boston, yesterday.
