The eighth annual banquet of the Alumni, was the occasion of quite an intellectual gathering at the High School building last evening. It presented a scene such as is only afforded where youth, wit and vivacity are the prominent features and where joy is undisturbed. A feeling of "it is good to be here" infested the entire assembly and all else but pleasure was forgotten in the general wave of sociality which permeated the recesses of the the sanctum where character is bred and blossomed.

The banquet board was spread in the large recitation room, the seats on one entire side having been removed. The decorations and arrangement of the spacious interior, was grand, and easily exceeded all efforts of past years. About nine thirty all were requested to take their places at the tables. Prof. L.

P. Sterner, presided as toastmaster. The menu, which was a fine one was prepared and served by F. M. Gilmore Throughout the serving of the edibles, the School Orchestra furnished delightful music.

The soothing strains drove care to the four winds and left in its stead a peaceful satisfactory feeling which seemed deep rooted in every participant. Alter all had done justice to the repast, leaving just sufficient intellectual digestive powers' to absorb all that was to follow, comfortable attitudes were assumed aud close at tention was paid to the treat of tradition and wholesome satire. The program follows: "We've been eating tonight on the old camp ground, Thinking of days fone by." Sterner, Torwtmn.Hter. Address of Welcome J. Guy Kleppy "To thine own lf be true, and keep Thy mind from sloth, thy heart from soil," Response Maurice Buck "And the class was delighted To think It vm Invited To sit up till the hour when the big folks went to bed." Music The Orchestra Our Mumnl Harry J.

Achcnbnch "I suppose If nil the members Who have II ved through the ages long Were collected and inncted They would make a wondrous throng." Our Public Schools Miss Mabel Moyer "Who but the children can express Half the delights of 'Noon Recess'." Music The Orchestra Athletics Josinh Johnson "And the muscles of his brawny arms Are strong its iron Imnds." Recitation Miss Kdith Keller Music The Orchestra The Lizard Claude K. Rittenbcnder "Who is he that dares to touch me. With grip so strong and bold? 'Tis the sailor, young and brave. At the conclusion, it was voted the most successful meeting the Association has ever held, and the memory of it will serve to keep up the history of the alumni in a perfect way. DEATH OF ELLIS BIDLEMAN, SR.

Ellis Bidleman, died oi appo-plexy on a street in Kalamazoo, Michigan, May 23, last, aged 73 years, 2 months and three days. Mr. Bidleman, was born in Bloomsburg, March 20, 1828, and lived here until he arrived at manhood. In 1855 he went to Michigan, but only stayed a few years, when he returned to his native town. He finally went back to Michigan, where he has resided continuously ever since.

The following account of his death is taken from the Schoolcraft Express. Ellis Bidleman left his home there Wednesday, May 22 apparently in the best of health, and going to Kalamazoo to remain a couple of days partly on business and to visit an old Perm sylvania friend residing in the city. He had spent Wednesday night with his friend, and was coming down town, about 8 o'clock Thursday morning and when on North Rose street, near Main, he was noticed to suddenly fall to the pavement, and was picked up by a policeman. Al though conscious, and realizing his condition he was at first unable to make known his identity, but fortunately H. E.

Cole, happened to be near and rendered assistance in caring for him, and he was taken to the Kalamazoo hospital and attended by Dr. Crane. Soon after being taken to the hospital he became unconscious and remained in that condition until death, which occurred Thursday evening shortly before eight o'clock." Deceased was married to Sarah C. Ale of Bloomsburg, December 7, 1873 this union being blessed with one daughter, Anna, who has been a teacher in the Menominee schools the past year Mrs. Bidleman departed this life in 1882.

Besides his daughter he leaves to mourn his loss a brother, Ramsey Bidleman, and a sister, Mrs. Dr. Chapin, residents of Schoolcraft. He was an upright citizen and respected by a large circle of friends and neighbors. The funeral was held from the residence of his brother east of this village Sunday afternoon May 26 at 2 o'clock F.ev.

A Wetherbee, tne Episcopal pastor, officiating. Interment was in Schoolcraft cemetery. MEMORIAL DAT AOOIbENT, For the first time in many years M. P. Lutz did not take part in the Memorial Day exercises.

He was to have been the chief marshal of the parade, and about a halt an hour previous to the time the procession was scheduled to start, had secured his horse, and was standing in front of his residence on Third street. He was conversing with a friend when the animal suddenly moved forward, ptecipitating him into the gutter. He landed on his right foot with such force that the bone above the ankle was broken in two places. He was carried into his home and Dr. Champ-hn summoned.

Mr. Lutz's age will, it is feared, in a case of this kind, prolong his confinement. inn Kind You Have Always Bought Guaranteed Q( YEARLY.
