X. G. of Hollidaysburg, under Captain Martin Bell, forty-hve men. Sheridan troop, of Tyrone, followed soon after, but went on west, being the farst mil itary organization from this part of the state to leave tor tne scene 01 tne trouoie. First section of fast line brought in part of the Filth regiment, Col.

Burehneld and staff and the Fifth regiment drum corps ioinins here. Three companies occupied this section. They were company of Huntingdon; company ot -Belletonte. and company of Levvistown. Company A comprised three officers and fifty-two men.

This company was ready to take the train yesterday atternoon at cIock. About 2.000 persons witnessed their departure. Company received its orders at 10.30 o'clock yesterday morning, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon forty-nine and three officers reported at the armory, and the eleven others were accounted for. The men had to be collected from a radius of fifteen miles, so the undertaking was no slight one. Company mustered a full company.

Col. Theodore Burchfield re ceived no orders to turn out the Fifth regi ment until 9.30 yesterday forenoon, and the company commanders had all to be notified after that. Company went with the other Fifth regiment companies. On the train were also Lieut. Col.

Amos Mullen, of Bellefonte; Lieut. Col. Curtin, chief commissary; Major Elder, of Lewistown, and other members of the statt. On a special train composed of a com- bined car and sleeper the governor's stall" preceded fast line from here. On board were Adjutant General Greenland, Quar termaster O.

At 4 o'clock yesterday morning the "silent steed" was being used for all it was worth, carrying the orders to the men. AN INTERESTING GAME. Altoona Had to Work to Beat Harrisburg Out. However slow may have been the Al-toona-Lebanon games last week at Juniata "park, the opening one of the Altoona-Har-risbtrg series yesterday afternoon was the reverse. Altoona did not slug the ball in the wagon-tongue way that last week made Carman's men weary in chasing horse hide in the outer field, but it had to use extreme caution, thankful to get a single occasionally.

In the first inning the home club scored an earned run by bunching its hits. It also tallied a long stroke in the second, and then the procession was over. -Seven goose eggs were administered to us in succession. Smith's delivery being one of those enigmas hard to solve. But if it was a puzzle so likewise was Hayes.

Drawby was the only one who could size him up. Five hits strung out through the game, eight innings barren of a run and an unearned run in the ninth is the story in brief of the visitors' work. The playing of both clubs was of that character which merited a larger attendance. The same clubs play to-day. The scoreof yesterday's contest follows: ALTOONA.

Harrisburg, July 11. Among the charters granted to-day was the following The Altoona and Philips burg connecting railroad company, with main office in Philadelphia; capital, The road will run from Janesville, Clearfield county, io i uiiipsourg, venire county, zu miles, connecting with the Beach Creek railroad and the Pennsylvania railroad. The president is Samuel P. Langdon, of Philadelphia. The road will tap the centre of the soft coal regions of the Broad Top and Cumberland regions at the south in connection with the Altoona, Clearfield and Northern and the Altoona Short Line.

For years there has been an endeavor to obtain through communications from Altoona to the Broad Top coal regions and it now seems that an effort, likely to result in success, is to be made. President Patterson of the Altoona, Clearfield and Northern railroad was not in the city last night and the truth or falsity of the concluding statement in the above telegram could not be ascertained. One thing, however, is certain the Altoona, Clearfield and Northern railroad before its name was changed from Altoona and Wopsononock railroad, obtained a charter to enter the city at Ninth street. Not only is this so but it is generally understood that a new line has already been surveyed which wonld make a new lin6 into or near Altoona at the heavy cut at xwenty-fourth street or the Three culverts. What is known as the Altoona Short line has already been surveyed and its objective point is to strike the centre if possible of the Broad Top and Cumberland coal regions.

Future developments will be awaited with interest. Death of Charles Brammell.
