INDECORUM —Tf some of our young
chaps would see themselv s as others
see them they would do with less row
dvism when on their way from church.
Their behavior reminds one of a crowd
of half drunken roughs coming from
a grog shop. Th.'y awaken the still
echoes of the night bv their yelling and
loud, vulgar talk, instead of walking
along decently and quietly as one
should from the house of God. We
say show better sense and do away
with such bad manners.

is over four weeks now that he has
been confined to the room, during
which time nearly every part of his

the bill the crowd received the surpris
ing infotination that tlie supper was
Mr. Bhnf'i's farewell treat to bis

useful and respected men as Kilts get
the western fever and leave friends and
everything to increase their worldy
goods in the land of the setting sun.
Mr. Crawford, the hosiery man,

Sales are now all the rage.
Landlord Kleckner expects to run a
hotel in Berwick and leave Coburn.
Who will take bis place lias not been
decided yet.
And now a gentleman of color isinn
ning the back to the station for the Na
tional Hotel at J/illheim.
Jonathan Diuges has in his posses
sion an old lelic which he unearthed
while ploughing in a field. It is a
stone cut out in the shape of a cover
ing for some kind of an instrument
and no douht was in use when the In
dians had possession of this par t of the
country.
Since there is no license in Coburn
or our sister town J/illheim we sup

The Coburn correspondent of the
Centre Ilall Reporter refers to the bad
condition of our school house, which is
the case. The seats are not fit for a
scholar to sit in, they are low and cer
tainly tiresome, if t lie townships
around iis are able to have good school
furniture we are too. Those who are
opposed to good schools here are the
very ones w ho have no children to send
and who care very little if any other
children are educated or not. Their
education is veiy limited and they don't
care to have anyone better educated
than themselves. Our directors should
attend to this matter and if it is neglec
