Buckingham, 1 Commlttci C. B. Hoiiiii One of the most provoking things to bam. ness men is to send out statements to those who owe them, and have no attention paid to the bills. The natural presumption Is that when n man sends you a dun he wants his' money, and the very best you can do is to answer it in some way even if you cannot pay at once. If not prepared to settle imme diately write nnd tell him when you can j at all events give him some satisfaction. To throw the statement aside and pay no atten tion to it.ls bad treatment to those who have given you credit, nnd they have a perfect right to suspect that you do not intend to pay until you have to. Our experience Is that about one out of tweiityfivc'rcply to our requests for settlement of account. Sleighing parties are now in order and Hloomsburg Is receiving a fair share of them. On Tuesday night of last week, two parties were at the Exchange Hotel and one on Fri day night nil of them from Danville. The snow was too deep on the roads for good sleighing, but the large number teams soon beat down the snow. 'With cold weather the sleighing ought to last for several weeks. The storm was general throughout the Eas. tern States. In New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine and Massachusetts the snow is from eighteen inches to two feet in deptli nnd the railroads are badly blocked. At Bear Creek, Luzerne county,the snow is thirty-two inches deep and lumbering is stopped for the present. The following properties were sold by Sheriff Eut at the Court House lasfMonday.

It Is well at this time to havo as much In formation on the question of vaccination as possible, Recent observations of the New York iViiune seem to be of value I "Most persons suppose that vaccination has 'taken' If only a sore appears where tlm virus has been deposlted,ulthough the truth is that the sore docs not necessarily prove a successful Inocfiilatlon. It requires n physician to tell from the character of the scab whether the vaccination has been a success, nnd as very few persons take the trouble to consult a medical man on this point, many, doubtless, couslde that they have obtained the protection of vac ulnntlon because the process has resulted In an itching ami Inflamed wound, when It has really been a failure.

An Inebriated man was a source of great annoyance to both the speaker and the au dience at Dougherty's lecture.

All persons to whom hotel or restaurant licenses are granted by the court, have fif teen days In which to take up such license, and unless lifted within that period It Is for feited. The general opinion seems to be that the right to sell up to the last of the fif teen days Is covered by the old license, but this Is not so. A license Is good for one year from the day It Is obtained, and no longer. Those to whom licenses were granted last Monday, therefore, have no right to sell liquor until they have taken out the new one. Miss May Bradley of Danville lias been visiting Miss Ada Hrowcr.

The dallies on Tuesday gave the following account of a remarkable surgical operation In Philadelphia t Dr. Richard J.

John uelaney came to tnc Institution fifteen months ngo with his face, neck and breast terribly lacerated by an ex. iloslon In a coal mine. I lie wounds neaied. nit the sufferer was dlsflcured. Perhaps the worst feature of his case was lilsluaulllty to close his eyes. The head, too, was drawn forward so that the chin rested below the collar-bone. Dr. Levis, by what is known as the plastic operation, succeeded in re storing the head to Its natural pobltiou, using liaiulagcs ami welgnts. two upper eyeims were formed from the skin of the man's little linger, which had been amputated, and last week a large piece of skin was taken from the arm and used In making lower eyelids.

Rain will fall on the 3d, 11th, 18th nnd 24th, The average temperature will bu lower than during the previous inoutl The winds will be very high from northwest, shifting suddenly to northeast, Tho following short rules may be of value to many If they will observe them. First, when the wind shifts from north to west and from north to cast, It will rain In less than 48 hours, no matter how cold It may be Second, when the wind shifts from west to south and from south to east, there will be n snow storm, and although It may be warm the temperature will suddenly fall.

For many years the queition of building a railroad up Fisliingcieek bus been much dis cussed, but no active and actual steps have ever been taken towards Its accomplishment. It Is hardly necessary to nrgue the point ! demonstrate that such un enterprise would be of great benefit to the whole county. In the upper end there are large forests of ex cellent timber that are almost locked out from civilization because of the dllllculty in get ting to market. The road would pass through the coal fields of Sullivan county.tlms giving the butumlunus coal which Is not only chenper but better for many purposes than the anthracite. To theinerchants,farm- rs, business men,everybody,this road would be a great convenience and advantage in a thousand ways. The proposition now up pears to be taking a definite shape, nnd if our people will only give the enterprise proper encouragement, a railroad up Fish ingcrcek will become a fixed fact. Wc are informed that dipt. II. J. Conner and Cyrus Mcllenry of Orange, have started out at the request of thoroughly reliable and responsi ble parties, to canvass that section of the county through which the road will pass,and secure releases for right of way, nnd to as certain what contributions will be made to the road in shape of ties &c. The success with which they meet will determine whether any further efforts will be made. It seems though the advantage to those through whose lands the road would pass Is sulllclent for any damages that might be sustained by loss of land. Railroad facilities cannot he obtained unless the people arc willing to make some concessions, for the road Is in- tended for the accommodation of the public a3 well as for the profit of the corporation. A County llrlilue. A petition numerously signed by citizens of Hloomsburg and Catnwlssa township was presented to the court on Monday last, asking for the appointment of viewers fora bridge to be erected across the Susquehanna river near tills town. The petition sets forth that such a bridge is necessary, and that the expense of building It would be too heavy for the two ownshlps named to bear. W hen the North & West Branch railway Is completed the ne cessity for this bridge will be greatly increas d. Without it tlie new railroad will be of little benefit to this side of the river. The I). L. & W. road can continue to cliargo Its outrageous rates for freight without fear ot competition, for the nearest point thatthe N. & W. B. can be reached Is at Catnwlssa. So far as expense Is concerned, the amount of bridge toll now paid by many of the farmers would more than pay the additional tax that It would be necessary to collect for the erec tion of the bridge. This project wll probably meet with more or less opposition from certain partlcs,biit there can be no doubt that all per- sons Interested In the increased prosperity of our county, will heartily endorse It. There hns been some talk of making u double bridge, one track for the railroad undone for wugons, but there are two difficulties in the way oi mis, one iieing mat mere Is no cer tainty that tho railroad company will build n bridge, nnd the other being that it would be very dangerous to drive horses over such bridge. What Is needed Is a free brldge.nnd It ought to be paid for by the county,bccaui.o it will benefit, directly or indirectly, every tax payer. Till) IH-IIIUII III till) Miy, A VISION KOI!

It is sometimes called the Winking Demon. This wonderful star Is now in good position for observation, being nearly overhead at nightfall. It Is the brightest of the little cluster called the Head of Medusa, which according to the old fahlo Perseus carries in his hand as he rushes to the res cue of Andromeda. For a little over two days nnd a half Algol shines ns a star of the second magnitude. Then its light begins to fade, and In about two hours and a third it sinks to the fourth magnitude, glimmering so feebly that a casual observer would be unable to distinguish it from the other faint stars in its neighborhood. Thus It remains for eighteen minutes, nnd then to brighten again, and, in the same time that It occupied in growing dim, attains Its former brilliancy From one minimum to another Is two days, twenty hours and nearly forty.nlno minutes, Algol gave Its last light 'Ihursday evening at about U.4!.

Job i c-m A large audience greeled Daniel Dougherty at the Opera House on Tuesday night, and ns highly entertained for two hours by his llscourso on "Orators and Oratorv." Mr. Dougherty is acknowledged to be one of iVmerlca's finest orators, and his lecture was by far the best of the course. It mav not be generally known that he had cancelled his engagement here, anil was only Induced to come by a personal visit of Mr. White to Philadelphia. The speaker said that the most favorable place for the exhibition of oratory is the pulpit. The clergy have all the advantages that are necessary to the oratorj there Is abundant time for prepara tion, there are no interruptions, the themes furnished by the Bible nrc the grandest topics for discussion, lie criticised the clerical rofesslon rather severely, but perhaps truthfully for not exercising the great oppor tunities offered them, and gave some umus. ing imitations of the mannerisms of certain reacliers. He also gave imitations of the style of speaking of some of the leading de alers In the English Parliament. In con clusion he said the days of oratory are pass. d. In olden times the people were swayed by the orator in the forum, but the press has taken the place of the orator, nnd millions now read the papers, where hundreds listen to speeches. fter paying a brillii'.nt tribute to the purity of the press, he said, that since journalism has reached so high n point, and exerts so great an influence for good among the nations, it Is not to be regretted that the days f oratory have passed.
