Opened tho portals of Heaven, Descended the angel of Death; With upraised hand At Heaven's command Robbed this mortal being of breath. Point- d this Angel upwnrd Aud spake tho Lord's decree: Thy life work Is done, Thy laurels are won, Come thou to Heaven with me. And tho beating heart was silenced, And the soul from its casement fled, And he, who was dear To bis fellow men here, Was numbered among the dead. Fluttered his spirit skyward, Returned his spirit to God, And tho casement of clay Was hidden away To mould beneath the sod. Trickle our tears In unison With thy loved ones here below; For our hearts are rent And our heads nro bent To the yoke 'ncnth which all go. Farewell, thou true, noble spirit, Farewell, thou corruptible clay; In patience we wait Till at Heaven's bright gate Wo meet on tho Judgment day. In tho name of tho family of our depart- cd friend, David Lowenberg, the Hebrews of this town express their tbanks to me citizens of Blooinsbure for the great honor shown to our fellow Hebrew, David Low. enberg.

It 8. vnou ntxiousnnnu to ligiitstrekt nr rail. Wo took our first trip over tho BlooomB- burg nnd Sullivan Railroad ono morning this week, Hearing that tho road had been laid as far as tho Llghtstroet bridge, wo resolved to mako tho trip over tho road from Bloomsburg to Llghtstroet. Accord ingly, wo nroso nt an early hour In the morning, nto a hasty breakfast, and strolled down tho street In tho direction of tho railroad. Arriving there, wo found qulto a crowd gathered on Railroad street, between Main and Third, waiting for tho arrival of tho oarly morning tralu, which takes tho work men to tho terminus of tho rail-laying ev ery morning. After a short watt, tho whis tle of the engine was heard down tho rond, and In n few minutes the train drew up beforo us. It consisted of cngtno No. 233 of tho D. L. & W. It. R , and four cars, two platform cars nnd two car loads of rails. After tho workmen had clambered on bonrd and placed themselves in various places about the cars, and everything wns n readiness, tho whistle sounded, tho bell clanged, nnd we started for our first rldo by rati up the creek, Bcatcd upon a pllo of boards on one of the platform cars. Tho train passed rapidly and with very llttlo jolting or bumping, out Railroad street, round tho curve at tho Red Rock bridge, and rolled out Into vlow of Fish Ingcrcck, ns It lay sparkling in the morning sun. Along tho foot of tho rocks, which towered way above our heads, wc rodo on until wo approached IrondaU, when wo stopped to take on a load of railroad spikes and Hungarians. It took but n short tlmo to load these on, and In a fow mtnutes wo wero on our way again. Tho train passed through Irondalc, with Its many trees and beautiful shade, ran past tho furnace, where tho men stopped their work to gaze at tho train as It passed over the bridge, which crosses tho raco at tho furnace, and pursued Its way along the banks ot tho raco. Tho road runs from Irondale between tho raco nnd tho creek for a short distance until It makes a curvo and leaving the creek, continues along tho banks of tho race to tho Irondalc dam, where It crosses tho race, the bridge run nlng obliquely across. At this point thcro Is erected a shanty for tho laborers, and here another load of them was taken on There were now about one hundred people on tho train, as far as wc could judgo. After this load had found places for themselves on the curs, the train started on, tho road running along the baso ot tho hill for somo distance. As wo passed tho Melds, tho cattle, not used to seeing tho "iron horse" running near them, gazed minute, as if startled at the train, and ran off to the further end of tho field, with tcr- ror shown In every movement. In short tlmo wo came to a heavy grade run- nlog up to tho paper mill, and while on the grade wo entered a cut, probably twenty feet deep. From the cut wo emerged Into the open again, In full view of the paper mill, which was in operation then ran along the race leading to tho mill for n short distance Coming to a wheat field a short dlstanco below Llghtstrect it was found that tho farmer had put tho bars up at the gap In the fenco through which the railroad runs and they had to bo taken down to allow the train pass through- A few minutes after this incident wo came in sight of the little village of Llghtstrect and tho train came to a stop a short distance below the bridge. The train was unloaded of Its freight, and tho work of laying rails nnd lies wns begun. When we left, Iho rond had been laid to some distance nboyc the bridge, and the work was progressing rap idly. The rails will bo laid to Orangeville by the beginning of next week, If nothing happens to prevent it. Illicit Horn. The spring fovcr has mado another out break.
