Tho fox, which was caught at the hunt last week, was taken to a field on Mr. locum's farm near the Red Rock bridge and there set free. But a few minutes were given him to get out of thn way before the dogs wcro after him and after a long and exciting chaso ho was overtaken near Hellers' church, not far from Jcr8cytowu and life was quickly shaken out of him; Thomas Vannatta's hound, Sport, was tho first to catch up with him, and the others wero not far behind. The chase was said by those who took part In it to havo been the finest ono of tbo sea son. The Improvements at W. U. Gitmoro's have made bis saloon one ot the finest In this section of tho country. Tbo partition has been taken but between tho front and rear rooms, mp.king ono large, commodious room. The woodwork has been handsome ly repainted.

Gas jets with colored globes havo been distributed at different points so as to give a magnificent effect. A row of mirrors with handsome walnut frames extend acroes the wall opposlto tho bar. The whole effect Is brilliant and beautiful and Mr. Gilmnre Is to bo com mended for his taste and enterprise In tho remodeling of his establishment. An exchange says: If tho county roads are Impassable, It Is the duty of the super visors to put them In sbapc. The law of 1830 Is explicit on this point. Supervisors aro (authorized to clear roads ot all ob structions necessary to allow a resumption of traffic. Turnpikes aro uo moro exempt than common roads In this particular, and must also bo kept open, not in name only, but in actual fact. To dig a single road track through a long snowdrift Is not open ing the road. Vehicles can not pass In it, and it is not such a roadway as the law contemplates. Accidents resulting In pe cuniary loss or bodily Injury would un doubtedly carry damages with them If brought into the courts. It would be well, therefore, for all interested In opening blockaded roads to bear this In mind. Miss Annie Sloan, daughter of M. C. Sloan, was married to 0. C. Evans Eq of Berwick on Thursday morning at 11 o' clock at St. Paul's P. E. church, by Rev. W C. Levcrett.

Smith presided nt the organ, and discoursed some excel lent music preceding the arrival of the bridal party, and the well-known wedding march at the close of tho ceremony Messrs. W. Clark Sloan, Frank Wilson, Frank Purscl and William S Ilishtnn were the ushers. The bridu was the recipient ot many very handsome presents, showing the high esteem In which she Is held.

Without doubt the most valuable contrl button in Harper's Magazine for March, from the point of view ot the greatest number of people, is Charles Dudley Warner's open.

The death of El'lza M Kuho, which oc currcd on Wednesday evening, February IS, as announced last week, although a sudden shock to her many frionds In the community, was not altogether unexpected by tho members of the family. She was first stricken on January 23d, with what teemed neuralgia ot the head and spine. Boon after the family physician was called he pronounced her dUeaBu Inflammation of tho bowels, and said It would be many weeks before the would recover, as her nervous system teemed to bd generally af fected. From the time ot her prostration until she died, she bad no rest, except un der tho Influence of, opiate, and she was at no time wholly conscious. Her death was a sad one, as she not just on tho cvo of becoming a bride and her form was en. shrouded in part of the apparel '.hat was Intended for her wedding garments.

Tux Collector. Tho Act of 1885 pro rides for tho election of a tax collector. The Town of Blooms burg, being organized under a special law, does not come under the provision of this act so far as the collection of taxes Is con cerned. But the voters ot the town each year elect a tax collector whose duty It Is to collect the county, school and poor taxes. It has not been the custom thus far to place the duplicate of the town In the bands of the collector thus elected, but to give it to some one specially appointed by tbo council, but there seems to be no good reason for this. When the electors of the town select ono In whom they are willing to entrust the collection of part ot their taxes, why not give him tho whole ot the work? If all the duplicates were planed In bis hands, ono man could afford to givo bis entire tlmo to the business, but divided up as It Is the collector must necessarily havo some other pursuit or be cannot live. It Is not Always convenient to call a phys ician for every little ailment, and In many cuses It is not only inconvenient, but lm. possible to reach one promptly.
