Post Dispatch, St. Louis. Bloomsburg Opera House, Nov. 6. The hunting season began Monday. About a dozen of our sportsmen took advantage of it. It was a wonder some of them were not shot. The woods and fields were so filled with sportsmen that a stray ball could hard ly miss them. The most successful of the hunters returned with 17 quail, 1 woodcock and 1 rabbit . , 1 A gang of thieves entered Ash & Bro's mill at Briar Creek on Friday October 30th, and broke into two desks, ami a door with a self lock on it They went through the safe, which was not locked, and took all the papers out and distributed around on the floor and out side of the mill.

Five and one-halt miles from Rick etts and twelve miles from the new tannery at Bowman's creek, Albert Lewis & Co., are building a large splash dam to float the millions upon millions of logs down the creek. The Loyalsock Extension is completed to a point about one and one half miles beyond the splash dam, while the Harvey's Lake Branch extends up Bowman's creek seven miles this side of the tannery, leaving only three and one-half miles of road to connect. The distance from Ricketts to Har vey's Lake is fully twenty-five miles. From Harvey's Lake to Lopez is practi cally an unbroken forest, the amount of timber that has been cut being but a drop in the bucket to the amount still standing. For years to come this region is bound to be a veritable hive of industry, tanneries and saw mills al ready being in operation, wood work ing factories are sure to follow and in many places coal lies very near the surface.

PAYMENT OF INSURANCE BY THE ROYAL ARCANUM. In behalf of Bloomsburg Council, the treasurer C. S. Furman, accompa nied by the Acting Regent F. H. Jenk ins, and the Secretary G. E. Wilbnr, on Monday last delivered to Mrs. Thirma S. Peacock, widow of the late John F. Peacock, a draft for three thousand dollars the amount of Insurance held by the deceased in the above named order. Mr. Peacock was one of the Charter members of this Council, which was organized in Feb. 1886. In the nearly six years of membership he has paid as follows : Assessments - - - $104.88. Quarterly dues for 6 yrs. - 18.00 Medical Examination - - 2.50 Degree Fee ----- 5.00 Benefit Certificate - - - 1.00 or a total of - $131.38 making the cost per thousand $43.80, or only 17.30 per thousand each year. This is certainly a remarkable showing but is only one of more than 6,000 similar cases which have occurred since the Order was established fifteen years ago. There are now 1,385 active Councils with a total membership of nearly 124 000. Its success is due largely to the ex treme care exercised in all risks taken the death rate being less than 8 per thousand, and also to the careful, able, businesslike way the affairs of the Su preme Council have been conducted.

A MEAN ACT. Week ago last Saturday the Democ racy of lower Luzerne held a grand rally at Red Rock and in honor of the event raised a fine hickory pole. Dur ing the rattison campaign the Democ racy a year ago also raised a fine pole at Cam bra. Last Saturday night some cowardly villains bored down the pole at Red Rock, and on Sunday night the one at Cam I ra. These may seem trifling things to the villains, and prob ably to the public at large, but may it not be the beginning of the building of a nest to hatch out another brood of "Robinson troubles." It would seem that some people have profited by past experience. Per haps their unsatiable thirst for revenge has not yet been satisfied. Great labor has been expended on the preparation of the entertainment to be given in the Opera House next 1 uesday evening. Thouim it is com posed entirely of home talent, all the people who saw the first performance a couple of weeks ago, pronounced it very enjoyable affair. I he pro ceeds will be devoted to a worthy object in connection with the new Parish building of the Episcopal church and a liberal patronage is most res pectfully solicited. All the new church buildings are ornaments to the town, and a benefit to the general public irrespective of creed. Therefore the efforts of the ladies and their efficient aids should be crowned with success. Don't miss it this time, as this is the last appearance. Tickets 35 and 25 cents. Have your seats marked at Dentlers. PROMPT PAYMENT. THE FOLLOWING LETTER EXPLAINS ITSELF. To the New York Life Int. Co.

On Saturday night some miscreant or miscreants tore up about sixty five square feet of the new concrete pavement in front of the Court House, or at least mutilated it so badly that it had to be relaid. This was, no doubt done under cover of the fact that it was Hallowe'en, and probably the per petrators thought they were playing a huge joke, and that the public would laugh at it. Could they hear the uni versal condemnation that has been ex pressed of their contemptible act, they would not feel that they have done a very smart thing. A joke is one thing, but the malicious destruction of prop erty is quite another, and should the parties concerned in this outrage be discovered, they ought to receive the full penalty of the law. Young Men's Christian Association, St. Louis, Mo., May 2, i883. To the General Secretaries of the Y. M. C. A. Dear Brethren: I take great pleasure in warmly commending to you Prof, and Mrs. John R. Scott, the distinguished elocutionists of our city. For years they have resided here, and their appearance in public always in sures a full house, they being remarka ble exceptions to the rule, "A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country." They have recited for us again and again, with growing popularity ; and now, as they leave us for a while to travel, I feel that I am doing our As sociations a favor in thus highly com mending them. Yours very truly, Gno. T. Coxhead, Gen Sec'y. At the earnest request of many who saw the entertainment of "Jack, the Giant Killer," the ladies having the matter in charge have consented to repeat it. There will be some changes and additions, and ot course, the second presentation will be even better than the first though that is needless. Next Tuesday evening, November 10th, is the time, and the prices are 35 and 25 cents. Tickets can be procured at Dentlei's, and of special agents.

ElwelL of Towanda, have again been called up on to bow beneath the chastening rod of an inscrutable Providence. One year ago, last month, their only son, William, a noble youth of seventeen years, was taken from them by the hand of death, and now a telegram an nounces that their only daughter. Katherine, died last night, Thursday, after an illness of only one week. She was a lovely girl, popular with all her acquaintances, and her death at the early age of nineteen, just when life seemed brightest, is a crushing blow to her devoted parents, who are now left childless. A large circle of relatives and friends mingle their tears with the bereaved ones, and commend them to the mercy of the God in whom they trust, but whose ways are past finding out. Katherine was a crand-daughter of Judge and Mrs. William Elwell, and of Mr. and Mrs. William Neal She was an earnest member of the Episco pal church, and the funeral will be held in Christ church, Towanda, where she was baptised and confirmed. The ladies of the Lutheran church will send a large box of clothing and groceries to a Missionary in Nebraska, in a few days.
