Latest U.S. Gov't Report HS&Etin Three thousand catalomirs for tht Normal School were printed last Sum mer, Dut the demand was so great for them that the supply was exhausted early in the fall. Another edition of twelve hundred has just been com- pieteu at tms ottice. We notice that there is quite a little port among foot ball nlavers since the row and the ruction " among ine more pacific lase-bailers began. And it is already remarked that the Normal team of Bloomsburg is very apt to nold its own in the general scramble of this now popular game. C. B. Chrisman is doing business at the old stand. While he still deals in fruits and vegetables, he is now driving quite a trade in oyster3 served as desired, lie krows a good article when he sets it, and by serving that kind to his patrons his business is trrow- ing nicely. tf. Because of scarcity of fuel, and trouble with the steam power the B. & S. train leaving here at 6:40 P. M. on Saturday reached Jamison City just in time to avoid bending the Sab bathat 1 a o clock in the night. The intent and purpose of the B. & S. is all right. We thought somebody would im mortalize himself in our day, and, sure enough, W. M. Demott, of Brook- ville, is the artist. He has just invent ed a patent ballot-box. If it will actu ally detect repeaters the man deserves a monument reaching so high that he can easily step from its pinnacle into heaven. Editors, as a rule, are kind-hearted and liberal. An exchange tells of a subscriber who died and left fourteen years' subscription unpaid. The edi tor of the paper appeared just as the undertaker was screwing down the coffin lid and put in a linen duster, a thermometer, a palm leaf fan, and a recipe for making ice. A new Evangelical (Dubsite) church, costing $5,000, is now under course of construction at Bethlehem, Pa. The cornerstone was laid by Bishop Haman on Sunday, the 25th inst. Thus it will be seen that this wing of that church are not yet bankrupt, nor entirely disheartened by their recent disposession of all their church ptoperty. A deer that was no doubt driven from the mountain by dogs was shot in the village of Register last week. In Vermont where the game protect ive laws actually protect deer are now reported as entirely too numerous to suit the farmers, as they easily jump all fences and feed upon their winttr grain. We clip the following from an ex change : A large audience witnessed the per formance of the Gormans at the Opera House last night, and were highly entertained by Gilhooly and his funny associates. The Gormans de serve success wherever they go ; no one, not even the chronic kickers, could complain of not receiving their money's worth. The Gormans will be the attraction at the Opem House next Tuesday. Geo. W.

Condolence- The following resolutions of condol ence upon the death of Philip Unangst, which occurred November i, 1804. were adopted by the Sunday School of bt. Matthew s Lutheran Church of Bloomsburg, Pa.: Whereas, Our Heavenly Father has seen fit in His wise providence to call from this earth to his Heavenly Home, Father Unangst, of whom nothing but what is kind and tender will be remembered, Whereas, He was a faithful mem ber of our Sunday School for almost a half century, and secretary of the School for thirty years ; therefore, be it Resolved, That in his death our School has lost an earnest, faithful, and much loved membor, whose pres ence was always an encouragement to us in our work.

Gertrude Brown, 1 A PBOPOSITIM. To the County Commissioner and to the Public Generally. "The Road Question" has agitated the public mind for some time, and many extreme views have been pub lished iii reference thereto. But the question of good roads is not of local significance alone. It is applicable to the universal, or general benefit. But there is a question of more im mediate importance than the road question, and that is the question of bridges, the material of which our bridges have formerly been built has disappeared and the old wooden structures are rotten and ready to crumble, and many not safe for public use ; the question arises, how shall we replace them ? Since the second growth of timber is both expensfve, undesirable, and unendurable, only temporary bridges can be constructed from it at enormous expense. Stone arch bridges are permanent bridges, but they cost a good deal of money. Benton township has built several within the past few years, but to re place all the old bridges with stone arches in rapid succession is beyond our financial ability. Hence the proposition here offered, is, that the county appropriate annually not less than three hundred ($300) dollars to each township in the county for the construction of permanent bridges with the proviso that the townships furnish an equal amount for the same purpose, viz : the construction of per manent bridges, until the whole coun ty is safely and permanently bridged. And those townships first accomplish ing the object in view, and all others succeeding, to use the annual county appropriation with a like township fund, over and above the necessary road repair taxes, to be used for the permanent improvement of public roads. All persons interested in the above questions, whether in harmony or in opposition to the views herein given, will confer a public favor by express ing them in the columns of the Col umbia county newspapers. Let the Bridge and Road Questions be Agita ted. John C. Wenner. Kantuok at the Opora House. Kentuck is a first class legitimate play well worthy to form an evening's entertainment at any theatre in the country. It will certainly rank with the best of American plays in plot and action, in language, situations, picturesqueness and individuality of characterization. The play is from the pen of J. J. McCloskey, and was suggested by facts presented to him by a well known society iaay 01 jlouis ville. The principal scenes are laid, in Fayette county and the drama is founded on a rivalry between two Ken tucky aristocratic families. At the Opera House, Friday, Nov. 30th. GENERAL NEWS.

" Why its because I know you win 00 it up ngnt, uoctor, and what's the use of my staying awake to criticise you ; and besides, your voice is so pleasing and soothing that I just can't help it.
