ITEMS — A fire broke out along the
railroad last week which destroyed a
considerable quantity of fencing on the
Elliott farm, and was making rapid
headway over the mountain when the
rain and snow of Friday and Saturday
checked it. Rev Kepler preached
in the Presbyterian church on Sunday
to many strange faces. The Lew
istown Hotel has been discontinued as
a tavern. It will in part be occupied
by Mr. Galbraith. The new Coun
cil met on Friday evening, and elected
C. Hoover clerk. The other appoint
ments will be made on Monday next.
