Mayor Hendrlck Affixes Ilia Signs tor to the Sewer Document. The resolution providing for the ex tension of the main sewer has been signed by Mayor (Hendrlck. The reso lution provides for the extension ac cording to the plans on file at the office of City Engineer Frlck. This res olution has caused a great deal of dis cussion and debate in the councils, and the extension had to be made, as : It Is at present a great nuisance, and the odor arising from it unhealthy and unpleasant. The Delaware and Hud- son want money for the right of way, and this stopped any work for the present. 'Mayor Hendrlck has seen Land Agent Weston, but what the re sult was he has not yet given out. But as he has signed the resolution It would seem that the Delaware nnd Hudson will be lenient In the affair and that no exhorbitant sum be asked. The matter may be put before the di rectors of the road, and the result Is looked forward to with great interest THE REPUBLICAN CLUB. New Officer Are Elected at the Meeting at AwmNv Hall.

Israel Dickinson W!in arrested on t" f.ilr grounds yesterday by Sheriff Knapp In resrwuise to a mersnga re ceived by the latter Buying that R person of his description had shot and mor.'nlly wounded William, Pweitxrr. of Noithmoreland township. The affair, ns rumored upon the ntivets r.r.d by the he.t Information obtainable, was as follows: Svvellzer Is a well-to-do man, who formerly lived In Kingston, but a few years since came up and bought a farm in 'Noi thmoreland township, thin county, where he has since resided. Thursday night he wns awakened by hearing someone prowling around out side tlie house, trylnar to get In. Me tired his shotgun and apparently woiiiuli'd the intruder, who returned the tire, mortally wounding Sweliser. The yount ninn lodged In jail answer the description given, and. It Is said, has a charge of shot In his less. There seem to be some strange things about the matter, however. People who at tended the fair yesterday from the vicinity of Sweltzei's farm knew noth ing of the alleged shooting. It also ap pears that young Dickinson has just been discharged from the Wilkes-Ham? hospital, where he underwent an opera tion that deprived him of one eye. Under the circumstance.. It seems un likely that he would engage In any such depredations us he is charged with. He will have a heurlng' as soon as witnesses can be simimored, when further developments may be expected.

Prizes were offered to the grangers making the best exhibits, nnd West Nicholson, Kelserville and Timk hannork competed. The prizes were nwarded to the grangers In 'the or der above named.
