The regular session of Rehekah Degree
Lodge meets to-morrow evening Dont fail
to be present, if you are a member.
WASHINGTON'S birth-day is a legal holiday.
Does the fact that it falls on Sunday this year
effect bank i aper?
JOHN BKMAN says it will soon he warm
weather, and thinks the gentleman who
found his glove had better return it. He
needs it now.
The Elmira Advertiser says: "The proper
way to make a sandwich is to chop up the
meat, and then when you take a bite you
don't have to take the whole institution at
once." We know that before.
Leah Lodge will celebrate their tenth anni
versary on Tuesday evening next, 24th inst.
An interesting programme is being arranged
for the occasion. The meeting will be pub
lic.
In commenting upon the fact that a post
office has recently been establish'd called
Pinafore, HARRY WARD says the name of
the Towanda often should have been changed
to that, and then we should have "Buttercup"
already in the office.
The Reporter resorted to a vast array of
figures yesterday to prove what is evident to
the most casual observer, viz: that it is t e
best and cheapest paper printed in the county,
but the comparison is a little unfortunate for
the REVIEW just at this time, its we have had
to curtail our reading matter for the past
week or so, but hope to he able to give our
usual amount again soon. The REVIEW can
appreciate excellence in other papers, and litis
never aspired to anything more than an oeeu
patiouof an uncultivated field—furnishingthe
people of Towanda and the county with local
news daily, and thus stimulating a taste for
such able and excellent papers as the Re
porter.
The Elmira Free i'ress recently printed a
very affecting story übout the discovery, by a
printer named HARRISON MERRILL, at
Adams. Jeficrso M - "My. N. Y., of his si.sier 4 *
long-lost baby hoy, who was kidnapped in
New York in 1873. The child was accident
ally found, in consequence of his close resem
blance to his mother, and was taken away
from a Dutch basket-maker, after much
parley, accompanied with great difficulty.
The sister's name is Mrs. OLIVER JEFFREYS,
and she lives in Rochester. MERRILL is fimi
Binghuintoii, and lias a mother and broi h T
living there now. He was formerly Waverlj
correspondent of tin; Republican.
All that's the matter with the story i> ilia.
HARRISON MERRILL ban no .-i-trr oam <1
Mrs. JEFFREYS; and she bad no baby boy;
the baby boy never got lost in New York;
and HARRISON never found it; and no child
was lost and found under the circumstances
described. In all other respect the story may
be vouched for as simon pure facts. — Ring

Personal.
Councilman HEELER and wife will visit
their daughter, Mrs. CLARK, at Chemung to
day.
Capt. W. H. CAUNOCIIAN is improving,
and will he out again in a few days.
Col. MEANS secured a verdict of $8,300
against the Lycoming Insurance Company to
day.
Mr. LEVI NOBLE, of Ulster, brought to
town this morning and sold to our entepris
ing market-man, RUNDELI, a inammonth
porker, weighing 429 pounds.
I). I). DKWITT, Cashier of the Tunkhan
nock National Bank, and one of the most
prominent men of Wyoming county, suffered
a stroke of paralysis this morning, and his
death is momentarily expected. He is an
uncle of Mr. I). SWARTS and cousin of I). C.
DKWITT, of this place.
11. W. NOBI.K, who has long been engaged
in business in this place, was elected com
mission of Wvsox twp., on Tuesday.
We learn that LARRY IIOLLORAN. the
shoemaker who took a dose of poison, by
mistake, the other night, is still in a critical
condition, and his friends think his recovery
doubtful.
The fact that JAMES MCCABE was elected
Councilman on Tuesday, will not prevent
him from paying particular attention to his
mercantile business, and bis enstomers will
find him just as affable and polite, now that
his ''extravagant administration" has been so
emphatically endorsed, us heretofore. He is
not one of the kind to be "pufl'ed up by a little
brief authority." He will make a faithful,
economical, public servant, and at the same
time will continue to serve his customers
with the best quality of goods consistent with
the quality.
Quite an enjoyable affair came off at the
house of J. SCOVELL, in South Towanda.on the
evening of the 9th. The friends and neigh
bors to the number of about twenty-five came
in unexepectedly to celebrate the tiSth birth
day of "Aunt HARRIETT," as she is familiarly
called. The table was bountifully spread
with all the luxuries the ladies know so well
liovv to prepare, and over it was a festoon of
evergreens, forming the figures "1*12," the
year of her birth. May she live to enjov
many such reunions is the wish of all.—Re
porter.
The following item copied from the Wil
liamsport Banner illustrates a trait of
character which will not surprise any of our
citizens who are well acquainted with Mr.
Fox, but such instances are very rare:
"Nearly four years ago Mr. 10. T. Fox, of
Towanda. took an active interest in efforts to
secure a manufacturing establishment in
Athens. His undertaking was encouraged by
a number of business men in that borough,
some advancing their subscriptions to further
the enterprise. Among the latter was Mr.
N. U. Harris. President of the AthensNalion
al Bank. The project, however, was not a
meeess, and Mr. Harris con-ideri d his SIOO
subscription among the unacounted for funds, |
crediting himself with so much enterprise,
satisfied that Mr. Fox had done his part, and
tfiat lie could softer his share of the expenses
in making so laudable an adventure. A short
time ago, however. Mr. Harris received a
check for $122.00 from Mr. Fox, covering the
principal and interest. Such a course is
ih serving of special mention in these degener
ate days."

Some days since the wife of FRANK
THOMAS, of Susquehanna County, left
her home after relieving her husband's
exchequer of S2OO in cash. About the same
time a neighbor named OI.MKSIK.AI> was
missing. The husband suspecting that all
was not right,commenced asearch. The parties
were traced to this place, where they were
stopping at the "Henry House." Officer
BURNS was informed of the situation of
affairs, and late last evening called at the
hotel and found that the parties had retired,
and both were occupying one room. They
were arrested and locked in jail for the bal
lance of the night. This morning "a mutual
friend" interposed, and arranged matters to
the satisfaction of the husband, who took his
erring spouse and departed for home.
