THE VERY LATEST— StyIes in men's, chil

ing House as he has just opened an immense
stock of Fall ami Winter goods.
Mr. BENJAMIN WATTS residing just across
the Chemung liver near Waverly was the
loser of a horse and buggy on Wednesday
evening. He attended the clain bake at Che
mung. When he arrived there he hitched
the animal, which belonged to his mother,
Mrs. M. E. EIDENBERCER, to a post near
the clam bake and left. When lie came back
for his turnout it was gone. The beast was
a little brown mare weighing 900 pounds and
about thirteen hands high. The wagon was
a squrc box top buggy, painted black with a
gilt stripe about one inch from the top of the
box Mrs. EIDENMERGER has been very un
fortunate in the loss of horses, harnesses and
wagons this summer by theft, and railuoad
accidents. We understand another horse
was stolen from the clam bake in the same
manner.— Elmira Advertiser.
Brother VANGELDKK of the Lcßaysville
Advertiser has visited the poor house and
has this to say in regard to it:
As we drove lip to the front af the large
and cheerful looking buildings which had
been erected for the home of the poor, a feel
ing of gratitude came over us as we recalled
the great interest tak n in humanity here ex
hibited in money generously spoil t> provide
such an excellent home for those who cannot
care for themselves. More than this,it is pleas
nnt to know that our county is composed of
a class of people who by their votes have
made ample provision to care for their poor,
equal, if not quite as well as a majority of the
families who pay taxes to support it.
On entering the premises, we met our old
friends, Alden Iveyes and S. \\ . Moscrip, the
master workmen upon the buildings, also
Commissioner Daniel Bradford, who has giv
en the construction of the building his per
sonal supervision. After a night's rest and a
good breakfast in the morning we were shown
through the building by Commissioner Brad
ford. We found all the apartments well ar
ranged, neat and convenient for the purpose
designed. We found every room well venti
lated and supplied with water from a reser
voir in the building above. The main bu ld
ng is three stories high and is llxtto feet and
is well arranged and occupied by the over
seers. The north wing is 44x100, with a
wide hall running the whole length and scat-
cd. with sleeping rooms on either side. In
these rooms are single beds resting on iron
bedsteads. Bath rooms are also connected
and are frequently used by the inmates—hence
f lie cleanliness of I heir persons ami l lie rooms
thoy occupy. The east wmg is ftxST, and is
similarly arranged and occupied by the fe
males. 11l this department a day school is
kept lor the instruction of thoehildren. The
basement i> used in the different, dapartnients
as follows: kitchen, dining-room, milk, veg
etables. coal, storage, Ac. There i> also a
nnall drugstore connected withthe institution
for the benetit of the occupants. In the rear
of the main buildings is the one constructed
for the insane. It is neat, substantial y built
and well arranged, and is being t-nclo-cil by a
high substantial lence to prevent the escape
of the inmates.
The number of persons received up to last
Friday was niuetv-three. We are told that
many <f the inmates on entering the institu
tion arc compelled to do so on the baptist
plan by being thoroughly immersed, puritied
and supplied with a clean robe which proper
ly (its ihem for admission to their new homo.
Mr. If. M. Ferguson, the Overseer, is evi
dently the right, man in the right place. He
is kind to the imitates and prompt in earing
for the wants of each. More than this, every
mom in the building is carefully looked after
tnd kept neat ami clean,and the table fare is
good and wholesome, and everything hears
the appearance of a well regulated home for
the county poor.
The building of a large barn for the aecom-
ovulation of tlie farm products seems to be
quite necessary to complete the property in
ail its appointments. •When huilt the people
in our county can justly feel proud of this ''in
stitution," for we venture the assertion that
its equal, all things considered, can't be beat
in the State. Jt lias all the modern improve
ments, is substantially built, well lighted,and
lias a cheerful and pleasant appearance in ev
ery department. Much credit is due our Com
missioners who have had charge from the
beginning and who have exhibited such good
taste and judgment in the whole affair.—
Mr. Daniel Bradford the Western Commis
sioner, as a reward of merit, should certainly
be re-elected for another term, and we have
HO fears but that he will be, as his name is
prominently mentioned everywhere.
