The base ball game between the llillsgrove and Dushore teams that was played on the Forksville Fair grounds Wednesday reruited in another victory for the llillsgrove boys by the score of nine to three. The engagement of Miss Mary Keating to John Harrington, both of Dushore, has been announced. The wedding will take place in the near future. Regular Services at the M.

This will be the last game of the season, the game to be called at 2:1)0 P. M. Every one invited. A youngster and his mother were returning home from church last Sunday and in a conversation with a friend the lady found fault with the sermon.

A very pretty wedding took place at Sonestown, Wednesday, Sept. 27, when Miss Iteba I less, eldest daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Hess became the bride of Mr. William King of Ilughesville.

The young couple start out in life with the best wishes and congratulations of a legion of friends. If an editor makes a mistake he has to apologize for it, but if a doc to. makes a mistake he buries it. [if the editor makes one there is a ! law suit, swearing and the smell of sulphur, but if the doctor makes one there is a funeral, cut flowers and a | smell of varnish. A doctor can use I a word a mile long without knowing what it means, but if the editor uses ;it he ha-, to spell it. If the doctor ' goes to see another man's wife he charges for the visit, but if the editor goes to see another man's wife, he I gets a charge of buckshot. Fx. At the residence of Washington Sheets near Sonestown, Wednesday October 4, occitred a pretty liotn.? wedding, at high noon when their daughter, Cecil became the bride of Floyd C. Dunham of Eagles Mere, Fa. The Rev. S. B. Uidlack read th° pretty ceremony of the Metho dist Episcopal Ritual. After the marriage an excellent dinner wa servc 1 to the families of the con tracting parties. An exchange tells us (it an editor who started about fifteen years :ig<i with fifteen cents ami is now worth SIOO,OOO. His turnm libit ion of wealth is owing to his frugality, strict at tention to business and to the fact that an uncle died and left him Boyd P. Bennett, Republican Canidate for County Commissioner is out (-halving hands with his ma ny friends. Mr. Bennett is a good experienced business nan. having conducted a lumbering business successfully for many years and consequently meets all the require ments of a successful County Com missioner, which he will easily demonstrate if elected, lie can be relied upon to attend to attend to oflicial duties faithfully. This fact alone is sufficient- reason why the voters of Sullivan County should support hi in for the office he is so eminently qualified to fill. In view of the fact that Mr. Strchy is now a candidate for a responsible office we deem it proper to ask him two or three questions relative to Ids conduct in the year of the election when .Judge Sit/.cr and Dunham were opposing candidates. First. Did you testify when ex amined as a witness iu the judicial contest that you received a consider able sum of money prior to the elcc - lion from the Democratic candidates for Representative and President .1 udfje? Second. Did you then testify that you received fifty dollars from I>. Worth Jennings the Republican candidate for Representative? . Third. Did you goto the polls and vote that year? We hope Mr. Streby will not consider these questions irrelevant but answer them candidly. The people of this county have a right to know the facts. Executrix Notice.

They indicate the usual "off year" plurality for J. Lee Plummer, or more. There is no good reason why this should not be so Mr. Plummer is a man of high character, who has the heartiest support of all Republicans in Blair county, where he resides. He is well qualified for the position to which he aspires. His opponent. Mayor Berry of Chester, Is not so well equipped for the place. He is a self-seeking pol itician, a place hunter, a chronic can didate for office who Is willing to be nominee of any party that has a chance of success —Prohibitionist, Free Silver- Ite, by turns —Mr. Berry is anything for office and not much In one. A XuiHiiiioe Id Be Alialert. ff this Santo Domingo receivership should finally result in the annexation of the island it is likely that such a result would be entirely satisfactory fo a great part of the people. Santo Domingo is an island of enormous nat ural resources. The soil is of mar velous fertility; the mines and virgin forests are of vast wealth: besides, the continual disorder and turmoil so near our borders is a nuisance which may well be abated.---Baltimore Sua.
