Henry Bonig, ‘who at present holds spent last week at home with his parents. L. Mr. Ryland has now fully decided to reside in Grantsville for some time, as he has purchased the beautiful property owned by A Bonig, situated opposite the National house. For this handsome res- idence and almost three acres of ground lying back from the dwelling, we under- stand. he has paid but $1,600. One of James Dorsey's little boys, while playing on a bed. took a leap to the floor, and either fell or was pushed by one of the other children; at least he sustained an obligue fracture of the thigh bone. Dr. B. Lichty was called and reports the little chap doing well. David Lichty and wife spent Wednes- {day in town. We would like to see the spirit of keep- ing the pavement free from snow pre- dominating among our denizens. It seems our Bailiff has made up his mind to fully enforce the borough ordi- nances to all intents and purposes. We were informed that last Saturday Eman- nel Hershberger was arraigned before the Magistrate and fined for riding on our streets at a too rapid speed. Everybody knows that Mr. Hershberger is a law- abiding citizen. and to a person up a tree it seems that he was dealt with rather harshly; for almost anybody would ride at a gallop if he were caught out among the elements without an overcoat, and the atmosphere so frigid as to chase mer- cury clear down into the bulb. J. J. Keim passed through town. last Saturday, enroute for Salisbury. Hehas bid adien to Elkins for the winter, but expects to return next spring. Elkins must have agreed with him, for he looks as hale and hearty as a West Virginia hunter. On Monday evening the National house was crowded by a sleighing party from Salisbury, consisting of J. L.. Barchus, J. L. Beachy, Prof. Dickey, Nicholas Brand- ler. Prof. Streng, J. J. Keim, Misses Allie Smith, Ida Beachy, Mary Reese, Della Boyer, Leora Hay and Lilly Wagner.

Mr. Price says: “The Remedy can not be recommended too highly.” Let any one troubled with rheumatism, nenralgia or lame back give it a rial and they will be of the same opinion. 50 cent bottles for sale hy Copland, the druggist, Mey- ersdale, Pa.

The Rockwood Spoke Co. is hustling the spoke business. J. W. Porter, pro- prietor and manager, is a wide-awake and practical business man. The Rockwood Feed Co., as usual, is supplying its large and increasing pat- ronage with choice flour and feed. M. Foley and bride arrived here on Monday night. They are gnests at the Rockwood house. The Rockwood cigar factory. No. 367, established April 6th, 1892, is now putting out from 75,000 to 100.000 tobies per month. They employ ten experienced men and are in the market for as many more. The output per day is barely suf- ficent to meet orders, which are increas- ing daily. It is the youngest factory in this county, but invariably takes the lead. They manufacture seven different grades of tobies, all of which are largely recom- mended by their numerous patrons. Their prosperity is dune to the high quali- ty of tobacco used in the manufacture and to the efficiency of the employes. Smoke the Rockwood toby for a fine smoke. OCCASIONAL. Jan. 10th, 1893.

As long atime as David reigned, so long has the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway run trains westward from Chicago. The Rock Island is foremost in adopting any advantage calculated to improve speed and give that luxury, safety and comfort that popular patronage demands. Its equipment is thorough- ly complete with vestibu'ed trains, magnificent dining cars, sleepers and chair coaches, all the most elegant, and of recently improved paiterns. Faithful and capable management and polite, honest service from employes are important items. They are a double duty—to the Com- pany and to travelers—and it is sometimes a task difficult of accomplishment. Passengers on this line will find little cause for complaint on that ground. The importance of this Line can be better un- derstood if a short lesson in geography be now recited. What is the great Eastern termini of the Rock Island Route?—Chicago. What other sub-East- ern termini has it¥—Peoria. To what important points does it run trains to the Northwest ?—St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Water- town and Sioux Falls, Dakota. To what impor- tant Towa and Nebraska points?—Des Moines, Davenport, Iowa; Omaha and Lincoln, Nebras- ka. Does it touch other Missouri River points?— Yes; St. Joseph, Atchison, Leavenworth and Kansas City. Does it run trains to the Foothills of the Rocky Mountains?—Yes; to Denver, Colo- rado Springs and Pueblo, solid vestibuled from Chicago. Can important cities of Kansas be reached by the Rock Island Route?—Yes; its capital city, Tokepa, and a full hundred others in all directions in the State, and it is the only road running to and into the new lands opened for settlement in the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Reservation. It will thus be seen that a line tapping, as the Rock Island does, such a varied territory, has much in that regard to commend it to travelers, as all connections are sure on the Rock Island, and passengers can rely on a speedy journey, as over a bulk of the system through trains are run, and it has become, and rightly too, the popular Line. . A very popular train on the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway leaves Chicago, daily, at 10 p. m. It is called “Tne Bie FIvE,” is only one day out, and passengers arrive at Denver, Pueblo or Colorado Springs early the second morning. The Rock Island has become a popular Colo- rado Line, and the train above referred to is Ves- tibuled, and carries the Rock Island’s excellent Dining Car Service.
