A WORD TO THE COUNCIL.
Our sidewalks lire in n terrible
condition generally, and hove been
so for a month. It is almost neces
sary to wear gum bouts and use
stilts to keen dry fin't. With gravel
bo near and ho cheap, tliere is no ex
cuse for this state of things. There
are mud holes on our sidewalks
which have cxistinl for years, so
that whenever there is n slight
shower ladies can hardly pass over
or around them. We talk about
city people coming here, the lteauty
of the town and surroundings, our
pure air and water, our good roads,
fine fishing, the lieautiful glen and
other attractions. All these nature
furnishes. Now what do tho people
furnish ? Dusty or muddy Rtreets
and Bidewalks, encumbered and dis
figured with old wagons, railroad
ties, brush, firewood and in fact
about everything that people wish
to place on them for their conveni
ence. The general appearanco of
the villuge is dilapidated and slov
enly. During court week when a few
hours' work with shovel or snow
plow would have cleared our gut
ters ana enabled tne water to pass
off, not a hand was raised, and the
town was thoroughly advertised
throughout the county as pos
sessing an utterly incompetent
government. We are in sympathy
with any scheme which will add to
the beauty and attractiveness of Mil
ford, and induce people to come here
in large numbers. Wo need them,
they are the principal support of the
town and surrounding country, but
we think it idle for our borough fa
thers to indulge in talk of such large
matters as the purchase of property
until they evince a capacity to deal
with such crying needs as the im
provement of our streets and side
walks. Why should not trees l)e
planted on the public square, and it
made shady and attractive by the
addition of a few scat. It is a pub
lic park, and were it put and kept in
proier condition would be an attrac
tive spot. Tliere should also lie a
public watering trough there.
Come gentlemen wake up get the
cobwebs out of your eyes, do less idle
talk about what ought to be and let
us have what can and should be,and
let us have it now, a licautiful and
well kept town.
SANDYSTON MATTER.
Ho much has been written and
talked concerning the troubles in
that township that our readers have
probably concluded enough lias lieen
said, but a word may tend to some
what clear the atmosphere. We
have no desire to express any opin
ion as to the guilt or innocence of
any person, believing tlmt those in a
Ksition to know, and candidly
weigh tho facts can come to a satis
factory conclusion. The difficulty
arose apparently from jesting re
marks made by some person in re
gard to the conduct of Rev. C. W
JJomings. lli ete remarks lxing re
peated, grew in strength and parti
cularity, until at length Mr. Dom
ings thought it necessary to obtain
a refutation, which he sought at
the hands of a certain woman, who
made an affidavit exonerating him
from all blame. An open letter was
written by Rev, Alexander Craig,
dated July 6, 1895, who at the request-
of Mr. Demings had investi
gated the rumors, to the members of
tho congregations at Ilainosvillo and
Centrevillo, in which the rumors
were denounced as being without
any foundation, and without doubt
base fabrications, and malicious
UIk'Is. This letter was road in open
congregation before the churches
over which the Rev. C. W. Demings
had charge. There the matter
should have ended, and in fact it
was fast dying out, when on or about
Nov. 1 the person whom it was al
leged had first started the rumors,
licing a candidate for member of the
assembly, the letter above referred
to was obtained from the Rev. Clyde
W. Demings, the pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal Churches at
Centrevillo and Hainesville and
with his consent and that of the
writer, Rev. Alexander Craig, of
Newton, N. J., was placed before
the jioople of Sussex county " and
in all fairness they were asked, is a
man who would make a dastardly
and unprovoked attack upon a min
ister of the gospel a fit man to re
present them at Trenton."
This was throwing the church, the
jiastor and the congregations into
the arena of politics. Naturally
old sores were opened, and the old
bitterness revived, which finally el
iminated in an election for trustees
of the church, at which election
two sets were chosen. A civil pro
ceeding in court would have tested
the legality of the meeting and set
tled the rights of the contending
factions,and this course should have
been pursued. Instead both parties
attempted to hold possession of the
church edifice by force, and nrrests
followed.
If we understand tho law correct
ly, a person not a member of .the
church would have no legal stand
ing to contest the validity of this ele
ction, therefore in order to avoid an
issue it seemed proper to the minis
ter and his supporters to prefer
charges against the opposing trns
t(es and oust them from member
ship. Mr. Demings presided at the trial,
selected the jury, assumed tho role
of counsel in the examination of
witnesses, and production of evi
dence, and then when tho two trus
tees were declared guilty of the
charges in manner and form as they
were preferred, he performed the
mournful duty of declaring them
exielled from the church member
ship and their names erased from its
rolls. We intend no reflection on
the character of the jury and have
not alluded to the propriety of al
lowing the accused trustees time to
prepare their defence, or be repre
sented by counsel, or giving them
every fair means to defend them
selves from the charges, all of which
they in person requested.
They are formally expelled and
henco are precluded from testing the
legality of their election.
They are under bonds to appear
before a criminal court and answer
the charge of maliciously breaking
in the church and disturbing its
peace. These charges should be
pressed by the prosecutors and if
they are found guilty, after a trial
before a jury of their peers they
will be punished as they deserve.
The church cannot afford, no mat
ter what tho alleged character of
tho two offending trustees may be,
to resort to subtuf uge trickery or
sharp practices to gain its point.
The veriest villian in this country
is entitled to a full, fair and im-
imrtial trial before a tribunal com
posed of a judge whose mind is un
biased, and a candid and unprejud
iced jury.
We would like to see the Sandys
ton church " hew to the line let the
chips fall whore they may."
The Press last week advertised
for gentle Spring to come," and
she promptly appeared. Who will
say there is no virtue in a Press
ad."
"Will the supervisor or supervisors
who were out on the roads in gum
txxits ana overcoats, witn hoe or
shovel during tho recent heavy
rains, preventing washes on the
hills or other places and so saving
the taxpayers a large sum of money
please send in their names for pub
lication, so tliat the people of the
townships may make no mistake
in not re-elirtinsr them next year
The LaiiKford Record thinks that
Mr. Mutchlcr whose chief claim it
says is that he is the son of his
father, wants to control Northamp-
ton in the intercut of a friend and
wants to use Carbon to further his
aiiiw. It says if Carbon is true to
its county candidates, if it is true
to itself, if it wants to remuin
in gixxl fellowship with Pike and
Monroe, it will refuse to be a cat's
paw for Northampton lieutenants in
Carbon. It also asks why Pike
should not have two teams. Well,
can any Democrat answer tliat con
undrum ?
There appear to be a variety of
opinion as to the course pursued by
Judge Crnig in Cnilxm county Inst
week in refusing to hear the Lehigh
Coal & Navigation Company case,
because ho had received a letter in
timating that he might bo partial to
the company. The Philadelphia In
quirer comments favorably on his
action. Whiletho Lnnsford Record
says ho displayed a lack of back
bone by his course and says if he is
anxious to have the public believe
that ho is free from undue influence,
there is one course left ojien. He
should resign, and seek a vindica
tion at the hands of the voters.
THE LADIES' COLUMN,
Applb Punnma. Fill a butter
baking dish with sliced apples and
pour over the top a batter made of
one tnbloRioonfnl of butter, one
half cup of sugar, one egg, one half
cup of sweet milk, and one ctip of
flour, to which has boen sifted one
toaspoonful of baking powder.
Bake in a moderate oven till brown.
Serve with cream and sugar or liq
uid sauce.
. . .
Improving an Eua. To prepare
an uncooked egg so it shall be taste
ful and delicious, beat the yolk in a
glass with a teaspoonful of sugar
until very light, stir in a teaspoon
ful of sherry, port or brandy ; add to
this the white of the egg beaten to
a froth, and mix well. This should
fill the glass. If wine is not do-
sired, lemon juice may be used in
its place. This is a strengthening
and valuable preparation for an in
valid.
Cement for Glass. A cement for
mending broken glass or china is
made by dissolving half an ounce of
gum arabic in wineglassful of boil
ing water and adding enough plas
ter of paris to make a thick jxiste.
Apply it with a brash to the edges
of the broken pavts. Hold the pieces
carefully together until the cement
has hardened sufficiently for them
to adhere. If tho article to be
mended is several, do not attempt to
cement a- second irieco before the
first has thoroughly hardened.
To Sweeten Butter. If yon have
butter that is not entirely sweet, put
it in a porcelain dish with a little
salt and a tiny piece of soda, place
over the fire and bring to a boil.
Turn it into a stone jar and set it in
a cool place. Tho butter will be
found perfectly sweet and not too
salty for cooking. The impurities
will settle to the bottom of the jar,
Cover for Hot Water Bag. The
cover should be made of all-wool
flannel that has been washed, to
prevent shrinking. Cut it in the
shape of a bag at the bottom, allow
one inch for seams. The top is in
ordinary bag shape, with a piece of
ribbon stitched on tho outside of the
top edge as a facing for the draw
strings, which should be of silk
braid to correspond in color. A very
pretty bag is mode of white flannel
embroidered with the owner's mon
ogram in yellow silk. Yellow rib
bon is stitched to the top for a fac
ing, and the draw strings are of yol
low tape.
Try tying a piece of stale bread in
a white muslin cloth and dropping
it in your kettle with your boiling
cabbage. It will absorb all the of
fensive odor.
.
Delicious Almond Cakes. Take
the whites of six eggs, one pound of
pulverized sugar, an ounce of ground
cinnamon, a pound of almonds,
blanched and chopped fine, and the
grated rind of one lemon. Mix all
together until quite stiff ; moderate
ly thin, using as little flour as pos
sible ; cut in the shape of stars, and
bake in a very slow oven.'

Hints for tho Houshold.
Fruit is not a complete dietary in
itself, but it is excellent to accom
pany meat diet. The acid contained
in the fruits assists digestion, and it
is for this reason that apple sauce
should be served with roast pork or
goose, the fat of 'which is rendered
more assimilable by it.

Woodwork and floors are now

green. It harmonizes with draper
ies and coverings of almost any color.

According to a wholesale furni

A dream concerning the eye means
a lost of property.
Climbing a tree while dreaming
means you will attain to high politi
