RELIGIOUS INFORMATION.
The parties in charge were quite
successful in maintaining as a fam
ily secret the fact that a county 8.8
convention was to bo hold in Mil
ford this week, and it seems to have
leaked out only through inadven
tence, or the children, only a short
time previously. People wonder,
sometimes, why other, or worldly
enterprises, are well attended
and pay, while religious ser
vices are so poorly attended and the
caBh receipts are so small. The
worldly wise individual pays his
good hard dollars for printers ink
and plenty of it, while the religious
bodies, who get their advertising
free, and in most cases it is cheer
fully given, apparently try to keep
intelligence of their services out ol
the papers, and if a reporter at
tempts to worm out the secret, he
is met with the ineagerest informa
tion. Gentlemen of the pulpit, Sat
an can stand this thing about as long
and probably as you can, and he is
reasonably content, while you grnm
blo at the indifference of the com
munity, and that your efforts do not
meet with enthusiastic reception.
The paper would announce to hun
dreds the topics of your sermons or
the fact that yonr church is offering
special attractions to sinners, while
your announcement is made, in most
cases, to a few women who, you
complain, do not carry the pookot
book, however flash they may be of
enthusiasm or religous fevor. A
large majority of the average
community may be quite certainly
counted on to leave you severely
alone, if you make only the usual,
or perfunctory efforts to interest
them in your church . The Prkss
columns are open for religions in
formation to the public.
LARGE LAND OWNER.
A newspaper report is current
that a Scrauton gentleman named
Kennedy has bought a large tract of
land in this Ounty, some twelve
thousand acres, on which there are
twenty six lakes or ponds. This
land is described as having former.
ly belonged to the "Shakers," and
a great watershed. The yarn is a
fine one, and finely spun. There
are probably no more then twenty
six ponds in the whole county and
. if there are morethan three ponds on
the 3931 acres assessed to the Shak
es in Pike no one here ever knew
it. The Blooming Grove Park As
sociation probably owns more ponds
than any other owner and it has on
. ly eight. Why will some of our
brethern persist in lying to the City
newspapers?
lEWARt I
This verb has many cautionary
usages and is in frequent demand to
warn the unwary. Some few ot
which may be iucidan tally noted. To
a class of youth the song says "be
ware young man, she's fooling yon,"
to the one with more money than
discretion, "beware of pick-pock-ets,"
to those with tempting calves,
"beware the dog." The elder
Wellttr impressed on Sainmys mind
that be was to "beware of the vid-
' dors" and perhaps this might
be peculiarly appropriate here too.
A similar caution to beware is ex
tended against fool bicycle riders,
and a temperttnoe orator shouts ont
the warning beware, against the
ruddy wine or the refreshing 'beer,
' and the preacher says with tremu
Irous fevor beware of Satan and his
wiles. Many Episcopalians pointad
ly expressed an opinion' to Bishop
Potter that he beware ot Dr.Briggs,
but it has remained for Milford,
which la usually more progressive
than any other part of the United
States, to strictly localize this red
flag word into "beware of the Prea
byterjMpe."
CHICKENS ON BROAD STREET.
There lire a few people nlong
Bnidd street who pride themselves
In lmviiift their front yimls deco
rnted with flowers of various kinds
and which are very attractive and
noticeable at this time of year
But, what Is most discouraging and
trying to these people is having to
be run over by an adjoining neigh
bor's chickuns, scratching the flow
ers np and damaging the looks of
the beds in general. This chicken
nuisance should lie stopped by the
village authorities immediately.
A numberof school boards in Mont
gomery connty hive conc'ndert to
test the validity of the veto of the
school appropriation by Governor
Stone. The Grangers are condemn
ing his action and he may hear from
other sources opinions as to his con
clusion. The question naturally aris
en will the State be in any better
financial condition in the future, or
any better able to reinstate the full
amount of the five million appro
priation, if present methods are
continued.

OBITUARY.
MRS. AMANDA QUICK.
After an illness ot pneumonia, of
some weeks duration Mrs. Quick do
parted tins life Thursday evening
Jnne 8th at the home of her son on
Centre Square. She was born in
Delaware Township, this county,
October 25th 1822,and was a daught
er of the late Cornelius and Han
nah Steele, Cortright. She mar
ried JohnV.Quick, who died in 1896,
and livtd in this place until some
twenty-five years ago when they
removed to a farm in Montague N.
J. After the death of her husband
she came to reside in Milford. She
was a woman possessed of many
amiable qualities, un excellent neigh
bor, a warm friend, a dutiful wife,
an affectionate mother and for thir
ty years a consistent member of the
M. . church. She is survived by
two children George R., with whom
she lived and Miranda, wife of Frank
Dewitt of this place, and by three
brothers, William II., of Milford, ;
Webb W , of Matamoraa and Henry
M., of Delaware township. A sister
rittruh, who married James Rosen
oranse, resides in Michigan. The
funeral which was largely attended
was held Sunday from the M. E.
Church. The floral tributes were
numerous and beautiful, and the
decorations at the church, which
hud been prepared for Childrens'
Day, made the surroundings typical
of that land of everlasting bloom to
which her spirit had taken its
flight.
INTERESTING NEWS.
A whiskey drummer, who bus
sold the liquid damnntion for twenty
five years past, stood in the Globe
Hotel the other day and made a
speech that ought to make every
temperance man shake bands with
himself, He said :
In this section of the county the
sale of whiskey is decreasing every
year. We sell less and less of it with
each succeeding year. People lmvo
quit drinking. It is no longer con
sidered in good form to swill it. A
drunken man is a disgrace. A tip
pler cannot hold a job anywhere that
is respectable and progressive. The
railroads won't have him neither
will anybody else. The sentiment
is getting stronger all the time. The
teacher, the preacher and the paper
are all creating sentiment.
In twenty years from now the
whiskey problem will have sol red
itself. Beer, Soda-water, lemonade,
milk shake and other light bever
ages will have crowded it out of the
saloon anil the drug store into the
medicine chest of the doctor." On
tralia (Kan.) Courier.
You have probably seen a great
deal i;i the pajiers lately about for
mer United States Senator Matthew
Stanley Quay, or perhaps yon have
hoard your father talking about him.
Here is a story they tell about the
Senator when he was a boy which
partakes a great deal more ofp:litics
than generosity.
Coming home from a trip the fath
er of Senator Quay called him into
the room nnd said that he had
brought homo with him two pres
ents. One was for Matthew and one
for his sister and he was going to give
him his choice. Tli J he showed him
a little Bihlu and a tin sword anil
asked him which ho wanted. Mat
thew promptly said he wanted the
Bible. His father was very much
pleased but also astonished and ask
ed him why he had mako such a
choice. Mitthew truthfully ans
wered :
"Why I know that sister would
not want the sword and if I took the
Bible then I would luive them

Lawsuit in Justice Fuller's Court.
( From Our Layton Correspondent . )
There was a lawsuit in Justice
Fuller's Court at the Hainesville
house on Monday afternoon between
B. B. Hursh, plaintiff and one John
D. Harris, defendant. Prosecutor,
John L. Swayze of Newton conduct
ed the ca9e for Harsh while Harris
presented his own, assisted as to
liw points by W. H. VanSickle. The
evidence was to the effect that Har
ris had trespassed upon B. B. Hursh 's
promises with intent to fish, and
Mr. Swayze asked the court to
charge the jury that since the tres
pass was admitted, at least exem
plary dimages must be awarded.
The jury consisted of twolve men
and promptly gave in a verdict of
six cents damage and the cost,
against Harris Wo learn that,
though it did not appear in evidence
this Harris is a boarder at the
Hainesville House, and claims to le
from New York. Probably from
the Bowery or Tenderloin, judging
from his appearance and actions.
and expects to fish wherever he
pleases. When requested to move
off Hurshe's premises he became
abusive and threatened to wipe the
earth with him. It appears as law
yer Swayze said, "that he was
big bully," and he looks it. We are
pleased to see city people come
among us who are gentlemen, con
siderate of the rights of our people,
and willing to ask or pay for the
privileges they desire, but it is time
this nuisance of any loafer coining
in as a summer boarder at our hotels
or any where else and fishing and
hunting the lands of busy tamers
without leave or license, should be
abated, and we believe the property
owners of the valley will endorse
the action of B. B. Hursh in trying
to protect his property against this
worthless class wlie act the bully,
and expect to ride over the rights of
others, ns this man Harris appar
ently tried to do, H.

Texas' singing well.
tt OIvm Onft Wailra SonntU1 and Rise
a Falls With lha Wind.
About three miles west' of Cednr
Rayon, Harris county, Texas Is a re-
ninrknble well. When It whs (I hit no
one can tell, but It has been In exist
ence for more thnn tK years. The well
Is known as the "HIiikIur Well."
In calm, tine weather a sound like
that of an Aeolian harp comes upward
between the angles of vines below. At
times the sound seems nearer and
clearer; then again It recedes, as If fnr
away, and reaches the ear very faint
ly. These change take place every
few minutes and with great regularity.
W Ith an east wind blowing the water
In the well gets very low and the mys
terious musical Round very faint. A
strong west wind causes the water to
rise and the sound to increase In vol
ume and clearness.
Hut It is Inst before a great norther
that the old well plays Its wildest
pranks. Then, for several hours, the
water rises to within a few feet of the
top of the well, and emits the weirdest.
wildest noises tliat ever reached mi
nimi ears. At siioh times even the
water drawn nut with buckets luoaus
and walls as If In anguish.
The well Is alMi.it teet deep. A
few years ago the hind ou which It
Is located was lxu ght by a Mr. Wnt-
klns. who. not liking the sounds that
enme from the well, employed two men
to till It up. Thej shoveled dirt Into
the well two wet ks. but It did not
effect the depth ol water perceptibly,
and they threw up the contract.
From the measurements of the ex
cavations they had made It was cal
culated that the well should have la-en
tilled up a little more than twice.
Tile water is very clear. Willi a mu
lsh tint, nnd Is fairly palatable. No
other wells In the uelghlxirhood show
such pranks ns are played by the
Singing Well."
t'nnlit Not Sltitnt,
A Hindu looks upon the slaughter
of an animal with the same dread
and horror with which he would wit
ness the taking of a life of a human
being. It would be well for some of
the hunters from our own country to
learn from such pagans a lesson In
Immunity. Rev. M. Fay Mills tells the
storv of n hunter who employed as A
decoy for deer a peculiarly construct
ed whistle, which closely Imitated Un
voice of a young lawn calling Its
mother.
With his rifle In hand ready for
Instant action, he was one day blow
ing his whistle, when suddenly a
mother deer thrust her head out of the
bushes nnd looked straight toward
li 1 m. There she stood, trembling with
fear, yet looking this way ami that
In search of the little one which she
supposed to be In danger. The hunter
said:
"As I looked Into those eloquent
eyes, anxiously glancing here and
there with maternal fear, my heart
melted. 1 could not shoot."
Young deer thst have not lieen
chased or tired at by hunters will fre-
qtuantly come very near to unarmed
travelers. The writer, while driving
along a country roatl in northern
Maine, has had a deer walk just In
advance of the horse for some dis
tance; and it Is well known that wild
deer often come hit j pastures ami feetl
wllh the cows. To take advantage of
this confidence seems very near to
murilei.
Rats anil rnilargroiinil Wires.
Rats are playing havoc with the
under-ground telephone nnd telegraph
cables In St. I, mils. They have dis
covered that the wires are covered
with pnrHttined paper, and they rather
like the taste. To satisfy their ap
petites, they must gnaw through the
lead casing around the wires. It has
happened in a number of cases that the
rats In gnawing through the lead
cables, to get at the greased paper,
hnve bared the copper wires in such
a manner as to make It Impossible to
establish communication over tliein
Every time this happens It costs the
company whose wires are Interrupted
all the way from a few dollars
several hundred. The telephone men
are trying to devise some means of
Btopplng the depredations.
Tlis I'eopla Who Ward lira'.
The people In all lines of duty who
do the most work are the calmest,
most unhurried. Duties never wildly
chase eech other In their lives. One
task never turns another out, not ever
compels hurried, imperfect doing. The
calm spirit works methodically, doing
one thing at a time well, and It, there
fore, works swiftly, though never tp
pearlng to be In haste.

V C aralnl Haw Van Sit.
Recently an eminent physician gave
utterance to the opinion that appendi
citis Is more common In this country
than In others because of the Yankee
custom that men have and men are
more frequently sufferer from the
disease than women of habitually sit
ting with one leg thrown over the otb
er. This habit, the physician was
quoted as saying, restricts the action
of the dlgeatlve apparatus, and es
pecially the lower Intestine, and
causes stagnation of the contents and
the stretching of the opening of the
vermiform appendix, making It possi
ble for obstructions to reach the latter.
and thus giving rise to appendicitis.
There Is no other diseaae. If we may
judge from the attention given to It
by current publications. In which the
general public takes so much interest
as this one, which Is comparatively
new to medical practice. Probably
much of the popular Interest Is due
to the fact that only within a few years
what may be called the literature of
appendicitis has reached the reading
community.
