A few eouples j lin ed In n ride, others visited Brook-tide Park hut the majority were at work on the farm. Harvest has commenced but the recent high winds and rain has tangled it very much. Iliying is also going ahead, but work is much hindered from want of help. Our roadsare being worked and on some pieces of ro;vl much fault in being found as the condition of the road is worse than before repairs were made. The o-erseer h.tnds in his order worked out and tho 'Com- mittee ignoni't of how the work h is been done accepted tho order. The Commit to should go over the town and see for themselver before ac cepting any order. During the thunder storm on Thursday the burn buildings on the fnrm of Joseph C. Warner, just above Hainesvillo, were struck by lightning and burned. A few loads of bav were in the barns and some farm implements. Our B. of E. met on Saturday ev ening and lured teachers tor the Bevans and Tnttlo corner school Miss Alice Raihngo secured the former school and Miss McCormiek the latter. One of the trustees and a patron had a brilliant discussion and the ten commandments wore not strictly adhered to in the discussion But it beat adjusting a fire loss by a good deal. Contrevillo ha? enjoyed a period of quiet for some lime and the cy clonic storm cent re appears in llie neighborhood of Haines ille, and although the cyclone is frequent, nobody so far has been seriously damaged lint the pitcher goes once too often sometimes.' William Monro a veteran of the N. J. infantry died here some titnn ago, and inquiry finds no re latives. He left some personal ef fects to which they are entitled, es pecially his discharge. I notice in the comity press the death of Col, Win.E. Morford, form erly of Newton. He was at one time an officer in the 1st N. J. Cav. and well do I remember enlisting with him on Feb. 1, 1862aod I think his office was where the Losey bak ery is situated and it scorns as if it was only a few days ago. A mail inspector passed over this mail route last week to examine in to the proposed new direct line from Branchvillo to Dingmans Pa. From what he told Mr. Watson, tho pre sent carrier of tho mail, if any new routo is started, it will be from Lay ton to Dingman. Ho also told Mr. Watson that his time of departure from Bi-auchville would be fixed by tho arrival of tho mail train, thus getting the mail to Layton bofore 2 p. in. Richard Kent, of Bloomtiold N.

There is one par agraph in the D un iisratio platform that a majority of tho voters would like to see carried out, and that is the election of the U. S. S mators by popular vote.

His fam ily will stay near Dingman for the summer and he will return in a fort night to his duties ou tho front end of a trolley car. Al is lookiug fine. r Some of our people, carting to and from Branchvillo, are grumbling at the condition of the Fraukford end of the turnpike road. Oar end is in good order, and if Mr. Steffeu would extend his drawing of gravel, we would have the best road io the county. Ou Thursday last I was surprised to find that I could talk over the Suosex wires from our private local wire. The Sussex people could not work their line from here ou account of our wirh being iu coutact. Look ing along my wire I found them crossed directly iu front of my door and wite a tlsli pole I soon had them separated and both lines were free. Dayton Dcpue had a oow struck by lightning iu the storm of Wed nesday night. The cow was stand ing by the lightning rod at the end of tiie barn aud the singular part of it is, that the rod was broken into three pieces aud thrown about the yard.

Try it, JAMAICA GINGER DRINKING. Results From Its Use In Maine as a Substitute for Liquor. No Maine woodsninn has been killed by liquor receutly, but four have killed themselves by drinking the contents of a bottle labeled "Jamaica dinger." A few weeks ago the bodies of Hor ace T. Oariluer and Clinton Gardner, brothers, were found in a camp near M.'ichlas. The stomachs of the meu were sent to Bowilula College for ex amination, and on tho report of tho nnalyist a coroner's jury decided that the men came to their death from drinking a mixture, put up, as the labels on the bottles Btate, by the Hoyt Medicine Company, of Boston, and purporting to be Jamaica ginger. Upon analysis, this "ginger" was found to be composed of alcohol and capsicum, or red pepper, with only a slight trace of ginger. A few days ago two woodsmen in camp near Patten, Penobscot county, were taken sick with chills, and, no liquor being at hand, they bought from the "wangan," or camp Btore, a supply of so-called Jamaica ginger. The more tliey drank of the stuff the more they wanted, and soon their con dition became so alarming that a man was sent to the nearest town for a pliysician. One of tlie men died in agony long before the physician ar rived, and the other Is still In a criti cal condition. The woodsmen say the sufferings of the two men were fright ful. They clawed at the floor and sides of the camp, and frothed at the. mouth in their frenzy, while one of them begged his companions to take an axe and knock him ou the head, or to cut him open to see what it was that was burning him up. Vast quantities of this so-called Ja maica ginger are taken Into the wood ramps every winter 'y the " wangai; " keepers and sold to the men at a dol lar a bottle, the retail pr!ce at Bangor and elsewhere being generally twen'y live cents. When the men are sick ihey take It, and often whnn "hey de sire liquor they drink the ginger as a substitute. It is sold all over Maine In large quantities, esiieclully In those sections where the prohibitory b-.uor law is enforced. Iu Lewiston, a fav orite drink, called " Lincoln Street Split," is made by pouring two small hot tics of this ginger into a six-quart pall of old elder. No whiskey or Imi tation of whiskey ever made could equul the effect of this mixture. It Is worse than Ittissiun vodka, .tut plain alcohol is mild comparei'. with It. In many country towns the sale of this ginger concoction Is causing havoc among the young men, w lo deem it lots harmful than liquor iiniD ly liecause it Is not t-hiMscd as sm-h, aud because the law does not foibij HURRAH FOR RUBBERS !
