SANDYSTON.
The Riirost indication of sprintr is
in hearing tli6 f imiliur clink of the
quoits on the villnRO green. Many
signs are apt to fail, but you can
gamble on the fact that spring is
surely here when that "clink,
clink" is heard.
Mr. Elizabeth Tisdell, wife of
Richard Tisdell of Sparrowbush,
died at that place on the 18th inst.
She was a daughter of Nicholas
Tilliman, deceased, of tins town,
and of his family of nine children
this is the second death, Albert dy
ing at Port Jervis on Jan. 2 and
Elizabeth as above stated. One of
her brothers, Alfred, resides in this
town and another, Nicholas, resides
in Walpack. Deceased was 72 years
of age.
Dr. Hughes drives over about as
many miles of road as any mnn in
the Delaware valley, and it is no
more than natural that he should
be a lover of good roads. He has
had tho road near his residence
filled in with stone, thus raising the
road quite two feet, tho township
agreeing to cover the stone with
gravel, and when completed will be
ft good job. Would that there were
more men in this township as pub-lio-spirited
as the doctor.
Rambler, in last wook's Press,
asks, "Will Sandyston ever get
quieted down?" I rise to remark
that Sandyston should not think of
quiet or security as long as she lias
men within her borders who burn
buildings, poison stock and girdle
trees, and also contains persons who
tacitly, if not openly, uphold such
dastardly crimes. Does Rambler
agree with ine so farV
In the New Jersey weather report
for March I find an artiole which is
highly interesting. On the third
page of the report is a full descrip
tion of tho solar motor. This motor
is in successful operation, working a
15-horso power engine, at the Os
trich farm at Pasadena, Cal., nnd it
is used to pump water. It lifts
1400 gallons a minute. The power
for this machine is obtained from
the sun's rays by means of a great
reflector containing 1800 glass mir
rors each 3 inches by 24 All you
have to do when the sun shines is
to start it j then yon can go about
your business. This is a great age
of invention, and H is only a ques
tion of time how soon aerial naviga
tion will be an assured fact, for sub
marine navigation is a success and
travel through tho air is bound to
come and that soon.
Last week was a dreary one for
the sun was hardly visible at any
time. On Saturday afternoon and
evening it began to rain in earnest
and by Sunday noon 2.46 inches
of water had fallen. This must
certainly replenish the springs and
wells that have been dry so long.
The town committee met on Sat
urday last to sell the contract for
hauling dirt and gravel on onr
roads. After much argument it was
decided to make three districts of
the main roads and appointed over
seers for each : John W. Johnson to
have the road lrom Lay ton to the
Montague line ; Henry Steffen the
road from Layton to the Frankford
line, and W. H. Van Sickle the
road from Layton to the Walpack
line. All are good men and we
shall have good roads, for which
let us be thankful.
The Andover correspondent of
the Sussex Record seems to have an
objection to the editor's placing the
names of correspondents along with
their items, and says something
about the surreptitious taking of
chickens on the part of the corre
spondent. Well, I won't argue the
question, but correspondents, as a
rule, will eat chicken; but steal?
No, sir I
Miss Rosetta Coursen, daughter
of John E. Courson of this town,
died on Saturday last aged about 3H
years. Deceased had been very ill
for some time and her sufferings
were terrible, and death came as a
happy releaso from pain. Her
father is quite sick and is confined
to his bed.
The iron bridge nt Layton has re

1 am glad to note that at the re

Mis Emma at once steps into the
Morria'ii shoe factory as stenograph

EstelUa has the preforenco of two
positions. When this institution
was started a few years ago it was
thought Newton would not support
it enough to make it. a success, but
under the hustliiis maunder, Prof
Hopkins, its list of pupils lias in
creased, and many of its graduates
are now hchling first class positions.
Its success as a school of instruction
is no longer doubted and for which
Prof. Hopkins is to be congratu
lated. Bort Rosenkrans of Norfolk, Vfl ,

The Pan-Amorican Exposition at
Buffalo promises to be the grandest
exhibition of American productions
and inventions ever held in this
country. It id only 383 mi'es from
Port Jervis by the Erie, so the cost
of going will not bo great, but tho
cost of living at Buffalo may bo on
the Waldorf-Astoria rate, nnd then
if your pockotboolc can stand the
strain, see the whole thing.
In looking over the different
school buildings in this town, I find
that every one, without exception,
needs repainting, besides other ro-
pirs. Now that vacation is not far
away, why can't tho Baad of Edu
cation get things in shape for a
thorough overhauling and have it
done during the vacation so that
everything will be in order when
the schools reopen in Septembor
noxt. An it-spoofion will bear out
t'ie facts above statod.

Some people have an idea if they

proporty in tho paper they will not
be able to get so good a price for
them, because if advertised it looks
