Litr to hear the speakers. The dale
of the meeting will be announced in
due season.
Walter K;,-te, youngest son of John
and Sarah Kyte of ICainesvllle, died
at his parents' homo on Thursday
last, aged about 31 years. His health
had not been good for some years,
yet he was about the farm most of
the time. He was soler, temperate,
obliging to all, and was much
respected.
Visiting ttie llainesville cemetery
a day or two ago I noticed the hand
some monument erected to the mem
ory of Jacob B. farmer nnd Cath
arine, his wife. Soon after her hus
band's deatli Mrs. Carmer had the
stone erected and I was informed
that her remains are Interred in the
cemetery of the Orange county poor
farm. Relatives should see to it that
her remains are laid to rest along
side of those of her husband, In her
beautiful plot In the llainesville
cemetery.
Just because a trustee did not like
the teacher engaged to teach his
school, lie refused to let her have the
key of the school room and has it yet,
and to cap the climax, he did not
have the school room cleaned as did
the trustees of other schools, and now
because another teacher had been en
gaged, whom he does not like, he
threatens to shut up the school house,
but I guess his vnporilngs are ns
enirty wind.
I am glad to see that a good many
are cutting the brush and weeds along
the road adjoining their lands. Here
and there is one who does not attend
to this duty and when such Is the
case it is the duty of the road master
to do the work and charge the same
to the owner of the lands. At least
I think that Is the law.
The Farmers', Mechanics' and
Tradesmen's picnic came off on Sat
urday last and like many of the pic
nics wound up in a rainstorm. The
attendance was not as large as in
former years and almost every one
condemned the condition of the
grounds. It is pretty safe to predict,
that unless those grounds are put
in order the people will not attend
for the grounds werfe in a horrible
condition, to gay nothing about the
road getting in and out from the
grounds.
I notice in the post ofnee at Layton
the time table of trains on the Delil'
ware Valley railroad from Strouds
burg to Uuslikill announcing the ar
rival and departure of trains from
those points. Their engineers are
surveying a line through this town
and it is to be hoped that no ditllculty
will be encountered in getting right
of way. A railroad through this
valley can not fail In benefiting the
inhabitants, and now that the pros
pects are bright no obstacles should
be thrown In Its way.
The Sunday school picnic held on
Thursday last In V. E. lievans' grove
was largely attended, and Judging
from what I hear all had a pleasant
time.

Some teachers have a habit of
making applications for schools in
different townships to the annoyance
of the boards of education. The 8
schools of this town opened on Tues
day, and with the exception of the
school at lievans all are in operation.
A Miss Brown was chosen by our
board fur that school, and a day or
two ago notice was received that she
hud a school at the time of hiring here.
It is annoying to school officials and
defeated a local teacher from getting
that school and applications from
such will Jnot be considered by our
board In the future.
