" Tlio nlliMnlfinco at tlio l'islior
r-ir)l nlpng the rivor hnvins
iHvindlnd to mm or two pupils n
il iy, it wnt dosed on Tnen lny o(
Hits week upon onst;estion of Kupt.
Hill. The two rivur schools, as we
c 1 11 thnm, will not make a fnir
si.eil scliool when combined. A
fow yenrs ngo thoy were put to
(fethor hut a few prevailed upon the
hoard or education to reopen the
upper school. The building needed
extensive repairs besides new books,
together costing surijt sum, and
ihns weakening both schools and
costing the town over tlOO per year
and for nothing. With the 1500
voted for boobs this year and other
expenses may cause the tax papers
to ask why this was dona. Those
two schools should be consolidated,
the sooner the bettor.
t bear of no great catches of tront
beir.g made although a number have
tried their luck. The general opin
ion is that the fish are not in the
streams. Stocking the streams and
lakes has no effect hi increasing
the number of fish for in fact fish
ing ia poorer now that it was 30
years ago and yet the state keeps
on stocking here and there a stream
or pond and that is all it amounts to
Garden making is in order just
now and occasionally one has com
pleted planting everything but a
majority are going slow and wait
ing the coming of summer weather.
Arbor day was celebrated by near
ly all of our schools but so far as
treo planting is concerned the day
is a farce With hardly nn excep
tion our sobool grounds are mostly
road and there is no room for trees.
Hasten tho day when each township
will have only ono central school
aud appropiate school grounds, and
that day is not very far away.
The school of Miss Elia Hursh a
short distance back of Uingmans
closed on Friday last. The exer
cises of the last day were of a pleas
ing character to the pupils. Prizes
won during tho term were presented
and each pupil roceivod a neat sack
of,candy, etc.
The Silver Spring creamery at
Bevans has reopened for business
aud I am glad to note with an in
creased supply of milk. There is
no reason why it should not be lib
erally patronized as its operations
of last year were satisfactory to Its
patrons.
The subject of good roads is rapid
ly coming to the front in almost
every county in this state, except
here in Sussex. Our board of free
holds Bhould take up this matter at
the earliest possible moment for
the counties around as are taking
advantage of the good roads law
and are improving their roads.
City people will select such sections
as are blessed with good roads, and
all know with them comes improve
ments, fine buildings and increased
valuation.
On Sunday, the 20 ult., I took in
the Erie excursion from Port Jer.
vis to New York and can say that
the trip is fully worth the dollar it
costs. The train was exactly on
time on both ends of the trip aud of
the seven wall filled cars I did not
see an intoxicated person although
one could get "wot goods" in Jer
sey City or Newark.
Occasionally I hear persons talk
ing about tho D. V. R. H. coming on
np this valley but don't fcaw whioh
side of the river it will be built. To
hear tho owners talk one would be
led to infer that the right bf way
would eost little or nothing. Talk
is cheap. Iiet a committee of prom
tuent oitizens go over the route and
find what tho cost will be and re
port to the railroad uflioiula for we
want that road mighty bad.

A feeling "f deep sorrow wai
manifested by every person in thi
community Saturday morning last
when the news spread, throughout
the neighborhood that Hon. Jacob
B. Westbrook bad departed this life
at an parly hour that morning ; and
that sadness will be felt for a lone
time to come by his many warm
friends who will nevermore hear
his cheery greet liig, receive timely
aid from his helping band and be
guided ly his prn lent o oimael.
Mr. Westhroolt was taken sick
several week 4 since and at length it
was deemed advisable for him to go
south in -the hoe-that a change of
climate would bo beneficial, and ac
companied by his faithful wife bo
started thence ; but . on reaching
Philadelphia he Was prevailed niwin
to enter a hospital and place himself
nnder the care oT a specialist. Here
for a brief period ha apparently im
proved but after few diys ho be
gan to fail rapidly and it was
thought better that he should go
further southward and in company
with his wife aud Dr. H. E. Emer
son and wife niaVie a start thence
.but on reaching Old Point Comfjrt
he became so very ill he, desired to
return immediately to- Dingmans
and he was brought home via New
York, -reao'iirig this"' village"' on
Thursday night in semi nncon
scious state, tlajjiugored until Sat
urday morning , when death ended

following f arming in the summer
time until he reached manhood.
Afterward he attended the Eistman
business college at Poughkeepsio,
and later secured a position as tele
graph operator1 at Pittsburg, but in
a few years he returned to Ding
mans where ho engaged in the mer
cantile business in whioh he proved
eminently successful and accumu
lated a snug forttine.
While still a young man he enter
ed politics by baing elected town
olerk and then steadily rose in that
line, being twice elected county
treasurer and finally being honored
by being sent a representative to
the state legislature and was a mem
her of that body when lie died. He
was also secretary of the Delaware
school board for several terms.
Mr. WefttbreViir' Whs -Bj-'thorough

Something Good.
So many go to thbir druggists flhd
merely ask for "something good"
for a cough or cold. Now if the
druggist has several remoaies he
certainly will sell the one that does
not cost mnch When you go to a
drug store better know what you
want. Ask for Mexican Cough
Syrup if you want the nicest and
quickest oough cure twenty-five
conts will buy. Take no other.
Terrible Neglect.
If a mother through ignorance or
otherwise fails to give her child
some Mother's Worm SvmD. when
the little one by its coated tongne,
by its lustreless eyes, by Its puny
form, pale skm, listless movements,
variable appetite, etc., shows that
it has worms, is she not guilty of
terrible neglect? Mother's Worm
Syrup only costs 25 cents and never
fails to destroy and expel all intes
tinal worms.
Sick Headache.
Pity the man, pity the woman,
that suffers from sick headache,
sometimes so bad they can hardly
ace. . The best way to care sick
headache is to remove the cause by
taking a Mexican Root Pill. This
Clense the system of all effete
matter, driving out through the
bowels the irritative influences so
aggravating to the brain and nerves.
Price 25 cents.
Conquers Pain.
Mexican Quick Relief, price 25
ceuts, conqners all pain, subdues
internal ache and kills external tor
ture. Mo other remedy so sure to
cure, so safe to apply Try it.
You Should Know.
That yoar blood is impu-e, when
a plight bruise or cut makes ft sore
that bufils most BKgravatingly slow.
Your blood is bud if you are easily
e.i..i!y - overheated or easily

so V.i ak and miserable if your blood
was pure. Make it pure and your
