MAST HOPE Tho profttoft flood ever known on the Delaware has come and gone and loft destruction in its trail. At William Hwks the water was 5 foot deep on the first floor ; tho family was obllgod to sook refuse In the barn Friday night and stay thoro about 24 hours. At William Hankins the stork was removed to the orchard, pota toes were carried out and tho family was prepared to leave. Water cov ered the dooryard wall so that tiny oould ride over it and up to the Ten Mile Rivor in the road or farther back in the fields if they wished. Driftwood and pumpkins floated in the yard and they could catch drift from their gate. They got in the barn walking over a plank. The barn yard was a pond. Besides pumpkins floating into the barn yard, there also came the picture of Mr. Davenport whose house went away from Narrowsburg. A small piece of the glass was broken out otherwise it was not Boiled. John Hermon was not home but his wifo with sovon children and an old lady were there. The childron did not undress but wont to sleep uutil 11 o'clock when they were called. Their mother then carried out chairs and quilts into au old pig pen when they remained until the next day In the afternoon. About 5 the next morning N. R. Hankins went to them with food and built a flro on the hillside so thoy oould keop warm.' Mrs. Her mon said said when the lantern came to view, it was pleasing to see. The water was about 2 feet deep but no serious damage was done to any thing. At Margaret Hoffmans they could not leave, having waited until the water got too deep, and then had to go upHtairs. Bod springs and var ious other articles lodged against her house. R. Hankins orossed the river when at its highest to attend his cows which were shut np iu the barn. The wooden bridge above J . Barlow's on the west branch of Ten Mile River was washed away, the iron bridge on the east branch and tho the stone arch near J. Barlows. The east branch now runs through H. Tuthlll's garden and across the road near the arch through Mr. Barlow's field. Jesse Barlow was at Montteello attending the republi can convention. His wife carried many things out of the house and then the family left the house. The pig pen was carriod away but the pig was resoued. The gristmill and the saw mill dams both gave way. The stone arch at the grist mill still stands but the wings wall and the filling have disappeared. The brook road and the road from Hankins to M. H. Hoffmans are impassible on account "of stones of all sizes and drift wood. Among the drift Is the bureau belonging to John Davenport of Narrowsburg and the oontents have been taken oare of. The drift consists of furniture, parts of build ings, aoid faotory, a bridge, a tower to a bridge, pumpkins, etc. One pumpkin marked J. Arnold Han oock ; a sign lettered "F. A. Banden. ldislle, Undertaker" j n paper iu a bottle on which was written J, C. Shanley, 1902, and many things not yet known. The road on the Penn'a side in the cut below Dabrons Is all gone. Raymond Tuthill Is home for a week. Mr. Markle has moved his family into the upper mill house. Eli Johnson moved bis horses over into the Seldon barn on account of high water. The iron bridge near hii house was entirely submerged. Old and young were enjoying a boat rido lu what seemed to be a pond above the bridge. When the taxes come In they will not be so greatly enjoyed. Miss Minckler and Bisters of Fre mont Centre spent several days in this place and during the time went oianberrying. Miss Lizzie Boomer is guest of her mother. Miss D. Seldon Is In New York city. rA N T E D AN ENTERPRISING If " A R.Vi KK Id this scctlun to cnnvrnis during the Lite full and winter amuug the iKrmerd in his vicinity.

Deniings on the 7th inst. lhe groom Is a popular youne man and is conductor on a Newark trolley line, lhe bride is an estimable young lady of Layton, and their hosts of friends wish thom all the happiness and success attainable. They will begin housekeeping In Newark at once. By the weather service gunge I recorded nearly 9 inches of water in Oct. Thursday and Friday lost. I was in New York and the downfall was greater by nearly one-half than It was here. Our roads are almost mpassable and on many roads the bridges were swept away. West street, N. Y., could be navigated by boat, and they had lots of trouble. The loss in this county on roads and ridges will be largo. I am told that John Y. Clark. whose deatli occurred on Wednesday. had a policy on his life off 1000 nd John S. Hursh one of 12000. Both In the Mutual Life of New York. Thursday last I Journeyed to Trenton to attend the reunion of my regiment the 1st Now Jersey vet. ol. cavalry. Only about sixty of the comrades were present and I can truly say that no veteran should miss their regimental reunion. To clasp by the hand the comrade who camn- ed, marched and fought by your side for 3 years is a pleasure prized by all comrades. Many of the bovs. n w familiarly term them, were very ntlrm, and as we bade each other goodbye we realized that it might be for the last time. Col. Kester, the beloved commander of the regiment, is iu the asylum at Philadelphia, and In good physical health although Insane. The next reunion at Trenton second Thursday of October 1901. John J. Vansickle and Mr. Rumor of Bucyrus arrived at Layton Monday noon. Their stay will be brief. That comradeship existing amone soldiers was fully exemplified on Sunday- when the writer was told by tire conductor, Whyms, that I must get off as his train could not go further than Warbasse's Junction. Where I was 15 miles from mv home, wnen Comrade David Webb said, "come over to the house and have some dinner and I will send you home." I had a splendid dinner thanks to his estimable wife and in due time was set down at ray door. That I would call true, soldierly feeling. Tuesday the democratic convention for nominating candidates for senator and surrogate will be held at Newton. That there will be a heap of wire pulling Is a sure thing. I hear that James Swartwout. living over along, the river. Is very ill of typhoid fever. Mr Swartwout has the sympathy of all his many friends in his affliction. Samuel Swartwout, an aged colored man, was killed last week by a Monticeuo train at rort Jervis. lie had lived at the Alms House for the past two years and was out for a visiting tour. He was a quiet, in offensive man, and hadn't an enemy in me wona. The rains of last week raised the stream along the now road, and damaged the abutments of the bridge near Tuttles Corner so that extensive repairs must be made.

Do Good H Pays. A Chicago man has observed that, "Good deeds are better than real estate deeds some of the latter are worthies. Act kindly and gently, show sympathy and loud a helping baud. You cannot possibiy lose by it." Most meu appreciate a kind word and encouragement more than substantial help. There are persons in this community who might truth fully say : "My g'Kid friend, cheer up. A few dosoa of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy wdl rid you of your oold, and there is no ddnger what ever from pneumonia when you use that inetlieiue. It alw.iys cures.
