Irving Oourtrlglit 1ms constructed the new ferryboat for fobt passengers that runs from Pennsylvania avenue to Pike street, across the Delaware. (irafton Crane, an employe in Itellevue Hospital, New York City, and who lias been very ill, is now able to sit up. Messrs. Sherman Skinner and Fred Cor win visited Hrink Pond last Thursday and Friday. They brought home some nice game. Mr. nnd Mrs. John Kelley of King wood, N. J., spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Horace Davy on Cookson street, accompanied by their two children. Miss Ida K. Westbrook of Colum bus, Georgia, who has been spending the month of October in Mntamoraa and near Milford, has returned to Columbus. She will visit a few days in New York and Brooklyn before she leaves for the south. George Martin of the New York City postolTiee spent Sunday in Mnta morns. Two Ferries are now in oerntion in Matamoras. A. J. Quick's at the foot of Main street and one at the foot of Pennsylvania avenue. John Deckley has charge of the Inst one mentioned. That Is just for foot passengers and will rin all day and all night also to accommodate the railroad men coming from their work in tho.night. Another ferry will be' in operation next week, conducted by John P. Van Etten of the Cona shaugh House on the grounds where the first ferry was established by the late Judge Oliver S. Dimmick. This ferry will be for wagons" and foot passengers also. S. TAUPAC. Sunday last Mrs. B. F. Killam returned to her home after spending two weeks in Philadelphia. Olive nnd Kate Ansley spent Sun day with their parents, Geo. Ansley and wife. John Singer moved on the farm of the late Herman Gumble, which he has rented, the first of the week. The house vacatQd by Mr. Singer will be occupied by Joe Houver. The box social held on the 6th wns well attended nnd over $18 was captured. If there were any who didn't have a good time they ought not to complain as it must have been their own fault. Mr. nnd Mrs. Gilpin of Hawjey were visitors in this place Sunday. Mrs. II. F. Adams returned to Klmira Saturday. Our Squire's party had the good luck to kill two deer the first day of deer season. No others have been killed to our knowledge, although several have been seen. Acx. Mr. Ilanna's post-tlectlon state ment of bis attitude on the question of the presidential nomination should be conclusive to those who have persisted in pulling bis name forward for that honor. At a time when the eyes of the country were centered upon him more than any other one man, by reason of his overwhelming victory in Ohio, he quietly and positively reiterated his announce ment that lie would not be a candi date for tiie presidency. In sentencing a Texas dude for insulting ladies, the judge said: " hen you get out oljail you will take olT your hat to women and keep your bunds in your pockets." Quite a clever performance, even for a Texan. It would make as interest ing a picture as Boine of the recent candi. lutes running for office. It may not bo generally appreciated even by the ttmii-uiids of camera enthusiasts, that the kodak trust is second only to the Stand.trd Oil trust in wealth, puwer and crushing ability.

'.'iiic-, Flection is over nnd gone and for once everything passed off very quietly. The w orkers for each party kept at w ork until the polls closed. Very few remained to hear the result when the votes were counted, thus showing there wns liftle int'rost. Jacob D. Price for senator received 70 majority, llifT for assembly 611 majority nnd l)emnrest for surrogate 02 majority, ntnl nil three were elected. The bunting season opens In New Jersey Tuesday of this week, nnd every hunter ha li gun In working order. Shooting has been altogether too frequent the past week, and the large amount of game that will be brought in the first day of hunting will substantiate that fact. Com husking is making rapid progress nnd this week will see most of it in the crib. The yield is the poorest in years, and it will be some thing of a rarity to see a crib chuck full this fall. Charley Cortright of Montague and whoisnttending the Newton Business College spent Saturday at his home near the Brick House. Charley is n Jolly all round good fellow and I wish him unlimited successr Edward Adams and friend of Bloomfield, N. J., came up Monday for their usual hunting trip and are stopping with H. E. Montross at the Layton hotel. Hunters are of the opinion that there Is a scarcity of gniue, especially quail. Sandyston board of education met Saturday evening and sold the con tract for carting the coal for the schools for the coming winter. Mr. Bellis of Walpack got the contract of carting at $1.G0 per ton. A few nights ago a skunk took refuge under the front stoop or Mrs. Rosenkriins In Centreville. The boys made up their minds to capture that skunk, and they did, but my, what a smell. Winter is almost here, nnd the mercury Sunday morning marked 20 above zero making ninny believe it was really here. The fire felt mighty good that morning. Miss Allie Gunn, after a brief stay in Orange, N. J., is now visiting relatives at Perth Amboy. Some people are flattered at getting their photo printed In sensational papers in connection with the recent murder. That is one way of achiev ing unpleasant notoriety, but it sells the papers. -i - I am told by one of our freeholders that the new -road will be completed in twenty good working days. I hope this will prove true, for the old road is in a terrible condition and provocative of a deal of profanity. The extra meetings at Layton closed the pfst week and our sinners are still sinners Notwithstanding the efforts ol the clergy. The feature of (he meetings was the singing of Miss Campbell of Ware, Massachusetts, a mission worker and estimable lady. The remarks of Prof. Koehler at your recent institute on Written Test Work are only too true. Pupils using pencil and tablet writing out their work are only too apt to disregard correct formation of letters and consequently become poor writ ers. This habit may cling to them through life and this habit of rapid writing gets worse as time goes on. To receive a nicely written letter correctly spilled and punctunted Is the exception more than the rule. The remarks in the Press of last week in regard to sensational 6torles of the Bevan murder are pertinent. Our press is printing much that is detrimental to the accused and will have an effect to prejudice the" public mind! Every accused Is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty. Tuesday morning the discharge of guns was incessant and to an old vet it puts him in mind of the skirmish line down In Dixie. Eston Vansicle Is at home for a week from his duties at Newton and is nursing a case of bloodpoison In the third finger of his right hand. It is hoped that it is not serious. John C. Snook, one of our oldest citizens, is very ill of kidney trouble. Mr. Snook has been a hard - working man and now past the three score years and ten his age is against him.

Did Isaac display fuith? How was the ram prophetic of Christ? (Note John 8:56.) Cliapter 23: Death nnd burial of Sarah. Acts 7 : 4, 5 shows how scant wns Abrahani'o earthly inheritance Was Epbron aa gene rous as be nppenred? The price ot Maehpelnh was about f 250. Chapter 24 : A Wife Sought for Isaac. Abraham wished his Bon to marry in his own tribe. Why? Who act ed ns messenger? Why so great an equipage? What influenced Laban? (v 30 and 53 ) Isaac according to custom recoived Bebekah as his wife before ha had soen her face. Was he disappointed? Division 2. Rend Luke 4:14 to end of chapter. Then Matt. 5-7: 27. Preaching and Miracles. Places Nazareth and Capernaum. Sermon on Hill above Gonnesaret. What cnused the sudden wrath of his hearers in Luke 4: 28, 29? (Compare Acts 22:21, 22.) This first insult agrees with Matt. JO: 38. What fear possessed the demon whom Jesus cast out? .Do demons control men today? Note the last cruel fling of enmity v 35. Why does God Buffer Satan and his followers to work mischief? Note in v 38 that Simon Peter was a married mnn. Romanists deny this. In Christ's sermon notice the number of comments introduced by "Ye have heard that it was said." Note the letter of the law but the spirit of it Is emphasized by Jesus. Division 3. Bead Roui. 9 and 10. The subject of "election" is treated in chapter 9. Because of the faith, fulness of many Israelites the elec tion embraces the Gentiles. Paul protests his loyalty to all Israelite. (? 3) yet faithfully draws a sharp distinction between yrorldly and spiritual children of AbrntiKm. Note thoughts emphasized : God's choice v 11, His sovereignty r 20, dostrno tiou of vessols of wrath v 22, exal tation of vessols of meroy v 23, few saved 29, righteousness by faith v 30-32. Why does God re quire faith for salvation? Will good works tave anybody? Chnptor 10 further discusses how the - Gentiles found salvation. Note difficult verses for discussion in class. That continual whirring noise Is simply the wind whistling through the legs of Carter Harrison as he runs for the presidential nomination. Car ter wants to be president and his brother wants to come to Congress. This would leave only the senate as a check, and the people would never take such chances. 'Editor Watterson Is still fulminat ing over that !00 of which he was robbed in New Y'ork. If New Y'ork knows what Is good for It, it will make up that 300 by popular sub scription. Stepped Against a Hot 8tov A child of Mrs. George T. Benson, when getting his usual Saturday night bath, stepping baok against a hot stove which burned hiun severe ly. The child was in great agony and his mother oould do nothing to pacify him. Remembering that she had a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm In the house, she thought she would try it. In less than half an hour after apply It the child was quiet and asleep, and in less than two -weeks was well. Mrs. Benson is a well known resident of Kollar, Va. Pain Balm is an antiseptic, liuimeut and especially valuable for burns, cuts, bruises and sprains. For sale by Balch & Son, Matamoras, and general stores In Pike county. The report of the commissioner of the general land ofliee just issued shows that during the last fiscal year 2,(100,028 acres of public lands were taken up by private Individuals. The.se enormous figures, taken In connection with the current reports of wholesale land stealing In the west should cause the country to call a halt on this rapid disposal of the public domain, especially when It is shown that but little of it goes ot create actual homes. The Best Remedy for Croup Fruin the Att hUun, A'ut., Daily Olube. This is tha season when the wo man who knows the best remedies for croup is iu demand in every neighborhood. One of the uiobt ter rible things in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are utmost as sure to bo lost, in case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old. fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive Byrup aud tolu, but some modern mothers say that Chamber. Iain's Cough Keuiedy is better, and docs not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quicker, and fcivn relief in a kliortor time. Give tins remedy as soon a the the croupy cough apjRiars and it will prevent the attack.
