FAvoRADLr REcKIvED--ft pleases us to know that our suggestions to have the town authorities deed a portion of the plaza to the county au. thorities, for county purposes, have been favora- ply received by several of fellow citizens, who think just as we do, that It would be a good move. Tbe offices soon to be erected by the county will be good and substantial, and when ws state that l. Is the intention to erect them In such way as will permit another building or buildings to be erected adjoining or on top sf them, all will. we hope, see the inducement to the proposed deed, which will, in time-a short time at that-greatly improve that waste place-the Prescott plaza. Our citizens should lose no time In srming the Supervisors with proper authority to take charge of and improve enough ground in the place spoken of to not only hold all necessary buildings but, alec, 10 form lawn or garden spo, around said buildings, all of which might be fenced, and adorned with grass, trees. etc.

The Last Jump of Sam Patch.
sli Perkins in the N. Y. Commercial Adver-


Eli Perkins in the N. Y. Commercial Adver-
tiser.
While in Rochester l met Mr.. Heb
bard, an old resident of Genesee county,
who saw Sam Patch make his famous
Jump off Genesee Falls, thirty or forty
wears ago. He says that jump day
was great day in Rochester. The peo-
nle gathered for miles around to see this
intermittent American jumper as he
performed his last feat / shouldn't say
intermittent jumper, but chronic jumper,
for Sam was all the time as crazy to
Jump down waterfall, as George Fran
els, our chronic candidate for the Presi-
dency, is crazy to run for the White
House.
Sam Patch had previously jumped
over Niagara. Then, saying some
things can be done as well as Others, he
slashed around like Sergeant Bates
through the western part of the State to
back up his proverb. Before his last
iump he bought big black bear OF a
circus man, and led him over the turn
pike to Rochester.
Sam was a queer philosopher He
had theory that each new generation
had more knowledge and could do
greater deeds than its predecessor. de
often said that his father knew more
than his grandfather, and that he knew
more than his father.
"Why, thunderationl Sam, by your
arpuefying, your grandfather must have
been a darned fool" interposed a by
stander; but he only turned around and
! eammeneed talking about something
else. NJ. ..no

Il ON the Jump" and all for notoriety.,
One dsy. when he was little boy, his
mother who lived in a clearing near
Brockport was speaking of Sans pre-
eocity

catechism from ind to IND; ana she'
snnles as well as his mother.
Yes" said Sam, an yesterday
licked Bill Simpson, throwed the kltlens NJ
lin the well, and jumped on the saW-ni
into the Aume."
Sam himself said be once came home
tight washed the face Of the clock, ano
then wound up the baby and set 1t Tor
ward fifteen minutes.
But about the great jump.
The morning Of the day came, San
had arrived in town with the black bear
/ and the crowd rushed into hoehestel
from milss around. Twelve O'Clock wa wa
