C.SpIpATEs.-In our advertising col.
nmus several gentlemen announce their
Intentions TO become candidates for vari-
ous county offices. NJ. f. Tarpey, the
well known and esteemed Secretary of
the Meadow Valley, is candidate for
County Clerk. Mr.. Tarpey's qualifica-
lions for the office are unquestionable,
and his genial qualities have endeared
him to q large circle of friends. j.. J.
Halpin, one of our prominent and res
pected merchants, is candidate for As.
SCISSOR. Mr.. Halpin has long been res
ident of and is thoroughly acquainted
with the county, and as thoroughly COM
petent and reliable. Mr.. Lichtenstein
another well known citizen, is q candi-
date for County Commissioner. He is a
thorough business man, and no doubt
would be useful public officer.
SELLING OFF.-S. Ashim & Bro. have
determined to close out their establish
ment in Phoebe, and are offering their
large and well selected stock OF gro
ceries, provisions and clothing at actual
cost. They will also dispose Of the real
estate, consisting of the well known
store, occupying commanding position
ON Main street, well fitted up, with a
large and commodious fire-proof cellar.
This closing out sale offers fine oppor-
tunity for an excellent investment and
bargains in merchandise, such as rarely
occurs.
wARMINo.-The Austin Reyille says
that political matters in Austin are very
quiet, in Phoebe that remark would also
apply until lately. A good deal of quiet
buzzing has been done for some time
past, but in the last few days things have
warmed up considerably and candidates
and their friends are stirring around in
good earnest. So far everything has
gone along pleasantly and We hope will
continue so to the end. Folks seldom
accomplish much by fretting. There is
nothing like keeping cool. whether sue
cessful or not.
RACE CoUEsE.-The Jockey Club have
been busily at work providing accommo-
dation for the horses that are to take
part in the races. Twelve good, roomy,
loose boxes have been provided, with
proper commences, so that the race nags
can be properly cared for. The Club
shows much public enterprise and liber-
atty in offering such large purses, and
we expect that the entries will be quite
numerous. What, with races, primaries
and other matters, Phoebe will begin to
look like her old self.
COMPLEMENTARY BENENIT.-On Mon.
day next the Phoebe Minstrels will give q
grand entertainment at Armory Hall fol-
the benefit OF d. W. Newman. The pro.
gramme will contain many novel fea.
lures, and is Of unusual excellence. Mr.
Newman has many warm friends in the
town, and we hope that they will all give
him the benefit of their presence on this
occasion.
THE concert and tabeleaux for the ben.
eft of the Episcopal Church will take
place on Wednesday evening next, the
9th inst. Tickets are now on sale at DR..
Lees drug store. The preparations fol
the Concert are being busily made, and
from what we can learn the entertain.
ment will be Of very meritorious and
superior character.
BOWLING ALLEy.-Davis and Steinbacl
have opened the Bowling Alley, know
as Gerrow's. Ten-pin rolling reduced t.
20 cents. The bar will be found wei
stocked with fine wines and liquors.
The party last evening was we'll at
tended ard passed off very pleasantly
Business engagements prevented US from
being present but for few minutes; bu
we saw enough to learn that the occa
sion was quite an enjoyable one.
