Burglary at Milford.

During Saturday night May 18th, the
watch-case factory of Desire Bournique, ot
of Milford, Pa, was entered by burglars
and robbedof about 1000 worth of watches
and money. The entrance was effected
through the rear door, which was easily
broken open.
A large number of finished watches were
taken and some coin. Mr.. Bournique had
Saturday received about 81 300 in solid
coin, which, fortunately, he had that even
ing removed from the factory Several
unfinished watch-cases were lying on the
cases and were not taken 1t is thought
the burglars had become frightened

have taken place about three clock Sun

about that hour. Certain Port Jervis par
ties are suspected.-Port Jerris Gazette.

Erie'S Stock.

The New York Commercial Adrertiser,
a thoroughly reliable newspaper, of May
Is, contains the following regarding Erie
stock:
The heavy decline in London on Erie
stock is due to the large orders that went
from here yesterday and this morning to
resell on New York purchases of yesterday
and the day before. 1t is mentioned that
as much as $4,000 shares were placed on
the London market by cable from this
City.
An editorial article in the Tribune this
morning on the affairs of the Erie road,
carefully prepared and looking to the early
default on interest and bankruptcy of the
concern and the total loss of the present
capital stock of eighty-six millions is at
tributed to the inspiration of Mr.. Gould,
because of his supposed stockholding in that
paper We don't believe, however, that
Mr. Gould will wait for Erie stock to fall
below zero before buying the control for
the July election.

The Book of the Season.

We have received by the last mail a copy
of the first number of an illustrated publ
cation, which is being issued by Allen
Lane 4 Scott and J. W. Lauderbach, No
233 South Fifth street, Philadelphia.
The title of the work is IA Century
After, and its object is to convey, in an
entertaining and agreeable manner, by
means of superb illustrations, aided by
charming and piquant literary matter, an
idea Of the wonderful paogress Of Philadel-
phia and its sister cities Of the State OF
civilization and the attendant arts and
sciences, which has marked the growth of
the nation in It's first century of existence.
On glancing over the pages We confess to
a sense Of pleasurable surprise at the beau
ty and artistic merit of the illustrations
which adorn this elegant and seasonable
book. There is that in it which will amply
repay the time devoted to an examination
of its pictorial treasures, and the trifing
expenditure necessary to the ownership of
a work of intrinsic beauty and value. Here
is something that possession will not tire of
an inexhaustible fund of refined enjoy
ment From the foretaste which is here
given us, we hazard the opinion that the
future numbers will be eagerly looked for
in advance of publication, and that, when
completed, it will be not only a remarkable
book, but delightful souvnir of the Cen
tennial of American Independence.
The original contributions by Darley,
Moran, BchselI, Schell, Hamilton, Wood
ward, and other wel-known artists, will
consist of character, sketches and pictures
que views of scenery, (much of it associated
with incidents ofromance, possessing local
and national interest, taken from points in
Philadelphia and vicinity and throughout
the State The whole work. as announced
by the publishers, is intended to be a
Monument of American Art, Skill, and
Thoroughness.
Il is excellentIy printed on a toned paper
Of super6nc quality, the size of the page
being about 10 X II inches, and will be
published in fifteen semi-monthly parts, at
fifty cents each, and sold only to subscrib-
ers

The Scranton silk factory, founded some

interrupted prosperity, coming fully up to
the expectations of its projectors 1t has
materially improved in every department,
and its producing capacity has been in
