audience behaved disgracefully, hootlng

disgusting threats. Weber's overture

fate, so deep seated is the hate which
the French heart bears toward Germany

WORTHLESS ADyERTIsINe.-Tb Yonkers
Gazette utters much truth in the following
Many business men refuse to advertise in a
legitimate way-that is, through the news
papers, because, as they assert, they can not
afford to pay the price charged by said news
papers. But let stranger enter the city with
some new advertising dodge-something alb
solutely worthless--and he will find plenty of
men to accept his terms because they are so
extremely low. Contracts with such parties
are never half fulfilled, and money thus spent
is wasted The Watertown Despatch gets of
the following good one on this class of penny
wise individuals "srhe man who canyasses
for advertisements to be printed on rags to
wrap up sore fingers is expected to be in town
in few days. Also, the toothpick adver-
tiser. Our enterprsing merchants will prob
ably patronize them extensively, and then
wonder why people will go to Syracuse to
buy dry goods and clothing"

e7s- One day last week, as Mr.. Frank Nay
lor, of Sands Corner, accompanied by Mr..
Seigelfuss, of Quakertown, was descending
the hill, near the premises of Mr.. Charles At
kinson, in Solebury, Mr.. SIS horse resorted to
little strategy--clearing away the dash
board of the wagon to which he was attached,
bringing his hind feet into requisition, and
showing the boys that they could not have
their own way altogether. Frank narrowly
escaped being kicked by the ANIMAL and see
ing that it was matter over which he had no
control, made hasty exit from the rear OF
the wagon. Mr.. S. remained in the wagon
until 1T was run into the bank, at the road
side, and upset. He was not much hurt,
however. The wagon was considerably dam
aged. The cause of the trouble is attributed
to the running of the wagon upon the ami
malls heels.

DECORATION DAy.--The following general

In accordance with the rules and regulations
of the Grand Army of the Republic, Tuesday,
May 30 will be observed as Memorial Day.
to decorate with fitting ceremonies the graves
of our fallen comrades. In this Centennial
year, when each true patriot hopes to see the
proofs of peace and good will, and we meet as a
united people to commemorate Che events
connected with the birth of our nation, the
memories of our dead comrades, whose lives
were required for the establishment of that
poacc, should be very near our hearts and
command our choicest offerings. The mode
in which these ceremonies may be conducted
is left to the judgment of Posts, but it is sug-
gested that they invite the cooperation Of
other organizations and of the public gen.
orally. 1t is hoped the custom of preceding
years of planting flowers at the graves will be
generally observed. Where no Posts of the
Grand Army are established citizens are
earnestly requested TO arrange for the proper
observance of the day, that the grave of each
dead soldier and sailor may be appropriately
honored.

After visiting the Centennial exhibition
go to the next biggest show--Titus' Furni-

Rev. B. C. Morse for some years pastor
of the Baptist Church of Croton, and 70,
some months past at Marlboro, in this State,
died at the latter place on Saturday, April
Goth, at the age of sixty-fve years. He was
born at Railway, and was for some time a
member of the Presbyterian Church, Of which
his father was an honored elder. After
changing his UNCONVENTIONAL convictions he
entered Madison University, and safterward
the Seminary at Hamilton where be pursued
ais theological studies.S He was ordained at
Lyons Farms, N. J., in 1888 or $780, and has
since then been settled over some half dozen
Churches in the middle States, Ohio and In
diana. He was an excellent preacher a
thoroughly reliable and upright man, and a
pastor under whom many hundreds of con-
verts were brought into Christ's Church. He
leaves wife and three children to whom re-
mains legacy more precious than silver or
gold-the memory Of a devout, useful, un-
selfish life .--Hunterdon Democrat.
One of the proofs Of the irregular tenn
perature of our climate has been plainly ex-
hibited during the past week or ten days.
The change is radical one. We are COM
PEELED to evacuate ourovercoats and seek COM
fort in garments constructed of lighter mate
rial.
The Common Council can scarcely find a
plausible excuse to justify themselves for re-
pealing the act to license wholesale liquor
dealers. There is no reason why persons
should not pay a license for selling by whole
sale. In fact, there is more reason why they
should pay than retailers, for retailers are sup
pose to render some benefit to the community
by entertaining travellers, &c. Besides, the
wholesale groggery needs to be under legal
control quite as much as the retail bar. The
fact is, the wholesale groggery almost always
is a secret retail drinking place. In proof of
this, our citizens have only to call to mind
those that formerly existed here, to establish
this assertion. Further, it is stated that ON
last Saturday night, considerable drunkenness
and riotous conduct were seen at a certain
wholesale establishment recently opened
in our city. BY abolishing the ordinance the
Council have permitted, Tom, Dick and
Harry to sell at wholesale land secretly at re-
tail--and not very secretly either) without
RS raint and thus perpetrating an injustice on
those who have taken out licenses at retail,
and who have a just claim to be protected
from opposition. AS they pay for the exclu-
sive privilege of making drunkards, the au-
thority that grants them the privilege should
protect them in its exercise.

e3Y- Mr.. William Worthington, of Rabbit
Run, above New Hope, had a little excite.
ment of his own, in the shape of runaway,
a few days ago. lie was starting out for o.
G. Stover's mill, in New Hope, with spirit
ed stecd attached to his new spring truck y
wagon. In passing through the gateway at
the end of the lane leading from his house
to the main road, the strap holding the names
to the collar around the horses neck came nm
fastened. The animal, of course, made the
best of circumstances, and became unman-
ageable consequently, goodly portion of
the harness was torn off and the wagon run
into a large stone-heap and upset. Mr.. W.
remained in the vehicle until it was about
collding with the pile Of stones, when he
sprang hastily out, landing on the opposite
side of the obstruction, bruising himself con-
siderably. Notwithstanding all this, he held
OH to the ribbons =" firmly, and soon after
gaining his equilibrium, seized the horse by
the bride bit, and brought him to an under
standing The wagon cover was torn, the
shafts broken, harness torn to fragments, and
one spring badly shattered. lie attached the
frightened animal to another wagon and pro-
ceeded to the MILL as though nothing in par.
ticulary had happened.
