J. Davis & Son

Have just received, positively, the
largest lot Of hollow-ware that ever
came to Manchester at any one time,
and what is more they are selling it
at prices that can't be beat any
where around here. We are also
selling copper, brass, lead pipe and
pumps at greatly reduced prices.
Our line of stoves is now complete
Our No. 8 LEADER and FAME cook
stoves speak for themselves. Our
line of Parlor and Box Stoves are
all that can be desired. But we wish
particularly to speak in favor Of our
NEW REGENT PARLOR COOK
COAL STOVE, which for elegance
Of design cannot be surpassed. They
are made of four sizes with oven,
and five without, and as far as its
working qualities are concerned we
know that they never, as yet, have
been beaten. Call in when you
come this way and see this new par
lor coal stove and hollow-ware which
you have just read about. II you
do not buy it will be just the same
with us.
We wish now to call the attention
of Merchants and Dealers in tin
ware and stove pipe to the fact that
we have just introduced new fea-
ture in the line of our business
that of wholesaling tinware and
stove pipe at such prices and such
quality of goods that we shall not
fail to meet their approval and re
ceive our share of their patronage.
Our facilities for doing job work,
tin roofing and eyetroughing, &c,
arc mere ample than ever. When
you are making a bargain with us
depend upon it we will do by you
just what we say We will.
Al orders or inquiries by tele-
graph or mail will be thankfully re.
ceiyed and promptly answered.
Thankful for past fayors and patron.

HURT ON THEJ. & B. ROAD.

The Sussex Journal says:-On Wednes-
day. the last south bound train on j. &
B. road picked up man, near Glendale
station, who was injured by the early
train. The mans name is John Allen,
an Irishman by birth, and recently came
from England. He was one Of the party
that lodged in the square on Tuesday
night. He says that ne was asleep on
the side Of the track and that the COW
catcher struck his face and head, both
Of which are badly lacerated, and his
arm and shoulder bruised. The proba-
bilities are that he fell IN trying to board
the train while 1t was running past or
fell from the platform. The wounded
man was carried to the office Of Dr.
Joseph B. NAPLES and the doctor dressed
his wounds. He was kept by Sheriff
Ellis At the jail Wednesday night and
sent to the Almshouse ON Thursday
English workmen are given free pas
sage to America, and the number of un-
employed laborers in that country is
alarmingly growing larger. Allen was a
dead-head passenger, and landed at
Lewes on Monday. It is thought that
he will not recover.
