The good people of Sand Brook have
lately been holding a series of religious meet
ings which have been g.eatly disturbed by
the rude actions of number OF ill-mannered
young men and boys, who have hooted and
howled about the houses in which the meet
ings were held thrown snow-bals through the
windows, and cut up all sorts of unlawful
and rowdyish capers. An old gentleman who
was teaching the art of writing IN the neigh
borhood was also grossly assaulted by the
gang of desperadoes, and he had to knock
one or two of them down. But what is want
ed to quiet the hoodlums and to teach them
better manners, is the strong arm of the law.
The Hunterdon Democrat states that citi-
zen of Sand Brook came to Pennington last
week, and took counsel with the authorities.
A lot of names were handed in, and the pros
poets are that the next grand jury will be call
ed upon to settle their score. In looking ov-
err the list, and reading the charge, Sheriff
Beldon fairly ached with anxiety to go right
down to Sand Brook and arrest the whole
party.

Mr.. EDITOR AS there have been consid-
cradle reflections cast upon some of our pres
ent city officers, through the columns of the
Beacon, allow me, if you please, small space
in your valuable paper to say word, not
particularly in behalf Of them, but merely to
call the attention of the parties who have TAX
ca such an interest in the welfare of our city.
While they may watch the actions of the diff
ferent Committees and the doings of Council
in general this particular term, wouldn't it be
well for them, as they have taken the trouble
upon themselves, to investigate the proceed
;scs of some of the ex-office holders and not
attam,,. to censure those who are still in office
and likely to retire from it with credit and
due respect from their constituents. Yes,
MIR. Editor, in speaking OF the indictments
found against the Phillipsburg Councilmen,
there is nothing that appreciate more than
70 see men who fater in such offices brought
TO Justice and dealt with to the full extent Of
the law, but If am not mistaken they hap
pen to be all ex-office holders, and as this
question has got to such pitch. wouldn't it
be well for the parties interested to suggest
the calling of meeting of the citizens and
appoint Committee to examine the records
Of our ex-officials, and then, perhaps. we
would have something to talk about instead
of assailing the characters of those who, If
the truth were known, would stand in the es-
timatiop of the public with as much fidelity
as those who pretend to take the pains to
show the inconsistency of the parties they
have reference to.

Last Friday, Richard Runkle, farmer
who lived two miles from Hopewell, commit
ted suicide by hanging himself in his barn.
lie took long silk neck-tie and fastened it to
the rafters, and then put his neck in the
moose. Even with this, it was necessary to
get down upon bis knees in order to commit
the deed. When his body was found, at
about five O'Clock in the afternoon, life bad
evidently been extinct for some time. He
had acted. strangely for some days, and he was
no doubt insane at the time. His age was
about so years. He leaves family.

Jacob Mains, lad living on Perry street,
found few days since two coins in an old
cellar near this city. They were each near
the size Of an old copper cent On one of
these coins, on one side, was the N. ]. coat of
arms and surrounded by the words " Nova
Csesaraan5a Is. On ,tkeether side a shield.
The other piece was larger with the same in
scription, with date of 1887. The other side
was too much corroded to make out what was
on it. Each seemed to be of a copper COM
position.

BLUE BIRDs.-It appears that all the blue
birds did not leave Nv Hope when Winter
set in. A few days ago, Mr.. Edward Pickett
discovered that four birds of that species had
er-boards and warm room in his house.
They had regular way of entrance from the
outside. Mr.. Pickett was as much pleased as
be was surprised to know that the little birds
were contented to brave the perils of Winter
in order to be his guests.
