OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE

Rev. DR.. Spaulding, of York, oficiated
yesterday in St. Paurs Episcopal church.
Rev. Richard c. Soaring, pastor of the
church, was in attendance at the church
convention.
The Citizens band will give dance in
Desch's hall on Friday evening, the 18th

The mercury points to 39o. If that
Dakota wave reaches here tonight there
will he a big fall.
Sleighing is still good despite all the re-

horse, however, is great.
Edward r. Black, of the Pennsylvania
railroad is in town to-day.
Engine No. 100 is in the shop. No. 526
is running the jerk-water.
Freight was very heavy last night. 1t
always is ON Sunday night. During the
week the motive mower was inadequate to
the demand.
Some of our ministers appear to take a
delight in denouncing the Whist club,
which was recently formed here. Prob
ably the members of the club are old
enough and have mature judgment enough
to decide this matter for themselves and
need no dictation from the church.
A man to preserve his equilibrium to-
day is compelled to use more than Ordi-
nary precaution. The pavemehts are as
slippery as can be with a covering of sleet,
which fell last night, and as consequence
the walking is anything but good.
The regular meeting meeting of the
teacherss' institute, which should have
been held on Saturday last, was postponed
until next Saturday, by reason Of tine late
ness of the issuing of the programme Of
exercises.
Annie, daughter of William Reese, died

Protracted services will lie held during

services generally attract large congrega-
tiOns.

The connections with the new tracks of
the Pennsylvania railroad company be-
tween Downingtown and Glenloch will be
made in very short time. The recent
heavy snow, which in that locality was
much heavier than here, delayed work coll
sidcrably, or the connection, it is thought,
would have been made before this. When
the new line is opened the track sbetween
the points named will he much straiglter
than they now are and many curves, hard
to turn by heavily loaded freight trains,
ON the steeD grade. will be avoided. The
sooner the connections are made the better
will the freight men be satisfied.

Attempted burglary.


\ bold attempt at burglary was made
at Lanes store, East King street, late Fri
day night or early Saturday morning,
though tho marks of the burglar were not
noticed until late Saturday afternoon.
All the doors and windows in the rear of
Lanes store are iron-clad with boiler iron
and secured inside with heavy wrought
iron bolts. 1t was one of these doors that
the burglar attacked, and he appears to
have been we'll supplied with tools, for
after bending and twisting the iron
sheatling in all directions hc succeeded
in breaking the heavy bolts and
forcing the door. But evidently he was
not acquainted with the premises, for after
all his labor he had only succeeded in get
ting into the feather room, a small, square,
brick structure, adjoining the main build
ing, but having no entrance into it. The
burglar, discovering his mistake, appears to
have made an attempt to force the door of
IA similar brick building OH the opposite
side of the rear door of the store, but did
not succeed, and would have got nothing
for his trouble had he succeeded, as the
room contained nothing but straw. The
burglar evidently thought that one Of
these doors led into the basement of the
main building. and once in the basement it
would have been an easy matter to get
into the store above.
