over and housed, and sinners are not all
saved, although Mother Shipton says that
"the world TO an end will come In 1881 :"
Tho farmers Of this part of the county
rejoice in barns well filled with hay and
grain. Every farmer had good crop Of
grain One of tho Heckman's, living near
Penn Hall, expects 10 thrash about 1900
bushels of wheat. Tho corn crop will be-
light, as the dry weather il almost burn.
ing 1t up,
On the 4th the valley from Centre Hall
west and the northern section Of the coun-
ty had Il heavy rain, but in the eastern
part of Penns valley there has been no
rain since that long rAiny spell of last
spring, except couple of sprinklings,
which did not last long enough 70 lay the
dust. We want rain badly. Where is
Vennor that he don't send us some2
Mr.. /. j. Genoble has hands at work
excavating the cellar for that big hotel,
and at the planning mill of Messrs Philips
* Krape stand huge stacks of boards ready
to be worked up into flooring and siding
The building will be 100 feet long by As
feet broad. Mr.. Grenoble informs me he
had applications enough TO have filled the
hotel with boardcrs this summer, If it had
only been ready.
Mr. VIM. Rarick has purchased two lots
from Mr.. Grenoblc, on which he purposes
erecting Il large double house this inll or
next summer.
Mr.. Shocks large house is up and ready
for the roof, 1t will be a plank house,
wcathsrboardcd in imitation Of brick, thus
giving it the appearance Of brick house
The pile Of stone for Robert Duncan's
new store building is daily growing larger,
and Robert would like 10 have them plant
cd but mason work is plenty and masons
are scarce, except F. and a. Masons, and
they don't generally know much about
stone dressing and laying.
George Miller, proprietor Of the Spring
Mills hotel, has several boardcrs from
Washington City.
Mrs. Bancroft, Of Philadelphia, and own
or Of the property formerly known as the
Duncan Mile, Is ru'ticating with her broth
er, Mr Runk. Mrs. Bancroft has made
.cveral donations Of books, cards, &c, to
the Spring Mills Sabbath.school during
the past year.
one Of our cltzcus has fallen heir 10
$1,000 fortune through the death Of his
s1y,ct Another person informed me yea
terday that oHe Of his subjects had handed
IN her oheckf So much Tor speculative
insurance. On the other hand many are
complaining Of the heavy assessments, \
reliable citizen told me one day lAsi week,
that his Assessments in the Southern Penn
sylyania, Of York, on a s., 900 policy, have
averaged about Slj per month.
'Wcll | must bring my letter 70 a close,
but before doing 20 permit me to again
call the attention Of your readers to our
candidate for Register, Mr.. r Il. Jamison.
Our German citizens OF Brush and Peuns
yallics would like 10 see him nominated
for that Office, because he can speak the
German language They complain Of the
difficulties they met with when irAnsAc,ing
business with former Registers on account
Of their not being able TO speak German
II Mcssrs. MoClain or Furey can Eproch
German, let Us hear from them, As We
Penns Valley Dutch want Register, and
Commissioner too, who IL he cannot "spit
on his hands in six different language
like the Dcadwood justice, can at least talk
TO US in our "Muiier Spraeh." Another
claim that We have for Mr.. Jamson Is,
the fact that while Gregg has been polling
huge Democratic mAjoriiies during many
pas, years, she has had a very small share
OF the public Offices.
We have candidate for Sheriff, but as
the northern section will claim that officer !
this time, we hope the banner township |
will at least get the Register. Hoping the |
voters Of both sections Of the county will !
remember the banner township and vote |
for Tom close for this time. =.
