Improvements at the o. +. Church.
For two or more weeks the middle
OctOraro church has teen under REPAIRS
The walls have been cemented outside and
calcimined inside and all the woodwork
repainted new lamps will be put in and
other changes which will give to the house
more OF a modern look and impart to it 9
comfort which was wanting il many re
spccts. The burying ground has beer
enlarged aud a new building for the sexton
is in contemplation, instead Of the dilapi
dated one story tumble-down log house
used for that purpose. Tho L. p. congre
CATION have also commenced to add to the
convenience Of their ministers by erecting
a parsonage on the church grounds; the
trees ON the grounds were sold off at puD
lie sale on the 10 inst.
Brisbin SkileS is expected to become
the proprietor of the Nine Points hotel the
coming spring.
Enoch Passmore, now proprietor OF the
Green Tree hotel, will take the kinzer's
hotel, and it is said, on good authority,
that Harrison Graham will take Passmore'
place at Green Tree.
John McAllister, for years we'll known
in and around Georgetown, and whose
parents are among the old resiuents OF this
village, was united for better or for worse
ON the Sth inst, to Miss Findley, o.
Ph9nixville. The ceremony was quietly
performed at McAllister's S residence among
a few of their most intimate friends, by
Mr.. Yerkes, pastor of the NJ. f. church.
Mr.. Charles Wright has built a house
near White Hall and in close proximity to
two others lately built by Mr.. Shube art
Mr.. HeidlebauSh White Hall will sool
be entitled to the dignity of village and
should the Nickel Mines continue to be as
prosperous as they now appear to be nC
doubt more houses will be built. Mr.
Wright has for many years been al EN-
ployee at the mines.
Will E. Reed, sou of B. F. Reed, one o.
the most robust of Bart's youths, has
shaken the dust Of "idle Bart" from Of
his sandals and boldly marched out into
the cold, friendlcss world, with the inten
| tion of hoeing his own row, or breaking
the hoe. He was gOod.hearted, though
| somewhat boisterOus young man, and viii
be missed during the winter from many :
jOvial company; but perhaps, it's for th'
| best all his friends wish him we'll, an(
those who do not wish him vel. he nce(
care nothing about.
Herbert Pickel, another OF the sample
| of Bart's youth, has also left here and is
we believe, now employed in Philadelphia
Both Reed and Pickel are six footcrs an(
| tip the beam at near 1SO. They will b,
found of value to some one who wants TX
employ young men of muscle.
The late damp spells have enabled to
bacco growers to get largo portion o.
their crops off the poles, and some have
most of it ready for market. no buyer
are among us yet, and they arc not looked
for until after the holidays. Martin s
Fritz are making a few cautious pur
chases ranging in price from IA to % fo
wrappers, for seconds, 2 for filters
They sold to Thomas Gonzales, Of Brook
lyn, N. Y, 100 cases on private terms.
Not long since Frank Smith, of tho Fac
tory Row, had mouse-colored dog sen
to him from the city, and was very proud
| of him, but the mouse. colored dog ot be
ing discreet enough for our country ways
got among some of Nimrod Georges
poultry, and George treated him to a shov
Of his ability to handle three dollar gun
The mouse. colored dog was buried b!
Frank with the severest malediction
against George.
