The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1882-08-23

in the Presbyterian Church in this city,
last Sunday.
We are glad to learn that DR.. c. W..
Larson, of Ringoes, whose dangerous
illness from blood poisoning we mention
ed last week, has 50 far improved as to be
thought cut danger.
Stockton has been without harness
shop for some months, owing to the re-
moval of Mr.. G. Wolverton to Trenton,
but gentleman from Reaville has now
taken up his residence there and opened
new shop.
Van Amburg, Frost. Stone & Co. IS
circus, which exhibited here on last Mon
day drew small audiences. The street
parade was considerably below the ex-
pectations excited by the bills The
menagerie was small, but the circus per-
Torrance is said to have been fair.
Prof. Field, formerly of Philadelphia,
began class in singing and sight-reading
in the Baptist Church, in this city, last
evening. The professor claims that by
his system any person of ordinary intell-
gence can learn to read ordinary church
music at sight in few lessons. Any
person may join the class for small fee.
Those who do not have time or the
inclination to go to the Eagle Picnic,
should help the fire laddies along by pur-
chasing ticket. For sale at Goldman's.
Mr. Thomas Hoagland, an old Demo
cratic farmer of Hunterdon county, is
raising blackberries nearly as large as
guinea eggs.
So say an exchange. We can't exactly
see what connection the mans politics
has with the raising of blackberries. Do
blackberries usually grow of smaller size
for Democrats than Republicans, or is it
usual for Democrat to draw the color
line ON berries as well as on men9
The organs sold by c. w. Hetzel, of
Baptisttown, N. j., give good satisfaction,
because they are carefully selected by an
experienced dealer. Mr.. II. sends organs
not only to all parts of New Jersey, but
to other states. His sales are quite ex-
tensiye, because he sells good Instruments
at low figures.
Lafayette Post, G.. A. R., of Easton,
had the largest picnic of the season on
Friday last at Packer Island, near Flem-
ington. A member of the Post who
called on us said there were twenty-six
carloads came down. and that they had
sold over eighteen hundred tickets. The
greater part of them seemed to be orderly
and well-behaved persons, and spent the
day pleasantly on the Island, being visited
by large numbers from our town and the
surrounding country Humterdon Re
publican.
The Elizabeth Journal says Some
of the employees at the Central car shops
are quite jubilant over the extraordinary
achievement of two car carpenters from
Lambertville. They applied to II.
Dennis, foreman of the coal and freight
car repair department, for employment,
representing that they could build com
plete car in day. On Friday the oppor-
tunity for test of their skill and speed
was given them and they succeeded in
less than ten hours in completing six
ton coal car, something never before ac-
complished in the shop by two men,
Robbins 1890 Tonic will cure Chills.
Only &C.,, at New Hope Drug Store.
1t is said that Congressman Harris ar
ranged with certain Democrat in this
city, to manipulate the Lambertville dele
CATION in his favor. Whetherh he furnished
any "solid' arguments for the contest we
are not informed, but as some of the Lam
bertville delegation went from here anti.
Harris men and become his converts be-
fore they came home again, we presume
the question is an open one. The Han
terdon Democrat openly charges that some
of the Raritan delegation betray their
constituents, and prominent Democrat
who is well posted in the inner workings
of the party machinery, charged openly
last week that Harris would not have been
re-nom mated had it not have been for the
use of money among delegates.
IS. F. g. A. M. Is Shamalia's Fever &
Ague Mixture, flrst-class remedy for
chills.
The funeral services of W. II. Will
hanson, of Pennington, were held in the
Baptist Church, In Pennington, on Thurs
day morning last. A large number Of
friends and relatives were present. Rev.
George Young preached the sermon.
Rev. Mr. Mick, of Lambertville, and
Rev. DIR. Mott, of Pennington, assisted in
the services. The words upon which Mr.
Young based his remarks, which were
we'll fitting the occasion, were those found
in the 9th Psalm and 4th verse What
is man y =. Interment was in Prospect
Hill Cemetery, beside the once idol Of his
heart, an only daughter. The pail bear
ers were his old friends and associates
r. J. Killgore, A. J. Scarborough, Charles
Roberts, Samuel B. Pickell, A. II. Lands
and Chester Observation-Disclosures
Adcertiser.
