VINcENTowN AND VICINITY
The travelling public can testify,
as they undoubtedly would have done
in the case Of Mr.. Kumpf for license
recently, bad they have had an oppor-
tunity to do so, but to those whe stay
at home it is no more than natural
that all interest should be lost in re-
gard to it. Undoubtedly too much
Judgment cannot be used in the licen-
sing Of hotels throughout the county,
and at the same time it is "gaping at
gnat and swallipg camep 10 the
manner that it has been recently con-
Quoted. This is not "bosh" but the
opinion Of the general public. A few
days ago we had occasion to stop at
the hotel of Theodore Small at Flyatt.
Being caught 10 snow storm we con-
cluded to stop over night and take
the chances regarding accommoda-
tious. The chances proved unusually
favorable,and having travelled through
the "pines" and roughed it before, we
have some knowledge Of the necessi-
ties required. A better table and
better bed could not be found among
the so-called No. hotels in this part
of Jerseys. And as the old hunter
dropped in and told his story Of the
recent capture of coons and foxes, it
enlivened the occasion, and the clock
soon told the hour of IL, and with
"night-cap" 10 hand there was gen.
eral bidding of good night. Being
bent on a fishing excursion we went
to the pond of George Taylor, known
as the old Indian Mill pond, and never
was the weather more unfavorable for
fishing, thu extreme cold driving us
almost from the pond to the shore,
where we anticipated building Ere
But before we had built the fire q
messenger came to the pond with
printed circular, which had undoubt-
eddy been issued when the pond was
stocked by the State, and the three
years limit for penalty to be paid for
fishing therein expired over one year
ago. As the boy stated firmly that
the notice came from Mr. Taylor We
sent our compliments with the state
ment that we would leave immediate
ly, which we did. Now for the 80
called Finger" and Taylor, we men,
tion the following law covering ponds
that have been stocked: 1.-The State
does not stock any pond for the bene-
fit of any Zone" individual. At the
expiration of three years it becomes
public property 10 regard to fishing,
and no individual" can control
it. We don't propose to furnish
Finger with brains but we can give
him law on the point.

The "Calathumpian Band" went
