-PEDRICKTOWN NOTES.

The spirit of progress is manifestlng 1t.
selfinour heretofore undemonstrative and
conservative town. We have actually had
al enthusiastic public meeting to consid-
Ell the question Of a Fourth of July Cele-
bration, and after the assembled wisdom
had deliberated in a manner suitable to
the important question, a committee OF
our most influential and public-spirited
mer was appointed to make all necessary
arrangements. DR.. J. b. Ware, Hon. c.. 5.
Plummer, John Corson Esq, and S NJ.
Hunt, Esq, constitute the committee
Mosacca Band will furnish the music
Who the orator of the day will be, l have
not yet learned, and | do not suppose the
honorable committee need any suggestion
from Plod. Nevertheless; as | / nave an in
terest in the affair, and desire it to eclipse
all others in this section; | take the hber-
to express publicly nay opinion. | do not
think the committee can make a wiser Sc
lection than our former townsman, Rev j
f. Price. His scholarly ability cannot be
| questioned. His address before the Legis-
lature last winter, was pronounced by
those who heard it a mastery production.
There is no doubt but that the Rev. Cen
tlemen may be secured if timely applica-
ton is made. What say yon gentlemen?
an a multitude of counsellors there is
wisdom" Speak out.
What might have proved a serious &C
cident occurred at the station the other
day. The hackman undertook to cross
the track while the train lay at the sta
ton. The escaping steam frightened the
horse, and in shieing he ran into Ped
rick's shop throwing the driver and a
passenger out, fortunately they we've not
injured. The horse ran away and broke
the wagon, but his horseslip es saped in
jury.
Albert Stetser is treating his residence
to a coat of paint which adds very much
to it's appearance, and is an evidence OF
his property in his business to which lac
SO ~assidously deyotes all his energies.
Any information concerning Novus
Homo will be thankfully received at my
headquarters corner of-and-street

THE New York Democratic nomina-
tions are encouraging to mayors and to
bachelors. The candidates for governor
and lieutenant governor are the mayors
of the cities in which they live and are
both bachelors. They are young men,
too, for their high places, being forty five
and thirty-eight years old, respectively.
They probably have not yet found time
to get married, but now that they are to
be public servants it will be becoming in
them to put on the other yoke. There
nominations and that of Controller Pat
tison in this state are alike in the promo
tion they give to public officers. 1t is a
step in the direction of civil service re-
form and quite a good idea to select
for high public trusts men who have
already deserved we'll in less-elevated
offices. From mayor to governor is a
very good step.

A MINISTER'S DEPARTURE.


DR.. H. H.. Wells says Good-by to the Mount
Joy PresbyteriAns.
Rev. DR.. II. H. Wells, of Willoughby,
Ohio, preached his farewell sermon at the
Presbyterian church, Mt. Joy, on Friday
evening. The first sermon of his course
was delivered on Sunday evening of last
week, which was followed every evening,
except Saturday, by interesting discourses.
HE subject last night was, The emo
tiOnal element in Christian experiences
analysed" based on the text: Matthew
ri, 29-"Take my yoke upon you, and
learn of me-" The speaker was sorry to
criticisc many of his Christian friends.
He was particularly severe ON exasger
ated Christian experience. He believes
there are two types of fconversiOn-the one
instantaneous, the other gradual. These
moods depend on the faith the penitent
have in God. He who has implici: and
immediate faith, his change of heart will
be like flash but then one who has
conversion will be gradual. Although
The services throughout were well at
was manifested.
After The meeting last evening in re-
sponse to an invitation from the pastor of
the church, Rev. G. B. Whitcomb, many
members and friends of the church went
to his residence to spend an hour in social
intercourse with tho visiting members.
There was vocal and instrumental music
and two short parting addresses by Rev.
WhitcOmb and DIR. Wells. DR.. Wells left
this morning for the West, and during his
short stay, made many attchments which
were reluctantly broken.

Tom does not appreciate our eloquent
Brosius evidently q; but nevertheless he
would make a very respectable congress

orally good intentions as he is not to

much, but it is almost pity he can't

What tho Herald says Of the Latest Reputed
Scheme Of tho New York millionaire
MOnODOl1st.

What the Herald Says OF tho Latest Repured
Scheme Of tho New York millionaire
MonopOlist.
The New York Herald editOrially dis
cusses the turn which affairs have recently
taken in the conduct of the New York
associated press. 1t says that Jay Gould
"proposed to amalgamate the Western
Union telegraph company, which he con-
trolls, with the associated press to destroy
the organization of the latter and
make the employees of the telegraph
company, his own servants-that is
to say-the collectors of news for
tho papers. While he could control but
three of the journals forming the asso-
ciated press this scheme of course halted !;
but at the August meeting Of the asso-
citation he was enabled by the vote of the
Sun, which had until then, in common
with tho Herald, Times and Journal Of
Commerce, opposed his plans to strike his
first blow by discharging the executive
committee from the further consideration
of its relation with the Western company.
From this, therefore, it may apparently be
fairly inferred that Mr.. Gould now con-
trolls four of the seven papers that consti-
tute tho association"

RQughlY Handled.

A respectable looking but somewhat TO-
toxicated man, from the vicinity of tho
Nickel Mines, became very abusive to the
conductor of passenger train in the Penn
sylvania railroad depot, because the con.
ductor would not allow him and his wife
to get aboard the cars-the reason for the
refusal being that the train did not stop
at the station at which the couple wanted
to get off. So violent did he become that
he was taken into custody by two police
men who put tho nippers ON him and
cudgeled him before they could get him
to the station house. This morning he
was taken before Alderman McConomy,
where he paid his fine and costs and was

A GREEN TKUTTEK SOLD.

sho is Bought for $4,000 by MIR. Kocka-
feller-A Seven-year-Old's Time.
Tho best green trotter of tho year, the
black mare Cleora, was sold to Mr.. Rocka-
feller, of New York, one Of the standard
oil family, for $4,000. Cleora is seven
years old, by Menelaus, by Rysdyk's Ham
blctOnian, and her dam by MambrinO, and
was bred and raised by Mr.. Morris, of
Beoria, who brought her and entered
her in the races at the Chicago horse fair.
She won tho $40 purse last Saturday /;
her best time being 2::s24s, but in the 2::3'3
class she was cut loose and won with the
greatest ease in three strait heats, in
2:211, 2:2144 and 21Sa. It was this extra
ordinary performance for mare without
a record that prompted Mr.. Rockefeller
to make the purchase. From her way of
going, her tremendous turn of speed and
her extraordinary staying powers, Cleora
is thought by turfmen generally to be the
most sensational and valuable trOtting
of the year.
