SOMERSET.
Allen & Totman have decided to rebuild a
brick block on the site of their two stores that
were burned at Fairfield.
BRYANT memorial dav was observed by the
Chautaqna Literary and Scientific Circle
of Fairfield village on Saturday evening
by a meeting at the residence of Mrs. J. +.
Nye.
The business industries of Fairfield, in
connection with the numbering business,
gives employment to over five hundred men.
This does not include men who are employed
in the logging camps. The usual quantity
of logs will be cut this season by the own
ers of the sawmills, although nearly all have
a large stock of-logs on hand, Lumber is
selling at better prices on account of low
water diminishing the amount of lumber
manufactured at the mills.
On Tuesday evening, Nov. 6, MIR. Au-
gustus Libby of New York, on visit to the
wooIen mill, Madison, gave an oyster sup
per and entertainment to the mill employees.
The entertainment consisted of singing, fol
lowed by the supper, which proved very ac'
ceptable. After the supper, speeches, In
tcrspersed it'll music, were made by Rev.
Mr. Mitchell, Messrs, Libby, Flint, Weston
and Mr.. Godspeed, the agent. In Mr. Libby
remaks he thanked the help for their faithful
ness during the past year, and for their good
work. All fully enjoyed the evening, and il
will be remembered with the greatest OF
pleasure. The business in the wooden mil
is at its height and orders ahead. The
principal goods manufactured are fiannels
strictly all wool. Mr.. Weston has beer
making some repairs on his saw mill, but
has it nearly completed.

ing through the attic OF her house, found a
large pan of meal. Thinking the meal good
and left there accidentally. she mixed it with

The horse was worth 500.

light, such as was shown at the Grand Army

makes a better light for stores and dwellings
than the more powerful ones. Messrs.
Holmes contemplated at first putting in ma

would supply their own works first, and then

nursery and tree company, of Rochester.
snd Van Walt was engaged in selling goods

cent, or one fifth. Hill! alleges that Van
Wal, bad received this commission on
seven sales fraudulently reported to him
That Van Walt had presented seven orders
for trees, signed by the supposed pur-
chaser, on which he paid him the commits
sion. When the trees arrived, the seven
gentlemen refused to take them and pro-
nounCed the orders fOrgeries. The goods
were thus left on Hills hands and be was
out the commissions. The total of Van
Waits commissions made but SIG 20 and
immediately Oil receiving II, he left the
city ana went 20 Cu!cdgO. Mt. Hill SW0re
out the WARRANT, Mi, h.was placed in Con-
stable St. Myi-s' Lands for service and as

PERSONNEL OF VAN WALT.
Public opinion may wrong Van Walt,
bur it is very severe on him. He has been
accused Of number OF crooked affairs, but
freed himself from all of them. In ap-
pearance he is good locking young mau,
with plausible manners and good address,
and his stock of good natured assurance
was unrivaled. BY marriage he was re-
specially connected, but has always borne
tie reputation of ne'er-do. well.

THE holiday trade haylnu now

THE holiday trade having now
fairly opened, and the all absorbing
topic in the minds of our people
being to know where to purchase
elegant Christmas presents, we
here answer the question by com.
nencing at the best first: Dillon
is unqusstionably the King Of the
Holiday Trade. His store would
make a crsdltabIs display for New
York City; and he not only has the
finest line of Fine Diamonds,
Watches and IsWsIry in the
city, but the largest ieweIry
establishment in West Virginia,
Eastern Ohio, or Western Penn
syIvania. Mr.. Dillon having had
sixteen years. practical expert
enCe in handling fine watches and
diamonds has thorough knowl-
edge of just what is required for
the Holiday Season. He handles
nothing but the finest novelties
known to the trade, and besides
controls the sole agency for the
following weII.known watches,
and which no other IsweIer in the
city can purchase, viz: The POT.
ter" watch of Geneva, finest in
The world; the "Lange" watch Of
Dresden; "Patek Phillippi & Co.,"
eersya; "vaChsron E. Constantine
Geneva: Rockford. Illinois, watch.
Persons desiring 10 purchase
fihs goods will find il advantageous
not only to have Mr.. DilIon's
advice in making their selections,
but to their interest to call and
compare goods and prices before
purchasing. His trip East this
Fall was made with the sole object
of selecting the finest novelties
that could be purchased for the
holiday season of 1888, and a visit
to his store will amply repay any
one who contsmplates making val.
liable purchases. His speciality is
fine single stones and matched
pairs of Diamonds.

Al the Play House,

Last evening at the Opera House was
given the first presentation in this city Of
the New Flying Dutchman, a romantic leg
endary drama in four acts. The inclement
weather kept many away who would have
otherwise been there, as there were many
seats sold that were not occupied. As il
was, an audience Of good proportions was
present and manifested considerable inter.
est in the play, which was put upon the
stage in very creditable manner and in.
terpreted by a competent company. The
drama is a peculiar and weird composition,
suggested as it is by the varied forms into
which this well-known legend has been
shaped by many authors, and there Is a
veil OF deep mystery surrounding the prin-
cipal character which is not lifted until
the last act. Thus the curiosity of
the audience is retained through.
out the play. Mr.. c. P. Flock
ton, in the character Of Philip Brock,
msde an excellent impression. He has a
commanding presence, good voice, and his
manner srd countenance are perfectly
suited to Il mysterious part he assumes.
he beers strong blance to the Dor
traits OF the celebrated English actor Henry
Irving. Miss Frances Bishop. as Madeline
Foster, ives effective, and Miss Anna ],
Carleton sustained their respective parts
well. The songs 81 Miss Carleton were
especially pleasing. The others in the
cast were all that could be expected. The
drama will be repeated this evening with a
matinee this afternoon, at both of which
performances crowded houses will doubt
Jess be present.

1t looks very much as though the long
spell Of beautif III weather is past and win
siderable quantity, yesterday, and the air
was rather wintry in temperature. Well,
its time for winter, fer Christmas is almost
here. Merchants are. complaining OF the
lingering tendency of fall and are anxiously
awaiting the coolness which now gives in
diCations Of coming. 4 Christmas in Octo-
her is not exactly what we are accustomed
to and the warm weather threatens to spoil
the turkey our religious reporter drew at
