Yesterday we visited the new tun-

The tunnel going west enters near
VOsburg and terminates near MehOOp-

will save about five miles going around
the mountain. A double set of hands
working day and night, have peue-
trated some 400 feet at each end.
Stationary engines for cOmpressing
air by which all the drills are worked,
aud working the Electric apparatus
by which the tunnel is lighted, are
at each entrance. Solid
rock which will probably require little
or no arching will be penetrated its
whole length, which is for a double
track. Through the pOliteness of the
men we were permitted to enter and
go as far as the west end excavation
went. The atmosphere had peculiar

most deafening.

LAST week. and the early part of this
was the first serious period in the cam
ming and evapOrating business in this
part of Delaware. The heavy rain fol-
lowed by damp close weather made
the SmOck peaches come on with a
rush, and this was also the height of
the tomato season, which caused glut
at the factories. Many places worked
day and night forces, and did not then
save all of the fruit as it came in. 9th
ers spipped their peaches to the cities,
where = hey netted them about 80 cents
per basket, aud yet many ions of SPLEEN
did tomatoes rOtted. Mr.. J. Lowery
purchased load weighing over ton,
for 81, and others We're compelled to
throw their loads away by the road
side; but this is all over now, as the
last peaches are delivered and the can
ncries can manipulate all the toma-
toes.

IN an interesting article The Kingston
Freeman gives some careful estimates
about the crops of the Hudson River
counties, Nsw York, which it says as
a whole will be fully up to the average,
The oat crop is about an average in
quality and quantity The yield of
potatoes is good, though in some sec
tiOns the patches have been attacked
with wireworms. New potatoes are
now selling as low as 40 cents a bushel
in number of farming districts. The
corn crop is a fair one, though the re-
cent heavy frost nipped many acres
badly, back from the river. Buck
wheat was also bitten, and the crop in
one or two sections has been injured
by the dry weather. The aggregate
yield, however, will be fair. The crop
of apples is the most meagre in years,
and the yield as whole viii be less
than One-third of an average one.
Pears, especially the Bartletts, have
yielded the most prolific harvest in
Milford chronicle., 1883-09-21

many summers; those yet to be
shipped are large in size, juicy and
generally very fine Plums gave fair
yield. Strawberries did well, and the
returns received for raspberries and
other small fruits were remunerative,
as whole, to the producers. Ship
ments from the teeming Concord grape
vineyards along the valley will COM
mence this week. The cool weather
has retarded the early ripening of the
fruit. The dry weather has proved fa-
vOrable to the vines. Wet weather
causes the "berries" to crack open at
the shoulder, and then they drop off
on the ground. No signs whatever of
cracking" have appeared and no
drop" at all is looked for this fall.
The yield will be immense. What the
growers will do with them all is a puz-
zle. Many will make wine, others
will store them in large refrigerators
built for that purpose and wait till the
market is relieved. AS whole the
crop will be the finest ever shipped.
The late peaches continue to improve
IN appearance, and present Indications
point that nearly half a crop of really
choice fruit will be gathered in 0etG.

years, was run over and killed by an
engine of the Delaware railroad, on
Monday afternoon last at FELTON,. Mr..
Spencer had beenstalking to his land
lord, Mr. Richard Harrington, while
both were standing on the railroad
track. A freight train was slowly APP
preaching, and Mr.. Spencer thought
he had plenty of time to step off The
track, but when he attempted to do so
he found that the heel of his boot was
fast between the rails. He saw he had
TO time to lose and attempted to
throw himself forward from the track,
and thus wrench the heel loose, but he
failed, and the front wheels of the EN-
gine passed over bOth legs below the
knee. He was removed to his home
two miles from FeItOn, and seven ply
sicians and surgeons were called. 1t
was found necessary to amputate both
legs. but Mr.. Spencer died from the
shock just as the last artery was tied.
He had been member of Laws Chap
Ell for many years and was highly re-
spected by the community in which
he lived. His remains were inferred
In the cemetery at Barrett's Chapel.
It is said there were lO6 carriages in

For several weeks past there has
been strange and ghOstly proceedings
from an unknown cause, on the farm
belonging to the James POstles estate,
now in tenure of Chas HynsOn. Loud
peals of laughter aud sounds of some
thing rushing through the corn are
plainly heard, but no signs of the au-
thor or AUTHORS can be discovered.
Watches have failed to find a cause
for the strange sounds, and attribute
it to a supernatural source but prob
ably the most natural explanation
would be. cranes feeding on the corn
at night; or, some frOlicsOme "cOOn"
