DUST has been in, on, over and about
everything along Walnut street all OF
last week and part of this. Our mer-
chants were very slow in paying for
having the sprinkler and consequently
it went the way of all good things.
Of course, a few men along the street,
who probably sell twenty-five or fifty
dollars worth OF goods per week didn't
sea what good it did them. but pity
their poor, narrow, pin pointed souls
they do not recognize that aside from
injury to goods, the laying of the dust
is conductive to health and cleanli-
ness. Let our town authorities take
hold of this matter. Let them have
the work done and pay for 1t, then
levy water tax on the people occupy
ing the property along the entire route
spTinkled; or, better still erect wind
mill and a tank, and sprinkle all of
the main streets Of the town at the
public expense. Some old foggy will
say, "YOu don't serve all alike. Yes
you will for side streets don't need
sprinkling and business streets are
used as much by people who live on
side streets as by any other class of cit
liens.

A. SUNDAY TRAIN from Harrington
to RehODoth is what our citizens are
clamOring for. If the train is well ad.
vertised through the newspapers and
run at hours that will give those who
patrOnize it ample time at the sea
shore, it will certainly pay and be pop
ular. Many merchants and clerks,
who can not leave on Saturday night,
would be more than glad to go to Reno
both to enjoy bath and the salt air.
The train should not leave RehOboth
before seven or eight o'clock p. m, as
that is the most enjoyable part of the
day. If our railroad officials will
think of this matter, they certainly
can see where a profitable carrying
business can be built up for Il short sea-
son, and will see where the road will
gain reputation for being accommo-
dating to the public, which is the main
aim of carrying companies.

REV. DR.. GEO. r. BRIsTOR, former
ly a Methodist Minister in the Viii

trouble. The Nelo York Herald gives the
following account of the affair.
"a meeting of thejOint board of off.
GERS OF st. Luke's Methodist Episcopal
Church, Newark, N. J. was held early
Yesterday morning at the residence OF
Mr.. John G. Day, to act upon charges
of immortality made against the Rev.
DIR. Geo. r. BristOr, pastor of the
church. After all the evidence had
been heard DR.. BristOr was informed
that he could either stand trial in an
ecclesiastical court or resign his pastO-
rate and leave the Methodist Church.
He chose the latter course without
making any statement. DIR. BristoT
left Newark yesterday.
The Dr., is about thirty-five years OF
age. He was formerly pastor of the
Ames Methodist Episcopal Church in
New Orleans. He went to Newark
from New Castle, Del. He was in his
second year in the Newark Conference
and had a reputation for elOquence
