WEST CHESTER, May, 81.
A remarkable discovery has been
made by Edward Brown, a quarryman
at Johns0n's quarries, near Pocopson,
Chester county. Brown had reached
a depth Of ten feet, and after drilling
a hole in what he supposed to be solid
rock he charged it with powder, light.
ed the fuse and retired out Of danger.
After the blast went off he returend,
when, instead of finding broken stone,
he discovered what looked more like
a kitchen which had Just been through
an experience with Western cyclone.
There was a stove, lot of tin cans,
an iron pot, mason's trowel, a singu-
larly-shaped axe and some bones. The
place where the things we're found had
evidently been a cave, the mouth of
which had been covered up, and was
probably the hiding.placo of some
criminal in the early days of the cen.
tury, when highwsymen were numer.
Gus in Chester county. Joe Hare was
born within a quarter Of mile of the
cave, and possibly he retired there to
live when pursued. He was noted
bighwayman, who was hanged at
Trenton for robbing the United States
mail near Lancaster. The quarry was
until within few years covered with
heavy timber and thick underbrush,
making il a good hiding.place. Much
interest has been exhibited in the ar.
ticles found, which will bestored away
as relics.

ATTENTION FARMERS.

Farmers contemplating buying Seed
ers this spring will, before purchasing,
do well to call at the Warehouse of Bib
niger & Day and examine the CELE-
DRAFTED MONITOR SEEDER.
Remember they have just received an
entire new stock of Seeders with all the
latest improvements for 1883.
No OLD STOCK ON HAND CARRIED OVER
FROM PREVIOUS YEARS. They call espec-
ial attention to the REVERSIBLE DOUBLE
POINTED Spring TOOTH. These teeth
are made of solid steel. Every Monitor
Seeder has the box painted GREEN.
This being the trade mark we mention
this SO none may be deceived that is not
familiar with the construction of the
Monitor.

TnB Spri ngfeld Republican gives. in

TIE Spri ngfeld Republican gives, in
cidentally, history of the origin OF Val
entines day. 1t appears Valentine is a
saint. He was Roman priest who suf-
fered martyrdom in February of the Srd
century. In those early days of the
church, pagan festivals were turned to
good account and were made to bear
some sacred character. The festival of
Juno Februta, something of love max
ing aft .ir occurred on the anniversary of
Valentines death. The day was made
sacred to the christian Valentine thus de-
posing the goddess Juno. A similar fes-
tivai was held in Scandinavia at the same
time and the custom of Valentines really
comes from Norseland, although the Ro-
mans furnish the name. The custom
survived in the icy peninsula when it had
partially fallen into disuse farther south,
but when it again became common the
Morse name yielded to the more pleasing
southern word.

You have plenty of time these DAYS to
plan your spring work.
You know the value of good seed
and that without it you fail entirely. for
1t is only from good seed that good veg
etables or grain can be obtained. De-
eide to bay only the best seed of the best
varieties.
Ii oy little extra outlay for superior
seed, you can increase the yield and
quality largely, it is we'll worth vopr
while to do SO.

THE Milwaukee Lake Shore e. Western
officials report that the indications for an
immense immigration to the northern
part of the State the present year were
never more favorable. Rhinelander, the
new town in the northwestern part of
Oconto County, is growing rapidly, and
nearly all the lots in the original plat
have been sold. Six months ago thera
was not Utilization within a circle of
ten miles of the spot where the town
now stands. AT the present time there
are dwellings,, stores, mills and factories,
a weekly paper, and population of 400
people in Rhinelander. Land Commits
sioner Thayer expects the town will have
a population of 1000 before it is year
old. The Company have extended the
road about twelve miles north of Ealand,
and here, it is expected, another town
will be located, the name of which has
not yet been decided upon. The road
passes through a wilderness of pine
woods, where there is no settlement
whatever, and the land for miles in either
direction is unoccupied. This makes it
necessary for the Company to plan its
own towns. A site is selected, the
surveys made, depot built and induce
ments made for the erection of mills and
manufacturing establishments, and thus
the town is founded. This Company
owns thousands of acres of valuable
lands, and have disposed of several
hundred farms, which will be settled
upon by Eastern people the coming
spring.

THE NEW PROCESS.

The New Process Baking Powder,
manufactured by Mr.. Oscar A. Alter, is
daily gaining in favor. 1t is accorded,
by all who have used it, place in the
first rank of baking powders. 1t is
manufactured from pure materials and no
adulteration is resorted to in its makeup.
Undoubtedly there are many powders
in the market that contain alum or some
other cheap substance. Were it not so,
these powders could not be sold at as
low rates as some of them are. In this
branch of household supplies, the care
full housewife will find it safest to follow
the rule that the best is the cheapest.
1t is better to pay reasonable sun for
a can of pure baking powder, than a low
price for can of adulterated stuff
labeled Baking Powder" Not only is
it cheaper, but it is safer. Many of
these authorizations are positively iniur-
ioUs and dangerous to health.
A special reason that commends the
"New Process to public favor, is that
its manufacture is home industry. 1t
IS true, it is yet in its infancy, but the
more claims has it for support and
protection.
So far, the ladies of Manitowoc have
shown their appreciation of it, by
generous demand, and, with few excep-
tions, the merchants are taking hold
of the matter, and keep the New Process
constantly on hand.
Those who have not yet used it, had
better try it once and they will never
regret it and will, most probably, forever
after use the New Process Baking Pow

some consistency in its terms. But de-

THERE is no man, more hospitable,

THERE is no man, more hospitable,
obliging and courteous than the farmer
when at or near home. He will do al
MIST anything for the accommodation of
a traveller. But take some farmers on
the road to market and they undergo
metamorphosis. They cease to have any
regard for the rights of others. We have
so much respect for the farmer who
shows little courtesy in failing to bring
his heavy sleigh in contact with our light
cutter that we involuntary "tip our beaver"
to him as he passes. Although the law
of the road gives every man the right to
half the track when teams meet, still it
is recognized as the proper thing for the
person who is light to turn clear out. In
many instances, this winter, it is impos-
sible to do so and the cutter cannot be
got so far from the center of the road
that it will not suffer damage from the
projecting whipple-trees of the passing

fence you have voluntarily disconnected

the track being in the center, it is almost
impossible for teams to pass each other

An intelligent gentleman, a resident of
the country, lately in commenting upon
this trouble experienced by persons who
travel with light vehicles, said there is
nothing better for community who
have no concern for the courtesy due

that other people have right to the road
