The B., N. Y. & P. Ry has issu.
ed late time schedule on the "a. hour

w. r. Small, who lives at Thorn.
as sbingle mill near Tylersburg, lost
his house with all its contents by fire
on Monday night of last week. Mr..
Small was in attendance at the Post
installation on that evening conse-
quentIy the fire, which originated
from defective hue, had full sway.
Ibis loss leaves the unfortunate man
in rather straightened circumstances.

John Tanner, an employe at Wy.
man g. Co.'S mill at Tubbs Run, met
with severe accident on Friday
morning last. He was endeavoring to
throw bell on a pully when his hand
slipped aud be became entaDgled in
the machinery. The mill being under
full headway he was drawn under and
around the pullY before he could be
released, causing compound fracture
of the left arm below the elbow. DIR.
Morrow WIS summoned and reduced
the fracture, leaving the patient feel.
ing much easier. Mr.. Tanner is a
resident of Cochranron, Pa.
The Auditors Report, which will
be published next week, shows the
assets over liabilities TO be Sl3,31462 (;
in fact the county has no liabilities,
and hasn't had for some time. This
is an increase in assets Of $1,976.S8,
which is indeed a healthy sho wing.
While this surplus is not what would
be termed evailable assets, that is not
SO much cash in hand, it is, neverthe.
less, due the county and will come
some time. The tax levy for the com
ing year will not be more than six
mills and perhaps less. All this
shows the wisdom and care of our
present efficient board of Commiss-
toner's, and is viewed with pleasure
and satisfaction by the taxpayers of
the county.

most expired /; therefore, l enclose
hereiR beautiful steel engraving, the
prominent features of which are the
head of Jefferson, aud the Capitol al
Washington, trusting-although be-
lieve you never trust-that you will
arrange to renew my subscription for
it, as l have understood that some
editors will occasionally submit tC
this sort of "dicker." Wishing you
happy New Year, if not too late,
remain, Yours truly, Tom Atopie." "
To those who would enjoy rare

fore be greeted by a large audience
