1t is said that Chester and Dslw:re
county, Pennsylvania, spring water is be-
ing barrelsd and shipped to Philadelphia,
where 1t sells for ten cents per gallon. We
do not know anything about the truth or
filsity Of this report, but if we were called
upon for an opinion upon it we would say
that it sounds rather tish-.
The net proceeds from the charity sup
per given at Odd Fellows Hall last week
footed mp few cents less than sos. Tween
ty-two dollars and .iXty-four cents was
turned over to the treasur of the poor fund
OF each Of the three churches engaged, viz:
the Protestant Episcopal, PreShy terian and
Methodist Episcopal. This shows profit
Of S61.92. This will 90 something towards
retrieving the poor Of our town. but great
deal more is needed.
Two Elkton lxiies entered a car At
Broad street station, Philadelphia, the other

only with their faces to the front. They
took seats facing just opposite to everyone
else, and after they got fairly undsr way OF
their iourne, they found they were the
only two persons in the car riding back
wards.
