R. B. Quick, of Ringoes, died very sud-
denly at the house of the latter on Thurs

Frenchtown, returning to the home of
his daughter in Ringoes on Thursday
evening. Upon entering the house Mrs.
Quick inquired how be felt and he re-
piled that he was feeling very good, only
little tired. She told him to be seated
while she prepared him some supper. He
had no sooner seated himself upon
lounge than he fell forward upon his
face, gave few gasps, and was dead.
His age was about rs years. lie was

Course of Lectures in Lambertville.


A course of lectures is being arranged
for this city during the coming winter.
The arrangements are only partially COM
pleted, but the course will probably con-
sist of three lectures or entertainments
The first has been fixed for Wednesday
evening, Dec. 9th, when Miss Helen Pot
ter will give one of her well-known char
acter representations.
The second will be on Christmas night,
when Mr.. II. H. Raglan will exhibit one
of his illuminated Tours" and it will
probably be yosemite and the Yellow
stone"
Miss Potter is too well-known for COM
ment; and of Mr.. Raglan, the Secretary of
the Y M. c. A., of Philadelphia, says,
"No man we ever had, received such APP
plause as he throughout the whole even
ing. l say without hesitation, that no
pictures have ever before been presented
SO perfect and beautifully illuminated as
these, and no man has been here who has
treated an audience to such impassoned
and flushed oratory.'
The third lecture has not yet been ar
ranged for positively, but will probably
be either Mr.. r. ]. Burdette or Howard
Mac Sherry, Esq, and will take place
about the middle of January.
A number of gentlemen have guaran-
teed the expenses, and the proceeds, II
any, will be donated to the "Stryker Lii
brary."

Where to Purchase.
Coats, Wraps and Jerseys.
The season is here when, accord
ing to the old custom and saying,
"bundle up WELL" The day for
" bundling" is past. Garments now
days must fit or they are no good.
Very few of the wearers have any
idea of the time and care required
by a merchant if he does his duty
in selecting Coats and Wraps. 1st,
the quality is to be considered, and
in this we have to look sharp so as
not to be deceived by the unsorupu-
lous manufacturer. I'd, the perfect
fit of the garments. Sd, the popu-
lar styles to be worn. We have
spared no pains in trying to meet
all these important points, and be-
lieye we have the largest stock, the
most attractive and perfect fitting
Coats and Wraps ever offered in our
town, at prices mnch lower than
last season. Children's genuine
Beaver Coats, in desirable shades
from $3.50 up. We've bought no
shoddy or printed cloth coats as yet,
and don't want to if we can per-
suade our patrons to buy the better
goods. Ladies Newmarkets and
Winter Weight wraps are all the go,
and at prices very low for good
quality.
Our Millinery Counter presents
the most attractive feature of our
many departments. This is because
of its great Importance to the
Ladies. Since the arrival of our
last invoice of Fine Winter Millin-
cry Goods we have made up and
filled our cases with choice and en-
tirely new designs. Stylish Hats
and Bonnets are now ready, and
suitable for the plain, the gay and
the most fastidious. Our Milliners
are thoroughly experienced in Grape
work which always receives prompt
attention.
Blankets, Underaoear and Hosiery
come direct to us by the solid
case, a profit gained by us is profit
saved for you. The best $3.50 per
pair blankets ever offered for the
price. Ladies' and Children's full
fashioned Hose 25 cts., very nice 10
and II cts. Children's Underwear
12a to so cts. Men'sand Woman's
Underwear, 25c., 40c.; excellant 50c.,
Toe, $1.00; All-wool Scarlet, 81,

Kid Gloves.
The Carpet Department has been

public.

To Our Renders.

To Our Readers. aNs
We cannot too strongly urge upon our
readers the necessity of subscribing for a
family weekly newspaper of the first
class-such, for instance as THE INDIE
PENDENT, of New York. Were we oblig-
ed to select one publication for habitual
and careful reading to the exclusion of all
others, we should choose unhesitatingly
THE INDEPENDENT. 1t is a newspaper,
magazine, and review, all in one 1t is a
religious, a literary, an educational,
story, an art, a scientific, an agricultural
financial, and political paper combined.
1t has 80 folio pages and % departments.
No matter what persons religion, poll
tics or profession may be, no matter what
the age, sex, employment or condition
may be, THE INDEPENDENT will prove u
help, an instructor, an education. Our read
ers can do no less than to send postal for
free specimen copy, or for thirty cents
the paper will be sent month, enabling
one to judge of its merits more critically.
Its yearly subscription is $500, or two
years for $500.

1t is said that Governor Albeit is yet
hopeful that he will win the prize of the
United States Senatorship. He notifies
his friends that he must by no means be
counted out of the fight, aud that he has
not been disheartened by recent untoward
events. 'The affair of last Tuesday, +" he
thinks, twas a skirmish that of next
Fall will be pitched battle" The Gov
ernor is right in regarding the result of
the November election as being in no
way conclusive of the Senatorial cam
paign. 1t has happened before now that
the party which has triumphed in the
preliminary skirmish has been defeated
when the real battle came. The great
fight for the Senatorship comes next Fall,
when six Senators and full Assembly
are to be elected. In that crisis, the DEM
ocrats will have the advantage of being
able to poll their full vote for Governor,
and they undoubtedly hope to capture
the Scholarships of Cumberland, Ocean
and Atlantic. AS the two last-named are
coast counties, the dead-set made by the
Democrats for full control of the Life
Saving and Light House Service may be
accounted for. These posts, small as they
are in themselves, are regarded by our
hungry friends as valuable crumbs in
their eager hunt for the patronage they
so much banker after.

Important Surgical Operation.

A very delicate and important surgical
operation was performed in this city a
few days ago. 1t consisted in the re-
moval of an entire mammary gland from
the breast of young lady who had been
suffering for some time from a malignant
sarcomatous tumor of cancerous nature.
The patient was completely under the in
fiuence Of an an@sthetic and was entirely
unconscious until placed in bed. The
operation was performed by DR.. Horace
G. Wetherill, of Trenton, in the presence
and with the assistance of his father and
DR.. Romine. of this city and DIR. Thorn
ton, of Pennsylvania. 1t was entirely
successful and the patient is doing we'll.
DR.. Agnew having been consulted In the
case, decided the operation was necessary
and recommended. to his patient, his
friend and former pupil, DR.. Wethe rill, as
skillful surgeon.

The fact that the New York Republi-
can candidate for Attorney General advo-
Gated the submission to the people of a
prohibitory amendment to the constitu-
ton, in the Legisl AZURE last Winter, did
not prevent the Prohibitionists from
making a united opposition to him.

The Republicans of this county are
under obligations to Mr.. r. B. Reading,
Chairman of the County Executive Com
mittee, for his untiring efforts for the sue
cess of the ticket at tho recent election.
Heretofore the craftsmanship seems to
have been mere honorary position, but
Mr.. r. has demonstrated that very effec-
tive work can be done if the right man is
in the right place. Mr.. Reading was
untirng in his efforts to get out the Re-
publican vote, many of whom thought
there was no hope of success, and had it
not been for this effort, no outside help
would have assisted to elect Mr.. Large
Senator.

Shooting a Colt.

Shooting Colt.
George Van Liew and one Dingman,
both colored, the former living in this
county, and the latter in Deutzville,
Mercer Co., are in Jail for being impli-
Gated in the death of two year-old colt,
valued at one hundred and fifty dollars,
and belonging to John L. Burroughs, of
near Woodsville, Mercer county. The
colored men last Saturday morning were
preparing for cunning expedition and
it is emerged, seeing colt in field, one
of them drew pistol, and 10 order to
test his aim, or for some other reason,
fred at the animal. He put three balls
into him, of course killing him. The
men were committed to Jail by Justice
Phillips, Of Hopewell. They deny the
charge, asserting that q tramp named
Conkey shot the colt, and for the sake
of finding out what Conkey may know
of the matter, search is being made for
him.

Two speakers at the temperance
meeting at the New Hope NJ. E. Church,
last Wednesday night, tried to create the
impression that the St, John prohibition
business was pushing along the temper
ance cause. If the ill-feeling aud divi-
sion in the ranks of the temperance peo-
pie, the back set given all over the coun-
try to local Prohibition, and the licensing of
liquor selling in towns where prohibition
has before been triumphant, is an evidence
of success, then the st. John saints are
going ahead very fast.

There is patient in Scotch infrmary
suffering from q painful disease in which
every person who uses cane is interested
1t is sore of the hand, brought on by the
pressure of a round-knobbed stick against
the palm; in this case it has affected the
muscles from the fingers to above the wrist
A speedy cure is not probable. The sur.
geons say that n stick with handle, instead
of knob on which the palm must press, i.
the thing to carry.

The HunterdoB Democrat takes the
defeat of its Senatorial candidate quite
philosophica.ly and is inclined to run to
puns, of which the following are speci-
mems :
We kept calling for full vote, but wo
didn't mean it to be quite SO Large.
The people came out last Tuesday in
Large numbers. 1t was a Large vote.
What Eger- TT means, there can be no
doubt that Large vote was polled in
Hunterdon last Tuesday.
The people came to town last Tuesday
and exercised the right of American free
men. They exercised it Largely in favor
of the Republicans, however.

A Prosperous Seminary.
Pennington Seminary, all will be glad

present number of students is much larger
than for several past years. The i'm
provements exceed all expectations -
Nothing indeed is wanting in any respect.
The accommodations are first.class, and
the Faculty very able. 1t speaks we'll for
the seminary that of the six students en-
tering the last Freshmen class at Prince
ton, two of them in the recent examine
tion passed to the highest division of the
class. The public entertainment by the
pupils, on Tuesday night of last week,
showed unusual excellence in recitation,
oratory and music. The New Jersey Con-
ference and the Board Of Trustees are to
be congratulated on the prosperity of the
seminary, owing SO much to their enter
prise and generosity in the recent i'm
provements. State Gazette.

Missing and Undoubtedly Drowned.
Last Monday evening Mr.. j. G. Black
we'll, of this city, went from his home for
the purpose of feeding his horse, since
which time his wife has no. seen him. At
about o'clock the same evening he was
seen going down York street toward the
canal, and hat which was supposed
to be his has since been found in the
canal. These facts lead to the conclusion
that he has been drowned, and as we go
to press, the canal is being dragged to
find his body. Mr.. Blackwell has lived
in Lambertville for several years, and is
well-known throughout the surrounding
country, having been during that time
agent for the Singer Sewing Machine Co.
He has wife but no children.

The United States Courts seem to be
taking up in earnest the prosecution of
the hoodlums, who were concerned in the
outrages upon the Chinese at Tacoma and
Seattle. Indictments have been found
against the Mayor of Tacoma, the police
judge, two newspaper editors and others
who iustigated the attack upon the Chi
nese as we'll as upon those who took an
actual part in the evictions. The Mayor
of Tacoma, foreigner who cannot speak
the English language correctly, was re-
sponsible in great part for the outrage
committed there. He and his adherents
terrorized the law-abiding and peaceable
citizens. Tacoma papers endorsed the
action of the rioters, and in every way en-
deavored to intimidate those who did not
sympathize with the mob. Thirty-two
persons have been indicted by the United
States Grand Jury now in session at Van
couver, 1870 miles from Tacoma, and
regiment of troops have been sent to
Seattle. If the men who have been in
dicted are prosecuted, and some of them
roundly punished, Western hoodlumsm
would receive the most impressive lesson
that it has had for many day

According to the st. John saints, no.
body is temperance man who does not
vote the prohibition ticket. Therefore,
there are just forty four temperance men
in Lambertville. But as some of the voters
for the Prohibition ticket were dissatis-
fed Democrats, who do not profess to be
prohibitionists, the number is less than
forty -four. Isn't it about time for these
men to stop riding hobby and go at
something practical?
