Chronic Sciatica Cured.
Ashland, Mass, January %, 18SI

For the last two years have hobbled
around on crutches. During that time
was afflicted with sciatic rheumatism.
I not only suffered terrible pain night
and day, but was utterly helpless. Al
ter using every possible effort to get we'll,
and exhausting the best medical advice,
was induced to try four Allcock's Porus
Plasters. These wore on my side, hip
bone and thigh. In one week I was
almost entirely free from pain, and
strength returned to my palsied limb. /
continued using these Plasters with the
most surprising results for three months,
when I became perfectly cured, and
abandoned the use of crutches. Persons
desiring further information can
address me.

The st. Paul Pioneer Press is inclined
to look with doubt upon the success of
the effort to remove Governor Pierce by
establishing charges against him. It
says: !.
A statement comes from Washington
that charges of malfeasance in office
have been preferred against Gov. Pierce,
of Dakota, that he will be removed, and
that Ex.G Governor Zlebach, who has q
petition on file nearly one mile in
length, will probably be appointed as
his successor. Inasmuch, however, as
Mr.. l.. G. johnson, OF Ordway-who has
built up reputation as one of the most
reliable, honorable, conscientious and
warm hearted men of the northwest
publicly declared in ST. Paul, on Mon
day, that President Cleveland will not
remove Governor Pierce simply to make
room for partisan democrat, the people
of Dakota need not lose any sleep brood
ing over the impending calamity.
The foregoing estimate of the charac-
ter of Ordway johnson reads like paid
advertisement.

Washington Street.

Washington Street.
The long talked of opening of Wash
ington street has at last became a reality.
The school boy of twenty or twenty-five
years ago was told that this street was to
be opened, making an easy access to the
school grounds. School trustees almost
yearly since that time have petitioned
Council to have the street laid out aud
improved, but for causes unknown, very
little Roadway was made in the matter.
Last years City Council ordered the
street to be surveyed and the probable
cost of laying it out and improving it
to be estimated. The matter was finally
laid over, owing to the latcness of the
season. Finally it was referred to the
present Council. This Council proposes
to honor and perpetuate the name of the
Father of our Country, (after whom the
street is named), by laying out and max
ing good passable street from York
street to the summit of the hill, to inter
sect with Bridge street. A number of
workmen are now engaged on this tho
roughfare and when completed it will be
one of the most attractive streets that is
in our city. Being located high up over
the center of the city, it commands not
only a fine view of the city but also of
the surrounding country and the Della
ware Valley. The promenader will be at
tracted thitber. The park around the
school grounds will be made attractive by
seats and other convenences for our citi-
zens in the Summer season, and the pres
ent Council will receive all the honor and
credit due them. 1t is also proposed that
when the street is completed the Superin-
tendent and the Trustees of the Public
Schools of this city, shall celebrate the
event in creditable manner by arranging
and having suitable exercises at the school
grounds, by the children of the Public
Schools, and that an invitation be extend
ed to the citizens to be present.

NEW HOPE AND BUCKS COUNTY, PA.


On Tueseay evening of last week the
New Hope Cornet Band gave free con-
cert at the toll gate. All the neighbor-
hood enjoyed it.
Matthias Corners, son of John Con-
ners, came near bleeding to death on
Monday. While working in his father S
quarries, near the Deer Park, a piece of
stone struck HIM on the cheek. At first
it bled but little, and he started to go to
New Hope. While on his way, the wound
began to bleed SO freely that he became
very faint before medical assistance could
be had, and he was SO weak that he was
compelled to stay in town over night.
Miss NJ. A. Matthews, the newly ap.
pointed postmistress at Now Hope, took
charge of the office yesterday morning.
Miss Matthews is a young lady of intelli
gence and education, and is highly re.
spected by the people of the borough
She will no doubt, make an Efficient of
ficer.
1t is proper to say that Mrs. Lippincott
who has been the acting postmistres.
for some years, has given good satisfaction
to to the people. She has been pleasant
and accommodating to all those having
business with the office.

A GEORGIA RECLusE.
The Romance and Wrong That Drove
Savannah Belle TO Strict SccIusion.

In a small cabin, near Fayetteville, lives
female hermit, Miss Sarah Landrau, with
a curious history. She is over sixty years
Of age and for thirty-five years has occupied
her present abode, refusing oil association
with the people around her and living in
the rudest manner. She belongs to one of
the richest families in South Georgia and
shirty4iye years ago was one of the bellies
who graced Savannah society. She was
sought in marriage by young gentleman
Of that city and the arrangements for the
wedding were elaborate. Her toilets were
ordered from New York. On the appointed
night she was doomed to disappointment,
for the groom came not.
When the news was received next day
that he had eloped with lady who was WIS.,
iting his fathers house it found the disap-
pointed bride at the point Of death. She
recovered, however, and with the strong
will which had characterized her life, de-
clared her purpose to live recluse, stoutly
refusing aid or comfort. Only once did she
hear of her recreant lover, that he had en-.
tered Georgia regiment during the war
and was shot dead before Petersburg. In
his coat pocket was found picture of the
girl whom he had so wronged. Woman,

The Republicans of New York have
made an unusually strong and excellent
nomination for Governor in the selection
of Mr.. Ira Davenport. Even the Egening
Post pronounces him unexceptional as to
his antecedents, character and ability, and
says that he is politician of the best
type" who has "lilled various positions
in the State service most ably aud unex-
ceptionaly." The platform is one of the
best ever adopted by any party in this
country.

The stnte Fair.

The State Fair.
The State Fair at Philadelphia is now
in full blast, and is by all reports, the
most complete and interesting display
ever made by the State Agricultural So
ciety.
A new and very attractive building,
known as Floral Hall, has been put up,
in which there is by far the finest exhibi-
tion of Fruits and Vegetables ever shown
in Pennsylvania. The display of Flowers
is also of unusual beauty and interest.
The experiment of turning the Main
Building over to Philadelphia business
men, who have devoted it exclusively to
exhibits that are not agricultural, has
proved an entire success, and the great
structure is filled with great variety of
handsome exhibits.
This week the bench show of dogs, un-
der the direction of the Philadelphia Ken
mel Club, and superb display of Poultry
are among the attractive features. The
show of Poultry is said to be the best ever
made in the United States.
The Hurdle and Flat Races aud Steeple
chases, which have proved SO popular,
arc contested daily by gentlemen riders
from Philadelphia and the vicinity and
add much to the general interest.
Arrangements are also being made for
a number of Bicycle Races.
In every way the fair is much more
interesting and on greater scale than
last year. So far the attendance, which
has been very good, has been very largely
from Philadelphia and its suburbs.
The Fair appeals especially to country
people, however, and no one should miss
an opportunity of visiting it.
1t will close on the 14th.

JUDGE PARKER ON LIQUOR SELLING.

Attic opening of the Burlington county
courts, last week, Judge Parker, in his
charge to the Grand Jury, announced
that he had received a communication
from the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, of Mount Holly, in reference to a
place there in which liquor is sold un-
lawfully. The communication depreca-
ted the license system and favored pro-
hibition. This clause, Judge Parker said,
it was not proper for the Court to dis
cuss. While we live under the present
laws, the Court has nothing to do but to
administer them. 1t should be careful In
granting licenses, and liquor dealers
should understand that they have special
privileges under these laws, and should
be careful not to abuse these privileges.
The Court has power to take away from
any one who breaks the law any license
that is granted by the Court-licensei
granted by cities are not within thu
power of the Court to govern except tc
punish offenders when brought up under
disorderly house indictment. An opin.
ion appears to prevail that, through de
cision rendered by the Chief Justice, the
selling of liquor under socalled govern
ment license and allowing it to be drank
on the premises does not constitute 9
disordorly house. His Honor said that
he did not so understand the decision
and he should hold until otherwise ad
vised that the selling of liquor whether
under government license or not, although
in greater measure than quart, and al
lowing 1t to be drunk on the premises
is indictable under the common law.

The people living in the vicinity of

the habit of taking path across the

angry and brought some half.dozen suits

that vicinity for trespass.
