BY recent events we are led to call
attention again to the great impOr-
tance of o pure and healthful supply
of water for the town. Certain cases
of malignant typhoid recently occur
ring near the business center it is said
can be traced to the fact that the
water supply has been contaminated by
the proximity of cesspOOls to the we'll.
There are many cases in which there
is visible danger from such a source,
and we would suggest that there be as
little delay as possible in the cOnstruc-
tiOn of our water-works. A leading
physician remarks that the bust
ness of the medical profession would
be greatly diminished in this commu-
nifty by a pure and complete watersup-
ply.
THE birthday party which we re-
ferred to last week as given to A. Lee
Cummins, by his young friends was
the success of the season in a society
way and enjoyed by over one hundred
of our fair maidens and young men.
The participation of so many young
ladies in the pleasures of the evening
was a reminder to Mr.. G. that they yet
consider him on the sunny side of
bachelOrdOm, and austere indeed must
be that nature that can successfully re-
sist-if it can-all the bright smiles
and charming manners that grace such
an occasion. Mr.. Cummins was the
recipient in the evening of a handsome
wicker chair with fraternal greetings
from eight old bachelors" having ear
lier in the day received a box from
some of his lady friends containing
some appreciatiVe articles. Refresh
ments were served in abundance and
orchestral music kept time to swiftly
flying feet on the platform in the
lawn until an hour past midnight.

we neglected to speak of his domestic
and religious life. Asa husband no one
could be more true and devoted, and
as a father, more patient and tender.
In the midst of a life that was full to
an unusual degree of perpleXities and
Vicissitudes, he was always the same
cOnsiderate and compassionate father
and unwavering christian. Always
loyal to his church and active in obey
ing every call to duty, he was content
in the humber Offices until called by
his brethren to the more responsible
position of local preacher to which he
was licensed nearly thirty years ago,
attending to his business through the
week and preaching on Sunday, wher-
ever he felt his services were needed.
Next to his church and the saving of
men from the cause and consequence
of sin was the temperance cause and
the saving of his fellow men from the
vices and degradation of intoxicating
drinks. He felt that these two sub
jects were those leading all others of
the day for the peace, prosperity and
future good of the people.
His remains will be inferred this
afternoon in the new Methodist Gene
terry at Dover, the funeral services
being held in the church at 3 O'Clock.

Great stress is laid on the deep sig
nificance of the ceremonies connected
with General Grants funeral on Sat-
urday in illustrating the goodwill that
exists between the North and the
South. This thought was the sole
theme of conversation Saturday night

them all none received so much atten-
ton as the Southern generals, John
stOn and Buckner. They were the
centre of groups of Northern men all
the evening, all of whom were anxious
to welcome them North and express
sentiments of amity and goodwill.

seen in this country, perhaps in the
world, and has given an opportunity
for the expression of goodwill between
the North and the South"
