"A day or two ago, we thought that
Indian Summer had come to gladden. our
hearts, but the weather yesterday was
not in that line.
The Philadelphia Water Commits
sioners have placed dam in Tohickon
Creek, Point Pleasant, for the purpose of
measuring the velocity and supply of
water at that point.
On Friday evening there will be
'Jug Break held in the Baptist Church,
Lam bertville. An interesting programme
has been prepared, in which the Kinder
garten children will take part. Refresh
ments will also be provided, and fine
time promised to those who choose to go
and see these interesting exercises. Ad-
mission 10 cents.
"A few days ago there was quite
skirmish between party of wild ducks,
on "Huffnagle's Dam, and some of our
renowned New Hope specimens. We have
not learned of the result of the conflict,
but judging from the popping and bang
ing of the hour, we would be inclined to
believe that there was one poor bird less
in that unfortunate flock.
Rev. Joseph II. Smith, pastor of the
Lahaska and Lumberville Churches, hav-
ing had his district labor considerably in-
creased, is inclined to make our village
his residence. AS New Hope can boast
of large number of good Methodists, un
der the care of an exceptionally talented
preacher, he will find himself warmly well
coined, should he decide to remove to our
borough.
-Rabbits are scarce, especially within
the past day or two. 1t only takes few
days to clean out our neighboring woods,
fields and thickets of their "cotton tails"
veteran sportsman, who lives upon the
banks of our raging Delaware, informed
ur recently, that they (the rabbits) had
taken refuge in the corn.stalks in the
fields, SO farmers will have to hurry in the
fodder, as the average New Hope ''doig"
can pass through heap of stalks like
/, CREASED lightning" when rabbit is in
question.
