There is strong probability that the
trade dollar question will be settled by
the expectation of the com before Con-
gress has a chance to pass on it. 1t seems
that the spectators who have been buy
ing up and holding trade dollars in Phila-
delpnia, hoping that they would soon rea-
lie a fine profit by the redemption OF their
bags Of dishonored money at par, have
become tired and disheartened, and are
unloading. The Times of that city SAYS:
"On Third street it is reported that the
disreputable trade dollar is steadily being
absorbed by China. One firm alone has
shipped about $250,000 worth IN the last
thirty days, and is still purchasing at an
advance of = per cent. over the price
offered by the mint for the money as bull
lion. The dollar is quoted at 81. When
it reaches China it is stamped by the gov
eminent, and, this mutilating the coin,
the United States can never be called
upon TO redeem 1t. In this way. though
American holders are loser, the country
gains. 1t is believed that about 81 600, eco
of this money was originally held in this
State, of which about half remained in
Philadelphia"

1t is credItable to the Southern temper that
the press of that section refuse to go into the
sectional controversy which the Republican
Gapers are attempting to force on the country
over the case; and 1t is discredltabe to the
Republicans that the perverse opposition they
make to the appointment is, not that Gen.
Lawton is incompetent to the duties Of the
position-they do not even intimate such
thing-but that he, like all other leading
Southern men. fought on the Confederate side
in a war twenty years ago.

There is no doubt that the people approve
the policy of the administration as it has thus
far been presented. and Democrats are in full
accord with It, as they understand IT. But
they do not understand it TO involve the keen
ing of Republican ofieeholders in office any
longer than they can be conveniently gotten
out. They understand the Presidents policy
to be that the Republican officeholders must
go; slowly and gradually, perhaps, but they

Some Of the o1ice-soekers appear to
want the positions now held by ladies in
the departments at Washington. They
say that most of the lady clerks are in
efficient, nervous and troublesome, and
that they are little less than mere PEN
sioners on the government. 1t seems,
however that the ladies won't resign, and
as il is considered ungallant TO turn them
out, there is no way Of getting rid Of them
except by marrying them OF. II will
probably very soon be told around conf
dentially that while they are poor clerks
they make excellent wives.

condemn the action Of Secretary Whitney

Large Crowd in Attendance.

Early in the week the sound of the
hammer, and the hustle and activity was
noticeable about Grange and Exchange
Halls. Ladies were busy fixing and
getting things ready to entertain the
visitors of Pomona Grange On Thurs
day, baskets, tubs, pans, buckets and
mysterious looking packages began to
arrive Toward midday the savory
smell of many imaginary dishes Hoated
ON the air. of course we were invited to
partake of dinner 1t was royal feast.
There was over one hundred and fifty
spreads, and all the good things imagin-
able were offered to tempt the appetite.
There was no imagination about the
many and bountifully hcaped dishes.
A reality. The ladies were very atten-
tive in waiting upon the fes,sters, and us
soon as one dish passed by another came
along. We cannot but heartily thank the
lady members who so kindly invited MS

Pickings at OowantOwn.

A young man presented the brother
of his sweetheart with with large beef
heart if he would carry enough of wood
in the house to keep the fire going while
he spent the evening
"A skating rink was opened at
Jackson Hall, short distance from
Cowantown, on Tuesday evening.
The attendance was very good and much
fun was elected from the effort of the
new beginners. The rink was under the
management of Prof. f. G. Collins, of
ElktOn.
A young man near this village went to
mill one of the cold days not long ago.
He soon had the load on the cart and
started homeward. He never looked back
and kept the horse ut a brisk gait, As
he passed the store, he was yelled at by
the crowd, but he never looked at them
On arriving home he found the cart emp
ty, every bag had been jolted out. He
had to retrace his course and gather up
the scattered bags.
Miss Hannah Blackson of Andora,
Cecil county, and Theodore Warren, who
lives near Fair Hill, same county, were
joined in the bonds of wedlock on We'd
nesday afternoon at the home of the
brides parents. Rev. Chas Hill, of the
Cherry Hill NJ. T.. Church, performed the
ceremony. A reception was held at the
brides home the same evening. Mr..
Clarence Singles acted as groomsman
while Miss Ethel Warren, sister of the
groom. was bridesmaid.
Two young men of this place took
drive up country few evenings since.
On their way they stopped at the house
of a relative, and one of the boys, think
ing, to surprise the folks, concluded to
go in by the rear entrance. He encoun-
tered some sharp thorns, at first. Then
he jumped over Il fence into what he be-
leyed was the back yard, when 10! he
had vaulted into duck pen. The "quack-
ers" by their noise brought the family to
the scene and they succeeded in fishing
out the unfortunate fellow.
One night last week there happened
at place not many miles from this town,
quite an amusing episode. A young man
bent on visiting young lady, but was
not certain whether he would find her
home. A practical joker was around
and soon the young man No. l received
note telling him that Miss So-and-So
would be in Elkton. Away he goes to that
town. The "joker" then calls on the
young lady who was at her home,
and was enjoying himself with the lady
when another young man No. 3. called
and asked for the lady. He was in his
best wagon, and when he asked the Miss
to take a drive, she quickly assented.
The "joker" was severely joked, and
passed the remainder of the evening with
the old folks. He was so mad that he
did not go home until midnight.

There seems to be some misunder-
standing as To the particular Harry Max
well who participated in the scrub race
at the roller rink last week. Now there
are two of them. They arc unlike in
many ways and alike in others. One is
tall and Apollo-like, with easy, graceful
movements, while the other is smaller in
stature, he possesses rogush eyes, that
satisfy one at first glance Of an amount Of
mischief lurking within. While not
"mashers" in the strict sense of the word,
both are much admired by the fair sex.
Now to the point. Now we would have
you understand that our Harry (the sa-
tanic majesty of this office did not par
ticipate in the race. OF course you now
know who was in the race. We merely
make the above explanation to set our
readers Alright, and particularly those who
are acquainted with the gentlemen in
question. We trust the 1.-TWO Harrvs"
will never get us badly mixed up as the
1.-TWO Johns"
On Thursday evening last Fred f.
Mckinsey, an employee of this office
and his sister Miss Lille NJ. McKinsey,
were the recipients of n masquerade sur
prise party by their many friends here
in town. During the day named, the
former supposed surprised accidentally
was made acquainted with the facts, but
the latter was entirely ignorant of what
was going on, until Il violent pull at the
door bell brought the host TO his feet
who calmly admitted the unknown
masqueraders. In all particulars the event
was complete and this brother and sister
are well pleased TO know they are held
in such warm remembrance by their
young associates. There were over fifty
guests, all of whom were adorned in COS
tunes most hideous, odd and undiscrib-
able. After a short season spent in mer-
riment and in trying to find out who was
who, the party shed their gorgeous warps |
and spent several hours socially together
Refreshments were served in abundance,
to which full justice was done. \ most
pleasant evening, one that will long be
remembered by both surprsers and sur
prised was spent. At late hour the
guests took their departure in couples
for their various places of abode
