Sleighing parties still seem to be the rage

One of the saddest collisions that has
occurred for number of years, happened
on last Saturday morning, by which one
man was killed and three more seriously in
jured, at Rupert. Two engines were almost
totally demolished and quite number of
cars. The men were busily employed un-
til four o'clock in clearing the track, and
on Monday they worked at the wreck, but
did not succeed in removing it. The men,
who are injured are getting along as well
as can be expected.
Our supervisor has again notified the
people not to deposit ashes or dirt in the
streets. Why do the people have TO be
told each year of this fact?
The burning of Mrs. j. Walters house
last week established one fact, that If we
intend to have the water works of any
benefit in case of fire, the citizens must
either purchase more hose, or else those
who are any distance from fire plugs will
receive no benefit.
AS the time for spring election is coming
on, let the citizens see to it that men are
selected, who do their duty conscientious
ly and look to the interests of the people,
more than to their pocket books. Men
who will not hesitate to do right if some
of their particular friends are not benefited
or their pet scheme pushed forward, at the
cost of the taxpayer.

after the party had dispersed. To James

New system OF Education.

AT a late meeting of the State Grange of
Pennsylvania, Secretary Thomas submitted
plan for system of education in the
Grange. He claims that practical system
of education in the order is feasible. He
based his system on plan of home reading
in regular and graduated steps. The sub.
ject matter is to be selected and arranged
with reference to the wants and attainmcnts
OF the readers, or as the Secretary puts it,
"the students shall begin with the simpler
elements of the sciences and continue un-
til the subject is thoroughly understood" ="
The course suggested by Secretary Thomas
will embrace American history, practical
botany, chemistry, geology, natural philos-
ophy and political economy the subjects
to be studied informally and reviewed at
stated or special meetings of the Grange

The most interesting branches CT study
ever introduced into our public schools are
physiology and hygiene. Parents and
guardians take more lively and active
part in them than the pupils do. The re-
suit thus far has been several public exhi-
bitions with crowded houses where
speeches and much other promiscuous
speaking of rather an excitable nature,
were INDUCED in. Altogether they are
marvelously developing the intellect of old
and young in a stirring manner. Coercion
does not seem to conform to the spirit of
our people worth cent.
Mrs: Mary Eipper, whose maiden name
was Mrs. Mary Campbell, from near Or
angeville, with two chubby little boys, is
visiting friends in this neigh borhood.
Rev. William h. Campbell and his sister,
Mary, took charge of Monroe Seminary
at Bowman's Creek, Wyoming county, ID
the year 1878 and remained principal and
preceptress one year when the former en-
tered Lafayette college and the latter re-
mained some time longer IN the seminary.
In 1882 Miss Campbell was married to Mr..
Thomas Eipper, of Dallas, Luzerne county,
and soon thereafter moved to Spottsylvania
county, Va, not far from Fredericksburg,
on branch of the James River. Having
sold out, Mr. Eipper, with his family, re-
turned 10 Pennsylvania.
We never yet saw Il Winter which had

To the sunday school workmen of
the Keystone state.

GREETING:-The Pennsylvania State Sab
bath School Association has long felt the
need OF direct and regular communication
with the workmen and the field In many
parts of the State the Sunday school organ
ization is incomplete and the work incffic-
lent. The Keystone State should rank in
the very front OF the Sunday school army
To this end the executive committee have
decided to carry out the recommendation
of the last Convention at Sunbury, and is
sue paper devoted to the interests and
work of the Sunday schools of the State
1t will at first appear as quarterly, in the
hope that it may soon be much improved
and appear as monthly. The success of
the undertaking will depend largely upon
its reception by individual workmen
throughout the schools of the State.
Whilst nominal subscription price is fixed
at 90 cents it necessarily follows that the
paper will have to be sustained principally
by the liberality of the friends OF the cause
1t is proposed to circulate at least 5000
copies among the different counties. The
Association has no fund to devote to this
work and earnestly solicits private contri-
buttons, as well as subscriptions and ad-
vertisements, especially as in many locali-
ties the paper will have to be distributed
gratuitously in order to reach the end de.
sired. The work of editing the paper will
be frce-will o*ering most cheerfully
made. The paper will aim to furnish its
readers with reports of the field, including
statistics, and all matters of general inter-
est. 1t will be the medium of the officers
and executive committee of the organiza-
ton and thus take the place of the annual
circulars sent out by them. 1t will also
contain special articles prepared by exper-
fenced Sunday school men, brief and
practical. In this way it is earnestly hoped
that this paper will prove valuable aid
and welcome visitor to many homes and
schools throughout the State.

Farmers in the region OF the Susque-
hanna are being victimized by sharpers
who advertise a new. variety of oats for
sale. Bohemian oats" "China hulled
oats" ard Red lined wheat" are rank
swindlers' The modest sum of $15 pei
bushel for Red line wheat is charged and
dn agreement made with the purchaser
that the parties who sell him the wheat
this year at S15 per bushel will take of
him double the quantity next year at $40
per bushel that he buys this year. The
seed oats are sold to farmers for about 81
per bushel and similar agreement is
made. The agreement amounts to moth
ing, for the company that makes the ag-
reement will have been disbanded before
next year comes around.
1t is about time that people stopped
signing papers without having even Gu
riosity enough to examine their contents.
Don't sign papers without understanding
their contents, and when they are offered
by strangers be douby cautious.

a hearing was had before Justice Jacoby
| on Saturday last in charge of assault and
| battery between A. j. Evans and members
OF the Salvation Army. From the testi-
| mony given at the hesring we learn the fol-
lowing facts: Mr.. A. j. Evans, on the 2lst
| of November, had rented his hall to the
Salvation Army for six months at $40 Il
morth-payable in advance. On Thursday
last the captain of the army went to Mr.
Evans and offered part payment for the
coming month, saying he did not have
| enough for all, but would pay the balance
in few days. The part payment was not
taken, and the army not suspecting any
thing, went to the room in the evening and
found il locked. The Salvation Army had
about $50 worth of property, consisting of
benches, &c, and still retained the key to
the room. The next day they consulted an
attorney and was instructed to tender Mr..
Evans the full amount of rent money.
They dtd so, and Evans refused to take it,
They again consulted their attorney and
| were instructed to go up and take posses
G. Kcsty and Chas. Mcbride started for the
hall and were met at the head
of the STAIRS by Mr.. Evans and Others
The members of the army were notified
that they could not come up, whereupou
Henry Hassert attempted to pass Mr., Ev-
ans and was hit in the face and kicked.
No resistance was offered, but they re-
| turned again to consult their attorney, who
advised the arrest. The hearing resulted
in Mr.. Evans being held for his appearance
at court with bail of $500 After the
hearing Mr.. Evans accepted the rent ten
Gered and gave the army possession of the
| hall.
| After this conflict the Salvation Army dis
played very bad judgment, and question
able spirit for Il religious body, when on
the evening of the same day they marched
past Mr.. Evans store and up into the hall,
singing "Glory Halleluia" Perhaps it
was not done to annoy Mr.. Evans, but 1t
looked very much that way.
