AARONSBURG.

ASS. III. Diehl has returned from
Colorado we can now get facts of ones
life beyond the rockies.
Christmas day of 1885 was made un-
usually pleasant for the little folks OF
our town. All were invited by DIR. p.
T. Musser to come to his Office and re-
ceive a present. which consisted ct.
piece and sticks of candy. No less
than $50 presented themselves for their
gifts.
Is there not sufficient reason for peo-
pie to form new resolutions on "a day
like last New Y ears day ? Think of
the beautiful weather. It was actual
ly so spring like that even the trees
came very near turning over new
leaves.
Overseers of the poor of Haines twp,
have hit upon very wise plan. They
intend to enlarge and generally fix W.
the old academy building on the hill
north of town for the occupancy OF
several of the Townships pauper fami-
lies. To save rent is the idea.
We were surprised in the afternoon
of New Years day. to see a pack OF
Indians enter our town from the west.
Some were very savage looki ing. They
had their war dance on Aaron's square,
after which they went in the direction
nf Woodward, no doubt to get some of
Noah IS best.
Wish I had three more names, then
/ would have the required number to
make up the singing class for Prof.
Bietly. Come Ladies and Gents, this
will be my last attempt to raise class.
So says AL. Slower.
Youth, as we'll as childhood, middle
age and old age were very creditably
exempli6ed by pastor DeiIZler the same
being a part of the programme of the
Luth. festival on New Years evening.
All the near relatives and few
friends of Mr.. & Mrs. L. Z. Slower,
were invited to their place for dinner
on the lest day of the old year. Some
how my vest don't fit right" an ex-
preston made by j. G. M.-Esq., at.
ter dinner.
A home of my own, you bet, says
Henry FL. Weaver since he bought the
Michael Harper property Immediately
west of the new Reformed Church.
Henceforth no more moving for Henry.
Happy were all the little boys and
girls OF our town during the past holi-
day season. Santa Claus was especial
ly kind to them, inasmuch that each
one was the recipient of some present.
New Year resolutions such as II
have quit smoking, drinking, swearing,
etc., are apt to be fit for aught else
than paying stones. ANOTHER.

which the town hall bell sent out at a
bout half past two O'Clock on Tuesday
morning. In short time dozens of
men, equipped with lanterns, Joined
those already on the stleets and the
sound of wild and rushing waters soon
told them what was wrong. Elk Creek
had by the recent heavy rains swollen
so mighty stream AMI had broken o.
yer it's banks at different places along
it's course. Peters dam, east Of North
street, had broken and drift dam had
formed near the foundry, which caused
a large stream to flow down over Gep-
hart's field and the alleys sand cover the
eastern part of Nam street, from d. A.
Musser's residence east of the bridge
up to A. Harter's grocery with about
six inches of water. The cellars in that
section of town were consequently fill
ed up and many of the residents there
lost some Of their provisions. The
foundry was one of the principal vic
Tins of the mad current, some OF it's
si1ebuildings having been carried away
together with lot of lumber and TASKS,

on that street were submerged by the
swollen stream and he foundations or
some of the buildings suffered consider
able damage. Most of South street, to
within few rods OF the writer's resi-
dence, corner of Penn and South was
converted into sheet of water. barring
the way to reach the house on the is
land, south OF the bridge. The occu-
pants, Josiah Long and family, were
imprisoned on the upper story until day
light and some OF his live stock in the
