| On Thursday afternoon we took
| pleasure trip to Woodward in company
with landlord Rook of the National
Hotel, who kindly furnished one Of his
elegant nags for the ride. Considering
the jovial company we were in, the liue
weather and the beautiful sight which
the fertile fields of lower Penns Valley
presented we may say that it was a rare
spell Of recreation and enjoyment for
the writer.
Snow fell at various places ih this
state on Tuesday. At Clarendon quite
snow storm prevailed and ut Will
iamSport the fine flakes of snow made
people hurriedly get out their winter
wraps. Nearer home we learn OF snow
having fallen at Coburu station on
Tuesday afternoon. Coal fires conse-
Quently take the places of door and
window screens and overcoats crowd
o&t the linen duster.
Several heavy thunder storms, that
seemed to come from all directions,
swept over tins valley on Saturda!
night. Heavens electric battery play
ed for fully two hours and the flood
gates Of the skies seemed TO be opened,
the Iain pouring down in torrents,
and converting the two inch thick
dust on the roads into mud in short
time. The day had been hot and sui
try, but after the rain the air was fresh
and pure.
Some of our subscribers have heed
ed our reminder of few weeks ago to

ever need reminder. When we ask
our patrons TO pay ur we particularly
mean the delinq uent customers whose
names appear on our books with debt
of three, four and five years. standing.
And to these we would again say that
we need the money and the sooner they
remit the better for all parties concern

atives and other friends of Mrs. VIM.

while she was from home. The Occa-

Of her children went to inform her that
she was wanted at home, Upon her ar
rival the lady was truly surprised to
see SO many visitors, but matters were
soon explained and a sumptuous supper
and good time in general was bad.

this section again on Monday evening,

people made ready to attend the enter

"A. J. DeVoe, a meteorologist at
Hackensack, n. j., predicts decidedly
cool weather for this summer. He
says that the prevailing winds will
blow from east northeast with cloudy
weather about four days out of five and
June will enter cold and cloudy, follow
ed by thuGder showers on the 5th, and
a very cold northeast storm on the Sth.
And men whe embark in sea shore en-
terprises during the month Of June
will be very likely to be out and injur.
ed, for it will be a cold, wet month,
with strong easterly winds, and Ice
hergs will drift unusually near the
New England coast and overcoats will
feel comfortable for the Fourth Of July.
The weather this week would Ger
tainly substantate the gentleman's un.
pleasant prediction.
