versary, last Saturday, at Paxson's Grove.
Rev. q. II. Thomas, Of Philadelphia,
made an excellent address.
Col. Thomas p. Miller, of Doyles-
town, has been appointed to complete the
index of assigned judgments up to the be-
ginning of Prothonotary Helpers term,
under direction of a committee appointed
by the Court.
From the Easton papers we learn that
Justice Steiner, of that city, has commit
ted for trial Boatman Agnew, of Erwinna,
Bucks county, for cruelty to his mule.
The animal baked on the canal and to
force him on Agnew tied rope around
its tongue and pulled 1t. The mule back
ed and part of its tongue was pulled off.
An officer saw 1t and arrested Agnew.
The agitation respecting the supper"
and clover" routes for the railroad from
Hartsville to New Hope continues. At a
meeting held few days since, commit
tee reported that the committee waited
upon the Reading officials on Monday and
endeayored to impress upon them the
advantages of the original route surveyed
for the road, that on the north side OF the
mountain. The officers replied that they
had given the people along the lower
route an opportunity to build the road
for the $240, 900 bonds and $4,000 stock
and that they would have ten days after
the final survey was made to accept the
proposition. The committee thinks it
hardly likely that these and other re.
quirements can be met by the people
advocating the lower route, and hope to
eventually have the road built on the
north side of the mountain.
The Bristol Observer says: Judge
Yerkes, in an opinion rendered In the
Cronthamol case for selling liquor to per-
sons of known Incorporate habits, sounds
note of warning TO bartenders, which
they will do well TO heed. The Judge
says:
'sWe think it is time that bartenders
were taught that they as well as their
landlords are criminally responsible for
violating the liquor laws, and this case
presents facts which invite an inquiry that
may result In some very valuable instruc-
ton to this class OF agents. In view OF
the repeated cases OF public and notorious
drunkenness and consequent indictment
and conviction of individuals as public
nuisances in this court, we think these
