1t is a subject Of remark that so
many fruit trees in different parts OF
the country put forth unusual bloom
this Fall. The blooming OF trees in
Autumn is considered by many an
omen of evil, but it is only one of the
vagaries of nature, and need not dis
turb any one. Many of the deciduous
trees this year dropped their leaves
early, doubtless owing to the persis-
tent wet weather, and when the sap
rose a second time new leaves and
bloom put forth. Almost every
Autumn some trees are seen in bloom,
but this year there were many more
than usual.
Early Monday morning DIR. Tai
IMAGES Tabernacle in Brooklyn was
burned to the ground. This is the
second time in its history the building
bias been destroyed by fire. This
Church was probably the most famous
Protestant Church in America, next
to Trinity in New York City. 1t was
built in 1873 and cost over $4,000.
The organ which was one of the largest
and best in the world, cost $4,000.
1t included chime Of bells, trumpet
and various other novel appliances.
The cause of the fire is attributed to
Lightning. The church will be rebuilt
without a doubt.
AS an exchange we'll says it is
worth while to save your home paper
aud have it bound. A few years will
make it the most entertaining and
instructive volume you can possess.
All the laws of association make it
more or less history of yourself and
friends. Names, dates and facts are
preserved for you in the most essential
form, Over it you may cry at your
miseries, laugh at your follies, aud re-
joice in the steps which may have led
TO prosperity. 1t gives the history of
your town and county, which is but an
epitome Of universal history. If you
can't save the papers, you can cut out
what items you wish to save, and
paste them in some old book. The
best plan is to buy a scrap book.
Clarence L. Hazard, of this city,
has prepared new design for postal
card which, by invitation, has been
forwarded to the authorities at Wash
ington, The stamp in the corner is
facsimile of the reverse of a penny,
in place of the head of Washington
as now used The top of the cards
reads: United States of America.
Postal card. Good to any point in
the United States or Canada" The
usual admonition, Nothing but the
address to be written on this side" is
omitted, and in its place lines are
drawn to prevent anything but the
address being placed on the front of
the card On the ends of the line are
For" CITY or Town" County and
State" The designer thinks this will
facilitate the clerks in the postal SER
vice in reading the addresses.
