bridges to the Columbus Bridge Co
One of the bridges is to be across Deel
creek at the Marsh Hart crossing, and
! the other across Goose creek on the
line between Salem and Cottage town
ship. The two structures will cost in
the neighborhood of $500. The Board
also approved bonds of a number OF
township officers-elect.
A defective flue in the building Oc-
cupied by like & Ling caused a fire
on Wednesday evening that would
have resulted in heavy damage had il
not been discovered in time and
promptly extinguished. The Begin
ming of winter is mighty good time
for verybody to examine their fiues
and take extra precautions to guard
against fires, Utterly unprotected, as
the town is, fire in one of our busi-
ness blocks would be disastrous.
The "Whaleu show at the Mo. Pac.
depot on Monday caught a great many
quarters. And it was really pretty
good show of its kind-the kind being
about the worst on earth. The bal
loon ascension came off according to
program, man and a dog going up
in it and jumping from it with para
chutes when it was up about half a
mile. We felt sorry for the dog, al
though he landed safely, as did his
master, in the Merriman pasture near
the mineral well.
The attendance upon the religious
services Thanksgiving day was larger
than usual, the Presbyterian church
being entirely filed. All the minis
tiers who were in the city participated,
the sermon being preached by Rev.
Freed. In accordance with the good
custom a collection was taken for the
benefit of the poor, and $3.50 cents
realized. The disposal of the funds
was placed in the hands of a COM
mittee composed of representative
from each of the churches.

Everybodyin town, where he is well
known, as well a. in the neighbor-
hood where he lives, was very sorry
to learn of the loss suffered by Mr.. f..
w. Arnold in the burning of his home
last Friday; and nearly every body
gave substantial token of sympathy by
contributing literally to a subscription
that was started for his relief. Gener-
ous-hearted neighbOrs are entertain
ing the members of the family as guests
until the new house, which will be
commenced at once, can be completed.
AS already announced, the first of
the series of lectures for the benefit of
the lola Schools will be given by Pres.
w. A. Quayle, of Baker University,
Friday evening, Dec. II. Pres. Quayle
is too well known to the people of
lola as an able and eloquent lecturer
to need any words of commentator,
and everyone will be amply repaid
even if a special effort is made to hear
him on the subject "a Visit to the
Saxon" The lecture will be held in
the Opera House; admission with re-
served seats % cents. AS one of the
prime objects of these lectures is to
provide our pupils with the oppor-
tunity to attend entertainments which
are both entertaining and instructive,
the pupils of the schools will be ad-
mitted for 10 cents, sum which We
trust will enable every pupil in the
higher grades to attend. Tickets and
reserved seats can be secured after
Wednesday Dec. 10, at Anderson &
DeClute's store. The teachers of the
school have made no special effort TO
interest the general public in this un-
dertaking as they felt confident that
whatever was of advantage to our
schools would interest the people of
the town and they have no hesitation
in asking that Pres. Quayle have an
to lecture to full house.

RECENTLY the HERALD printed an
account of how two Williams tried to
get two girls to go with them to Den
yer and how they were prevented by
kilograms sent to a relative who came
to Phillipsburg and took the silly
girls home. Mrs. Ollie Royce Of the
Smith Centre Bulletin copied the
HERALD's article and said:
We heartily endorse the sentiments
of the above article concerning the
injustice of public sentiment toward
the girl or woman who sins compared
to the way the sins of her betrayer
are looked upon. For a woman to
step aside from the path Of purity
and right means the cOldesb censuTe
of the world and bitter self cOndem-
nation, and it is only by a life Of self
sacrifice and rIgid selfdiscipline that
! she can ever live down the cruel sus-
! picions and criticism of the world
while her betrayer, if any notice is
/ taken of his action at the time, it is
only a passing one, and that by a lew
/ people. We think however the world
! is growing little better IN this dlrec-
ton and we hear Oftener than Of yOre
( the honest protest of an indignant
editor, as is the case in the present
article We know something Of the
persons spoken OF here, and know that
/ the girls were well raised and come
of good families, and that they were
not strong enough to Withstand the
fendish promises and protests Of the
rascaIs who had not even the man
hood to keep the first promise of pro
! lection. Girls ask your mothers be

cause to doubt being a right one

The Herald, of PhilIipsburg, is out
In a lengthy editorial defending its
position regarding the Alliance con-
ventiOn. The under current of Mr.
Dague's meaning would seem to be a
disappointment that farmers have de
cided to go into politics. Perhaps the
wiley editor thinks like the Capital,
that 1t viii be the republican party
against the mob. ''-KtTJUiu I91depen-

In the article referred to by the In

olution and that about printing. For
three years the HERALD has been the
constant champion and defender OF
the farmers interests-printing proba-
bly, fifty times more favorable matter
in that line than the Independent
The HERALD has said nothing that
could be tortured into an expression
like unto the one the Independent at
tributes to the Capital. The HERALI
has defended the Alliance IN the past
and proposes to In the future when
