Sunday morning Jan. 11th the
Rev. Z. X. Beecher, pastor of the
EIlnira, n, Y, Park church, deliver
ed sermon prepared with especial
reference to the religious life and
character of the late Mrs. Olivia
Langdon. The daughter of Mrs.
Langdon, Mrs. Samuel l.. Clemens
OF Hartford, Conn, was unable to
be present and therefore arrange
ments were made for her and the
members OF her family to hear the
sermon by telephone. The long
distance apparatus was placed in
Mr.. Clemens home in Hartford and
Manager Eastabrook placed it also
OH the pulpit of the Park church,
where it was concealed by flowers.
The line went by way of Syracuse,
Albany and Springfield to Hart
ford, distance of $50 miles. The
experiment was completely success
full the entire service being heard
distinctly by the friends in Hart
ford, and, at the same time, by
friends in Buffalo.

Judge Mayer, of Clinton county,
has refused to grant a liquor license
to woman. He says that women
have no busines behind bar deal
ing out liquor to men, and that
running saloons is not their mission.
There is great deal of truth in
that statement, and Judge Mayors
action will be generally commended.
A woman who goes into the saloon
business is minus all the traits that
go to make up womanly character,
and saloon run by woman would
be likely to do more harm than half
dozen establishments with men
behind the bar. The Judge, in re-
.jecting the application, said that he
did not relish the idea Of having a
woman brought into court for violatr
ing the liquor laws, because he
would be obliged to deal with her
with the same severity that he would
deal with 4 man. Women should
not be encouraged TO seek an open
ing in such a business, and this
ruling will go great ways toward
preventing it.

Jacob Lorah ex-county treasurer
has appealed from the county audit
and will have the statement examin.
ed by the court at this Feb. term
This is the first time in the history
of Sullivan where the figures of the

and undoubtedly the rulings of the
court upon this document will prove
beneficial to our county officials in
the future. 1t perhaps may turn
out for the best, so far as examina.
ton is concerned.
This will not interfere with the
publication of the figures of the
statement as presented by our coun
ty auditors, the first week in Febru
ary.

recently purchased team of mules
and an entire outfit for doing heavy
hauling of James Walsh of this
place is having pretty hard luck
During the latter part of December
one of the mules unfortunately
calked itself and has since that time
been unable to work and at this
writing Mr.. Sergeant has about
made UP his mind to put an end to
the animal. The leg is swollen
very large and the hoof is most apt
to come off which will render the
mule worthless for many months.
Mr. S. feels very badly over his i'll.

The following is very truthful
remark: The man who grows up in
his own town is apt to be regarded
as a boy by his elders until he is
well started down the declivity.
The stranger who comes into a place
is more often pushed to the front
than the young man who has grown
up with the town. This is often
times the reason young men become
dissatisfied with their home sur
ronndings and long to cast their lot
in other quarters.

"Toppy" is the latest society word
for anything stylish. This word is
used considerable among horse
jockeys. In speaking of their horse
they say he is quite toppy, meaning
that lie is altogether good looking
horse. Jockey and society agree
on the meaning of the word and the
latter undoubtedly gives it its right
meaning while it would be more ap-
propriate for the jockey to term 1t
"tumbleover.

The Supreme Court OF the State
has decioed that the Pennsylvania
game laws were only meant to pro-
hibit the killing of game within the
State during the closed season and
do not apply to game brought into
this State from another, thereby
multiplying the effect of the provision
in the law which makes the having
of game in possession during closed
season prinaa facie evidence of a
violation of the law.
