A MOVE IN REAL ESTATE.

Much might be said and written
about the boom in real estate in
Bloomsburg. Words cannot express
the wonderful activity with which
some people are moving. The Land
improvement Co. have, within couple
Of weeks scld nearly one hundred lots.
Not only are arrangements being made
to erect houses and other improve
ments on those actually sold, but
houses already erected in other sec
tons are actually moving in that direc-
ton. Some bright morning some
purchaser will wake up to find that
while he was sleeping his neighbor
have been furnishing tenants already
equipped with houses.
The Sherff has recently levied upon
lot with two dwelling houses on
it. They have been moved off, The
cellars were not moved and the ques-
ton with him now is where to put up
notices. Whether the houses are real
estate or personal property, and whether
the owner of the houses would be EMIT
led to claim the cellars as portion OF
the house, and how Long his levy will
hold good.

SATURDAYS STORM.

One of the heaviest rain storms ever
known here fell last Saturday after
noon. 1t came down in torrents and
flooded the streets. 1t was accom-
panied by vivid flashes of lightning and
sharp peals of thunder, and strong
wind which blew the water under the
doors of many houses. At the Nor
NAL School window sash was blown
in, and the lawn tennis ground was
badly washed.
The lightning ran along the electric
light wires and damaged the incan-
descent dynamo SO that it could not be
used for several days, as it was neces
sary to send away for needed repairs
At Williamsport man named War
rem Smith was struck by lightning and
instantly killed. West of that city the
storm was very severe, and the wires
were badly disarranged.
The storm travelled from Lock
Haven to Williamsport, distance of
twenty five miles, in eighteen minutes.
The electric light service was crippled
by the burning off of the wires.
At Scranton great damage was
done. Two large barns were struck
by lightning and destroyed. The roof
of restaurant was blown off, breaker
trestling was blown away, large store
windows blown in, trees uprooted, and
outbuildings overturned.

A ORDERLY CROWD.

On Monday night party of six
young colored men went out for a
lark, and imbibing too freely they got
to fighting about midnight on Main
street below Market and created such
a disturbance that number of resi-
dents of that portion of the town COM
planned the next morning to Constable
Woodward, and a warrant was issued
for the arrest of the party, who were
identified by several witnesses. They
were arrested by Constables Wood
ward and Laycock, and on Tuesday
evening were taken before the Presi-
dent of the Council P. S. Harman,
who after hearing the witnesses, i'm
posed the costs, two dollars, and fine
of five dollars in each case. This will
probably teach them lesson, and
they will not be likely to attempt a
forty two dollar frolic very soon again.
They were given five days to raise the
money.

The Feast Of Passover.
HOW IT is OBSERVED AMONG THE He
BREwS OVER THE WORLD.

The Jewish Passover, commemora-
ton of Israel's deliverance from Egyp-
tian bondage, which forms the basis Of
the Jewish religion, began with the
sunset of Wednesday evening, the
fifteenth day of Nissan according to
scriptural computation Of time. The
first and seventh of the seven festive
days are called holidays" known as
"Chal- Hamoed." 1t is the feast Of
Matzoe" or 'unleavened bread" call
ed in the Mosaic records, which was
instituted when the children of Israel
had left Egypt, about 1900 B. c. E.,
and now never forgotten in the long
years of history. 1t is constitution
of nearly thirty-four centuries old.
This ''Feast of Freedom" is observ-
ed by orthodox, Conservative and re-
formed Jewish congregations all over
the world alike, by attending public
worship on these festive days, and by
abstaining from partaking leavened
bread during these seven days. This
festival was the first command to the
newly-born nation, and the celebration
of this feast is imposed on the plea of
gratitude to God for the manifesto
ton of His power in behalf of Israel,
who has led Israel from the dark a
bode of slavery into the sunny rays OF
freedom.

vice of IS months at Randalls Island

has now located at Goshen, New
York, where he has very fattering
prospects. The following notice is
taken from the Middletown, IN. W
Argus.
1t is announced that Goshen will
lose, this month, one of its most skill
full and successful physicians and one
of its most deservedly popular young
men, DIR. ]. w. McCready, who pro-
poses to engage in the practice of his
profession in New York city, where
there is, he confidently believes, a
much wider field than Goshen affords.
DR.. McCready leaves Goshen with
many regrets, and his departure will be
very generally regretted. He will be
succeeded by DR.. f. F. Smith, who is
a graduate of Bellevue Hospital Medi-
cal College, and who was DIR. Nc
Cready's successor at RandalPs Island

of DR.. McCready. DIR. Smith will re-
side with DR.. Thomas, at St. James
Place. His Office will be in the rooms
over Sayer's drug store, formerly oc-
cupied by DR.. McCready.
