The article in the REPUBLICAN last
week announcing the necessity Of
having "Deeds Recorded" has
stirred up many residents of the
County in that direction. A. Walsh
recorder informs us that business
has been exceedingly good for the
past few days and that several Of
his clients had mentioned the hint
given them in the REPUBLICAN. II
pays to have your name on the sub
scription book of your county
papers-if but one-the best and
the one that gives you the most in
teresting news must be decided by
you. This little incident may save
those Immediately interested many
times the price of the paper.

We sat quietly by and listened
to very interesting conversation
between a gentleman and lady
In the Hall on Friday evening
last. The occasion was hop and
of course a large number of merry
going people turn out. The couple re-
ferred to were young and the gentle
man was of LaPorte and the lady
from distance. She was doing a
good part of the talking, he not
having much to say. The subject
was "bald head" which was brought
about, we imagine, by the non ap-
pearance of a good growth of hair
on our townsman's head. He said
it was caused by early piety. Well
that's all right my young man, she
said, but at my age | have no use
for a scalp worn man and advised
him to invest in wig. A piece OF
sheepskin. she said, tared and
sprinkled with hair, would add very
much to his youth. After the con-
versation had come to close Dan
came over to where we were COM
posed, thinking of whether she
meant us, and requested no remarks.
We promised that everything would
be quiet on the Potomac and not
even his brother should hear that
the ladies we're ''going back on him"
for the want of q good growth of
half.

Postmaster General Wannlnaker

Postmaster General Wanninaker
has ordered an interesting expert
ment on a free mail delivery in
small towns. The service will be
performed by one carrier, to be APP
pointed by the postmaster. The
expense of this experimental service
will be borne by the general ap-
preparation for the free delivery,
and will be continued a sufficient
length of time to furnish statistics
as to the cost of the service, and
whether it is practicable and de-
sirable. If the data obtained war
rants the change, the Postmaster
General will ask Congress for an
appropriation to cover this exten-
sion of the service. Atpresent the
law limits the service to postoffices
located in towns having not less
than 10000 inhabitants, or where
the receipts are not less than $l0,-
600.

ESQ. Huckell of Forksville, while
In town on business Monday paid
the REPUBLICAN very pleasant call
Several topics were conversed upon,
among which were the recent cleo
tion-the building of the new road
down Loyal Sock and other minor
subjects. Mr.. II. informs us that
there is now in circulation in and
about the borough of Forksville-a
petition asking for the erection OF
county bridge over the Loyal Sock
for the convenience Of the new and
long talked of road leading from the
county seat down said stream to the
village of Forksville. The tax pay.
ers there claiming that if said bridge
is erected early in the Spring will af-
ford the grading of the road which
is to be commenced early in the
summer, of less expense to the TOWN.
ships by the use of said structure in
going to and from their work. The
petition has, and is being literally
signed by the tax payers of Western
Sullivan and they are hopeful that
the order OF the court will be a
favorable verdict.
Mr.. Huckell also informs us that
, the people of Forks twp, are still
agitating the road recently viewed
over Jordan's Hill which crosses
Loyal Sock at the mouth of Mill
Creek. This road has also been
ordered by the court and it is more
than likely that should the residents
of Forks twp, be persistent in hav-
| ing the same built, will be successful.
This will also cause the county con-
siderable expense by erecting a
bridge over Loyal Sock at the mouth
of Mill Creek.

In our mind it would be wise
act Of the county commissioners to
rase the valuation on property and
lessen the amount of mills to such a
figdfe as will require the individual
to pay the exact amount he now
contributes to the county. The
present system 10 mills on a dollar
is very discouraging to people who
would like to become residents OF
our county and until the matter is
explained to him that. we are only
assessed about one third Our value
which is also a bad showing for our
property, he refuses TO invest. We
shall urge this in chamber:

HARRISBURG, Jan. 25.-Levi
Eichholz, of Bilsburg, York county,
Pa, was arrested yesterday by

Sleighing is excellent between
this tiace and Bernice and load after
load of coal is being hauled to this,
EaglesMere and Sonestown vicinity.
1t would seem that people of the
central part of the COUNTY are burn
ing many times the amount of coal
of recent years than of the past.
The principle reason of this is the
distance of the wood timber from
the settlements, thus necessitating
nearly as much cost per month for
wood as coal. The latter being pre-
ferred.

agreeableness of taking sleigh ride
is, hitching up and unhitching his
