Occupations in nonven.

A little Vermont friend aged four
stood by the window as the family ply
stefan drove by with smile and bow
for his little favorite. A moment later
she turned from the window with a sigh
and said, mamma, isn't it too bad that
DR.. Blank can't go to heaven2' "Why,
Jessie" said mamma In surprise. "What
makes you think he can't go to heaveng''
"Why, of course he won't CO." said Jes-
sic. "Theres nobody sick there, and
they won't need any doctors"
Little Jessie's original idea was told to
the clergyman, who called day or two
later, who said that he should consider
that ga knock down argument" against
the theory that we are to continue our
present occupations in the future life. A
popular physician en- hearing the above
said that he did not see why the doctors
had not as good chance as the minis
tiers, for surely there would be no souls
to save In the better land. Rochester

Judge Dixon, in his charge to the
Passaic County grand jury recently, laid
down the law in reference to sidewalks.
which will be of interest In this town.
Judge Dixon said he had been asked 10
call the attention of the jurors to the OBJ
struction of sidewalks, both permanent
and temporary. Permanent distractions
were made by buildings which encroaeh-
ed upon the lines Of the public highways,
and temporary distractions were made by
storekeepers who monopolized too much
OF the sidewalk. Every obstruction which
substantially interfered with the use OF the
public highways was public nuisance,
and the person or persons causing it
could be indicted without regard to the
municipal ordinances on the subject, ex-
cept in cases where tue encroachments
were incidents Of necessity, areaways.
--Exchaage.
Our authorities have been delelict in
respect to encroachments upon the side
walks. Numerous new buildings and
porches have been allowed to be built that
seriously encroach upon our sidewalks,
which are too narrow at best, without
these distractions.

"A few days ago, "Roundy" Colligau,
who is employed at o'Brien Bro. S paper
mill in this city, was treated to sort of
gymnasium exercise, under the supervi-
sion of Capt. "Clint. " Hurley, the veteran
of New Hope, assisted by his leutenants.
"Roundy,n while attempting to take a
rest was tied by his feet to a rope and
hoisted 10 the top of the mill 1t was
quite treat to him. AT this mill they
also have what they call 20-foot bath,
(from the machine room window to the
raccway), and a very quick one, too. We
should think 1t would be very wet one,
judging from those who have been unfor-
tunate enough to try it.

Chief Van Sewer receives tho follow
ing notice from .'The Fireman's Herald, y
of New York:
Chief Van Solver, of the Lambert
vile, n. j., Department makes the fol-
lowing recommendations to the City
Council One thousand feet of new hose
a first class FIRE alarm building inspect
or the repair of defective chlmneys the
stopping of bonfires in the public streets !;
placing OF lire escapes on public buildings
and factories /; fire drills in public schools
and factories new badges for the De-
partment; a new hose company in the
Third Ward prohibiting storage of filed
kerosene barrels ON sidewalks. From the
foregoing one would judge that the City
of Lambertville needed waking up. These
are all needed improvements, but Chief
Van Solver has little hope of their being
granted, as he prefaces his suggestions
with the remark "That the recommen-
dations of the Chief are useless, as they
are seldom acted upon" 1t is well that
the Chief recognizes the responsibility
resting upon him and makes his recon-
mendations knowing full well, that they
will receive no attention at the hands of
the Councilmen. There are too many
cities, whose wants are neglected by the
men who are elected to look after them,
and ii too often happens that some dire
calamity overtakes them before the poll
ticians are brought to a realizing sense OF
their plain duty. 1t would be well for the
firemen to exercise their best judgment
at the polls aud cast their ballot for men
who are alive to the wants of growing
city, and who are not mere ward bosses
and political heelers, irrespective OF party.

"A peach grower at White House Station
some days ago became suspicious that the
commission firm in New York to whom
he had been shipping his peaches, were
not acting square with him. Therefore,
to satisfy himself, he sent trusty friend
into the city one night along with load
of peaches shipped to this firm, and this
friend next morning bright and early ap :
peared at the commission house and
bought these same peaches at $1.25 per
basket. He took them away and dispos-
ed of them at another place. When the
White House shipper received the returns
from the firm he found that he aOGs al
loaoed but 40 to 60 cents per basket for
the t'eitt He appeared" to the dlshon-
est firm and they very speedily correct
ed the "mistake.

of the means or agents that can be en-
ployed In such cases.

Union which resulted in the meeting of
the constitutional convention, in the de-
hberations ofwhich Madison took part.
