The lawn fete at DR.. Siggins' last
Friday evening, was a success all
round. Though the evening was quite
chilly there was a good attendance /;
the refreshments were abundant and
excellent, and the enjoyment to those
who were present seemed complete.
In the "cake walk" which was one of
the mirth provoking features of the
evening, Mr. and Mrs. Hardson were

lef with the cake.
-Advices from the big hemlock
belt of northern Pennsylvania say
that the hemlock trees on the ridges
are showing still more the ravages of
the hemlock worm. 1t is a disputed
question whether the trees will recover
or not, but it is certain that trees that
were fairly green three weeks ago are
showing decidedly brown now. Close
by the trees do not look so bad as at a
distance, but looking from one ridge
across to another they look like dead
trees.
The blackberry crop is just about
a thing of the past for this seas,n. 1t
wouldn't be proper to say the crop has
been harvested, for it hasn't. Thous.
ands Of bushels have ripened, rotted,
aud fallen of, and the amount gath.
cred is hardly a fraction of what has
gone to waste. Not nearly as many
were gathered in this county this year
as last on account Of other fruit being
obtainable. The blackberry season
was very short one this year. The
berries matured, ripened, and fell off
very quickly.
John, the 10 year.old son of ].
H. Zuendel, of German Hill, died on
Friday last, 2Sth ult, and was
buried in the Evangelical Church
Cemetery on Sunday following Three
years ago he had a paralytic stroke,
which partially crippled him, aud two
years ago he sustained severe injuries
from fall, from the effects of which
he never fully recovered, being par.
TALLY the cause of his death. Mr..
Znendel has the sympathy of his
neighbors in his trials, which have
been severe in the past few years.
Mr.. j. II. Hardisou handed us q
curiosity in the shape of q paper
printed wholly in petroleum ink"
that is, lux made from petroleum, the
same being produced by the Union
Oil Co, of Santa Paula, California,
where the paper, the Chronicle, is
published. The process is not yet
perfected, but that fine quality Of
printing ink will be the final outcome
of experiments aud tests now under
way by this company is an assured
fact. We calmly await the day when
every printer can have an ink well Oh
the back of his lot.
