During the present Winter season the
snowy owl has appeared in such abund-
ance throughout this region that numbers
have been killed in localities where a
specimen was rarely seen before. An old
hunter has suggested reasonable xplana-
ton. Owing to the open Winter OF 1889
and 1890 and to the more rigid enforce
ment Of the game laws rabbits are uncom-
monty plentiful this season. and as rabbits
form the chief Winter food of the owls
the latter have migrated in numbers SOUTH
wsrd to the regions where their prey 10
abundant.

When William II. Bowers went home
on Monday evening last at nine O'Clock,
be was surprised man. About fifty or
more friends, both ladies and gentlemen,
had taken possession of the house and
things we're lively. After order had been
restored in way, Mr.. James Naylor, on
behalf Of those present, In neat speech
presented Mr.. Bowers with a handsome
and comfortable rocking chair. He was
surprised again, but managed to express
his thanks in a way that gave the gener-
Gus donors to understand that he fully APP
preciated the gift. Refreshments were
provided in abundance, Of which all par
took. 1t was late when the last good
night was given.
Samuel w. Small, D. D., delivered his
lecture "From the Bar-room to the Pull
pitt" 10 the NJ. E. Church, OF this city,
on Monday evening last. Mr.. Small is a
typical Southern man, about five feet ten
inches In height, Of erect carriage, black
hair, deep sunken eyes, rather low fore
head, and an unmusical voice. While there
were some things to mar the lecture, such as
the use of the pronoun Of the first person
singular, and the too frequent use of what
may be termed "Hot" adjectives, yet as
a whole It was intensely interesting. The
fact that he spoke for over two hours and
held the attention of the audience Is proof
of that. Some well-directed thrusts at
the New Jersey Legislature, provoked
smiles. He speaks easily, fuently and
rapidly, and many parts OF the lecture,
especially the peroration, were 10 choice
language and beautiful SMILES. The
audience numbered perhaps two hundred
and fifty. The church realized but little
from the lecture.
DIR. Farley Fisher, Of Middlebush,

DIR. Baldwin, of New Brunswick; DR.. TAy-
lor, OF Milestone, and DR.. Frank w. Lari-
son, Of Lambertville, were in attendance,
but their best skill could not avail.
