The panic has entirely passed
here. It is only felt now by people
who are habitnally "hard up'' and
Others who wont work.
The dissolution of the law firm OF
Berkshire and Sturgiss that has
been in existence so long was quite
. surprise to a great many people.

AARON HOARD, who was thrown
from his buggy near Lock No. 0
about two weeks ago and thought to
be fatally injured, is on the fair road
TO recovery. It's doubtful, however,
If he will ever be as strong as form
'erly. Mr.. Hoard is quite an old
man.
Why don't the young athletic ele-
'ment Of town get up their foot ball

DAVID CHADwICK's display of
Japanese goods is a new and novel
idea He has department devoted
exclusively to this class of goods
and the prices are about fifty per
cent cheaper than the same goods

In another column is a report of
the condition of the bank of the
Monongahela Valley published by
the state bank examiner. 1t will be
noticed that the examination was
made five months ago right in the
midst of the panic. We can say that
at this time the bank could make a
showing more than $4,000 better.
WHEN farmers club together and
buy hay in quantities in the west it
is no more expensive than it is ordi-
narily. The drouth of last summer
was in a manner local. The western
crops are up to and in some places
above the average. This tends to
make the prices of feed cheaper.
Bnt a section is more prosperous
when it raises for its own needs.
DIR. JOHN A. MYERS has purchased
OF e. M. Grant the lot on Front street
a few feet north of the intersection
of Wiley and Front, formerly owned
by John II. Hoffman and George
Kiger, for ST., 600. The lot is 81 feet
in breadth and is one of the most at
tractively located in town. 1t is the
intention of DR.. Myers to erect
handsome brick dwelling on the pur-
chase in the near future The sale was
consnmmated through Anderson's
real estate agency.
FARMERS who a short time ago
wanted to sell all their colts and
calves at low figures are not so de-
sirous of disposing of them now.
The scarcity of feed made a scare.
The probable cost of wintering was
thought to be too much money in
the stock for profitable sales in the
spring, but the weather and the un-
precedented cropof November pas
turage has had the effect of making
owners of stock see their way clear
to wintering it at no great disad-
vantage.
THERE was to have been a special
session of the Circuit Court on or
about the 18th of this month to
make a settlement of the Watts
livery stable muddle, but very few
of the many dispositions have been
taken and of course-no dispositions
no court. Probably now there will
be no special session at all, as the
prospect is not favorable to finishing
the dispositions of the long list of
those summoned to say their say
very soon, so that the case will most
likely come up in regular order at
the February term.
If you want anything in our line,
come and see us, get cash prices,
compare with prices Of other dealers,
and buy where you can get the best
goods for the least money. 1t is
your duty to make your money go
as far as possible these hard times,
and it is little trouble and will pay
you to call and see us, and get prices
on hay, grain, ear-corn, -four and all
kinds of feed. Deliveries made in
town on all small lots without entra
charge. Leave orders at office of
Victor Mills Company.
SOME of the young ladies of the NJ /.
e. Sunday school school have been
making canvass of the town, solic-
iting those young men who are con
spicuous in Sunday schools only by
their absence to attend. Very few of
the habitual stayaways were missed,
and Sunday the report is that there
were several in attendance who had
not been there for some time, as a
result of the crusade Of the fair
members of that branch of the de
nomination. The plan seems to
have borne fruit, and should be adop-
ted by the schools Of other churches.
THE new train schedule is in effect
and it shows that several people,
complacent in their own wisdom,
