Bicycle Sulky Records.

The veteran reinsman, Budd Doble,
who drove Dexter when he made his IA
mous record years ago and piloted Nan
cy Hanks to the wire in 204 last season,
agrees that the new records are not to be
discounted because made with the pneu-
matte sulky.
The progress of tracks, sulkies, rig
ging and horses is natural" he said. The
conditions under which Dexter made his
record We're far more favorable to speed
than prevailed in the day of Flora
Temple, and Maud trotted under still
more favorable conditions than Dexter,
yet in each case the latter record was ac-
copied as standard.
Time and ingenuity may bring forth
even greater aids to speed than the pres
ent bicycle sulky and kite shaped track
have proved to be, but they must be ac-
cepted as legitimate means of lowering
the trotting record.-New York Herald

At Il regular meeting of Harmony
Grange No. Isl = of II, the following
preamble and resolutions were unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas. in view of the loss we have
sustained by the decease of our friend
and associate. sister Hannah Hight, and
of the still heavier loss sustained by
those who were nearest and dearest to
her; therefore, be it
RcSolred, That it is but Just tribute
to the memory of the departed to say
that in regrctting her removal from our
midst we mourn for one who was in
every way worthy of our respect and re-
gard.
Rcsoleed. That we sincerely condole
with the family of the deceased on the
dspensation with which it has pleased
Divine Providence to aillict them, and
commend them for consolation to Him
who orders all things for the best, and
whose chastiscments are meant in mer-
cy.
RcSoircd. That this heartfelt testimou-
ial of our sympathy aud sorrow be for
warded to the family of our departed
friend, Il copy of them be sent to the
SOMERSET REPORTER also that they be
spread upon the records of our grange.

Millions of yaiueies. Money.

Eighty million dollars il bills were re-
eeived at Atlanta a day or two ago, the
mammoth packages of money filing five
large dry goods boxes and making in all
a drayload. None of the bills was cur
rent, however, as they represent moth
ing in Gods earth now and naught in
the waters below it." They We're Con
federate bills of the rarest type. The
huge pile of genuine Confederate money
was shipped from Richmond, the former
capital of the Confederacy and is now
the property of Charles d. Barker of At
lanta. The money is of every denom-
ination issued by the departed nation,
and in the big collection are bills of the
rarest type There are bills issued dur
ing every year of the war Thousands
of them are very valuable as relics, but
the great number of them Mr. Barker
has on hand will make them so common
as to bring but little on the market
This $50 ,00N 400 of Confederate money
has been all along supposed to have been
destroyed. This is undoubtedly the
largest lot of Confederate money in the
world. Savanna News.

The big Pulp mill of the Somerset
Fiber Company in this village, which
employs about l25 hands. commenced
Monday to run on half time, or accord
ing to the established custom of the mill,
the work nights is suspended for the
present. How long the shutdown will
last is not known. even to the directors
of the mill.
The company have large amount Of
manufactured pulp on hand, and this
oyer-production without orders Is the
cause of the mill being run on half time,
and it is not improbable that the plant
will be shut completely down. One
crew now work three days of the week
and then the other or night men work
the other three days.
The company have large pile of logs
piled for use this winter and also several
hundred cords of cdgiug, from the lum-
Der mills piled in the yard and in the
new store-houscs which they have just
built.
II is most surely hoped that the bust
ness of the mills will soon pick up so
that the crew may be again put on full
time for the loss of half the time of the
men will soon be seriously felt among
the employees.

Jewish and Italian Immigration.

More than one-third of the % 900 i'm
migrants who landed at this port last
month were Italian and Jewish. The in
flow of these races this year surpasses
that of every other year. 1t is evident
that both the Italians and the Jews are
pleased with this country, and that those
of them who have been here for some
time give encouragement to others to
come. For short time the Jews of Rus
STA found some trouble in getting passage
to this country, especially from Ham
burg but when excluded from German
ports they go to Belgian. Dutch, British
or French ports, where plenty of steam
ships are at their service, as can be seen
by the arrival of so many of them here
