Passing through the village of
Rippon last week, we called for n
few minutes on our substantial friend
Squire Daniel Hetiebower. He and
his Industrious sons were busily en-
gagged putting the finishing touches
upon some home improvements, in
which Mr.. II. is especially handy and
has done n great deal, adding many
conveniences and comforts to his
pleasant residence. At the .'Cobble-
Stone Court" where the justice pre-
sides in neat and well located
office, the law is administered with
out fear, favor or affection, and if
Kabletown district don't earn the
reputation of being the most law
abiding in the county, the fault won t
lie at the door of Squire Hefebower
and his assistant special constable
D. G. Adams.
At the Rtppon store of Mr.. A. S.
Crittenden the worthy proprietor was
out, hut Mr.. Lewis Dinkle was in
charge, accommodating and polite,
and giving prompt and satisfactory
attention to numerous patrons.
Ont at Ripcn Station Mr.. L. NJ.
Long holds forth, adding, if possible,
to his reputation as staunch, reIi-
able business man.
Fnroute through the beautiful
BuIIsTiin section, one of the finest in
the county. we found the "Head
Spring Mills our good friend Wilder
C. Feagans busy rs bee, turning
out excellent -four, corn meal, &c.
The road to this mill is much trav,
eIed. giving evidence of a widespread
popularity and big trade, which W,
are pleased to note. Mr.. Calet
Burns is putting extensive repairs OF
the old Renuer mill short distanc,
below, and Mr.. VIM. Burns and MIR
Slipes are running it, and we have
no doubt will build up good Gus
tom. Mr.. Rowland is still the ownel
of the old Baney mill. just across Thu
turnpike. and continues to operate i
successfully, affording accommoda
ton for large radius in that section

Mr.. f. NJ. Pennock gave brief
talk about the Worlds Fair to the
teachers and pupils of the graded
school on Thursday last. He dwelt
particularly on the layout of the
grounds, scenery along the lake, the
building of each state and what was
represented in it. Both instructive
and entertaining to all. The good
behavior of the children during the
hour was remarkable, and speaks
well for the efficiency of principal
and teachers, for having them 80 we'll
trained in such a short while. Surely
the Wright man is (and ladies are)
in the right place.
