The borough Of Olyphant is now uu-
dergoing series of internscins con.

peaceful community. For the past
few years the residents of the central
portion Of the town has been endeav-
oring to establish sewer system.
Councils have been petitioned, sub

but all to no avail. A recent act of the
Legislature authorizes the formation
and incorporation Of sewer companies
for the draining of boroughs and towns
in this commonwealth.
In December last some of the largest
property holders in the central portion
of the town, conceived the idea Of
forming company under the terms Of
the late act Of assembly and applied
for a charter. This Mt once aroused the
ire of Coterie Of spectators who
have been protiting considerably of
late by securing street railway fran
chises and dsposing of them to rail.

man Amerman, aud ex-Couuty Audi
tor Dolphin, which resulted in the de
laying OF the charter until last week.
At a meeting of the council held on
last Wednesday evening, the sewer
company was given the right to lay its
pipes throughout the town, and the or
dinance was signed by the burgess and
advertised in yesterdays papers. When
the speculating leaders of tine anti.
sewer movement learned of their de-
feat, they at once called an Indignation
meeting and succeeded in securing the
attendance of few sincere property
owners.
One of the sewer company when
questioned with regard to the matter
said that he has $1,000 worth of prop
erty in the town, which would be
doubled in value by the establishment
of sewer system. Everything pos

From the observations Of those officers
Of the Thirteenth who accompanied
Major Wright on his tour Of inspection
in the regiment, it is safe to say that
the several companies passed better
inspection, in the aggregate. than they
did year ago There was a marked
improvement in attendance, there be-
ing but four men absent out OF a total
of 4S7, officers and men, The four
abSen tees are credited to the First
battalion, three in Company B
and one in Company D. The
latter company. however. had
every possible man present an in all
fairness should be credited with 100
per cent. present, The one absent lies
dangerously i'll at Moses Taylor hos
pital, which made it q physical impos =
sibility for him to be present. Captain
Barnard presented to the inspector a
surgeons certificate in this case and it
is possible that General Goblin, when
the case is brought to his notice, will
not allow the company TO DO marked
down under the circumstances. There
was no svalid excuse why the three
men of Company B should be absent.
The Second battalion had every man
present, Every officer of the field and
staff and line wasiin attendance. The
general appearance of the men, the
condition of clothing, arms, equipment
and accoutrement. with the single ey-
ception of one company, was almost
perfect. In company drill and ex-
tended order but five companies ex-

Rev. A. Ben.oliel spsaks at the Second
Presbyterian Church
Rev. A. Ben .Olisl spoke be fora n
large audience at the Second Presby-
terian church last night His address
was in the interest of his brethren in
Jerusalem who, he says, are oppressed
by the encroachments OF the Turkish
and Russian governments.
He prefaced his remarks by saying
that Jerusalem is to all Christians the
most beautiful and interesting country
on the globe. The world is bound by
obligations to take a practical interest
in the Jews. They are preserved
wonderfully by God to again be the
apostles of the Gospel to the heather
world; for this they are, during their
dispersion, being acclimated to every
zone of the earth and learning every
tongue and dialect.
OF the many conversions made
among the Jews to the Christian
faith Mr.. Olisl spoke at considerable
length, and related the notable conver
sion OF q Jew whom the Sultan OF
Turkey had made Bey. The winning
over Of such man is thing unprece-
dented either at Jerusalem or else
where.
In conclusion he spoke Of an evan
gelistic hall rs Jerusalem's greatest
want, but contributions received would
be expended for educating Jewish mis-
sionaries and In other directions tC
