Mr. G. E. Stubbs has given US piece of
cheese made at Clemson College which is as
fine as any cream cheese we have ever tasted.

MONDAY, DEC. 10.

The Senate did not do very much
work today. The two most impor-
tant matters brought up were the me-
tropolitan police measure aud the new
militia bill.
A proposition to exempt the Camden
cotton mill from taxation for ten years
was voted down.
The police measure is given else
where.

one of the most interesting of the ses-
sion so far Some very important and
interesting new bills were Introduced

the session There vas the bill provid-
ing for the erection and establishmep t
of the State institution for the blind in
Columbia; bill making seduction a
felony; the new military bill already
referred to-; an all-important bill to
make insurance companies invest their
legal reserves in this State; the bill to
establish State reforma.ory for youth
full criminals, and mauy others of equal
Importance.
The most interesting debate Of the
session occurred upon the bill to permit
the sale Of beef in cities without license
by those Who reside beyond the city
limits An attempt to revive the town
against country feeling was made. bQt
was promptly put down by the more
conservative reformers.

THE ELECTRIC LINES.
PIckups Along the Lakeside Road-Ths
Proposed Ringtuwn Line.

Inspired by the operation of the Lake
side Electric Railway the people residing
in the patches along the line have been
making many improvements to their
properties. They evidently wish to show
the people who travel through the places
that the'patch people are like the people
who live in more pretentious places and
take Just as much interest in their prop
critics. IL is stated that a number OF
people have been negotiating for building
sites on many of the stretches of suitable
land along the line and that by next
spring a large number of new dwellings
will be erected The sections are very
inviting and the completion of the Lake
side Railway has increased the desira bility
by bringing Mahanoy City and Shenan-
doah in closer touch
There is some talk of connecting the
Lakeside and Traction lines by road
which will connect st. Nicholas with
Yatesville and which would also connect
Ellengowan with both lines.
Large forces of men are hard at work
trying to complete the park at Barry's and
| the Columbia park in time for the Fourth
of July. Both resorts are the direct out
growth Of the Lakeside Railway and the
| line will reap a harvest from fares when
the grounds are thrown open. The traffic
will be large as the owners of each PARK
will no doubt be in active competition
and constantly engaged in securing draw
ing attractions to establish a reputation
| for the respective places.
The Ringtown electric railway project
| still survives and those interested in II
still say it will be constructed. A con
tractor of Italian labor has become inter
ested in the matter and says he could put
| a large force of men at work on shorI
notice and do the grading and track work
very cheap. One of the farmers who
came TO town from the valley yesterday
said that last week a gentleman from
| POttsville visited Ringtown and opened
negotiations for three building lots neaI
Ringtown offering $500 for them and
| paying 500 down. This farmer says that
| the people in the valley realize that ar
| assurance of the construction of the line
would create an unprecedented real estate
| boom throughout the valley and it is this
which has strengthened their faith in the
| railway project

Frightening of the spirits. Sleep becomes
