Interesting drills are held Tuesday and
Thursday evenings by the ncwly-elccted
officers, under the general direction OF
Capt. Van Solver. The boys are now
getting ready for Inspection, which will
occur in the early part of May, and will
be no doubt by battalion at Trenton. The
Command is also making preparation for
the season of rifle practice, which usually
comes in July. The Company wants to
take fifty men to the range this season
and qualify every one of them, and it can
be done, The coming events of interest
in the National Guard are bringing in re.
cruits to all the commands throughou THE
State.
The newly elected officers, accompan-
led by the adjutant, visited Trenton on
Thursday evening last, to go before the
Examining Board, and passed very cred
liable examination indeed. Their COM
mission will follow as soon as they are
uniformed, which will be in short time,
as every arrangement has been made to get
them In time for inspection and muster.

uotel FIe,nIngton,

For the second time 10 the history Of
Pennington three hotels are now open for
the convenience Of the local and travel
ing public. In 1855 third hotel did
business on the site of the present Pres
byterian Church.
On Tuesday last ex-Sheriff w. Howard
Lake opened his Hotel Pennington, the
Court on that day granting him license,
the place being the large and commodious
brick building known as the Capner
property, situated on the corner Of Main
and Capner streets. The genial ex-Sher-
if was on hand to greet his many friends,
and although the hotel is a long way
from completion, bis ability and perse-
verance in securing results Is a sufficient
guarantee that it will be but short while
ere Hotel Pennington will be an ideal
institution conducted on the best princi-
pies for catering to the travelling public,
with all modern conveniences, such as
steam heat, hot and cold water through
out, electric light and abundant accom-
modations for horses in the rear Of the
hotel. w. Howard Lake needs no intro
duction to the people of this county, and
those who do not know him will find II
an easy matter to do so.
We congratulate the cilizena OF Flem-
ington and NIL those who NAV eoiourn
with us that we now have three OF the
best equipped aud best managed hotels In
the State OF New Jersey to day. Demo.
