Mr.. Edmunds of Hardwick moved
his household goods here last week
to Mrs. Reeds tenement on lower
Main street. He is a ieweler and
opens shop in the place once occu-
pied by Mrs. Reeds millinery store.

extension is in working order nu-

Recent daily papers gave cable
gram concerning the Armenian
crisis from Rev. II. O. Dwight, who
will be remembered here by many.
The more recent troubles have been
in and about Harput, the home of
the Armenian Sautikian, former
student in the =. V. NJ, and for some
time employed in the tannery here.
Carrot stories have been abundant
this fall, and here is the very latest:-
and very likely the biggest. Most
everybody knows Vern Rand, who
has been raising carrots and beets
in Hardwick this past season, hav-
ing raised $50 bushels of carrots on
just 1.8 of an acre, and 130 bushels
of mangles on 1-10 of an acre of
ground.
j. P. Marvin of West Charlestown
has been acting in the'capacity of a
solo singer in connection with the
special religious services held during
the past few days. Without Offering
any criticism as to his talent as a
singer or the question of his impor-
tation, we are lead to enquire what
10 the matter with Morrisvile singers?
LneIt abinty certainly can not be in
question.
DR.. Holbrook, DR.. Douglass and
DR.. Lewis Marshall were present and
assisted in the setting of d broken
limb sustained by Mrs. Frank Stew
art at Cady's Falls last Thursday

baby in her arms. To save the child
from injury she made efforts that re-
suited in a breaking of her limb
at the thigh.

A meeting of the Gymnasium AS
sociation, called for Saturday even
ing. was adjourned without date, 1t
seems that there has come hitch in
the securing of a place available for
the purpose, as q misunderstanding
arose between the club and Mr.. Dar-
ling whose building the organization
had hoped to find within their reach.
LATER.-A meeting is called to be
held this Wednesday evening to take
decisive action in the matter.
A stretch of village walk, that has
so far been left an earth walk, al
though in spot traversed by many
feet, is that passing up through
Academy park. Take these night
freezes and daytime thawing and
these days of mud from rains, and
the myriads of feet large and small
that go slumping through, leave an

There is one question that ever and
anon presents itself both to us here
as well as to the people of that To-
cality, and that is why those resi-
