Has Bloomington a Fire BuGY

At the usual hour-near s o'clock
on Saturday evening, Pennington had
another incendiary fire. The barn be-
longing to ex-Surrogate Charles AL
paugh, on the road leading to the
cemetery, was discovered to be on
fire, and the few neighbors who lived
near by had hard work to get the
horses and COW out of the burning
building. All his oats, hay and oshgr
contents, including about forty chick
ems, were destroyed, and the loss is at
least 81 200 with no insurance, which
falls pretty heavy on Mr.. Alpaugh at
his time of life
Mr. Alpaugh is hard working man,
and has met with financial reyerses
through his kindly heart allowing him
to too freely aid others, and the whole
community feels for him in this last
reverse of fortune.
1t is strange that something cannot
be done to catch the perpetrator of
these fires. The surrounding ciroum-
stances of both the Pennington fires
aud the three recent ones at Three
Bridges, would lead to the belief that
the same hand did them all. Mr.. AL
paugh has no enemy, and is man
universally liked by all, and it can
only be the work of some maniac fire
tiend who could toucb the match to
his barn Hiatterdon Democrat.

Stories Of conspiracy at Manila
are disquieting, but they need not
cause alarm. Native unrest, possibly
aided by some Spanish influences,
must continue to bubble, at least until
Aguinaldo and his supporters have
been entirely vanquished in the field.
This will take time, and the people
have been SO long accustomed to plot
ting against the Spanish authority
that it is not hard for the native agita-
tors to keep them at it still.
The Spaniards we're accustomed to
these plots and had characteristic
way of dealing with them, by whole
sale imprisonments and executions
that only increased the discomfort.
The plain policy of the American off
GERS is a reversal of this-to deal
strictly but lawfully with convicted
leaders only, and to rely upon the
gradually quoting influence of just
government to turn the conspirators
into peaceful citizens.
Meanwhile the military campaign
goes on with general success and there
can be no doubt that Aguinaldo's
power is wearing away. The fact that
his wife is among the recent surren-
ders indicates how closely he is
pressed. His capture or final expul.
sion from Luzon is the thing most to
be desired for the pacification Of the
country. -Phitadetohia Times.

Couldn't Change the signs.

England is said TO be the freest coun-
try In the world, but its freedom does
not extend to the alteration OF public
house sign by licensed vietualer.
This was proved ut the South Hants
Brewster court, where n brewer asked
leave to alter the name Of an inn from
The Duke of York TO The Panther.
Admiral Field, NJ. p, who acted az
chairman, asked the reason OF the pro-
posed transformation, and was inform
ed that the applicant owned another
Duke of York, some distance off, n fact
which was liable to cause confusion In
business. The admiral, however, con-
sidered II discourteouse to the brave
old Duke of Yafk. 10 put panther In
his place. Eventually the application
swasYsfused.
A similar fate attended the request
to change the name of house from
The Royal Oak TO The Radstock, Adj
mIral Field urging that Lord Rad
stock, us an eminent philanthroplst
and Christian man. might justifiably
object to his name being thus taken In

A building Burned In Pennington.

Fire of unknown origin totally de-
stroyed the large and unoccupied pot
terry building near the Lehigh Valley
railroad station in this town, at about
8 clock last Wednesday night. The
fire broke out ON the third floor. An
alarm was given by O. Kugler Fisher
from tho box at the Presbyterian
Church.
The pottery was erected by the
Smith Brothers some ten years ago.
They speedily failed in business, and
the big building fell into the hands of
the Bloomsbury National Bank.
There was no insurance upon it. A
New York man named Saegar. had 500
bushels of apples stored in it at the
time. OF course they were destroyed,
and the insurance upon them expired
five days ago. The fire burned with
amazing rapidity, and the excitement
WAS great. III

An exchange says: The hearing
of Charles Blazier, of High Bridge,
has been restored. Away last Summer
he lay down upon the green sward to
take nap. When he awoke he heard
all kinds of strange noises in his head.
There we're limitations OF newly
organized country bands, boiler fac
tories, horse fddles and many other
noise producing instruments. He ex-
perienced this unsought-for music for
nearly fortnight and then all was
quiet, but his hearing began foiling
him. Physicians were unable to as
certain the trouble. Blazier became
deafer and deafer until he could
scarcely hear anything. A day or two
ago Blazier called upon DIR. Knight,
of Clinton, who removed a large
cricket from his ear. The cricket was
dead and fattened out as thin as
paper. His hearing began to return
as soon as the cricket WAS removed
and now it has been fully restored.
