LLOYD PAXTON.

The death OF Mr.. Lloyd Paxton
occurred at his home at Rupert on
Wednesday morning at one o'clock,
from Bright's disease. He had been
in poor health for several years. He
was a son Of Joseph Paxton, and a
brother of Charles R., Bright, Frank
and Captain Paxton, and Mrs. George
Scott, all now deceased, except
Bright. For many years he was en-
gagged in the wholesale commission
business at Rupert with ]. H. Har-
man, under the firm name of Paxton
& Harman, but retired from business
some years ago. His farm at Rupert,
was purchased by his great-grand-
father in I774, and he resided there
all his life. Mr.. Paxton was a man
of genial and hospltable disposition,
and entertained his guests royalty at
his beautiful home. He was fond of
books and music, and enjoyed the So
ciety of literary and musical people.
He was liberal and generous, and al
ways did his share as a good citizen.
The funeral will be held at the
house on Friday afternoon at one
o'clock.

COLES FOR FEBRUASY.
The Forecast He Makes for This Month.

Prof Coles in Storms and Signs for
February says;
We have reasons to believe that the
month of February will prove a very
wicked month; and all manner of evil
doings will be recorded, as the "evil
planets" will be the ascendency, and
will occupy we'll fortified positions.
The magnetic and electric currents
will form their "junctions" on land
this month for the first time in four
months; and will cause great atmos-
pheric disturbances, resulting in un-
preceGented gales, cyclones, floods,
tornadoes, billiards, earthquakes and
electrical storms. The sea coast will
be in great danger OF tidal wave; and
all precaution should be used by
sailors" as the month has no new
moon, which is an evil omen for ships
on the sea. Wicked tornadoes and
destructive sleet storms will be almost
sure to visit many sections of this
country. The southern and western
states must watch out for tornadoes,
floods, billiards. and earthquakes.
For the past four months we have
been sounding the warning that great
meteorological disturbances would be
liable to occur during the months of
February and March. The planets
are in good position this month to
give us great surprise! The greatest
disturbance may be looked for be-
tween the Ist and 4th, the 9th and
9th, the nth and roth, the 18th and
and sand, and the a4th and sSth.
Watch out for high "gales" and
"blizzards;" snow blockades and
thunder storms, accompanied by
''lightning." Strange appearing "sign"
will appear in the Heavens; and there
will be great excitement in religious
circles, as there will be no new moon
in the month of February, and all of
the Sabbath days will be ''high food"
days! The sunrise and the sunset
scenes will be beautiful to behold.
The southern states will be in danger
of blighting blizzard. For "planting
slgns," when to trim trees and vines
and all such information, send 10
cents to Prof. c. Coles, Kingston, Pa,
and get a copy of his Storms ana
Signs.
Don't be alarmed at these terrible
| weather predictions. Half the month
is gone, and none of them have hap,
! pened in this section.

Shields Sad Plight.
A Physical Wreck and Penniless on the
Streets Of Sanfrancisco.

A feeling of pity and sympathy must
go out to the poor victim OF his own
excesses, when one reads the follow
ing associate press dispatch from San
Francisco: Rev. d. H. Shields, form
erly of Hollidaysburg, Lewisburg and
other Central Pennsylvania towns, and
and at one time chaplain in the
regular army, but who was dismissed
from service on account of drunken
ness, was picked up near the Clay
street wharf in that city in a dying
condition and hastily conveyed to the
City Receiving hospital. Evidently
want and starvation have reduced the
former chaplain to the physical wreck
he now is. Without friends or money
enough with which to secure a meal,
exposed to the cold rains and winds
and but thinly clad, the wretched man
had dragged himself about the streets
for three or four days and finally COL
lapsed through sheer exhaustion. His
pulse was very weak when taken to
the hospital, and the physicians gave
it as their opinion that he might not
survive. Shields was too weak to
talk.

Should be REFLECTED.

The Bloomsburg Democrats have
very properly re-nominated Guy
Jacoby, Esq, for Justice ofthe Peace
The people of Bloomsburg should add
the finishing touches and re-elect him.
He is particularly fitted for the posi-
tion by legal training and experience,
and his present administration has
been most creditable one. 1t is a
difficult matter in many districts to
get proper nominees for this import
ant position, one of the most import
ant of the local offices, and when a
man like Mr.. Jacoby comes before
the voters there should be a general
breaking down of party lines and a
handsome majority given HIM.
Bloomsburg is fortunate in this nomi-
ination and should have foresight
enough to take advantage of good
thing when she has it.-Catawissa

THE TROLLEY LINE is COMING.

Last Friday morning the work OF
making a survey for the Danville-
Notwithstanding trolley line was
commenced in Danville and the work
OF constructing the proposed line will
without doubt be started early in the
spring.
The survey work is In charge OF J..
{. Brown, the wellknown civil enpi-
neer of Bloomsburg, with his corps,
consisting of six men. The survey
will start in Riverside, cross the river
bridge and run out Mill street; up
Bloom street and will then follow the
public road as closely as possible all
the way to Bloomsburg and fiom there
to Berwick.
The line it is expected, will be
about IS miles long and the survey
will probably be made in eight or ten
days.
In conversation with Mr.. Brown
a representative of this paper learned
that the company who are putting the
road through are very anxious that
the lines be run as soon as possible
and it is presumed that they are de-
slrous OF having the work of copstruc-
ton commenced early next spring
Hon. r. K. Polk of this city, is
vice president Of the company and
Hon. b. F. Meyers of Harrisburg, is
president. Mr.. Meyers is closely
identified with Harrisburg and Wilkes.

Methodist Church Notes.

The special revival services con
tinue with wonderful interest. The
altar is filled nightly with earnest
seekers. The attendance is so large
that the services are held in the main

known. At night scores had to so
to the gallery. The meeting contin-
ues this week.
Next Sunday, Feb. IS, the pastor
will preach in the morning special
sermon to the young converts, in
which will be something tor those who
have been longer time on the way.
AT night he will by request preach to
the various fire companies of town.
The fremen will attend in body.

Judge Scored a Juror.

Judge Savage, who presided in crim-
inal court last week, severely scored
August Shultz, a juror, on Friday. He
sat on the case of Fred H. Price, a
hotel man charged with keeping a
disorderly house. AT midnlght the
jury agreed on a sealed verdict. The
jurors were then allowed to leave the
room and did not appear in court
until Friday morning. The Clerk of
the Courts was just about to read the
verdict, which was that of guilty, when
Juror Shultz jumped up and said: 81
don't agree with that verdict. l was
talked into it" Judge Savage asked:
"Have you spoken to any one
about the case since you signed the
verdict ?" and the juryman answered
in broken English
"Yes, talked with Mr. Juror here
and that one there" pointing to two
fellow jurymen.
"Did you talk to any one else ?"
asked the Court.
No, sir. don't believe it. / don't
think of the verdict as he did, but he
talked me out of it."
Judge Savage was amazed. He said:
81 am very sorry there is man on
this jury,and that the Jury Commis-
sioners of Luzerne county would put
man on the jury who had so little
principle as to agree to something ne
did not believe and put his name
down on an agreement and after he
had agreed change his mind"
Shultz started to say that he did
not believe in the verdict, when the
Court said
ST don't think you are worth any
thing, any way. l don't want to hear
any more from you. Go out and see
If you cannot agree.'
The jury retired again and returned
in an hour with verdict of guilty.

Is TIE MILLENNIUM AT RAND?

The Philadelphia Press sent tc
clergyman through the state the fol
lowing question:
"Do you believe that the Biblica
millennium is at hand and that the
time is ripe for the union Of denomi.
nations into onep"
In answer to the questions of "The
Press" Rev. G. H. Hemingway,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church, says:--
"The term millennium has hal
various interpretations and has been
differently understood ever since the
second century OF the Christian era,
and the Church, in each succeeding
century, has been divided into pre-
mllennialists and post-millennialists.
GAS to the second part of the ques-
tion, we may readily answer that the
immediate adoption of pre- millennial-
ist opinions by the universal Church
would not compass the union of all
denominations,as is fully demonstrated
by the fact that believers who have
accepted those views, in other points
of doctrine as we'll as Church govern
