AT meeting of the township committee
Tuesday evening Chief of Police Burr was
instructed to allow wheelmen to ride on the
sidewalks where the streets are torn up for
the sewer.
A handsome new cathedral stained glass
sign has been placed in front of the west
End Hotel, and has attracted much atten-
tion for it's beauty, being the most snowy
sign in town.
The township committee has served a
notice on the contractors for the sewer
that unless they make more rapid progress
with the work they will take it into their
own hands and complete it. One-half the
time allowed to do the work has already
elapsed, while only about per cent OF
the work is completed.
The township committee met Tuesday
evening to open bids for the sale OF $40
ono of sewer bonds The following bids
were received: Union National Bank OF
Mt. Holly, $1,000 at $1O2.5O; G, R. Will
limos & Co., Philadelphia, the whole al

par: Bioren & Co., 302 Chestnut street
philadelphia, the whole at $1O101. Th'
bonds were awarded to Bioren q Co., al
they were the highest bidders. Their bic

These bonds are for 80 years, with th'
privilege of paying them off from the ear

That the dairy industry located along
the line of the Pemberton and Hightstown
railroad has attained remarkable growth
during the past thirteen years is shown
by the following figures. During the

Gus points, or about 40 car loads OF u
barrels each of so gallons capacity. This
enormous quantity of milk figured al
three cents per quart would net the pre-.
ducers $18, 1854 Prior to thirteen years
ago the milk production along this roac
was about 20 per cent of its present con
dition, and still there is room for other
to engage in this profitable business.

ards are being cured daily In
Spite of Themselves.
No NoxiOus Doses. No Weakening of the
Nerves. A Pleasant and Positive
Cure for the Liquor Habit.

1t is now generally known and under
stood that Drunkenness is a disease and
not a weakness. A body filled with poi
son, and nerves completely shattered by pc
riodical or constant use of intoxicating liz

destroying the craving for intoXlcants

from business by this wonderful "HOME
GOLD CURE" which has been perfected
after many years of close study and treat
ment of inebriates. The faithful use ac-
cording to directions of this wonderful
discovery is positively guaranteed to cure
the most obstinate case, no matter how
hard a drinker. Our records show the
marvellous transformation of thousands OF
Drunkards into sober, industrious and up
right men. ,,-on .,Dc,,

This remedy is in no sense a nostrum but
is a specific for this disease only, and is so
skilfully devised and prepared that it is
thoroughly soluble and pleasant to the
taste. so that it can be given in cup OF
tea or coffee without the knowledge o.
the person taking it. Thousands of Drunk
ards have cured themselves with this
priceless remedy, and as many more have
been cured and made temperate men by
having the 'cure" administered by loving
friends and relatives without their knowl-
edge in coffee or tea, and believe to-day
that they discontinued drinking OF their

The Rroken Dam.

The question of repairing the broken
dam in Mount Holly is matter that is
being considerably discussed. The own
ers of the premises are not likely to do
anything, because they have no interests
involved that would justify the expendi-
ture of money necessary to reconstruct 1t.
Such a course is not demanded in order to
secure supply of water for the town,
and the persons to be directly benefited
by such course are the ice men.
1t is probable that they may make ar
rangements to gather ice next winter
from the pond at Smithville. They are
also considering the feasibility of digging
out certain portion of their coyes, which
they think can be flooded and ice secured
Irrespective of the uncertainty Of such
an undertaking, these propositions will
all cost money. 1t would be well at this
time if Messrs. Durand, Schrayshuen and
Shinn could get together and ascertain
what the probable outlay would be to
carry to a successful termination the va
rious schemes which are being contem-
plated. In this way it could be ascertain
ed how much money would have to be
expended for them to gather ice under
the most unfavorable circumstances. The
ice men would then be in position to
make proposition to our citizens to have
the dam rebuilt.
With such knowledge in their posses
sion they could state what they would
give, ask for general contributions from
our citizens, and if possible secure an ap
preparation from the township and owners.
There is do doubt but that our citizens
would contribute quite literally, if only
for the pride of restoring the beauty of
the creek, which has brought Mount Hol-
lv to the attention of many people
throughout the country. The standing
idle of four ice houses and two mills, to-
gether with the loss of water power
sufficient to attract some industry to To-
cate here, should be prevented if posi-
BILE
This suggestion is simply business
proposition to find out "where we are at,
and the sooner the matter is put in some
definite shape the better. If the ice men
take the initiative they will probably find
our citizens willing to assist them.

Reunion of Volunteers.


The first reunion of the Thirty
Regiment New Jersey Volunteers, was
held at the residence of their old COM
mander, Gen. E. Burd Grub, at Edge
water Park, Wednesday afternoon, when
were present two hundred survivors of
that regiment, together with their wives.
This regiment is better known as
"Grubb's Chickens, and great deal of
credit is due to Comrade t. F. Rose, of
Camden, for assisting the General in gath
ering his poultry together.
The large sloping lawn of the Generals
was arrayed in bunting, and Jennings
band, of Camden, made music for the oc-
casion.
At the luncheon at noon the General ad
dressed his old comrades and in an off :
hand speech held close attention He
said he was grateful he had permitted an
opportunity to command another regiment
90 by and taken command of the Thirty
seventh, as it was one of which any com
m ander would be proud. 1t had been
raised by an impulse of spontaneous pa
triotism, and owing to the fact of its vol
unteering no draft W as ever made in New
Jersey. The regime mt was loaded on cars
at Trenton, and imme diately sent to the
relief of a regiment at Petersburg.
A number of views of the scenes where
this regiment did most of their fighting,
and which were taken by Mr. Rose while
visiting the battle grounds, was presented
TO General Grubb and attracted a good
deal of attention, the old comrades stand
ing around and pointing out the exact
spots where they had done picket and
other duties.
The officers elected were President,
Gen. E. Burd Grub; vice president, Les
lie D. Ward, Newark; secretary, Ambrose
Asay, Newark; treasurer, Robert Brown,
