Albert Lambert is improving the
appearance of his place by tearing
down the building between his place
and the Town Hall. 1t has been used
for various purposes in the twenty
years since it was first built. At one
time it was the home of the town

more of nuisance than anything
else.
Halloween passed if rather quiet
ly all things considered The elves or
sprites who are supposed to be abroad
at that time were not as malicious in
their mischief as they have been at
times heretofore. A few old wagons
and sleighs and farming implements
were dumped in front of the Normal
building. The boys say they meant
them for the Ladies' Rummage Sale
but forgot where to .eave them. The

ride and left in the middle of the street,
while the village truckman found his
wagon some distance from home. The
High School students gave a Mas
querade at which some OF the "ladies"
did notseem to understand managing
their skirts, being inclined to get
their feet tangled in them, leading a
careful observer to Judge that they
had not worn them long. The Nor
NAL students being more sedate and
serious, stayed, it is supposed, quietly
in their rooms and studied Psy-
chology and Methods of Teaching.

The house on the old Heath place
was burned to the ground one day
last week. This was one of the Oldest
houses in town, being built by one oil
the early settlers, who expected that
locality would be the center of the
village. 1t was owned for many years
by Wells Heath, who raised a large
family of children there and whose
body with many Others of his family
lie in the cemetery near the boundry
of what was originally the farm.
After his death his son lived there for
several years, but the place since then
has gone down rapidly. 1t was oc-
cupied by Joe Fonyeau at the time it
burned and be and his family are
left homeless. Mr.. Fonyeau was in
the field some distance from the house
and happening to look up saw flames
coming from the roof. He rushed
home and carried out the beds
and bedding, but in the excitement
placed them too near the building
and they caught fire and burned en-
tirely up. Doubtless they could find
many articles at the rummage sale
which would be useful to them.

The Rector of $. Andrews wishes
to correct a fa SO impression made by
his Honor the Mayor. at the last
Council meeting
Although this question was not
mentioned in his conversation, he is
by no means in favor of the "Shoot-
ing at Sight" of al unmuzzled dogs,
without giving owners the opportuni-
ty of redemption at the pound.
But he did make the point, and re-
peats it, that in future there should
be no discrimination in favor of I'M
taxed aud unregistered dogs. And he
urges that prompt steps be taken to
meet out to owners of the many un-
licensed animals without muzzles, the
same justice which has been given
to those who habitually comply with
all requirements Of the law.

man she Is to marry than upon her own
health. The woman who enters upon

Weak woman are made strong and
sick women are made we'll by the use Of

feebling drains, heals inflammation and

FROM THE FIRST WARD.

The demand for tenant houses be-
comes greater each year and not a
house to be had at any price. When
one becomes vacated, there are a dozen
applications for it inside of "a hours
A little money invested in property
here in the First Ward will pay big
interest and would be a safe invest
ment.
William Mehan has purchased a
brick house on Swan street, which he
intends to occupy April first. Billy"
has always resided in the First Ward
up to within few years, since which
time he has been a resident of the
Third Ward. 1t seems that every body
who has once resided in the First
Ward is anxious to get back again.
The river is lower at this time in the
year than ever before. So we are told
by old rivermen. The ice is very heavy
and as the cold weather has continued
so long, all feeders to the river have
frozen up and the supply has become
exhausted. We have had practically
no snow this winter and but very little
rain. Several complaints are heard of
cisterns being exhausted here in town.
Muzzle your dogs About a couple
of weeks ago u mad dog entered our
city and it is reported that he bit about
90 dogs. This is enough to do great
amount of damage, and it is we'll for
all owners of dogs to make double sure
and cage up as we'll as muzzle their
dogs. There are too many useless
dogs running our streets. The half of
them, we will venture to say, the
owners never pay any tax upon.
Less than four weeks now until the
first of April. The winter has been
remarkable ono on account of the
absence of snow and about all the real
winter weather we have had was in
the month of February. Work has
been rather plenty around the city
through the winter. The Lambert
Vile Rubber Company have had good
run all winter; in fact. this busy mill
is seldom idle. The work Mt the =. Il.
r. shops has been on the increase
and the prospects are very favorable,
we are informed, for busy season.
OF course this is nothing more than
could be expected, as under Repub-
lican administration we expect to see
smoke coming out of every mans
chimney. 1t seems strange for us to
relate tho fact, although there are still
few who stick to the old adnge,
THE rich are getting richer and the
poor poorer" Circumstances and con
ditions fail to prove these assertions.
Perhaps the rich arc becoming richer
each year, but we all know the poor
mans condition has greatly improved
in the last twenty five years. We
could cite hundreds of instances to
prove our assertions, but time and
space will not permit.

SUDDEN DEATH OF HENRY n. FLuCk.

Der of tho Hunterdon County Bar, died
suddenly at his residence in Fleming
ton, on Sunday evening, March 3D.
instant, from neuralgia Of the heat.
Up until December last he had been
man of unusual yigor, but ut that time
he was attacked with nervous af.
lection, which, although it did not
keep him from his business, gave him
some trouble. A few days previous to
his death he began having paroxysms
Of neuralgia, which caused him to suf-
fer excruciating pain, but these were
not regarded as serious. On Saturday
evening he went to his home with tho
intention of remaining quiet until
Monday. About nine o'clock on Sun
day evening, after having passed
comfortable day, he had severe
seizure, which went to his heart, cans-
ing instant death.
Henry A. Fluck was born in Bucks
county, Pa, on January %, 1849, and
was n son Of Levi and Mary Fenner
Fluck. He received his early educa-
ton in the public schools and North
Wales Academy. About 1867 he came
to Frenchtown and clerked in the store
of Mr.. Moses X. Everitt, who is now
Warden of the Hospital for the Insane,
at Morris Plains. In 1870, Mr. Everitt
was elected County Clerk, and he
brought Mr.. Fluck with him to Flem-
ington to act as his assistant in the
Clerks Office. During the time of his
service in that office he commenced the
study Of law with the late Vice Chan
cellor Van Fleet and Hon. John +.
Bird, and was admitted to practice as
an attorney in June, 1875, and as
Counsellor in November, 1873. Since
his admission to the Bar he practised
his profession in Pennington, and has
been engaged in many important cases.
In 1896, he formed a partnership
with his brother-in-law Willard G.
Parker, and at the time of his death
the business was conducted by that
| firm.
! He was married on October II, 1879,
to Miss Annie F. Parker, daughter Of
the late Avery Parker, of Pennington,
and has one son, Linton A. Fluck, now
at school at Lawrenceville, n. J.
At the time Of his death he was
| identified with many ipterests and
held several positions of trust, being a
director and Vice President Of the
Pennington National Bank, Secretary
of the Pennington Milling Co. and
| Treasurer of the Mallory Manufactur-
| ing Go. He was an active member OF
the Pennington Baptist Church and
much interested in all the work Of that
organization. He was held in high
esteem by verybody, and his sudden
calling away is a great shock, not on y
to his immediate family, but to his
many friends. -Hunterdon Democrat.

The professors tell us that the old
"saws" of our fathers, concerning the
influence Of the moon over the weather,
are all bosh That the moon has abb
solutely no control OF the weather or
other material things on the earth.
The pleasing fiction that fence posts
should be set when tho moon points
down; that pole beans should be plant
ed when the sign is in the "arms," so
that the vines may cling to the poles;
that potatoes and onions should be
planted on the old of the moon; that
clover seed should be sown when the
sign is at the crab; that ember days
and the trips of the Virgin; that cucum-
bers should be planted on the first
Sunday in May before sunrise by a
person Just out Of bed and before dres-
sing and the dozens OF other sayings
that would occupy too much space to
mention, are nothing but notions.
Our old friend, Col. Heath, is firm
believer in some of the old signs, and
he has Just had the truthfulness Of the
grounding day sign demonstrated to
his entire satisfaction. 1t has usually
been understood that the ground hog
did not actually come out, but it has
now been proved that such is the actual
fact A young lady taking walk
actually saw the ground hog, and the
shadow was plainly seen and we GER
tainly have had solid winter weather
for more than four weeks. All the
professors in the country could not
shake the colonel's faith now, and it is
this faith that has caused him to wait
patiently for the Spring time to com
