His Hand Badlv Cut.


 A curious accident befell Officer Jessie Seay, one of Selma'E faithful guardians or the peace, yesterday, by which his right hand was badly cut and he will be days. MT. Seay was seated in a chair in the big barn which does duty as a mar ket when Mir Charles Swimberly came up from behind and before the officer was aware of his presence suddenly jabbed MT. Seay with his finger causing that gentleman to jump high into the air and throw his hands upward. As ne did this MT; Swimberly supddenly regretted his little joke and undertook to catch his hands, but did not succeed until a bad flesh wound had been inflicted by the snarp tp putcher Knife which he held in his MT. Seay immediately secured the serv- Ices of a physician who dressed his in- having penetrated to the bone. The cut ting was purely accidental and MT. Swim oerly expresses sorrow because of the oc- currence.

1.-THE Choice"

The most authentic traditions re-
garding the name Dlngman's
"ChOice" point to the fact that it orig
mated with Andrew Dingnan, who
was born at KinderhOok, N. Y, in
I'LL, and settled at the Choice about
1895. He first built log cabin down
by the river bank and about 1850
built a stone house just below where
the Reformed church now stands.
He was a pioneer, cut the first brush
to make room for his cabin, and built
fiat boat, for ferrying purposes,
with hand AK. This ferry crossed
the river somewhere above the
church. He also built a grist and
saw mill on the creek. One of his
sons, Isaac, when about 10 years old,
while riding horse from the stone
house to the barn, was shot by on In
dian in ambush, and died while being
ferried across the river to q fort,
which stood on the Jersey shore.
For the reason that Dingman had the
choice of locating where he pleased
he, after selecting his future abode,
named it his choice, by which the
hamlet was generally known until
about the time a post Office was es-
tablished when the name Ferry was
added in its stead.

An Old Pottery.

An ancient pottery, of which the
Oldest inhabitants have no knowl-
edge, has been discovered at Ten Mile
River, n. Y, not far away from
Mast Hope in this State. Broken
ware was found in the vicinity
which lead to the excavation being
made when the remains of a pottery
were revealed Pots underneath
which was a furnace, were found
briclIed in amt arched over top.
Pieces of earthenware which seem
to have been in the form of vessels,
have been fonnd along the river
near here. They bear curious marks
evidently made for ornament and
were glazed on the inside. No
doubt it was the work of the abort.
gnes, and may have been done at
the pottery just discovered
