J. D. Good made a flying trip
to tho cities this week,
Dedication services at the Congre-
gational church, this evening.
MIR. F. B. Kenner intends to take
possession of his new residence in
about a week.
Tickets for the Masonic Festival,
are on sale, to members of the
fraternity only, at Goods store.
Snow covers the ground to depth
of several inches, and further con-
signments are being received daily.
The two story brick engine house
at the new elevator is about COM
pleted. This is the first brick build
ing in Morris.
Wheat is wheat and valuable oro-
perity too. No. 1 brings Sl.O6 and
No. 2 $1O3, and we are all happy
and smiling.
A telegram FROM Philadelphia Fri
day received by Mr.. R. G. Moore
announced the arrival of Messrs.
Stanton and Sutherland at s a, NJ. Of
that day. This is quick time from
Morris to Philadelphia in II hours.
In a fit of profigete generosity, we,
last spring donated several articles
of winter wearing apparel to some of
our poor friends. If they have a
spark of liberality or charity il their
composition, they will now either
reciprocate, and donate some of their
"cast offs to us. We amt proud if
we are cold.
Messrs. Adams, Giltinan and Thomp-
son returned from their deer hunt
the first of the week, and report three
noble bucks as having fallen before
their "cruel and unerring AIM or
words to that effect. A very meagre
amount of information is all that we
can obtain, but if some of the wicked
unterrifed boys in town are to be
believed there were more dears than
deer on that hunting ground.
There is a report current to the
effect that the railroad company will
cause all the buildings on their right
of-way lands in this village to be re-
moved. We have heard rumor of
about the same stamp on several
previous occasions, but as nothing
was done in the matter it is safe to
assume that they we're but mere
hearsay. It is not probable this last
is any different from the first, as it is
not at all likely the company would
wait until mid winter b5fore ordering
the removal of buildings.
There are several important sub
jects, that should come before our
Board of Trade. Is it not time we
were having regular monthly meet
ings, there is much that can be &C.
complished and we certainly think,
that sufficient interest should be
manifested in the welfare of our
village, to keep this organization
alive. Will not the officers see that
the regular monthly meetings are not
allowed to pass without making an
effort to have a quorum present for
the transaction OF business.
The Morris Dramatic Association
presented the plays "Above the
Clouds" and "Thirty minutes for Re-
freshments" last evening. AS the per-
Torrance is to be repeated tonight
we will not give a lengthy report of
the plays or the manner of presenta-
ton, reserving our remarks for the
next issue as the performers will
doubtless present the plays in a more
thorough manner tonight, although |
last nights performance was really !
excellent-yet practice makes perfect |
and there is always room for improve
