sumo the air of this progressive
ace and advance along the line OF
prosperity, we can adopt the Gus
tom of our sister towns, that is to in
dulge in that fashionable and high
sounding term of having an incor-
porated company in our midst:
Messrs. Armstrong and Alfred
Kimberly,o of Lewisburg, Pa, have
formed a co-partnership or stock
company. known as the Ellendale
Lumber O. mpany. The company
$4,000 capital, and have purchased
the large timber piling and mine
props from Laundrys timber tract,
and in connection with the stave
mill expect to do a large business.

or drive a team are expected to be
in great demand. Mr.. Armstrong
moved his family here this week,
and will occupy the residence just
vacated by D. II. Reed, who IS stor-
ing his effects in his new mansion.

new home finished in a short time;
he is only waiting for suitable wea-
ther to put the finishing touches on
it. Mr.. Mitchell is also here and
has brought with him an expert
machinist from BellefOnt, Pa. We
heartily welcome these enterpris-

extend to them the cordial hand of
fellowship.
r. A. Wood has been appointed
to the high and honorable Office OF
Justice of the Peace of Ellendale,
which place has been ably filled by
his predecessor, J. A. Ellegood.

ourselves thatno Squire was needed
here. as we have been without one
for so long a time, and no violence
or disruption has occurred among
our peaceful citizens which would
require the authority of an officer
We wish to congratulate our friend
Wood and hope that his honor may
reign supreme, as he is the only
available of capable Republicans
in the town to fill the Office
