Has Two Attractions.
Rudolph A. valett, Of Front street,
has beautiful rambler rose bush in
full bloom in the garden at his home
which is one of the sights of New Cas-
tie at present
The bush is covered with a large
number Of full blown roses and hun
dreds of buds just coming out. The
vine trails over a fence, ana with its
dark green foliage and crimson blos-
SONS is one of the prettiest sights
imaginable and one of which many of
Mr.. Nallett's neighbors have availed
themselves.
Mrs. Nallett has a substantial addi-
tion to her household pets which came
to her a few days ago in "a peculiar
manner. She saw an old burlap sack
in the street in front of the house and
upon examination was surprised to find
that it contained a cat and six kite
tens. The family had evidently been
left there by some person who doubts
less had no further use for them. Mrs.
Nalletts humane instincts prompted
her to take the animals in and care
for them. This arrangement met with
the warm approval Of the mother cat
and her offspring and they set about
Immediately to make themselves per-

were given away but four furry little
fellows remain, two maltese and two

the game with Madison A. A. 1t is
highly probable that Smead will be be-

The game promises to be a good ons

crowd. Interest is beginning to run
high here now and the boys are meet
ing with plenty of encouragement which

tial turn.
Church Affairs.
The Home Missionary societz1 Of the
New Castle M. e. Church will nheet at
the home Of Mrs. Edward Challenger
on Monday evening.
The hour of holding the Sunday
school services of the Methodist
Church has been changed from the af-
ternoon to $50 in the morning. Dur
ing the hot weather this hour will be
observed in order to avoid the heat OF
the day.
Struck Clay Bed.
While digging for the sewer pipe in
front of the Ries property yesterday a
deposit of blue clay was struck by the
workmen employed on the operations.
1t was so heavy and clammy that they
found great difficulty in getting it off
their shovels. The trench is now about
seven feet deep, so that the labor Of
throwing this clay out is considerable.
An effort will be made to complete the
work and have the street leveled of
by Sunday.
There will be a special meeting of
Lenape Fire Company on Sunday af-
ternoon to dispose of important BUSH
ness. All members are requested to be
on hand.
