FOR hartford COUNTY:
The grand jury for the May term of

leave to submit the following report:
We have examined II witnesses; we
have found presentments and the same
number of true bills of indictment: we
have visited the county Jail and found
confined therein two persons-one white
man, charged with burglary. and one
colored man, charged with disorderly
conduct. We found the Jail clean and
comfortable. The sheriff's residence is
neat and attractive. Some improve
ments have been made recently which
add much to the comfort of those living
there. We commend the sheriff for his
taste in arranging and keeping in order
the yard and surroundings of both jail
and residence.
In accordance with instructions from
the court in reference to the County's at

within six days after the contract is
let.
Engineer Pratt estimates that the
right kind of contractor ought sto
build the bridge complete in six
months from the time the first lick is
struck which seems TO the layman a
very short time in which 10 build
such huge structure.
Among the most enthusiastic men
for the bridge n oject are President
Victor Cushwa and Secretary, and
Treasurer Edw. w. Byron, both of
Williamsport. The report of the for
mer was to the effect that in his opiu-
in ample money for the construction
of the bridge will surely be sforthcom-
ing, while The latter stated emphati-
cally that the badge must be built and
nothing short OF that would fill the
bill nj this Stage of the game.
In this connection il may be stated
that of the amount of ridge stock sub
scriptions, considerably over $4,000
are regarded as giltedge, bankabie
paper. This is nearly half of the esti-
mated cost Of the bridge, which is
placed at from 500. on to 500 90.
A brief desc ription of the proposed
bridge will be interesting. 1t Will be
built of reinforced concrete and will be
1900 feet, including the approaches,
and 80 feet wide. The floor of the
brioge will be paved with virlied
bricks, and besides Il foot path 8 feet
wide, it Will be double tracked for the
trolley road that is sure TO come after
the bridge shall have been completed
and it will also be Of a very pretty de-
sign.
" It'll regard t. the height that the
bridge will be built above the high
water mark Of the river, it is note
worthy fact that sEngineer Trait has
compiled record OF the floods in the
Potomac covering a period Of many
years, and he has designed the bridge
TO be built five feet higher than the
hiAhWater mark ever known 1t that
point along the liver.

Something had to be done. The 4 eV.
Mr. Brough he'd been pastor of the
IIardeusburg church IS years, and the
anniversary was TO be property cele-
brated. Hardensturg was small place
The church was small and the people
were poor, but after much consultation it
was decided TO give the aged couple a
surprise donation party.
1t was real donation party, with a
barrel of -four, a sack of yams, a side
of bacon, a ham, and all the other lux.
uies of Hardensburg life. And as a
crowning feature Deacon Rogers, who
had just introduced electric lights INTO
the village, had the parsonage VII ed as
a gift to the church, and agreed to turn
on the lights on the evening of the do
nation.
70 make ii all complete, he left the
parson without knowledge that the
wiring was finished, and installed a
switch on the outer wall by which
every light in the house could be
thrown on at once. Then, in the dusk
of a hot autumn evening, the members
of the Hardenshurg church brought
their gifts to the minister's door,
The parsonage was dark. Not even a
candle giimmered from window. Par
sousBrough and wife had the good hah-
it of sitting quietly in the dark on
those evenings, resting theig eyes and
discussing the affairs of the day.
Cautiously, quietly, the supplies
were carried to the foot of the front
stels, quietly the Pensioners were ar
ranged in semicircle in font OF the
parlur windows, and then, In the dark
ness, Deacon Rogers softly tiptoed up
to the switch, and with quick turn
threw on every light in the house.
The surprise was grand success.
From the parsons sitting-room came
a quick gasp and an exclamation of
dismay. The callers, waiting outside,
had glimpse of two well know n
forms scurrying away through the
glaring light, from room to room,
vainlN seeking place of retreat. And
in the parlor, beside two still-rocking
easy chairs, stood four battered shoes
and two pairs of neatly darned stock
ings. The Rev. Mr.. Brough had,heen
completely surprised.
