Mr. Editor:-After a neglect of
some time / will again write to
your valuable paper the happenings
in our neighborhood. -
Although | have not written we
are just as much alive as ever. We
have stood the winter all right so
far, as most people had feed, but
some are getting rather short now.
The stock generally is looking very
well. The cold weather has been
worse on sheep than other stock as
sheep in this country are used to
plenty of grass, therefore, when it
comes to feeding them dry feed they
hardly know what it means.
Lincoln county has had quite a
lot of cold weather this winter, but
from what our old neighbor, J. d.
Mower, writes back from New Mex
leo we may think we have para.
disc comparing 20 above zero to 20
below and snow two feet deep,
don't care for some. If you please,
Lincoln county is good enough.

standing, the pounding of the horses
have caused good deal of damage.
1t has been suggested that a few
thousands of dollars would save the
$125,000 pavement for many more
years of service, than if no particular
attention was given it. The few thou
sands of dollars would take up every
block in the city and relay it upon
new bed, and the result would be the
same, fine, smooth pavement that re-
suited in the finishing of the contract
when it was originally complete.
This work could be done after the
sewage contract is finished and after
opportunity was given property own
ers to replace service pipes, so that
there would be no necessity for again
opening the streets for many years.

SERMON WAS
GREATLY APPRECIATED

The Rev. Krumm, of the Baptist
Church, of Cedaryille, gave to his peo-
pie last Sunday evening a very in
teresting and instructive sermon. The
audience was large and attentive
The minister's theme was Cause
and Effect. 1t was illustrated by the
pouring of liquid a broken vessel,
vegetable, and linen. Sin, having
broken our body and soul, the reshap-
ing of the broken vessel must be done
by the potter who made it, by the
power of God, who created u.s. Christ's
spirit is the only remedy for spiritual
coldness.
Age may weaken our body and we
may become worn out like old linen,
but we can be clean and white. AS
dirt stains the linen, so sin will stain
our soul; only God can make them
white. This with each object, spirit
ual truth was forcibly illustrated.
Peace comes to the converted soul.
A strong and touching invitation was
given to those not on the Lords side
to take stand for Him.
How short the service, but how in
spring! 1t was truly an hour of
worship. May the Rev. Krum be a
soul winner for the Master.

GETTING THE
STREETS IN SHAPE
What Will Be Done with
the Paving?
IN BAD SHAPE NOW
Many Think the Pavement Should
Be Taken Up and Relaid
in Spring.

The work of putting in the sewage
disposal system has played havoc with
the paved streets in the business sec
ton. Upon every one of the paved
streets, the deep trenches have been
cut, and the result is that all of the
streets are in a very unsatisfactory
condition. 1t is said that much of the
block that has been replaced by the
Hudson Terminal Construction Com
pany, which is doing the sewage work,
is only temporarily relaid, and that
the block will be taken up and put
back in proper shape. 1t is not quite
certain that the contractors have this
in mind. But can the trenches be re-
covered with the block so that the
street will be in proper shape?
Engineer Clyde Potts, who is en-
ployed by the city, says that it is a
most difficult matter to replace paving
after the streets are broken, and that
in New York City, where precaution is
taken with such work, satisfactory re-
suits are not obtained.
People who have given the matter.
of street repair very careful consider
alton, are of the opinion that the re-
laying of the blocks over the trenches
will not result in smooth, well paved
streets. These people are of the opin-
ion that the entire pavement should be
taken out and the block properly re-
laid by competent contractor.
1t is pointed out that the asphalt
block pavements in Bridgeton, have
cost the city something over $125, 900.
The block has shown that it is dura-
BILE, and that it is little worn from
the traffic upon it. However, the
streets have many times been broken
for gas and water pipe, and wherever
there has been an opening the place
is easily designated either by sunken
surface or raised hump
1t is also noticeable that there are
many depressions in the pavement in
which water stands and that the sur
face of the streets is very uneven. At
points where teams are constantly

IN DAYS OF
LONG AGO
Chas. c. Rynick Has Many
OldnRs lies.
PRICELESS TREASURES.
Has Furniture That Was Used Half
Century Ago.-Books, Maps
And Other Things.

A collector of curios and historic
relics, Charles G. Rynick. North
Laurel street, has an invaluable col
lection, and he is constantly adding to
it.
Mr.. Rynick has an apartment in his
home set aside as museum, and he
has many articles of old furniture
books. papers, maps. etc.. all of which
are carefully labelled and catalogued.
Recently Mr.. Rynick applied to the
Park Commission for the custody o. a
chair that was in~the effice of the old
Cumberland..Nail and Iron Company
and was used for many, many years
by the late Joel Fithian, a.bookkeeper.
Mr.. Rynick had previously secured
the desk. The Commission allowed
Mr.. Rynick the control of the chair.
This furniture was in use for more
than two score years. Old time books
in the office. were also given in the
keeping of Mr.. Rynick In his collec-
tion, MIR. Rynick has innumerable
memorandum books. valued volumes
OF history, etc., and he regards them
as priceless treasures.
Mr.. Rynick has given particular
attention to the collection of articles
connected with the old iron works,
which nearly century ago was a
leading South Jersey industry.

BETTING ON
THE ELECTION

There are quite good many election
wagers being made just now, and in
Brldgeton considerable money has heen
posted. One of the largest bets made
here is 5000 even upon the result of
the Gubernatorial election. Three
wagers of $lOo each have been report ted
and there have been numerous smalle r
bets.
Practically all the betting is upon an
even basis, no odds being asked or
given.
Reports from Newark are to the
effect that the betting is 10 to in
favor of Wilson. and that much money
is being wagered.

USING MATERIAL

Much of the timber taken from the
old factory buildings along the river
front of the City Park property, has
been utilized in the new wharf build
ing. Much of the other material is
now being placed along the racebanks,
where the water has somewhat cut
away the earth and weakened the dam.
The work is "cribbing" and greatly
helps the appearance of the raceway.

There will be an exposition at
Cincinnati, Ohio, August 29th, to
Septemb Der 25th, celebrating pro-
gress in improvement of Ohio River
navigation, and presenting to the
world the vast natural resources and
industries Of the Ohio Valley and
Of the South. 1t is earnestly hoped
that Mississippi will bee represented
in that exposition. 1t il rare
opportunity for Mississippi To show
to the world what she is producing
in agricultural. horticultural and
manufactured products. They
want the best that w are produc-
ing.
Monroe county should have an ex-
hibit along with the collections
from other counties of the State.
There is no better way to advertise
the advantages OF a country than
to display its products. There is
then no longer room for doubt, hut
the evidence becomes a matter Of
fact. The material proof is pre- sent
ed and conviction at once con-
vinces and leads To emigration and
investment. 1t would he wise for
some of our wide awake people To
stimulate the collection of an ex-
hibit for display at Cincinnati next
month.
