F, Lerch will be in Geneva March 19, tomorrow, to swear in the newly-appointed notaries public, the list of which is printed else- where. „ — In Seneca Falls the new charter does not require that the police justice shall be an attorney and counsellor of the supreme court of this state, as in Geneva. —The Universalist Society is consid- ering a plau.to add to the church prop- erty on the \west so as to get\ a for social gatherings an school work. -The beautiful Eastern -Star degree was conferred upon t°vo ladies in Ge- neva Chapter last Tuesday evening, after which refreshments were served to about fiftyr The plans for the new Y. M. C. A. building are being ^discussed. The trustees.desire to build laijger, and to secure the building against the possi- bility of another fire. —Seneca street is in Summer con- dition again, and all the city streets have been dressed up, making the city appear much more cheerful. The long winter is abom ended. ' —The telephone' was moved from this office a few days before we took possession, but another will very soon be installed so that the office will be in touch with the whole city, -This would be very good weather in which to make a start with that new electric railroad from Cauandaigua. So little has been said about it of late, per- haps the thing has busted entirely. 1 Electrician Place designed and put in the electric light in the store window of Dusenberry & Connif, by far the finest electric show in the-city.

It is. a pretty rough mess. Ihe accumula- tion of all last summer.fall and winter, —Report reaches here from alon|g the Hudson River that the railroad tracks are now free from ice and water, and that trains are again running nearly on schedule time.' More damage was done down that way than anywhere else on the whole line, — Mr. and Mrs. W. A, Barlow hand- somely entertained the old euchre club at their home on Castle street last Tues- day night, and the rooms were full from eight to twelve o!clock. Playing for mementoes; of course; we do not call them prizes any more. —W. H. Partridge's store cat, nearly 22 years old, died yesterday. In times past it was a hojy terror-to dogs that came its way; and as for rats, they just looked at that cat, then died. Owing to its many virtues it has gone to that \place where all good cats go. —W. J. Barron is now nicely settled in his new place in the Prouty Build- ing and finds that the change is greatly to his advantage. We can look across upon him now, and see some of his hustling. The world is full of hustle now; the drone must take aback seat. —The big prices for fruit that have prevailed the last three or four years has given buoyancy to the nursery in- terests, and there w_ill be a large pack- ing in the Geneva Nurseries this spring, It is a little early yet. April is the time for most activity, and dealers will soon be here. „ —It will be seen by the closing line in the dog tax law that the act does not apply tcf the City of Geneva. The fees as heretofore go into the city treasury under the old arrangerneut, so that dog owners may now make a grand rush at the city' treasurer's office and secure their tags for 1902, * —We have been told that Messrs. Seybolt aud Malette have sold their tar macadam patent, The machinery here for making and mixing it belongs to the city we belieye. The new board of public works is not under obliga- tions to use that material, but it is good stuff just the_ same. — At St. Peter's Church on Tuesday nights out-of town preachers occupy the pulpit. This evening the Rev. H. G. Coddington, of Grace Church, Syra- cuse, will be the preacher Mr. Cod- dington is one of the successful rectors of Syracuse and is recognized as one of the strong preachers of that city. —It was a compliment to Mr. Dan- iels, Gen'l Pass'r Agent of the Central Hudson, when the military attache of the U. S. Legation at Tokio, Japan, wrote him for three copies of the En- glish map of Manchuria, which was published in Four Track Series No. 28, and which was mentioned in a 'former issue. —The bills against the city for guard- ing and quarantining Geo. Fairfax's home on Lewis street are all in. They aggregate $119,50. That is not exorbi- tant, but it was all unnecessary, ac- cording to the opinion of the residents on that street. The\ bills were laid over last week. We think the precau- tions were wise. —Owing to the advance in prices of meat at wholesale, Geneya butchers are skirmishing among the farmers for their supply of beef. It is time that farmers gave more attention to the rais.- ing of cattle for beef as they did in for- mer vears. They can get $8.00 percwt. for good dressed beef any day —not for old cows of course. —Geneva paving bonds to the amount of $52,600 were sold last Friday night, N. W. Harris and Co. of New York be- ing the highest among five bidders, There were two sets of bonds, and they brought $101.03 for the $31,150 set, and $100.17 for the $21,45 set. There was one other New York bidder and three in Cleveland, Ohio. —During the heavy south wind of last-Sunday morning, the waves from the.lake broke over the sea wall along the north beach, sending the spray clear across the roadway and in some places clear to the canal. The lake is very high yet, much higher than it is proposed to maintain it by the_ new bulkhead at the outlet. — We have seen Geo. Fairfax in the street. He says his case was small pox all right, but that it was so very light that it amounted to nothing-no other members of his family contracted it. Anyway they are all right now, and the precautious taken will be approved by all citizens as they come Ifco under- stand the condition of things. —The coroner of Cayuga County in rendering his verdict on the death of the five men killed in the wreck near Aurelius, recommends the New York Central io at once double-track the Auburn division of the road, so as to avoid all future accidents of that nature. It. is a wise recommendation, and should be heeded by the company. _^In talking with an intelligent car- penter the other day, he says that the increased cost of house building is not so touch\ because of an hour shorter day but the cost of lumber. Hemlock that used to be bought for $13.50 per 1000 feet is now $18.50, while pine is st ill higher in percentage of raise. This is an advance of nearly fifty percent. -We hive a large stock of regular sized envelopes, all high cut.^peeially inmaniila andwhites, f^Uwers legal envelopes; that we should to to have early orders, for and will work them off very.cheap at present, giving as good work as any office in the county, The purpose is to make room Z * £ge and complete new stock of paper. \ ' - _William Knight W bis sonare Clearing away the burned block.

The insurance orftbe building has not ***•\*»•£ «ed, and until that is done Mr. ^night can make «vo move nor cau he plan for it. —1» the report of the year's work here, the Salvation Army finances show a deficit of $54.44. They show 246 outdoor and 446 indoor meetings, with total attendance at the later of 28.146. They have visited 5023 faunilh-s, saloon visitations 520, helped 17 needy persons, and given two free suppera. The number of members now in good standing is 40, with seven local officers. —The New York Central Iron Works Company was incorporated pefore the death of Wm. B, Dunning, its founder, not after. The capital stock was $100,- 000, the heaviest part of which was taken by W. B. Dunning, S. K. Nes- ter, E, N. Squires, son-in-law of Mr. Dunning, L. D, Collins and 0. J. C. Rose. There have been changes since then, the Dunning estate being out of it. —Suit has been commenced against the City of Geneva by William Biggs for a fall upon an icy sidewalk on February 10th, at about which time there w-as scarcely a clear walk in the city. His claim is for $5000 damage, for his left arm broken or dislocated at the wrist. His attorney is John Gil- lette, a well-known fighter in the courts. City Attorney O'Brien will defend. —Last Tuesday evening we received announcement of the death of Mrs. Walter Scribner Schuyler, occurring at the home of her sister, Miss Henrietta Gardiner at Ithaca on the Saturday be- fore. She was the wife Col. Schuyler, U. &. A , now on duty in Cuba, She was born in Geneva. She was a direct descendant of the strong old Van Rens- selaer family of Albany, and niece of the late Gratz VanRensselaer. —E. W, Sharpe says that one day last week he had to sell eggs three cents a dozen less than they cost him the day before, the tumble in price was so rapid. Seven days marked a differ- ence of just 13 cents a dozen in the re- tail price. Parties were here last-Wed uesday trying to establish a contract price of 20 cents a dozen the year round, the same as with butter supplied to families, but it would not work. —In order that no useless expense be piled up against the city, we suggest to all parties that the matter of the ap- pointment of Secretary to the Board of Health be dropped where it is. There is but a small amount of money in- volved—the office is not a large salaried one, hardly worth litigation, certainly not worth stirring up bad blood and ill feeling. The best way is always to congratulate the winning man and let it go at that. What do you say, Mr. Russell? ffi —There is in New York a very healthy association for the protection and preservation of the Adirondacks. The trustees are all prominent men, mostly professional, among whom we see the name of W. G. VerPlauck,well remembered here. The association in- vokes legislative action to prevent the cutting of roads through the forests, taking out any trees, and to prevent the leasing of any lauds. In fact, everybody is in favor of preserving the Adirondacks just as they are, —W.I.Higgins of Ticonderago writes this pleasant line : '\Dear Bro. Parker —In your issue of March 11th I notice the announcement of the consolidation of the ADVERTISER-GAZETTE. I have been a subscriber to your paper ever since it started, and was a subscriber to the GAZETTE for many years. I am pleased that the two papers are united and that the business is to be continu- ed by you. I wish you the greatest suc- cess, which you certainly merit. Fra- ternally yours, W. I HlGGINGS.\ —Two relatives, nephews we believe, of Mr. John D, Patterson, one from California, are here and are getting in readiness to settle his affairs, take an appraisal, etc. His estates are very large, but his investments are mostly in California, lands. Mr, Patterson was a very affable gentleman, and treated every visitor with kindness and consideration as did his good wife. He lived to good old age, as all such men deserve. We fear that Mrs. Patterson will not long maintain her home here, being all alone in her deep affliction. —The directors of the.Y. M. C. A. will act cautiously l&bout rebuilding on an enlarged scale, at least on an ex- travagant scale. The time.is not ripe for it. Money is not plenty in Geneva, and our people haye too many irous in the fire. No one could find any fault with the building and its equipmeut as it stood before the lire, and to rebuild as good will meet the wishes of every- body. To do that will require the con- tribution of about $25,000, and that is no small sum of money in these \times. The conservative members of the asso- ciation are inclined to move with cau- tion, and they are right. —The office of the Geneva Gazette has been purchased by Edgar Parker of the Advertiser and the two papers will be combined under the title of the ADVEETISER-GA^ETTE. It was a grace- ful and proper thing for Mr. Parker to continue the publication of the Gazette, so long the property and ideal journal of his brother, the late Stephen H. Parker. Under his management the combined paper will be honorably, conscientiously and well conducted, and there need be no fear of its success. Mr. Parker is^a veteran in the news- paper business and his old-time friends wish him increased prosperity in his new undertaking,— Seneca Falls Be veille. —The editor regrets very much that in the hustle of business last week, so much work in making the changes be- ing crowded into a few days, that he quite forgot the Rippey Class annual banquet last Friday night, and while it- was going on. followed by so\many bright addresses, he was at home, \resting from his labors.\ He attended'' one of these banquets, two years ago, and can honestly say- it was one of the most enjoyable affairs ever gotton up— so. many Geneva gentlemen beifig present, and in the assembly haU of the First Pres. Church, Where all are so cordially Welcomed it could not be other than en joyable. This was no ex- ception, and again he regrets, deeply regrets missing it. ~ The ladies of Geneva and vicinity •will be deeply interested in the new departure made by the J. W, Smith \toward . i-ebuildiugrf-D» y ^oods Company. They have put in a complete lirie of ready-to wear Millinery Goods, which 'wi}l be open \for inspection on Wednesday, • March 26th. They will have the latest styles of hats, ranging in price from one dol lar to ten dollars, the latter price being the highest. In time they may employ an experienced milliner to trim hats. Mr. Wagner has been in New York for ten days looking after this department, and ladies are requested to call after next Wednesday and criticise the se- lections. It is an entirely new depart- ure, and it may be that they will in time make it one of their leaders. Knights Templar Banquet.— About eighty Sir -Knights of Geneva Com- mandery assembled at the Temple last njght, to greet Grand Sword Bearer E. D. Anderson and give him royal wel- come. There was no degree work, so that after the business session the Com- mandery was closed and all repaired to the banquet hall, at 9.20 o'clock, and the clock struck the hour of midnight —low twelve—as the last word was spoken. Every station was filled by its own officer, from Commander to Sen- tinel. The drill was almost perfect. Among other things the Cominandery accepted an invitation to attend Divine Seryice on Easter night at the Univer- salist Church aud listen to a sermon by Rev. Mr, Baner. The visiting Temp- lars, all Grand Offieers or Commanders were received with honors. After the banquet, Com. C. W. Fairfax intro- duced Em. Sir Anderson, the distin- guished visitor, as Toastmaster. In ad- dition to his own excellent remarks he brought up.in turn Sirs Geo. F. Loder of Rochester, Past Grand Commander, Sirs. Wehnes, Hofmann, E, A. Stal- wold of Rochester, Rogers of Palmyra, E. D, Miller, P. R. Cole, C, D. Bean, of Geneva, Em. Sir S. Nelson Sawyer of Palmyra, who made the most telling address of the night, Sir John C. Coats of Palmyra, Sirs Parker and W. S. Moore. Lack of room will not admit of giving even a synopsis of the ad- dresses. It was a very pleasant con clave, and encouraging to the craft. LATE LOCALS. —Last night thtre were four propo- sitions before Geneva people: The Re lief Corps Supper in the armory ; Po- litical Equality Club in K. of C. hall; regular conclave of Geneva Command- epy-officer; aud Delia Fox at the the- atre, —The recent painting of the interior of the New York Central Station here is not an indication of a new station building right away. But the next time it is painted, for heaven's sake give us a more cheerful color. That dull red gives one the blues. —William H. Stead died at his home on Main street last Saturday morning, aged 72 years. He was a member of St. Peter's Church, aud was devotedly attached to Rev. Dr. Rankine and his family who have always been so friend- ly to him. His funeral occurred yes- terday morning. —Our local market report shows con- siderable change today, -Eggs are now down to i 2 1-2 cents a dozen wholesale. Wheat is up two cents to 87. - Barley is out of market, and oats are down a peg. Mutton is way up. while all other meats are about the same, Butter has d/opped off a little too. —The village of Shortsville was swept by fire yery early yesterday morning. It started in the Cottage Hotel, aud in less than two hours had . wiped out the heart of the business portion of the village. AH were wooden .build- ings, aud the fire swept on until vacant grouud was reached and there was nothing left lo feed it. The loss is fully $40,000. aud the insurance may foot up about $16,000. Everybody there be- lieves it was of incendiary origin, and they have suspicions of the man who applied the match. Millinery Opening. The Easter Millinery Opening of Misses Doty and King will be held on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. March 19 and 20. Demand Royalty.-F. A. Malette ap- peared before the Board of Public Works last Thursday evening, and stated that if any more of the Malette- Seybolt tar-macadam is laid in Geneva, a royalty of ten cents per square yard would be demanded by them. The board is opposed to paying it, and is inclined to use the plant constructed at the expense of the city, as stated else where, io making© or mixing stone, tar and concrete together. President Van Auken is very frank and outspoken against paying any royalty, and says that rather than do it he would prefer that paving be suspended. We believe this tar macadam is in use in various Canadian cities and members of the old board went there to inspect it, of course at the expense\ of the city. It does look like an unfair shake, Eighth Anniversary.—It was on the 11th day of March, 1895, that Meyers Brothers opened their clothing stoie in Seneca street, Geneva, and next day planted an advertisement in the Advertiser. Last week Tuesday was the eighth anniversary. It has been a steady climb up the business hill with them, year by year,and their prosperity has been honorably earned by a uni- form system of one price to all, no devij ation. They' are now started on the eighth year. They haye a long lease of their present store, and may buy the block if it is ever in the market, cess to them. To Old Gazette Patrons. Numbers of letters.have reached this office from old patrons of \the Gazette complaining that they have not re- ceived the paper for some weeksj and for which they had paid in advance. It is a very sorry mix up. The' old paper suspended with the issue of Feb- ruary 21st, none having been printed since that date. The legitimate suc- cessor is priuted for the first time today. We cannot undertake to fill out the contracts entered into by our predeces- sors, they having the money, and leav- ing not even a sheet of paper to make the accounts good, and not a dollar in . money, We do not know how many have paid in advance, varying in sums from 50c io $1.50, but these sums must be collected from Miller & Lyon, the late publishers—they have the money and should refund it. If they pay the money over to the present publisher, he_will be glad to place all the names on the list, and send the papers regu- larly again. The Water 'Works Extension. We had a counsultation with Mr. Chas. Bunge the other day on the sub- ject of water works improvement. He helped to put in the old plant, and at that time argued that the street mains were too small. He says now that in- stead of putting in pipes 12 inches in diameter, they should be two feet, and the reservoirs enlarged. This be says will not give additional pressure, but the quantity will always be there in case of fire. In'Seneca street the pres- sure is about 80 pounds, and to increase this a higher point of land must be pro- cured for the reservoirs. Mr. Bunge used to be a friend to the steamers, but he has changed his mind. With these large pipes, the quantity of water behind, and active hose depart- ment, he believes that Geneva would be as well equipped as any city of its size in the country, Without fire cis- terns we can hardly see where a steam- er will be serviceable, but of course we bow to the superior wisdom of the wa ter and fire departments, only suggest- ing that while the improvements are being made they shall be adequate and permanent. THE J. W. SMITH DRY GOODS CO. A New Departure.

A Sound Currency is all right, but Jef- fersonian Simplicity returned to us would conduce to the happiness and prosperity of the masses. Therefore .we adopt the old motto of the Gazette, which every man and woman will agree is sound. \Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty. We nail it fast today, and there let it stand *'until\ the earth shall be no more.\ FARM FOR SALE OR RENT: Forty acres, adapted for trucking, fruit and poultry. Located between Geneva and Waterloo.
