Parties of two will be most popular this season, The building of the new wing at the Hudson River State hospital is going to be a big thing for Pokeepsie laborers. Superintendent Pilgrim said yesterday that the work would be begun early in the spring and would consume a year and a half to complete it, One hundred or more masons, carpenters and laborers of this city will be given employment, The contract has not yet been signed, thh delay being occasioned by an investi gation of the sureties of the successful bidders, Suflivan & Clark, of Bing hamton. Their bid is $174,000 which is considered a rather low figure at which to do the job and realize a profit com mensurate to the risks. , This firm built the Matteawan asylum and lost money. Subsequently they failed but they claimed that their failure was due not so much to that contract as to certain real estate speculations, However, their credit is good at the present time and they are looked upon as a reliable firm, but in making such an important con tract as this one too great care cannot I be taken on the part of the state by its I representatives. j The frost is said to be all out of the i ground again, There is no doubt about * it in the minds of those who have to i travel through some of the side streets. New 'temr Hopes and Wisliee. Blossoms fsde as frost spprosches. But the buds will reappear; Gloom that seals the days departure Meets the morn with eager cheer. Iilghts and shades each other follow, and sadness meet and blend; And the New Tear hope and wishes Crown the dying old year’s end. Though we strive to know our fortune, Hnman eyes are powerless; We can only gange the future With the glass of hopefulness. So with wishes bright and merry All the world as brothers meet, Trusting In the new year’s promise For our happiness complete. .

A young lady said Saturday evening, at the post office: “I realize how import ant it ie to read magazines, for I have just learned that it is not proper to eat bananas without using a fork. The peel must be removed by a domestic, then the fruit cut in pieces with a fork, and eaten by aid of the same implement.” “Indeed!” remarked her companion, “suppose you don’t have a n ^ domestic?’’ “The papei\ don’e say,” was the ; awer, “but it then would be better, of course, not to eat bananas.” A Sixfeeu-Tear-Oitl Eloper.
