SMALL Pox IN GARDNER.-There have been
during the past week many rumors OF the
spread of this alarming disease in various
towns in this county. The reports, as it usu-
ally happens in such cases, are undoubtedly
much exaggerated, and the fear of danger I'M
questionably exceeds the fact. One case has
been reported in the town of Webster, and two
or three others in the south part of the county.
The Fitchburg Sentinel notices several cases
in its section. The town Of Gardner has had
an alarming visitation one case having proved
fatal Most of the cases. however, are of va
rioloid, and that of a mild type. The schools
have been discontinued and the town author
tiles are doing everything possible to prevent
the spread of the disease. 1t seems to break
out where least expected, and very many are
exposed before it becomes known The neces-
sity and Importance of vaccination will be read

MISCELLANEOUS.
The Buffalo Courier says that young lady
in that city who had been led to believe, from
the attentions of young gentleman, that he
was about to propose, upon his declaration that
he had no such intentions, dashed a bottle of
vitriol in his face instantly destroying the
sight of one eye, and hopelessly injuring the
other.
The coroners jury on the explosion in the
hat factory at Brooklyn have given Il partial
verdict and adjourned for one week The tcs-
timony shows that the explosion was not
caused by the freezing of the pumps, as was
at first supposed but by the closing of the

ARREST FOR FoRGERY.-On Thursday af-
ternoon young man calling himself G. F.
Harrison, alias Charles F. Harrison, and hail.
ing from Providence, presented at the Lincoln
House forged check Of A. B. Dixie of Provi-
dence, on the Traders Bank of that city, for
1922 II. He was referred to Mr.. John Boy
den, broker, who suspected something wrong
and procured his arrest. Three other forged
checks were found in his possession. 1t ap
pears that the young man is of very respecta-
Bile parentage, and of good education. Upon
the death of his father he came into possession
of considerable property, and went to New
York, where he obtained employment as agent
of the firm of Smyth, Sprague, & Cooper. On
business visit to Providence, he fell into bad
company, lost money by gambling, and, to re-
trieve himself, resorted to forgery. The re-
suit of his enterprise in this city is given in
our police record.

CoUNTERFEtTING ON LARGE ScALE.-It
has been ascertaned that from the 10Th to the
18th of November last, between 100000 and
100000 in counterfeit notes of $50 and $780,
on the Bank of Philadelphia, were successfully
put into circulation in the states of Illinois,
Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alaba-
ma, Louisiana, and Missouri, being exchanged
for genuine money, mostly Missouri currency.
This is the largest and most succassful villainy
of the kind on record, and it must have been
concocted and consummated by quite num-
Der of persons. Only one of them, named
Bacorde has yet been detected, and he is on
trial in St. Louis, where efforts are making
for the detection of others of the gang. Ba.
corde was taken in Canada after a laborious
search.

Defrees and Mr.. Mitchell, the two principal
competitors for the printing, are both honor
able men, the former being a Republican, and
the latter gentleman who may become a Re-

the Presidency. 1t is creditable to the Repub
