Nellie Harlow, Is years old, daugh-
ter of L. G. Harlow OF West street,
had an arm broken between The ell
bow ard shoulder on Sunday last
She was getting out Of the wagon
when the horse started, throwing her
down, and causing this fracture. She
has been unusually unfortunate in this |
line, having had the same arm broken
tw ice before. One of the worst hab-
its horse gets, and one which few |.
are free from, is starting when a per-
son is getting out or in the carriage.
And some horses which have once
been taught to stand until the rcins
are drawn up, have afterwards been
spoiled through the bungling Of driv
ers.-C0Iedonidn.
In a circle of one mile around
Wheelock Hollow, embracing a pop
ulation of 800, only one per cent
year of deaths have occurred for sew
eral years past. Lorenzo Sulloway,
the hearseman, has been called on but
twice since last January. This may
be owing TO the temperate habits OF
the people. There is not an habitu
al drunkard in the village, and but
one or two in the whole town, and
even these find it so difficult to get
liquor that a drunken spree is almost
entirely ont OF the question: Union.
An attempt has been twice made to
destroy the new fence around the sol
diers monument. The men who had
charge OF the work found the rails
pretty thoroughly scattered about,
one morning, and several posts taken
out or broken off The work was
quietly pro secuted during the day,
and a Trap set for the boys that night.

Horace says that they ran like Tro-
JAMS, but he ran like two TrQjans.-
| The result was that the boys were
/ oyertaken. and their names are in tie
hands of parties who mean business
at a proper time. They had better
settle the mattGr.-Tlmes.
Wheelock is to be envied for her
excellent hotei. The Spring House
may be put down as a success. The
