DIsGRACEFUL AND PERHAPS FATAL
QUARREL,-A disgraeeful quarrel arose
about midnight of the fremen's muster
at Rutland, between the Boxer boys Of
Burlington and the Marlboro Mass, boys.
Fists, clubs and stones were used freely
and the fight was only stopped by the
moving Of the trains having the Mari
boro boys, and just as the train moved a
shower of missiles were sent into the rear
car, among which was a car shackle,
which struck one man and gave severe
cash on the head, and glaucing through
a window, struck young lady and
made very serious wound on her head.
The young lady has since been lying dan
gerously i'll at Shrewsbury.

destroyed by fire about three O'Clock Sat

was not as high as few hours before, or
the extensive lumber yards south would
have met a similar fate As it was, a
large pile of wood, almost fifty rods from
the fire, caught and blazed up violently
Cor some minutes, but an energetic pour
ing on of water from the pals, happily
quenched what threatened to be con-
fagration. The shed was of little val
ne and the loss will not exceed 500.
From GO to 100 cords of wood were de-
stroyed.

MURDERIN GRoToN.-AD ARRAY occur
red in Groton, Caledonia county on Wed
nesday of last week. which resulted in
the death Of Frank Randall at the hands
of j. @. Adams. There had been an
old feud between them. On that day
as Adams and another man were going
past Randall's house, the latter attacked
and drew him from his wagon when
Adams threw him down and started for
his wagon again, when Randall again
returned to the attack, and Adams stab
bed him, causing his death that night,
The examination, however, showed ii to
be rum murder, that Randall left bis
supper table on purpose TO attack Adams,
on hearing that the latter was passing
his house, that Randal's wife and daugh-
ter engaged in the attack, and the court
discharged Adams on the ground that
it was justifable homicide There is
something mysterious about the stabbing
however, as the knife in Adams pocket
showed no blood. while knife 10 Ran
dall's pocket was bloody, and Adams
denies that he stabbed Randall or knows
anything about it.

ATTEMPTED EsCAPE,-On Sunday ID
inst, convict in the State prison at
Windsor, named Lashua, with several
aliases, and employed in the cook room,
was missing, Upon search, it was found
he had made scaling ladder out of some
old eve spouts, and where it was though;
he had escaped. On Monday night,
however, guard on the wall noticing an
unusual sound fastened toward its origin
and found the hands of a man clinging
to the top of the wall. He was quickly
ordered to halt, give his name, knock
away his staging, and march to a point
at which help could be raised. 1t was
Lashua, and he was soon introduced to
safe quarters. He had dug hole be-
meath loose board in the cellar of the
cook-roOm and concealed in cavity just
big enough for his body. He intended
to escape Sunday night, but he heard the
guard and was afrighted. The Windsor
Journal says he has now pretty serious
impeachment attached to one of his feel
which renders it wholly impraeticabI,
for him to scale any wall.
