"MIrTIMUs" our Augusta correspondent
writes: IA serious accident occurred at the
works ofthe A. & w. Sprague Manufacturing
Company Sunday afternoon. AS party OF
workman were engaged in taking down an iron
grating used to protect the water-wheel from
the ice and other drift, they lost control OF the
grating and it fell over, completely doubling up
one of the workman Mr.. George Reyes OF
Rumford, Me. between the ice and the grating.
1t took five men to lift the grating and rescue
him from his perilous position. He was proba-
bly, seriously injured internally. though no
bones appeared to be broken. He was taken
at once to his boarding house and medical at
tendance called. To-day he is unable to move
and cannot be moved without great suffering
Doubts are entertained of his recovery He is
a single man about 25 years of age"
THE END OF TIME.-A few days since the
Boston Times propounded the following ques-
ton:
Wanted-An answer.-Suppose it to be enc
hundred miles from Boston to Portland. A To-
connective starts at twelve o'clock from Boston,
going fifty miles the first hour twenty five
miles the second, twelve and half miles the
third, and so on each hour travelling half the
remaining distance when will it reach the de-
pot at Portland? A reward of $1,000 awaits
any person who, by mathematical calculation,
can arrive at the exact hour.
A correspondent of New York Commercial
replies:
According to my calculation, at the end OF
the thirtieth hour the locomotive will have
travelled ninety mine miles, and nine hundred
and ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and
ninety-nine aud fraction millionths-9g,9 99,
1891 ,0000 900; and that, before it overcomes the
final fraction which would change all those
mines, except the first, into cyphers, the Ange
Of the Apocalypse will have proclaimed
''There shall be Time no longer.
If, therefore, my calculation is correct, the
Boston Times will hardly announce who get
that thousand dollars!
