A reporter Tor Western paper, speaking
of certain fair creature, remarked that the
''profusion and color of her hair would
lead one to look upon it as though it was
spun by the nimblc fingers of the easy

Jnne days, whose many sunny rays of
light had been caught in the meshes. and

better than saying the girls hair was red.
Prof Niles of the Boston institute of tech
nology spent some time last week in the
Monson quarries taking measurements and
sketches of the spontaneous movement of
granite as it is worked. This movement
is nearly north and south and is evidently
caused by immense pressure existing in
that direction. Prof Niles is collecting
facts in relation to this matter, which are
of interest to biologists, and will give the
benefit of his observation to the public. He
proposes to make an extended examina-
ton of the quarry, and the rock formation
as exhibited in the surrounding hills early
in July.

THE REV. Mr.. SULLIVAN, of Trinity
Episcopal church, Chicago, did perfectly
right in turning that reporter of the Times
out of his church. Here is a specimen of
the provocation given by the reporter in
his article entitled "Walks Among the
Churches: :"
Rev. Edward Sullivan has more muscle
than brains and more stomach than either,
but before his head commenced to run into
his belly he was possessed of an ordinary
stock OF common sense, and, in the hope
that some of that good quality remains
ready for use, the Sunday Times will take
the pains to talk to him very plainly for a
moment.
The talk amounts to the charge that the
church tolerated wickedness within its cir
Gle and had become worshipper of Man,
mon, and then the Times says, with start
ling modesty
"All this, and not voice of alarm
sounded. Destruction imminent, impend-
ing and almost accomplished, and not an
arm raised to avert it. 1t was at this juno
ture that the Sunday Times came to the
front, unlimbered its guns, heated its shot
and commenced the most remarkable bonn
bardment of hell that has been known for
eighteen centuries"
n Then the Times proceeds to ''show up"
various members Of the congregation of
Trinity after this manner
c"One of the vestrymen is the ''walkcr at
Field Il Letters retail department on State
street. His wife lived in New York, and
his daughter attracted great attention in
society some time ago. He is a big, fleshy,
pompous and conceited man, very fond of
notoriety, and is pretty nearly happy now
since his tenth effort resulted in his cleo
ton as one of the vestry. As an usher he
has extraordinary talent"
There is about column of such drivel
as this. The man who wrote it and the
paper that published it, deserve to be kicked
out of decent company.

At Springfield, Mass, early in the year
1871, an old mana merchant of that place,
was waylaid by couple of highway rob-
beers. Offering resistance eyxalmost
murdered their victim before stripping him
of such valuables and money as he had on
his person. For two weeks the merchant
lay at the point of DEATH but partially re-
covered. George Clarke, one of the des-
peradoes was apprehended, and afterwards
sentenced to States prison for life, where
he now is The other robber and would
be murderer escaped and remained at large
until Friday, when he was arrested at
Batchellervillc, in Saratoga county, and
taken to Springfield, where he was met by
a large crowd of people. The prisoner,
Patrick Hannah is 90 years of age.
The city marshal of Springfield left home
to make the arrest Tuesday noon lie
reached Glen's Falls by rail that evening,
and went by stage to Caldwell where he
stopped for the night. Early the next
morning he sought out John Loveland, the
sheriff of Warren county. A team was
hired at Caldwell and the marshall and the
sheriff drove to Wcavertown. Here the
marshal tarried, and the two local officers
plunged fifteen miles into the woods, reach
ing the lumber camp where Hanna had
been at work, to find that he had left there
for camp "a miles distant The officers
pushed on to the place designated, and
ascertained that their man had been sent
with gang to work on a farm at Edin-
burgh owned by the proprietor of the lum-
Der camp. There they found Hanna, who
denied that he had ever been in Springfield,
and stoutly asserted his innocence. But
Sheriff j. d. Parks, who knew Hanna well,
happened to go into the depot at Saratoga,
while the marshal was waiting for the train
from Albany, and exclaimed, IIallOa,
Hanna The latter forgot himself for the
moment and recognized Mr. Parks, and
then, seeing his fatal mistake, burst into
tears, exclaming, I" Its all up with me, and
| might as well own up.
Hanna and Clark in the summer of 1871,
committed about thirty burglaries and a
number of bold and daring robberies.

the parties. Wishing to put an end to one
of these scenes NJ. Descazeau was about to
withdraw from his partners presence, when
M. Duploux, in frenzy of passion, rushed
upon him with knife, and stabbed him in
the side. The victim fell, and the assassin
stabbed himself three or four times in the
abdomen. He then rushed up stairs, opened
the window and after driving the knife up
to the hilt through his left check, threw
himself into the court. A woman en-
ployed in the house had heard the noise and
rushed out to ascertain its cause just as
Duploux was falling. His body struck her
and she was felled to the ground. Her left
arm was broken and she was otherwise
greatly injured. Madame Duploux, a
young and pretty woman also rushed out
at this moment, and was so affected by the
horrible sight that she is said TO have lost
her reason.

The strange recklessness of miners in
risking life by poking about coal mines
with an open lamp has another terrible cx-
qualification in our news columns. If the
man who furnished the last example were
alive it would be proper to express our
opinion of his considerateness. Much use
to make safety lamps to be carried about
open, The tragedy also shows to what a
dreadful extent miners are subj ected to
hazard in addition to their hard work. and
leads us to sympathsc with any effort they
may make to obtain good wages.

congregational Conference in Addi-
son County.

congregational Conference in Addi-
son County
The annual meeting of the conference of
the Congregational churches in Addison
county was held in Vergcnncs on Tuesday
and Wednesday of this week. The morn
ing of the first day was spent in organizing
and in devotional exercises. In the after
noon sermon was preached by Rev. Mr..
Bacon of Shorcham, upon prayer for the
quickening of christian graces and the max
ing of their influence felt. 1t was q sensi-
Bile, practical discourse, delivered in an earn
est spirit, and especially noticeable for the
closeness with which the preacher kept to
his subject. After the sermon Rev. Mr..
Leavitt of Middlebury, read report upon
the state of religion within the bounds of
the conference, from which it appeared
that three of the churches, those in Middle
bury New Haven and Orwell, had enjoyed
a season of special religious interest during
the past year. The remaining session of
the conference was devoted to the hearing
of reports upon subjects of christian inter
est, from committees appointed for that
purpose at the last annual meeting, and in
the discussion of the duty of systematic
benevolence, and the necdful qualifications
for the Office of teacher in Sabbath schools.
All the churches connected with the con-
ference have at the present time pastors or
stated preachers, with the exception of
those in Bristol and Addison. The latter
church has not had a minister for some
years, and has become so reduced, that it
is doubtful whether it will ever be resusci-
tated. The benevolent contributions of
the churches were reported to amount for
the year to a little more than 50. 100. This
sum, however, does not represent the
amount actually given, as several of the
churches, especially those which had been
without pastors during the whole or por
ton of the year, had failed to keep regu-
lar account of all the collections which had
been made. The next meeting in June.
1874, is appointed to be held in Shoreham,
and Rev. Milo Pope Aiken is to be the
preacher.

Two years ago, a traveller, whose name
is unknown, arrived in Council Bluffs, anil
got on spree. He driftcd one night into
house kept by one Harry Williams. He
was very drunk and gave one of the in
mates of the house his pockct-book to help
herself to certain sum thcrefrom, and
take care of the balance for him. She OH
served that the most of the bills were
of large denomination, and that there
were great many of them. She did
not count the money. While the traveller
was asleep, Jennie Stanley, that was the
girls name took the pocket-book and hand
cd it to Williams. Soon after she went 70
sleep, but was awakened by noise in the
back yard of the house. She found the
traveller had gone. and traced blood-stails
on the stairs. In the yard she saw the
traveller lying dead, and Williams AID
another man standing over the body. She
slipped away to her room, and does not
know what became of the corpse The next
day Williams threatened her that if she
ever breathed word of what she knew he
would fix her as he had the traveller. The
girl kept quiet on account of her own par-
ticipation in the affair, but her conscience
troubled her. she began TO see the ghost
of the traveller every night, and had no
peace. She left Council Bluffs and won't
to Omaha to get away from the spectre.
Her visions continued. but she tried to cy-
plain her dreadful condition to her friends
Williams heard of this and, fearing expos
ure, he went to Omaha to visit the girl.
They had an interview and Williams sup
posed they were alone when talking the
matter over There was convenient lis
tener, however, and he was an officer of
the law. Williams was arrested, also John
Godfrey, who was night watclman at
Council Bluffs at the time of the murder
also Jennie Stanley and Fannie Croker,
the two latter as witnesses. Now Council
Bluffs asks if anybody knows anything of
a traveller, probably a cattle dealer from
the far west, who disappeared from this
earthly scene about two years ago, and lief,

Birds NESTS. I'VE hope every farmers
boy will take care not to modest the birds
nests this spring. Many years ago, "in
the days when we were young" it was
very common for boys to wage a relentless
war against the nests and eggs of certain
birds, like the catbird, the blackbird, the
crow, and many others The injury inflict-
ed upon the community by their destruc-
ton was beyond calculation, but the habits
and the benefits of birds were not then
understood as now. We beg of you, boys,
to let the birds nests alone, and to protect
rather than disturb them. The birds do
the farmers untold good.--Ne'o England
