lei at Cedar Rapids, Mich. a Mrs.
Smith while visiting her mother in that
city missed her infant son, about eigh.

at last found the child dead IN trunk.
Like the hapless bride in the old song
the child had entered the tr,lnk only to
meet its death. The heavy lid had
fallen upon it's neck and had broken tho
spinal verteb@. The unfortunate mother
became almost insane over the event,
and her condition at last accounts was
precarious owing to the excess Of her
grief.

THE VERMONT COTTON MILLS


Among the many manufactures already
established in North Bennington, the Yer
mont cotton mills stand at the head. This
is Il stock company with capital of S150,-
000 all of which is owned by p. L. Rob-
inson, President J. $. Lyman, Secretary
and Treasurer, and S, w. Worthngton,
Superintendent The main building is 1876
feet in length, 30 feet in breadth, four
stories high and bnilt of wood. In addition
they have picker and lapper room, which
is fire proof also repair shop, boiler and
draper rooms, all of which are separate
from the main building; also thirteen ten
ement houses. The buildings are all well
provided in case of fire, each building
being furnished with fire escapes, while
under the mill is an eight inch iron pipe
through which water is forced into a
hydrant house (ire proof which is supplied
with two large hydrants, and here enough
is kept on hand to reach any part of the
mills or tenements in case of fire. The

cipally water, although they are provided
with a go horse power engine which is
used as helper, and the buildings are all
heated by steam. Within the past three
years the machinery has all been
put in new, and is of American make,
and since last February they have put in

Wood and Light Machine Co., with patent
couplings and boxes which are guaranteed
to run six months without oiling. They
have also added two fifty horsepower
boilers from Pitkin Bros, Hartford, Conn.,.

Granger Meeting in Boston.

BOSTON, sept. ].
A public meeting was held at one o'clock
under the auspices of the Boston grange
at the Boston Commercial Exchange and
drew full attendance. The meeting was
called to order by John b. Bart
lett, master Of Boston grange, who stated
briefly the objects of the meeting. The
principal question was that of cheap trans
portation of products from west to east,
and a reform in railroad management
which was not only necessary hut indis-
pcnsiblc.
He then introduced j. G. Abbott, Gen
eral Deputy of the National Grange. who
spoke of the great revolution that was 60
ing on in the country and urged the i'm
portancc of putting down this monopoly of
railroads. He gave statistics OF the earn
ings of the different railroads, necessarily
reducing the profit of the farmer to almost
nothing. He commended that the cost of
freight and travel could he reduced to
quarter of the present rates, and considered
1t downright robbery as now managed.
There should he, he claimed. II supe-
rior power To combine and consolidate n
grange as only an organization that has
with any degree OF success met this mon
0poy.
lie was folowedby Hon. Amasa Walker,
who had considered the great question of
railroad reforms, and felt it his duty to
come forward and do what he could to re-
form this monopoly and presented rates of
freight on different roads. He said that it
should be the business of Congress to inter-
fere and protect the business interests of
the country. He spoke of three ways in
which a great object could he obtained
first, by general law fixing rate of travel
and freight on all roads in the country :.
second. to create new lines between the
principal depots of transportation, and
third, by purchasing all roads and placing
them under government management to he
leased, which would open all roads to the
public at the cheapest rate.
He reviewed different plans and thought
the last would be most feasible. He con-
sidered the question of railroad reform a
national question which would become a
political one, and can only he achieved by
political action.
