WALPoLE.--Complaint is still made
of drunkenness in Walpole. On re-
cent afternoon as lady was going to
the depot to meet some friends, she was
passed by two wagons loaded with
drunken loafers who deliberately turned
about and insulted her with abusive and
profane language; they openly flourish
ed bottle of spirit and publicly took
a smile by the roadside 10 her pres
ence. 1t is intimated by the Walpole
correspondent of the Keene Sentinel that
rum is sold not far from both ends of the
free bridge. The same correspondent
says further:
at will be recollected that some two
years or so ago lifeless Frenchman was
found by the side of wall in the south
part of our town, far removed from any
habitation. A coroner's inquest was
held and the verdict rendered was " died
from exposure to inclement weather." 1t
was proved that during one cold, stormy
evening he was seen in drinking saloon
in this village, and had not been seen
alive since. Notwithstanding this Chris
tian verdict, the proprietor of the saloon
was sued for damages, and during the
present court session has settled the suit
without coming to trial by paying $3.50
or more, aud costs. The defendant is
generally considered very lucky in being
able to effect a settlement on such favor

The Congregational Society occupied
their church last Sunday for the first
time since last June when the repairs
began. The improvements and changes
have been many. The organ has been
moved from the gallery into the projec-
ton in the rear of the pulpit; this space
is separated from the platform of the
pulpit by black walnut balustrade, an
elegant piece of handiwork executed by
Messrs. Burt and Cowdery who made
present of their labor upon it, the society
furnishing the material. A neat black
walnut pulpit, small marble top, black
walnut table and two heavy black wal.
nut chairs were presented to the society
by strangers within the gates y; on the
pulpit rests an elegant Bible presented
by Miss Katie Rowland. The church is
lighted by chandelier of II lights and
brackets on the walls containing eighteen
lights, presented by Mr.. Edwin Hosmer.

INGroR.
The trouble with the canal boats continues
Others have come into port, since those noticed
some weeks ago, without having paid the requi-
site tonnage duties, and they were promptly
seized by Collector Nolen. under instructions
from Wash ngton, bearing date August ID These
Instructions were in effect that the Secretary of
the Treasury dissented from the decisions OF the
Courts Of Maryland. and elsewhere, wherein it
was set forth that canal boats were not vessels
in the true seIise Of the act OF Congress relating
TO this subject, and directing that all such boats
which entered this port without the tonnage dl-
ties having fret been paid be lioeled aud the
usual penalty OF one dollar per ton on each boat
be imposed The Secretary bases bis opinion
upon an act Of Congress, passed February 18th,
1893.
The boats which are now detained are the No
sos of the Lehigh Co., and No. II, OF the Della
ware IL Raritan Canal. The frat one has already
been ibeled, and the case will come up before the
u s. District Court at somo future time. In the
other cases the, captains of the boats were stn-
ply required to take out license, which they did
under protest, and then brought suit to recover
the amount, as well az to establish precedent
that shall hold good in law. Those which are
libeled are required not only to pay the tonnage
duties, but also penalty for neglect to observe
the law

LIEUTENANT ON THE HAMPAdR.
A disgraceful affair happened on a south

He at once claimed him as hi prisoner, but was
resisted, and all the way down he was terror to
the passengers until the train reached Whining

everybody and everything he drove several
passengers from the car, and at this depot he re-
fused TO allow any one to enter the car. even
resisting officer Legg. hTr. Legg. however,
seized him, aud dashng him against the floor of
the car prevented his carving into execution
his threat to shoot him. He then hustled him
from the train and sent him to the cells, where
he remained all night. The next morning a
hearing was given hun, when he was fined SO
and costs, which he paid promptly and was re-
leased.
When he got to Baltimore he reported for du-
