SAD CASE. 49, Tuesday evening, week,
says the Caledoamn, Mr.. George Sprague
and wife, of North Danvillc, visited at
their father-in-laws, Mr.. Ward, taking
with them their infant child, a boy few
months old. They returned home about 0
o'clock, unlocked the house, and Mrs.
Sprague placed her child in the cradle,
then lighted n lantern for her husband to
take care of his horse. She then struck a
light for her own use, Immediately went to
the cradle, and found the child lying per-
fectly motionless. with red and dark streaks
around the nose and eyes, and showing no
signs of life. Mrs. S. called her husband,
and informed him that she feared the child
was dead. The child was placed in a
warm bath, and it exhibited, as it was
thought, very faint sign of life. A doc
tor was called, but before he arrived it was
perfectly evident life had departed. The
child was no doubt accidentally smothered
to death, on the way home, by its warm or
close wrappings, or more likely, by the
buffalo robes being drawn too tightly
around it.

BENNINeToN, March %.
This afternoon Edward Bailey, the pris-
oner known as the " One Hundred Dol
lar Bill man, who operated SO extensively
in swndlng farmers in Jamaica and else
where, and Charles Stockwcll, of Pownal,
in Jail for refusing to pay his taxes, broke
from their confinement in Bennington
ounty Jail here, but were fortunate
~ rccaptured. They made their es-
cape by unlocking the door with a wooden
key. They were seen by Frank Pooler,

started in pursuit, and after lively chase
of about quarter Of mile, the prisoners

but they were foilcd, us the jailer took a
policeman into jail with him when he went
to lock up for the night.
FIRE IN TIE RUINS.
The fire department here were
called out again at halt past ten
o'clock this morning, the strong wind at
the time having started up the fire in the
ruins of the burnt pottery. Fears were
entertained that the woodwork left stand
ing might catch the blaze and the engines
were kept playing on the ruins for the
space of an hour, which drowned the
flames eifcctually. b.

a VaiIse and n SI5O watch Spirited
Away---Thc Suspected Criminal
Arrested.

On Saturday afternoon last Fred $.
Thompson, an employee of Marshall & Cady,
the well-known jewellers on Merchants
Row, in this village, started for Poultney
on the train, where his parents reside.
taking with him valise in which was his
weeks washing, and gold watch belong
ing to Mr.. l.. \. Halves of Poutney,
valued at $50, which had been left at
Marshall Il Cadys TO be engraved also
gold ring worth $40. Fred took the valse
into the car with him, He stepped out
upon the platform between this village and
West Rutland for moment, and on re-
turning, found an Irishman sitting on the
scat with the valise. Fred took seat some
seats back of him. On the arrival of the
train at West Rutland, four men got off
the train, the lrishman among the num-
Der.
After the train had started, Fred dis
covered the valisc was missing aud II
thorough search proved that it was not in
the car. The conductor, Charlie Potter,
West Rutland and gave Fred some encour-
agement as to the, possibility of ascertain
ing the Irishman's name. Fred went on to
Poultney, and Sunday morning came back
to Rutland with a team, made known his
loss to the firm, and they Immediately went
| over to the west side, engaged the services
of officers Harley G.. Sheldon and Stearns
to look up the case. They soon found out
the name of the Irshman to be Pat
McCauley, Il young man who resided with
the old folks there, and had previously
worked in Pittsford. The officers went to
the house of the McCaulcy's, but at first
found no one at home. They went again
in the evening and found the old woman
who said that Pat had been away for some
three weeks. They were not 20 be de-
feated in their pursuit by so thin an artiiicc
| and so determined to search the house
During the search the veritablc Pat was
caught III the act of escaping through a
window. He stated, on being questioned,
that he threw Il valisc out of the car Win
uoN vi lnc Tram lntI IL WAS MS wv IL
| valisc, and his reason for dumping it was
that he had some whisky in it which he
was afraid the conductor would discover.
Pat was taken into custody and brought
over to the county Jail. On Monday a
search through the house selvcd to bring
to light one of Freds shirts, marked with
his name, but nothing else was found. 1t
has leaked out that Pat borrowed lantern
on Saturday night at West Rutland to find
his valisc. His mother came over to Rut-
land Monday and tried to see Pat in JAIL
| but was refused admittance. One of the
McCauley family promised deputy sheriff
Sheldon that he would find the valise and
its contents Monday night and send it to
the officer, if it could be found.
| An examination of Pat will be had this
morning at the Jail, when it is to be hoped
the facts may be brought to light concern
ing the disposal Of the stolen property.

THE UNITED STATES POTTERY BURNED
LOSS S25, 900.

At half-past one o'clock Monday morn
ing the village was reused by an alarm Of
fire. fastening to the quarters whence
the alarm came, it was soon seen that the
extensive pottery of Messrs. L. & J.. p.
Norton was in flames. A violent gale was
raging at the time, and it seemed impossible
TO prevent the conliagration spreading TO
the adjoining houses and buildings.
The steamer General Stark" was soon
on the ground, as well as the hand engine,
No. ., and the members of the fire brigade
made most heroic eXeitions To check the
flames.
1t was soon seen To be impossible to sage
the pottery buildings, but the eXertous Of
the firemen succeeded in combining the
| flames to these. At one time it seemed as
| If the fire must sweep up the entire extent
of Pleasant street and involve the beautiful
residences of Messrs. Abbott, Maj. Valen-
| tine and others. The wind carried the
sparks to distance Of nearly half II mile.
The pottery buildings were totally de-
| stroJcu, tOSpIh'i WIN "ii NN'Sho''' '''Ni'
of finished wares prepared in anticipation
Of the spring trade. There has not been so
large a stock on hand for months.
The loss is estimated at $4,000. On
this there is an insurance of only $4,000,
in favor of one of the partners. The other
partner in the firm is uninsured. 1t is sup
posed that the fire originated in the vicinity
of one of the kilns. This was fired on
Friday last, and it was intended TO draw
the kiln on Monday.
The firemcn were much crippled in theil
earnest endeavors by deficiency OF hose
there not being near enough to reacl
from the engine to certain parts of thu
main building of the establishment. In con
sequence these had to be abandoned TO til,
flames.
When will Bennington learn that til,
"penny-wise and pound-foolish" policy
which has been pursued in everything, fo
ten years past, is perilling the best interests
of the community and running this one,
prosperous village
Another steamer should be purchased a
once, and an additional supply of 1000 fee
of hose secured for the General Stark" a
soon as possible. NJ
An extra from the Vermont Gdsette says
The Rutland daily globe. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1873-1877, 1874-03-24

The Messrs. Norton have the sympathy OF
the entire community in their pecunary
loss, and earnest desires FOR the prompt re-
building of the Pottery.
The Pottery has been prominent enter
prise of Bennington, in various localities,
since 1893, being at that early date con-
trolled by Capt. John Norton, ancestor of
the present propretors. We think that the
Pottery was built on the present site in
1888, and was destroyed by fire in 1874,
then owned by Norton Il Fenton.
10 a. M. Monday-The fire is still burn
ing in the ruins, and fears are entertained
that change of wind may spread the
flames to the piles of wood and sheds on
the west. We consider the danger passed.
Many men are thrown out of employ
ment by this disaster.

The Liquor Cases in Boston.

The case OF Harvey d. Parker of Bos-
ton, proprietor of the Parker house, ac-
cused of keeping liquor nuisance, says
the Springfield RepuJlican, came up before
the superior court at the Hub on Friday
the evidence was perfectly clear that Mr..
Parker was guilty under the prohibitory
law, and the jury disagreed, standing six
and six. The counsel for the defense con-
fined himself chiefly 10 .denunciations of
the prohibitory law and the motives that
had led to the raids on the big hotels,
while theIlegislature was in session. The
government had presented only one class
of testimony in this case, he said, and that
is the testimony of class'of linen, backed
by commission, which in turn is backed
by political party known as the temper
ance party. The charge of Judge Wilkin-
son was perfectly non-committal. The
general feeling of Boston people of all
opinions on the temperance question is,
that the trials OF these hotel keepers have
been contemplate tarces. Young's liquors
have been carried back, Parker returns to
his bar, and nobody but the lawyers is any
better off for all the bother.

Horse DROWNED. On Wednesday even
ing, says the Richford Sentinel, Mr.. b. A.
Crook, of Montgomery, in company with
his fair fianccc Miss Emma j. Green, was
returning home from this place-whcrc
they had been to get wedding dress and
other tixngs, preparatory to getting mar
ricd the next day-when near r. $. An
derson's, between here and East Berkshire
he Edrove off from sluice-way into n
brook, the waters of which were greatly
swollen by the freshet and the water set
ting back from the river. AS neither of
them could swim they were in great dan
GER and probably would have drowned had
it not been for the help of the neighbors.
The horse was checked up, and was
drowned before it could be gotten out.
Luckily the wedding fixings were not
damaged, and we presume the involuntary
bath did not dampcn the ardor of the
young couple, and prevent them from celc-
bratng their nuptials the next day.
