In connection with the mill is machine
shop 40x26 feet in which they do all their
machine work and make new gangs for
marble mills which are said to be superior
TO any now In use. These arc the Clogs
ton gang, an invention of L. b. Clogston,
formerly of the Universal Iron Works of
Boston. They have been placed by Mr.
Adams in his mill, and by experienced
marble sawyers are said to be ahead of
anything now in use. The Trojan Marble
Company, who are at present erecting
fine mill in Brandon, have contracted with
them for eight gangs, and they are also
sending some to Worcester, Mass, and
there is no doubt but they will come into
general use

in years, but attends constantly to business
and is known throughout the state, as
prominent business man.

as an upright citizen, and both are deserv-

Senator Edmunds.

Senator Edmunds Of Vermont, says the
Washington correspondent of the Troy

after long absence, part of it in Florida.

enough to disable the average senator.
Mr.. Edmunds cannot well be spared from
the Senate, for he is not only able but he is
sound in his views and man of integrity.
lie has another advantage, IN that he has
no presidential aspirations, and therefore
he can afford to say what he chooses, and
to do right. One of the first things he will
attend to is the civil rights bill which is
before the judiciary committee. 1t is not
probable that he will go as far as Mr..
Sumner did in the enforcement of civil
rights in schools, churches and grave
yards and other republican senators are too
conservate to vote for the original Sumner

The Liquor Laws of TIRssaChusctts.

The fact which has been fully establish
ed by legislative investigation, that the
effect of the prohibitory liquor laws which
have been in operation so long in Massa-
chusctts, has been to largely increase
drunkenness, and the number of drinking
shops does not seem to cool in the least the
enthusiasm Of the prohibitionists in that
State, who maintain as sturoly as ever that
the only way TO check intemperance is to
keep upon the statute books laws which
experience shows cannot be enforced, and
which certainly tend TO encourage the habit
of secret uppling. Tie Boston Adcertiser
expresses the opinion, however, that the
present Legislature is composed in a great
measure of practical men. who will sustain
those measures which, on the whole,
will secure the best results attanable, and

control vice which they cannot exrricate.
Two bills providing for the granting or
licenses for the sale Of liquor under strin.
gent regulations have already been reported
in the Legislature, and it is thought that
from these the moderate men in that body
may frame law regulating the traffic in
liquors in the interests of good order and
morality which will meet with popular ac

The Funeral OF Eowcnstcin-A ni.-
graceful Scene.

The scene at The funeral Of LoWcustoin
in Albany, on sunday, was most disgrace
fnl. The services were held in the church
of Our Lady of Holy Angels, and an inn
mensc concourse of people was present.
Solemn requiem mass was performed, and
a sermon preached by Lowensten's con-
fessor, Father Neubauer. who announced
that he had every reason to believe that
Lowensten died innocent Of the crime for
which he suffered. The body was exhibit
ed to the crowd, and then began n wild
scene of irrevcrence and brutality. The
immense throng, regardless of all dccency
or order, pressed forward to gain Il view of
of the body, climbing over the backs of the
pcws, and even invading the altar, in their
morbid eagerness. The women were even
worse than the males IN this respect. So
great was the crowd that 10 less than four
overcome by the closeness OF the air and
the sad spectacle presented, tainted away.
The police, however, succeeded in restoring
orders and all who desired to view the
body were compelled TO pass up the aisles
on either side and then down through the
central aisle of the door. For full an hour
the crowd came pouring in and out, and it
is computed that full ten thousand persons
Gratifed their curiosity in this respect In
appearance, the body OF the dead man
was quite natural except a slight discol-
Grafton about the neck, where the marks
OF the fatal moose were plainly to be per-
ceived. Mrs. Lowenstein was present. and
her leave taking of the body was very af-
fecting.

by the firm of Kitteredgc, Allen & Adams,
but this partnership continued only about

In March, 1916, the company obtained
lease of land for marble quarry in West

to open the same for them, and supply
them from it. He commenced opening it in
1850. In 1851, Messrs. Allen and Adams
purchased it of Lorenzo and Charles Shell
don and Francis slason.
In 1851, the saw mill was enlarged bv
the addition Of four gangs, the pendulums
being replaced by the more modern and
improved machinery of pulleys and belts
The first marble taken from the quarry
and used in the mill was in 1851. In 1853.
Messrs. Adams and Allen associated with
them in the business Ira G. Allen, under
the firm name of Adams and Aliens. In
1854 Mr.. Alonson Allen retired, and in
that year the firm erected the brick store
on Main street, NOW occupied by the firm,
of Adams and Goodrich where for seye-
raj years they carried on IN extensive and
lucrative trade.
In 1851, they rebuilt the south end If

In 1870 they built the mill over, taking
out the old water-wheel and putting in a

jury TRIAIs.-The Free Press mentions
the trial of case in the county court to
recover S25 for the labor of the plaintiff, in
which the cost to the state was S146.
There was several witnesses for each party
in attendance for three or four days. Four
lawyers were employed, and their services
cannot be reckoned less than $3.50 per
day The Free Press adds "All in all, il
was ridiculous and sorrowful sight TO see
so much time, trouble and expense all
thrown away in quarrel over a small sum.
The verdict was for the plaintiff to recover
one cent damages, which we understand
the defendant is willing to pay But the
poor lawyers's must live somehow.

Elijah Kellogg, Author of Lion Ben of
Elm Island, " Charlie Bell, the Wait of
Elm Island, etc, etc. Illustrated.
Boston Lee and Shepard, 1874.
This book, the last of the pheasant Cove
series, is ostensibly book for the young.
We say " ostensibly," because it contains
vast fund of information, in limited
space, in reference to the fisheries on our
northeastern coast that must prove both in.
tcrcsting and instructive TO persons of all
ages information, too, that cannot be OBJ
tanned from any other one source. and only
at all by consulting IA large number of
works. All OF this information and in
structon is so interviewer with story,
Andrew Colcord being the hero, that it
fascinatcs the mind of the reader, be he
young or old, and indelibly impresses it on
the memory. 1t is not necessary that we
should give the thread of the story-wc
leave it for our young friends to glcan as
they read, we will not, in any manner de-
stroy their pleasure will, therefore,
only say that it illustrates the power of Il
good mother in training and developing the
character Of the child, as, also, the reward
which she receives, even upon earth. in the
results of her influence, example and pray
ers on the child after life. Lest we be
misunderstood, We will say that there is no
preaching, rs children understand the
word in the book far from it, II is plain
practical, common sense, every day life
and morals, We know of no more charm
ing writer than Elijah Kellogg We know
of no writer who So quickly arrests the at
tcnton of his readers, holds ii to the end,
and without seeming to attempt it, conveys
so much of valuable instruction and infor-
nation while he, at the same time enter
tains apd interests. For sale by Spauldng

hanged in Georgia to-day. Immense
crowds of men, women and children were
in from the country, and two car loads ar
rived from Alabama. Thousands gathered
around the Jail, AMI many kept desirable
situations for five hours. The best of order
prevailed. A guard armed with rifles had
positions on the gallows, which was sur.
rounded with dozen guards armed with
double-barrclled shot guns Rev. Mr.
Morey said he had baptized the prisoner
and was now present, at his request, to
offer spiritual consolation in his last
hours.
AT the conclusion of devotional exer-
cises the prisoner made rambling speech,
asserting that he had killed Steel in self
defence, and said be regretted the old man
was gone; in closing he grew very much
excited, and walls and lamentations were
heard from the colored people, the women
crying and wringing their hands. He said
he was willing to die, and in few min
utes his soul would be in heaven, where
the mistakes of this life were cleared up.
