Observation-Disclosures.
A FALSE FIRE ALARM.

FALSE FIRE ALARM.
The good people Of Brandon were made
the dupe of an ungodly hoax last Friday
morning, as follows: About 1 o'clock n IN,
as some one was crossing the the bridge
near the postoiice, lurid flames were seen
to light up the sky in the direction of the
depot. The impetuosity of this man, who
first observed the phenomenon was the
means of causing much dsquiet, through
out the town. Without stopping to inves-
tigate into the origin of these flames, this
rash individual Immediately set up most
vehement cutlery of fire. fire tire
a great many people, hearing the remarks,
and thinking that, of course something
unusual was Transporting, or at least several
houses and n dozen barns were on fire, soon
rushed into the street, and made similar
observations, only more so. BY this time
the church bells caught up the strain and
waited them far and abroad The school
house bell and the scale-shop bell, the dogs
and the small boys, were soon all straining
away upon the same note fire fire , fire
The " Neshobc' fire engine, manipulated by
seven men, and closely followed by fourteen
| dogs and " Modoc." soon Numbered thro'
the ''hollow,. over to the Baptist church,
| then back again, across the bridge, aud f.
nally down Depot street, now followed by
| the entire population, en- midsSe. At last
the fire was discovered. All hands drew
up around brush heap in an active state
OF combustion. Before the conilagration,
upon the bottom end of kerosene pail,
sat a pensiye-looking youth warming his
hands. Several persons laughed nj the
spectacle, several persons didn't laugh, but
almost everybody went home. The next
day public indignation naturally set against
the precipitant party who first halloed fire I!
fire ! fi-r-e!! But this poor man can
hardly be to blame. He certainly saw fire,
and his only mistake was his indiscretion
in not waiting until the next day before
mentioning it to anybody
FARMERs' AND MECHANICS CLUB.
Friday evening the Farmers and Me-
chanics' club discussed the proprlety of
holding fair next fall. All who were
present favored the proposition, provided
it was to be a first class affair. Those who
spoke upon the subject, Messrs Sprague,
June, Case, Col. Merritt, Capt. Cook,
Judge June and others, were disposed to
do all in their power that the fair Stouhi
be, not only first class, but in all respects
superior to all its predecessors. Before
the meeting adjourned it was decided to
hold fair, and that the contemplated fail
should be an fair that aods fair.

nnrn Monumental Work.

There is at present under process of COM
pletion, at the monumental works of Geo.
+. White, on West street, in this place,
one Of the rarest and most original designs
for monumental purposes that was ever
wrought in this country or, probably, IN
the world. Besides being original it is
wthal one of the most appropriate designs
by which to mark the last resting place of
those we love. The design is that of a
tree, stripped of its branches and foliage,
and around the trunk of which twnes u
handsome wreath of flowers and leaves.
The length is thirteen feet and six inches,
which gives some idea of its elaborate de-
sign, while at the base it measures four
feet and four inches IN diameter. Around
the trunk, near the top, is wrought a belt,
raised in pure white, upon which is to be
carved one name, while inst below and in
tertwined within the vine is to be the Sc
cond inscription-thc monument being de-
signed and to be used TO mark the grave of
two persons The bark of maple tree is
initiated to perfection, and one who has
never seen such design cannot conceive
how handsome the white marble appears
when in that unique form.
The marble is of the Sutherland Falls
Marble Co.. the block was taken out from
the rough and wrought into the form de-
scrbcd. The original block weighed some
sixteen tons The monument was pur-
chased only last week by a gentleman from
New Yorl; State, and will be completed in
two or three months. Its cost is 1000.
This is the third monument after this
design which has been wrought by Mr..
White. and is the largest of the kind The
others hayo been sent to Newbury and to
Salem, \. Y.
Among the many fine specimens of work
noticed at Mr.. Whites shop is figure
representing Hope" of Italian marble,
imported from Italy. The figure Is that of
a young girl. life-size, with the heavy folds
of hcrrobe negligently twining around her,
one finger pointing upward, the other
grasping an anchor, while upon her fore
head rests crown, and upon her face Il
look Of neifable sweetness and peace.
Another figure, wrought by Mr.. Whites
workmcn, of Rutland statuary marble rep
rcscnts a little child, appropriate for Il
monument to II childs grave.

Runaway Accident.

Yesterday afternoon about two o'clock,
quite Il furious runaway occurred on West
street, ana although there were several per-
sons endangered no serious injury was oc'
casioncd to any one. Mr.. Frank =. Archi-
bald, a marble dealer from Woodstock was
driving down West street, IN two-seated
buggy, in which sat Mrs Archibald and
baby and Mrs Chas. u. Marsh, and drawn
by two horses. just as they struck Aler-
chants Row, the sewing machine wagon Of
Mr.. Wait was just turning the corner. A
collision occurred, the pole of Mr.. Archi-
/ bald's wagon caught IN Il wheel of the
other buggy, with such force as to break
| the pole short off at the end and it dropped
to the ground, This frightened the horses
and they ran furously down West street,
the pole dragging ON the ground. Mr..
Archibald could not control the horses in
| spite of his best efforts and the ladies were
badly frightened. Capt, Ben Valquettc
rushed for the horses heads where he hung
| like q hero for several rods. but the pole
became mixed up with the legs of the
horses and he was thrown TO the ground
but fortunately not badly injured although
| getting some bruises. Mr.. Charles G.
Dunn also attempted to stop the horses. Al
the corner of Pine street they turned into
that street and run into the gutter on thu
east side where they were finally stopped
One OF the horses was found to be lame ant
1t was taken across the street to Guindoni
blacksmith shop where silver was taker
out of one of its forward feet which meas
red five inches. In extracting it the blood
ran profusely and the horse is liable to BIZ
permantly injured by the operation. Thu
ladies although badly frightened were no
injured. The wagon was badly wrecked.
