Mr.. A. E. Horton is passenger on
the Orizaba for this place. He will
travel down from Los Angeles with
Mr.. Wigginton and will be able to tell
that gentleman all about the probable
tiles of Stanford bringing the South
ern Pacific here.
Houghton and Wigginton come very
near meeting in Los Angeles, but
they missed making the connection
by day or two, and as the latter does
not come here, it is likely they will
have no joint discussion.

History held regular meeting last
night, the President in the chair. Fif-
teen members were present. -Four

The sudden death of Mrs. Hattie ID.
Lamson, one of the school teachers of
the place, Thursday afternoon I'd inst,
was wholly unlocked for and surprising
TO all her friends. She was in her usual
health that morning, and had planned a
walk of two miles for which she was
about making preparations. Noticing a
peculiar feeling in one of her eyes, and
a slight dizziness about her head, she
mentioned the fact to her husband. A
few minutes later, while lying on the
bed, numbness began to come upon
her fingers and her tongue, and in ten
minutes she had entirely lost the power
of speech. Every effort was made to
restore the vitality of her paralyzed
limbs but without avail. She died about
5 o'clock. The attending physician pro-
nounced the disease apoplexy, and it is
thought that this was caused by a con-
fusion upon the back of her head in being
thrown from a carriage about six weeks
ago. She had suffered only slight in
convenience from the fall, although the
blow was a very severe one. Her health
had been so perfect that there was no
other cause which her friends could rec
ognize, for the sudden and fatal attack.

CHESTER.

Foster Church, executor of the will of
Henry Church, late of Chester, deceas-

the deceased, to Henry L. Holden of
Mendon, for $4,000.
A gentleman from an adjoining town,
who recently visited Chester, on dark

Railroad Station to So. Chester, thinks
it would be good plan to call upon the
inhabitants Of that hamlet, for money to
build sidewalk to the Depot. The
idea is preposterous. Strike Sleepy

pose Better strike him on the head
with sledge hammer! Either blow
would kill him.

A MovE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

A Move IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
= Manager Forepaugh, whose famous
exhibition is to exhibit here on Friday,
Sept. oath, has adopted very commend
able plan in the manner of exhibiting
his great show.
One ticket for so cents, and children
half price, admits to all the tents, to the
entire exhibition But the circus tent is
removed far away from the gigantic
Menagerie and museum tents.
This is done so that no one need alb
stain from visiting the vast collection of
animals and the grand museum, by rea-
son of their dislike for circus displays,
or conscientious scruples concerning the
propriety of little folks attending a
circus. In nearly every place visited
during the present season, this plan of
removing the circus has been warmly
approved by the very best people, and
particularly by all Christian parents,
and an exchange remarks: "that no
tented exhibition ever visited that city
and was attended by so many of that
class whose faces are familiar in the sane
tuary and sabbath.schOol, as was Fore
paugh's great animal show and museum, ="
and it adds, "this was due to the fact
that the circus tent was removed beyond
the hearing of those in the menagerie
and museum tents" We trust this item
will be "made note of by the non
show going people here, and that no boy
or girl viii be denied the rare pleasure
of seeing the $500 beasts and birds and
10000 museum wonders in ForePangh's
mammoth exhibition.

WINDSOR.

Last week, Col. Hiram Harlow, while
putting a new furnace into his house, dis
covered a small vault under the hearth
IN one OF the rooms on the first floor and
III the vault were some twenty thousand
dollars in bills Of the old Windsor bank,
which failed in 1888. Colonel Harlow's
house used to be occupied by Rufus En-
erson, the cashier of the bank, and he
probably deposited .hem there for some
purpose or other, and perhaps forgot
their existence. The bills were of vari-
Gus denominations, fves, tens, twenties
and hundreds, and most of them so eaten
with mould that they could not be pre-
served. Mr. Marcus d. Gilman, Of Mont
pelier, has secured some of them for
preservation and the collections of the
Historical Society. The stories that have
gone abroad about this affair, that some
body has been wrongfully convicted of
crime, &c, is all fiction.
