A Strange Fatality among Fish.

A few days ago James s. Quimby of
Sharon discovered strange fatality among
the fish in his pond, and at the present
time, judging from appearances, they must
nearly all have died, as they are to be seen
by scores upon the surface and also upon
the bottom, all dead and turned white.
They are of oil sizes, ranging as high as II
pounds. 1t ia estimated that some 800
pounds weight of fish have died. The
cause of this strange fatality is, up to
the present time, unknown. AS the pond
ia protected by law, 1t might at first
thought be surmised that some envious
person had taken this way in revenge for
not being allowed to fish there, but the fact
that the owner of the pond never refused
a request to fish there at any reasonable
time 10 the year, seems to do away with
that theory. And there seeming TO good
supply of water would 60 to show that
scarcity Of that element was not the cause.

Historical.

From sermon recently published by
Rev. G. S. Richardson or the history of
the Congregational church in Malone, N.
Y, we find the following Vermont items {:
The church was organized in 1907, by
Rev. Ebcne ger Hubbard, of Brandon.
Early in its history, Rev. Holland Weeks
of Salisbury, Vt, and Rey. Simeon Parma
lee, d. D., supplied the pulpit.
Rev. Ashbel Parmalee was ordained
and installed pastor February 8, 1910. A
chronicle of that date says: "The roads
were bad. But three of the council were
present-Rev. Lemuel Haynes of West
Rutland, VT, Rev. Simeon Parmalee of
Westford, VT, and Rev. Chauncey Cook,
an Evangelist. Rev. Lemuel Haynes
preached the sermon from Luke 5 :5-And
Simon, answering unto Him: Master, we
have toiled all the night and taken nothing
nevertheless, at Thy word l will let down
the net.
AT the dedication of the church, Feb. 7,
1928, Rev. Ova p. Hoyt, a well-known
Vermont clergyman, preached the sermon.

Times were lively in the police court
yesterday. Several parties contributed
the usual five dollars and costs to the
city treasury for making use of profane
and offensive language, disturbances
and breaches of the peace, etc. Quite
a number of the fair but frail females
also contributed their respective mites.
Rather an amusing though sad cas- of
domestic infelicity came up beforeJustice
Fisher, in which defendant wa charged
by his amiable spouse with using pro-
fame and offensive language towards
her. The fury, composed of Messrs.
David Miller, J.. Geer, F. Shold, S. H.
Wood and Jacob Deise, concluded that
The defendant had been more sinned
against than SHINING, and returned a
verdict of not guilty. The prisoner
was discharged and a judgment rem
dered against the complaining witness
for the costs.
