The next day, Saturday each and every mem Der of the society Qadies included if they choose to 6e,) is requested and expected to be present in person or furnish man, with shovel, to assist in grading the walks and spreading the gravel, as it will be drawn by the several teams, five of which are en- gagged, with three shovelers, from the ore beds. It is hoped every man will be there. The invitation is not confined to members of the association, but all others interested in village improvement, will find well come awaiting them on that occasion. The Association has transplanted just one hun dred trees in our village within few weeks past MT. Robert Ball has transplanted on his own account nineteen, ana MT. John Walton fifty. These, with the few which have been set out by individuals in various parts of the village, make good showing for our centennial tree planting year, inclu- ding of course the large and beautiful Cen tennial tree on the village green.-But don't forget to be on hand Saturday!
 Falls Village.-A sad affair was made public in our village two or three weeks since, and. one which I sometimes think perhaps had better be kept from the public as much as possible, but duty aimonishes me to send it to the paper,as it is news, and the news belongs to the papers and it is le- ultimately their property. A young man of twenty summers, and woman of al- most twice that number. (3S), eloped from our midst. and the last heard of them, they were on the Boston 6 Albany railroad headed in the direction of Oregon. Horace Greeley's advice, Co West, young man, go West;' is most excellent in it's original design, and as the lamented journalist and philosopher purposed it should be under. stood, but he would scarcely recommend the young man to take woman of twice his years, and with two children aged res pectively six and four, and hasten away from the parental roof with so little cere mony; and in fact with no ceremony al | all, such as is regarded as quite proper or dinarily. It IS certainly very unfortunate affair, and the friends of the parties have the sympathy of the people,. Tramp' everywhere abound, and so generous anC general are they in thelr calls, none art sllghted. A party of these nuisances called at the house of MT. Wheeler, some distance sbo ve this village ,and finding that gentleman and his wife absent, endeavored to frghtel the daughter and hired man by threats, tt feed and otherwise entertain them, but show of fire arms by the courageous lat induced them to trudge on for other ant less dangerous fields of operation. ...... Tn Good Templars in this village thrive, thei numbers increasing almost constantly This is one of the saving institutions of th
 town, and one of not the least importance The people hope it will be maintained

 Bills "Patent Outside"-Our outsid pages for this week are like the little boy lesson on comparative merits of beech an
 birch sprouts for family use, ''illustrate
 with cuts. "-Sa1Ss6ury Neaos.
 True, but just little old. We have j; our office at present half dozen paper containing the same illustrations with tn reading matter word for word as it appear in your NEWS. This is one of the beautie of the patent outside arrangements, yer
 much on the same principle of the ma
 who was too poor to buy loaf of brea and wanted his neighbors to chip in an
 purchase one and then all go shares
 WS,asted Nsaos.
 But what ails Bills to scowl down upo
 us in this manner? Is it because we allut
 ed pleasantly to his newspaper" folder
 our last weeks paper? He told us som
 weeks ago he was making folder, and W
 last week rejoiced at it's completion, an
 hastened to announce it, and did so with
 thought of offending him as remote frol us. as the east is from the west, when | . rises and smites us in this manner Is nt this ''casting pearls before swine ?" there is no merit in sod and grass, let's tr , what virtue there is in stones, as our illu trious friend Webster said when he mac the spelling book. As for our publishin } paper on the cooperative plan, we hay , never endeavored to make of it secre ] but Bills pretends to set the type for h paper ln his office in Winsted, wbcn l s does not, as his paper from which we eli 3 the above allusion to our 'patent outside 5 will testify. Now that we are about it V
 propose to talk up this "patent outside business, even if it takes full column , do it. Almost the entire outside of Bill Q last weeks paper was printed with blocl O of type which were composed, edited, 8 up and cast into solid blocks before he ev il saw it, or knew the subject matter it co !, tains was in existence. This was done f Damon & Peets, 100 Nassau street, Nc
 York, and as Bills, like the father of | J. country, can't tell lie O (those who kno V him best may doubt this, but we say it ne l. ertheless, he can't deny the full truth ,s our assertion. The type and head lines a if Damon & Peet's, and never saw the insi " of the office of the Winsted News. WI ', is this but ''patent outsider" The sar
 stories and matter, for instance those in
 paper of last week entitled Darkness a n' Light" "Wine Drinking in France ar Privileges of Women in Leap Years" a le almost all the rest of the outside matter ID sold to many other newspapers in precls' 's the same manner It was sold to Bills c' B. ln blocks, and published by them. What X this but publishing matter that is in otl y newspapers at the same time. THe w. Ut sted Neaos is c patent outside, using mat d edited, set in type and cast in blocks J. New York city, and Bills can't deny IL without lying, and as we said before, ny friends and neighbors know he can't BIN for he was never known to put over D u- words of lie to one of truth in his ordin eu conversation.
 GU We want to say just word more ab eo Bills newspaper folder, as we find we W en entirely in error ln what we said abou
 last week. It is not at all newspa
