CHELSEA.
The week of prayer was observed
as usual. The two societies united
in holding services one.half of the
time in each church.
A young man by the name OF
McAllister, fell through the scuttlc
of Powers Hotel stable on the Sth
inst. He struck against the side OF
the scuttle which gave him some
quite severe bruises. He was an
employe in the stable, and the fall
was purely accidental.
The pulpit of the Methodist
church was supplied last Sabbath
by Mrs. Fay of Tunbridgc.
1t is reported that q young man
by the name of FarnswOrth, aged
Is or l6 years; met with serious
accident few days ago. He wen,
into the woods alone to chop wood
but cut his foot severely. One toe
was cut entirely off, and another
partially of. When he was found
he was nearly insensible from the
great loss of blood and tue severity
of the weather.
Rev. w. j. Kidder has closed his
labors with the Method dist church as
acting pastor. Rev. ii. w. Wor
then is expected to return before
next Sabbath.
The larger hotel kept by A. II
Powers has been literally packed
the last week. The famous case in
court against the town of Strat1ord
for damages on the highway brought
nLaly, if not quite one hundred
and fifty witnesses into the town,
and most of them to the hotel. This
is a fruitful harvest season to the
proprietor.
Elliot West on Friday last, while
cutting out q wood road had the
misfortune to strike his axe into the
top of his foot, making a deep and
frighttul wound. His son was with
him, with an OK team, who was able
to help him get back to his house.
The scarcity of water is quite
alarming, some farmers are obliged
to draw all their water for large
stocks of cattle from the river.
Springs and wells are drying up in
every direction.
Hon. L. p. Poland, late Chief Jus-
tice of the Supreme Court, was EN-
ployed as one of the counsel for the
plaintiff in the case of Gilman
against the town of Strafford for
damages Oh the high way, which was
tried in the county court last week.
The weight of his influence was no
doubt felt in the formation of the
verdict of the jury. 1t appears
that highway accidents are at a high
premium in some of the towns in
the county. In STAFFORD, for in
stance. Two or three years ago tie
town paid a verdict of $4,000 dam
ages, on what was believed to be a
very unjust verdict. Last Saturday
another verdict was rendered against
the town for $4,000 damages and
costs, for elleged defects in the high
way.

SOUTH NEwBURY. Mrs. Elias Tuttlt
of this place passed suddenly away OF
Wednesday morning, Jan. Sd. She ha(
what was supposed to be a slight cold
but performed her usual work up tc
Tuesday night. Wednesday morning
Mr.. futile arose about 5 o'clock and go
ing to where his wife lay, found hel
dead. She was heard to cough slightly
about three o'clock. She was a very
large woman, and suffered much from
obesity. 1t was thought by all who
knew her that her death would be sutA
den.
The deceased was born on the 10th OF
March, 1904. She was one of twelve
children of JOSHUA and Lois King, OF
Tunbridge, Vt. Her parents were
among the earliest settlers of that town,
when it was almost an unbroken wilder
ness, and were subject to many hard
ships and Inconvenience of life. AT the
age of Is the subject Of this sketch went
from home to work, doing the hard
work which the girls of this age are lit
tie accustomed to, and at the low wages
which the people of those times could
afford to pay. At the age of IS she be-
gan to think of getting Il little furniture,
and bought u bureau, for which she paid
fifteen dollars in work at so cents week,
spinning, weaving and doing house
work. She did not work in the forenoon
and dress up in the afternoon, but would
help take care of the family till late in
the evening, sewing, knitting, etc. She
bought other furniture at corresponding
prices, and continued to work out for
sixteen years, the last four years at the
hotels in Hanover and Lebanon, N. II.
In 1885 she married L. S. Tuttle of her
native town, and they lived in Tunbridge
until 1915, when they removed to STRAIT
ford, and after staying there six years
came to South Newbury, where they
have since remained. They commenced
their married life very low as regards
the riches of this world, but by dill
gence and economy had secured a COM
potency for their old age. Mrs. futile
was kind and tender wife and mother,
and one OF those women who are the
life and support of society. Although
Of late years she has been confined to her
own house, yet there is hardly family
in this whole community where she has
not lent helping hand in times of
sickness or death and in this, rs in all
other things, she has done what she
could. In 1920 she became Il member
of the Freewill Baptist church, and af-
forwards joined the Methodist church, of
which she was member at the time of
her death. She knew that her work was
nearly done, and calmly awaited the
summons o meet her Lord, She leaves
a husband, and two sons and daughter
with famil les, to mourn her loss.

Despite the snow, and despite
the hard times, the fashionable end
of New York has outdone itself this
winter. Balls and receptions have
been more common than eyer be-
fore, and more money than eyer has
been spent upon dress and adOrn.

fact is there are a few hundred fam.
lilies who are so rich that cutting

of the giver having sported $50, 600
worth of diamonds, "wether they

Million" But the amusements that
draw their support from the mere
ly comfortable classes, are suffering.
The theatres are drawing no mon
ey, the actors are not getting their
pay, and bankruptcy is staring the
profession in the face. The news
papers are running very close to
shore, and, in short, everything that
can be cut off is cut off. Only the
very rich can aifore to be jolly, and
they are making the season unnsn-
ally gay, for very spite it would
seem.
THE WEATHER
Is abOminable. The January thaw
is on us, and the lower part of the
city is one lake of slush. Cellars
are full of water, and the streets
are impossible. The fall of snow
was immense, and, as none of it
has been removed it makes the
streets fearfully disagreeable.

THE BEAUTIFUL SNOW.
Snow is all very we'll when you
have logs to haul, or when you want
to sleigh.rde. But in the narrow
streets of New York, it is nuis.
ance, pure and simple. The street.
cars are running only half the mum.
Der of cars at the very time when
the capacity for carrying ought to
be doubled, and the streets are SO
bl0ckaded as to make trucks super.
tluous. The consequence is u terri.
bic interruption of trade. The ter.
minal facilities of New York are
wretched at best, and very heavy
proportion of the produce cOnsign-
ed to this market has to be handled
by trucks. Now that trucking is
an impossibility, it is all going to
Baltimore, The merchants are in.
dignant at the authorities tor not
removing the snow. Cargoes in
tended for New York are going to
Baltimore to save the fearful cost
of handling in this city. 1t is esti-
mated that the snow, thus far, has
cost the city u round million, and a
general suspension of business is
feared, if measures cannot be taken
to remove it.
