falling trees and peeling bark for and on
land belonging to Mr.. Clark Gould
Young Clark had cut down large
tree and as it swung to its fall, it
took little different direction from what
was expected and lodged firmly against
the limb of large birch tree, against
which from the other side large spruce
tree had also fallen. 1t was over sixty
feet from stump of the hemlock to the
limb on which it rested, and forty feet
from the ground. By striking his axe
into the fallen trunk he assembled to the
branch intending to come down by the
spruce on the other side, and as is sup
posed, was standing on it, and cut the top
nearly off below the limb, and as it weak
ened, the weight of the trunk settled
down, brought the top with its coarse
boughs back suddenly sweeping him
down to a swift and horrible death. His
father, who was near by, (and who tried
to dissuade him from attempting to dis
lodge the tree, after it came to the ground
called to him, but receiving no answer
ran to the spot and found his son gasp
ing for breath, but the end was so swift
that he probably suffered no pain. Both
arms and one limb were broken, also both
jaws in two places, and the head badly
crushed out of shape. Mr.. Clark was
twenty-five years of age, yonng man OF
much promise, of stainless reputation,

Boston Produce Market.

Thursday, June I.
BUTTER.
The market has experienced another very dull
week. and it is still difficult to give reliable quota
tons. Stocks have been steadily accommodating
and receivers have taken the best offer they could
get ratuer than let buyer go. Sales have rang
ed from Is to 81 for choice lots of New York and
Vermont but 81 C. is an extreme price, and il
would be hard to force sales at over Is C. The
consumption of butter is unusually small, and the
West is increasing its supply every year, and is
York or Vermont. This will keep prices on q low
basis and very little advance present rates can
be expected during the summer.
CHEESE.
The market has been slow, weak and unsatis
factory, and the best lots Of Vermont have sold al
II to II c., the latter being an extreme price, fair
to good at 8 to 10 c., and common at 5 to G.
EGGS.
There has been very little change in prices dur
ing the week, and Northern and Eastern are sell
ing at Ia to 10 C. per dozen.
POTATOES.

dency at the close Early Rose are in light re
quest, and have dropped to 81 per bushel; Jackson

save thou soul, and It shall save thine own.
In the evening Mrs. Molloy among
other good things gave expression to
the following. In describing the sue
cessive steps in the effects Of alcohol,
she said:
1t first excited the Imagination, then
attacked the will, then blunted the
moral sensibilities. Man was n dual
being-animal and spiritual. Let the
spiritual in man become blurred by
the effects of incompetence, and he
was but walking animal. A great
artist painted the face of a lovely
child, fair and beautiful. 1t was adj
mired by every one who saw it. Years
after he painted another picture, and
placed the two side by side. The last
of q wild, haggered face /peering
through prison CRATES. The two were
portraits of the same person-one
when the spiritual was predominant,
the other when intemperance had Civ
en- the animal performance. 1t had
been said to her that God was too
merciful to punish the drunkard, and
drive him from His presence cternally.
God did not drive the drunkard away,
he went away. If men had hell in
them in this world, and left the world
with it in them, they would have it in
the next world, for the dissolution of
the relation between the body and
spirit would not change the character
of the spirit. Tantalus was chained
to a rock, and surrounded with delica-
cies that receded from his eager grasp
like shadows so it will be with men
who let their animal passions conquer
them and destroy theircapacity to en-
joy the spiritual.
Some men had told her that liquor
did not effect them; they could drink
it and not get intoxicated. Such as.
sertions were an acknowledgment that
they were controlled by their low animal
natures. Finely and Intellectually or
ganized men could not drink liquor
without being effected by it. She then
related the story of the two darkies,
who were fishing and gave the fish
crums from their lunch basket, soaked
in whiskey. 1t made them drunk and
they came to the surface, turning up
on their backs and were easily cap
tured. There was one big old fellow,
however, who took in the bait with
IMMUNITY. The more he ate the live
lier he became. The query arose as
to the reason of this, and the darlies
decided that the big fish that took the
whiskey with IMMUNITY was "mullet
head, and hadn't got no hrains."
Drunkards could not be saved against
their will, and hence they must be
awakened to a sense of their condition
"a difficult and delicate task requir.
ing great patience and charity anC
much personal effort. To do this
work one must be able to endureabuse
and reviling. Charity was needed il
this reform work. 1t was from a bat
: tie that these reformed men had come
and many of them had wounds thai
were tender, and they should be ten
derby treated, Personal effort was
what was needed.
