Terrible aaInlas Accldsat.

A most distressing accident occurred
to Oscar Johnson, a coal miner, near
Carbon last Saturday afternoon. Mr..
johnson was in a ''room'' some dis
lance from the surface, at work with a
pick, when about a ton of coal becom-
ing detached from the ceiling or roof of
the ''room,' came down upon him,
forcing him down on the sharp point of
the pick, inflicting q severe cut in the
lower portion of his body, and other
wise bruising him in the most horrible
manner. He was extricated as soon as
possible, and surgical attendance Sc
cured. Hopes are entertained of his
recovery. Mr.. johnson has a wife and
family living at Carbon.

A Clerical Swindler,

Rawlins has been for the past few
months supporting a fellow named F.
s. Patterson, who claimed to be a
Methodist minister. He got up a revi-
val, directed his sermons (since discov-
cred to have been Moody's, revamped)
against intemperance and crime. While
exhorting against beer drinking he
kept q case of bottled beer in his room
and drank it regularly. He wound up
by borrowing all the money he could
and departing secretly. Patterson is
now studying law in Virginia. He will
make a first-elass lawyer.

Is Your Life Worth 10 cen.sa1

Sickness prevails everywhere, and
every body complains of some disease
during their life. When sick, the OBJ
ject is to get well; now to say plainly
that no person in this world that is suf-
fertng with dyspepsia, liver complaint
and its effects, such as indigestion, cos
%tiveness, sick headache, sour stomach,
heartburn, palpitation of the heart, de-
pressed spirits, billiousness, ETC., can
take Green's August Flower with
out getting relief and cure.
Ifyou doubt this, go to your druggists,
Addoms & Glover, and get a sample
bottle for 10 cents and try it, or a regu-
lar size for 70 cents. m1-tf

A couple of young hoodlums, one of
whom is known as "Skinny, the boot
black'' and the other as "Denver Bill"
disagreed yesterday and agreed to fight
it out. Accordingly they called a large
crowd of loafers and hoodlums together
and proceeded to the classic shores of
Crow creek, where a ring was formed.
The belligerents decided to strip off
their clothes. Pale Luna illumined
the scene with the dim uncertain light
of her first quarter. Bill and Skinny
had removed everything except their
shirts. Bill, who is only 10, somehow
couldn't get this garment off so quickly
as Skinny, oyer whose head seventeen
summers have passed, and it therefore
CHANGED that when the latter stood out
stark naked the former was but half
way out of his shirt.
"Where IL you have it!'' asked
Skinny.
"Anywhere,' - replied Bill, not think
ing Skinny would strike until both were
ready.
But the noble Skinny had no notion
of waiting for time, and so he let Bill
shave it" right there and then, and to
such purpose that William s%traightway
stopped cursing his shirt for the pure
minded purpose of bowling at his foe,
and crying aloud to the gods that he
would have a sweet revenge. In Il
trice the provoking shirt vas off, and
then, like the goaded tiger or the
bearded lion, Bill sprang upon his
enemy. With a we'll directed clip under
the left ear lie sent Skinny to grass,
and then he proceeded to sit down upon
him, to step all over him and to pound
him all over.
AL this time the crowd of observers
fairly danced with joy. They hadn't
seen such a pretty fight since Calamity
Jane whipped Private O'Flaherty, and
it is fair to suppose that the fun they
went to see they saw in the fullest
measure.
After Billy had pummeled Skinny
about five minutes the latter worthy
cried huff" and yelled for police.
Then Bill let him up; the battle was
over, and the vanquished, Sinking
away in disgrace, left the victor to be
lionized by the crowd and remain Il
valiant hero for some days to come.

Central Vermont Railroad.

The petition of the Central Vermont
railroad company and others, for leave to
sell the Vermont Central and Vermont &
Canada railroads and property as receivers,
and buy the same as a corporation, filed
last December, came up for hearing be-
fore Chancellor Royce at the court house
In st. Adams, Thursday. Answers were
filed by several security holders. The di-
rectors of the Vermont & Canada appeared
in opposition by G. W. Willard OF Montre-
al and A. F. Walker of Rutland, as coun-
sci, notwithstanding the recent vote of the
stockholders at Bellows Falls to sell. The
reading of the papers aud arguments COL
tinued all day, and will probably last
through tomorrow, and perhaps longer.
The st. Adams Messenger of Friday even
ing says: In the railroad hearing Colonel
Walker concluded his argument for the
Vermont and Canada Friday morning. 1t
was the longest that has been made and
