In the Court Of Insolvency, Sat
urday, Judge Page presiding, the cred
itors of Quincy A. Green of johnson

L. p. Mudgett case the second meet

Joseph Powers, a lad 6f thirteen,
while engaged at work in the de
barn of c. 5. Page on Monday, fell
from a vat to the hoor beneath, strik-
ing his elbow in such \ manner rs to
break his arm. DIR. Hendrick was
called, and finding the boy faint,
sphntered the arm until the next day,
when the bone was set.
Attention is called TO the adver-
tisement of the State Normal School.
This school has done and is doing a
good work not only in fitting young
men and women to become efficient
teachers, but also to fill other useful
and lucrative positions in Ii &c. The
Principal, William G. Crippen, ranks
high as an instructor. He will be
aided by able assistants.
The commissioners in the Belvi-
dere highway matter-Hons. w. II.
Bingham, Z. S. Page and VIM. II.
Griswold-visited the vicinity of the
proposed roadway on Monday. Tues
day they met at the Court House in
this village, to hear arguments of the
interested parties. The commission
will report to the court, and if no eX-
ceptions are taken by either party, the
decision of the commission will be at
firmed.
Lovers of flowers should reihem-
Der that one blossom allowed to mature
or 90 to seed Injuries the plant more
than a dozen new buds. Cut off all
your flowers before they begin to fade.
Adorn your rooms with them put
them on your table; send bouquets to
your friends who have no flowers, or
exchange fawors with those who have.
All roses, after they have ceased to
bloom, should be cut back, that the
strength of the root may go to forming
new roots for next year.
We would call attention to the
tuition rates of the Academy found
in another column. The public de-
mand is acceded to in general re-
duction, which we trust will be appre-
ciated by liberal patronage. 1t
should be remembered that to patron
ize a good school is not simply to do
public benefit by such patronage,
but to confer upon your children q
preparation for life, more valuable
than wealth or friends Of high rank
because with the one comes independ-
ance of character, true manhood and
womanhood, while dependence upon
the other in life's work, can but result
in less of personal worth and often
times lead to failure, whatever be the
chosen calling. Educate your children.
The storm of Monday evening
was something unusual for this vicin-
ity. The lightning was frequent and
vivid, giving the darkness an almost
lurid appearance. Lightning struck
the Brick Hotel in this village, shat
tering chimney and tearing out a
portion of the window sash and clap
boards. From the chimney it passed
to one of the front rooms on the Sec
ond story, scattering stovepipe about
the room. Mr.. w. ii. Porter, who
occupies the apartments, was awake
in an adjoining room, but did not fee
any unusual alarm. People in the
vicinity experienced the shock, anc
some declare they could smell brim'
stone. The damage, which was but
trifing, is being repaired. A barn oil
Church street, belonging to j. Gauth
Ter, was also struck but sustained lit
tie or no damage. There is rumor o
the burning of the sheds Of one Bakeri i.
the north part of the town, but nj
: particulars are learned.
