Miss L. E. Robbins of Ludlow, an &C
complished scholar and teacher, lately finish
ed the fall term of school in the district, and
parents say their children made remarkable
progress in their studies.
One of our neighbors had quite an ex-
perience the other evening, which well-nigh
caused his heart to futter. As he was going
along the highway half a mile or so from the
village, he spied womans veil He picked
it up, not thinking it very strange a woman
should lose her veil, but as he went along he
stumbled over a womans hat, which caused
him to suddenly halt and ponder as to the re-
suit of his going any farther. What if in tax
ing the next few steps he should stumble over
a woman's head or arm, or leg What a dire
full thing it would be But he recalled cour-
age enough to pick up the hat and proceed,
but no doubt with fear and trembling, as
swinging his lantern he peered into the sur
rounding darkness. Suffice it TO say that he
was relieved in not coming in contact with
anything else, and that the hat and veil are in
Harris's store awaiting their owner, who, by
the way, lives over in the east part of the
town. @.

A HANDSOME COMPLIMENT FOR A wIEDHAM
COUNTY WOOL GROWER

COUNTY WOOL GROWER.
-Windham county wool receives q very
handsome compliment by way Of the Inter
national Exhibition at Sydney. New South
Wales, Australia. The secretary of the Agri-
cultural Society of New South Wales in a re-
port on American woods shown there speaks
as follows of a fleece grown by Mr.. George
Campbell of Westminster
"This exhibit is the best of the kind-that
is to say, full fleece exhibit-in the whole
Of the foreign collection. With the exception
of lack of soltness, it has every characteristic
of the best Australian exhibits. The quality
is undeniable and the staple dense and even.
1t would seem to have been out of competi-
ton, and by this means lost place it seems
fully entitled to The type is essentially
Spanish, but the parcel has less yolk and
lighter skirts than any American WOOL and is
clearer at the tip than the foreign woods"
The case containing this fleece unfortunate
ly arrived too late to be opened for the in
spection of the judges, and it therefore failed
to receive the recognition which it deserved
at their hands.
MIR. Fred Phipps cut his foot very badly
last Tuesday with an axe, while he was split
ting wood under his shed.
