One lIartwell, who has been in iail a,
st. Johnsbury for some time on charge OF
stealing at Island Pond, concluded last
week that he would not wait longer the
slow process of the law, and told the
sheriff that if he would take him over to
Guildhall, where the Essex court was then
in session, he would plead guilty and get
his sentence. Sheriff Suloway suggested
that if he would wait and stand trial he
might get clear; but Hartwell insisted on
pleading guilty and having the matter
over with. So Mr.. Sulloway took his
prisoner to Guildhall. When he reached
there, he ascerlained that Hartwell's case
had been called about an hour previous
and mol pros entered.

From IL report submitted to the New
York legislature by Bank Superintendent
Lamb, it appears that the savings banks
of that stale have illegally expended
100000 in gifts, testimonials, etc. The
expenditure was equivalent to reduction
of one per cent interest for one year on
$50, 100000 of deposits; and the depositors
may be pardoned for thinking that the
bank managers might well have been less
generous with the money entrusted to
them for safe keeping.

SELF. MURDER,

Joseph Mason, living in the south part
of the same village, had had considerable
trouble with his wife, the couple living
together very inharmoniously. Finally she
abandoned him short time since and
took up her abode in the house of neigh
Dor. On Friday Mason went to the place
and had an interview with his wife, en-
deavoring to persuade her to return and
live with him again. This she utterly
refused to do; and finally, after repeated
urgngs and persuasons, Mason at about
| o'clock in the afternoon, left the house.
After getting out into the road he drew a
revolver, applied it to his temple and
fired, the ball penetrating the brain. In
spite of the dreadful wound Mason was
able to continue or his course, and walked
about half a mile, to the house of another
neighbor which he entered. Here how
ever, he almost Immediately became I'M
unconscious. A physician was at once
summoned, but he was unable to find the
fatal ball, and Mason died Saturday morn
ing. Mason was also Il young man being
about p years old, and was, too, born in
Milton, of French parents.

Two tragedies az Milton.

The stirring town of Milton was the
scene, Friday and Friday night. of two
dreadful tragedies involving the lives oil

and the other through circumstances in
duced by the use of intoxicating liquor.
The first shot himself through the head
with his revolver. and the second was
killed by the cars. under the following
circumstances:
The name of the unfortunate man was
Philip Pippin. On Friday night he attended
merry-making ut the house of neigh
Dor mt the lower part of the village, and
at late hour when the party broke up,
started for home, walking on the railroad
track, rs that was the shortest way-and
this proved the last time his friends were
ever to see him alive. As the southern
bound freight train due in Milton at 2
o'clock Saturday morning entered the vii
lage. the engineer was horror struck to
see the PROSTATE form of Il man lying
upon the track Immediately in front of
the locomotive. He at once attempted to
stop the train, but 1t was too late, the
locomotive and cars passed over the help
less mans body mangling it in frightful
manner and causing instant death. Both
legs cut off close to the body, his arms
were broken and his face crushed in. An
inquiry revealed the fact that the man so
suddenly summoned into the presence of
his Maker was Philip Pippin. He had
made such free use of intoxicating liquor
that he was unable to walk any great

Special praise is due Mrs D. II. Gather,
Mrs. Jno. +. d. Magruder and other ladies
of the neighborhood for their very untiring

the Messrs. Gartrell, Groomes, Waters, Grif-
fifth and Kimmell, on the part of the gentle
men; and the Misses Groomes, Dwycr and
Kinsey, on the part Of the ladies, for one OF
the finest concerts ever given in these parts.
Nor must | leave out the Misses Townsend.
Mr. Crane favored the audience with two
humorous selections, which were well read
and heartily enjoyed.

at Mt. Zion, the confines Of the first and

A Pleasing Entertainment.-Las,


Tuesday evening the ladies of the Episcopal
church OF this place, assisted by several gen
tlemen, gave very interesting and instruct
i've entertainment at the Court House in the
shape of pantomimes, music, Rotations, etc
The stage was magniticenty decorated
showing that the ladies who supervised the
undertaking were experts in arranging any
thing like that which lead to beauty and
effect. The actors, nearly all of them anna,
teurs, acquitted themselves admirably and
ELECTED rounds of hearty and enthusiastic
applause Aside from assisting in a praise
worthy object it has developed the fact that
dramatic talent has been permitted to Ian
guish in our midst only awaiting an oppor-
tunity to assume its legitimate role 1t is
useless for us to particularize any one of the
actors but will say that all were worthy of
note, but time and space will not permit an
extended review at this time.
The supper-a necessary accompaniment
was magnificent, and somehow in look
ing at this princely banquet, it caused a man
to feel hungry whether he was or was not.
Ample justice was given it by the patrons of
the entertainment, but the dramatics, supper,
"wax-fggers" and all were togotten in dis
cussing the merits of the splendid cake and
delicious ice-cream.
Financially, it was success, some fifty
dollars being the net proceeds of the enter
prise, which is to be applied to the rectory
of the church In conclusion we hear it re-
GREETED that the entertainment was not re-
peated-and we hope it may be in the near
future.
