In the little town of Castleton seven
residents have been buried at the ex-
pense of the town since March first.
A well near Brandon, 40 feet deep
freezes solid in winter, and contains
ice the year round, while 100 rods
away, in a gravel-pit, is a spot which
never freezes, and which sometimes
sends up a cloud of steam. Prof
Hitchcock thinks that there are currents
of air passing through stratum OF
gravel about IA feet down which cause
the frost.
At Ludlow on the Sd inst, Sidney
Hill, 30 years old, and a son of Everett
White, II years old, were pouring five
pounds of powder, which they had
bought at village store, into an open
pail, when a lighted firecracker was
accidentally thrown into the pail by
another boy. A terrible explosion
took place and the two youths were
shockingly burned about the head
chest and arms. The White boys hail
was entirely destroyed. Their injuries
were so severe that at last accounts il
was uncertain whether they would re-
cover.
A dastardly attempt was made tC
burn the Junction House about o'clock
Sunday morning. The fire was sci
with rags and shavings in the basement
and was well under way when discov-
cred by the night clerk and extinguish-
ed. Mr.. Barron sold the property two
weeks ago to Messers. Ballard & An
druss.

Our next President will be heavy
weight. Garfield is six feet high and
weighs $40 lbs. Hancock measures six
feet two inches, and tips the beam at
go.
Garfield is left-handed and Hancock
is a twin. English and Arthur are wild
overs. These facts should be known
and considered before the voting is be-
gun.
A shocking affair occurred in Wis
consin poor house Monday night. One
of the inmates, man of 20 years, at
tackled man of 80 and mutiliated him
in such shocking manner that he will
undoubtedly die.
Bethlehem, N. H., had only about
100 summer visitors in 80; last year it
had 2200, and this year expects to have
5000. All through the White Mountain
region the hotel keepers expect great
rush of visitors this year.
The Rural New Yorker has received
reports of the crops from 1000 different
points in the country, and from them
concludes that on the whole the pres
ent harvest will be extraordinarily
good. Here and there shortages or
even failures of one crop or another
occur, but even in these sections other
crops are excellent, while the outlook
for the country as whole is emphati-
cally good for nearly every crop except
hay.

odd minutes. In due course the time
passed, and Milton was ready to go to
college. There he found he had no
light task before him, although his dill
igence and thoroughness so well served
him that he gained a scholarship.
But brave heart never flags in the
face of difficulty, and he went forward
with honor. The day came at last when
the .Brierton prediction was fulfilled,
and the lad who had been sexton was
heard in the pulpit, an eloquent preach
er of the truth of God. Father and
mother, silver haired now, listened to
his voice with deep gladness in their
hearts. The fair young daughters who
sat by their mother, were proud of the
brother who had thus far proved him
self a true man, and Milton Ainslie
thanked God and took courage as he
looked forward to the coming years.

will be strange if he does not feel the

Was it, indeed, the sweet bells tangled
out of tune Of some lovely nature?
Edmund's eyes filled with tears. He
said to himself that if it was so, he
would take more care Of her than any
one; he would be her tender protector,
her keeper to preserve her from every
thing that could hurt her innocence.
What strange, fatal charm was it
that had fallen upon him thus una
wares? He could think Of nothing
else. Ophelia-but far more sweet in
her madness-pure as a vision, with
that dear look of happiness in her face.
Could anything be more sweet than
that she should be happy when he
spoke to her, her face full of pleasure
at the sound of his voice? Edmund's
heart melted altogether at this
thought. But those sweet fairy tricks
should not suffice her another day.
He would find her, whatever might
happen; he would secure her beyond
all possibility of escape Her reason,
what did it matter about her reason?
Love would supply the place. And
thus he spent the evening in a kind of
soft delirium, able to think of nothing,
to see and hear nothing, but his new
born yet all-absorbing love.
