James White, resident on Railroad Hill
street, left home about 7:30 on Monday
evening to engage man to butcher two pigs
About midnight people living near the Bank
street bridge heard cries for help emanatinp
from the river between the street and the
New England railroad bridge. A number
rushed out, but the cries had ceased and it
being dark no object could be discerned in
the water. Lanterns were procured and
White was found clinging to a bush near the
bank of the river not far from the rail
road bridge. He was taken from the
river and carried into McAuliffe's sa-
loon. Life was not extinct, and two doc
tors worked over him for about two
hours endeavoring to resuscitate him, but
their efforts were unavailing and death en-
sued. It is thought that White walked or
fell off the railroad bridge, as it was very
dark at the time. A woman who was out at
that hour heard splash and soon after cries
of help were heard. The deceased was sixty
six years of age and had always been an hon
est and hard working man. AS he was alive
when found no inquest was deemed necessa-

one of the occasions when the
gauge was incapable of registering

of revolutions per minute, and that the little
twenty five foot boat which it was driving,

that had the boat been fitted with an ordin-
airy boiler, under similar circumstances Mr..
Mather would have travelled more rapidly
and in a different direction, nor would any
report on the experiment have been forth

This coil has been red hot eight or nine
times. On each of these occasions, since
there was no water in the boiler, there was
of course no steam and the pump had to be
started by hand. The first charge of water

start up the pump. There was great evo-'
luton of steam for few minutes, and then
everything went on as usual A similar ex-

lowing phenomena. When the steam es-
capped from the safety valve it was invisible

THE VINTAGE

Soft signs and dreamy purple haze,
And 10! the mellow vintage days!
Low droop the cluater.laden vines,
Beneath their burdens crimson CLEAN,
Like shadowy glimpse of Bacshus'
dream.
In glory stretch the serried lines
From mount to sea; DER hill and plain
They spread afar like queenly train;
And now anear and far around
The sun-browned laborers' joyous strain
From wales to eohoing hills resound.
Beneath the autumn's mellow glow
Where Whispering groves and Ieafy
bowers
Soft lull the dreamy, listless hours.
A thousand purple rivers flow;
A thousand fields in vale and plain
Are red with nush of crimson stain,
Where marshaled squadrons all day
long,
From rosy morn to twilight gray.
Like battle.conquerers, bear away
Their precious spoil with jest and song.
