THE complaint made by Prevention " in the
communication printed elsewhere seems to us per-
fectly justifable and the railroads should heed
the warning. Accidents have happened at this
crossing, but happily without loss of life or serious
damage to teams. The Central Vermont will soon
lay track the street at this point, and the
necessity for some system Of signals will be
doubled. These corporations are not quite as
soulless as corporations in general are reputed TO
be, and they will undoubtedly give adequate pro-
lection to the public at that dangerous crossing

THE Mortified Ne,cS gives different version
OF the story OF the steallhg Oh ferry MARSH
watch from that oil the Associated fress, winch
we gave last week IL says stranger came
along and bantered Uncle ferry MARSH Tor
trade, and was accommodated, an even swap
being made. Aiterward the stranger repented OF
his bargain and snatching his former watch from
Mr. Marsh threw back the other and MADE tracks
for the depot. The affair caused quite a commo-
ton at the corner for a time but no steps were
taken toward arresting the party The watch
which he threw BACK was rendered somewhat
the worse for wear by rolling about in the dirt "

our office last week Wednesday evening. One

while Mr. Fred w. Bancroft, accompanied by
Misses Jennie Phinney and jamie Kimball, was
driving up Whether Fred was blinded by the
gaslight, or his attention was momentarily with
drawn from his driving or what, we know not,
but the wheels locked and the two young ladies
were thrown violently out and Corning was thrown
under his horse The front part OF each buggy was
badly smashed Miss kimball escaped with
few scratches, but Miss Phinney was consider
ably bruised, so that she has since been confined
to the house. No permanent INJURY Is antici
pated, however.

for breaking into the house Of George o. Davis
of Marshfield made preparations to escape last
Monday evening. There are two doors at the en-
