Death OF Conductor Hall.

The death OF a man 80 well known to the
travelling public as Conductor Hall deserves more
than brief mention The following from the
st. Albans Messenger IL so full and accurate
that we copy It entire: Conductor o. r. Hall,
Familiarity known all along the line ms Uncle
Hall, has made his last trip. Leaving here rs
usual Thursday afternoon with the accommoda-
tion for Mortified, his train was set off at Col
chester to allow the Boston express to pass. Mr..
Hall was sitting on a bench In the baggage de-
partment OF his car, listening to the jests Of
companion, when all Mt once he drew full
breath and fell forward, without word. The
gentleman sitting near him tried to support him
as he sank to the floor, thinking he was merely In
fainting fit, and called for Dan McCarty, the
brakeman; but before the latter could reach him
the old gentleman was dead. He was apparently
as well when he left St. Adams as he had been
for some time past, and the trouble is supposed
to have been heart disease. The body was placed
on a bed of cushions in the baggage car and
taken to Mortified, where he has lately made
his home. Mr.. Hall was born in Wapole, N, H.,
was about seventy.six years old and a veteran in
railroad service. He first entered the employ OF
the company about thirty years ago as freight
brakeman; he was soon promoted to the conduc-
torship of through freight from Mortified to
Boston, afterwards ran between Rouses Point and
Mortified, and about eight years ago was made
conductor of the accommodation between st. Al
bans and Mortified, which has ever since been,
and will long continue to be, known by railroad
men and the public as Halls train the only
train on the road we believe, which has been
known by its conductors name He died in the
harness. and the car in which his body was
taken to Mortified was his favorite car which
had been built for that train and was his special
domain up to the moment OF his death. Mr..
Hall had been widower some six or seven years,
and leaves an adopted son who has lived west for
some time He had a small farm in Walpoe, on
which he had lately built new house, and was
intending soon to quit rairoadng and t'ke to his
farm, as his gradually failing health ncapacitsted
him for the responsibilities devolving upon a con-
ductor He was popular among railroad men and
the travelling public, had reputation for integ-
rity, and will be greatly missed along the line Of
the road The remains were left at Mortified in
charge Of Engineer Stebbins, relatives at dis
lance having been promptly notified Of the sad
event by the railroad management" The body
was taken to Walpoe for interment

A Scotch Will.

A recently deceased Dumfriesshire
laird will be put down as one of the most
eccentric of Scotchmen. A few months
before his death he threw parcel to his
forester which contained stock to the
amount of s17,000, on which that for
tunate servant is now living in luxury.
In the same easy way he gave his
coachman check for G3, 900, his shep-
herd scrip for el3. 900, and check for
G3, 900 to the aforesaid shepherds
brother. Shortly atterward he died,
and, his will being opened, it was found
that the good luck Of the shepherd was
far from exhausted, as, except legacies
of 1000 each to the coaohman and the
brother, he was left the whole prop
erty, about ESQ., so he finds himself
possessor of the estates on which he
commenced his career as "the wee
herd laddie;" and, in right thereof, he
has been appointed Commissioner of
Supply for the county. He is described
as "an estimable lad," but the will is
going to be contested.

Dropped all Pride OF Race.

dar land not far from Austin, Texas,
and few days ago he was told that
some negroes were cutting down the
timber, go he rode out to see about it.
To his establishment he found wealthy
white neighbor, with team and wagon,
hauling off the timber.
"Why, / am astonished, Colonel, F"
said the owner of the land, 81 heard
that lot of negroes were stealing my
timber, and here I find you, a white
man, cutting my timber. You ought
to be ashamed of yourself"

THERE was Lord Russell who by
living too luxuriously had ruined his
constitution. He did not love sport,
but he used to go out with the dogs
every day, only to hunt for an appetite.
If he felt anything of that, says Pope,
he would cry out, "Ohl have found
it," turn short round and ride home,
even though they were in the midst of
the finest chase. 1t was this lord who,
when he met beggar and was entreated
by him to give him something, because
he was almost famished, called him a
happy dog and envied him too much to
relieve him.
