Peter Donnelly last Wednesday
shot squirrel in Cornwall which
though presenting most of the features
of gray, was of very dark color, the
back being nearly jet black. IL was
not the regular black squirrel, but evi.
IDENTIFY very uncommon variety of the
grey.
The youths who scoop in learning
at the college are ranging the forests
to-day, notifying squirrel, skunk and
chipmuck that the annual hunt is in
full blast. The hunt began yesterday
afternoon, and will have the usual
wind-up OF supper at the expense OF
the defeated side. Obliging owners of
guns have been popular with the stu.
dents during the past few days.
Mr.. T.. S. IIotham, who has so
long and so well served the public in
this vicinity as a platter in silver and
nickel, has sold ont his business in
Rutland to accept favorable position
as an agent for Brooklyn business
college. The business is now carried
on by the purchaser, j. M. Portal,
whom Mr.. Hotham recommends as
thorough and conscientious workman,
who will fill all orders entrusted to him
in the best manner.
We have received specimens of ap-
| pies put up last fall by Austin Peck of
East Middlebury, which are to-day al
most perfectly sound and plump, hav-

About forty men are now at work
at the old papcr-mll falls. A canal of
considerable length is being blasted
through the rock on the cast side of the
river below the falls, and the dam is
being so placed rs to turn the whole |!
current of the river through this canal. |
AT the end will be the pulp mill, |
which, it is said, will be up and ready
to run by the first of December. 4 |
paper mill is also TO be built. Cutting
the canal will give water power
hardly to be surpassed on the creek.
