j. X. Egerton. The bylaws were amended
so that assessments on the death of mem
bers will be graded as follows: For those
| from twentyone to thirty years OF age on
joining, eighty cents; from thirty-one to
| forty, one dollar: from forty-one to fifty, one
| dollar twenty-five cents; Beneficiaries will
receive as many dollars as there are paying
members at the time the assessment is pay
| able, and the admission fee was placed at
two dollars for all ages. 1t is hoped that the
effect will be to retain and increase the
membership.
LAST. week an item was. sent in to the
| effect that Mrs. Bugbee had gone to Berlin
| to take care Of her sister-in-law, Mrs. Samuel
| Chandler, who had since died. In look
| ing over the manuscript the two words
| quoted were mistaken for suicided and
| changed to " attempted suicide" 1t was
| entirely an error in reading the copy. Mrs
| Chambers death was caused by shock OF
| apoplexy or paralysis and there Is not the
slightest suspicion that she ever thought OF
| committing suicide. She was an excellent
and estimable woman and the error is much
| regretted by us, but it seems to be one OF
| those unfortunate and annoying mistakes
| that will occur to even careful persons.

| A warrant for SCOTS arrest was placed il
the hands of Deputy Sheriff Avery, ano
Scott was arrested Thursday at the Tun
| bridge fair. He appeared for trial Friday
with j. G. Wing, ESQ, for counsel. Hughes
| testimony was very cloudy on all points bu
| one, which was that Scott was not the mar
had to be acquitted. Monday morning
| Hughes was tried and convicted of intoxica
| ton and fined So and costs.
