McIndOes Falls.

Sunday morning A. b. Perry founC
that somebody had entered his stor,
during the night and stolen goods
principally iewelry, to the amount OF
about 500 dollars. The entrance had
been made through window on the
north side of the store. Suspicion was
at once directed against stranger,
Fred Harvey, Of Leeds, Canada, who
had been hanging around for several
days. Deputy Sheriff Smith was put
on the track and was so successful that
bright and early Monday morning he
appeared with the man. Harvey
plead guilty and was bound up to
county court with $500 bonds. Not
being able to get bail he was commit
ted to Jail Mt st. JOhnsbury.
Rev. c. F. Morse has, with the close
of his second year been dismissed by

The question having arisen as to
which are evangelical and which I'M
evangelical denominations, attention is
called to the practice of the Young
Mems Christian Associations. of which
there are about one thousand in the
United States. They limit their mem
bership to "those who publicly avOw
their faith in Jesus, the Redeemer, as
divine, and who testify their faith by
becoming and remaining members of
churches held to he evangelical. And
we do hold those churches to he evan
gelical, which, maintaining the Holy
Scriptures to be the only infallible
rule of faith and practice, do believe in
the Lord Jesus Christ who was made
sin for us, as the Ouly name under
heaven, given among mou whereby we
must be saved from everlasting pun
ishment" Here belief in the divine
authority of the Scriptures, the di-
vinity of Christ, His atonement for sin,
and everlasting punishment, is held AS
necessary to constitute an evangelical
Christian church, and their member
ship and fellowship is limited to such
churches.

The sudden death of Mr.. Jacob
Varnum has spread a gloom over our
whole community. He retired as well
as usual on Friday night and lived
only about half an hour after the fam
lily first discovered, in the morning,
that he was i'll. 1t is supposed that he

Joseph Cook.

A large audience gathered i'll Music
hall last Thursday evening to hear one
of the foremost of American thinkers,
Rev. Dir. Joseph Cook. The lecturer
was introduced by Mr.. Putney, and
gave ut the outset the explanation OF
his subject which was "The Seven
Modern Wonders of the World" Mr..
Cook enumerated them as follows: /.
The speed of communication among
the nations. .. Self-reformatiOn of
the hermit nations. 3. Parallel ad-
vance of educational and representa-
tive institutions. 4. Prospective
moral confederation. ). Triumph of
Christianity in our century. &. Cur
rent fulfillment of Biblical prophecy.
=. Establishment of scientific snper-
naturaism. The most interesting of
these were the first two and the last.
Under the first two wonders Mr.. Cook
gave interesting and reliable informa-
ton about China, Japan and India.
Ills NOIus dDOuJ llClid dutl Htl lCldIlOH
to Great Britain were of special inter
est as coming from one whose extern
sivc travels on both continents and his
careful examination and treatment of
Ill public questions, has made him an
authority in these. His last topic was
rendered as the triumph of mind over
matter, and gave the lecturer an Op-
portunity to touch upon infdelity,
materialism, and the possession of a
soul in the body. His descriptions of
foreign scenery and nations were much
enjoyed Yet Mr.. Cook cannot be
called popular lecturer. His enunci-
alton is faulty and his manner quite
rambling and while he is a profound
thinker we imagine majority of
his large audience in this place would
vote for Fighter" man for the next

John Butler of Highgate was struck
at ii grade crossing in that town on
Tuesday afternoon by the express train
which leaves this place at $50 a: m,
and probably fatally injured. The
man was bundled up on account Of the
extreme cold and evidently did not
near the train and rs the crossing was
of the too-commonly blind kind, he
could not see the approaching train
until almost upon the track. The first
the engineer saw was the horses head
just before the engine struck him. The
train was stopped and backed to the
crossing, when the horse was found
dead, aud the driver supposed to be

I and in very few minutes the t1remen
had the fire extinguished. The water,
| however ran through 10 the basement.
| l.. w. Rowell, job printer, was directly
under the room where the fire caught,
but most of his stationery was removed
before the water came through, and ho
covered his presses and cases so as To
protect them largely. 1t is rather a
sorry looking printing office this morn
ing, but not very badly damaged. He
is insured. Directly under Rowell i

back room, where most of the water
came, he had good many envelopes
and other things which were injured.
But little in the front store was dam
aged, although the plastering will
doubtless come of in all three stories.
Mr.. Spencer is insured. The billiard
room in the basement was not much
injured. The bank, being on the north
side of the block, was not damaged at
all. Mr.. Carrick estimates his loss in

The exercises at the Reformed Pres
byterian church on New Years eve
were quite interesting, consisting of
recitation, music, vocal and instru
mental. The speaking was wholly of
n temperance character. Two beau
tiful trees were well loaded with pres
ents for the Sabbath school scholars OF
both congregations. A beautiful arched
motto, extending from one tree to the
other, "Happy New Year." added much
to the beauty of the scene. 1t was

smash-up on the Lake Road.

A car of the stock train coming east
Monday morning, got off the track in
the first bridge west of Wolcott, tear
ing up the ties and injuring the bridge.
A tiagman was ut once sent back to
stop the mixed train soon due from
Hyde Park, but owing to the darkness
lit was about six o'clock and the
amount of steam which envelOped the
engine, the engine driver did not see
the signal and ran into the bridge at
usual speed. He only had time to re-
verse his engine when it went down
through the bridge, followed by the
tender and one freight car. The pas
rested on the freight car and stopped
partly canted up. The engineer, Geo.
w. Hart, was thrown out upon the
snow and ice uniniured. The fireman,
Charles Gaffney, was extricated from
the wood and tender somewhat bruised,
but it is thought not much hurt. He
returned to his home in this place same
day and was able to walk from the cars
to his fathers house on River street.
The brakeman, John r. Matoon, went
to his brake and was slightly hurt.
The six or seven passengers ill the car
were not injured. There has been
some delay to traffic on account of this
accident, but before this paper is
printed all trains will be running as
usual.
