COLLINSVILLE.

D. B. Hale has since 1861 held the office of registrar of marriages, births and deaths in town of Canton for nine- teen years, and is now elected for the twentieth year. He has issued nearly 600 marriage licenses, and performed the marriage ceremony for 21 couples. For nearly p years he has held the office of U. s. guager, and in that time has travelled on official business nearly Ill., 900 miles, visiting 56 different distiller- ies, in Is towns and three counties, from Colebrook on the north to Chester on the south, and from Hartford on the east to Bethlehem on the west. The casks of brandy guaged, if placed end to end, would reach three miles.
 The smallest workman in the employ of the Collins company is Michael Lam bert, employed in the machine shop. He is now in his 16th year and weighs only 64 pounds.
 Philip L. Moen. the richest man in Worcester, Mass, and candidate for congress from the 10th district, was a school boy in Collinsville, over 50 years ago, when his father was in the employ of the Collins company.
 The Collins company have an order for hoes 19 inches long, shaped some like bog-hoe.
 Fifty years ago there were not over six persons of foreign birth in Collinsville: Now, more than half of the 800 work men are Irish, German, French, Eng fish and Scandinavians.
 Complying with our request, Mir Hale has given us Q little information about his public services, but he has neglected to mention that he was a trial justice in Canton for 14 years; that he has been a reporter for Hartford daily papers for p years, 20 years of that time for the Daily Post, and is also reporter for several county papers. He came to Collinsville 53 years ago, when he was but 20 years old, and entered the employ of the Col lins company, where he still remains. He is inspector in certain department, and an article must be first-class in every respect to pass his inspection, and main tain the reputation of the company for making excellent work. The company make 800 varieties of tools. Ed Nsacs

Several pieces deserve special mention, but will only make note of the solo, "Who is at my window" sung by Miss Alice Dakin and the instrumental Flower Song,'' by Mrs George Hall, Messrs ".

chase price and one years interest at per
cent. upon the balance of principal to be

In purchasing railroad land one adyant-
age is secured TO the purchaser over the
holder of Government lands. Under the
Act giving lands to railroads it was pro-
vided that mineral lands should be ex-
cepted; but the determination of the char
acter of the land was made an executive
act, which is supposed to have been per-
formed when the patent is granted. Thus
all patented railroad lands are supposed to
be llon-mineral, and all rights over them
are abandoned. If, therefore, the owner of
railroad land has on his property mineral
vein, it is his exclusively. The same is
not true of land purchased directly from
the Government, certain rights of control
being reserved in case it shall prove to be
mineral land.-[San Francisco Bulletin.
