Now, that Governor Bloxham has
returned from his tour to Tampa, we
trust that he will consider our suggestion
and call an extra session of the legisla-
ture to consider the question recently
decided by the supreme court of this
state concerning the acquiring of rights
of way and material by railroad corpor-
atiOns.

BIaine's Candidacy No Joke

New York sun.
The story Of Mr. Blaine's disinclination
for further political effort is a fiction
which gives opportunity for many very
pretty jokes. The canvass now in pro
gress in his behalf is no joke. Any esti-
mate of Republican probabilities which
shuts Mr. Blaine up between the covers
of his history and puts him away on the
library shelf in the year of grace eigh-
teen-eighty-four is unworthy of a mo-
ment's serious attention.

GREAT HARRINGTON.

The body of Charles T. Strong, who died in Vail, Iowa, on May IS, 1881 was last week brought by the express company to Great Harrington to be buried in the family lot in the cemetery in the south part of the village. Charlie, as he was called by his friends, spent his boyhood days in Ashley Falls, up to 1856, when he was appointed station agent at Canaan. After one year of service he was transferred to the general ticket office at Bridgeport, where he was employed as general ticket agent and auditor for many years, until his health failed him and he decided to follow Greeley's advice and go. west to Vail, Iowa, where his younger brother, Albert, was in trade and needed Charlie help. And there the last eight years of his life was mostly spent, where he died suddenly in his room alone of epilepsy.
 Charlie was well known by all the Housatonic railroad men of his time from Pittsfeld to Bridgeport. He often took the place of a conductor when any one was sick or needed rest for few days. His friends have placed g Quincey granite monument in the center of their lot, with Charities name and the perinscription on one side where his body is laid to rest
