Still yourg in years, he has served his
district-well-in both houses Of the
Legislature.
Lunenburgh has two hotels--or
public houses-the Heights house, a
hotel for Summer boarders, and the
Maple Grove house. This house, kept
by Raymond Thomas, is where we had
the pleasure of stopping. This hostel
RE may not be as fashionable or "higlI
toned" as some Others, but guests are
sure of finding clean beds, and a table
supplied abundantly with the best
food the market affords. Rich milk,
pure honey and freshly caught brook
trout, some of which we helped to
catch, were among the luxuries of the
table. If genial Raymond Thomas
and his excellent wife assisted by that
intelligent octogenarian, Capt. Zenas
Snow,) cannot make you comforta BILE
and happy for a few days or weeks,
you must be very difficult to please.
We should add before closing this
article that the Portland & Ogdens-
burg Railroad running through the
White Mountain Notch crosses the
Connecticut River here and passes
through the southeastern part of the
town, with a station and telegraph
office at South Lunenburgh. On the
Boston, Concord & Montreal Railroad,
the station of South Lancaster is only
2 1-2 miles from Lunenburgh village.
The population of the township is,
we believe, exactly the same as it was
40 years ago. While some of the
rougher homesteads have been allow
ed to go to seed and be grown over
with bushes end weeds, good farms in
the township, convenient to the rail
roads, cannot be bought for less than
an advance of 600 per cent. since the
railroads have been built.
Further we should say that we also
visited the home of w. E. Balch, the
Lunenburgh carriage manufactures,
and who is also an ingenious, though
an amateur, taxidermist. Mr.. Balch
has a perfect museum of all kinds of
birds, quadrupeds, and insects peculiar
to that region, magnifcently mounted.
Proprietors Of museums wishing to re-
plenish their stock of curiosities will
do well to correspond with Mr.. Balch.
Altogether, our sojourn in Lunen-
burgh was one of the most enjoyable
episodes of an extended pleasant East
ern tour.

1t ought to console one that his past
mistakes may be helps to Others as
we'll as himself. A sensible farmer,
right in the flower of has manhood,
said to us the other day; "Before l
was twenty-one, l had not much of a
chance for education. After l was
twenty-one, was ashamed to go to
school. But now l see my mistake.
If | were to do it over again, l should
go to school after coming Of age il
had not done so before, as needed. Z"
This ought to set some young man to
thinking who has reached his MAORI
ty with lack of education he may be
deploring.

The Coos and Essex Fair.

The attendance at the fair of the
Coosand Essex Agricultural Society,
which opened at Lancaster last Tues
day, has been unusually large, as also
were the entries in all the depart
ments. The purse for horses that new
er trotted for money was won by Geo.
II. Fitzgerald's bay mare. Time 3,03@,
1903, 1903. The base ball game be-
tween the Colebrooks and Lancasters,
played on Tuesday, was won by the
Lancasters by score of II to 4. The
game on Wednesday between the Lit
tletons and Colebrooks, resulted in
the overwhelming defeat of the latter,
the score standing 80 to 0. Hon. Mil
ton Cook, of Bloomfield, secured the
first premium on butter. Essex coun-
ty has taken the first premium on but
ter for several years.
SAD ACCIDENT. Last. Saturday, the
Gorham base ball club, accompanied
by number of their friends, came to
Island Pond to play with the Eurekas.
In the evening, as they were about to
return home, "Quin" in attempting to
get on the train Chen in motion) made
IL mis-step and fell backwards, break
ing his leg just above the ankle. He
was quickly removed to the Stewart
House, where DR.. Pottle temporarily
bandaGcd the break, Quin being desir-
Gus of immediately returning to Cor
ham. Upon his arrival at the latter
place, q further examination of the in
jury revealed the fact that auputation
was necessary and the operation was
successfully performed on. Sunday
morning. This accident was a sad
ending to what had otherwise been q
day of pleasant intercourse and friend
lY rivalry between the two towns, and
we deeply deplore it. The injured
man is now progressing quite fayora-
bly,, although Oh Monday lust it was
reported here that he would not sur
vive the shock.

The Grand Trunk has notified the
management of the Hoosac Tunnel
Fast Freight Line that on aud after
the first of October they would with
draw that line from the road. The
reason given for this action is that the
Grand Trunk now carries more bust
ness from Chicago than the pool allows
it in its percentage, a fact that causes
it to carry freight at a loss. Another
cause ascribed for this step Is that the
company can considerably lessen its
expenses without injuring its business
The Commercial Express Company
aud the West Shore Railway have
perfected arrangements with Traffic
Manager Reeve for taking care of the

set for the jury, one of which, Presby
VS.. Blodgett, is now on trial. The
grand jury are "Wednesday evening"
still in session, and the result of their
labors will. as far as consistent with
the public interest, be made known

The Blaine and Logan flag at Island
Pond was pulled down the other
night and torn and disigured. In
tense indignation pervades the COM
munity.
The ABOVE item Is going the rounds
OF the State press. The story from
beginning to end is a most atrocious
falsehood. Nothing of the kind ever
occurred here, and, let party feeling
run ever so high, neither party would
stoop to such a contemplate action.
We presume the story originated from
the fact that the Blaine and Logan
flag was torn down at Lunenburgh a
short time since, and the particulars
were published in these columns under
the proper heading, More care should
be exercised in the use of the shears.
