The Timid Horse and the Pig.

Professor SanbOrn, the horse trainer,
had a class of the hOrsemen of Lyndon
Vile and vicinity at d. M. Silsby's sta
BILE, last week Wednesday and Thurs
day. On Wednesday no kickers were
on hand to be handled, so Austin
HoughtOn proposed to bring in his
mare, remarking that there weren't
enough men there to keep that mare
in the barn if a pig were brought in.
The mare was brought in and some of
the men took sack and went for a
pig. The professor put his little bri-
die on the mare and, in about two min
utes, in they came with good sized
and lively shoat which was dumped on
the floor and chased about by those
present. The professor following the
pig with the mare, which showed so
much Indifference to his pigship that
the class concluded she did not see
him. So Mr.. Pig was caught by two
men and held up close to the mares
face, giving vent to his opinion by do
ing some tall sqnealing. The mare
pricked her ears and looked at the pig
enquiringly, seeming to say: whats
troubling youf" The utter indifference
of the mare to the pig raised the laugh
on Mr.. HOughton, and those present
concluded that it was he who was afraid

A REAL NECESSITY.

"DOwn train on time 2" asked a gen.
tleman of Station agent Henderson the
other morning.
"Thirty five minutes late," answered
Mr.. Henderson, who happens to be one
of those sort of men who are some
times heard of but seldom seen in rail-
road stations ; man who stands ready
to answer any number and all sorts of
questions in Il courteous and pleasant
manner.
"Well, WE'LL" says the gent, 1875
minutes late have some ladies with
me, where can we wait ?'
Mr.. Henderson scratched his head.
Sure enough where could lady find Il
suitable place in which to spend a half
hour? That little pen to the north of
the station was not to be thought of >;
every seat in it was occupied and many
were standing in the door way. Look
ing around the main room just about
every other man was making more or
less successful efforts to hit, with to-
baccO juice or tobacco guilds, the va
riOus spittOons that were placed at
convenient or incOnvenient distances.
To be sure every man in the room
wasn't smoking, but enough of them
were smoking to make the fact appar-
ent to the least sensitive nasal organ in
the establishment.
This bit OF experience led the scribe
to ask why better accommodations are
not given the travelling public in our

many people get on and off the cars
For travelling men it is all right; fol

COUNTY COURT.

There have been but three or four
cases before the court the past week.
In the case of A. B. Farnham VS. John
Ewell, Peacham parties, that was not
concluded when the CaledOnian went
to press last week, the jury rendered a
verdict for the plaintiff for $l2l.25.
In the case of the Merchants bank
ST. JOhnsbury VS. j. K. Brown, Il YER
dict was found for the plaintiff for
$l28.46 and costs. In this case Brown
was charged with drawing money from
the Merchants bank that did not be-
long to him.
In the State VS. Russell alias Little,
for assault and battery, a verdict was
brought in of not guilty. Russell was
charged with assaulting S. Hale Ran
som of Hardwick, the defence being that
he acted in self defense.
In d. G.. Harrington VS. Philip Pei
key verdict was given the plaintiff
for SIP. Pelkey of st. Adams some
how came possessed of horse which
Harrington claimed belonged to him
and the jury evidently took the same
view of the case.
The case of the State VS. Kate East
man has occupied the attention of the
court and room full of spectators the
last two or three days. Kate Eastman
is charged with having eommitte,
adultery with Wallace Hartman o
this place. A lot of testimony of al
unsavOry character was presented b!
the state to show repeated acts of adul
terry between these parties. The de
fence was a general denial. The cas-
went to the jury this morning and the.
returned a verdict of guilty on tw
counts.

CHRIsrsIAs GATHERINGs.
How 90 be os.srvsd On sa. gshn.sary.

Christmas seems likely To lee cob
served" this year with rather more
than the usual amount Of .ejoieings
and interehanges of greetings aud
presents. Naturally enough il Is =.
the churches that tl.e holiday will be
nl.s=='TTed with the greater degree Of
fOrmality and informality and fun.
Here are some of the notices Of Christ
mas gatherings:
The North church Sunday school has
an appropriate Christmas exercise sun
day evening, consisting largely of mu-
sic. The birthday box will be opened,
and ex Gov. Fairbanks will give his
usual elegant books to the small child
rem who have kept their text books
and attended the morning service
through the year.
AT the South church very interest
iBg Christmas program has been ar
ranged for Tomorrow evening. There
will be singing and speaking and other
exercises appropriate To the season.
At the Methodist church the night
before Christmas will make it's appear
ance on Friday evening. The mystery
that always surrounds the Methodist's
observance of Christmas is sure to
bring forth rich surprise and lots of
presents for the youngsters.
At the Presbyterian church there
will be Christmas tree with exercises
by the little folks Friday evening.
At the Church of the Messiah there
will be Il Christmas tree Friday even
ing, Christmas sermon Sunday after
noon and Christmas concert by the
Sunday school Sunday evening. The
festival seems likely to be pretty
thoroughly remembered" at this
church.
At the Free Baptist church there
will be Christmas tree Friday even
ing, exercises beginning at Z o'clock,
and the young people of the Sunday
school will give Christmas concert
Sunday evening. A specially attrac-
tive program appropriate to Christmas
has been arranged, with recitations
and singing by the children, closing
with an object lesson sermon, "Christ-
mas candle-light," by the pastor. A
special Christmas program has also
been arranged for the morning service,
with a sermon by the pastor.
At the Catholic church there will be
a midnight mass at IL 80 o'clock Fri
day evening, low mass at o'clock
Christmas morning and high mass at
10 O'Clock.
The Y. M. C. A. will keep merry
Christmas both pleasantly and profit
ably. There will be service of song
in the association building at SIS p.
M, Sunday evening. Rev. c. M. Lam
son will give the young men a Christ
mas talk at that time. All young men
are cordially invited to be present and
will be cordially welcomed.

Railroad Notes.

The Boston 81 Montreal express
line is to be discontinued, and the cars
of the several railroads in it are now
being appraised, preparatory to with
drawal. This line was formed i'm 1881
for passenger business, by the Boston
& Lowell, Concord, Northern and
Central Vermont railroads, thus COW
ering the roads from Boston to Mon
treal.
The passenger agents of the Central
Vermont, Passumpsic, Connecticut
River, Boston & Lowell and New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroads were
in conference last week and arranged
a reduced schedule of rates for north
and south and New York travel, to go
into effect the first day of January.
All the through rates are reduced near
ly ten per cent.
Lucius futile accepts the position
of general passenger agent of the Ca
of traffic over land and water routes
aggregating 900 miles and have to
create arrangements for scores of new
tributary lines. He will remove to
Montreal, January L.
1t seems more and more probable
that something beyond "a mere traffic
contract is concealed behind the nego-
tiations now going on between the
Boston and Lowell and the Canadian
Pacific, and that the operations really
mean closer alliance between the two
