 Our roads are in fearful state-as they are in other localities. With the ex. tra expense attending their repair. the snow blockade, the loss from the Stafford bank dedication, the town will have had an unfortunate fiscal year.
 There will doubtless be crowd at the Ruby auction tomorrow forenoon. On Saturday forenoon there is another auction in town. The Harvey Bidwell farm is to go to the highest bidder.
 In our notice last week of the death of Rev. A. V. Dimock, we are made to say, "Though . pretentious man, etc." The word 'snot" was by some mistake left out.

 The community was startled last Sat- urday morning by the sudden death of Mrs. Albert Sharp. She had been ailing somewhat during the past winter with what was supposed to be nalariaI troubles, but of late had been able Go be about the house to some extent. The end came about 8 o'clock without warning. Mrs. Sharp was highly esteemed in the community. She was awoman whose sterling christian char. acter was borne out by great native good sense, and refinement. She will be greatly missed, especially in the Baptist church, with which she united when she was twelve years old. Her stricken husband and daughters have the deep sympathy of all in their great afiiction. The funeral was largely attended from the house on Tues day forenoon. Relatives4and friends were present from Holyoke and Springfield, Mass, Vernon, Willimantic, Mansfield, etc. Pastor Terry's address was very eloquent and touching. Rev. Mr. Bartlett of Holyoke assisted in the services. His supplement tary remarks of tender appreciation of the departed and sympathy with the bereaved friends were beautiful and consoling. Thus has passed away another worthy represen- tative of the old original Willington fam flies. s-.l.-rsf-<

The Seven Bibles of the World.

The seven Bibles OF the world are the Koran
of the Mohammedans, the Eddas OF the Sean
dinavians, the Try PltiIes of the Buddhists,
she Five Kings OF the Chinese, the three
Vedas of the Hndo0s, the Zendavesta and the
Scriptures of the Christians. The Koran is
the most recent OF these seven Bibles, and not
older than the seventh century OF our era. 1t
Is "A compound of quotations from the Old aud
New Testaments, The Talmud and the gospel
of st. Barnabss. The Eddas of the Scandina-
vians were fist published in The fourteenth
century. The Pitikes and the Buddhists con-
tain sublime morals ard pure aspirations, but
their author died in the sixth century before
Christ There is nothing OF excellence in these
sacred books not found in the Bible. The
sacred writings OF the Chinese are called the
Five Kings, king meaning web of of CLOTH or
the warp that keeps the thread in their place.
These sayings cannot be traced TO period
higher than the eleventh century b. G. The
three Vedas are the most ancient books OF the
Hmdoos. The Zendavesta of the Persians is
the grandcst of all the sacred books next "a
our Bible. Zoroasler whose sayings ii con.

New Gold Fields in South Africa.

Pastor Brincker. a missionary, writes from
Otyimblrgue that five gold dlggcrs had ar
rived there from Australia in the preceding
month in search OF gold. Two were sons Of
an old Englishman who, thirty-three years
ago, found gold at the old copper mines at
Otyimbiugue. They had been saving money
for q long time in order Ia prosecute the
search further, and they soon found the scene
ol the former discovery The missionary saws
the diggers are astonished at the riches Of
the vein.
's1hc Jumps OF gold" he says, "may be seen
with tho naked eve. ID. GorinC imperial com
missioner, believes taat millions of marks
worth are lying 1t this one place, The spot is
below AhnawOOl eight hours hence, I'm sort
of island IN the bed Of the Tsoakoub. There is
more water than is dies red, FOR the diggcrs
scent alluVial gold in The bed OF the stream.
According to- the evidence Of these experience
ed men, the place is richer than any in Austria
liz. And now the gold hunt is going TO be-
gin.n
In the view OF this gentleman it will only be
possible TO work the veins by means of dyna-
mite and stamping machines, so that compa-
MES will be required having at command con
siderable capital. The Eberiield mission re-
ports that gold has also been found in four
places between thirty and forty English miles
below Otymbinguc. Time.

Mr.. Pinkerton,s Horseradlsh.

In connection with the recent dynamite
alarms not bad story is told on Mr. Pinker-
ton. lie is rather fond of horseradish with
his meat, and about ten days ago bought a
can Of the relish and ordered it sent to his
house, He forget to tell his wife about it.
Mrs. Pinkcrton, it appears, has feared some
vicious person would yet make an attempt on
her husbands life, and when the servant girl
told her of thearrival of a can of something
which she could not recollect ordering, be-
came alarmed ut once and ordered the girl TO
take it into the back yard and leave IL there un
Ill Mr.. PinkertOn's return. The girl lid as d.
rected, but not having n sufficient fear Of
dynamite before her eyes, and impcied by
natural gift OF woman, curiosity concluded
TO open the can and see what 10 obtained. She
carefully removed the top and sustained no
damages. There was no explosion aud no rem
nants OF hired girl went gyratng through the
atmosphere of the ncighborhoOd She looked
whitish damp substance. Curiosity still had
its grip upon her and she concluded TO taste
that which looked so harmless. She put q
small quantity of the stuff into her mouth
and chewed 1t. The result was not altogether
satisfactory, the compound burned her tongue,
ana she fed TO the house and To her mistress.
With tears in her ewes she confessed what she
had done, and then her mistress was only
less alarmed than she. 1T is poison! 10 is
certainly poison ~ was the frightened exclama-
ton, and then presence OF mind returned.
The girl must take an cmetic. One was pre-
pared, the domestic took IL, and when Mr.
PinkertOn returned he found his wife reason
ably calm, and his hired girl wan End interest
ing, but, In no immediate danger OF death.
He found his horseradsh in the back yard,
where it had not been interfcred with after
the episode rclated.-Chicdg0 Tribune
