The State.

The Lime Rock railroad now has $50 cars
and it puts one in mind Of western railroad
footing and blowing. Saturday they brought
into Rockland 1000 casks of lime, that is the
rock which will make that amount. Mr..
Rodney FogR, superintendent, is working up
to be quite railroad man.
One Of the most important transfers of real
estate in Cumberland County has just taken
place. About two miles out Of the village
of Freeport, on the road to Brunswick is a
large granite quarry called the Grant quarry
1t has never been worked to any extent. T..
b. MAllett, Jr., of Freeport, has purchased
twelve acres and . half Of land including
this quarry and has a crew Of men at work
opening it up. 1t bids fair to become large
and valuable quarry. especially for heavy
rock. The Maine Central will extend a spur
track right up to the quarry, thus affording
an excellent chance for loading. This will
be another addition to the industries of Free
port that will give employment to more labor
and add to the prosperity Of the town.

As the train approached Turner's vile, Conn.,, running fully forty miles an hour tho axle of the forward truck of the smoker broke. The dragging of the wheels checked the train before it reached a switch. It smashed the switch rod and so turned the guide rail that the three pas senger cars broke their connection with the smoker and passed on to branch track. The smoker was turned over on its sido, but not one of it's numerous inmates was injured. The passenger cars were passed around the wreck and ill less than forty minutes the train was again on its way to New Yoak

HUMAN JUSTIFICATION.

A Case That Is Causing Much Comment
 Among Medical Men.
 There is case of human justification here in the person of Mrs. E. Palmer, of Clinton, Oneida County, writes a Glen's Falls (N. Y) correspondent. Mrs. Palmer fell vic tim to her peculiar disease about elght years ago. Some three months ago she was brought here by Rev. George Eddy for the purpose of giving her the benefit of "faith cure," under his own treatment. Locally the case is known as that of the petrifed woman, and it is causing much comment among medical men. All her joints except one shou lder are perfectly rigid, and her whole body is as stiff as bone. Her lower limbs have stiffened in bent position while her arms lie helpless, but as though at case, by her sides. Her jaws are secure ly locked, but as some of her teeth are gone she manages to take food and to carry on all necessary conversation. As if to aggra- vate her condition, she is totally blind, and yet she is of cheerful disposition, and especially enjoys having people talk to her. Faith cure in her case has been a total fail ure, although it has been practiced upon her In all the forms known to those who be- lieve in it.
 Mrs. Palmer is thirty-five years old. She was married some years ago and was then in good health, but after she became thus disabled her husband went to Connecticut and procured a divorce. Mrs. Palmer's mother left small fortune. Her sisters waived their rights, thus enabling the af. flicted woman to have every comfort pos sible to her condition. Medical men pro- nounce this as complete a case of ossifica- tion as ever came under thelr notice. Her mind does not appear to be at all affected. During the progress of her disease she has taken particular pleasure in composing verses, and her memory is so tenacious that she can mentally frame poem and dictate it word for word afterward. This has been done so often that a collection of these verses has been printed, making quite ar entertaining volume.

sons of Revolutionary Sires.

BOSTON, April ao-A meeting of the de- scendents of Revolutionary patriots of Massachusetts was held at Fremont hall for the purpose of forming an organization particularly with reference to the coming celebration of the inauguration of Wash ington. About two hundred gentlemen and some ladies attended. Secretary Ward read greetings from the organizations of the Sons of the Revolution in Connecticut, New York and elsewhere. He then called upon those present whose fathers fought in the Revolution to rise and nineteen mon re- sponded. The venerable group was heart fly applauded. A constitution was adopted limiting the membership to the descend ants of those who had done military duty in the Revolutionary war.
