SUSPICIOUS MOVEMENTS.

There was a singular affair in this
vicinity last Sunday which needs ex-
planation. A man appeared in East
Lyndon and claimed to be in search
of a girl to help his sick wife in ST.
Johnsbury. He finally made a bar
gain with a young woman and they
started off in a wagon together. In
stead of driving toward ST. Johns
bury the man headed toward West
Concord. The girl insisted that they
were on the wrong road, and the
man turned and drove to this place,
passing down through the village
toward the fair ground. When down
by the dry bridge the girl became
suspicious and asked him where he
lived. The man gave some evasive
reply, and said he must 60 to Dan
vile. Upon this the girl demanded
to be driven back, and when the man
hesitated she said she should call for
help. Upon this the man jumped out
of the wagon and escaped, and the
girl drove back home to East Lvn-
don. The next day man came from
Barton and claimed the team. and
said the thiefs name is Jarvis.

Baptist church Thursday night, un-
der the auspices of the Kings Daugh-

able affair. The pulpit was hand
somely decorated with flowers. The
Mahogany quartet appeared four
times and were twice recalled. 'The
old Kentucky home" solo by P. F.
Hazen, was the clubs best effort,
though the "bill of fare" was so well
executed that the audience were hun
cry for more music and the club re-
sponded with a dainty good night
song. Miss Ina Howe's piano solo
was well received and she was pre-
sented with a bouquet at the close
Miss Ellen Ely sang a love song
sweetly and Miss Annie Daniels
showed in her piano solo that she
had good, clear touch. E. n. Fol
som favored the audience with a vo-
cal solo, and Miss Mary p. Putney

ment with a short address in which

zation and the good it was accom-
plishing all over the land The musi-

was pleasing concert by the Liste-

bers of the club gave varied pro-
gram and played well together. The
leader, Bernhard Listemann, gave a
choice encore to we'll executed vio-
lin solo and the cello solo by Mr.
Giese was fine thing and well re-
ceived. Mr.. RoncOni was a disap-
pointment as a bass singer but is
one of the best flute solOists that ever
came here. His solo was perhaps
the gem of the evening, abounding in
difficult and delicate passages. Mrs
Priests first selection failed to meet
with approval but in "A life for a
life," she exhibited much dramatic
power. Her last selection "Aunty

ACCIDENTS TO BRAKEMEN.

Charles Blood of Whitefeld, n. H.,
brakeman on the Lake road, met
with one of those strange accidents
Saturday afternoon which are liable
to occur anytime on the rail AS an
extra freight train was rounding a
curve at West Concord village sever
al thousand feet of lumber sloughed
off of one of the cars and carried
Blood with it. He was partially
buried under the lumber and it was
some little time before his absence
was noticed. He was brought to ST.
Johnsbury in the evening and medi-
cal examination showed that his left
arm was broken in two places, with
compound fracture, and his left
collar bone and shoulder blade was
broken. His condition is considered
critical and internal injuries are
feared
On Monday afternoon William
Daniels of Newburv, brakeman on
Liz WAS nll Ill
the freight yard at this place. He
was in position to shackle two cars
with his back to the approaching
car. The latter had broken truss
projecting a little and was on its
way to the repair shops. Daniels did
not notice this and the truss struck
him in the back, badly squeezing him
between the two cars. Had it not
been for a big nut on the end of the
truss the iron would have been driven
through his body. No bones are
broken and a speedy recovery is
hoped for.
Thursday mornings report from
the two men was that Blood was
still in critical condition, and that
Daniels would probably recover
The latter's injuries proved more Sc
rious than was first reported, but
he has been gaining slowly since yes
terday morning.

ture upon his camp life in Siberia.
Mr.. Kennan considers this his best
lecture and those who have heard it
and the one on the Siberian exile sys-
tenn speak very highly of the formerin
comparison with the latter. Besides
the many who have read his articles
in the Century it is worth mention
ing that his book, Tent life in Sibe-
ria has been out of the Athenaum
all the time for over year.

FAIR GROUND IMPROVEMENT

The directors of the Fair Ground
company met last week and voted to
have the repairs on the track done
this fall, and let the contract to Jo-
scph Cloutier for 81 200. The contract
provides for raising the track on the
back side from four to six feet by
taking dirt from the hill inside the
race track. The grand stand will be
raised, and when these improvements
are completed every part of the track
can be seen from the seats. Besides
the necessary repairs on the buildings
the directors are talking of building
a poultry shed. The last fair netted
the association about $500.
