Thursday night, at the Rink, was the crowning
social event of the season. The spacious Rink
was appropriately decorated for the occasion
and promptly at O'Clock, when Boston's famous

scene was one of exceeding attractiveness, over
eighty couples participating in the march.
This was followed by the drill of the Pythian
Cadets. of Cleveland. This organization is
composed of boys from to 13 years OF age, and
is undoubtedly the best drilled organization of
their age in the State. Their maneuvers were
executed with all the precision of a company Of

Saturday evening, John Rooney. an old man,
aged 6S years. who resided on the Newman farm,
about two and a-half miles south of town, on the
G. & P. railroad, was struck by the Alliance Ac-
commodation train. near the residence of Mr.. G..
W. Gladding, he was returning home from
town, One of his legs was broken in two places
and his back was broken just above the hips.
The engineer saw him and made every effort to
stop the train, but was unable to do so in time
to prevent the accident. The old gentleman was
quite deaf and failed to hear the warning whistle
in time to save himself. altough he was in the
act of leaving the track when run down. This
| train and the north bound express usually pass
at Ravenna, but this time the accommodation
had orders to run to New Milford, the express
| being late. 1t is supposed that Mr.. Rooney,
| thinking the train from the south was due first.
was not as careful as he would otherwise have
| been. The injured man was taken on board the
| train to New Milford. and brought back on the
| express. Although so terribly injured, he was
conscious after reaching this place, and told
his name and who his friends were. He died
soon after being taken from the train. The body
was taken to the Undertaking rooms of W. A.
| Jenkins & Co., and on Sunday Coroner Sherman
came over from Kent, but deemed an inquest un-
necessary. On inquiring into the facts. and the
body was taken charge of by friends.
Inc deceased came from chicago last July, to
enter the employ of Mr.. Congdon. the owner oi
the farm where he lived.
| message was sent to Arthur Rooney, son OF
the deceased. at Chicago. and reply was receiv-
ed directing that the body be kept until his ar
rival.
Mr.. Rooney is survived by four children two
sons and two daughters. who live in Chicago. and
on Monday Arthur. the one mentioned aboy e.
arrived and arranged for the funeral. which was
held yesterday. at o'clock. from the Catholic
Church. The deceased was straight forward
industrious man. whose whole life was spent in
faithful labor and in the conscientious perform.
ance of the duties falling to his lot. At the farm
where he lived since last July he was greatly
liked. both for his ability in the management O
the farm and fidelity to the interests confded t.
his keeping. Those who knew him also testify
to his excellent morals and correct habits o
living.

CHASE & SANBORN'S
CELEBRATED COFFEES!

Last night between and O'Clock, Charles
Gledhill, an employe at Kingsbury & Benefits
basket factory, stepped into vat of boiling hot
water, scalding both legs fearfully from the
feet above the knees. The accident was the re-
suit of some one carelessly leaving the cover
off from the vat. 1t is impossible at this time
to tell just how serious his injuries are but they
are bad enough at the best. He was resting
much more comfortably this morning, and it is
thought will ultimately recover the use of both
of his legs, although as stated above. the result
cannot be told with certainty for some time to
coma

He thus de scibes the effect of Undo Caucasian miscegenatiOn: eve have hardly wis tied a tribe of Indians without finding at least one white man married to an Indian girl or woman. The wife soon learns from him to live in house and to do the work, in a rough way, that women did in the house of his youth. She Is raised to higher mode of liv. ing, learns to dress fairly well and is a true friend and companion to het husband; but he himself usually has shruhk' away into a lower life His personal cleanliness suffers, his cloth ino Is sha6by and his self-respect is lowered.

There is nothing so injurious to any community as the retailing of gossip. It hurts both those who talk and those who are talked about. No home can be so pure that its sanctIty may not be invaded. No character. may be so spotless that these retailers of filth may not smirch it. From listening to with pleasure and repeating with greed the malacious stories which are told, the scanda[monger comes to exercising his own inventive genius, till the putres- cent appetite, growing by that upon which it feeds, passes beyond bounds, and the gossiper, rather than be de- prived of the pleasure of telling new tales of filth, will deliberately and wan tonly lie about those whom he knows to be above the breath of suspicion. $ A lascivious islander once started Is never permitted to die. There are too many to roll it as sweet morsel under their tongues. Hence it goes on it's destructive way, the poor victim the meanwhile totally unawares of the damage which is being done
 i The prevalence of such gossip is one of the features of the west. Why it should bs so, would require a longer dissertation that can at present be af- forded Whatever the reason, the fact cannot be denied A stranger having but little to do other than listening to the gossip of a western town, would soon be convinced that in that town honor among men and virtue among women had no existence. ,'- ...t .'
 To make the matter worse, the gos- sip-mongers are more frequently men, than. women. This is also western feature It is shame. It is a state of morals that calls for redress. The remedy lies in letting gossip alone.
 Every man, woman and child should eschew it. It should no more be per. mitted to enter the ear or to pass the lips than would dose of the most deadly prussic acid, The times are ripe for a reformation in this particu. Democrat. ,,--
