ASHFORD. Westford.

-Frederick, William F. and Miss Alma W. BisseH and Miss Emily J. Chism have returned to Monson academy for the win ter term.
 Rev. Oscar Bissell has closed a fif- teen years pastorate with the Congrega- honal church and has accepted an invita- tion from the church at Holland, Mass. to locate there. He preached his last sermon at Westford on Sunday last and will at once assume the new pastoral re- lations with the church at Holland. Many warm friends will be glad that his removal is to no greater distance.
 Christmas passed off very quiet here, as there were no doings at either church. At the axefactory schoolhouse the Sun- day school had tree, and large num- Der of people gathered to enjoy the exer- ercises. The children did themselves much credit in speaking, and all were re- membered by Santa Claus.
 Quite a number are sick with the grip, but as a general thing in a lighter form than two years ago.

caNSSSSSSSSS SSSSASSSSSS
 Springfield, December, 1891.
 We take stock the last of this week; that. is, count ev- erything and value everything. There are things that we don't like to count; things that ought to have gone before Christmas, or when col d weather begun; things that are likely to be in the way and make care for months to come, and get damaged and be old when their season be- gins again. It is wise to let such things go easily, have their room and begin anew next year.
 Don't misunderstood us now. Not a quarter of our things will be marked down; only those that are hurt by keeping over.
 Bargain racks are full of garments below cost; first class garments, of which these are but a few examples: < 2.
 Diagonal cheviot reefers with full-shawl collar of gray Krimmer, marked down from $14 to $1o. Diagonal cheviot reefer with vest and astrakhan shawl collar, marked down from SIS to $1o. Hip-seam coats with mink collar, mark ed down from $22 to SIS. Long newmarkets with ad- unstable military capes, mark ed down from SIS to $ro; girls newmarkets of the same description marked down from SIP to $8. Girls fur-trimmed jackets marked down from $8 to S5; sIo to $7.5o; SIP to $o; $I6 to SIP, etc. c
 And this is what, we mean by first-class garments below cost.
 Second floor.
 About a dozen fur jackets are left, which is too little for business. We shall let them go for half value on that ac- count. If one happens to find a fit amongst them, she gets a s45 or $50 jacket for $22.5o or $25.

 w. R. Laidlaw, who says he was used as 8 shield by Russell Sage on the mem- orable day of the explosion in MT. Sage's office, says he shall bring suit for dam- ages, of course on the ground that Mir. Sage meant to sacrifice Laidlaw's life to save his own. His story is, in brief, that when he entered the office Mir. Sage, who had never before done such thing, seized his hand, drew him (Laidlaw) between himself and the stranger who was talking to him, kept him in that position, and backed away, still keeping Laidlaw be- tween himself and the dynamiter. Then the explosion occurred. Laidlaw was badly injured, and Sage suffered no great harm. The flying fragments that struck Laidlaw in the back would, if his story is true, have hit Mir. Sage in the abdomen, but for the latter's prudence in having 8 human barricade MT. Laidlaw thinks he can prove all the essential facts in this story, and if the matter ever comes to trial some of the testimony will be worth reading.

Miss Mattie Aborn, teacher of our district school, sang finely with her scholars song appropriate for the time, and little Bessie Neff greatly pleased us with song.

WILIIN0ION dOLLUW
 A "happy thought" struck the East Wilmington folks this Christmas. Instead of giving their kindly tokens of affection to each other at their homes, all gathered at the school house around one common Christmas tree, and each had the pleasure of seeing every one else's happiness. The joy of the children in the number and va- riety of presents on the tree was unbound ed, and the old folks felt the glow of 9 common humanity drawing them more closely together, as they realized how. pleasant and right thing it is to give pleasure to all in common. The spirit of the Christ-child was truly abroad in the little Hollow" and every one in the place received some remembrance. There are hopes that this plan, so pleasantly commenced this year, will be tried again..

Good order on the train will be enforced as usual. This is great spectacular play, also involves some fine dramatic efforts. The Ottawa Daily Citizen says: "Mr. Morrison's Mephisto is 8 characterization of really remaa kable power and subtlety in it's cold malignity as in it's fiendish humor. Miss Florence Roberts, as Marguerite, acted with 8 singularly powerful truth of feel ing. The passionate agony of her appeal to Valentine, her brother, as he dies after the duel with Faust at the close of the third act, was supremely affecting. The Valentine of MT. R. w.

"a. He was born in Fayettee County.
in that State, on October 10, 1888, and
would, consequently. have been one
hundred and eight years old had he
lived eight weeks longer. He used to
say that he remembered distinctly the
day of Washington's second election to
the presidency, and his first vote was
cast for jefferson. His habits We're
simple, he was rather careful
in his diet, drank a little whisky oeca-

What probably contributed as much as
anything else to the pr%olongation of
his life was cheerful disposition and
a remarkable evenness of temper.
