The Boston Evening Transcript, in
speaking of the exhibition to be held there
from Oct. to Oct. "A, says, "The great
revenue that is sure to come to the Boston
retail grocer's association from the eXposi-
ton will be developed to fund for the
erection of grocer's exchange in this city,
which will be the Boston headquarters of
every grocer in New England" Isn't this
in harmony with Edward Bellamy's plan
for the year 1000?
Mr.. and Mrs. Edgar Allen and son Leon

HINSDALE, N. H.

c. d. Whitaker q Son and f. c. Rob
ertson have bought an extensive water
right from Daniel Duggan, owner of the
old Atwood place on the Chesterfield road.
They are to dig several springs and reser-
voir on Duggan's land, from which they
will get an uniailiug supply of water.
For lighting the streets Hinsdale spends
about 500 year with poor results, while
her neighbor, Winchester, at an eXpendi-
ture of little more than twice that sum-
until recently has had the benefits of cleo
trio lights, an Il now a number of public
spirited citizens of the latter place have
formed company with a capital of $4,000
to furnish both the arc and incandescent
light, and will place some of the stock up
on the market at $50 per share. Hinsdale
citizens might well follow this example and
no doubt an investment of this kind would
be fully as profitable as those in the So
called benefit associations, and some of the

The New senator from vermont.
IFrom the New York Press.


1t is a somewhat remarkable fact that
two such men as Edmunds and Nor
rill should have represented one small state
in the Senate together for nearly % years.
Each of these men long ago reached the
Craftsmanship of the principal com
mittees of the Senate-the judiciary and
Finance committees. This shows what
one small state can do when it sends strong
men to the Senate and then keeps them
there. With the entrance of Redfield
Proctor a man of the same type is again
preferred. That he will be elected by the
legislature of Vermont and reelected as
long as he lives or cares to hold the office
may be assumed. If other states, larger
and more pretentious than Vermont, would
only take a leaf out of her book and send
such men to the Senate there would be no
cause for complaint about the degeneracy
of that body.

Serious Grade Crossing Accident at
North Hatfield.

Serious Grade Crossing Accident at
North Hatfield.
North Hatfield was the scene of terri
BILE accident last Friday afternoon by which
young man and boy were instantly killed
by fast express train on the Connecticut
River road and an aged man was seriously
and perhaps fatally injured. The persons
concerned in the tragedy were Eurotas
Norton who is about 80 and a well-to-do
farmer, William, his son, a bright boy of
II, and Charles Atkins, the five-years-old
son of Frederick G.. Atkins of New York
city and nephew of the elder Morton
They had been with a team from West
Farms, on the east side of the Connect
cut River railroad, where the Mortons live
across the track to a saw-mill, and were re-
turning with load of lumber when the
horse took fright at the Montreal express
train, which leaves Greenfield at % and
ran upon the track. The horse was struck
by the locomotive and cut almost in two
and the wagon smashed into kindling wood.
The young man was throw many feet and
picked up dead, his skull being split open
at the back. The Atkins boy had his face
badly cut and his skull was crushed. The
elder Morton sustained internal injuries
and his recovery is doubtful. Young Nor
ton was recent graduate of Smiths acad-
envy, and was a promising young man.
The Atkins boy had come to Hatfield with
his mother only the day before for a visit
with the Morton family.
