THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
The Work of a VandaI.

Buildings Burned, Cattle Poisoned and
Other DepredatiOns Committed In Toll
land County, Conn.
Mansfield and other adjoining rural
towns of Tolland county, Connecticut,
have been terrorized for nearly three years
by an extraordinary series of outrages. In
the past year and half not less than l3
barns and shops belonging to farmers in
Mansfield were burned, many cattle were
disembowelled or hamstrung in their pas
ture in the daytime, and three or four
times the handsome Congregational church
in Mansfield was disfgured with obscene
pictures that covered half the walls. Twice
or three times the schoolhouse in the same
village was fired with train of kerosene
oil and shavings. Within few weeks cattle
have been poisoned with arsenic and Paris
green at Salem and Lebanon. In other
towns cattle have been disabled in the
fields, in some cases having their legs
broken with stones. 1t is thought that
one man is the perpetrator of all the
crimes.

Land Boom Along the Niagara.

There is great boom in land on the
Canadian side of the Niagara river, and
American and English spectators are tax
ing all that is offered at large figures, much
of it going at $1,000 an acre. The cause of
the boom is a granting of lease of the
water-power of the Horseshoe falls by the
Ontario government to men who are inter
ested in the Cataract Construction cnompa-
ny on the American side, thus allowing one
concern to have full control of the cataract
connections for developing 10000 horse
power. The rental is to increase gradually
for 20years until it reaches $50, 900 a year

five cents pound for it. Then they
gorged themselves, and two days later John
died in great agony Jerry was very sick,
but recovered. Both boys vomited guam
