WESTMINSTER.

Harry Fem, aged six years, is quite i'll
with rheumatic fever.
II. c. Lane went to Chicopee Saturday,
returning Tuesday.
There are lots of visitors in Westminster,
some coming and some going.
The Christian Endeavor delegates, Misses
Alma Fisher, Hattie Burwell and Ada Cor
liss, started for New York Wednesday,
Rev. c. A. Dickinson is also in attendance
The Fourth of July celebration at Bel
lows Falls was immense" A large dele
CATION from Westminster attended. The
day passed more quietly than usual here on
account of sickness on the street.
The young people are to give an enter
tainment in the town hall next Tuesday
evening, when they will be assisted by the
guests at the Hattie Goodridge home. The
program will be a varied one, consisting of
vocal and instrumental music and other
exercises, and a very enjoyable evening is
anticipated. Cake and ice cream will be
served in the lower hall. The object is to
get funds to reseat the church, and a large
attendance is hoped for.
Two young ladies and young gentle
man driving home from Walpole Wednes-
day evening of last week during a thunder
shower, were precipitated down an EN-
bankment just above II. A. Wizards. The
lightning caused the horse to jump, break
ing the railing and landing them all in
small brook in such way that assistance
was called before they could get the horse
up. No particular harm was done aside
from fright, some spoiled clothes, and
some bruises on the horse, which is all
right now. A better ending than such ac-
cidents often have.
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1892-07-08

The Fourth was a bright pleasant day
but unseasonably cool, and among the
banners carried in the parade was one by
the prize band, on which was printed,
"This band was organized July 4th, 1892,
and froze to death"
Mrs. Willard Russell of Lancaster, Mass,
who was for many years a resident of this
place, died at her home in Lancaster Sun
day. She was the mother of George X.
Russell, and was a woman who was re-
spected and beloved by all who knew her.
The new time table which went into
effect on the Fitchburg road on Monday
gives very excellent passenger service
over the Cheshire branch. The most note
worthy improvement is a new Sunday
train each way between Bellows Falls and
Boston.
A meeting of the Republican town com
mittee was held Saturday and these Off
GERS were chosen: Chairman, Ina II. All
bee; secretary, Geo. II. Babbitt, jr.; eXecu-
tive committee, Il. II. Allbee, DIR. f. II.
Pettengill, ID. =. Higgins, II. b. Davis, G..
II. Babbitt, ir.
d. ID. Howard met with serious acct
dent Wednesday afternoon, while cleaning
machinery connected with his business in
one of the paper mills. He was cleaning
the rolls with large cloth which in some
way wound about his right arm and drew
it between the rolls up to the elbow. 9th
er men who were at work in the room ran
to his assistance, slipping the belt off and
prying open the rolls to eXtricate the arm.
The hand and arm were fearfully crushed
and bones broken in five places.
During the firing of cannon on the
morning of the Fourth the cannon sta
toned on Pine hill burst, and a piece of
iron weighing 80 or IS pounds was thrown
through the roof of the house on Canal
street occupied by A. f. Winnewsser and
Geo. Andrews. 1t crashed through the
roof and the floor below, falling in
closet near the room occupied by Mrs. An
drews. Fortunately no one was hurt,
though it would seem almost impossible
that an accident of that kind could happen
without serious results. The piece of can
non has been on exhibition in the store of
Mr.. Winnewisser on Canal street.
The Fall Mountain Paper company of
Bellows Falls, after having laid out a large
amount of money in clearing White river
for log floating purposes, find themselves
still short of water in the branch running
up through West Rochester, and will now
lay out more cash in the building of large
reservoirs from which at the proper season
the water may he let out in sufficient guam
titles to hurry the logs down stream. 4
vast amount of timber is to be cut in that
locality the present season, and it looks as
though the corporation in question had
big job on hand in converting White river
into practicable highway for logs.

The Peoples Party Knocks Them All
Out for Noise.

Well, the Peoples party has one proud
claim 10 make, and that is that its stock of
enthusiasm was fiery and hoarse and jubi-
liant, and ear-splitting and hysterical be-
yond anything witnessed either at Chicago
or at Minneapolis. The claim seems to
hold good, too, judging from the story of
an eyewitness. The state standards were
snatched from their places and carried to
the platform, and men climbed upon chairs,
tables and each others shoulders until the
high poles touched the roof. A drum corps
played, but only those near by could hear
the drum beats, though the drummers piled
their sticks with might and main. Hun
dreds of hoarse voices finally broke forth
into the notes of "Old Hundred The
men heading them arching procession seized
a negro delegate, raised him high above
their shoulders and made the circuit of the
great hall. Capt. Lloyd of New Rochelle
pulled flute from his pocket and piped
Yankee Doodle" at the top of his lungs,
but the tune could not be heard three feet
away. Mrs. Vickery of Kansas interrupted
his playing by throwing her arms around
his neck and kissing him. If the peoples
party procession marches through the
streets with the same emotions this fall, it
may be as well, perhaps, to view the par
ade from behind an iron fence.

4 Modern Hattie Shin.

The battle ship Texas, the first one of
that class in the new navy, was launched
at Norfolk, Va, last week She is the
first armor clad battleship ever put into
the water by the United States. 1t has
taken six years TO construct her. She is
double turreted, with a length of 200 feet,
an extreme breadth of "a feet, inch and
a nodded depth of 80 feet inches. Her
mean draught of water will be % feet u
inches, while with 500 tons of coal aboard
she will be able to steam II knots per
hour. The vessel is built of steel through
out, with double bottom so arranged that
the compartment may be used for water
ballast. The principal armament consists
of two 26-inch and six 6-inch breech-load-
ing rifles, the secondary battery compris-
ing II 6-pounder and four l-pounder rap
id fire guns, four Hotchkiss revolving can
non and two Gatlings. Her armor is

EclchVille.

As Mrs. Gibson Of Chester was driving
to Amsden recently her horse became
frightened at some object beside the road,
jumped to one side throwing her ont and
cutting her face so badly that it was nee
essary for a physician to take - stitches.
a sad accident occurred at Claremont
\. H., last week Thursday. While driv-
ing one of Charles Amsden's four-horse
lime teams Charles BiXby was severely in
jured. The horses becoming frightened,
ran and threw Mr.. BiXby against the curb
stone. He was taken up for dead but con
seriousness being restored after a time, he
was brought to his home at Amsden. Sc
we're injuries were found on his head and
in the region of the heart. His condition
is very critical.
