Serious Accident at the Southwick Pond
 Ice House.
 A serious accident took place at the big ice house at Southwick Pond on Tuesday by the breaking of a pulley that was being used in hoisting ice for filling the ice house. A young man, grandson of Alvin Miller, aged 14 years, was handling the rope of the hoisting apparatus at the time and fell from the staging to the ice, a distance of thirty five feet, breaking his shoulder and one arm, besides sustaining internal injuries. Two surgeons were summoned from Westfield and Dr Mason of Suffield. The Westfield physicians say that the young man cannot recover, but Dr Mason, after passing Tuesday night with him, thinks he will live. It was a narrow escape from instant death.

A CONTRARY OLD HERMIT.
He Walks On the Railroad Track t.
 Scare the Engineers.

Scare the Engineers.
 Dave Warren, the old hermit of Beaver Brook, has spent the winter in the little cave in the rocks by the side of the Housatonic track, and he can be seen almost any pleasant day standing in front of his dwelling place, says the Danbury News. He always attracts attention from the passengers on the trains which pass the spot.
 The old man is a constant source of trouble to the engineers of the Housa- tonic and New York &, New England roads. He persists in walking on the tracks, and hardly day passes but he has hairbreadth escape from being struck.
 He IS old and infirm and thoroughly contrary and he seems to take delight in staying upon the track until he has barely time to crawl out of the way. The engineers are in constant fear of striking him, and they frequently whistle to warn him off the track. The louder the whistle blows the longer the old fellow stays between the rails.
