THE WEATHER.

The past week has been noted for
the heavy rains the first part of
the week and the cold nights later in
the week 1t rained so hard Sunday
afternoon and the following night
that the streams began to rise very
rapidly, and it was feared that more
damage would be done by the high
water. Early on the morning of the
Fourth the sun came out and all
fears of danger from another food
were allayed. Monday was the
coldest Fourth of July we have had
for many years, and it looked as if
there was going to be a frost that
night. The usual precautions of
covering up plants were taken by
several in town, but no frost came,
though in some sections Of the state
it was only prevented by heavy
fog. The farmers have begun their
haying and a large crop is assured.

er money paid for the service OF a

Blake was an action in which the
plaintiff, who signed a note with the
defendant as surety, claimed that the
defendant agreed to save him, the
plaintiff, from loss, and brought
this action to recover what he paid,
but a verdict was rendered for the
defendant.
The sawdust case Of Kingsbury VS..
Goslant was next taken up, and on
Saturday the court took recess till
Tuesday morning, when the trial OF
the case was resumed. A session

PRESENTATION.

1t has turned out that the purse
which was found in Music hall cellar
belonged to Lambert Packard,
and not to Littleton gentle
man. The purse had a ten cent
scrip and a three cent piece left in
it, and the Colonial club, of which
Mr.. Packard is a member, decided to
make Mr.. Packard's loss good. The
wei known architect was called into
Fairbanks store and Senator Mich OILS,
corporation counsel for the club,
addressed President Packard as fol-
lows:
THE timely discovery in the rear
of Music hall has informed your
friends of the great loss you suffered
at the time of President Harrison's S
visit to St. Johnsbury. We regret
that your modesty should have for
hidden your calling upon your friends
in your time of great need. Learn
ing, as we have, that you suffered
great loss and that you have been
compelled to deny yourself the neces-
stiles of life, viz, "Colonial'' and
Hoods" we hasten to repair your
loss by contributing the full sum
thereof, viz, fifteen cents. Let our
prompt response be a lesson to you
that under like conditions again you,
do not keep the matter secret and
snfs, in silence, but call upon your
x ~ will most gladly come
to your relief
Mr.. Packard was much overcome
by the clubs generous gift, and ac-
cepted it with thanks which could
hardly be expressed in words.

A CHANGE OF CHURCH NAME.

On Thursday of last week the Re
formed Presbyterian congregation of
St. Johnsbury was disorganized by
the resignation of one of its two
elders. Soon after the disorga MIA
tion a paper was signed by 43 per-
sons mostly members or adherents
of the former congregation, express
ing their desire to be reorganized as
a General Assembly Presbyterian
congregation, instead of Reformed
Presbyterian congregation as hereto
fore. The principal points of differ
ence between the two denominations
are as follows: The Reformed Presby-
terrain denomination, does not per-
NIT exchange of pulpits with minis
ters of other denominations partak-
ing of the Lords supper wirh mem
bers of other denomina tions, voting
for civil officers or any other act
involving or implying and acceptance
of the present constitution of our
national government; the use in
worship of any songs aside from the
psalms of the Bible; the use of in
struments in worship or member
ship in any secret order. The General
Assembly Presbyterian denomina-
ton does not exercise discipline as to
any of the above or others.

1T RAINED HARD.

1t was on Sunday last, and the
manner in which the rain descended
was very suggestive of another del
uge; but fortunately nothing more
serious resulted than the gullying of
the country roads and some of the
village streets. The streams rose
rapidly, and are still full bank.
From different parts of the state
come reports showing that the rain
and wind storm of that day was a
severe one. The rainfall was very
heavy, and the roads of the state
were very badly washed. The wind,
too, has done much damage in beat
ing crops into the ground. A Castle
ton dispatch says that 1.-THE wind
lasted fully half an hour and the
damage will amount to hundreds of
dollars. Trees and fences were blown
down, gardens ruined, and crops laid
fat"

ACCIDENT THE FOURTH.

Frank D. Thompson of Irasburg
met with a serious accident early
Monday morning while engaged in
firing an anvil. The powder ex-
ploded as it was being poured from
can into the anvil. Thompson's
face was filled with powder and his
eyes all swollen up. At first it was
feared that his eyesight was destroy
ed, but it is believed that his glasses
saved his eyes, aud that he will be
able to use them after a time. He is
son of Judge Thompson, who IS
presiding at our county court.
