Yes, we had snow last week. Thomp-
son, the Brattleboro stage driver, went out
from us Tuesday into the beautiful snow
and returned Friday afternoon. The stage
to Nottingham station went over two or
three times, but there was little consola-
ton as the narrow guage wasn't in it.
The stage for Charlemont went out TO
snow drifts and returned, but failed to
reach South Nottingham any day of the
week. The Shelburne Falls stage succeeded
better, but it took two days to get to Col
rain and back sometimes. We have heard
considerable grumbling because we could
not have one of our old-fashioned winters.
We think these grumblers ought to be sat
isied now, with snow four feet deep on the
average.

CHICAGO, June 2l.-A report that 81, 500

banks for shipment by steamers sailing
from England tomorrow converted very
weak grain market into strong one, and
wheat and corn both recovered from breaks
they made in the first hour. The early de-
cline in wheat was continuation OF the
weakness which existed yesterday, helped
along by the weaker and lower cable ad-
vices and the report on the French crop in
an English journal, which said the dam
age 10 the French crops had been overesti-
mated. There was a good demand, how
ever. at the decline and sharp rally in
prices followed. Inquiry ct the banks
brought the information that all the prin-
cipal institutions would continue to carry
the wheat they had already advanced.

strong. and closed steady at near the high

STRANGE CASE
An Army Omcsr in Prison for Life Draws
Pay.

Washington star.
Ambassador Bsysrd has been instruct
ed to make inquiries In regard to the
condition of Capt. w. ID. Minor, u. ).
A., retired, who is serving a life SEN
tence In an English prison for murder
Every few years an inquiry Of this kind
is made through the regular diplomatic
channels in order that the War Depart
ment may pay Capt. Minors salary TO
his legal cOnservatOr. This is the only
case on record Of q murderer borne on
the rolls Of the army and drawing the
paw OF his grade.
Quarterly certificates are filed oy the
cOnservatOr bearing the signature or
the superintendent Of the English
prison. or rather criminal lunatic asy-
lum, TO the effect that Capt. Minor is
still alive.
On the strength OF these the conser-
vator, who is Mr.. Richard E. Rice, OF
New Haven, Conn, receives from the
army paymaster in New York check
for $500 as salary due Capt Minor.
There has been no official report as TO
his condition for several years.
The last report from the superinten-
dent Of the BrOadmOre lunatlc asylum
tells the story Of his crime and cOuine-
ment: she was confined in this asy-
lum April l., 1872. His offense con-
sisted OF shooting with a revolver and
killing man 10 the Bslvedore road,
Lambeth.
For several years after his conHne-
meDt the relatives OF Capt. Minor made
strenuous efforts through the State
Department 10 secure his release. The
English authorities, however, would
not bulge from their hrm stand
against allowing any one 10 come out
of the criminal asylum alive. AS far
as known no American has ever been
permitted to see the murderer since
his confinement.
Capt. Minor is now fity-Seven years
OF age. lie was born on the Island OF
Ceylon aud appointed an assistant
surgeon from New York in 1866. He
was retired in 1870 on account OF or
ganic lesion OF the Grain, consequent
upon sunstroke which he suffered in
Florida in line of duty.
