Accident to Brother Crane.

Monday morning at half past five
O'Clock, George Raymond, Loren Pin
ney and L. c. Crane started on their
wheels for Woodstock. After taking
breakfast at Tyson, while riding down
the hill the other side of Plymouth
Notch, Mr.. Cranes wheel became un-
manageable, owing to a loosened ham
dle-bar, and he was thrown some eight
cen feet from a bridge into two or three
feet of water, striking upon his head,
while his wheel caught in the bushes.
Raymond struck the hind wheel of his
machine and fell in the middle Of the
road, but was unipjured. as was his
bicycle, while Pinney, striking Ray
mond's wheel, fell about twenty feet off
the lower side of the bridge, breaking
his wheel but not hurting him in the
least. Mr.. Raymond at once jumped
of the bridge to Mr.. Cranes assistance,
followed by Pinney, as soon as posi-
BILE. With the help of the stage driver
they got HIM to Horace Pinney's house
where he is now staying. Drs. Bry-
ant of Ludlow and Boyden of Bridge
water were Immediately summoned and
made the patient as comfortable as pos
sible. Mrs. Crane soon followed, and
is still caring for him. His brother
from Hyde Park was telegraphed for
and a consultation of physicians on
Thursday afternoon found him as COM
Portable as could well be expected, but
regard the case as critical. Mr.. Cranes
wheel is not much damaged, and on
the whole it was very fortunate that the
accident was not much worse under the
circumstances. The bridge where it
occurred is about two miles beyond the
Notch postoflice. Ludlow Tribune.

says this son OF Ormond is the most
promising colt Of the same age that
he ever saw, which means a good
deal.

The case of Samuel Putnam VS..
Chas. ii. Waterhouse was put on trial
Thursday and closed Tuesday forenoon.
This is an action for SANDER. The
defendant is manager of Hillside cream
cry at Cornish, n. H., and plaintiff is
a patron. Some patrons got in the
habit, II appears, of taking more waste
milk than their proper proportion and
others tailed TO get what they were en-
titled to, and complaints were made to
he manager, who became satisfied that
plaintiff was, innocently or otherwise,
taking too much milk and told him so.
Hot words ensued and plaintiff now
claims that defendant called plaintiff
thief. Defendant denies using the term
and while the evidence is conflicting as
TO the use of that term. all evidence
eoncurs that the taking Of too much
milk was the only thing that the vio-
lent language had reference to; and all
who heard the quarrel understood
that whatever terms were used had ref
erence TO the milk matter. Verdict for
plaintiff, S25 and costs. Davis 4 Clark |

THE stories of the suffering OF Lon
don's poor are almost beyond belief.
Individual cases of suffering are al
ways to be found in large cities. but
the existence OF such large classes of
destitute and starving is unknown
outside of the countries ruled by the
gaunt spectre of famine. The appar-
ent lack of interest shown by the
municipality and by people of means
argues that there is little benevolence
to be found in the British metropolis.

conspicuous among whom is the
widow OF the late Chief Justice
Waite, large sum of money has been
raised for the purpose of building a
fitting monument at Fredericksbur
over the remains of the mother OF
George Washington. For years the
tomb has been neglected by the peo-
pie of Fredericksburg and vandals
have been suffered to commit depre-
dations about it. and now that the
ladies of the country have taken up
the matter the negligent people OF
that burg have been seized with ex-
.raordinary interest and assume to
boss the job. They. through their
mayor, insist that everything done tc
oeautify the neglected spot shall be
done under their direction.

PORK is dearer now than it has
been in ten years, or since Bismarck
began to make war on the American
hog. This is doubtless in part due
to the opening of European markets
to our pork. With better prices for
pork beans have also advanced. and
the traditional New England dish Of
pork and beans has now to be paid
for by those who would enjoy it.
