An occasional correspondent writes |: "We see no reason why lady should not receive the same pay for shovsling snow when she does the same work upon the roads that man does, as has been the case in Holland, where one followed the work steadily for 6t hours. It seems that it is high time for the roads to be opened. ?

 Everybody thought and talked about the severe snow storm of last week, and which was only exceeded by the blizzard of '88. Everything in the line of business was stopped until the snow storm ceased, when everybody started for the post office, only to find that no mails had been re- cefved for several days. The road be- tween Holland and Rockville was prob ably in the worst condition of the main roads, and it required deal of hard work to open the way. Some were snow bound and were unable to return to their places of business.

ASHFORD.

Hartford cor. Springfield Republican: Many of the admirers of Col Thomas Knowlton of Ashford, one of the forgot ten heroes of the Revolution, are petition ing for statue of him 10 be erected on the capitol grounds. The movement is headed by P. H. Woodward, secretary of the Hartford board of trade, man of many accomplishments in historical re- search, whose father, the late Dr. Ashbel Woodward of Franklin, had prepared a monograph of the services of the hero. Col Knowlton was at the battle of Bunk CT Hill as a captain, and behind the breast, work of fence and brush in his shirt sleves, urged his men to hold their posi- tion and to keep steady. He was after wards promoted, first to major and then to colonel, and it was he who ordered Nathan Hale to enter the camp of the enemy on Long Island on the very day before he himself was mortally wounded in 8 sortie on Manhattan island. His courage was undoubted and he was man of many rare gifts besides. Had he lived he nndoubtly would have. taken high rank in the Revolutionary army as he was a favorite with Washington and other officers at the head of the army. No public memorial of Knowlton has been erected in the state, and the movement will be popular one if the commission for the statue is given to competent artist.

them. His father swore an alibi for
the boy, saying he had been at home
all that evening, but the fathers tes-
timony here was altogether different
from what it was at the preliminary
trial. before the justice of the peace.
1t is natural for father to find ex-

father was swearing to a falsehood to
save him from punishment, thus com
hitting a worse crime than the boy
did, and deserving more punishment
than the boy. The jury found the boy
guilty and Judge Burnett fined him SIS.
