WRESTLING WITH THE ENGINE.

The crowd which has gathered every
Sunday for the past month at the rail-
road bridge in the south end of the viii
lage to watch the operations of the rail-
road men engaged in clearing away the
wreck of the bridge and the cars that
went down with 1t were afforded eXcep-
tiOnally good entertainment last Sunday,
when an attempt was made to fish out
the 65-ton mogul that fell with
the first trestle.
The apparatus brought down to assist
in the Job included a full-hedged sub
marine diver, whose services were re-
quired in adjusting the chains about the
monster. The hauling was done bv one
of the Central's new eight-wheeled mo-
guls.
The net result of the days efforts was
to roll the engine over once or twice.
1t now lies on its left side near the
northern bank of the stream. The wa
ter is foot deep or more over 1t. The
principal difficulty seemed to be that
none of the tackle was strong enough to
hold the tremendous strain put upon it..
Chains, hooks and pretty much every
thing else gave out. 1t is understood
THAT heavier tackle is being prepared this
week at the railroad shops and that a
second attempt to rescue the mogul will
be made next Sunday. Fully 2000 peo-
pie are said to have watched the per-
formance last Sunday. but that is prob
ably an exaggeration. There were a
good many of them, however.

A SOLID INSTITUTION,

BY reference to the local columns it
will be seen that the Burlington Savings
bank has declared its usual semi-annual
dividend at the rate of 44 per cent per
annum, payable July /. The bank is
fortunate in being so strong and in en-
joying the confidence of the community
to such an extent that it has not been
disturbed by the financial troubles that
exist in other parts of the country. We
are informed by its officers that the
bank has never had any connection what
ever with any of the investment companies
or banks that have recently failed, and
that it has lost no money by poor in
vestments for number of years. Bur-
lington Free Press.

The Orwell FAILURES.

The schedules of debts and assets of
Charles f. Bush of Orwell, the third
member of the failed firm of Hammond.
Bush & Co., were filed in the insolvency
court here on Monday. They show debts
TO the amount of about S3l 900, and as
sets to the amount of about S65,000 OF
the assets, $27 900 has been pledged as
collateral.
These schedules complete the lot for
the firm and for each of its three men,
bers. As was stated last week, the COM
pany debts are S450,000 and its assets
S542, 900. 1t was also stated that the
debts of Mr.. VIM. b. Wright were about
$4,000 and of Mr.. T. NJ. Chapman about
100000. Mr.. Wright's assets were Civ
en- as nomlnally S96,000 and of Mr.. Chap
man as about $l9S,000. Summing up the
assets and liabilities, 1t appears that the
sum total of the assets of the company
and of its three members is S90l 900.
while the liabilities figure up to $6ll 900.
The creditors will meet at the insolvency
court here on Thursday of next week to
choose an assignee or assignees to settle
up the estate.
The creditors of the firm residing in
Ticonderoga and vicinity held a meeting
some days since and appointed sub-com-
mittee, who will report at an adjourned
meeting in TiconderOga tonight what is
best TO be done.

There is tremendous tempest in Pres
byterian circles over the suspension
from the ministry, by the general as
sembly at Washington, recently, of DR..
Briggs, the New York professor. He is
defended, among others, by DIR. Lyman
Abbott of Brooklyn, who paid this
tribute to him in his sermon last Sun
day:
In your name and in the name of all
that believe in the living God, dwelling
in the hearts of his children today, thank
this prophet, successor TO the prophets of
older times, that in these two years of
cruel trial he has never receded from his
one position, never used words in
double sense. never retracted
his one assertion, but has stood
firmly and faithfully against per-
suasion on the one hand and attack on the
other for his fundamental principle-that
God is In the heart of the individual and
in the heart of his church as revealed in
the pages of the Bible.

CURRENT COMMENT.

There is a deal of writing IN the news
papers about how young men get through
college-as walters, teachers, writer's,
singers, but no one says anything about
that great class which gets through by
the skin of its teeth Boston Journal.
Those in charge of the art exhibit at
Chicago have begun their asinIne ca
reer of covering those paintings which
they are pleased to consider "imnoral'
with pink gauze, which naturally has
the effect of attracting immense crowds
to them. 1t is great advertisement for
the pictures, but this does not explain
why rank, double-Dreasted idiots should
invariably be selected to superintend
such matters.-[ [Hardwlck Gazette

The calamity at Washington on Fri
day was national disgrace. Because
of the shortsightedness of legislators
or officials, half thousand clerks Of the
pension Office were permitted to work
in the old Ford theatre, a condemned
building, till it fell down upon them,
killing more than twenty persons and
injuring over fifty others. The insecur-
ity of the building was we'll known, and
yet an excavation beneath its founda-
tions, for some purpose or other, was
permitted. That seems to have been the
immediate cause of its downfall. None
of the Vermonters employed in the pen
sion department appears upon the list of
killed and injured.
