that gang of young negro bloods who not
long ago INDUCED their superabundant

1t has been suggested through these

only. Also that they have been OBJ
tanning money under false pretences,
which is false. We give with each
dozen cabinets nice life size bromide

chromos in place of twelve photo

any gold or silver medals but work
on our own merits and show speci-
mems of our own make only.

Company with forty people will hold

novel performance seen here in d long

features is cotton plantation in

picking cotton, also the famous cake
walk which is so popular in New
York city. We quote below an ex-
tract from the n. Y. Herald:
The colored attraction, Slavery
Days." which opened at Peoples
Theatre, Brooklyn, last evening, is the
most enjoyable performance that has
been given at the above theatre this
season and comprises artists of ability.
The singing and dancing of this company
are remarkable and deserved all the sue
cess it achieved last evening.

A NE W RAILROAD.

A charter has been secured for the
Hard and Woodbury. railroad
and it is proposed to form a stock
company of $4,000 capital to build
a line from Hardwick to the granite
quarries in Woodbury., distance Of
about six miles. A strip of one mile
and one-half has already been built
from Hard wick towards these
quarries by the Boston & Maine rail-
road, which they will probably lease
to the new company although they
will not build more themselves, so
the new railroad wonld only be AZ
miles long. The incorporators of the
railroad are L. D. Hazen, H. N.
Turner, E. H. Blossom, T. c. Fetch
er, George w. Cree, all Of this town,
Congressman Powers and George
NJ. Powers and Gov. Hendee of Nor
risville, c. A. Waston of Woodbury.
and Alfred Watson of Hartford A
provision of the charter allows the
company to bond both the towns of
Hardwick and Woodbury., though
it is believed that enough stock can
be raised by private subscription
without bonding the towns. 1t is
proposed to build the railroad next
spring if the necessary funds can be
raised. With this railroad com
pleted there is so reason why Hard
wick should not become a second
Barre and the road will do much to
build up both Of these towns. The
people ought to subscribe generous
ly to this enterprise and the GALE
DOMAIN hopes to see it completed in
1895.
