"PATRIOTS' DAY."
New Legal Holiday i'm Mnssachusetts
Which Comes on April 10.


If Fast day must be abolished. some
thing IN the way Of recompense is offer
ed by making the 18th of April the
spring holiday in Massachusetts. Gov
ernor Greenhalge names it Patriots day
in his proclamation. and advises that 1t
be dedicated to solemn religious and
patriotic services which may adequate
ly express our deep sense of the trials
and tribulations of the patriots Of the
earlier and of the latter days, and also
especially our gratitude to Almighty
God. who crowned the heroic struggles
Of the founders and preservers of our
country with victory and peace" 1t was
on this day in 1775 that the "embattled'
farmers of Concord and Lexington,
aroused by Paul Revere with his mes
sage from Boston, made the first armed
stand of the colonists against Great
Britain.
The celebration of the new holiday will
be made notable in this part of the
state. Extensive preparations are under
way in Lexington and Concord, and
very appropriately in Boston. At Con-
cord the Massachusetts society of the
Sons of the Revolution will hold its sixth
annual reunion, and here in Boston the
Daughters of the Revolution will receive
at 62 Beacon-st. At Concord, too, there
will be a sham fight in the morning,
public meeting in the afternoon, with
speeches by Governor Greenhalge, Judge
Hoar and others, and a ball in the even
ing. The Concord military company will
represent the Minute men in the fight,
and a company of colored militiamen
will take the part of the British, who
are to be driven from the old North
Bridge to Merriam's Corner, on the Lex
ingtOn road, as in the real combat Of
1l9 years ago. a great-grandson of Maj.
Buttrick. who gave the command TO the

Perhaps the most interesting single in

to arouse interest in the restoration of
this famous chime. The bells have been
rehung, so that the beauty of their tone
will now become apparent, and members
of the Old Colony Guild of bellringers
have tested the perfection of the ar
rangement, and will ring the peals
secundum artem. 1t is an interesting
fact that the members of this guild are
Englishmen, and that the joy bells pro-
claiming the holiday in commemOration
of the rising Of the colonies against

A Distressing Case.

4 case Of destltution and suffering in
Logan county has been brought to notice
here and it may be necessary to get local
aid If the county commissioners or that
county cannot be induced to take up the
case. 1t seems that Eva Gump, a Rus
sian chore-woman who formerly lived IN
jamestown, moved to Logan county
with her husband, to point near Rich
ville---5O miles from this place-and
there began farming. While driving a
fractious team some time ago she lost
control OF it and, in the runaway which
followed, both Of her legs we're broken
above the knees. Her infant, which was
with her, was tossed out of the wagon by
its mother and It's life saved. .. ..s
This accident occurred 10 weeks age
and, if reports can be relied upon, the
woman is still confined to her bed. She
has received no medical care and the
broken limbs have healed as they may
and that is imperfectly and slowly, OF
not at all. It ls stated that recently she
further injured herself by bearing hel
weight upon one of the imperfectly kni
broken bones and, when it gave way, il
supposed to have split the leg bone
forcing the ends deeply into the hest
Little or nothing could be done toward
reducing the fracture and the woman
has been suffering from both the neglec
and An attack of neuralgia. The matte
will be brought to the notice of the com
missioners OF that county.
