KILLED Al OxeoW BRIDGE.

Henry Staples of st. Albans, about 80
years of age, was instantly killed at the
OXbow bridge, three miles south of tins
village. few minutes after noon Tues
day. He leaves widow and ole child.
Staples was the fireman of "A freight
train of 40 cars bound north. After the
train passed Salisbury and while it was
on the grade this way the train broke in
two. The brakemen were unable to con-
troll the rear section and the engineer
was fearful that it might catch up with
the section of the train attached to the
engine. He accordingly got up speed
enough to keep out of the way OF the
loose cars. Staples was hanging out of
the cab watching the rear section when
the accident occurred, and was struck in
the side of the head by the end of the
bridge. The whole side of his face was
smashed in and death must have been in
Simultaneous. The body fell into the
bridge outside the track and through the
ties up to the shoulders. The engineer
kept on, picking up the loose cars and
bringing the tram into the station here,
so that the track should be clear for
other trains. The train hands went back
for the body on the engine. 1t was brought
to Brewster & Co.'S undertaking rooms,
prepared for shipment and sent to St.
Adams on the mail train that afternoon.

CLOSE OF THE COUNTY COURT.

The December term of court for Addil
son county came to an end at s 80 o'clock
last Friday morning. At that hour AS
sistant Judges Holland and Weeks came
in and States Attorney Fish said that he
had nothing further to present to the
attention of the court. Judge Weeks then
directed Sheriff Merritt to declare court
adjourned without day. which was there
upon done.
Court was in session in all 26 working
days or parts of days. A considerable
amount of time was wasted during the
term in waiting for witnesses or parties
20 suits, and things seemed to drag along
very slowly all through the term. Only
one civil case aud four criminal cases
were tried by jury. and only one petition
for divorce was heard. The criminal
docket was pretty well cleaned up by
trials and pleas of guilty. but two liquor
cases stand over to the June term. The
sum of S525, with the costs of prosecu-
tiOn. was collected from four respond
ents in liquor cases who entered pleas of
guilty.

HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS.

The Sandwich islands and our relations
with them continue to divide public at
tention with the tariff bill. The admin
istration appears to have found the Ha-
waiian question beyond its power, as is
indicated by the following Washington
dispatch printed in yesterdays papers;
Secretary Gresham announced today
that everything received from Minister
Willis will be sent to Congress by the
president as soon as received, and also
that all Instructions sent TO Willis will
be transmitted in like manner and that
the whole question will thus be turned
over to the determination of Congress.
The news from Honolulu is rather
mixed, but it is certain that United States
Minister Willis invited the provisional
government to go out of business and let
the depOsed queen back into power, and
that President Dole and his associates in
the provisional government respectfully
declined to do any such thing. 1t is re-
ported, but the report lacks confirma-
ton, that the provisional government
virtually asked Minister Willis to leave
the country. Important news from the
Hawaiian capital is looked for soon.
