HIS FIRST COFFEE.
The gorprIsinE Experiences OF PlOnosS
Lilo In tho Eastern States. l..

The surprIsinE Experiences OF PlODoo1
Life In tho Eastern States. t..
Rev. Joseph Doddridge, in his 'Notes
on the Settlement and Indian Wars Of
the Westcrn Parts of Virginia and
Pennsylvania" gives q detailed and
realistic account Of the pioneer life OF
that region. He was born in 1869. His
mother died six or seven years after
ward, and his father sent him to Mary
land to scnool. On his way thithcr he
saw some wonderful things and had
some surprising experiences, which he
thus describes: .
At Col. Browns in the mountains ]
for the first time saw tame geese, and
for bantering pet gander 1 got Sc
we're biting by his bill and beating by
his wings. / wondered very much that
birds so large and strong should be SO
much tanner than the wild turkeys At
this place, however, NIL was right OK
ccpt the large birds which they called
geese. The cabin and its furniture
were such as had been accustomed to
sec in the bacllwoods, as my country
was then called.
At Bedford everything was changed.
The tavern at VIII. CHI my uncle put up
was a stone house, and was plastered
inside, both rs to the walls and the
ceiling. / was struck with nstonish-
ment. / had no idea that there was

tons are that there will be two sets of
committeeman run at the district school

Neary and Michael Sheridan are already
announced as candidates on one ticket,
while James Penrose and f. F. Schaffer
have the call on the other. AS far as prin-
cipal of school is concerned there will be
no change, no matter which is elected.
There are many here who think that the

ran, Coen. Whittemore and Ward, to
recommend ticket will not agree, or even
if they did, wonld not prevent the running
of another ticket.
A number of X. of P. and also dele
cation of Kings Daughters will visit Water
bury this evening. the first to attend a
fair the other to hear Mrs Bottome at one
of the churches.
Quite an audience attended the praise
service at the Congregational church last
evening. The anthem and chorus was
nicely rendered and also a solo, 'My Re-
deemer and My Lord, by Miss Smith of
Waterbury. Miss Wigmore sang the solo,
Glove Appear" from the Redemption,
in good voice. until she attempted to sing
notes out of her reach, as was also the case
of the solo by Mr. Merriman.
The old school buildings are advertised
for sale at auction tomorrow under condi-
tons to be named at time Of sale.
The remains Of Frank Judd, man well
known at the north end of the town, were
