DIR. Gould started for Nashville
last evening to see patient, but his
team shed over bank near Currie's
and overturned the buggy. Fortunate
ly the horses stopped and beyond some
bruises the doctor was uninjured.
The claim of Polly Book against
the Book clothing store was paid out

Frank Gordon is improving very
rapidly and if no backset occurs will
soon be able to attend to business. Be-
ing a strong, healthy man the wound
heals quickly. He had calculated to
start today for his home in Liberty,
Mo-, but it is probable that it will be
postponed for day or two. He will
be accompanied by DR.. Gould.
up to this time the weather of this
winter has been almost unprecedented.
The pleasant sunshine of December
was only interrupted by series of
showers just before Christmas, after
which the autumn weather was resumed
and continues until the present time.
The sunny southern cline has so far
not only been pleasant surprise but a
godsend to many poor people who
would probably suffer from an inciem-
ent season.
The proposition submitted by the
city council regarding the water works
was rejected by MIR. Best this week.
Some of the council are aQitating the
idea of putting in big windmill and
tank north Of town, large enough to
supply water for the mains. It's hard
ly probably that such action will be
taken, however, as it would involve an
expense of about 81 600. As Mr.. Best
will not run the works any longer 1t is
probable that the water will soon be
cut of unless the mill project goes
through.

The teachers OF Parsonsfield Institute
are meeting the first Saturday in leach
month. They have extended general
invitation to all teachers.to come and
discuss the method of teaching with
them.

After ex-Minister Thomas delivered his
lecture at Jamestown. N. Y, on Saturday
evening he was given a banquet By the
Swedish-Ame1ican business men of the
town. About seventy sat down to the
tables, The Fenton Guards orchestra fur
nished music. The mayor presided and ex-
tended cordial welcome to Mr.. Thomas. In
reply Mr.. Thomas spoke at length. detail
ng his first visit to jamestown in 1888. He
told how, when sent to Sweden as a consul
by Lincoln, the Swedes won his heart by
their kindness "Itwas my first love and
I've never gotten over it, Fromsthe views
he had had Friday of Jamestown he would
Judge it a city of so 600 population. What
prouder designation than City of H ONES
ould you wish?' His visit to the Swedish
rphanage was spoken of and the institu-
ton commended. ''Why are you ,Swedes
here?' he asked. "My wife. Swede. makes
answer, Because my son in America can
aspire to a future, fuHer and broader than
in any other land on earth.' Everyone here
has better chance to develop himself to
be somebody, to have home and happiness.
In this lies the distinctive advantage of
America. We may love other countries also,
but America gives every man the best
chance to live and breathe and have his be-
ing and to lead noble and fully developed
lives"
