A local reporter was one day. not so
long ago, informed semi-officially, that
three men in a certain city department
were to be discharged for malfeasance in
office. The information was apparently
authentic and he wrote the story, but
used no names in its narration. 1t was
published Three men were discharged
the following week, and then the news of
their discharge was published, with the
names, but without charges against them.
The men sued for the TWO stories and re-
covered yerdicts.
One curious case was tried some years
ago, and it resulted from the statement
published that q man who had been con-
cerned in duel had sat up the night pre-
yious practicing with his revolver. There
was no question at all about the TACT of

BROTHERS REUNION.
The Knox Brothers Ire All Together, and Enjoying Therr First Reunion
 Since 1861.

seldom in the history of any fam fly is il the case that brothers re- union ever takes place When boys leave home and go out into the world to stem the current of life on their own responsibility, it is not often that they ever meet again. I Their lives continue 10 drift apart, their interests arc varied. some live l in one country. some in another, and by the time they arrive at manhood their environments are such that it is entirely impossible for them to lay aside the active duties of life long enough to hold social communion one with the other.
 Not one family in a thousand ever witnesses just such reunion as the Knox brothers are now enjoying in this city. There are six in number and they are all most excellent spec imens of manhOod.s Their ather, Dr. X. Knox, was born in lS07 and died in 1864, being 47 years of age Their mother was born in 1911 and died at the ripe age ofT0 years. All the boys were born in Tennessee, except $. Y. T. Knox, who was born in Panola county, Mississippi. the present home of the visiting brothers.
 Their names and ages are as fol- lows: Captain ] L., 61; AIr " H. 5S; Col. k. NJ, 56 Dr. N. C., 54; Mir IJ P, 5l; Mir <. \. 1'., 42 They are all married Capt ] l.. has thirteen children, ten boys and three girls, all living. He is the father of Pat and Ahsey Knox of this city, and Douglas Knox, druggist in Little Rock
 Alr N F. is the father Of ten child red. three boys and seven girls, one married daughter being dead. Col, R. NJ. has eight children, four boys and four girls, all living. Dr. N c. has eight children. four boys and four girls. Alr. ] P. has two boys and Mr. <. Y. T. has two boys. In all there are 43 children. Dr. Knox lost his right nrm at the battle of Gettys- barg July , 1868 Mr " H. Knox was shot in the leg at the battle of Dallas, Ga., May 2S lS64 under Gen- eral Jollnson's command. All the other brothers went through the war from beginning to end but re- ceived no wounds. Strange, but true, no two of the Knox brothers were eyer in the same regiment
 One peculiarity, though not q strange one, is they are lifelong Dem- iocrats and not q single one of them ever scratched q ticket. As Gonfed- crate soldiers they were patriots

MRS. S. E. HUDSON and niece, Mrs.
Emma Poro, are visiting with G. L. Hud-
son.
E. W. GIBSON, of Londonderry, who
graduated from Norwich University, last
June, has been elected principal of the
Chester High School. Mr.. Gibson is
quite well known in this village, where
he is an occasional visitor.
THE obsequies of the late Mrs. DIR.
Manser, were held in st. Peters church,
Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The
bearers were: DR.. John T. Shurtleff and
II. o. Harwood, wardens of the church,
of which the husband of the deceased
was for more than twelve years rector,
Prof. +. N. Squire and Thos. A Hutch
ms. The remains were laid at rest be-
side her husband, in the lot at the Centre
cemetery. There was good congrega-
ton present in church, and among them,
the Rev. Edward ConOver, who, in a
note to the editor, says: ''Dr. Manser
came into town about the same time as
myself but about three months later than
l. He with his family and myself board
ed together while in the old Franklin
House and consequently were very we'll
acquainted. have kept up my acquaint-
ance with Mrs. Manser since l returned
to Bennington, occasionally calling upon
her, and these calls she always seemed to
enjoy especially, as they were partly of a
religious character. 1t gave me there
fore great, though sad, qualification to
be present at the funeral yesterday, for
which made special effort. 1t impressed
me very much that, as we had been con-
nected in the ministry in those early
days, still lived to pay the last acts
of christian sympathy to the wife of Dr.
Manser and was the only minister in the
place who knew them both"
THE Rev. L, G. Partridge is visiting
his brothers family in this village. AS
our readers know, he is settled in Jellico,
Tenn, and his absence of nine years
may be realized by some if we tell that
one of his boys, Ernest, is supplying the
pulpit while his father is absent North.
Mr.. Partridge was accompanied to North
ern New York by his daughters, Cora
and Annie, but he came on here alone
leaving them in st. Lawrence county.
His eldest daughter, Mary, is a mission
airy in China, in the interior. A letter
dated June End, has just reached her
father here, more than Two months on
the way. His son, Lewis, jr., is still at
school in Oberlin, Ohio, and is now TAX
ing course at the summer school. Like
many others, Mr.. Partridge remarks up
on the growth of Bennington. He
is astonished to see so many
improvements. He has many friends in
town who will be pleased to see him,
and his family, also, would be welcome.
In this connection it may be of interest
to know that our State department has
received numerous communications from
missionary societies and religious bodies
asking that full protection be given mis-
sionaries in the Orient. To all of these,
replies have been sent stating that full
instructions with regard to the protec-
ton of missionaries have been sent to
our representatives in Asia, and that no
fear need be felt that any harm will
come to any of them. In case of re-
ligious outbreak, the missionaries will
be sent on board the warships of the
United States.

rhe Sixteenth OF AUGUST.

The 10th annual picnic of the F. NJ. T.
A. B. will be held in Hunts upper grove
next week Thursday, the anniversary of
Remington Battle. Thus far it is the
only gathering announced for that day
and should be we'll attended. In former
DAYS, when times were good, the profits
from these picnics would add FROM $500
to 5000 to the treasury. 1t is to be
hoped that they may be as much this
wear, as the society has had to draw on
its treasury considerably the past season.
The committees of arrangements have
endeavored to furnish good programme
and it would seem that they have sue
ceeded. Among the attractions will be
a four round glove contest between Lar
nv Burns of Cohoes, N. Y, and Jack
Watts of Troy, N. Y, for purse Of Sl0O
Burns is champion feather weight of the
State of New York, and is well spoken
of in the various papers throughout the
country. He has had several good bouts
and has defeated such men as Johnny
Griffen of New York, aud Billy Plimmer
in stubbornly contested matches Watts
is also highly spoken of as sparrer and
has defeated several men. Those who
witness the match will see some skill
with the gloves.
There will also be four round spar
ring match between Johnny Vaughn OF
