7 Susutcions of a Wrecker's Hand-Tht
Second Time Engineer Brenn.n - ms,
Been Endangered:s ~ -. 5a3 ~.
Ansaccident that fortunately did moi
result in the loss of life occurred al
the lower end of the yard OF the sum
van branch of the B. 4 M. II. H., sat
urday evening, when the express tram
from Brattleboro dashed into long
train of freight cars on the sizing
near Westminster street. The cause OF
the wreck was misplaced SWITCH
whether occasioned by carelessness on
the part of an employee or by some
ones wilful attempt to wreck the traln'
is not at this time known. However,
it is suspected by many to be the work
of some evil disposed person because OF
the fact that but a short time pefore an
engine had passed over the sWltch on
the main line and there had been no
occasion to use the switch after, up 10
the time that the passenger tram run
ming at high rate OF speed ran ohlo
the siding. John Brennan, the en-,
gineer, applied the brakes and reversed
his engine and jumped. he escaped
without serious injury and many OF the
passengers were scarcely aware Oh tne
collision so little was the shock felt IN
the coaches The locomotive was bad
Nv damaged and one freight car was re-
duced to kindling wood The momen-
tum of the train must have been great
as the engine ploughed through a load
ed box car cutting it's way in as far as
the cab. The wrecked car took fire
and an alarm was turned in from box
% calling the fire department and also
an immense crowd of people to the
E.n
and as the main line was not obstruct-
ed, the passenger train was not delay
ed over one half hour No attempt to
clear away the debris was made Satur-
day. night but early Sunday morning
a force of men were at work and after
freeing the locomotive from the wreck !
and drawing it away, the ruins were set
on fire and thus all trace of the acct
dent removed. This is the second time |
within few years that this tram
while under Mr.. Brennan's charge
has been wrecked by the misplacing
of switch and in both instances there
was reason to believe it was done with
malicious intent. A few years ago this
train was run into siding in North
Walpole and collision resulted. Both
times there was no loss of life but the
chances of fatality were so great that
Mr.. Brennan would be justified in
thinking that some one was out for his
scalp. Every effort should be put forth
to determine just where the response
bllity lies.
Superintendent Ray and Sampson of
the Boston and Maine road have been
at Bellows Falls investigating Satur'
days wreck They think it is the
work of some boys.

The Brattleboro Reformer issued a
magnificent souvenir number last
week, devoted to Brattleboro and its
business interests. There was page af-
ter page of excellent descriptive matter,
illustrated with half tones and line
drawings, all showing Brattleboro to
be lively business town and an ideal
place for home. 1t was a master
stroke of enterprise, rejecting credit
not alone on the town. but upon the
paper itself, one of the best country
newspapers in New England.

5000 Is WHAT HE PAID
MARLBORO Farmer Gave His Hired Man
Cider TO Take Out into the Field-and
Gets this Taste of s'PrOhibitiOn."

Nathaniel Miller. an old farmer Of
Wardsboro, we'll TODD, and an honest
and straight man In his dealing, but
one who has the old-time farmer s
view about cider while regularly vot-
of crimes to "sell, furnish or give
away even less Intoxicating beverag-
es, has taken good stiff dose of PRO
hibition" this week. He was arrest
ed Wednesday morning on states at
torney's complaint for furnishing"
and keeping" cider The complaint
originated in feeling among neigh
bors that hired man of his, who has
of late years been spelling himself with
drink, was being provided with too
much cider. gossip going so far as to
assert. though it did not appear in ev
idence, that Miller paid him in cider.
But whatever the facts may be in this
case, the dose that Miller got is just
what any farmer is liable to get, who
furnishes his help with cider or any
thing else that may intoxicate for hay
ing. In fact after few more OF our
Vermont legislatures have been dealing
with the subject under such virtuous
guidance as that of Gov. Woodbury., it
may perhaps be made House of Ger
rection offense to mix up ginger and
water for the bayfield,.
But as the farmers in their anxiety
to always vote the straight party tick
ct, regardless of every other considera-
ton, are the ones that really make the
law, they have no one else to thank.
The trial was held before Justice S.
S. Perry at West Wardsburo. Miller
plead not guilty to the charge of ''furn-
ishing'. The only witness was bis
hired man, I. B. Putnam, who, sup
posing that it was a matter that didn't
come under the law, freely told all about
it. stating far more than the states attor-
ney or the prosecutors wanted, as their
aim was only to discipline Miller a
little. Putnam said that at least II
times when he had been work for
Miller, the latter had given him jug
full of cider to take into the field.
This left nothing to do but fine him
guilty of IL offenses. for which the
lowest fine was $50 and costs, amount
ing TO s73 40.
Miller then plead guilty to keeping
cider and was find s. and COSTS
TO sl7.45
