The Eclipse.

Auc IACblpSC.
The eclipse of the moon which was ad-
vertised to appear in West Randolph on
Sunday evening was, unlike many mum
dane shows, visible on time, much to the
credit of the astronomical advance agent
who did the advertising.
There were no reserved seats and ex-
tremely popular prices prevailed. In fact,
it was free show, and as it began but
little later than shows in general, the pop
ulace was there with few exceptions. 1t
was novelty to some of the younger peo-
pie, and one boy remarked that it was the
first .sclip Of the moon" that he had ever
seen.
1t was bright pleasant evening, and
with a beauty which gave no hint of an
eclipse. People began to strain their eyes
about eight O'Clock and brought into re-
QUESTION their far-seeing spectacles and
opera glasses; but there was nothing to
see during the first act except the jolly
face of the man in the moon, who seemed
to be laughing at his staring observers.
About nine o'clock, there was something
to be seen. The circumference OF the
moon apparently grew smaller, and dis
tinct shadow began to creep up the chin
of the man who rad been jeering at the
curiosity of mortals. He commenced to
look solemn. The shadow steadily pro-
crossed; it reached and covered his jagged
mouth; it came up to his nose it hid that
classic feature; it spread over his eyes like
a veil; it mounted to his forehead, and his
features were invisible to the gaze of the
thousands OF eyes which were turned in
his direction.
A dull copper colored glow was notice
able; then the shadow of our terrestrial
ball began to pass away, and the sister Of
Phoebus Apollo was again bright enough
to deserve her name of Phoebe.

Rapid Transits.

Rapid Transits.
Henry Chambers horse escaped from
him on Weston street Saturday morning
and with the cutter attached, ran up to
the Main street corner and down to the
track, where it was captured before any,
thing was damaged.
The same morning, Mrs. Chamberlain
OF the Center was driving down to this
village and at the foot of the Slack hill
met team going in the opposite direc-
ton. As she endeavored to turn out, the
horse sprang little and the sleigh, run
ming against hard bank of snow, tipped
over. Mrs. Cham berlain, who was thrown
out, landed in the muddy road, uninjured
except for few bruises.
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Rising were rid
ing down Railroad street one evening last
week, when their horse, frightened by
seeing some one come suddenly from be-
hind the engine house, SHE'D, overturning
the sleigh and splitting its occupants and
contents in heterogeneous collection on
the sidewalk. Mr.. Rising chung to the
reins and was dragged quite little way.
The horse finally slipped and fell, and,
on regaining its feet, freed itself from
the sleigh and ran for two miles up the
Thayer brook road. Not caring, possibly,
to penetrate farther in that direction, the
runaway turned around and travelled lei
surely hOmeWard.
But the animal had acquired taste for
freedom from its excursion, and Sunday
morning made bold but rather unsuc-
cessful strike for liberty.
Nothing daunted by its failure, the
horse started in Monday morning to run
the Rising milk team according to its own
discretion. 1t delivered nearly all OF the
milk hut left the cans IN the most unex-
pected places. Coming in contact with
the lamp post near the Cong'I church, it
straightway demolished that and very
shortly thereafter was led back into cap
tivity.
