AS was to have been expected,
the British press declares that the
declaration of the United States,
that they will intervene to pre-.
vent British territorial aggression
upon Venezuela, will be re.
sisted at all hazards. If such is
the sentiment of the English PEG.
and government, war, the direst of
all public calamities, must result
between the ouly two English
speaking countries Of the world.
But we are firmly persuaded that
sufficient concessions, compatible
with the dignity and honor of both
countries, will be made, which will
have the effect of ayerting war be.

object to the announced intention
of Don. Cameron. of Pennsylvania,
to. retire from the United States
Senatea at the expiration Of his
present term. Don and his father
Simon before him, have had "a

long a time, that the memory OF
the Oldest inhabitant '9runneth not

wright that he should retire IN
favor OF some one else, who has
not had d monopoly of the politi

compelled to believe, however, that
his purpose to vacate his seat III
the Senate is inspired rather by
fear of the hostility Of Matt Quay
to his re election, thanitis to sln-
cere desire to retire to private life.

Sunday evening an alarm of fire was
given, calling our fire department to the
old Monroe homestead across the river in
North Walpole. The house is now owned
by Cornelius Crowley and occupied by him
and Mr.. Lyons. The fire had originated
in some unexplained manner in the barn
among some rubbish. The local hand en-
CINE had been working upon it, but the fire
was gaining rapidly and so assistance was
asked of our department. Our steamer
was put in position and quickly subdued
the flames without injury to surrounding
houses, which was feared for a time The
barn and carriage house were entirely des-
troyed, as well as the L of the house, and
considerable damage was done to the main
building The loss TO the house was about
Sl1O0, and was insured through the agency
of George +. Ball, the settlement being
made on Tuesday. Neither of the occu-
pants had insurance upon household eff
fects, which were seriously injured by the
fire and removal.
The road bicycle race which was ar
ranged by Eaton 81 Norwood came off as

square and Westminster street to Saxtons
River and return, 10t miles. There were
- entries and II started. The first prize,
silver tea service, was won by NJ. Greene;
time, 1898. Second prize, a silver cake
basket, won by A. Sheppard; time, $780,
Third prize, nickel-plated revolver, won
by F. A. Thwing; time, 3S:44. Fourth
prize, a sweater, won by Edwin Bush;
time, 40:15. The time prize, a nickel
plated search light, was won by A. Shep-
ard of Alstead. About two minutes better
time would have been made by each of the
contestants if it had not rained, making
the road slippery in some places. Two of
the number were thrown from their wheels
before they returned.

The contest is brought by Mrs. Nina K.
Hayes, as the next friend of Harold Hayes,
her seven-year-old son, who was left moth
ing by the will of his father, who died in
England last spring.

gagged on the case, ex-Gov. Dillingham; and
G. A. Davisof this state being counsel for
the contestant.
The contestant claims that Mr.. Hayes,
at the time the will offered for probate
was made, was of unsound mind, or he
would have made some provision for mis-
young son.
Mrs. Hayes was an interested spectator
at the hearing, which was adjourned until
some time next month.
Francis p. Hayes was the son oil a mil
lionaire, and gained reputation as high
roller in this country and in Europe, spend
ing many thousands of dollars in extrava-
CANT living. For some time his legal resi-
dence was at Ascutneyville. He married
Miss Nina Hunt, daughter of Jarvis Hunt
of Weathersfield. They separated and

WESTMINSTER.
The storm in this village.

Wednesday afternoon brought a welcome
shower. 1t was accompanied by lightning
and thunder which began at noon and were
almost continuous until o'clock Thurs
day morning, At 6 clock the atmosphere
was thick, reminding one of the dark day
of 1882, and the heavens were lurid glare.
At II o'clock a terrific storm of wind and
rain broke, which has not been equalled
for many years, aud it seemed for time
as if the day of doom had come. At day
light, however, we found ourselves right
side up, but the streets presented a strange
appearance with limbs of trees and other
debris lying in windows, bricks from
chimneys strewn abolt, and occasionally a
window burst in. There was no serious
damage, however, AMI we are thankful for
the escape.
