serious accident befel Charles Fl. Clark OF
Skowhegan. Mr.. Clark was proceeding
along Main street, going north, and when
passing PEtnam's store, slipped and fell.
In attempting to rise, severe pain in his
right leg caused him to faint. He was
carried to the City hotel and DR.. Hill
summoned. The doctor made an examin-
alton and reported n bad oblique fracture
of both bones below the knee. DR.. +. q
Thayer was called to assist DR.. Hill and
the fractures were successfully reduced.

the merchants, Saturday night, on &C
count of a report that the water was rising
at Fairfield and that an ice jam in that
vicinity had broken. The runor was an
idle one. but, nevertheless, iJ was the
cause of several of the merchants remov-
ing their goods to the upper stories in
case the flood should again put in an
appearance. Marshal Drake and his
officers notified the men doing business
on Water street that, should anything
alarming happen, the fire whistle would
be blown Therefore, their fears
were allayed, but some of them
remained on the street until
until early in the morning There is no
danger, it is said on good authority, of
the river taking another rise. Sunday,
