THE NEW ORGAN.


 The exhibition of the new organ by
 Charles < Jardjne Of New York was greatly CT rioyed by a very large cougre. gatiOn. Among the eight we'll chosen numbers were selections from ''Il Troya. tore, "Faust," "Cavalipro Rusticano', and "Home, Sweet Home" The rever- ent attention of all present testified to their appreciation Of the music The or gan fund has been accommodating during the past three years, the bulk of it having been given by Trinity Guild, large part being the proceeds of the flower shows held in the fall and the rest coming from offerings takcn in church in July and January. When the fund WAS started it was exp ."tcd to require many years to COmplrtr l.. But since the wise plan was decided DI"u m the winter to rebuild the old orGao, u.jpE what was good in it, yet 70 impro. & if, atd u.odcruizing it that | it is prul.sc4uy new instrument, the members of the parish have given SO ib- | eTalIy that more than $ 100 has bygu rais- rd in 8 short time. This with what has | ''' 'N '' tsNieAN St by ittiAF NsQIIQs D llNJ. ard tue accumulated fund If nearly sUUO, Is almost sufficient to meet tue expense of the vhoIc work. Some more may be received from other sources and the rest paid for cut of the general income of tAe parish. The removal of the organ from he old gallery in the west end of the church, where it was much damaged by the leakage Of the tower, to the north east corner by the chanccl is great iu- provemeut. And the artistic arrange ment of the pipes mounted above the case beautifully GuiShru in polished quartcrcd oak adds greatly to the interior beauty of the church.

AN AGRICULTURAL
 TON
AssOCIA

WILL PROBABLY BE FORMED FOR THE HOLDING OF AN ANNUAL FAIR A
 GOOD DEGREE OF INTEREST NANTES
 TED.
 The adjourned meeting of the tempor-
 ary organization interested in promul-
 gating an agricultural association here | in NeWt0wu, met at Grange hall on Saturday afternoon of last week. This
 meeting showed all increased interest of
 the previous meeting in that there was an attcrdance of r people, but this number was nothing to what it should have been. The principal business of the afJtrnoo was the nearing of the re- port of the committee appointed at the last meeting to canvass the town for subscriptions to stock. Four of the committee were present and reported $2lOO already pledged, should the or ganizatiOn be perfected, one member of the committee not being heard from. The remainder of the time was passed in discussing available sites, etc., and the secretary read the proposed articles of association. It seems almost certain now that corporation will be formed to hold each year in Newtown an annual agricultural fair. The matter is no longer a Grange affair, although the idea originated with the Grange, but it is now matter of public interest and che public are asked and expected to take hold of the prciect, and push it along, for it is a good thing for the town, The meeting adjourned for one week, till Saturday afternoon of this week, May 1G, At o'clock, this meeting to be hold at Town shall. It is hoped 1 hat now such 8 good start has been made, there will be a general turnout of our citizens to give impetus to the pro- ] tt and encourage those already inter- estad, who have given considerable time in making the start.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT RESULTING IN TWO
 DEATHS.

A bad accident happened st the sewer trench, last Saturday afternoon. The bank suddenly caved in and buried two Italians completely, third partly, and also D. N. Clark was caught therein. The first two were dead, one from suffo- cation and the other from broken skull, and only lived a short time after being taken out. The third had an arm badly buried and Mir Clark was injured so that he was confined to his room few days. The trench was 12 feet in depth and about three feet in width. The cause of the cave in was said to be from the Italians digging under the curbing.
