The Blanchard Bros. are erecting a
large block on South Main street. The
building will be S0xS6 and four stories
high and will be great addition to
that part of the city. They believe
money invested at home pays as well
or better than Western investments
and gives employment to the laboring
class in the city.
At the meeting of voters of the city
last Wednesday evening it was voted
not to accept of the plan submitted for
City Hall. The estimated cost of the
building in accordance with the plan
was from $S5,000 10 100000 which
was thought to be more expensive than
was expedient. The city council were
instructed to call another meeting as
soon as could be legally called. to see
if the city would build City Hall, and
if 80 elect a building committee, etc.
1t was thought that hall or building
costing from $4,000 to $4,000 was
good enough.

of the threatened danger, help was
secured and the assassin was soon seen
approaching the home of Mrs. Cook,
and when within few rods of the
house he was seen to stagger and fall
TO the ground. When he was reached
by those in waiting he was found in a
seeming unconscious condition caused
by fatigue or the effect of laudanum as
an empty bottle was found in his pocket
After being carried into the house he
rallied, and was soon in the hands of
the officers. On his person was found
a revolver with two chambers empty
and box nearly full Of 80 cartridges.
There is no doubt but if Mrs. Cook
had been allowed to have been in the
room with him he would have carried
out his threat. He was taken to jail
to await his trial, and we are informed
that he died in Montpelier Jail at l
O'Clock Sunday. This then is the end
of what came near being fearful
tragedy.

The thought comes just now to me
OF the country green and cool,
OF the red wing black birds hattering
Behind the ''district school,"
II brings me soothing fancies
of the homestead on the hill,
And hear the robins morning song,
And the evening whip-poOr-will.
And fall to thinking tenderly
of those used to know
Where the dandelion and snake root
And checkerberries grow.
What has become of the Gillette boys

And what's become of Franklin Chubb
