Changes in Grocery Business.

There will be two or three important
changes in the grocery business of this
place in the near future.
Underhill Bros, now on Canal street,
will remain in their present quarters only
until next April l. They will then move
into the Aldrich house on Westminster
street at the foot of the Old Terrace This
will be the second store at some distance
from the Square. The tendency here is
the same as in all towns where there is
growth and progress, business begins to
scatter; few rods along the Square will
not always be the only place where bust
ness can be done. The new quarters will
be put into first class condition and iudg-
ing from the location Underhill Bros. will
find the change desirable and advantageous
A new grocery store will soon be opened
by Frances Reynolds in the old Adams &
Jefts store on Westminster street A com
plete line of groceries will be put in. Mr.
Reynolds has been in the employ of David

Coal Gas the Cause.

4Ihe mystery connected with the poison
ing of Mr.. and Mrs. f. H. Brown and SER
want in Montreal last week Sunday has
been solved The poisoning was by coal
gas.
On Saturday evening, when the servant
returned, she filled up the furnace with
coal and went to bed. Mrs. Brown now
remembers having smelt gas at an early
hour in the evening. A large leak in one
of the furnace pipes allowed the foul gas to
escape and very nearly caused the death of
three persons. The reason given for Mr..
Browns particularly narrow escape was
that he had eaten no food for some time
and the gas acting on an empty stomach
had more rapid effect. At the time Of the
poisoning it was wondered, if it had been
caused with gas, how canary in the bed
room window had escaped any injury. The
cage was hung high and steady draught
played upon it from the window.
Mrs. Brown and the servant are almost
entirely recovered, while Mr.. Brown i'm
proves daily, and is expected to be around
again shortly.
