Russian Blouse For Ladies and Misses.
The stylish basque exhibited in the
large illustration, and described by
Mary Manton, is made of silk and
wool novelty in the new shade OF tan
known as beige. The trimming is
black ribbon velvet that is applied to
the edge of the right-front in single
band that holds to position straps OF
the same width velvet having mltred
points. The sleeves are decorated at
the wrists with band of velvet and
deep frill of lace, and fancy belt en-
circles the waist. The hat accompany
ing is brown straw of sailor shape, the
severity of which is somewhat re-
lieved by a yelling of spotted chiffon.

The Accident to Milo Curtis Train.

A boy named S. Sharp Foster, Is years
of age was arrested Friday in Keene sus-
pected Of having placed the bolt upon the
track which was thought to have derailed
Milo Curtis train. He had a hearing be-
fore Judge Holmes Saturday and proved
himself entirely innocent and was dis
charged. He was not one of the three
boys who had been suspected but evidence
put in at this time by railroad men and
others showed conclusively that the three
boys had not been in the vicinity for some
hours, and other trains had passed since,
proving beyond doubt that they were not
guilty There is still considerable question
as to whether the accident was really
caused by the bolt, and if it was, there is
no clue as to how it came there. Detec-
tives are making very thorough investi-
CATION of every theory, but as we said a
week ago, it is doubtful if the cause is ever
definitely settled.

New Building for Lumber Dressing MIL

H. E. Cox, who is building the extern
sive lumber dressing mill on the south side
Of Williams street, is getting ready to
move into the new quarters from his old
locality on Rockingham street. His engine
and boiler have been placed in position
and the other machinery is to be there this
week. His new building is 101 feet long,
40 feet wide, two stories ard basement,
besides the boiler house. Mr.. Cox is to
rent portion of the building for other
manufacturing purposes. He is to add
considerable new machinery to that he
already has and is to put in blower to
blow the shavings into the shaving room
near the boiler The structure is sub
stantially butt one, and will be an addition
to the business enter prises of the village.
The old shop where he moves out is owned
by Mrs. Fleming, and as it is in rather
dilapidated condition it is questionable if
it is ever occupied again. Mr.. Cox in
tends to continue his business of furnishing
window and door frames and all kinds of
finish for houses.

MAN AND HIS SHOES.

How much man is like his shoes!
For instance both a soul may lose;
Both have Leen tanned; both are made
tight
BY cobblers; both get left and right.
Both need mate to be completes;
And both are made to 60 on feet.
They both need heeling; oft are sold,
And both in time will turn to mold.
With shoes the last is first; with men
The first shall be the last; and when
The shoes wear out they're mended new
When men wear out they're men dead
too!
They both are tread upon, and both
Will tread on others, nothing 10th.
Both have their ties, and both incline
When polished, in the world to shine
And both peg out. Now would you
choose
To be a man or be his shoes?

Oak Hill Cemetery.

The storms of Friday afternoon caused
some damage in Oak Hill cemetery to the
terraces, and avenues, owing to there being
so large volume of water the catch basins
would not carry it all off and it ran over
the terraces washing out at few points.
The volume of water was the largest which
has ever been seen there since the cemetery
was located. The commissioners are at
work with a force of men repairing the
marks of the storm, and are now increas-
ing the size of the basins to be sure not to
have the trouble occur again. They esti-
mate the damage at perhaps 800. The
work which is being done in the cemetery
each year is Of the most permanent nature,
and looking to long series of years in
the future. Whenever any one point of
weakness is found in any part of their
work it is remedied at once so it cannot oc-
cur again. Each year these grounds, in
the absence of any park accommodations
for our village, particularly Sundays, attract
an increasing number of visitors, all OF
whom express themselves as pleased with
present conditions and beauty Of the place.

Another Raid.

Officers Thompson and Buemond made
raid Saturday evening upon the cigar
store and night lunch owned by Frank NJ as
succo located in the Thomas Dominique
block at the north end Of the square. In
the refrigerator of the store, and in the
basement, they found two cases of lager
beer which had been put into Eddys tonic
bottles from kegs by Massucco. Up stairs
in rooms occupied by him as residence
they found % bottles of whiskey and a
quantity of port wine. These they removed
and Monday evening hearing was had at
States Attorney Robb's office, at which F.
A. Bolles appeared Tor the respondent.
Pleading not guilty he was tried before
Justice Williams, found guilty of keeping
with intent to sell and also proven to be
the owner Of the ardent and the beer was
ordered destroyed. The justice found re-
gardlng the whiskey and wine there was no
evidence to controvert his statement that
it was for his family use and it was all re-
turned to him. His fines and costs on these
two cases amounted to about $35. There
is still charge against him for selling to
which he plead not guilty and the states
attorney is to try the case tomorrow or
next day, feeling confident lie can prove
large number of offenses.
1t was supposed these were to constitute
second offenses as the same store was con-
victed in 1895, but evidence was introduced
showing that at the time the previous con-
viction was had brother of the respond
ent was running the store, and was the one
against whom the conviction stood.
