The oppositon's blunders however. should not
be taken 70 account wholly for Mr. Hannas
victory. Though opposed with personal bitter
ness exceptional even IN Ohio's turbulent poll
tics by a considerable element in the party in
this State. he has won his fight by persistent
and logged appeal 10 the sentiment OF party
regularity and loyalty. Having taken the pre-
caution 10 have his candidacy Endorsed by the
Republican State Convention in 1897. and by

tions held last fall. ne could effectively maintain
that the party support was pledged to him IN

Died from Eating Grass.

The death Of Frederick E. Cass Satur-
day evening was particularly sad. The
little fellow would have been seven years
of age on August next. 1t seems that
Sunday evening June 26, he and another
boy were "playing horse" and in a child
ish way were eating grass, or making be-
lieve eat, after the style Of horses. That
night Freddie was taken i'll and was sick
all Of last week, having two or three hem
orrhages during the time. The boy in
sisted that he had swallowed grass the
wrong way and the doctors and attendants
suspected that that was the cause of the
trouble. A post norton was held at 8 A.
NJ, Sunday which disclosed whole head Of
herds grass in the lower lobe Of the left
lung. This head had gone into the wind
pipe and worked its way through the en-
tire length of the lung and was protruding
a half inch from the lower end.
The deceased was the son of Mrs. Ellen
Cass living on Atkinson street and q
grandson of L. M. Cass who have the SYM
psthy of large circle of neighbors and
friends. The funeral was at 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon with interment in Oak
Hill, Rev. J. H. Reid officiating.

tening to the music and had a most delight
full time in spite Of the more than tropical
temperature and the fact that the only air
apparent was the one played by the band.
In Bellows Falls itself the Fourth began
Satu day and was diligently observed by
Young America for the space of about 8
days, the idea possibly being to make up
in quantity what the celebration lacked in
quality. Several impatient youngsters
showed strong disposition to forget the
Sabbath day to keep it holy, and the quiet
was considerably disturbed IN consequence
by the premature explosion of few
punches of crackers.
But at midnight pent up emotions found
a vent and pandemonium broke loose.
Detachments Of youthful patriots marched
the streets with tin horns and other instru-
ments of torture and wise householders
Immediately went out and sat down on
their doorsteps to prevent the same from
being moved across the river into New
Hampshire. Possession was taken of all
the church bell ropes, except the Metho-
dist; for when the celebration reached that
house Of worship they found an ice cream
party in full blast and realized at once that
to get ahead of the Methodist ladies' it is
not enough to rise early or even to stay up
all night.
The sun rose on scene of some demon
alization and the forenoon was spent by
property-owners in general exchange OF
of front porches, back piazzas, woodsheds
and concrete walks. The remains of
bonfire smouldered in the square but the
Fourth as whole was very similar to the
Third except that few more crackers
were perhaps touched off and in the fore
noon a masked battery Of boys paraded
about, headed by "yaller kid, who bore
banner with strange device.
In the evening there were fireworks on
several lawns in the village land the fire
flies did what they could to help out the
display.

Dropped Dead.

George W. Stanley, farmer living in
Langdon, N. H., dropped dead on Green
street Monday forenoon.
Mr.. Stanley had several customers in
Bellows Falls whom he supplied with but
ter, eggs and other farm produce and SO
made frequent visits to this village. Mon
day morning about 10 80 o'clock he stopped
at the house OF F. E. Proctor on Green
street to deliver some butter. Several
boys near by were firing 6re-crackers and
his horse was a little frightened. After
stopping in front of Mr.. Proctor's place he
asked one Of the boys to hold his horse.
He stepped from his wagon to his horses
head and took hold of one rein and at once
sank to the ground on his knees. Mr..
Proctor, who was standing near by, caught
his head and called for assistance suppos-
ing the man had tainted or was in q fit. A
doctor was summoned and the case an
nounced death by heart disease.
The body was taken to the undertaking
rooms Of the Chase Furniture Company
and removed to Langdon yesterday morn
ing. The deceased leaves a widow, q
daughter Of Robert Elwell Of Langdon, who
was Mrs. Townshend at the time he mar
ried her. She had three children by her
first marriage, but none from her marriage
with Mr.. Stanley. The funeral will be
from his home in Langdon at P. today.
Mr.. Stanley was respected by all who
knew him, and peculiar circumstance was
the fact that the preceding night at late
hour he returned from Swanzey, N. H.,
where he attended the funeral Of sister.

The Fourth in Bellows Falls.

The people of Bellows Falls are famous
for being easily carried away by their
enthusiasts and the Fourth was no excep-
ton to the general rule, save that the tide
of feeling on this occasion rose to such a
height that it carried the biggest part Of
the population out of town.
Some took TO the woods to escape the
noise of the city, which was as uproarious
as Sunday school picnic. while Others
formed parties at the various lakes, where
they enjoyed exceptional opportunities for
studying the maneuvers of mosquito fleets.
But the main body Of citizens moved on
to Springfield with their torpedoes, pre-
plred to carry that place by assault; the
town, however, was so well fortified with
toy pistols and cannon crackers that the
idea had to be abandoned and q peaceable
entrance was effected instead. Here they
spent the day in riding on the electrics,
watching the sports and races, not to men.

pors. And as he walked he champed still
at the unlit cigar and brooded over the
angularity Of his fate. But when he
passed between the gates of the dock
company's premises and exchanged
words with the policeman on guard
change came over him. He threw away
the cigar stump, frightened his lips and
left all thoughts of personal matters
outside the doorsill. He was Mr..
Gedge's hired servant His brain was
devoted to furthering Gedge's interests,
and all the acid of his tongue was ready
to spur on those who did the manual
work on Gedge's ship.
Within minute Of his arrival on
her decks the Sultan of Borneo was be-
ing unmoored from the bollards on the
quay; within ten, her winches were
gathering and bucking as they warped
her across to the black straddling coal
shoots at the other side of the dock, and
within half an hour the cargo was
roaring down her matches as fast as the
railway wagons on the grimy trestle
overhead could disgorge. The halo of
coal dust made day into dusk; the grit
Of it filled every Granny and settled as
an amorphous scum on the water of the
dock, and laborers hired by the hour
toiled at piece work pace through sheer
terror at their employer. If his other
failings could have been eliminated, the
little skipper with the red peaked beard
would certainly have been, from an
owners point Of view, the best COM
mander sailing out of any English port.
No man ever wrenched such magnifi-
cent amount of work from his hands.
But it was those other failings which
kept him what he was, the pitiful
knockabout shipmaster, living from
hand to mouth. never certain of his
berth from one months end to another.
That afternoon Captain Kettle signed
with the help of his two mates kicked
the majority Of them into sobriety. He
received a visit and final instructions
from Gedge at 6 oclock, and by night
fall he had filed in his papers, warped
out of dock and stood anxiously on the
bridge watching the pilot as he took the
steamboat down through the crowded
shipping of the river. His wife stood
under the glowing arc lamp on the
dock head and waved him goodby
through the gloom.
Captain Kettle received his first
fright as he dropped his pilot just out
side the Tyne pier heads. A man-of-
wars launch steamed up out of the
night, and the boarding officer examined
his papers and asked questions. The
little captain, conscious of having no
contraband of war on board just then,
was brutally rude. but the naval officer
remained stolid and refused to see the
insults which were pitched at him. He
had an unpalatable duty to perform he

Editor of Bellows Falls TIMES:
Dear Sir: desire to express my regret for
not being permitted to be present and pay
my last respects for the remains of nv late
stepfather, George Slate, who was ever kind
to me in many ways, in fact a father to the
fatherless. His care for my mother won not
only gratitude but my admiration and in Jus
tice to myself and the many relatives and
friends in Bellows Falls and elsewhere, I
desire to state through the columns of your
paper that the first information 1 received of
his illness was the statement of his death in
your pepper, therefore could not be present
at the funeral.
Respectfully,
adv w. 7. GIBSON.
