keeping the results to themselves An as

Lake Shore Company stock Bought by
the New York ,OOO,-
900 Gold Bond Issue to BE offered.

In accordance with the plans for the
merging of the New York Central and
Lake Shore railroads, the directors of the
New York Central authorized Friday an
issue of 500, 600, 600 of 10O-year 8! per
cent collateral gold bonds Each $1,000
bond is to be given in exchange for five
shares of Lake Shore stock
President Chauncey NJ Depew gave out
the following statement: The New York
Central and Hudson River railroads di-
rectors passed the necessary resolution for
the purchase of stock of the Lake Shore
Railroad company The Vanderbits and
others represented by them have sold TO
the New York Central their holdings of
the capital stock of the Lake Shore 4 Mich
igan Southern Railroad company, and in
exchange for every five shares of such
stock accepted one gold bond of the New
York Central for $1,000 bearing 3! per
cent annual interest and payable in 100
years. The Messrs. Vanderbilt made this
sale upon the express provision that the
same terms should be offer to all holders
of the stock of the Lake Shore, and that
such offer should remain open for accept
ance by the Lake Shore stockholders for
the period of at least 60 days"
Mr.. Depew further says: There is no
doubt that this action is of benefit to both
companies and to the stockholders Of both
companies, and also to the public and to
the city of New York. Under the au-
thority of the board, the New York Cen
trial will purchase on similar terms TO
those accepted by the Messrs. Vanderbilt
and their friends any part of the stock of
the Lake Shore Railroad company which
may be offered, and an official notice TO
that effect will be published in few days.

Meteor Falls In IdahO.

Report reaches Boise, Idaho, of the fall
ing of a monster meteor in the vicinity of
Dubois. The aerolite fell in an immense
sand butte and was followed by shower
of meteoric stones. The shock was felt
for radius of 20 miles, and the people
thought it an earthquake. A party of
sheep men came in the next day and ex-
planned the phenomenon. They said James
Turner, a stock man, was not a great dis
lance from the spot where the meteor fell
and was SO badly shocked he is in a semi
conscious state and they fear his mind is
seriously affected. An effort will be made
to dig up parts of the meteor in the inter
est of science.

A Monster WaterspOut.
II Was One and n Half Mile High and
Lasted Half an Hour.

Passengers on the British steamer Asiatic
Prince, which arrived at New York Mon
day from Brazilian ports say they saw a
marvellous waterspOut the morning of the
I'd inst. No one on board the Asiatic
Prince had ever seen its equal, either as to
height, size, or duration. The steamer was
in Latitude 1921 n. and longitude "a 81
W. The waterspout appeared about four
miles distant, and was fully one and half
mile in length. The surrounding heavens
just above were black and lowering. The
spray and vapor at the base appeared to be
fully 500 or 600 feet in diameter, and leaped
upwards to distance of 200 feet A most
astonishing feature of this phenomenon
was its long duration. Such spouts usually
last 10 minutes or less. This waterspout
continued for one-half hour At the be-
ginning its fall was almost perpendicular,
but as 1t began to give way it assumed the
shape of an immense crank in the sky
Swerving in a northwesterly direction it
broke near the middle then reunited and
finally receded, and torrents of rain fell in
immense sheets all about the locality.

D. F. Holden of Hardwick was arrested
for refusing to pay his fare on the Rutland
railroad. Mr. Holden recently bought a
Rutland railroad mileage book at Burling
ton. The agent evidently misunderstood
Holden's name for he wrote it "A. F.
Holdes." Mr. Holden used the book once
or twice. The next time he presented it
the conductor, referring to the name asked
Mr.. Holden if that was his name, the Hard
wick man answered no The conductor
returned the book, but as Mr.. Holden re
fused to pay cash an officer was called and
he was arrested He was adiudged guilty
of misdemeanor at Rutland and was fined
81 and costs amounting to $40. - Mr..
Holden appealed and bail was fixed at $40
During the proceedings an order was re-
ceived by the court from John 5. Holden
of Bennington, a brother of the defendant
announcing that he was ready to bail the
defendant in any amount the court would
see fit to name up TO 5000 900.

William Corcoran was riding past the
house of Jack Kelly Saturday evening,
when Kelly rushed out, climbed into Cor
coran's sleigh, drew a revolver and leveled
it at Corcoran. Corcoran grabbed sled
stake, striking Kelly and rendering him
unconscious. The scene of the ARRAY was
in the Cox Brook neighbor God near where
the towns of Mortified, Berlin and More
town converge. The attack was an out
break in a feud which has enlisted for a
long time. Kelly attacked Corcoran about
year ago, but was seriously wounded by
the latter, who was armed with knife.
