Breaking Bridge; Narrow Escape.

Norrisville, VT, Aug. 2.-Thomas Pat
terson Of Craftsbury met with a peculiar
accident from which he narrowly es-
capped death. He was driving wagon
on which were 27oOO shingles. The
wagon broke through a bridge over a
gully on the opposite side of the river
one mile from here, and Patterson was
buried under the shingles. A num-
Der of men at work quite distance from
the bridge, who had their attention
called to the accident, extricated Pat

third shot was fired which struck him in
the hip. Joyce was taken to the hospi-

spain Desires a Joint Issue Made O.
Cuba and Philippines,

WASHINGTON, Oct, 14-The peace
commissioners at Paris are still deal
ing with propositions relating to Cuba
but have not yet taken up the subject
of the future Of the Philippines.
From an insistence on the strictest
construction Of the articles Of the pro-
tocol, the Spanish commissioners have
swung to the opposite extreme and are
now looking for amelioration of condi-
tons therein laid down. on the ground
that the agreement was hastily drawn
and under great pressure There is an
evident wish on their part to associate
Cuba and the Philippines in their final
disposition which may explain the last
application of the Spanish military
commissioners for an extension of the
time allowed for the evacuation OF
Cuba. This application will be duly
considered, but, nevertheless, our gov
eminent will insist that the admins
tration Of Cuba be relinquished by the
Spanish officials on Dec. l, even if the
Spanish troops have not all been en-
barked for return to Spain.

1t Is believed that the Spaniards sub

protocol that it was just to consider
Spain as having equities fairly dis
chargeable by the American assumption
of Cuban obligations. 1t is not unlike
ly that the Americans voiced the con-
Viction that fair equities TO the United
States in war expense were incurred

Some of the Soldiers Boxes Have
Not Been Called For.

Some of the Soldiers Boxes Have
Not Been Called For.
There are about Is Of the boys of the
Thirteenth regiment for whom no boxes have
been secured as yet by relatives and friends.
1t is thought possible if not probable, that
many Of these men are from distant cities
where the plan is unknown. There are I'M
doubtedly some, too, with no relatives to
look after their Christmas Offering and patri-
otto citizens are invited to take the RESPONSE
bility for at least one of these uncalled for
boxes each. In the nature of the plan, it
was not intended that a single volunteer
should be passed by or forgotten in the kind
ly Christmas remembrance.
In addition to promising that his road will
carry all these boxes to the terminus Of
the Great Northern at Seattle, President
James j. Hill has agreed to carry them al,
free of charge, through to San Francisco.
The Northern Pacific, with like generosity,
will do the same by all boxes coming out
Of the Dakotas.
One Of the best suggestions in connection
with these Christmas boxes for the boys is
that OF putting in each soldiers box the
photographs Of his parents, wife or children.
Thus many of the boxes will be supplied
with presents that will be priceless in the
eyes of the recipients.
Persons who can furnish suitable articles,
but feel unable to fill a box may leave
them at headquarters and they will be
properly packed. The committee also ask
that all persons who know the names of
men in the bands hospital corps or signal
corps will call at headquarters Immediately
and register the same.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-The Press
says: 1t is said on the authority OF an
officer of the Northern Pacific that the
fight between the j. P Morgan and the
J. j. Hill factions has been settled so
far as the payment of a dividend on
the common stock of that railroad is
concerned. 1t was agreed yesterday
that a dividend would be paid on the
common stock. The president of the
company will recommend and a ma
jority Of the directors yesterday agreed
to consider the recommendation favor
ably. The directors meet in Novem-
Der, when the subject will be consid-
cred formally. The controversy be-
tween the factions as to the status of
the Oregon Short Line on through
business, as affecting the Northern Pa
cific and the Great Northern, remains
unsettled, and 1t Is on this point that
several bitter letters have passed be-
tween the two factions. The recent
election of directors of that company
indicates that that question, too, will
be settled amicably.
The authority for these statements
is a director of the Northern Pacific
who is also member of the executive
committee of that railroad. For Obvi-
Gus reasons he refuses the use OF his
name in connection with the statement
He pointed out that the railroad I'M
der its agreement must pay 4 per cent
on the preferred stock before a diVi-
dend on the common stock can be de-
clared. Such a dividend has been paid,
and it is expected that at the direc-
tors meeting in November a 1 per cent
quarterly dividend on the common
stock will be authorized.
