 Ernest Cady. who lives with Henry Thresher, and his brother, Oscar Cady, got mixed up with more water last Tues day than they have come in contact with before for many day. It appears that Os- car, whose home is in Amherst, has been in the habit of staying through the having season each summer with Ernest for the purpose of assisting in the work about the farm, and last Tuesday not be- ing just the kind of a summers day when Maud could rake the hay, they decided to take day off and have little recl cation. Fitting themselves with a complete para phernalia for both land and water sport, they started out and after a time found themselves on Chaffee's pond. Now, those who are acquainted with the two brothers know that the individual weight of each Is not just even enough to bal ance a badly constructed boat, and they | hdNO 6Ob hOlu O1 bIO OHO budb pldJcG such havoc with a party from this village only about a week ago. They had only been out short time, when Ernest, in his quiet way, moved his weight little, and over the boat went, throwing them both into the water. This time the case was different; the water was deep and the boys had to swim. The boat con. tai ned all their sporting traps, including two double-barreled shot guns, and oi course everything went to the bottom By considerable dredging yesterday they managed to fish up one of the guns, but the remainder of the traps will probably have to remain where they are until the sea gives up its dead.
