Mrs. John Foskett Of this village was
considerably burned last week, by the ex-
plosion of a canteen of water, which she
was heating for sick person, and from
which she neglected to give the steam op-
portunity to escape. 1t was a narrow es-
cape from serious injury.
The consolidation of the two meat
markets in this village makes one quite

& Coleman keep a small army of en-
ployees and run four carts In this vicinity

Mr.. Rockwell does in the meat business,
shows that the people here abouts have
appetites.
The extensive grading being done just
north west of this village Is not the work
of the Stafford and Springfield railroad
company, as might be- supposed, but of

feet from the top Of a small hill, which
when completed will make splendid build

building lots over that way for which
there will be a brisk demand by-and-by.
At the meeting of the stock holders of
the N. L. N. R. R., at New London on
Monday, the company voted to take stock
in the Stafford and Springfield railroad,
and company for the building of the
latter was organized. A meeting will
soon be held in Springfield, when con.
solidation as permitted by charters with
the Springfield and Longmeadow railroad
will probably be effected.
