Last year the members Of the Melon
Growers association drew, in some in.
stances, n large number OF crates, many
more. 30 II turned out, than they needed.
and the surplus being returned late in
the season, went to swell the large vol.
nme OF crates which were stored last
winter MT the FAIR grounds. All OF them
had to be paid for. and many were paid
for which were scattered around among
growers throughout the entire season.
This year the association will not take
back any crates from anybody. This or.
der just made by the board will tend to
nn economical drawing OF crates and en-.
able the electors to know ut all times

ms its acceptance would entail n loss Of

treated IN this affair. There is an evil
dent intention to get their property ut
an unjust price because the Refrigerator
company "has the ciuch" on the Ice

Grafton, July 24--Mrs. Lucy Melvina
Potter was killed in a runaway acci-
dent on Mt. Monadnock, Fitzwilliam,
N. H., Sunday evening. She, with
her grandson, her only surviving rela-
tive, was on a two weeks pleasure

She rode up the mountain Sunday
morning with four others. and, return
ing, left the mountain hotel at o'clock.
She and middle-aged lady were in the
carriage alone, going down one of the
steepest grades, the rest of the party
preferring to walk.
The harness on the horse was in it's
last stages of usefulness, and the hold
back broke. The animal became fright
ened and ran down the road at a lively
rate. The younger occupant, in at
tempting to jump, was thrown out when
the horse first started to run, and re-
ceived slight bruises.
Mrs. Potter remained in the carriage
until a sharp turn was reached in the
road. below which was a steep en-
banknent, mostly covered with brush
and stone. Here she was thrown a
distance OF several feet down the en-
bankment.
and remained so for half an hour, when
she regained consciousness and re-
manned so until ten minutes before
DEATH which came in three hours and
forty minutes from the time Of the
accident. During this time she was
unable to speak but little. She passed
away with very little suffering. al
ly bruised.
BY chance, there was a doctor on the
mountain at the time, but he was with
out equipments. The nearest doctor
was seven miles distant, and upon ar
rival, could do nothing to save her life.
Mrs. Potter, whose maiden name was
Brigham, was born near Barre, Vt. 70
years II months and / day before her
death. She was twice married first To
John T. Welman of Pennington. Me,
