large in the woods across the stream in
Duxbury. He was not violent patient"

Ambassador Porter reports the find.
ing in Paris of the grave of John Paul
Jones, naval hero of the American Revo-
luton.
The discovery waam ade by cores
pendent for the Philadelphia times. Sec

First Touch of Winter.

The snowstorm which came Saturday
proved more lasting than was antici.
pated and though less than six inches fell
the seighing is fairly good and the snow
has stayed ever since. The snow plows
were not caught mapping this year and
long before early risers were on the
street excellent paths had been made.
With the storm came zero weather and
the mercury the last two mornings has
been very near if not below zero.
Old residents recall the winter OF 1843
when the snow came the Goth of October
and lasted until spring. John H. Drew
was boy at Hardwick then and remem-
bers how it commenced that memorable
Saturday morning. Before noon it
changed to snow and by Sunday morn
ing foot of snow had fallen. Many Of
the farmers had not gathered their pota-
toes for the winter. but the heavy snow
fall protected the crops and the ground
did not freeze all winter. In the spring
the farmers gathered their vegetables
and found they had kept as well as il
they had been in their barns or cellars.
