A two-inch water pipe leading from
the street main to 0 K Roe's warehouse,
broke last Saturday afternoon just out
side of the foundation wall and threat
ened to food the basement. A large

When Mrs Joe Attlesey returned New
/ Years night to her home in the town of
Porter after couple of days visit with
her parents near Albion, she found the
farm deserted, her husband having
cleared out for parts unknown. The ar
rangement had been made that the wife
was to take the children Sunday before
New Years and 60 to her parents where
Attlesey would join her the next day and
spend few days. He had, however,
sold all the stock, machinery, and even
some silverWare and that Sunday turned
over the property to the purchasers.
| After having realized upon almost every
| thing Of any value on the farm he took
what money there was, with the excep-
| ton of seventy-fve cents and decamped.
| AS a consequence the wife and three
children are left in destitute circum-
stance. It is rumored that another
woman figures in the case ao
Cambridge.

George Dow celebrated his 92d birth
day anniversary last Wednesday. Mr.

John Gates, Jr, of Oakland, met with
a very serious accident on the streets of
FIT Atkinson last Saturday evening. He
was just starting home when an iron in
the neckyoke broke, letting the tongue
! drop; this frightened the horses and they
ran into a telephone pole with such force
as to throw Mr. Gates forward onto his
head, striking in stone gutter It was
thought for time that his injuries we're
fatal. but at present he is on the mend.
Some low-ived, mean and spiteful
whelp who has some grievance against
the railroad company, crept into the
| engine house last Saturday morning
about 5 o'clock, just after the nightwatch
had gone home and opened up the en-
CINE and also the water tank so that
all the water ran out. Fortunately there
was no fire in the engine, otherwise the
result might have been different. 1t is
plainly evident who did the JOB and it
behooves the fellow to be very careful in
committing his depredations, for our
citizens are indignant and propose to
keep pretty close tab on his movements.
