III. cole recently ordered some big

and smother thirty, and they are the

south Paris man recently secured a
prizp i1 the form of horse which
!rorps 80 +. rattles the dishes in the
rsrfry. Ir is reported to the Democrat
=. rbe solemn truth that the owner OF
the horse has 70 turn out in she middle
NJ these cold nights and go down TO the
..,hle sind feed the horse, so he will
STOP snoring aud the family eau sleep.
There +. talk OF holding three or four
terms of Probate Court a year at Rum |
ford Falls. I'm view of the large amount |
Of probate business in that section. In
deed. ir is practically decided that Judge |
Verrick will do so, and petition has
beeu circulated during the past week for |
s,mAu increase in the salaries OF the
Judge aud register, in view OF the add
toual work required.
Mrs. George II. Davis, whose illness
with pneumonia was noted last week, |
died Wednesday. Mrs. Davis was a
native of Woodstock, and her maiden |
name was E,tella Robbins. Her first |
husband WAS Y. II. Perry, the mineral |
ogjsr. After his death she married MIR.
Davis. Mrs. Davis was an active worker |
in the grange, and dawes many friends |
: 10 mourn her loss. She leaves nus
band. also two daughters, Mrs. Hiram |
Thur.Ow and Miss Bertha Perry.
The f.i population reached high |
water mark last Tuesday, when thirty |
prisoners we're entertained for day and |
auigh-. A. the ill has sleeping accom-
dati0u, Cor only twenty-eight, 1t became |
nece,,sry. aS in prosperous hotel, |
10 set up cots. Not in a generation |
before have thirty prisoners been gather
ed 10 the oxford County jail. Indeed, |
there va, one year, about "a decade since,
when the old stone j Ill on the Hill stood
empty for weeks at time, and the aver
age for the year was small fraction less
than Que inmate.
Il was probably generally understood,
though the Democrat failed TO state the
hct definitely last week, that Hartford's
- eggs daily from twenty-five hens
should have been Il. Ii was one OF those
errors which will sometimes occur, ana
in thi, case was due tn the combined |
operation of the correspondent, the com
positor and the proof reader, each OF
whom had "a certain share in producing |
the result. The food of iuquiring aud |
protesting letters which poured in on
the Democrat was eloquent testimony TO
the JhorOughuess with which the paper |
Eread
On account of the suspension OF the
court and the severity of the weather, no
temperance meeting was held Wednes-
DAY evening. IL was generally supposed
that there would be no meeting, and
though a few of the faithful assembled
TO conduct meeting if it should be
called for, the crowd did not materialize.
Two ladies braved the weather and
made their WAY up from the other end OF
the town They had the gallery all TO
themselves, aud were so nearly lost IN
its vaStuesS that the sheriff, when ne
came in u turn off the lights, did not
see them and would have left them H.
: the dark but for their eager expostula-
ton.
The Norway and Paris Street Railway
resumed operations last week, but for SO
short time that the wonder is, III II
Was so soon 20 be done for, what was IL
ever begun for" Euterprisiug citizens
OF Norway were the cause of the re-
opening They hustled around Monday
and raised money enough TO pay Tor
shOyeliug out the track, and Tuesday
morning regular trips were resumed
They were kept up till Wednesday even,

10 on the rails and the struggle was
