a SAD ACCIDENT.

a sad drowning accident occurred
in this city on Sunday evening when
the Winooski gathered its second vic
tim within the year, the localities
where the tragedies occurred being
only a short distance apart.
Carleton c., the twelve years old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Mcmillan
of Prospect street, got into boat
owned by Owen Murther, which was
moored on the Berlin street side of
the stream about opposite the resi-
dence of Aaron Bancroft. AS the boy
drifted out into the stream he was
observed by woman, who called out
to him to come back. There were no
oars in the boat and the boy began to
pull on the rope, which was trailing
in the water, evidently expecting to
pull himself in shore The lad has
since his birth been subject to epilepsy
and it is believed that becoming fright
ened he suffered an epileptic fit and
fell into the water.
The accident occurred about six
o clock. The alarm was sounded and
two searching parties in boats dragged
the river. Chief Reagan and Alder
man Ryle were present and gave all
the aid they could while large
and along the banks of the stream.
The boat was soon recovered, but
nothing was found in it save the lad S
little cap, which the father later iden
titled.
Mrs. Mcmillan and Miss Fountain,
her sister were on their way over
town when they heard of the acci
dent, and not then knowing how near
home the tragedy was to come, they
returned to the house and asked Mr..
Mcmillan, who was lying on the sofa
reading, where the boy was. He re-
piled that the lad was all right as he
had just left him sitting outside the
door picking some daisies only a few
minutes before and he laughed at the
fears for the boys safety expressed
by the women but finally consented to
go down TO the river bank. Upon ar
irving at the shore Mr. Mcmillan
learned that their suspicious were only
too true and after about an hour S
search the lad $ body was brought to
| the surface by Nelson Gale at a point
where the boy was last seen in the
boat
The funeral will be held from St
Augustine's church on Tuesday morn
ing The father is "a granite cutter
and the members of the local branch
of the Granite Cutters Union are
showing their sympathy for the strick
en- family in substantial way by a
generous subscription. Mr.. Mcmillan 5
family consisted of himself wife and
four children, the drowned boy being
the eldest.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.

Harry H. Baxter, a well known
young man of Barre, attempted sui
eide early Sunday morning by shooting
himself III the left breast with a
thirty-two calibre revolver.
1t is supposed he committed the
rash act sometime about three O. clock
Il. m, although 1t was not discovered
until seven o'clock in the morning
when Baxter called n. p Hill, a
boarder at the same house on Summer
street. Baxter did not wish phys
ician to be called but DIR. F. G. Ligou-
ri was summoned and found the
wounded man lying partially dressed
on the bed still conscious but suffering
greatly from the wound. He was re-
moved to the hospital and DR.. Newton
called. They worked over him a
long time trying to find the bullet,
but gave up the attempt, as the pa
tient was in a weak condition. When
questioned he said he was tired of
life. Il made mistake / aimed
for the heart, and only penetrated the
lung. " 1t is said he attempted suicide
three weeks ago in respondent filthy
taking poison.
1t is said that Baxter had been in
dulging heavily in liquor during the
past week and Saturday night was in
formed by his employers, B. w Hook
er & Co., that he must mend his ways
or leave their employ.
BaXter's home is at Barton where
his sister, Mrs. Grow, and his father
live. He came to Barre from St.
Johnsbury three years ago and opened
carpet cleaning establishment. He
was bought out by B. w. Hooker, by
whom he had been employed since,
He was a quiet, unassuming fellow,
and popular with his associates. He
was twenty six years old, was in good
health and had good position. The
act was a surprise to his friends, al
though he was known to have moody
fits. No attempt was made during the
day to probe for the ball as the physi
clans feared internal bleeding.
