The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER.
dated October 20, has an accompany
ing sheet with a fine description OF
the schools of that city, which occupy
six fine, well equipped buildings,
beside three kindergartens and the
Wood County Normal Training school.
This sheet also displays fine array
of faces of persons who are employed
as instructors in the schools, all the
way from Supt. H. S. Youker to those
| in the lowest grades; also Prof. M. III.
Jackson and Miss Eta M. Michaels of
the County Normal and four kinder
garten teachers. Taken as whole,
their countenances express brains,
energy and determination to succeed.
1t certainly speaks well for the city Of
Grand Rapids that they insist upon
employing,only the brightest and best
informed un-tO-date teachers Last,
but by no means least, is the pleasant
countenance Of A. L. FOntaine looking
out from the sheet and there is that
in his face which shows adeep interest
in the work and progress, conclusively,
that it was wise choice when he was
elected president Of the school board.

PurInton Reunion.

Thursday and Friday, August "a and
2S, will 90 down in history as red let
ter days for Lincoln. On these days
came the Purintons from many of the
states and territories Of the Union, and
also from Canada, to meet on the old
homestead of the family, the place
where 100 years ago Chase Purinton,
the progenitor of the family in this
state, settled. The family reunion was
held Thursday near the home Of Mr..
and Mrs. Edison Turner, who now own
the old home farm of the family, and
enjoyed the annual dinner, an occasion
that is one of the brightest and hap
piest in the year for the family.
Friday was public day and the pro-
gram included a basket picnic, par
ticipated in by large number OF the
townspeople. In the afternoon the
exercises were held, chief of which
was the unwilling of a tablet which
marks the spot where Chase Purinton
settled in 1903 and where the first
town meeting, attended by 10 voters,
was held in March, 1898. Mr.. Purin-
ton, whose memory his family hon
ored. was one of Vermont's honored
pioneers. He came with his family
over the hills and mountains from
Weare, n. II. His cows were shod
the same as his horses to protect their
feet, and many indeed were the hard
ships endured. A blacksmith by trade,
he soon set to work after his arrival to
build a gristmill, the very first indus
try in Lincoln. The grinding stones
he quarried himself and fitted with
tools of his own construction. These
stones have been preserved and made
into the tablet that so tittingly perpet-
yates the memory OF the towns first
industry.

Has Serious Objections.

The efforts of Miss Ethel S. Glenn
ent of Rutland TO have and obey omit
ted from the Episcopal marriage cere-
mony upon the occasion OF her marriage
to William H. Field OF New York
next month form the principal topic OF
conversation among Rutland society
people at the present time" says a
correspondent of the Messenger.
Miss Clement is the daughter OF
Percival w. Clement and Mr.. Field is
connected with Munsey's Magazine.
He was until recently business man
ager of the Boston Journal.
1.-The wedding is set for September
and it was supposed that the Rev.
Joseph Reynolds OF the Trinity Epis-
copal church of Rutland, OF which the
Clement family have been leading
members for many years, would per-
form the ceremony, but 1t is apparent
that such will not be the case. Miss
Clement went TO the Rev. Mr.. Rey-
nolds short time ago and asked him
| if he could perform the ceremony with
out using that part of the ritual where
the bride promises TO obey her hus-
band, she stating that she had serious
objections to making any promise OF
that nature.
The Rev. Mr.. Reynolds informed
Miss Clement that he had no authority
to make any alterations whatever in
the marriage service. Miss Clement
communicated with Bishop Hall and it
is understood that he also disclaimed
anv authoritv m make fhp desired
change, or any change at all for that
matter, as an alteration of that kind
could only be made by the national
convention of the Episcopal church,
which is held once in three years.
ut is therefore probable that the
ceremony will be performed by a
clergyman of another denomination
and It is thought that the Rev. DR..
George w. Phillips OF the local Cong'l
church will tie the knot, the parents
of the groom being members of that
church,

Barre, was seriously burned by an ex-
plosion of gasolene Aug. 2s. She was
lighting a stove when an explosion
occurred and her face and hands were

The two-year-old child OF Charles
Naatz of Castleton was badly injured
Aug. % by being struck by an engine.
The engine was returning after help
ing heavy freight over the grade,
when the engineer saw the child crawl
out Of the grass onto the track. He
tried to stop bis engine, but could
not do so in time. The child's foot
was severely injured and its head
badly cut and mouth bruised.
The funeral of Edgar Hubbard, the
young son of Mr.. and Mrs. Carroll
Hubbard of Whiting, was held Aug.

Last week Willie Hight, aged ten
years, and Carroll Marston, nine years
old, were fishing in the river near
West Topsham village. Willie
stepped on a large stone and 1t rolled
over, in some way pinning him under
it. The Marston boy raised Willie's
head out of the water and screamed
for help. He stood up as long as he
could and then sat down in the water.
Il took several men with iron bars and
prys TO move the stone and get the boy
out. He was in the water about 20
minutes and was badly chilled. 1t
was a terrible shock to his nervous
system, but he is able to sit up and it Is
hoped that he will receive no perma-
nent injury. The stone will weigh
about 5000 pounds. A sum Of money
has been contributed by the citizens
for the Marston boy and it is to be
placed in the savings bank.

TRUNK ROBBERS
ARE RUN TO EARTH
NEGRO PORTER AT GADSDEN WAS

KEYS OF THE DEPoT-vETER
ANS MEET.

Gadsden August 15.-(Special)-The
mystery Of the robbery of the Southern
depot has at last been solved by Chief
White, assisted by two detectives of the
road. 1t will be remembered that
drummer's trunk containing corsets, and
a negro school teachers trunk, were
stolen from the Southern depot one night
several weeks ago, and no trace of them
could be found. The officers arrested
dozen negroes, but later released them
for want of evidence. About a week
later the remains of the drummers trunk
were found ON the banks of Town creek.
where the negroes had burned 1t. About
this time the negro school teachers trunk
disappeared from the depot Chief White
and the detectives got on the trail of the
robbers, and after some clever work sue
ceeded in landing Jim Knox, the porter.
in Jail A part of the dresses, wraps and
other wearing apparel of the school
teacher was recovered from where it was
hidden away by the robbers. Jim Knox,
being the porter at the Southern depot,
carried the keys. and after the agent had
left, he gave the word TO his assistants,
who came forward and hauled the trunks
off in their wagon. The officers think
