ALL is WELL.

West Burke, Aug. 6.-The excite.
ment which ATTENDED the recent elope-
ment and marriage of two West Burke
girls and two actors who were tenn
porarily sojourning here has almost
died out, and at present each couple is
living together by consent of parents
on both sides. 1t has been reported
that both Mr.. Strong and Mr.. Gran
dali had left town but this is untrue
as they have been away but one night
since the romantic wedding. Mrs.
Bradford Crandall of New York came
to investigate her sons part i'll the
affair and after consulting with the
Colby family it was decided to let the
young actor have his bride. Mrs.
Strong, mother of the other thespian,
came from Northampton, Mass. and
after an interview with Mr.. Silsby' s
people similar arrangement was
made. 1t has been learned that both
young men are from good families and
friendly relations have been estab-
lished all around.

LAMP Exploded.

No. 10 of the fire alarm boxes was
rung in on Saturday about o'clock
in the evening Mrs. Ella Bly,, who
resides in an upper back tenement in
the j. j. Williams block ON Main
street, had procured some gasoline
thinking it was kerosene and had filled
lamp with the same. In short
time she lighted the lamp and not
long after an explosion occurred. Some
of the neigbhors seeing the blaze
rushed in and threw blankets and
water on the fire aud with the use of
an extinguisher from Cross bakery
soon put it out before outside services
were needed. The "all out was rung
in as soon as possible and not many
had gathered at the place. The only
damage done was the burning of a
tablecloth and slight charming of one
wall of the room.

SOLDIERS MAD.

Lebanon, N. H., Aug. S.-The
batteries on practice march from
Fort Ethan Allen arrived here last
evening and will remain over Saturday
to load rations from White River
Junction, The trip has been disa
greeable owing to the inclenAncy of
the weather. The camping grounds,
so far, are as good as could be asked
for. The route has been somewhat
changed in regard to stopping places.
The following stops were made in
Vermont: Bolton, Barre, Randolph
and Sharon. The horses are all hold
ing out well. The camps are we'll
filled at each stopping place with
sight-seers, who are extended all
courtsies and are given the freedom
of the camp.
Several of the Vermont papers have
had an item to the effect that the SOL
diers behaved in disgraceful manner
at Barre, robbing stores and commit
ting other acts of depreciation. Such
stories are untrue and are only the
make up of people known as town
gossips. At Barre the weather was
very disagI eeable and very few sol
diers were on the streets The men
of the battalion are all very highly
indignant over the affair.
