Death Of Young Man in state prison.

William J. Dempsey, p years old, a
former Greenfield, Mass, boy, was taken
to Greenfield Monday by his father from
the Vermont state prison at Windsor,
where the son died Sunday night of
tubercular meningitis. 1t is said that
pardon from Governor Bell arrived at
the state prison short time before the
young mans death, but he was too weak
to be moved.
The young man was convicted about
five years ago, together with James
WEIGH and Charles Blake, Of making an
assault an John w. Houghton, an aged
man in Guilford At the trial it was
shown that young Dempsey had fired
the bullet which wounded Mr.. Houghton.
All three We're boys when the assault
was committed all of them living in
Greenfield. They had been reading bad
literature, WEIGH and Blake were par
doned from the prison some time ago.
The record Of young Dempsey was
good while he was in the prison, and lie
had written letters which had been
published in the papers, expressing re-
greet for the crime committed as a boy,
and warning other boys against such a
course.

Rural Delivery and sobrietY.

A Milwaukee man asserts that in adj.
dition to the other benefits which rural
free delivery of mails has conferred upon
dwellers in the small country towns, it
has exerted a noteworthy influence as a
temperance agent. In the old times, he
says, when the men folks went down to
the store to get the mail, the store us
ually sold liquor, and they were likely
to linger and swap gossip and take few
drinks-or in some cases great many
before driving back to the farm. Now,
when the mail Is delivered at the farm,
the usual practice il to sit down and
read the paper the first thing after sup
per, and when Mr.. Farmer has finished
that pleasing task he is usually ready
to 80 to bed.
