Sad Hccident in Weybridge.

On Monday afternoon, Nicholas Fer
dinandiz, a Cuban, who lived at Luther
Roscoes just outside of Middlebury, was
kicked in the face by colt and died
an hour afterwards, the kick resulting
in fracture at the base of the brain,
Ferdinandiz had led the colt, which
was spirited animal, to water and
held the halter stale near the end. Just
as the colt finished drinking, Ferdinan-
diz waved his hand to Alexander
Hamilton, who was passing on the
road close at hand, when the colt sud
denly wheeled and kicked him, strik-
ing him in the face. Mr.. Hamilton at
once hurried to his aid and with his
assistance, Ferdinandiz was able to walk
to the house. He bled profusely at the
nose, but aside from cut near the
mouth and swollen nose, no marks
were discovered on him. He COM
planned however of a severe pain in his
head.
Upon reaching the house medical aid
w 10 dN OllCt iOOOH dlltT
Ferdinandiz went into convulsions and
was unconscious until he died. Appar-
emily the doctor was not aware how
badly the boy was injured, and he was
not able to help him much. Along
towards the last, the discharge from
Ferdinandiz nose assumed a brickish red
color, thought to be occasioned by brain
substance. a telegram was at once sent
to Rev. deBarrett. who was in Boston,
arrived here Tuesday.
Ferdinandiz was one of the several
Cubans who came here two years ago
to obtain an American education and
who were taken by various families in
this vicinity. Nearly all Of them are
to return to Cuba soon and Ferdinandiz
told the writer on the morning of the
day of his death that he expected to go
back next week. He was a cheerful and
happy fellow and a good worker. Ing
terment was in the Weybridge cem9-
terry.

Laid to Rest.

Funeral services were held over the
remains Of the late Silas Surprise at St.
Mary's church on Friday at nine o'clock
the Rev. j. d. Shannon officiating. The
funeral cortege consisting of a detail of
men from Addison Court, Catholic Order
Of Foresters of which the deceased was
the presiding officer, a detail from the
Father Daley Council, Knights of Column
bus and the entire force of the editorial
and mechanical departments of the
Register company preceded the remains
from Mr.. Surprises late home on Court
street to the church.
Upon the conclusion of the mass. con-
trary to the usual custom of this church,
the Rev. J. D.Shannon paid the dead man
a most touching tribute, speaking in
eloquent terms of the loyalty of Mr..
Surprise to his friends and fellow men
and referring especially to particularly
strong trait of character that MIR. Sur
prise had shown under every and all
circumstances, that of the courage of his
convictions.
The attendance upon the occ aston
showed the esteem in which the dead
man was held, not alone by his church
people, among whom he was particularly
respected, by the townspeople, irrespec-
tive of creed or social distinction.
The funeral arrangements were under
the direction of Geo. A. Goyett, and
the bearers were: f. p Seymour, Cyril
Brunelle, Bruno Lacroix, Geo. T. Kidder,
T. p. Burns, and p. f. Dillon. At the
grave Father Shannon was assisted by
Father Vezina of Shoreham. The inter-
ment was made in the Catholic
cemetery.

Collese N otes,

The students from the Bay State met
in the college chapel last Tuesday after.
noon to take steps towards forming a
Massachusetts club. After considerable
delberatlon and discussion (for the
students from Massachusetts are all long
wlDded) they decided to draw up con-
stitution and perfect permanent organ
ization. Miss Blake and Messrs. Shana-
han and Coates were elected as a COM
mlttee to draw up constitution. 1t is
understood that this club will first ap-
peared in society on the day when they
will celebrate the Battle of Lexington.
AS these state clubs are in style now it is
probable that the students from New
Hampshire will organize a society and
they will be followed by the sturdy sons
of Vermont. New York state is so
poorly represented that there will
probably be no attempt on their part to
form society

the students and gave them heart to

conducted by Walter Maggs. A COM
mittee of three consisting of Holt,
Roberts and McQuivey were elected to
nominate the officers for the coming
year.
