low them to consider. They thought
not Of the value OF the human lives
which were in care Of the railroad.
Neither did they think Of the fortunes
which their act might impose upon the
scores Of passengers who were in no
way party to their ill-feeling. Their
one thought was to get even with the
railroad, and that idea precluded all
chance of sane reasoning. So blinded,
they went ahead and planned their Graf
ty scheme to wreck the train The plan
worked successfully from the standpoint
Of the wrcckers, and, strangely enough,
not single life was lost and, indeed,
no one was injured. But that was little
short OF miraculous. Probably no SINH
lar experience could be undergone with.
out untoward results.
However, the fact that no lives were
lost does not lessen the seriousness Of
the Intent Of the wreckers, and for that
reason there should be no let-down in
the efforts to run down the guilty par,
ties. Not long since there was another
attempt TO wreck train, near North
Bennington, and the plan in that case
was similar to the Bolton crime Let
the idea become generally known that
train wrecking cannot be tried with i'm.
punity. And to that end let the most
searching efforts be put forth to run
down the participants in this Bolton cpl.
sode.

Our attention has been called
by one of our local physicians to
a crying need of the country trib-
utary to Dickinson. Called pro-
fessionally a long distance into
the country. the doctor could find
no sign-b> ards to direct him and
no one who could tell himin what
direction his patient resided. The
result Mas he took the wrong road
and drove twenty-five miles out
of his way, consuming time that
might have proved fatal to the
patient. In the immediate vicin-
ity of Dickinson, sign-boards are
not so much needed although they
would be a great convenience, but
further out they are almost a
necessity. At present.. there
would seem to be no way to get
at the matter better than for indi-
viduals to interest themselves and
see that the proper directions are
given at interesting roads near
their property. There would be
no expense and but little labor
and great convenience to the
travelling public.

Frightened the Bride to Death.

Frightened the Bride to Death,
In the Church Of CHRISTIAN at Pisek,
In Bohemia, a marriage was about to
be solemnized between Anna Roslin,
aged nineteen, and a youth Of her
choice. Bride and bridegroom stood all
ready before the altar, where were
lighted tapers. Before the priest could
unite the bridal pair one Of the tapers
became suddenly extinguished. A loud
shrek came from the bride, and she
gasped, "Meine kerze list erloschen!''
('My taper is extinguishedr1 and sank
unconscious into the arms Of the BRIDE
groom. Immediately all attention was
turned to the condition Of the bride.
Several attempts were made to revive
the poor girl, but IN vain. The bride.
in her chaplet and veil, died at the al
tar rails. The superstition Of the VII
lagos Of the plain is that II a lighted
taper becomes extinguished on either
side Of the altar the person standing
on that side Of the altar where the light
went out viii suffer dire calamity

that the brave soldier dead should
seem to be unremembered by a

taught by the yearly!gathering on

call to mind the principles for
which they fought and died, while

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Don't waste your time in longing
For bright, impossible things;
Don't sit supinely yearning
For the s~wiftness of angel wings;
Don't spurn to be a rushlight,
Because you are not a star;
But brighten some bit of darkness
BY shining just where you are"
This weary world has been waiting
patiently for many centuries for men
and women to rise to the immediate
occasions and give their hest just where
they are, like the flower born to blush
unseen, perhaps, but giving forth its
sweetness for the CHANGING passer.by
or for its maker alone. You doubtless
cannot do much but God asks you to
let him do for you, and if you submit
to his care he will place you SO that
like the little mirror-be it ever so lit
tle-you will catch the sunlight of his
boundless love and reflect it upon your
surroundings. The Sunday services are
held in order to help you in this way.
Therefore don't miss them. and be
sure to attend the half hour song
service at 300 p. m. The morning
service will begin at 1870 during the
summer months.

Memorial services at the Congrega.
tional church last Sunday night by an
audience completely filling the audito-
rum and the annex. One large flag
draped the pulpit stand upon which were
also vases of carnations, and a small flag
hung over the choir window. The sing
ing was congregational, led by a male
quartet. Following is the program:

Benediction.
The congregational singing was some
thing inspiring as everyone seemed to
sing SO heartily. The sermon talk was
on the text, "Render unto Caesar the
things that are Caesars.
Caesar signifies civil government. All
civil governments exist by the right and
might Of the higher law to ensure good
order and to maintain the perpetuity Of
all civil rights belonging to the people,
Patriotism is love of country. The bard
of Avon sang this grand refrain:
"Breathes there d. mar with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said
This is my own, my native land?
Whose heart hath ne'er within him
burned /.
As home his footsteps he hath turned
From wandering on a foreign strand?
If such there be, go, mark him we'll;
For him no minstrel raptures swell;
High though his title, proud his name
Boundless his wealth as wish could claim
Despite his titles, power and pelf,
The wretch, ~concentered all in self
Living, shall forfeit fair renown;
And doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust from whence he sprung
Unwept, unhonored and unsung."
Patriotism is the supreme proof Of
good citizenship. From the humblest
citizen to the most exalted statesmen, in
private and public life, through times oil
peace or periods of war, the supreme
test of citizenship is unalloyed patriotism
The speaker paid a glowing tribute to
the soldiers of the nation who have ded.
icated their lives to maintain the honor
and life of our great republic. A touch
ing account was given of the new man
ner OF decorating the graves of dead
sailors buried at sea by the launching Of
flower ships and strewing loose flowers
over the waves, so that once a year in
foreign ports and home harbors and
from our battleships and merchantmen
in all climes, honors are paid our de.
ceased brave tars.
A tender word was spoken concerning
the thinning ranks of the old soldiers
year by year. At this point, the whole
audience arose and stood in silence with
bowed heads saluting the dead, then the
salute to the hagwas given with a will
The male quartet, composed of Messrs
Allen. Thompson, Vinnedge and Currie
