Injured by Dog, /:

Thirty one stitches were required
to close the wounds in the face of
little Charlie Booth of Barre, recently,
after a great st. Bernard dog, owned
by Cyrus Hall, had been driven off
the PROSTATE form. Spectators say
that had not aid come at the time it
did the lad would have lost his life as
the result of the dogs attacks. The
dog was not mad, but ugly.
A Possible New Industry.
Correspondence is going on between
prominent business men of White
River Junction and the proprietor of
a bleachery in Providence, R. l., rela-
tive to the transference of its plant to
White River Junction. Abundance of
water and nearness to a timber region
are the chief things desired by the
firm, and the Junction can meet these
requisites. The company employs a
force of two hundred.
Apples Three Years Old.
Charles P. Sanderson of Milton has
some Jonathan apples which he has
kept three years. Last year while
sorting some apples in his cellar he
discovered these apples in box;
they were not wrapped in papers but
thrown in closely. When Mr.. Sander
Son found them he decided to see how
much longer they would keep and
today they are in perfect condition
and of good flavor.

JoLLYING JOHN BULL.

A "well-known American railroad
expert, according to London cable,
has written an article to tell the Eng
lish how superior is their system of
transportation to the American. He
commends their third-class as ian in
estimable boon for poorer travellers"
and the sleeping cars as cheaper and
more luxurious than in America" :"
These are debatable questions, per-
haps, but when he includes in his
panegyric the luggage system" as
more satisfactory for the public" we
shall have to quarrel with the emf
nent expert.
Any American who has ever under
gone the experience of tipping a por-
ter to put his trunk in the luggage
van" and tipping another to take it
out, and tipping a third to assist the
second in hosting it to the roof of a
"four-wheeler," and got out of the
train at every stop to make sure his
trunk was not put off by mistake, will
wonder wherein the British system is
more satisfactory" To the non-par-
ticipating observer, the confusion at
any large railway station in England,
occasioned by the lack of baggage
checking system, is highly amusing.
Statistics indicate fewer accidents
on British railways and their signal
system is excellent, but even desire
to appear highly courteous does not
excuse one for lauding their unsystem
attic System for the losing of lug
gage.

WHAT IS LEVY FOR?

Columbus, March 14.-What is II
fcS?
The county officials have been
touched hurriedly for big fund.
The reason is not specifically stated
to the contributors, but 1t seems to
be generally understood. 1t may pos.
sibly have tendency to bear the
salary bill market or to bull duosa-
tions or senatorial eloquence on be-
half of an endeared fee graft.
NOTICES SENT.
An auditor of county i'm south.
ern Ohio said Tuesday that he had
been notified last week that his
share" to be contributed to the fund
was $50. A clerk of a county in
northern Ohio was notified that he
was expected to contribute $25.
Both counties are small and the
average per county will be at least
the amount named.
The contributions from the SS coun-
