A LIVELY SCHOOL MEETING

A lively school meeting was helt Thursday evening in the Center dis trict and 76 of the 1O3 voters who were there registered their protest agains, carrying out the vote of two weeks ago and thus visions of S16, 900 brick school building vanished and a new committee appointed are looking for 6 site to erect temporary three room school house. Increase of taxes to $ total of over B mills was considered unwarrantable at this time and was the chief objection to carrying out the vote of the former meeting. Many think parochial school will be opened in years time, in fact is promised by Father Lofts, and then the contention is that the district will know better it's needs in providing accommodations AS even temporary building, proper ly equipped, cannot possibly be con- structed before the beginning of the winter term, 1t is still problem what to do with the 75 or more pupils who will present themselves for tuition in the primary room when school opens in September. Two three and half hour sessions 8 day has been mentioned with different pupils for each session and two teachers, one for each set of pupils.

SERIOUS RESULTS OF THE ONION
 BLIGHT.

Reports from nearly every quarter ot the onion growing district show that the crop of 1906 is we'll nigh ruined by the blight entailing loss to thefarmers of this locality amounting to several thousands of dollars. The growing of the onion crop requires more labor, and perhaps a greater expenditure of money, than all other field crops con- bined. The cost of preparing the soil, the outlay for seed and fertilizers and the almost continuous cultivation of the crop, to say nothing of harvesting, leaves at it's best only a small margin of profit to the grower. This year the weather conditions were all right up to a certain period when the excessive humidity of the atmosphere was seen to be affecting the plants and the work of devastation began. Many pieces will hardly pay for the cost of pulling and the farmers who must face the situation from a financial standpoint: .are greatly disheartened over the result.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT TO MARTIN LEN
 NINGs AT HOYDEN's HILL.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT TO MARTIN JEN- NINGs AT HOYDEN's HILL.
 A very painful and most distressing accident happened to Martin Jennings of the Hoyden's Hill district, last Sat- urday. which will disable him for many weeks and may perhaps render him a cripple for the remainder of his life. MT Jennings was seated on hay rake raking hay in nearby field when the horse stepped into a hornets nest and aroused the indignation of the little pests. It required but few stings of the infuriated little animals to terror ize the horse and it began jumping and kicking viciously. MT Jenning was thrown from his seat landing directly behind the horses flying heels. He received a vicious kick on the leg which badly fractured the kneepan be- sides breaking and slivering both bones below the knee. A physician was at once sent for, who, upon ascertaining the extent of the injury, advised his removal to the Bridgeport hospital. He was taken to the above named institution where it is feared his leg may have to be amputated at the knee joint.
