Randall Post, being unable to finance
the total cost Of this, or any suitable
design, now calls upon the citizens Of
Woodstock and all others interested tC
help out the project.
The Post, by strict economy, has
aved from time to time by small sums
and now has on deposit for this pur'
pose $300.00, which sum they propose
10 subscribe, conditioned only that al
least the total amount pledged shall
equal or exceed $2500.

THE FIRST BIG STORM

The first big snow storm of the
season which came Friday, Feb, 9,
was joy and relief to the travellers
who had been pounding over the
frozen roads in wagon as well as to
the business world in general; also
it brought smiles to the snow shov-
elers and snowshoers. 1t was more
like the conditions that the calendar
called for.
Twelve or thirteen inches Of snow
fell in Woodstock and the pulp
teams and wood and lumber indus
try which had been waiting for a
show took brace at once. There
was not much wind, so there was
nothing to interrupt shedding opera
tons.
Barnard, it was reported, caught
IS inches of snow,
20 INCHES AT MoNTPELIEE.
Montpelier and the upper Wi
nooski valley was buried under one
of the heaviest snow storms in re-
cent years.
Snow began falling shortly after
daylight Friday morning and before
six o'clock at night the new snow
measured 20 inches, a tall almost
unprecedented for ten years.
Twenty inches or more tell at
Randolph, and Stowe reports a SINH
lar fall.

ADVENTURES WITH LIONS.
Big Beasts Are Frequently Encount
cred by Man in South Africa.

From South Africa: News is to HAND
from two independent sources of an ex-
traordinary adventure that recently befell
Mr.. Dickert, a farmer living some fifteen
miles from Malindi Siding. on the Wan
kies line. Mr.. Dickert went to bed az 10
o'clock, and was just going to sleep when
he heard what he thought was a pig grunt-
ing and shifting outside the door. He
got up and stepped outside to call his dogs,
when he was seized by a Ion. He shouted,
and Mrs. Dickert ran out with a rife,
with which she hit the animal on the head,
causing 1T to loose its hold.
Mr.. Dickert Immediately snatched at the
rifle and fired, point blank. fortunately
killing the lion at the first shot. The whole
affair was over in a few seconds, and &C.
Cured close to the bed room door, where
the hungry animal had evidently been
waiting. Mr.. Dickert was badly scratched
and had his arm lacerated where the lion
seibed him.. Though sufficiently serious
at the time, he now looks upon the ad-
venture as one of the most novel of his ex-
periences.
The people at Malindi Siding have been
annoyed by a lion that developed the habit
of coming right up to the station and was
heard in the neighborhood OF the railway
mems houses. A short time ago the con-
ductor Of the Fl, lis train and several of the
passengers saw two young lions playing
between the rails near the Gwaai.
Further up the line. in the direction OF
the Zambesi, the ions appear to be much
more numerous. Not long Since the native
commissioned at Matetsi Is reported to
have had fifteen head OF live stock killed
In broad daylight by nine lions which were
hunting together.
Quite lately two or three ions have been
seen close to the Victoria Falls, on TIE
south side of the river. bur. ror the reas-
surance OF visitors, IL may be mentioned
hat they only appeared at night and were
exceedingly shy OF any human being.

Charging the Jury.

From the st. Louis be-Democrat.
Senator Clay tells of a negro who
vas elected a justice of the peace in
Georgia during reconstruction times,
His first case was one where the de-
PENDANT asked for a trial by jury. The
negro justice presided with great dig
nifty while the witnesses were exam
ined and the lawyers summed up.
Then e~verybodv waited for him to
charge the jury. He did not know what
to do. Finally a friendly lawyer leaned
over the bench and said:
Charge the jury! This is the time
TO charge the jury"
The justice arose and looked at the
jury.
Gentlemen OBJ de jury" he said, dis
yer's a mighty small case, an I'll only
charge all you a dollar an a half
apiece"
