Met Death in Lamoille River

Ralph Newcity, young man employed
In the local stone sheds, met death in the
Lamoille river, north of the Morrisville
depot, yesterday afternoon shortly after
four o'clock, where he had gone in bath
| ing in company with Harold Cram, who
Is also employed in the sheds The
young man, who had just finished work
and being very warm, had been in the
water but brief period, when he started
toward the shore, saying that he could
not see. he then started back into deep
water and went down a short distance
below the surface, when Joe Weafer,
who was on the bank nearby, jumped
into the water and siezing the struggling
boy by the hair, pulled him to shore.
More help had arrived by this time and
the victim was rolled on a barrel, until
the arrival of DR.. Geo. L. Bates, who
got there few minutes later. The body
was worked over by the doctor and many
assistants for nearly three hours, but to
NJ avail and at about seven o'clock the
body was taken in charge by undertaken
Geo. W. Doty. 1t is thought that death
was due to the shock, caused by enter
ing the water when in a heated condition,
as very little water was found in the
lungs.
The deceased was born in this town IS
years ago last March, being oae of several
children of Sidney Newcity of this village.
His mother died several years ago and
the surviving members of the family are
the father, two brothers, Clifton of New
York, Max of Lowell, Mass, and one
sister, Mrs. Clarence Jones of Morrsville
The funeral will be held tomorrow
morning at 10 O'Clock, from the home of
the father on Bridge Street, Rev. V. NJ.
Hardy officiating. The bearers will be
chosen from the stone shed employees.
Interment will be in the Cady's Falls
cemetery.
The deceased was a young man of ex-
emplary habits and very we'll thought of
in the community. The bereaved family
have the sympathy of all in their great
affliction.

Foot Cut Off by Moving Machine

Last Monday morning, at about $50, a
shocking accident occurred at the Smit h
& Tillotson farm just above Dorchester
Heights. Raymond Darrah, who has
charge of the farm, was moving in a
| field near the house and had been around
several times, told his little six year old
son. William, who had been running along
behind the machine to go to the house.
Shortly after, as Mr. Darrah was turning
the horses around to cut into pointed
piece, the little boy, in some unaccount-
able way, got in front of the cutter bar,
which protruded some distance from
the grass and the end of the knife struck
the right leg of the little fellow, COM
pletely severing the member just above
the ankle. DaYid Brown and Lee Tilot-
son were soon on the spot and assiste
in getting the injured boy to the house,
B. +. browne, who was assisting Mr.
Brown in a field nearby, having started
for physician. Drs. W. T. Slayton and
w. NJ. JohnstOne arrived in about half an
hour and dressed the member, making
the little sufferer as comfortable as pos
slble. Willie underwent the ordeal
bravely and is now thought to be doing
as we'll as could be expected.
The accident, which has MANNED the
little fellow for life, is particularly regret
able, but was one of those unavoidable
occurrences for which no blame can be
to anyone. The parents. as well
as the little sufferer, have the sincere
sympathy of the community.

From the New York World.
So long as the privileges of their
own class were not tempered with, the
lords proved willing partners in So
cialistic measures. They were ready
to aid in the creation of more num-
erous privileged class on condition
that they were let alone. They fond
ly imagined that they were fortifying
themselves and the tory party, of
which they are the standing ally, in
the affections of the British people,
But a huge annual deficit was made
inevitable by sweeping social reforms
such as these and by the frenzy of
militarism and clamor for more Dread
naughts which lingo agitators con-
trived to arouse at the sight of Ger
many's war preparations. The chan
cellor of the exchequer was called on
to raise $80,000,00O of additional taxes.
But the moment he stretched out I'M
feeling hands toward the wealth and
property of the country and proposed
to raise a small part of the national
revenues by taxing the peers land,
they rose like one man in frantic re-
volt. Lloyd-George was a Jack Cade
who sought to sack the citadel of Brit
ish society. His scheme was pure So
cialism and the house Of lords stood
as the nations sole defense against

board of charities.
The last general assembly failed to
provide maintenance appropriation
for the new tuberculosis sanitarium,
which has been erected by the state
near Rockville.
Should the state board of charities
deem it desirable, the money would be
sufficient to open the hospital and
maintain it until the next legislature
can make an appropriation.
