 The people living in the center of the town were startled on Monday evening at about o'clock when a bolt of cleo Wilson's drug store. It is supposed to have struck a trolley wire or tele- phone pole, as many lights in the v1- cinity were put out of commission, the fuses being burned out.

 Some of our local residents think that if the town had a well developed system of sewerage, the public health would be better. It so happens that measles, diphtheria and scarlet fever are contagious diseases, two of which at least owe their origin to a mfcrobe which has no connection with sewer age. These diseases spread by con- tact and inoculation. The town is as yet too thinly populated to go to the expense of building a costly system of sewers. There might be more drain pipes running into Tanners brook, which is a. natural sewer and could be utilized to drain at least the business section of the town.
