 America.

You Americans eat too much |; you rush too hard; you work too hard {; you play too hard; you are too much concerned with the almighty dollar; you are wearing yourselves out, and when I come back here in 1859 to inn part new truths to you, I will be the youngest man in America"

Coroner Bill Investigates Case of In-
 fanticide-Mother Testifies in Irre-
 sponsibte Way.
 Coroner Arthur G. Bill of Danielson came to this city Tuesday morning Wlhf his stenographer, and with Med formed an autopsy upon the body of the female infant found Monday after noon in George H. PatenaudeS cellar, on Pleasant street, at the undertaking was fully developed, and the case is one Of infanticide. In addition to the apron string wound around the neck three times, there was piece of cloth about two inches wide tied about the neck and knotted tightly in the back, so that it cut into the flesh, and this caused strangulation, it is believed A minute examination of the lungs show ed that the child had lived after birth; the heart was normal and the muscular development was excellent. The au- topsy showed that the infant was not entirely dead when the stone was placed upon it's head in the cellar or that the apron string and strip of cloth were tied quickly about the neck at about the same moment that the in fant was buried, as there was sufficient heart action to force blood to the head. Dr. Mason stated that it was impossible to tell just how long the child had iiv- ed after it was born. but that it was certain that the organs had performed their functions before death, and that it was improbable that it had strangIed to death before it was placed beneath the stone in the cellar. He gave his opinion that it was a case of infanti- eide.
 Coroner Billt held an inquest at the police station in the afternoon at 1-30 o'clock, and examined the mother, and George Patenaude.
 At the conclusion of the same Coron- CT Bill stated that the woman had not denied killing the child, but had given her reason for doing so that she al ready had one child a year and a half old and that she paid $3 a week for it's keep. As she only earned $4 per week, she could rot possibly take care of an-' other. and that she did not want the people with whom she was employed to know about the matter. Coroner Bill said that the case had been turned over to Prosecuting Attorney E. Frank Bugbee. and that In all probability he would have Mrs. Parker arraigned in police court this morning for a prelin- mary hearing.
 From the statements of the coroner it is a plain case of infanticide. He said that the Parker woman was very ilIiterate. and can neither read nor write. She could not even tell dates, and depended largely upon a rather nOor InennrY.

Johns Letter.

That two-for-a-cent comet, with 3
rabbits tail, seems to have caused more
talk than it is entitled to. If HALEY can
not do better job than that he should
turn his attention to something else.
WHY any one should have fears Of 1t is
beyond our comprehension. We see by
the papers that one or two have looked
upon it and died without struggle or a
groan. Very weak heart or head or
something. evidently. Should q comet
switch its tail in your face 1t would hard
" knock you down If you are strong on
the legs and were we'll braced. We
think 80, but have had no means of
knowing.
We remember seeing comet once on a
time that was worth while. There has
been some dispute in what year 1t ap-
pesred. Some say in 1880, but We know
that it was in the fall OF 1858. We look
ed upon 1t from sick bed in Kentucky
in that year. 1t hung around for weeks,
displaying a really respectable tail. d.
d. saws that he doesn't remem Der the
year, but he was attending Hebron
Academy at the time, and we received a
letter from him and sister while there.
We will put it down as 1858 for sure.
Memorial Day has come and gone
leaving behind in this town that which
is pleasant to recall. The speaker was
from Kent's Hill, by the name OF Pack
ard, a young man, boy in appearance,
hardly twenty, but his Grafton was the
Grafton of q man in the prime OF life.
He captured us all. We prophecy q
bright future for the boy! It was q
pleasant sight to see the little ones scat
teriug flowers upon the waters for the
graves that are somewhere under the
waters. The veterans who marched
were fewer in numbers than the sons
of veterans, of which there were about
thirty. An excellent dinner was served
in the vestry of the Baptist church.
The band from Turner did itself honor,
and won praise. "Billy and Phon" with
fiie and drum made our toes Jingle az
