Sheriff J. A. Dawson. who went to
1oston Thursday afternoon.
The charge against Smith is very
serious one. A short time ago he was
employed by f. II. Miner, who was
then conducting portable saw mill
at Getchell's Corner in Vassalboro.
Miner was saving lumber for G. STAN
ey Reynolds of this city. The trouble
lrose between Smith and his employer,
Miner. and it is claimed that to avenge
himself Smith tempered with the gov
,rnor of the engine, so that when IT
was started the next morning, the gov
ernor failing to work, the machinery
went to pieces and endangered lives.
Smith then left this vicinity.
Smith was located in Boston, having
engaged himself on a vessel plying be-
tween Newport News and Boston.
When he arrived in Boston after the
receipt of the notification from this
city, he was arrested and held for the
local officers. He will be, given hear
ing today.

The Years Renefaetions.

The year now closing sees all rec ords broken in the amount of money given in benefactions. During the 12 months S141, 1,250,0O0 has been given away. being some $40.000, ,000 more than the best previous years record. The late John H. Kennedy of New York, whose will was a model in carefully planned philanthropy, heads the list of large givers. He gave S26.5JO,000. John D. Rockefeller is second on the list with 1852, 900 to his credit
 There is satisfaction in such a rec ord. Of course, it will be argued that men would be happier and better pro- vided for were the rewards for en- deavor better distributed. They would not be in so much need of benefac- tions of the wealthy were industry or ganized on a fairer basis. But condi- tions being as they are. and as they are likely to remain for sometime to come. it is well that those who receive the Hons share of the reward should acknowledge the duty of distributing some of their surplus possessions among the less fortunate.-cleveland Plain Dealer.

AnnarsI and inc Man.

A clergyman. discoursing in Phiiadel- phia upon the important topic of Choosing husband" advised his fem mine hearers that they should look asl5ance at men who display fastidious refinement and elegance in their attire. He dwelt upon the relatively greater importance of moral excellence over sartorial appearance. That advice may be accepted by the damsels of his flock so far as it goes. but the teacher of youth may fall into error in emphasiz- ing too much the superiority of inward virtue to outward appearance. Assur- edly,there is nothing essentially praise worthy in slovenly attire. nor does vie- iousness enjoy a monopoly of purple and fine linen. Those who claim to have souls above the tailor and who look upon those who devote need of attention to attire as prone to worldli- ness. may profit by a little self-exam- ination. It may be that indolence is one cause of their disregard of affairs sartorial.
 Nothing can be more certain than that shabbiness is not an external evi- dence of inward superiority in either intellect or soul. The unkempt eXteri- or is not a sign of inward grace or stalwart mind. Cleanliness may be next to godliness, but it fails to bear its testimony if hidden beneath rags Washington Herald.

PEST OF RABBITS
Doing Much Damage in Parsss of Wa
 terbury.


 Supt Of Parks George Walker has decided that in order to preserve the young trees that thave been planted in Hamilton park during the past three or four years from being ruined some thing will have to be done at once 10 clean out the hundreds of rabbits which this year infest the park, says the Waterbury Republican.
 There have been several hundred maple and birch saplings planted drives and promenades. but the great CT number of these have been killed by the rabbits, which when there is deep snow can get nothing else to subsist on but the bark of these young trees. The naples suffer most, as their bark is sweet and soft.
 Last winter a great many of the trees were destroyed, but since the last big snow there has been thrice as much damage done. The rodents can't get at the winterSreen berries and the small winter shoots which are buried from one to six feet under the snow and which they would feed on natural
 There is a heavy fine for hunting fin any. of the city parks and the rabbits at Hamilton park have increased with an amazing rapidity. They breed about every nine weeks. and there are from six to ten in each litter, and the young ones commence to breed at the age of six to nine months. Near the ruins of the Ol0 brass nlll Llefe arc a nuulDef of large piles of cut brush into which the rabbits run and there is no use sending ferret in after them.
 The Hamilton park wild rabbits are cross between the native wild rab- bit and the Belgian hare. A number of the latter escaped from a warren in the vicinity, and the cross is one of the swiftest and most shy of the rab- bit family. The only way it would ap- pear to get rid of the pests is by the use of snares and dead falls. or by shooting-but such is against the state statute as it now stands.
