Enoineer Startled the Town.

The noon whistle at the plant of the Windham Silk company blew an hour ahead of time Tuesday. Engineer Fred w. Demong had been busily engaged in reading the account of the shooting of Theodore Roosevelt, and, glancing up at the clock, noticed that it was five minutes of. He got up and start ed in to bank his fires a bit, and when the hand pointed to the hour shut off the power and blew what he supposed was the noon whistle. but it proved to be but II o'clock.
 He was soon aware of his error, however, as he received a quick noti fication from the main office. The ear ly blast of the whistle threw a few of the employees of the plant into state of confusion, for one young lady, Miss Hanover, thought it was signal that a fire had broken out, and tainted at her work. She was quickly revived, however, and was able to perform her work in the afternoon. A number on the street heard the whistle and pull ing out their watches started in won der and listened to hear the other fac tory whistles and gongs, but soon re- alized that something was wrong, and consulted regulators to see if their re- liable timepieces had gone wrong.
