 Frightened and Ran on Railroad |
 Track.
 A peculiar accident that resulted in l the death of fine horse occurred near the Franklin street crossing late Tues day night. The animal killed was the property of H. H. Starkweather, one of matched pair that had been sold and was to have been delivered in Sterling Wednesday morning.
 The horse had been let to Joseph Lamoreaux, who has a saloon on Main street, for the purpose of making de- iveries, and was standing in the rear of the saloon building when it became frightened, climbed the bank and went on to the railroad track, only a few feet distant.
 The animal started down the rail- road, crossed the overhead bridge at Cottage street, walking on the planked space between two of the tracks and had nearly reached Franklin street, when a fast through freight came rushing along after it, struck the wag on and tossed the whole rig off the track, breaking the horses back. To end it's sufferings the horse, which was not badly mangled, was shot just before midnight
 surIey Given Another Chance.
 John Surley. GA, an old time rounder well known to court and jail officials in the county, made such a profound plea that he be released and let go his way that Judge Back favorably considered his case when he was brought into the town court on charge of intoxication Wednesday morning, and gave liberty to the vet eran of many jail sentences. Surley is one of those who lost his work by the stopping of construction on the Grand Trunks extension through southern New England. He had in- tended to go to New Hampshire for work, but said he could not resist the temptation to come here and visit friends. He gave satisfactory evidence that he had been doing as well as he claimed until he reached Danielson, so he was given his prayed-for chance to be off and doing.

 It is understood that a strong ef- | fort will be made to convince the county commissioners that the Dage- nias building is as suitable as any in | Danielson in which to do liquor bus mess. This place has been remon- strated against. The claim ia that it is off Main street, out of the publics way and yet in full sight of any who might wish to see that the law was being obeyed there.
