LEFT THE TRACK.
Forward Wheels of Big Open Trolley Car Off the Rails at North Grosven- ordaIe

About o'clock Thursday morning the trolley line at North Grosvenordalc was cleared after having been blocked for about twelve hours by a big open car that left the rails while rounding curve at a point short distance south of the Tourtei0tte Memorial High school No one was injured in the accident.
 At the time the car was in charge of Webster crew and was north took the curve. Suddenly the front end swerved as the forward trucks left the track and the car plowed striking them with force. The car No. 32, of the large open type, swung clear off the iron and away from the road-bed, only the rear trucks re- maining on the track.
 The smash against the rocks crushed in the forward car end, tore off the running boards and did con- siderable other damage. The car could not be put back on the rails during the night, but this Avas done Thursday morning. the ear being brought down to the car house at Dayville. where 1t will be repaired. The service crew put new forward truck under the car. leaving the old one in the ditch from where it will later be removed.
 Just what caused the accident is a matter of doubt, but after the car was pulled off the forward truck. a broken axle, was discovered, which may have been caused either before or after the wheels left the rails.

THE DAY IS DONE.

THE DAY IS DONE. E.. The day is done and the darkness fslif feaf6nr lfem i the wsftag wlngs of Night From an eagle in his flight. see the lights f.the village Clean through the rain and the mist. And feeling of sadness comes OCT That my soul can not resist. A feeling of sadness and longing, That is not akin to pain, And resembles sorrow only As the mist resembles the rain. Come, read to me some poem Some simple and heartfelt lay, That shall soothe this restless feeling And banish the thoughts of day. Not from. the grand old masters, Not from the bards sublime; Whose distant footsteps echo Through the corridors of time. For, like strains of martia. -orsdc, Their mighty thoughts suggest Llfe's endless toll and endeavor; And tonight I long for rest. Read from some humble poet, Whose songs gushed from his heart,
 
 mer,
 Or tears from the eyelids start: Who through long, days of labor. And nights devoid of case, Still heard in his soul the music Of wonderful melodies Such songs have power to quiet The restless pulse of care And come like the benediction That follows after prqVer Then read from the treasured voHumaA The poem Of thy choice. And lend to the rhyme of the poet The beauty of thy voice. And the night shall be filled with
 music,
 And the cares that infest the day Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs, And as silently steal away.

LYTLE-JoHNsoN MARRIAGE.
Did Not Take Place in Putnam, as Far
 As Clerk FIaeq Knows.


 In an afternoon edition of Bos- ton paper of Thursday was story, under a lurid head line stretching across the full top of the first page to the effect that William Lytle, Jr., of Worcester. son of Colonel Lytle, former member of the governors coun cil in Massachusetts and Miss Thyra Linnea Johnson an artists model. of Worcester, had been married in this city Tuesday.
 The story also stated that Colonel Lytle. upon learning of his sons matrimonial adventure, had ordered him never to darken his door again. T should worry is the way Lytle, Jr, is said to have commented on this. as he prepared to leave with his bride for Detroit, where he is learning the automobile business.
 Town Clerk David F1agg said Thursday afternoon that he has no record of having issued. a license to MT. Lytle and Miss Johnson and search of all marriage licenses is sued by him recetly failed to bring one to light MT. Flagg said he may have issued one without keeping a dupli- cate record and that it may yet be in the hands of a clergyman, but he does not think he did, for he could remember. he Is quite certain,any such young couple for at least as much time as has elapsed since the wedding
 The press despatches of Thursday give young Lytles age as 20, and that of his bride as 19, both of them under age, a fact that by itself alone would have prevented them from securing certificate here without written con- sent of their parents or persons re- sponsible unless they committed per- jury in stating their ages to the town clerk.
