Three Acre Field in Limits of Ben

Because of the late spring, the
drouth in the early summer and the
killing frosts during tho present
month the corn crop in the northern
section of the state is reported TO
be a partial, and in some localities,
q complete failure Such however,
has not been the case in Bennington
and vicinity where there are mum

one Of the best fields of corn that
has been gown in this vicinity in
years is being harvested by George
II, Moore and son l.. +. Moore on
the Moore farm on the southern
line Of the village The cop is not
vet all in the crib but enough has
been husked TO prove conclusivelJ
that the yield will be all if no. more
than loO bushels of shelled corn to

Roughly measured the field com

The hills were planted ) IL feet
each way and there were 50 rows

In many respects the season was
not particularly good one for corn.
Early in June there wee two nights
on which there were hard frosts,
but the corn was not killed. Al thai
time it was three or four inches high
and the chill gave it set back but
it began growing in few days and
progress was rapid fC the remain

found their way into the corn and
gave the rows on oneede of the field

rows recovered and the yield IN ,his

that taken from the remainder OF
the piece. although the @ was not
quite so much first grade corn. The
rows that were trimmed by the
cattle were first harvested and pro

FARM BUILDINGS IN

DESTROYED
Twenty Buildings Burned Loss
of $4,000
NO INSURANCE ON PROPERTY
Property Was Owned by Nathan
Case and Fire Caught from
EnsiIaee Engine.

Twenty farm buildings owned by
Nathan Case and situated one and
cne-half miles west of Hoosick Falls,
were destroyed by fire which broke
out Saturday afternoon shortly after
o'clock The loss on buildings and
contents is close to $4,000 and Mr.
Case does not carry any insurance.
Mr Case and a helper were engag
ed in hlling large silo, using a
steam engine to aid them. Coal was
being used as fuel but The supply
gave cut and il was found necessary
t. use wood.
Tho workers neglected to close
The hood OF the engine smokestack

the COW barn, situated nearby, and
il was but few minutes before the
building was in flames. Mr.. Case
and his assistant were working in
the silo and had a narrow escape

the fire communicated with the silo.
Mr.. Case is a well known horse
man and brocdel and in barn to
which the flames next jumped six
valuable horses were te,hercd. II
was with difficulty that the animals
were rescued. There were no fire
fighting facilities and it was but a
matter OF minutes when two large
buildings used for storage and the
Case homestead, measuring 35x66
feet wee in flames. The dwelling
was two stories high with a large ex-
tension and it burned SO rapidly thai
there was scant time TO rescue any
thing besides a few articles of cloth
ing and several pieces OF furniture.
While Mr. Case and neighboIs
stood watching the ravaging flames
helpless to stop The fires spread,
fourteen smaller buildings in which
were housed hogs, grain. wood, har.

The heat was so great that specta-
tors were driven to considerable dis
tances.

Hoosick Falls most Iiominent CHI

barns to shelter his live stock, and
added that they could be kept There.

TIardwick, Sept. rs. Roy Cheney
of this village is in the lIardwiCk
hospital tonight with bullet wound
in his neck near the juglar vein and
his attractive wife, who confesses
that she shot her husband early this
NC ming, is in the Caledonia county
Jail at ST. Johnsbury.
Choney's chances are considered
slight. If he can stand the journey
tomorrow he will be taken to Bur
lngton where an attempt will be
made TO eXlrac, the bullet which
was fred from Il 32-calibre automatic
pistol.
The wife, Elizabeth Lynch Cheney
claims, j. is said, that during an al.
terCltion ovd' another woman she
shot her husband 1t is alleged that
quarrels were frequent between
Cheney and his wife.
Mrs. Cheney returned here Satur-
day from Il three weeks stay in
Newport r. l., and accompanied he'
husband tC his apartments. 1t was
supposed that there had been re
Cancellation but early this morning
the quarrel was renewed.
The details of the shooting are
not known though Mrs. Cheney ac-
knowledges that she bathed her
husbands wounds and called two
physicians.
Mrs Cheney is a domestic nurse
and nc. husband is "A carriage and

Shortly after the arrival of the
physicians Chief OF Police S. w.
Powers was notified Within a few
minutes he arrived and placed Mrs.
Cheney undei arrest. She express
ed no sorrow and her only regret, ey
pressed after she was taken TO
Jail. was that she did not have a
spare bullet in the pistol for he self
as she had intended to have.
An examination of the injured
man showed that in addition TO the
bullet hole in his neck there are
wounds on his head, one arm and on
The breast.
DR.. John b. Wheeler of Burlington
was called here 10 operate upon Che
ney but it has been decided to wait
a few hours in hope the injured man
can be taken to that city.
Cheney is 80 yG-Ts old and his
wife is about the same age. Though
their family affairs have been dis
cussed more or less by those ac
quainted with the Cheneys no one
believed that the woman would re-
sort to such measures as she con
fesses she did.

saving the life of Thomas Higgins. son
of Mr.. c. v. Higgins, of this city. a
machinist in the employ Of the Louis
Vile and Nashville railroad. Higgins
was employed at the round house in
the south yards IN repairing a brake
shoe on one of the largest patterns of
freight locomotives used on the road
and was beneath the huge engine with
his head resting OIL a rail between two
drivers. From some unknown cause
the engine moved forward "a few
incnes and stopped, but enough to pin
ion Higgin head betwee then wheel
and rail. His calls for help brought
assistance and he was extricated from
his perilous position. One side of his
face was badly bruised and for time
he was unconscious. An examination
revealed small stone on the opposite
rail beneath drive wheel, which

which saved Higgins from being
crushed to death.
