THE CAUSE ATTRIBUTED Interesting Observations at Troutberg Where the Water Has Receded Nearly a Quarter of a Mile-Monroe County News. Lake Ontario is now without doubt at the lowest Ab ever known. It was very low In the spring, and has continued falling week by week ever since. This is owing to three causes, the principal being the continued drouth in the basin of the great lakes and tributaries, since May. 1S94.

The second -cause is the denudation of forests, allowing water to run oil quickly. Another cause is the lowering of the channel of the St. Lawrence river in recent years. beach, at many points presents a curious and sometimes beautiful appearance, showing the action of the water in the past ana giving the shore a peculiarly ragged appearance. Probably there is no better place than Troutiburg for making comparisons.

Out at West Point, the water has receded nearly a quarter of a mile. Here the 'beach is thickly strewn with fine building stone, awaiting some enterprising quarryman. In front of the rieasant View house there is a little pier at which anglers usually sit and fish; now there is not a drop of water within many feet of it. Ia front of the Ontario house there is a pier, beside which a steamboat sank a few years ago during a storm. Now, only a few feet of the outer end of the pier is standing in about two feet of water.

Fourteen years ago the late ex-Sheriff Campbell, of Rochester, purchased the Bush house property and built a pier far out into the lake. Subsequent storms carried it nil away, excepting one big crib which the ice shoved off below the surface, and 5t is usually submerged; now it looms up about five feet above the -water. A half mile east, at the Devil's Nose, which is the highest headland on the southern shore, there is a of rocks and conglomerates extending far out in the lake. Usually they are submerged, tout now pedestrians pass all over and around them, dry shod. A few years ago Landlord Stour, while fishing off this point, had hte anchor caught among these rocks and had to abandon it.

A few days ago his little son Lyell, while wandering among the rocks, discovered it In a few inches of water and secured it. A few days ago Misses Nellie Austin, Emma Bates and Matie Elliott, of Morton, drove with a horse and carriage along the beach from the Spring Brook marsh west to Troutburg, a distance of two miles, passing along the base of the Devil's Nose, right where small steamers and other small craft can usually go. At one point while passing this cliff, they were appir-ently balked by a chain of huge bowlders which were too close together for their carriage to pass, but they pluckily unhitched their horse, and, lifting the vehicle over, rehitched and proceeded. Their trip is a feat never performed before by a feminine, and they are justly elated. A few years ago it was accomplished by Ed.

Gavin, the veteran blacksmith of Shay's Corners, and a companion, but their temerity nearly cost them the lives of themselves and horse, all of them escaping only by their ability as swimmers. John Bennett, who was arrested at Brockport Tuesday and sent to the insane asylum, was not John A. Bennett of that place, father-in-law of Assemblyman Armstrong, as many have supposed. ONTARIO. Hearing in a Geneva Will Contest A Young Thief at Canandaigua Note3.

The hearing in the Denton will case was resumed before Surrogate Lapham at the village trustees' rooms in Geneva yesterday. The contestants, Gormley and Smith, closed their evidence with the testimony of Dr. II. M. Eddy, of Geneva, who was the family physician of the deceased during the last twenty-five years of his life.

He testified among other things that he considered Mr. Denton perfectly sane. The proponents, to sustain the will, opened their case with the testimony of Professor Charles D. Vail, the registrar and librarian of Hobart College, Geneva, who testified to having an intimate acquaintance with the deceased nearly ever since his boyhood and particularly for the last fifteen years, and detailed many instances of things that the deceased did and said to show that he was rational, and which the witness characterized as being perfectly rational. Miss Mary E.

Grey was also sworn and testified that she boarded at the residence of the deceased for the past seven years and during which time she taught a private school in Geneva. She testified to many transactions of a 'business nature and otherwise with the deceased, with all of which she characterized as rational. The proponents also called several merchants of Geneva, including M. C. Ilaight.

W. II. Blodgett, II. J. Khfbe and Solomon F.

Persons, all whom testified to various business transactions with the deceased and considered him perfectly rational and sound mentally. The further -hearing of the case was adjourned to next Tuesday, November 19th, at the Tillage trustees' rooms of Geneva. The owners of the Shortsville Cart Company property have leased the same to Mr. Ingersoll of Walworth, who intends to put in machinery for grinding feed, and will keep on hand Hour and feed. The Star paper mill property at Shortsville, which has stood idle so long and rapidly going to ruin, has at last taken a new lease of life, by being put in the hands of mechanics, who are putting on a new roof, and rumor says that in the near future the works will be running on first-class printing paper.

An attempt was' made last Wednesday night to burglarize William Itandell's blacksmith shop located at Port Gibson. The person or persons attempted to draw the staple hy which the door was locked. They did not, however, succeed in doing so. Mr. Kandell said he thought their motive was to get tools with which to break into someone's house.

The case was concerning the care of a pauper named George Hoyt. and was first tried before Justice Smith, of Reading, who gave the plaintiff a judgment of about $00.

WAS CHOPPED TO PIECES The Terrible Injury Yesterday to Martin Owen Arm All Chopped to Pieces and Had to be AmputatedOrleans County News. Yesterday forenoon James Day's corn busker was in operation at the farm of Martin Owen in Kendall an accident occurred by which one of the workmen lost an arm. Ira Bois was feeding the husker, and a large ear having gotten crosswise in the rollers so that they would. not take it, he reached -in his mittened hand to dislodge the ear, and his hand was caught by the rollers and before the machine could be stopped the hand was literally chopjied into pieces and the wrist burst open under the pressure.

The injured man was taken to the oflice of Dr. Richard W. Bamber. The flesh above the wrist was so badly injured and devitalized that it was found necessary to amputate the forearm about three inches below the elbow. Dr.

Bamber, assisted by Dr. A. J. Clark, of Kendall, Dr. F.

B. Gould, of Kent, and Dr. William Richmond, of Morton, performed the operation. It was the left arm which was injured. Great sympathy is felt for the unfortunate man, as he is just in the prime of life and dependent for his living upon his labor.

Mr. Bois has a wife but no children. Almond A. Wheeler died last Wednesday night at his home in Holley, from Bright's disease, at the age of 42 years. The deceased leaves a wife, Julia Wheeler, and one son, Carl.

Miss Clara Jones, of Clarendon, was quite seriously injured yesterday. While driving on the Holley rod she was thrown from the 'buggy and fell between the wheels of a lumber wagon which she was passing. The hind wheel passed over her chest and shoulders. She was picked up in an unconscious condition aud taken to a house near by, and it was only after an hour's work that she regained consciousness. She was then taken to her home, a short distance north of Clarendon village.

Although she is badly hurt, no bones were broken, and unless injured internally, it is thought she will recover. It is very interesting to see a good deed performed, but when one can trace a long line of noble acts done by strong, helpful and characteristic men and women, and those ia one family, it is well worth noting. The family to the late Samuel E. Hart, of Ardian. formerly of Albion, and son of the late Joseph and Lucy Hart, of Albion, this week presented as a memorial of Samuel E.

Hart, an elegant and costly dwelling, to be used as a parsonage for the First Presbyterian Church of that city. Mr. Hart died intestate, leaving no record of his plans or wishes relutive to the purchase of a parsonage, although, the family knew the wishes he had expressed in regard to erecting a building for a manse. It was an entire surprise to the trustees, members of the session and others who were called on Monday afternoon to inspect the dwelling, which is describe! as one of the chief architectural ornaments of residential Adrian. A beautiful silver tablet, d-siguod by Tiffany, of New York, Is place! on the building, showing in whose memory the building was erected.

It is Well known nt Albion what the brother, nephews and rther of the Hart family have done for the Presbyterian society at Albion. WAYNE. Vote of the County as Canvassed Court Proceedings Weddings.

A Boy Thrown From a Colt and Probably Fatally Injured Notes and News.

An accident occurred near Springwater Tuesday afternoon which will probably result fatally. Ezra Frarey, a little boy 13 years old, who lives with his parents a short distance southeast of Springwater, had just returned from school when he went to the barn and rode out a colt. In some manner the boy was thrown from the colt's back, striking his head on a larg.j stone.
