Xotod horsemen who have een It, such as Mr. Itobtfrt Bonner of New York, say it Is the best thing of the kind In exUtente. It seems that the horse, suppoied to have the glumler, which was killed lmt week by direction of the vlllnge authorities, did not twlung to tieorge Unmi.o of Cornwall, as stated, but to George Fsrr of Illptou, to any one. Ilrousso, after he traded with Farr, took the dUeaied animal home; but becoming convinced thnt It was worthless, brought an action against Farr. On Wednesday Fair enme down and delivered back to Broutoo the horse he had of hltu In the trade, and Brousso gave back Into Farr's keeping the diseased horse; so that he regards Farr as responsible for leavlug the hore In the mill shed over night.

The brute was killed Thursday afternoon and burled deep on the town lot on C'hlptuan hill. Those who ought to know are very positive that It was a clear case of the glanders. It Is understood that Farr will bring suit against the village officers to recover the value of the animal. linTIIKRS 1 IIAVE DOT'S KNEE-PANT SUITB JlVlllUUU SIZES 5 to 14 YEARS, I WILL SELL DURING THE MONTH OF AUOUST FOR 75 cents to $5 A SUIT.

The negotiations for the sale of the cotton mill property to Boston parties do not progress as rapidly as could be wished. The owners are willing to make liberal concessions in order to get something in the way of manufacturing in progress. A current story that the Vermont Marble company, or some ol its agents, is trying to get the mill is pronounced absurd by those who ought to be Informed. As to the Belden's Falls mill, it is understood that work upon it will soon begin. Monday afternoon there was a heavy storm here, accompanied by a strong wind.

No damage of any account was done in this vicinity. Rainy days have been the rule rather than the exception since last Friday. Farmers are pretty well discouraged. Few of them are through with haying, and a good deal of grain is ready to go in yet it is possible to do hardly anything toward securing crops Potatoes are said to be rotting and oats are rusting. Altogether the outlook is not pleasant.

Dr. Mellen has sold to F. Battelle of Worcester, for $500, his seven-year-old bay gelding Major, by Larry by Daniel Lambert. The doctor is making arrangements for the manufacture of the hoof packer and expander which he invented and on which he has applied for a pattent.

Ovtaj thb Bank. At a rather late hour on Sunday night John Boudreau, who lives at the north end of the vlllnge near C'hlptuan hill, heard a tremendous racket. On going out where the uolse came from he found that a home and carriage had tumbled oyer the high bank In front of the residences of Messrs. Lucia and Lavonche.

The carriage had sustained considerable damage and the horse slight scratches. There was no one In tight, nor did any claimant for the rig appear, so Mr. Boud reau put the horse In hit baru and await ed developments. Monday morning early Deputy Sherlfl Cobb bad a telegram from Deputy Sherlfl Lawrence of Bristol to the effect that a horse had been stolen there the evening previous and that the thief had come this way. Mr.

Cobb soon got track of the wrecked rig and Informed the Bristol officer of his find. It appeared, on Mr Lawrence's arrival, that Sunday even ing Reed Rathbone, who lives a mile and a half north of Bristol village, drove to the vlllnge to church and hitched his horse under the shed. When the meet ing closed the team bad disappeared, and the next he heard of it was here. There is, so fur as we have heard, no evidence tending to show who committed the crime.
