one of them understood anything about a
boat. and the result was she capsized and
both came near being drowned. The boat
was considerably damaged and the sail
badly torn. Bob was a good deal put out
in the way they took the boat, and pro~
poses to make them pay for the damage
done.

" Fritz." the Norwnlk correspondent of
the Republican. made it sad mistake last
Week In his statement that “ The editor of
the Swzfiucl huviug tried in vain to borrow
(it-urge Raymond's new teeth to wear on
the Methodist pic pic next week, retali-
ates by saying. “George \V. Raymond. of
Raymond & Nickerson. Nurwulk. is huv~
iug quite a serious time with his new set
of teeth. purchased two or three weeks
ago. Reports have it that he wears them
in his poeket more than he does in his
mouth." “ Fritz " knows. if he hm ever
been on one of those pic nice iif he bus
not. we will tell him for future use) that
it would be tireless to take such teeth
along, as the food purchased at such pla-
ces generally needs something more than
gum chewing. VVorae still, the sensation
which follows the attempt to wear them
for show even. without attempting to eat
with. would, as Mr. Raymond can testify,
spoil all the pleasure derived from the ex-
cursion. to say nothing of the danger tit-
tuchcd thereto—of exposing to public
view his—breakfast.

On Saturday afternoon Wm. J. Kellogg

lowing jury :--Henry B. Gray, foreman:
Wm. J. Kellogg. clerk: Henry D. Wright.

G. Odell. They went down in a nail boat.
in which they took a box to put the body
in. They viewed the remains, which was
eaten cwoy and disfigured by no: cpldorl.
They come to the conclusion that it was
the body of: wow, from tho root idiot

the strum—1733‘}. They are well proacrved
and are in typographical nppecrcucv about
the smug as all old publication. being
printed in old style type. “’0 have plucod
them in our show window and they have
attracted considerable attention. and if
any of the old Nutrients of the town. or

The Methodist Excursion.
The Methodist Sunday schools of this
town held their annual picnic at Brookside
Park yesterday. The weather in the early
part of the day prevented many from go-
ing. but there was enough in the grove to
have n splendid time. The tmin started
from this city about quarter past nine. and
arrived at the Park at 10 o‘clock. Here
the tablcs were spread and lunch partake!)
of. and the rest of the time given to boat-
ing and visiting the surrounding country.
There was a crowd about the spring that
fee-(la the fountain all day long. among
them was "Monk" of the Gazette with his
followers. ‘ About half-pristtliree the party
began to leave for the depot. and at 4
o‘clock the train started for this city. A
good runny were left but took the regular
train home. There was not a single ncci-
dent and all were highly pleased with the
picnic and with Brookside Park.

Sure Robbed.
The safe in the depot at this place was
burglurized last Saturday night and $400
taken. The thieves first wont to Mr.
Benedict's house on \Vushingtan street
and entered by the back door and then
went boldly into his bed chamber where
he and his wife were sleeping and took
the keys of the depot and safe from his
pocket. They then came to the depot and
entered and took from the safe the
mnuunt above stated. and then locked the
ante. oflice and outside doors. and things
looked as Mr. Benedict says “ as though
nothing had been disturbed." During the
night Mrs. Benedict was restless and got
up and went about the room, but did not
bear or see anything to arouse her suspi-
ciim. Usually they have their breakfast
at 7 o'clock Sundays. but on this morning
they slept until 9 o'clock. and it was first
reported that they had been chloroformed
but Mr. Benedict thinks not: if he had
been he would have felt some bad effects
from it. The company was notified and
two detectives came from New York Mun-
day morning. but the probabilities are
they will not be able to detect. the thieves
as tlieytook money only. consequently it
will be hard to track it. The safe was an
ohbfnshioncd one, being locked and un-
locked by a key. which. of course. must
have been known by the thieves. Some
time ago the. ticket-office was entered and
a sum of money was taken from the draw-
or. which Mr. Benedict had to make good.
but this time the Company will be the
looscrs. as the money was placed in their
safe.
