He is now a manufacturer of church furniture. He married in Indiana and brought his wife along for a visit among his relatives in this locality. While Mr. Chapman's team was crossing the railroad near the depot last Thursday, one of his horses fell, leaving the sleigh on the west track. It was a lucky fall for Mr. Chapman, for had the sleigh stood on the other track it would have been smashed into kindling wood by the express, which passed by before he had succeeded in get ting his horse upon its feet. The sleigh was loaded with coal for Peaslee ’ s paper mill. The event of the week will the lecture “ That Girl of Ours, ” by Rev. J. H. Lane, of Claverack, in the M. E. church, on Thursday evening. This lecture should have a full house. Mr. Lane is said to be a very entertaining lecturer and delights his audience with many humorous stories. Much wholesome advice is also given and the lecture is replete with vigorous and suggestive thoughts, numerous side thrusts at feminine drones and dudes. Referring to this lecture the Rosendalo, N. Y. Press says: “ Those who listened to Rev. J. H. Lane in the Reformed church, were favored with a fine literary treat. The lecture was forcible and polished, and will bear com parison with those of Lyceum days, when none except the best talent was employed. Logic and sentiment, pathos and the hu morous held the audience during its entire delivery which occupied one and a half hours. ” Don ’t forget the date: Thursday evening, Feb. 23.

Y., where he has been for some time past for the improvement of his health. William H. Smith of this village, was quite badly bruised and had his sleigh completely wrecked by a runaway team a few days ago. There will be an entertainment in Dis trict No. 5 on Washington ’ s Birthday. Miss Rivenburgh has done her very best to make the occasion a success. The hob-slide is again in condition for use and the youth and beauty, the middle aged ’ and old, all join in having as much enjoyment as can be obtained from this sport. Mrs.. Wilson Miller and daughter with Miss Lizzie Best, all of Valatie, have been spending a few days at the Mansfield House, as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. L. O. Mansfield. The Rev. Mr. Lane of the M.

Their conclusions have not yet been handed down to the public. Richard Miller and his son-in-law, Frank Best, have purchased the stone mills of Sheriff Felts for the sum of $11,000. The mill has been doing an immense business this year, haying ground 9,000 barrels of flour. We hope the business will increase and bring wealth and prosperity to the two gentlemen who have bought it. Claverack people have just begun to awake to the fact that the college has three genuine musical artists. Mr. Hoyt really plays the violin with the execution and ex pression of an embryonic Pagganini, and Signor Echamendea executes the most dif ficult piano music with the ease and ex pression of a De Kontski, while Miss Wal lace has already attained an enviable repu tation for her vocal abilities. Miss Ella June Meade gave a recitation in College chapel on Saturday evening last. Miss Meade is a graduate of the college and does her alma mater great credit, as she has a wide reputation as an elocution ist. Her recitations and readings are new and not the time-worn remains of a thou sand years ago, which are served up by every school boy in the land. It was laugh able to hear the remarks made when it was known that an elocutionist was going to give an entertainment. “ Chestnuts ” were variously hinted at. But the tenor of the conversation changed after the entertain ment was over and everybody would will ingly have listened for an hour or two more. EAST CHATHAM. Hosea B. Pratt died at his residence on Tuesday morning after a brief illness of about 10 days. He was 83 years of age.

After making a trip to Europe he returned to New York and practiced medicine with Dr. Pratt for about three years. He then went to Macon, Ga., where he entered the mercan tile business under the firm name of Cook & Pratt. Later he left - the south and re turned to New Concord, where he took up farming, occupying his time in the business for about twenty-five years. His health failing him, he removed to this place where he has lived during the past nineteen years. This place loses an old and respected citizen. He has always been spoken of in the highest terms by all who knew him, and he will be long missed by our towns men. He leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss. They have the sympa thy of friends in their sad bereavement. The funeral services were held at the house on Friday, at 11 o ’ clock, Rev. T. S. Brown, officiating. The remains were in terred at the New Concord cemetery. KINDERHOOK. BERLIN. The Citizens ’ band will give a grand ball on Tuesday evening. The donation given to Rev. A. E.

Burrows, . ■' .. ' The slander case of Carlton vs. Lavender occupied the attention of the county court until Tuesday night. O.u Wednesday morning the jury reported that the plaintiff had been damaged six cents ’ worth. The court then took up the Germantown poultry case of The People vs. Simon Rockefeller, who was indicted for larceny. The defense was an alibi. The jury delib erated for five minutes on Thursday and acquitted the defendant. District Attorney Gardenier next moved the trial of Edward McKittrick, indicted for robbery from the person. The defend ant ’ s counsel asked for a postponement, and the case was ordered put over to the Jane sessions. The case of Peter Malone was put over to the same court. Peter Stolliker, convicted of assault, second degree, was sentenced to Clinton prison for three years. The court then adjourned until Feb. 27. - ■ A DESERVED TRIBUTE. It always affords us pleasure to give credit to any county official whose cause-, merits it, and by the able and faithful ad-, ministration of the duties of his- offiee- District-Attorney Gardenier has made- friends on every hand and is entitled to due credit. When first elected to succeed Hon. JohnB. Longlej ’ , with very little experience m criminal matters, he found himself heir to the Moett case, and then followed the cases of Beckwith, with all its phases, Scoma, Jackson and a multitude of lesser ' causes, all of which he handled with great tact and ability, never putting the county to the expense of extra counsel to assist him. He fought and won a large percen tage of the legal battles, in a manner* gratifying to tax payers and highly credit able to himself. The office calls for a large amount of work and is hut poorly paid, but District- Attorney Gardenier stands as between the people of the State of New York and all criminals, fearless in the discharge of hla duty and demanding only strict justice. — Hudson Register.
