M. C. A. This class was the largest in the institute this year, Government statistics show that as a rule farmers receive about one-third ‘of the retail price for their products. Mr. Birdseye's address is sure to prove of direct practieal value to every pat- ron who seeks to enjoy a more equita- ble share in the fruits of his labobr. COLCTHESTER.

Ladies’ Debt CHILwv LOST. Four Year Old Son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Maillioux of Thompson Mies- ing. -Ten days’ scouring of the woods and all the territory in that part of Thomp- son about North Grosvenerdale has failed to develop a single clue of the whereabouts of the little four year old son of Mr, and Mrs. Henry Maillioux who disappeared about b o'clack on the afternoon of April 8th. It would seem @s if_the earth had opéned and swal- lowed the boy, 8s far as leaving any trace of him is comeerned. He was playing_outside the house when last seen, Since that time mot a person oan be found who can give the slght- est ald or information that will assist in returning the Mttls chap to his heart-broken parents. The, water iu the river that winds through the town has been drawn off, out without result. Saturday being a half holiday, many" of the mill hands organized search- ing parties and working independently went over all the wooded territory and fields ‘where the boy would have been likely to stray, but without result, It is barely poseible that the boy may have been kidnapped, but little ore- dence is giyen this theory. His dis- appearance has cast a shadow of gloom over the community where the fam!ly is well known and where the boy was a favorite. A strahge feature of the case is the fact that the child was never im the habit of leaving the dooryard unless accompanied by an oider person. While the chances are that the boy has per- ished long before now, if he has not been: kidnapped, hope still exists among the deeply affected people of the vil- lage that the boy may stil be found alive. When last seen he wore & red coat red ‘cap, black stockings and ta shoes. e was a bright little fellow of rosy, dark complexion. THREE LOCOMOTIVES Required to Draw Big Sixty Car Freight Train. Three mogul locomotives pouring black smoke out of their stacks untl it swept back like a storm cloud, ran out of the local rallroad vards Satur- day afternoon, haufing such a string of cars as are geldom Mnked togeher in one train. The train was Hartford- bound, aver the main line of the Mid- Iana division, and when the locomotive at the front of the train was well up the stiff grade towards Modoes ledge the rear end of the train was just run- ning by the station. Two locomotives on the heavy freights has become common enough sight, but three on the same train caught even the attention of the railroad men. The freight busi- ness over the Midland djvislon h been very heavy the pastétwo weel and as an indication of Increasing prosperity is a good sign. There were sixty cars in the train. 14 TO 0.
