The Aldermen's meeting Friday
night which we were unable to at

very important improvements for
the town. The papers and people
have been clamoring for good
sidewalks and streets, and the al

the people to be law. In their
meeting on Friday night, the pro
posed new charter was taken up
and discussed, and it was decided
to present a petitiou to the legis
lature, asking authority from
them to hold an election for the

'j Yesterday evening about 7

Stewart fell from the bucket bring

lulling him instantly. We were
hot able to verffy everything that
waa rumored in connection with
Ihe accident, but in a talk with a
old Hill gentleman it seems that
Stewart was being drawn up in the
bucket, and before anybody reali
zed what was done, he had fallen
to the ground and death was in
stantaneous. This makes the
second similar death, Will Myers
having met death in the mine last

Seme say that a muzzle can be
