As to the final cost, when the building shall
be completed, the Superintendent says;
I" | am happy to say, that in my judgment,
its entire cost will fall far below the sum gene
rally estimated by the people Of the State, so
far as those estimates have come to my knowl-
edge 1t viii be observed that the sum of about
eighty-niae thousand dollars has, or will COM
plete the exterior, with the exception of paint
ing the cupola and dome, and furnish an appar-
atus with all the necessary pip, coils registers,
screens, and other things complete for steam
tng,-provide and properly set up, two
flights of iron, and also five flights of wooden
stairs -compensate for large snare Of the ex-
pensive ceiling Turing, and the manufacture of
the Necessary doors, window mnel!ing and much
of the remaining finish for the interior. With
the work thus far advanced at IL, greater cost,
/ think hazard nothing in saying that the
house can be put IN readiness to receive the
necessary furniture and completed for occupan-
cy in season for the next legislature, for sum
less even than the reported cost of the former
capitol, which has generally been understood
to be about one hundred and hirtyfac thou
sand dollars.
With result SO entirely different from my
early expectations in relation to the cost of re-
construction and 50 vastly below The expense at
tending the recent erection of the capitols OF
our sister States, am abundantly satisfied anc
| am unwilling to believe that the honest, in
dustrious, and economical citizens of Vermont
would have been better pleased with al more Law
ish expenditure Of money, such as is too otter
the case on public buildings of the kind, fo
the double purpose of rewarding friends, an(
the empty honor of possessing no better ediace
at Il cost ST millions instead Of thousands.

TROUBLE STILL BREwlNG.-The Dead Rabbits
Of this State are not yet entirely rcconclled, as
will be seen from the contortions and awful hair
pullngs of the organs of the Administration.
The editor Of the Patriot cannot forget the
Z" Cow Boys - who cut off his head, and just
now there is a demonstration of still further be-
heading and " scratching" in other quarters !;
while all honest men are getting sick of this
animal putrelacton, and joining hands with the
honorable party who have now the ascendency
in Vermont and New England and promise fa-
vorably to have the whole North in 1906. An
item of the inkling which the Patriot has got of
his decreasing burrow of Rabbits is given in the
last issue Of that paper as follows
{" Is there another set of Democrats in the
State preparing to go over to Black Republican,
ism, for Office? If. SO, 60 ahead The sooner
the better. Where there is ,cW there is u
way"
We should be pleased to have the editor tell
us what Office he knows OF to tempt an honest
man to join the Republican party at this time.
/ he taunt is but taunt. No such reason gov
erns the honest people of State where there
are but a mere handful of offices, and those will
not pay the board bills.

The Reverend "raw Militia - Editor of the
g only Simon pure Buchanan paper in the
State the Bradford Telegraph. has some re-
marks upon the subject Of Our Militia, !"
which arc g cncamost as lucid as mud. The
Telegraph says;
" We hope our Legislature will do something
to ra-organlze the niiltory system Of our State
We long to see something done, whereby our
old time honor3d, June trainings, and general
musters, may again be brought into good re-
pute. IL is necessary to have the bone and
sinew Of war, the militia, established upon
firm basis, for the protection of our rights as
nation, in case of war. And as we have no
large standing army as other nations have, and
as we rely in case of trouble upon our militia,
which on such occasions is our bulwark of de-
fence from foreign aggressions, it ought to be
in good plight. We must admit that in order
to have any efficient, active, and real benefit
from this area Of our national defence, it must
be placed upon such a footing, as will make
it of some avail. 1t must have an efficient or
ganization and be subject to military discipline
and drill, 50 that it may understand well the
necessary military man@uvers. What could
raw militia do in case of war? All will admit
something ought to be done, and therefore we
hope our legislature will make some law, take
some action on this subject"
Isn't. that clear as mud? What kind of
an "area of our national Defence is /" on
militia?"

BIL,L SHAKESPEARE.

In the course Of a recent lecture at Chica-
90, Mr.. James Grant Wilson, Of that city,
introduced an anecdote related to him by his
Quaker friend, William Hewitt. Said How
lit: "As was passing through Stratford one
morning, l saw the master Of the village
school mastering bis scholars to their task.
/ stopped, being pleased with the looks OF the
old man aud said, You seem to have con.
siderable number Of lads here; shall you
raise another Shakespeare from among them,
think you?' Why replied the master, 4
have Shakespeare now 10 the school, l
knew that Shakespeare bad no descendants
beyond the second generation, and was not
aware that there was any of bis family re.
naming. But it seems that the posterity OF
his sister Joan Hart, who is mentioned IN bis
will, yet exists, part uuGer her marriage
name of Hart, at Tewkesberry, and family
in Stratford of the name Of Smith. 81 have
a Shakespeare here said the master with ev.
ident pride and pleasure. Here boys, here.
He quickly mustered bis laddish troop in a
row and said to me There now, sir. can
YOU tell me which is ShskspesreF 1ganced
nv eve along the line, and instantly fxiugit
upon one boy, said, That's the Shakespeare.
You are right said the master, that is
Shakespeare The Shakespeare cast of coun-
teuauce is there. That is William Sbaks-
peare Smith, lineal descendant Of the poets
Sister, Mr.. Hewitt adds, 1t sounded
strangely enough, as Was passing along the
street in the evening, to hear some of the
Same schooboys say one to another, That IS
the geusleman who gave Bill Shakespeare a
shilling this morning"
