The Little GiasS Shoe.


"Ho! ho! ha! ha!-What is it view ?"
John " lido. the plowman cried
A he hit his foot on little glass shoe
That On the mountain side
Some Fay has lost it, there's never doubt
But ali how iucNy for me,
The owner ill soon tie roaming about.
To find where his shoe may be
Ard so." So John, Ii c .rTy it hym..
That jGst what [ will do.
Ant h viii ray me u pr t'y .u.n
VINO bays this Iitte saoe!"
And he spread the s'Ory far and near,
For many IA mild around,
That the fairy folk mi ht s9r " near
And sUoa to j nhn a me- Lant came.
" ho said he had the news:
Aud would the rlowman sell the same
TO II dealer III glass shoes?
And he offered } John pretty price
For the shoe that he had found
Bat j uhn replied it was muca too nice
10 go tor a hundred pound
Then the merchant offered a hundred more.
But the plowmln still said. Nay.
The man who buys my shoe" he Sworc,
" Will dearly have to pay.
There's not p.ettier shoe on earth.
10 cover latys toes;
AMI thus | happe to know Its worth
Far better than you suppose.
The shoe is one OF wOndrous price,
(Ihat nobody can deny)
And yet, perchancc there's some device
May serve the shoe to buy.
If you are able to show me now,
when | am plowing my field.
That every turrow behind my plOw
A shining ducat may yield
Why then. to you the shoe Ii give.
Else will keep il ny self,
For an OTn tment as long as l live.
To grace my mantel shelfp'
And So it was the fairy bought,
PTwas in u merchants gui,co
His own glass shoe and quick rs thought,
Away to his homo he hle'.
And off went John, with much delight.
As fast as he could go.
By trial to prove. tpat very night,
If the charm would WORK or no.
And he found the tairys word was true
AS he promiE cd in the trade;
For n shining ducit came TO view
IN every iurrow he made!
And aga n. next morning, off he went
Nor scarce 10 eat could stop

10 gather his golden crop.
And so he plowed. and p.owed, and plOwcd,
And scarce for siumber ceased;
No wonder John was growing proud.
As fast his wealth increase
And still he ployed by day and night
When none were looking o,
Till he seemed, indeed a sorry knight.

And still when none his work might view.

And still the more his riches grew.
The more he pined away.

Poisonous Paper Shades.

DR.. Mirus mentions two cases In j ena
and one in Frankfort where tersons
using green glazed paper shades were
attacked with symptoms Of arsenic
poisoning. In one case the symptoms
did not cease until the use of the shade
was discontinued. The heat of the
lamp, volatilizing the arsenic, renders
even the very small quantity present
extremely dangerous. The arsenic IS
us ed in the we'll known Paris green,
with which not only lamp shades but
wall papers, etc, are so often colored.

Mr.. GREELEY was cut off in his 62i
year. His temperate habits and custom
of out door exercise would have led one
to expect for him a much longer life.
Mr.. Sumner is only of Mr.. Greeley's
age. Mr.. Chase is Ga ; Bennett lived to
be II; Ben Wade is 72; Webster held
out to 70, and Clay to IS; while Van
Buren, though one of the worst beaten
Of Presidential candidates, was so when
he died. Thurlow Weed is living at Is,
and Mr.. Seward has Just died at II. Mr..
Greeley has perhaps worked harder than
any one of these, but Lord Brougham
worked severely and continually, and

Gladstone is SO, and Disraeli CT. Lord
Palmerston lived to be 81.

an obstruction in the outward ends OF n

Next ligate that neck behind the out
dragged mole with delicate, strong,
wsxed silk thread, that cuts off the Cir
culaton; clip away the unused thread
and await the result. A slight local in
hammation ensues, which is the gluing
together the new surface of the stretchc d
skin.

A Western Enterprise.

Mr.. James McDaniels former resident
of Rutland, but now an honored citizen
OF Kansas, has lately opened new and
magnificent hotel called the "Otis House"
at Atchison, Kansas, which eclipses any
enterprise of the kind west of Chicago.
From the press of that region we learn that
''the new hotel is justly the pride of At
Crimson" Messrs McDaniels & Savage are
the proprietors, and are fitting gentlemen
to manage such an elegant establishment.
Mr.. McDaniels represented Kansas City in
the Legislature last year and is considered
one of the most promising young men in
the country.
The Otis House is a fine, large four-story
brick building, containing all the most ap-
proved hotel appurtenances and every de-
partment is completed ina style that can
not be surpassed. The rooms are the most
gorgeously and Hastily furnished of any
hotel this side of New York. The Lindell
or Southern at st. Louis were not as costly
in their palmiest days. The Otis House
has taken, and will maintain a leading po-
sition among the--frst-class hotels in the
west, and we are glad that from the day of
its opening it has been doing a fine business
which is constantly increasing.
Although Mr.. McDaniels is one of the
proprietors of the house, he will continue
to make his residence in Kansas City,
leaving the same in charge of Mr.. Savage"
All of which is good news to hear from
Rutland boy and shows the true Vermont
Yankee enterprise.

Reunion Notes.

Col. Veazey has received an answer to
the invitation sent to Lieut.. Gov. j. G..
Cobinson of New York, former Brevet
Major General in the war, in which he an
nounces his intention of being present at
the Soldiers Reunion.
This adds another of the gallant boys to
the list of those who will put in an appear
ance here at that time and helps swell the
number of those who will assist by their
presence and speech to make the gathering
one of great interest and importance.
Brig. General b. s. Roberts of the U. 8.
Army who is staying for the present at
Alburgh Springs and who is the veteran
! officer of the army has also accepted the
invitation and will be present at the re-
union. This will be good news not only
to the older members of the force but also
to the younger who have in him an ex-
ample of military ability worthy of imita-
ton.
Major ]. II. Hazelton of West Rutland,
we learn, is organizing company of cav
airy for the occasion which will not fail to
make fine appearance and be a disting-
uished acquisition to the force.
Maj. J. A. Salisbury, the battalion com
mander for Rutland county, has appointed
Mr.. James II. Dyer, of this village, adju-
tant of his regiment which lisa good choice.
The Major has just returned from a tour
through the county and he reports that
the boys are all coming, and that ten or
twelve companies will probably be organ
lied.

unhurt. The train being heavy ran about
one hundred feet and stopped. The bag.
gage cars doubled up and were badly
smashed.
As soon as the train stopped, large ath.
lctic men, masked in full Ku-Klux style,
appeared at the express car in which were
Conductor William Smith, Superintendent
Royce, Express messenger John Burgess
and three other persons, and commenced
firing rapidly into the car, yelling, "get
out of there. Damn ye, get out of there. ;
Two bullets passed through the clothes of
the conductor, one grazed the skull of the
baggageman and one side of the head of the
express messenger The inmates jumped
out when they were ordered to the rear
covered by half dozen revolvers.
Two of the robbers marched up and
down the train threatening to shoot any
person who showed their heads on the
train, saying, SECT down out of sight,
damnye, or we will shoot you" The rob
bers then took about $4,000 from the ex-
press safe, cut open the mail sacks, but
took no letters, and mounted each horse
and made off across the prairie In south
erly direction, the whole thing being done
in less time than ten minutes.
They fortunately did not cut telegraph
wires and Superintendent Royce at once
FASTENED to the nearest station and tele-
graphed in all directions An engine and a
possee of men were sent out from Council
Bluffs on tho Burlington and other roads
to intercept the robbers. Their dress and
voices indicated that they were regular
bushwhackers. They evidently intended
to get the usual valuable express matter by
this route on Mondays, but which went
through on an extra train on Sunday night.
The robbers during the day stole spike
bar and hammer from the hand car house
at the station, drew spikes from one end of
the railroad and secured them several
rods away, and as the engine approached,
pulled rail out of its place. The prompt
ness of the engineer in reversing his engine
and the use of air brakes saved the pas
sengers from harm as not one was
injured. The track was at once laid around
the wrecked cars and the train resumed its
trip, arriving here at 1880 this morning,
bringing the dead body of the engineer who
resided here, and who leaves wife and
three children.
