How riches take to themselves wings and
fly away is in fair way of being illustra-
ted in Pennsylvania. J. Edgar Thomson,
at one time president of the Pennsylvania
railroad company, left an estate valued at
over million of dollars which he be-
queathed for the establishing of an institu-
ton FOR the education and maintenance of
the female orphans of such railroad en-
ployes as were killed in the discharge of
their duties. There were no claims known
against the estate and it was making fair
progress toward a settlement, when claim
of nearly million of dollars was present
ed growing out of the following state of
facts a mortgage was authorized on the
line of the Davenport and st. Paul railroad
to the amount of twenty thousand dollars
a mile, and Mr.. Thomson was made a
trustee under the mortgage. Default was
made in the payment of the interest in
January OF last year, and it is now stated
that there was an Overissue of bonds and it
Is claimed that Thomson is liable for this
over issue both as trustee and, also, as q
member of the construction company
through whom the bonds were negotiated.
1t is said that the company decline to fur
nsh any information further than that
their bonded debt does not exceed three
million one hundred and forty thousand
dolars-whch is exactly at the rate of
twenty thousand dollars mile, the amount
authorized. Thomsons executors, OF
course, resist the claim denying any labll-
ity on the part of the estate even if there
has been an over issue.

From Springfield Republican
Game in Vermont.

They have an Association for the pro-
tectien of game and fish" in the state of
Vermont, and they need it badly. This
wood land and mountain state, where there
are and always will be thousands of acres
given up to growing timber, and where the
brooks are still free from manufactures to
large extent, is as bare of game as mar
ble-topped table. There is nothing more
melancholy for one in search of the rural
flavor than to wander through forests
where the most considerable animal is the
squirrel and to ramble along brooks spark
ling but lifeless. There are considerable
streams which have not been inhabited in
memory of man, and whole townships
where the growing tarm-lad is as unfamil-
lar to the fishing rod and shot gun and to
the days ramble amid nature as any city
bred unfortunate.
DR.. Middleton Goldsmith of Rutland, a
well known physician, who has investlga-
ted the subject at home and abroad, recent
to an address on this subject, to which we
solicit careful attention. DIR. Goldsmith
says that the game rents of Scotland, that
10, shS ANshpS w ohc's 6"iiiNf ohiouut W
$4,000, 900 annually, and he has no doubt
that the game Of the state of Vermont is
susceptible of producing more than the
whole cost of the state government. Where
a good trout brook runs through a farm,
the fishing ought to rent for enough to pay
the whole taxes on the farm, and forest
ought to pay ten cents an acre. To attain
this end, game must be taken only in its
proper season, the exclusive right of the
land owner to kill the game on his own
premises must be insisted upon, and the
lawless, rambling poachers, who pursue
game ignorantly, often cruelty and
lawlessly, must be depressed. The Sun
day hunting of boys is exterminating the
last survivors of the natural cattle of the
soil. The English obligation to the game
laws In that country does not obtain in this
country. In England the landlords are tine
nobility, and for their pleasure the game
is preserved But in this country, and
peculiarly in Vermont, the owners OF the
soil are the actual occupiers, the common
people, and nobody has better right to
insist on the preservation of their own.
Again, as to the hardship of requiring
''the poor man" to pay reasonable license
fee for the right to hunt, II game was made
plenty he could much better afford to pay
fee than he now can to spend his whole

Bishop Peck in Boston.

On Sunday afternoon the Winthrop

other Methodist churches and many from

nouncement that Rev. Jesse r. Peck, DID,,

Methodist church, would deliver a sermon.
The Boston Journal says: "Bishop Peck
selected for his text the words-'For by

mencing his discourse he spoke in very
calm and dispassioned manner, but as he
proceeded he warmed with fiery eloquence,
and held his vast audience spell-bound by
the force of his eloquent appeale. He said
his purpose was very simple. He desired
to simply say as well as he could what
their christian faith was to them. He
would not raise the question directly, is
cur faith true I? only indirectly would he
compare it with other faiths, that they
might be strengthened in their own

of course the desire for office or it's re-

and III the self complacency with which
they ascribe to themselves some share In
bringing it about. And this comes from
those papers which have been as dead

the way of its progress and which have
done their utmost-thank heaven 1t was
but little they could doto render a
triumph impossible. Look back at the
commencement of the year, and find these

papers to take to themselves any degree of
credit for the results of this years elections,
save only those in Connecticut and Missis-

Could these newspapers have bad their

democratic triumph of last year would
haye been made permanent and the only
relief to democracy in Washington, if II
would have been any relief, would be the
sight of score or more Of dsreputablt
carpet-baggers from the south, claiming tc
be republican members of congress ant
even these would have vanished after
another year. But their advice was no
needed, the republican party dared to d.
and be right, it sent these bummers to tn,
rear and the result is before us. We hav'

1t is fortunate for the country that the
republican office holders of Washington
are not representative men of the party. 1t
was, perhaps, all well enough for them to
call upon the president and congratulate
him on the result of the elections last week
although he had little to do with bringing
them about, but it was an affront to the
moral sentiment of the country and the
party to extend congratulations TO "Boss"
Shepherd. But after all, it was about what
we should expect of them, and, perhaps,
it was the only thing they could do in or
der to retain their 'bread and butter" for
another sixteen months.
