Especial 10 The Globe.l
a Montpelier Swindle.
MONTPELIER, March


AN ADRoIT swINDIE
has just been perpetrated on d. X. Gray, a
wealthy farmer near Montpelier, by his
son William q. Gray, who has been home
on visit after a seven years residence In
Kansas. The son just before starting to
return to Kansas obtained from his father
a receipt written and spaced as follows
Montpelier, March 8, 1877.
"Received from VIM. c. Gray
one dollar in full Of
all book account up
to date.
ID. II. GRAY"
Wide spaces were Intentionally left be-
tween the words of this receipt which
young Gray afterwards filed in ard chang
ed the word "from" TO "promise" so as to
read as follows:
900 Montpelier, March 8, 1877.
Sixty days after date for value
received l promise to pay VIM. G. Gray
or order one thousand dollars in full of
all book account up
to this date.
d. Il. Gray
Bidding his father an affectionate fare
well, on Monday William came into Mont
pelier, where he remained over Tuesday
and disposed of his note. He first called
on a lawyer, 7. j. Deavitt, esq, asking
his advice if it was properly drawn, and
offering to cell 1t for $3.50, Mr.. Deavitt
recognized the signature and agreed to pur-
chase the note If it was all right, stating
that though the form is peculiar it was
valid, and asked the young man to return
in two hours. But when d. r. Gray was
found and questioned about the note he de-
clared that "No one in the world held his
note for any amount whatever" Young
Gray was arrested later in the day by a
brakeman with whom he had contracted q
small account some years ago. This he
paid and subsequently negotiated the bogus
note to an innocent party who brought it to
Mr.. Deavitt with request that the princi-
pal be notified of the transfer. Mr.. D. r.
Gray declares that he will never pay the
note, but as the signature can be proved to
be genuine, and the present holder is an in
nocent party, it is thought the law, what
ever may be the equity of the case, is
against him. Young Gray left ostensibly
for Kansas and escaped.

Renovation. not Prostration.

Did any enfeebled human being ever become
strong under the operation OF powerful cathar-
tics or salivants? II Is sometimes necessary
to regulate the bowels, but that cannot be
done by active purgation, which exhausts the
vital forces and serves no good purpose what
ever. The only true way to promote health
and vigor, which are essential to regularity of
organic functions, is to invlgoTate, discipline
and purify the system ct the same time. The
extraordinary efficacy OF Hostetter's Stomach
Blttera in cases OF debility or irregularily OF
the organs OF digestion, assimilation, secretion
and discharge, is universally admitted Appe-
tlte, good digestion, a regular habit OF body,
active circulation OF the blood, and purity OF
all the animal fluids are induced by this SUI
perb tonic and corrective. 1t has no equals,
moreover, as preventive of chills and fever,
and other types Of maarial disease. To emf
grants and travellers IL is particularly service
able as medicinal safeguard.

Supporting Hayes.

NEW York, March s.
The Union League club tonight passed
resolutions to the effect that the republi-
can party, after commanding great ma
jorities in the states, In congress and in the
national canvass, finds itself now in power
only by the balance of single electoral
vote, and confronted by possible major
ity of the people and by an &C
tual majority in the house of re-
representatives.. Our supremacy in the fu-
ture will depend not on want of merit
In our adversaries, not on our noble
achievements in the past but upon the real
character and doings of the incoming adj
ministration. 1t has been asserted that the
diminution in our prestige aud majorlies
is due to the infldelity to pledges, to put
ting unworthy men in office, and to tie
surrendering to party dictation; therefore,
Resolved, That its greater strength and
stability will be secured by absolute fidelity
the rights, interests and honor Of the
whole people, not by adroit management or
selfish or secret policy. That in President
Hayes letter of acceptance these principles
were foreshadowed and in his inaugural
address fidelity TO public pledges is
recognized, a; we'll as states
manlike comprehension Of the con-
ditions upon which the paciflcation
of states, the prosperity of business, reform
in civil service and the honor of the nation
can be secured; that in his nominations
for the cabinet we recognize the presidents
good faith 10 his avowed principles and de-
sire to pacify the discordant elements and
bring all portions of the Union into HARM
ony, and that the nominations ought to be
at once confirmed.
