{. Gov. Plaisted has set the guillotine at work
and decapitated the heads of several officials,
but it remains to be seen whether the heads
will tumble into the basket or not, as it is for
the Council to say whether they will confirm
or reject the nominations he has made.
Gov. Plaisteds son. pale faced, modest
and unassuming youth of 16 years, entered up
on his duties to-day as Messenger to the Ex-
ecutive chamber, while Maj. House continues
to act as Messenger to the Council. Both
messengers occupy the ante-room leading to
the two chambers, the Governors son having
his desk near the door of the Governors room,
while Maj. House has his desk near the door
of the Council chamber. The duties of each
in no wise conflict. 1t may now be said that
the Governor and Council have each set up
housekeeping on their own account. Hereto
fore the door between the Executive chamber
and Council room has been an open, free and
unrestricted avenue for the Governor and his
constitutional advisers. Now it is closed and
kept locked by the Governor, and is the dead
line between the two departments.

sheep had been killed by bears In the range of
six towns in his representative district the

of 153 sheep that had been killed by bears in

to report bill offering a bounty of S. on
bears.
The alleged swindling operations of T. B.
