A Country Dance in Vermont.

A letter from Burlington, Vermont,
says: Let us present ourselves at a
genuine country dance in Vermont. The
musicians have just come in and taken
the seats provided for them on slightly
raised platform at one end Of the long
hall. About fifty OF sixty occupies" of
young people are scattered about through
the hall, some in merry groups, talking,
others, more bashful, cinging to each
others arms and waiting III silence for
the music to strike up. After the usual
prelude of shrilling and footing, the
leader of the little orchestra mods to the
floor manager, who promptly steps for
ward and shouts, Gentlemen, please
take partners for -," as the dance
may be. If it is a waltz the expectant
swain awkwardIy and blushingly encir-
cles the fair one with his arm and begins
to swing, with sort of rhythmic apology
for the prematureness of the embrace.
She timidly places her hand in his and
mdulates slightly in sympathy with his
impotence.
AT last the leader of the orchestra looks
Significantly around his little band of
artists, mods his head upon his violin,
draws his bow with an emphatic gesture
the couples in the room have caught the
rhythm of the music; the others swing
hOpeIessly round, changing step and
humping into each other, till something
like a cOnglOmerated deadlock ensues in
one part of the room, and the dancers
composing it disenga9e themselves and
wander away with many bushes to
more open space, where they try it again.
Nobody seems to notice the little by
play. All are dancing or trying to dance
and have enough to do to attend to their
own motions. Here is a couple neither
of whom know how to waltz or have the
slightest idea of the magic power of
rhythm but that does not seem to dis
tllrb them i'll the least Round and
round they swing. executing the simplest
lIrd of circle with endless repetition.
Presently they both grow so dizzy that
they stagGor against the wall and stand
there painting and perspirin@ till their
cur7ililr1-iurrn ;pud their breath Is rPCOY-
cred, when they launch upon a new Sc
ries of revolutions.

watch. They do not adopt the limp,

The Complaints of Labor.

T. X. Foster, secretary Of the Fedora
ton of Trade and Labor Unions of Mass
achUsetts, Ill his testimony before the U.
S. Senate Committee on Education and
Labor, spoke Of the black-listing system
i'll the New England mills, and said that
employees who had been prominent in
labor organizations during the strikes,
were put on the black lists, and no mat
ter how good workmen they might be.
they could not find employment after
ward. He cited the case of the strike in
the Pacific mills at Lawrence, Mass,
last year, in illustration of this system
TO cure existing evils, Mr.. Foster rec
commended the following remedies as the
most practicable and desirable at pres
ent: The establishment of a National
bureau of labor statistics; the establish
ment of boards Of arbitration whenever
practicable: the enforcement of the Ma
tional Eight-HOur law; the abolition of
child labor, 50 far as possible, by legis-
lation, repeal of all conspiracy" laws
which interfere with the right of work
mgmen to combine for their own protcc-
ton, and the incorporation of their
unions like other corporations, and the
abolition Of thl convict labor contract
system.
Senator Blair read a letter from the
witnesses now in attendance, saying it
was evident that the great pressure of
business in the Senate at this late stage
of the session, will not leave sufficient
time for them to present their views full
ly. and therefore suggesting that their
examination be postponed to some more
convenient season. The committee
thcroupon agreed that it was impossible
at this time to give the witnesses the
necessary attention. and dismissed them
with the understanding that they shall
be given precedence i'll the future hear

4 Story Denied

The assertion that the soldiers of the
guard at President Garfeld's tomb open
the coffin, identify the body and ex-
change receipts as often as they relieve
each other, is explicitly contradicted by
Lieutenant Burbank, the officer in
charge. This is the order of the Secre-
tary Of War: "Until otherwise ordered
by competent authority, no one, save
Mrs. Garfield, the wife of the late Presi-
dent, must be allowed to view the re-
mains in your charge" Lieutenant Bur
bank mas assured a correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press that the order is rig
orously observed, and that no one except
Mrs. Garfield is allowed upon any con
sideration whatever, to enter the vault.

Wooden Ship HuiIdIng in Maine.

In an extended review Of wooden shin
building in Bath. Maine, the Boston
AdUcytiScJ shows that Bath is not only
the greatest wooden ship building place
in the United States, but the greatest in
the world. The value of the shipping
built there within a century past is est
mated to be upward of 500, 600, coo. The
largest annual production was III 1854,
when g., 327 tons were built, or 81 YES
sells. OF this number 50 were ships. In
the ten years ending 1910 the building
amounted to 69, $50 tons. The next de
cade showed a gain of about roper cent.
the total being 11S, 1872 tons. Between
1850 and 1860 the product nearly trebled,
and reached 324, $50 tons. The war
period brought the yield of the next term
down to 1913 $50, but between 1870 and
1880 there was a gain of 49, per cent,
giving to5al for-tAat period Of 225, O46
tons. During the past year the tonnage
of vessels launched at Bath was 80. ESQ,
with vessels of 13, $40 remaining on the
stocks. The cost of a completed wooden
ship, or other new vessel, is reckoned at
from $50 to $55 ton.
The vessels launched last year at all
the Maine ship yards gave total tonnage
of 81, 567 tons, with 23,O16 tons ON the
stocks. The official report Of the wood
en- ship bmlding Of the whole country
for the year ended June 30th, 1881,
places Maine at the head, with 41,374
tons Next in rank is Michigan, with
1852 tons. Then come Massachusetts,
with 4. 723 tons; Wisconsin, 3, 429 tons;
Pennsylvania, 3,278; and CalifQfnia, 3, 1877
