"A Bit of Romance, from Vermont


Last summer some Burlington, VT,
people were visiting in Il western town,
and there formed the acquaintance of
furniture dealer, who had recently
buried his second wife. They joked
him Il little about his future matrimo-
nial prospects, and he candidly admit
ted that he would like to marry again,
and asked them if they knew an eligi-
BILE lady. Subsequently he looked at
their photograph album, in which was
the picture of an unmarried lady Of
Burlington which took the widower's $
fancy, and he was told her name. The
Burlington people thought no more of
it, but after their return homo were
surprised to learn that the western
gentleman had opened a correspond
ence with the lady alluded to. The
course of true love ran smoothly, the
western widowcr came to Burlington
last week, saw his ladyloYe for the first
time, aud the marriage took place on
Tuesday, the happy couple starting Mt
once for the west.

1t is now expected that James A. Con-
ley, recently appointed solicitor of the
United States treasury, will decline the
appointment. 1t will be remembered that
but few weeks ago Congressman Bur
rows Of Michigan politely declined the
same position, and from present appear
ances President Arthur will be compelled
to look over Ohio for all applicant, or one
who would be willing to fulfill the duties

The Madison Leader is evidently pros
