Giving a -stayer" a Few Hint.

Young Spoonogle never knows when
to lesye when he calls on a young
lady. He likes the sound of his own
voice so well that he talks ON and on,
while the poor girl grows light-headed
with the tax on her strength. and wish
es the mantelpiece Of Elijah would fall
on the tiresome caller.
There is q young lady on Lafayette
avenue who made up her mind to give
Spoonogle a lesson. So, last Sunday
night when he called, she was as cor
dial as possible up to IL o'clock. Then,
having had a four-volume history of
Spoonogle's life, with an extended
account of his influence in politics and
business. she began to get dizzy and
have a ringing in her ears. At that
moment her young brother rushed into
the room and said hurriedly: ."Pa
wants the morning papers, sis r.
''Look in the vestibule, Willie" she
answered gently. Il think heard the
boy leaving them some hours ago."
Spoonogle never took the hint, but
drawled on about the skating rink, and
what figure he cut on skates. The
hOAI iutcIIuptiOu WAS from tne 0eau OF
the house, who entered briskly rubbing
his hands.
Good morning-good morning." he
said cheerily. "Ha Spoonogle, you're
out early. Well, early bird, etc. It's
going to be a fine day from present ap-
pearances.
Spoonogle was dazed. but he con-
cluded the old man had been drinking,
and sat back with '.come one. come
all, this rock shall fly from its firm
base as soon as yours truly" air that
was decided and convincing.
A half hour passed and the mother
hurried in.
Dear me, I'm late," she said, as
she entered. II smelled the coffee an
hour ago and knew breakfast was
waiting, but-oh! Good morning Mr..
Spoonogle."
Then the sweet youth took the hint,
and drawing himself together, he got
out into the hall and opened the front
door just as the hired girl rung a bell
and the small boy yelled Breakfast"
over the balusters.

The Railroad.

In response to petition from citizens Of
Brattleboro, supported by the expressed sen
timent Of the meeting held last Saturday
evening, the selectmen have decided to call
special town meeting 10 be held on Monday,
June 16, to see if the town will once more vote
to aid the Brattleboro d Bennington railroad
In our local columns We give a careful sum
mary of the discussion at the railroad meet
ing referred TO, and in this issue we also
print letter from Mr.. Crosby summarizing
the arguments in favor of the road, and one
from Col Fuller giving comprehensive and
valuable statistics bearing on the subject.
The facts about the road, in short, are all be-
fore the people, and they demand the serious
consideration Of every voter The time has
gone by, if one ever existed, when there is
either disposition or need 10 ooeree public
sentiment on the local railroad question. The
success Of the Brattleboro a Whitehall road
hAsdemonstrated the feasibility of thenarrow-
gauge system, as well as the importance of
branch line of road in building up remote
and declining towns and in helping the bust
ness of the centre of trade from which such
q line radiates. All the West River valley
towns have been helped by the Brattlsboro
y Whitehall road, but the road has benefited
Brattleboro most of all. The question which
the friends of the Brattleboro a. Bennington
road ask the people of Brattleboro to decide
is whether they can afford not to give their
aid and assure the building of this one radi-
ating arm which is now needed to permanent
Iy centre At Brattieboro the trade and friend
~ interchange of the whole county, save on
ly that of less than a hAitdozen towns on
our northern border which find their natural
outlet at other points.

The senate committee to investigate the
Danville, Va, riot submit tied their report on
Tuesday. The committee find that the riot
or massacre had its origin in political causes,
that it was premeditated, and that its purpose
was to intimidate the blacks and produce
frenzy of feeling among the whites in all parts
Of the state, which would drive them to for
sake all alliance with the blacks and vote
strictly with their own race. No evidence was
found that the negroes fred a shot until after
the whites fired the first general volley. The
fire bell was rung, not for fire, but as a Sc
cret signal for the white military company.
The whites came rapidly from all directions,
and arms we're distributed among those who
had none from the shops and stores. The
committee believe that remedy for such a
state of things as the investigation disclosed
ought to be found under the provision OF the
United States constitution that when the right
to vote is denied or in any way abridged, in
any state. the basis of representation shall be
reduced accordingly. Senator Vance will sub
init minority report.

Ferdinand Ward, whose rascality brought
about the failure of Grant a Ward, and James
D. Fish, president of the Marine bank which
went down in the same crash, are both under
arrest and in jail. Ward admits that be had
known for long time that the firm was in
solvent and that he had repeatedly raised
large sums of money by false representations
about large government and city contracts
and opportunities to make large profits by
mining and other speculations. Mr.. Fish tries
unsuccessfully to help his own case by charg-
ing Gen. Grant with writing letters assuring
him that certain government contracts" were
all right and that the firm of Grant a Ward
was financially sound. 1t is unfortunate for
Gen. Grant that his efforts to establish his
sons in business should have led him into q
connection like that with the unprincipled
Ward but no unprecedented person believes
for a moment that Gen. Grant Intentionally
lent himself to any dishonest scheme. The
whole affair was gigantic confidence game,
and Gen. Grant was led into it through that
same blind confidence in human nature which
was SO often his bsne in his public career.

The New York Tribune, which is the lead
ing supporter of Mr.. Blaine's canvass, states
the case for him by saying that the real ques-
ton for the Chicago convention is, Who can
carry Maine in September and West Virginia
and Ohio in October? By implication the
Tribune replies that Mr.. Blaine is the only
man who can do this, and clinches its argu-
ment by these further questions:
''Does any practical politician believe that II Maine,
Ohio and West Virginia all go Democratic next fail,
any Republican candidate carry New York ? Does
anybody doubt that any Republican candidate should
hrst carry Maine Ohio and West Virginia. he can then
carry New York -? What, then Is the great question
for the Chicago convention Is it who might proba-
bly, carry New Yorko is it who can rst carry Maine
Ohio and West virginia.
This is q skillful statement Of the case, but
we nevertheless do not believe that the Trib-
une's logic will convince the convention of
the necessity or wisdom Of nominating Mr..
Blaine
