An exchange says Gen. Logan summed up the civil service reform
 policy of the Cleveland admins
 tration very accurately in his Bos- ton speech. The law is being co = strued, he said, to the effect that every man that voted the republi- can ticket at the last election com mitscd an offense heretofore un- known to law r politics, to wit, offensive partisanship. In other words, under pretext of removing public officers only for cause, the president has ap- piled all ex post facto tes. which places evero Repuclican's neck in the moose. The injustice Of such 8 pro ceeding goes without saying; and to cal 1t reform is simply to insult the popular intelligence.

DIR. Cages Singular Success.


Last week DR.. Gage again in Montpeiier and
Burlington and a still greater thrOng of patients
consulted him than at any proceeding visit. His
practice is among our best families who already
realizing that the efficacy of the doctors peculiar
herbal treatment, send their friends to him in
great numbers. One well known Montpelier resi-
dent who has spared neither time NOr money and
who had travelled thousands of miles in quest of
health alrendv reports most remark bile results
from DR.. Cages treatment and lady on Church
st burlington, reports her cure after having been
the rounds OF The local physicians of that and other
cities. Certainly DIR. Gage has abundant reason 10
be proud OF his achievements. He came tO Yer.
mont an entire stranger and by his candOr, honest
dealings and skill has built up practice second to
none in the state. 1t is not strange that people
were little slow at first to accept his treatment
tor the country has been overrun with unpIinci-
pied charla tar who have imposed upon and dis
gusted the community. 1t speaks well for the doc

The New Savings Bank Building
Another Business Block Completed

Another Business Block Completed.
The Passumpsic savings bank will
open business in their new Main street
block next Monday. The block is a
handsome and wellbuilt three-stOry
structure of 30 feet front by 60 in depth,
located south of and adjoining Walk
er's block 1t is made of brick with
granite trimmings. The bank will Oc-
cupy the ground floor for its own bust
ness. The counting room is about 30
by 40 feet, well lighted, and conven-
ly finished in cherry, including the
panelled wainscoting around the room,
the counters, the doors, and the elab-
crate and tasteful counter front, the
upper portion of which is to be filed
with glass. This counter extends
| through the centre of the room. The
treasurer will have his desk near the
front windows, and the long working
desk is placed along the back of the
| room. The floors are of birch. Open
ing from the counting room is fire
proof vault IL by IA feet, in which is
one of Halls fire. proof safes. also a
Damon's automatic burglar proof safe
with Holmes electric time lock. The
directors room, directly in rear of the
counting room, is also finished in cher
ry, and is Is by 30 feet in size. Both
rooms have ornamental ceilings of cor
| rugated iron, and each has a marble
mantel and fireplace.
On the second floor are two large,
pleasant offices, and on the third a
convenient tenement of seven rooms.
| These have not yet been rented. There
are suitable closet and toilet cOnven-
fences on each floor. The building is
heated by steam, and is exceptionally
well lighted throughout.
The bank bought the entire lot be-
tween Flint's drug store and Walkers
block, and has utilized the extra space
in rear of the new building by erecting
a twO-and-a- half story tenement house
not yet completed, which will contain
three tenements. The cost of the lot
and both buildings will be about $I5,-

himself. His master has only to ask
him if he wants to get some meat, and
the dog at once becomes all anima-
ton, runs for his basket, and asks to
go in a noise that is as near speech as
a dog can come to it. After getting
some meat in this way a few days ago,
he carried it across the road TO the
grass in front of the Episcopal church,
where he took out the meat and ate
it, and instead of running off and
leaving the basket, as most dogs would
have done, he thOughtfnlly picked it
up and carried it back to the store.
Whenever the fire alarm sounds Rex
is much excited and banks loudly,
though he never notices the nightly
trial of the alarm at o'clock, or the
ringing of the church bells. On a re-
cent night he woke the family by
barking without apparent cause, but
in the morning they learned that the
alarm had been given at that hour for
the fire in the Clark avenue tenement
house, unheard by them. The dog
never objects to the approach of re-
specially dressed persons, but let
tramp come and he plants himself in
their path and growls so ominously
that they promptly retire. He never
harms anyone, however. He always
growls at the scent of a coon skin over
coat, but pays no attention to the
wearer of buffalo coat. He is a good
rat catcher.
Few dogs understand so readily
what is said to them. We were in the
bakery the other day and Mr.. Sanborn
said, "Rex, get my CAPT" The dog
didn't know where it had been left and
started for the corner of the store
where his masters coat lay. Not
finding the cap there, he ran to the
desk, saw it on the counter, and
brought it at once. "Get my shoes !"
his master than said, and Rex bounded
down stairs. They were not in the
usual place, and the dog first brought
IA basket, but being sent back, in a
short time brought one Over-shOe and
then the other. Mr.. Sanborn may
drop a glove on going out of the store
and on reaching home tell the dog of
his loss, and he will at once run back
and fetch it home. Calling him to the
store door and pointing to the horse
standing outside, Mr.. Sanborn said,
"Jump on the horse!" and the dog
readily obeyed, first lying on the
horses back and then sitting bolt up
right, as if all ready for a horseback
ride. He and the horse are good
friends, the latter paying no atten ton
to the dogs sudden leap upon his
back Rex is also a warm friend of his
masters cat and while ago nearly
demolished dog larger than himself
who ventured to assault his feline
friend.

ARBOR DAY.


Vermont's first ArbOr day was as
well observed locally as could be ex
pected of new holiday, without any
organized plan made for its obser-
vance. Quite a number of individuals
set out trees on their premises, and %
were planted about the Catholic church
and grounds. The tree planting at
Union school Thursday is elsewhere de-
scribed. All the schools were closed
on Friday and the scale works shut
down. The academy continued it's
usual sessions. The Athen8um was
closed, and the stars and stripes flung
to the breeze above it in honor of the
day. The day was pleasant but cold.
Several pine trees were planted about
the Universalist church, besides a
number of rose bushes and shrubs.
AS the holiday comes pretty early for
this part of the state, our people should
remember that its good purposes can
be realized equally well by planting
trees later in the season.

Another Railroad Accident.
a Lake Road Freight Cuts a Passumpsic
Freight in Two at the Crossing.
Man Hurt

Our village was excited last evening
by the report on the street that there
had been collision of two trains al
the grade crossing half mile below
the station in this place, and one man
injured. 1t proved too true. 1t seems
that regular freight train over the
Lake road approached the crossing al
| the same time as an extra freight train
south over the Passumpsic. They
both stopped and whistled, according
to law, and it is claimed both whistled
Mt the same instant, so that the engi-
neers of neither train heard the other,
and as the high embankment prevent
ed them seeing each other, they started
up to pass the crossing. The Pas
sumPsic train reached the crossing
first, and when the Lake road engi-
neer first saw the train athwart his
path he was within a few feet of it.
Both he and the fireman jumped and
saved their necks. The engine, the
"GOv. Hendee," struck the third car in
the Passumpsic train and after cutting
it in two was derailed and striking the
little switch house partially demolished
it and ran over the dump into the
meadow. Some six cars were wrecked.
The one cut in two was loaded with
paper pulp, and others were loaded
with lumber, cedar posts, etc. Henry
Barney, brakeman on the Lake road
train, was caught at the brake between
the cars, and his legs bruised and bad
ly squeezed, but the surgeon says no
bones are broken and his injuries are
not serious. The Passumpsic track
was cleared so that the rails were re-
placed and trains could again pass soon
after midnight. The damage to the
Lake road engine and the cars of both
roads is estimated at two thousand
dollars or more.
James Dea was engineer of the
"GOv. Hendee" and Fred Herring of
the Passumpsic train. Thomas Burke,
the fiagman, had gone to supper. We
do not know the tiagman's instructions.
but as the mixed train on the Passump
sic which passed at six o'clock carried
a signal indicating that train was to
follow, it would seem to have been his
duty to have remained at his post at
least, until one of the trains had come
in. Had the train run into been a
passenger, the result must have been a
fearful destruction of life. This acct
dent will probably result either in
keeping a fiagman at the crossing or
doing away with the crossing altogeth-
er as should have been done in the
first place.
Hundreds of people, including many
ladies, visited the scene of the wreck
during the evening, and some remained
and Witnessed the work until the track
was cleared.
