4 Simple Method Of Making Wine

Says an Atlanty (Ga.) housekecper:
II visited friend recently, and she
gave me glass of wine, 1t was Of q
pale amber tint. and had all the sparkle
and delicacy of flavor of champaign,
and when opened popped aud loudly.
1t was effective, though mild as stimu-
liant, and thought it very fine. | asked
what variety of grape it was made
from, and my friend told me it was
made of rose leaves. "Take the freshly
picked leaves, she said, and put into
a jar alternately layer of leaves and
sugar and pour over a little cold water.
In four days strain, let stand a week
and then bottle for use. The wine is a
delightful beverage. !"

HOW TO STOP A PAPER.

There is one easy and effectual way
to discontinue newspaper. First,
pay up all arrearages, if any, and then
ask the publisher to cease sending 1T.
If another issue is sent, refuse to take
it out of the post office and inform the
postmaster why. The postal law re-
quires the postmaster to then send an
official notice to the publisher stating
that his paper directed to Mr.. Blank
remains dead in the Office and that he
discontinue the same. If a publisher
continues to send his paper after such
a proceeding it is at his loss.
If these simple directions are follow
ed there will be no difficulty in stop
ping any newspaper. The trouble is
gent pOstmasters and rascally publish
ers. A good many subscribers wait
till they owe from three weeks to two
months and then order their paper
discontinued. That is not an honor
able thing to do, and many publishers
refuse to be swindled in that way.
Then there are negligent postmasters
who fail to inform publishers, as they
are required to do. Again, there is an
occasional publisher who will never
stop a paper if he thinks he can collect
the bill. A man was in this Office
the present week and said he had been
thirteen years trying to stop the Great
Northern Blower but as yet without
success Another man said he had
been sued for six years subscription to
the Vermont Smut Mill, not one num-
Der of which he had ever seen, as it
was sent to town where he formerly
lived. He foolishly paid $40 rather
than stand trial.
All this is most dishOnorable and
rascally business and it is mentioned
here for the instruction and protection
of the public. Subscribers have no
difficulty in stopping the CaledOnian.
Fortunately they do not want to stop
it. The universal testimony is that
they ''cant keep house without it,"
Yet it is we'll to know how to stop a
paper if one wants to.

Judge Ross on Executing Law.

Judge Ross, who has been holding
county court in Orange county, rather
startled the bar and others in the court
room on Wednesday by decision in
regard to some liquor cases which
were on the calendar for trial. Dur
ing the call of the docket, according to
the Free Press's account, in one of
these liquor cases the respondents
counsel said that he would have the
bonds called. Judge Ross inquired if
respondent was in the state and being
told that he was, said that the bonds
might be called if counsel wished, but
that mittimus would Immediately is
sue to bring respondent into court, as
it was the purpose of the law to pun
ish the offender, not to license the of
fence. Were the bonds called and for
feited and the respondent allowed to
60 clear, it would be impossible ever
to get conviction of a first offence in
liquor selling and thus our prollibitory
statute would operate merely as Ii
cense law. This holding of Judge
Ross, if adhered to, will have a salu-
tary effect, for it has long been a Gus
tom in this and other counties to treat
a forfeiture of his bonds as sufficient
penalty for respondents offence, so
much so, indeed, that he has scarcely
ever been re-arrested after his bonds
have been paid.
1t would seem then that the one
thing necessary to make the prohibit
tory law operative is for the officers of
the law TO carry out its provisions and
penalties; and the temperance people
generally will thank Judge Ross for
his sensible and just ruling.

NEWS OF THE WEEK.
Three Disastrous Accidents.

A Chicago limited train from the
west running at the rate of so miles an
hour, collided with ''douhle header
freight train four miles west of Mead
Vile, Pa, on the New York, Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio railroad Saturday.
Five persons were instantly killed and
IL wounded. Both trains presented a
terrible scene of destruction. The in
iured passengers were all in the smok-
er, which was literally ground to
kindling wood. The day coach and
both sleepers remained on the track
and the passengers in them escaped
uninjured. The blame is said to rest
with the engineer and conductor OF
the freight train, who were running on
express time.
The north and south bound cannon
ball trains on the Cincinnati Southern
railroad collided Saturday at | p. m. at
the Tennessee and Kentucky state line.
Eleven persons including eight pas
sengers are known to have been killed
outright and many injured.
A mixed train on the Pittsburg and
Western road composed of seven
freight and two passenger cars went
through trestle near ST. Petersburg,
Pa, Friday evening and was precipi-
tated 30 feet to the bottom of the gully.
The wreck took fire from the car
stoves and was burned. The passen-
gers escaped, though several were
injured.
The Pope's Jubilee.
The pontificial mass which marks
the entrance of Pope Leo XIII. upon
the 50th year of his priesthood in the
Roman Catholic church was celebrated
in st. Peters church at Rome SIM
day morning in splendid state and
pomp. Sixty thousand admission tick
cts had been issued and the cathedral
was packed. His holiness was received
with loud and long continued shouts
of "LOng live the pope" The music
of the mass was deeply impressive and
many people in the audience were af-
fected. The pope blessed all present,
and left the cathedral at ii a. M. 1t
is expected that the value of the gifts
to the pope in connection with his
golden jubilee will represent $4,000, :

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The death at Boston on Sunday of
Hon. William Parsons, the eminent
lecturer, removes one who has delight
ed many Vermont audiences and who
has lectured in st. JOhnsbury.
Readers of the interesting articles on
Russian provincial prisons by George
KEENAN, in the Century magazine will
not be surprised to learn that the Rus
sian press censors excised the Russian
article in the December number of that
magazine.
Rev. Arthur Knapp has gone as Uni
tartan missionary to the Japanese. On
his departure he said he was going
there to confer with the Japanese on
matters of religion. "COnfer" is good.
Imagine the Rev. Knapp "conferring'
with brother of cannibalistic tenden-
cies in some of the Pacific islands.
The Methodist church in Newbury
has been presented with Il bell weigh
ing 1000 pounds, by Freeman j. Doe
of Boston. The old bell, which called
its worshipers together, and the stu
dents of Newbury seminary to their
rotations for more than half a century,
has been cracked for some time and is
nearly worthless.
James Russell Lowell we'll said in
his Boston address before the tariff re-
form league: "1f we are not to expect
any other immediate result from the
Presidents message than that best re-
suit of all human speech, that it awak-
en- thought, we can at least already
thank it for one signal and unques-
tionable benefit"
People who arose before the sun in
Southern California two weeks ago
were surprised to see the mercury at
30 and ice formed at considerable
thickness. Notwithstanding the cold,
it is asserted that the orange crop is
not injured. A "reliable correspOn-
dent" on the spot writes that there is
no winter in that country without a
freeze, let the Yeatber records say
what they will.
