BRANDING or THE CLUES.

Only two more games are to be played by the clubs of the Intercollegiate association, and there is not the slightest chance of a change in the standing of the leading clubs from that given below. It is quite likely that only one of the games will be played, however, as there is little chance of Harvard and Yale coming to any agreement as to where their game will be played on Thanks giving day, and unless it is settled by that day Yale will appear on the field and claim the game forfeited. In this case is will give Yale another victory and Harvard defeat. In any case the Yale men would not have much trouble in beating Harvard. The fol- lowing is the standing:

The Nicaragua Canal.

Worthy of more than passing notice
is the act introduced in both houses of
the legislature on Friday by Senator
Bates and Representative Hazen to in :
corporate the Maratime canal company
of Nicaragua. 1t will be remembered
that this is movement in which the
late Gov. Fairbanks took an active in
terest. The Nicaragua canal bill, in
cooperating Frederick Billings, HOr-
ace Fairbanks and % others, body
corporate, by the name of "The Mara
time canal company of Nicaragua" for
the construction and equipment of a
ship canal from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific ocean, either entirely through the
territory of the republic of Nicaragua,
or through Nicaragua and in part
through the territory of the republic of
Costa RIGA, was passed by the United
States senate in March by a unanimous
vote. 1t went to the house of repre-
sentatives and run foul of obstruc-
tiOnists, lost its place on the calendar
and it has not been possible to get a
vote on the measure.
Most of the men whose names appear
in the act are VermOnters, Gov. Fair
banks place in the list of incorpora-
tors being taken by Col. Franklin
Fairbanks. The capital stock is to
consist of 100000 shares of 800
each, with the privilege of increasing
to 100000. Subscription books for
shares, to be opened in Montpelier,
New York and other cities, and at Nj
caragua, the chief office to be located
at New York city.
AS soon as the gentlemen named or
ganize under their charter it is expect
ed that Hiram Hitchcock of New York
proprietor of the Fifth Avenue hotel,
will be made president of the company.

Fire in Fletcher,s Block.

Our village narrowly escaped seri-
Gus conflagration last Friday. About
3 D. m. fire was discovered in the
roof of the large building known as
Fletcher's block, bought about two
weeks ago by Geo. Ide for $4,000. A
general alarm was Immediately given
by blowing the whistle of the shifting
engine in the railroad yard and the
steam whistle at the shops. The fire
engine was at work in less than 10
minutes after the alarm was given aud
after sharp fight of 90 minutes the
time it seemed impossible to save the
building. Had this block burned the
large block owned by Ii. NJ. Nichols
must also have been destroyed. Ma
sonic hall, in the upper floor of
Fletcher's block, was badly damaged
by fire and water, the carpets and some
of the furniture being ruined. The
occupants of the building were III. L.
Parker, grocer, G.. S. LeBourveau,
druggist, Lyndonville National bank,
G.. w. Cahoon, attorney, John Bedard,
barber, and others, all of whom except
the bank, suffered more or less from
water and the damage done in the
hasty removal of the goods. After the
fire was extinguished the large crowd
present gave three hearty cheers for
the fire engine and three more for the
fremen. This compliment was de-
served, for both engine and men did
excellent work. We shall probably
hear no more sneering remarks about
the sold tub" for on this occasion it
saved our village from the loss of tens
of thousands of dollars worth of prop
erty. 1t is understood that Mr.. Ide is
insured for $1,000, and that all the oc-
cupants of the building have sufficient
insurance to cover their loss. The to-
tai loss of all the parties is estimated
at $4,000. Cause of fire unknown.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

A novel premium is the one offered
by l. S. johnson & Co., Boston, for
best results from use of Sheridan

For this winter 5000 in gold is offered,
in premiums from $50 down to S..

son closes April LIST.
Editor George w. Childs rejoices in
the fact that President Cleveland is 81
lent in this campaign. Silence is gold
en- and so is his $4,000 check. By the
way, Senator Hawley has looked up
the law on the subject and declares
that the contribution renders the pres
ident liable to fine and Imprisonment.
In case of Harrison's election Mont
pelier lady of democratic proclivities
is to marry prominent young man of
that vicinity. IF Cleveland is elected
the p. y. m. is to marry the young Ia
dy. Love doesn't seem to be blind in
this case for it is betting on a sure
thing.
AS soon as the republicans regain
their control of the house we shall ex-
pect that they will admit Dakota as a
state. 1t now has a population of
$40, 1893, or nearly twice that of Yer
mont. In area, 149, $50 square miles,
it is exceeded only by Texas and Cali

Senator Palmer of Michigan thinks

AS a result of the recent decisions in
the United States circuit court at Rut-
land in the cases of George w. Hendee,
receiver, VS.. a number of local and
other banks, depositors in the Vermont
National bank are informed that Re-
ceiver Hendee expects to pay divi-
dend of 25 per cent. about Nov. L.
This will make an aggregate of 673 per
cent. paid since the failure. Whatever
else is to be handed over to the depos-
itors must come from the sale of the
Boston, Portland and Montreal rail-
road bonds owned by the bank, and it
is hoped that enough will be realized
from their sale to nearly pay in full all
claims against the bank.

Internal machine under a pile of pa

fuse. Mr.. Newly took the machine

shape of cannon percussion cap
mounted on a block of wood. The cap

Woman,s acknowledgements.

A valued Correspondent, a devoted
friend of wOman's suffrage, writes that
just now the cause of woman's enfran-
enlistment is trembling in the balance
in Vermont. Petitions for municipal
suffrage have been presented in the
legislature, and bill granting the
same has been introduced in the house,
and the state press is urged to speak a
friendly word for the cause. In rela-
ton to the present contest over the
school question in Boston our CORE
spondent makes this point that is
worthy of consideration Ht
If it were possible to demonstrate
that Catholic women have more inter-

the right to express that interest /;

In the senate bill proper protection
is continued to all branches of Ameri-

more favorable to the agricultural in
