Lost Her Teeth Out of the Car Win
| dow.
From the New York Evening Sun.
"A woman I'm the forrid car wants
you right straight Off" said brake
man to conductor on'a West Shore
express that was flying over the road
day or two ago in the neighborhood
of Kingston.
A minute later and the startled
conductor stood at the side of the
woman, who seemed to be in dire dis
tress, and the following conversation,
that shook laughter out of the most
taciturn present, took place:
~ want you to stop this car imrne-
diately, do you hear? Immediately,
/ say. 1 just lost all my teeth out Of
this window, and you must go
straight back and find them for me-"
The long-suffering conductor prom
ised to telegraph back and have a
man sent out to look for them. The
woman had fallen asleep with her
head resting on the window, q snore
opened her mouth wider than usual,
and hence the catastrophe. The
missing articles have not turned up.
Legends of Saints and Animals.
In most interesting article in the
Catholic Churchman we read the fol-
lowing legends of saints who seemed
to dwell in close commun ion with the
beasts and birds. They seemed to
live nearer the heart of nature and
perhaps found sympathy in the Great
ures that toll and reap not:
st. Gregory relates that st. Basil's
grandmother, st. Macrena, having
taken refuge in forest during perse-
cution, was fed by the stays.
St. Roch, who is usually represent
ed with his dog, was fed during the
plague by the faithful beast, who went
daily to the city for his masters loaf
of bread.
Tradition records the fondness of
one of the twelve apostles-the loved
apostle John-for animals. Every
one has heard of the tame partridge |
he took pleasure in feeding. He was
seen tending his bird by a passing
hunter, who expressed surprise to see
the apostle, so renowned for his age |
and sanctity, thus employing his time. |
st. John asked him if he always kept |
his bow bent. THAT would soon rem
der it useless" said the hunter. $50 |
do unbend my mind in this way |
for the same reason you unbend your |
bow-to prevent its becoming USE
less" Perhaps he derived his love
for animals from his ancestress, Re-
becca, who showed the kindness of |
her nature in offering to water the
camels of the stranger. Eliezer saw
it, and began wooing her for his mas
ter's son.
There are numerous instances in |
which animals instinctively betook
themselves to the saints for prOtec-
ton. A hind, pursued by dogs, took
refuge with st. Giles in his cave near
the mouth of the Rhone. The hunters,
on the track, found the
beast crouching before the
saint, who protected her. The hind
with st. Giles, who fed on
it's milk. This saint is represented in
paintings with the animal beside
him.
The marine animals would fawn on
st. Cuthbert while he was praying by
night on the island of Farne. The
elder ducks are called by the islanders
to this day "St. Cuth bert's ducks"
So the nuns of Whitby "exulting
told"
How sea fowls pinions fail,
AS over Whitby's towers they sail,
And sinking down, with futtering
faint,
They do their homage to the saint.

Here is mystery. Had Mr.. Proctor
left the ranks of the republican party
because of its attitude in relation to
the tariff or to the temperance ques-
tions we could comprehend it and re-
spect him for standing by his convic-
tions, but why any man should take
such action for local reasons is an I'M
fathomable mystery.
1t seems to us that all Vermonters,
regarding the situation from a local
standpoint simply, have a special rea-
son for giving their adherence to the
republican party with all its shOrtcom-
ings, and for desiring Mr.. Cleveland's
overthrow, in that the President has,
SO far as the national government is
concerned, turned the state over to Mr..
Atkins, practically saying, in defiance
of all civil service reform and other
pledges, "Here, Vermont is of no use
to me, do as you will" Our Mont

exceptions, with remarkable fidelity.

driving thirty horses at headlong
speed around the quarter-mil race
track this famous young animal
trainers grandest achievement "E-
clipse," the trapeze-leaping pony +;
"Blondin," the rope walking horse !;
the great herd of dancing, fighting,
and pyramid elephants and the pic
turesque and Economically realistic ex-
hibition of the "Wild West" The
marvellous shooting of DR.. Carver, the
worlds champion rifle shot, is alone a
feature of surprising interest.

Life of Harrison.

1t is fortunate for the anxious public
that the life of the republican candi-
date for the presidency is being writ
ten by one who is a master of the best
English style, statesman, general
and diplomat, and above all lifelong
friend of Benjamin Harrison. Gen.
Lew Wallace needs no further intro
duction to the reading public, and his
forthcoming work will be published
about the first of September. The
book will consist of about 500 pages,
bound in cloth and handsomely stamp
ed in gilt. Besides steel plates of Gen.
Harrison and Mr.. Morton the book will
be fully illustrated with entirely new
portraits and cuts. The life of the
candidate occupies the bulk of the
book and includes two chapters on an
cestry, one upon his service in the war,
and an accurate account of his public
services including his work in the
senate. Other valuable matter in the
book is the life of Mr.. Morton, sketch
es of all the former presidents, the
Chicago platform and tables and valu-
able facts, the whole forming an inval-
liable handbook for campaign work.
The book is published by S. S. Scran-
ton & Co., of Hartford, CT, and sells
in cloth binding for 50. James E.
Taylor, who is canvassing this town

A Good Sign.

The republican senators have decid-
cided to- present tariff bill. Repre-
senting the party that in 1884 pledged
itself "tO correct the inequalities of the
tariff and to reduce the SURPLUS" this
is a very proper thing to do. Some
thing more than a mere negation is
necessary in order to meet the demo-
Gratis and the Mills bill. The main
tenance of the protective principle and
the reduction of the surplus at the same
time is the problem that awaits them.
By framing bill that will meet both
these requirements the party will
strengthen itself and hold a somewhat
more consistent position than some of
the leaders maintain, who are content
with bowling ''free trade" every time
an effort is made to introduce a meas
ure looking to the reduction of the sur
plus. This decision on the part of the
republican senators is one of the best
signs of the present tariff discussion.

One of the more candid of the Wash

fully that the action of Senator Ed
munds on the Fuller case has not won

stickler for high character and ability
in judicial office, says this cOrrespon

mark.

than 20 days. The lawyers have been
watching the case with a good deal of
interest. The decision is adverse to
POmeroy and the public breathes
easier.
