Hereditary.

In an italian garrison there was private
soldier named Ugolino. One of the officers
took the soldier aside one day and asked
him;
"Are you a descendant of the famous
Count Ugolino, about whom Dante wrote7'
"No,n replied the soldier, ''sll my apces-
tors were poor people"
II refer to Count Ugolino who was starved
to death with his sons in the tower of Pisa"
''If he didn't get enough to eat, very likely
he was an ancestor of mine after ALL" re-
piled the honest soldier.--Texas Siftings. /.

a chance. The lottery man objected on
the ground that he had no guarantee that
if they lost they would pay. Miller's
companion whispered to him to go to the
Mercer bank and draw $1,000. The old
man went to the Mercer First national
bank, told the cashier that he had sold
his farm and drew $1,000. Upon return
ing to the confidence men he displayed
the money, when they took it from him
and skipped. Chase was given and the
rig was captured at Pulaski, but the

The grand jury of Crittenden county,
Ark, which has been investigating the
Punishment of Is negroes by an armed
organization, has returned nearly 40 in
dictments. 1t was found that anonymous
notes had been sent to number of white
men by negroes giving the whites five
days to leave the county. Upon receiv-
inn the threatening epistles, the whites
met, armed and escorted out of the county
the negroes implicated. The grand jury
succeeded in tracing the anonymous
threats to the office of the county clerk,
David Ferguson, one of the IS negroes
banished. His office was opened and
fragments of anonymous notes which
evidently had not seemed to be satisfac-
tory, were found on the floor. Experts
pronounced the handwriting that of J.
w. Ramsay, young South Carolina
negro in the employ of Ferguson as a
clerk. The immediate motive for the
sending of the warnings was found in
the fact that Ferguson and d. w. Lewis,
the negro county Judge, had been indict-
ed by former grand jury for habitual
drunkenness, the penalty for which was
removal from office. The intention was
to create reign of terror and break the
force of the prosecution.

THE BRISTOL RALLY,
A BIG GATHERING THERE LAST sATUR
DAY.

A BIG GATHERING THERE LAST sATUR-
DAY.
The rally held at Bristol last Saturday
by the Republicans of that town and
vicinity was an unqualified success both
as regards the attendance and the exer-
cises. Not only was the town very fully
represented in the audience which as
sembled at Holly hall in the afternoon to
hear the speaker, but there were many
present from Lincoln, Starksboro, New
Haven, Monkton, Vergennes and Middle
bury. Our Bristol correspondent else
where describes somewhat the decora-
tions of the hall. Music was provided
by the Citizens band. Seated on the
stage with President Dean of the local
club, the speakers and others. were % of
the men who voted for Harrison in 1910.
The leading speech was made by Hon.
w. p. Dillingham; of Waterbury, the
Republican candidate for governor. who
made an able speech and a good impress
sion, as he is sure to do wherever he
appears. He said, in substance:
am exceedingly glad to find such an
air of confidence among the Republicans
assembled here, and can see that you
are looking forward to another glorious
victory, as the Republicans are every
where. The Republican party should be
successful because it has always been on
the right side of every question affecting
the welfare and prosperity of the people
of this country. He spoke of the birth
of the party in 1856. and rehearsed its
great achievements since then, taking oc-
cason to compliment the Democracy of
Vermont on their constant loyalty to the
country. and inviting them to leave the
national Democracy and join with us in
protecting now the industrial welfare of
the land. Continuing, he said: The
country has prospered because labor has
been dignified and the equality of man
recognized. 1t is gratifying for Ameri-
cans to know that our prosperity has
been such that we find home market
Tor 30 per cent of our manufactured and
farm products. This home market has
been built up and maintained under the
Republican policy Of protection Mr.. Dill
lingham showed conclusively that the
Democratic majority in the House is
wholly controlled by the free trade adj
vocates at the South, and that members
of the Presidents cabinet, the speaker of
the House and the chairman of the reso-
lutions committee at st. Louis are men,
bers of the Golden club of England. an
organization that exists only for the
dissemination of free trade theories in
America and the securing of a free market
here for English goods. He presented
an array of figures which could not fail
of showing plainly the Democratic posi-
ton on this great question of tariff, a
position which favored English interests
in preference to those of America, and he
was sure that Vermont would take adj
vantage of her opportunity in September
to emphasize her belief in protection and
her loyalty to the Republican party.
