The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1888-08-08

OUR readers have doubtless often noticed
that Hoods Sarsaparila is we'll spoken of
in the newspapers. The press is quick to
recognize merit, and does not hesitate to
give praise where it is due. The following
is from the Baptist Weekly, a leading re-
ligious paper; Advertising may bring an
article prominently before the public, but
no advertising can long help 1t If it has not
real merit. Hoods Sarsaparilla is we'll ad-
vertised, but the best proof of its value is
that so many persons use it on the recon-
nendations of friends who have proved its
peculiar virtues"

P0yyninS,S Land Sale.

On the 2lst. of April, spe cial free
trains will run from this city and
Virginia to convey the public to the
auction sale of lots in Powning's
addition, Reno.
1t is proposed to auction off $50
lots in the addition and there is
very likelihood of big crowd
being there to take a hand in the
alluring speculation. The addition
was very carefully selected and
the only habitable part OF the city
bordering the river with perfect
sewerage Pewning has showed great
enterprise in booming his land and
inside the year has sold nearly half
Of the addition. We advise Carson
people to 60 down and buy, for
money put there will stay inside
the State and be more permanent
than squandering it IN
the California land craze which is
now making this way.

FISH SPearing.

Complaint is made of the man.
| ner in which the Indians are allow.
ed 70 fish in the Truckee river. II
is stated that the tish-way at the
dam of the reduction works is moth
ing but a fish trap and every trout
which attem pts to ascend the stream
through it falls an easy victim TO
the Indian fisherman. The Fish
Commissioner or a deputy should
attend to the matter at once, as it
is almost impossible for a female,
laden with spawn, to escape the
hooks and grabbing iron of the in
dustrious buck lying i'll wait. An
other drive of fish will probably be
made from Pyramid lake in three
or four weeks, and unless proper
precautions are taken by those whose
business it is to attend to such mat
tiers will meet the same fate as the
present one. This question is one
which interests everyone living up
on the Truckee river, and Fish
Commissioner Cary can earn the
good viii and opinion of all true
sportsmen by giving it his prompt
Gazette.

| initiation of values from the star
end coupled with the most downright
robbery ever practiced Some
OF tho lot buyers have purchased
paper lots in paper towns, and are
unable even to find a foot of land
they purchased or else the titles
arc absolutely worthless.
Men have reached California
with 100000, got the speculative
fever invested all in inflated real
estate and to-day find themselves
working on ranches for 500, a
month.
The rascals who engineered these
swindles ought to be in the peniten-
tiary.
Another thing that is worse than
swindle is to continually blow
about the "glorious climate of Cali
fornia.
The climate is simply humbug.
Since the big irrigation schemes
have made Roadway the country
has been over-irrigated and as re-
salt the low lands OF the State have
been turned into marshes and with
the hot sun pouring on the saturat-
Ell soil miasma rises which sends |
its death ladened vapors over the |
whole country.

francisco too poor to get to the
ruit belt because of the high rail-
Dad fares and so the fruit rots on

much vegetable matter again fills

ence, and children die off.

NO ONE WAS HURT.

Last evening colored man came to the
police station and said taat "A man on
North Water just above Oak had at
tempted to shoot his wife.
Officer Charley Burrows went up to the
place designated and found the woman,
herself, who said that her name was Nc
Cutcheon, learned the facts of the affair.
Her husband, who is railroad employe,
she said, came home some what intoxi-
Gated about o'clock. After ranting about
for some time in the house he pulled out a
revolver and fired; she did not know
whether at her or not. The ball, how
ever, did not strike her or do much damage
of any kind.
McCutcheon, himself, as soon as he
fired left the house and could not be found
last night by the police when wanted. He
is believed, however, to be still around the
city somewhere concealed and only wait
ing until the tempest which he has stirred
up has subsidized
The neighbors say that he has habit of
now and then making things rather in
teresting in ii is family circle and say that
on the Fourth he came home and went
through with the same kind of perform
ance as on last night.

SERVED HIM RIGHT.

Some excitement was occasioned yester-
day evening by one-two Sullivan blows
administered by travelling man from
Chicago named wilkins, to an unknown
youth on East Douglas avenue Mr.. Will
kins and his wife were out walking and
had stopped at a stand to purchase some
fruit. Mr.. Wilkins went inside to settle
the purchases while his wife remained on
the sidewalk, when along came a youth,
with toothpick and crutch. He first leered
at and then approached the lady and was
just about TO address her when the hus-
band appeared on the scene. Noticing the
disguised expression on his wife's face,
Mr.. wilkins enquired the cause and before
the dudish youth could get out of reach he
was sprawling on the sidewalk. Mr.. Will
kins having completed the task of punish
ment quietly returned with his wife to
their hotel. Bystanders who saw that
youth get up from mother earth and get
out Of the neighborhood want to find him
to match him against any sprinter in the
state.

LOTS OF SHIPMENTS,

In conversation last evening Santa Fe
official remarked on the large numbers of
stock trains now going through Wichita
from the Indian Territory to Kansas City
and further east. During today alone, he
said, five trains of stock, averaging twenty
three cars each, went through over the
Santa Fe and he believed the Missouri Pa
cific and Rock Island were both doing
their share of the business 1.-The general
freight business of Wichita" said the
railroad man, lis picking up every day.
Merchandise of all kinds is being handled
in large quantities and judging by their
shipments the Wholesale houses of Wichita
must be doing thriving business with
the retail merchants of the towns in this
section of the country. The business" he
added, taken altogether, is very good for
this season of the year and it is improving
right along"
