The Peak sisters from Alaska" made
a decided success of their entertainment
at the seminary last Friday evening.
The weather was not very propitious,
yet there was Il fine audience, both in
numbers and graces, and the result was
an addition to the "organ fund" $50
kindly and literally started by Mr., Jas.
Fl. Kellogg of Troy, N. Y } of $8l. The
young ladies' are entitled to a great zeal
of credit for their perseverance and
energy In the preparations. Miss Eva
II. Sibley was the pianist and musical
director, and brought her fine talents
INTO full play. Miss Jennie E. Robinson
was very pleasing as the elder Peake
sister, and stage manager, and gave the
history Of the family in such pathetic
manner as to draw tears from the entire
sisterhood, presumably 80, from the Wig.
orous use made of their handkerchiefs.
We cannot mention all the details, but
must speak Of the imitation OF the opera
by Miss Alice Roberts, the very fine
rendering of the "Old Sexton" by Miss
Mile Parsons, the Duet upon the piano
by Misses Severance and Roberts, the
duet upon the contra basso and accor.
deon by Misses Cammet and and Roberts.
with comb band accompaniment by
Misses Bamford, Morgan and Gardner.
A Cornet solo by Mr.. Geo. Worthington
of North Bennington was very fine
feature Of the entertainment. Refresh
ments were generously served, and the
young ladies were even more than we
promised.
Summer friends have come and are
coming. The families of Mrs. DR..
Clark, Mr.. Daniel Robinson, Mr.. E. NJ.
Green, and Mrs. Edmund Robinson have
arrived. Mrs, Cooper's and Rev. F. A.
Snively's families are expected to day,
and Mr.. J. Wool Griswold Saturday,
Mr.. Harry G. Shields and his bride will
occupy Mrs. Gardeners home upon their
return from their wedding tour.
Miss May Sanford is home from Vas
sar for the summer vacation. All are
welcome.
We are sorry to learn that Mrs. DR.. |
Morgan, who fell and broke her hip
few days since, is failing, and is not ex-
pected to live long. A fine, bright, |
genial, christian old lady, she will be
greatly missed. Her grandson, Frank
Z arrived Thursday evening from New
Haven.
Mrs j. r. TIllinghast has made too
short visit to her mother, Mrs. Swift.
and will return later for the summer.

however.

''MoItgaged Vermont farms - are some
thing one hears Of occasionally in ef-
forts to attract attention to the great OPP
portunities the West is said to offer to
husbandmen who wish to prosper.
1t is true hat millions of acres have
been opened in the West, under the
homestead act merely nominal prices,
and that other immense tri cts are soon
to be opened !; but facts show that West
ern farming is not all that it is some
times painted.
In Illinois, for instance, the best corn
producing area in the world, between
1870 and lSS0,the indebtedness on farms
increased about per cent, and between
1880 and 1887 it increased 81 per cent.
On Jan. |, 1899, there were in Illinois
92,7S7 mortgages on farms valued at
$l42 400, 300 and of the "a, 694, 172 acres
in the state 90 28 per cent. are under
mortgage. In Michigan the situation is
worse, and in other Western states as
bad
Vermont farmers who have become
FESTIVE under the glowing pictures
drawn Of Western prosperity will do
well to ponder these figures. Having
done 80, let them put more brains into
farming than eyer before, be satisfied
with their lot and take confidence in the
future that it needs only their own en-
ergy and thrift aud industry to make
full rich rewards,

heavily in debt. Virginia has funded

SOUR GRAPES : !

Capt. Tiffany has proposition from
reliable parties to install in Bennington
fire alarm plant that will fully meeI
the needs Of the community, for the sun
of $500. 1t contemplates eight alarm
boxes to be located by the fire wardens
enunciators and gongs in each OF the fire
companies houses, and a striking at.
tachment for any one of the church
bells, together with wire, bat cries and
all in working order for use. Capt, Tiff
fanny offers If the fire companies will de
vote 800 each Of the money they receive
from the village for services, or total
Of $500, that he will raise the balance by
subscription. ALI companies, save the
Starks, have agreed to the proposition
1t will pay the Stsrks to fall into line
RefOrmer of Nay 81.
The above assault upon the Starks
may be explained from the fact that
Editor Livingston once desired to be-
come a Stark himself, but received a
cold shoulder from the members of the
company.
At the time OF writing, the Starks, in
common with the other companies,
have taken no action whaterer upon the
proposition Of Mr.. Tiffany, and the Edi-
tor of the RefOrBler abode not in the
truth, because there is no truth in HIM;
when he speaketh lie he speaketh Of
his own: for he is a liar, and the father
of it.'-JOhn viii: A.
