RECOLONIZING VERMONT.


 The plan for recolonizing deserted parts of Vermont with Swedish families is receiving cordial support. The need of action is strongly indicated by reports which are sent to Commissioner Valentine One man writes that in 1812 certain farms in his town were assessed at some five dollars per acre, and in 1886 the same property was valued at two dollars per acre less; and still great part, where they have been sold, do not bring the present appraisal. Probably in one-third of the town, where there were in the memo ry of the oldest inhabitant the best farms and most prosperous farmers, the buildings are now going and have already gone to decay, and what were few years ago fertile fields are used for pasturage, and fast grow ing again to timber. He thinks he can safely say that 1, 900 acres can be purchased in his town alone, and of this amount about one-half are in farms of from 70 to 200 acres, which could be bought for from three to four dollars per acre. The remaining half are lands which formerly comprised good farms, but with buildings now gone, and fast grow ing up to timber. Some are used for pastur- age, and on other farms the fences are not kept up. There are miles of stone walls to testify to former civilization, and these lands could be bought for from one to two dollars per acre.
 Another correspondent says that in the southwest part of the town, and in the two towns adjoining, there are from thirty-ive to forty farms contiguous or nearly so aban- doned and unoccupied, many of which have fair set of buildings on them, and others could be made comfortable with small out lay. Five dollars an acre would be the out side price for the best of these farms, and most of them could be bought for much less. It is very evident from these and other re- ports that farming in Vermont needs lift.

FREE TEXT BOOKS.


 Some of the talk about free text books in the schools is really amusing. One who did not know what the situation is might think that New Haven had suddenly become what is called s'a hot-bed of Socialism" ard that giving the school children their books was only preliminary to giving them their clothes, their food, and whatever else they might happen to need or want. The fact is that the introduction of the free text book System here will only be adopting plan which has worked very we'll in other places, and will only be an extension of what is al- ready done here. Most of what the children need to work with in the schools is already given them, and the free text book system is in practical use. So there will be nothing revolutionary or alarming in extending ita use. To stigmatize the proposition as social istic and demagogio is not good argument. And it is preposterous to think or say that the extension of the free book system here will open the door to other free things. The people of New Haven can be relied upon not to give away too much.

They were delayed so that they did not reach the court house until about 12 o'clock. Judge Hardy opened the court at g a. m. The dis trict attorney announced that his witnesses had not made their appearance. The case went on and was given to the jury without 8 word of testimony, and, under the charge of Judge Hardy, verdict of acquittal was rsn- dered before 10 o'clock.
 The Rev. Edward Bryant, the colored man who edits paper at Selma, Alabama, has made good deal of trouble by the foolish article in which he said to the white people: Were you to leave this south land, in 20 years it would be one of the grandest sec- tions of the globe. We would show you mossback crackers how to run country You would never see convicts half-starved depriving honest workingmen of an honest living, as you great T ams' now have it. It is only matter of time when the whole state of affairs will be changed, and, hope, to your sorrow. We were never destined to always be servants, but, as other races, we will have and must have our day. You now have yours. You have had your revolution ary and civil wars, and we here predict that at no very distant day we will have our race war, and we hope, as God intends, that we will be strong enough to wipe you out of ex- istence, and hardly leave enough of you to tell the story.

The Most Successful wo.nen's oIu.

The Most Successful Wo:nen's Club.
 Social elegance is the keynote to the Alex
 andra, the most successful women's club in
 London; presentation at her Majesty's draw
 ing room is the sine qua non of admittance,
 and names of various countesses figure in the
 council. Moreover, the Alexandra is strictly
 and absolutely feminine in it's constitution, no individual of the other sex above the age of twelve being admitted beyond the door mat. Husbands, fathers and brothers are ruthlessly excluded from it's sacred precincts. little value, and in the evening it is practi- cally deserted But it furnishes an admira- 1 ble center for shopping operations, and for | feminine lunches, teas, etc. Fine women pop in and out all day, and the cheerful drawing room on the first floor, brightly and I artistically furnished, forms most welcome resting place in the intervals of long day l in town, It possesses, moreover, the further advantage of bedrooms, let at the most reas- enable rate, so that girls anl young married l women can spend night or two in town l without any trouble as to chaperons or maids. Women friends, of course, may be l admitted into the club, and servants and tradespeopie interviewed. In spite of the prevalent opinion that women are not by nature "clubable," and that they would
 be certain to fall out over the management of any purely feminine concern, the Alexan.

fallen Buckner before the final round, but shied in the direction of England and be- slowed upon him a smile. Buckuer could hardly come to the scratch, but he was hus- tied along by his seconds, who ordered him to fight. He was helpless, however, and, after getting several blood-drawing smashes in the face, was put to sleep by a crack on the chin.
 Time was called, but he could not respond, and the battle, girl and ring were awarded to England by the referee.
 Just as the decision was rendered Addie stood over her unconscious but defeated lover and with smile deserted him with the remark: ''Well, Johnnie, you have lost"
 She then went to England, gave him the ring, and twenty minutes after the crowd had arrived upon the crest she was ambling down the rocky side of the hill with her arm fondly clasped by her bleeding, but suc- cessful Luther.
 Both men were severely punished and 8 hack had to be sent to the hill to remove the suffering and heart broken Buckner to his lodgings.

TRUNK sMAsHKR,s VAIL.

More Baggage and Bigger Baggage
 This Year Than Ever.
 From the Philadelphia Re cord.l
 "People imagine that every one of us is born Hercules and that we can do any amount of work without getting tired" sententiously remarked brawny trunk tos- ser of one of the local railroad stations yes terday. "We're getting plenty of toll this season. The trunks are not only numerous but are heavier and clumsier," growled the luggage tosser, "and we are getting trunks ten stories high with basements large enough to cover whole block" continued he.
 "This season the traveller seems to imagine that the big Saratoga is the only proper kind of luggage. There are comparatively few small pieces of baggage on the road"
 A glance at the baggage room in the Broad street station yesterday revealed the truth of the luggage smGsher's statement. The trunks were large enough to carry myriad of silk dresses, bonnets, tennis quits, and whole bric- brac of fneries to boot. One trunk in particular resembled small house on wheels. When the baggage smasher looked at it he cried out in disgust; 1.-The man who made such trunk as that should
  up."
 While there has been great amount of baggage checked for the mountain resorts this summer, by far the largest proportion of pieces went to the seaside. The reports of the local baggage masters show that where one piece of baggage is sent to the moun- tains there are three that go to the seashore. During the month of July, at the Broad street station, it was estimated that fully 39,- GOO pieces of baggage were destined for the wild sea waves, while only about 12,OOO wended their way to see the glories of noun tain life. In that month the total number of trunks, ,valises, and grip-sacks handled was 79,69O.
 The number tossed there in the same month last season was IT, 40, showing the increase of the travel this year over last at the same time. The greatest number of pieces handled last July was on the 27th of that month, when the sturdy baggage smashers had to toss about 4,750 trunks, valises and grip-sacks. This months show ing at the Broad street station promises to be exceedingly large. It is expected that by the end of August the baggage books will have inscribed on them in red ink grand total of 105,000 pieces for the ] months work.
 The baggageman of the Reading Railroad station at Ninth and Green streets are also 1 having plenty of toll. They sent out during July about z, ,500 pieces while they expect ! from present indications, to handle fully l twice that number this month.

Some Great Names Among the Outside

Some ssreat x james Among the Outside
 Fraternity.
 The finest thoughts of many great thinkers says the Youths Companion, are undoubted- ly the more or less direct result of their com ening winds and healing sunshine. Certain men of incalculable influence over ideas and morals have been constant lovers of country walks, and it would be difficult to overesti- mate the effect of such solitary rambles on their habits of thought.
 It is calculated that Wordsworth, in his many years of sauntering, must have trav- elled distance of 1S0,O ,O00 miles. What sights he saw during such prolonged and delightful wanderings only those who have the poets mind and eye can even guess.
 Charles Dickens was confirmed tramp, and no doubt acquired his experience of "life on the road" from actual acquaintance with all sorts of vagabonds and odd characters, such as frequent town and country lane and highways.
 One of the most remarkable of unprotes- sional walkers was Prof. Wilson, the "Chris- topher North" of literature. His fine physique and great endurance prompted him to the performance of wonderful feats, which seem- SQ 10 ulEn 6utlrely matter OI CouIs5 hc once walked 40 miles in eight hours, and at another time walked from Liverpool to FL leray in 24 hours, 8 distance of 80 miles. It is good to think of the long, unwearied strides with which he swung along, his blood bound ing with healthy pulses, and sending invigor- ating waves to the active brain.
 Henry Fawcett, also, was tireless walker, and one who, when deprived of sight, did not for one moment think of relinquishing this among the many forms of exercise. He was a familiar figure on the roads about Cam bridge. and there is no eKaggeration in say- ing that few men blessed with all their sens- es could enjoy nature more thoroughly than he. Southey, worn and preyed upon by men, tai application and the practical anxieties of everyday life, found his greatest relief in tramping about the country, listening for what nature had to tell him and learning contentment from her stability. John Stu. art Mill delighted in pedestrian tours, and Charles Lamb, though he loved town better than the country, was one who believed 1T l sweeping cobwebs from the brain by brisE and continuous walking.
 All these men walked not merely for prof it, but for pleasure, and the pro6tableness of the exercise was the greater because O l their pleasure in it. Their example may b. | commended to all. It is safe to say. tha 1 whoever once forms the habit of regula l tramping will never forego 1t except unde | some necessity.

 physician of Philadelphia has been taught something by his coachman. The physician, Dr. J. 0. Guernsey, insisted upon driving fractious horse and thus disregarded the suggestions of his coschman. The horse ran away and the coaohmsn was thrown out of the carriage, and his 8 kull was fractured and one of his legs was twice broken. Now the coachman sues the doctor, putting the damages at $10,0O0.
 The experiment of compulsory insurance, largely at public expense, for workingmen, which is hardly yet thoroughly under way in Germany, may possibly be tried, 1t seems, in England. 4 royal commission has been in- vestigating the matter and now reports in favor of legislation to carry into effect plan similar to that already formulated in Ger many by Bismarck as one of several schemes to beat the Socialists on their own ground. No wonder the Socialists crow.
 How they manage some things in southern Russia is indicated by a case which came be- ] fore judge at Odessa. A man applied for ! writ to compel his daughter to leave the house because when she saluted her parents she did not bow to them. He said that he would withdraw his application if she would ask pardon and make the re gular obeisance The girl agreed. She asked pardon; but when she bowed the father cried: "Lower. Down with your head! down below the gir- dle" She replied: "I won't bend as low as that; not if have to leave the house." The judge thereupon ordered her to leave, but she gave in finally and bowed her head to the girdle.
 The Louisville Courier-Journal, which has always opposed federal aid to southern schools on the ground that it was not needed, finds its position vindioated by the great pro. gross in public education made in Kentucky since 1880, which it thus summarizes: The
 State per capita has nearly doubled in thil
 period. New schools supported by local tax
 ation have been formed in a number of oul
 towns and villages. Church colleges hav'
 had large sums added to their endowments Every method of education has been ad
 vanced and improved. The school attend
 ance has largely increased, the salaries o teachers have increased, the school session
 in many districts have been extended, an
 altogether there has been an inspiring pro
 gress in education.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-One of the inter-
esting problems Of the near future is the size
of the house of representatives. The con-
gressmen from the new states will fill the
present chamber to its utmost capacity, and
new apportionment is to be made upon the
census of 1890. Instead Of fifty millions Of
people this census viii show at least sixty
four millions, and if in apportioning repre-
sentatives in congress the number Of such
representatives be increased in ratio with the
growth of population, the hall of the house
could not hold them. There are many argu-
ments both for and against an increase of the
number Of representatives On the one hand,
many of the present congressman are over
burdened with labor on account of the de-
pands of their constituents
