most excellent condition and predict
that it win go through the winter in
the best condition known for years.
The fall has certainly been extremely
favorable, and with anything like
proper weather for the next few
months, another big wheat crop will be
harvested in Dickinson county.
Dispatch: A big wreck occurred
last Saturday on the Santa Fe few
miles north of Hope. The break on
one of the cars, of a loaded grain train,
came down and threw nine cars from
the track. The cars were from the
middle of the train and no one was hurt,
but the cars were badly smashed up
and the grain scattered all around the
neighborhood.
The postoGice repairing has been
completed and it is now as handsome a
room as the state affords. Every pa
tron of the Office should take pride in
keeping the walls clean and Crefraln
from marring them as has been done
in the past. 1t is the public's property
and Postmaster Gorden's enterprise
should be commended by care of the
improvements made.
The many friends of Rev. T. +.
Stauffer, of the Grace Reformed church,
will regret that he is to leave the city
January 1st and take charge in Lin
coin, Neb. Mr.. S. has done much hard
work for the cause during his passionate
and will be much missed by the large
congregation which he has built up.
No arrangement has yet been made for
a regular pastor to succeed him.
Tom Wilson must have been put
ting his foot in it lately orhe would not
talk like this in the Rocky Ford Water
melon: 1.-The editor of country news
paper will grant more favors without
pay or thanks in a month than any
other business man in year. 1t is
also an established fact that he will re-
ceive more all-around cussing in a week
than any other man in a life time.
That's the reason he's not afraid of

Rather a strange phenomenon was
seen in the heavens last Friday even
ing, about 10 o'clock, in the form of a
star that arose in the eastern horizon.
1t would first shoot up into the heavens
and then out in a westerly direction.
It's general direction being southwest.
All of the time it showed the different
hues of the rainbow.-[COr. Solomon

necessarily for publication, but as an

Mr.. E. II. Albright left today to
accept a position as assistant manager
in al extensive oyster and fruit can
ming establishment in Baltimore. Mr..

typewriter in the Abilene Bank and
during that time has made for himself
an estimable position in business and
social circles. AS a musician he will
leave a vacancy hard to fill. Duringal
the time of his residence in Abilene
Mr.. Albright has been solo bass in

Isabel Morris.

There was some delightful com
edy at the Old Theeter last even
ing. Miss Isabel Morris and her
talented company OF comedians
prove the best Fair attraction Piper
has given our theatear goers Tor
wears. The great drama OF Gym
mes Oath given on the opening
night was supplemented last even
ing bv the roaring comedy of the
Great Divorce Case. Every part
required an artist, and every stu
alton provoked scream of laugh
ter. The sides OF the ladies must
have ached with the effort, and
speaking for ourselves were sure
the buttons were loose on the
clothes of the men who laughed till
they almost burst.
Miss Morris is an actress OF
varied and accomplished talents.
If old wine improves with age SO
do some actors. Charles j. Ed
nonds and his very talented vile
are proofs of that fact. John Jack
returns, oily, racy and improved IN
all that makes stage art sucress.
Fid Page, Mr.. Temple and Young
B-adley are fit associates for such
PLAYERS, while Kate Chester proves
herself The Queen of Soubrettes.
Little Daisy Chester is perfect
Little Lord Fauntleroy OF a child
actress. Miss Morgan and the rest
of the corps are perfect.
Tonight a good performance may
BE- looked for in fine production of
East Lynne, or the Elopement.
Miss Morris is distinguished for her
portrayal Of Daily Isabel and Mad
am Vine. John Jack as Archibald
and Charles Edmonls as Sir Francis
LevIson the Admiral, DeLane as
Mount Severen, with all the come
dams in the play make a role OF
characters hard L, haat.

A STRfrcE DEATH.
a Man DIes in the County ia

Thursday evening, a man was
found sltiirg in "a chair in front OF
tie Mona,ch Saloon, apparently
ASLEEP. Several persons noticed
the man in the char but they sup
posed that he was drunk or asleep.
At a late hour, he was removed to
the County Jail and between 3 and
yesterday morning he was found
dead IN one of the hunks. From
letters found on his person, it was
learned that his name Is John
G. CroL in; and that lie had just
arrived from Idaho. From his ap
pearance one would judge that he
had been sick for some time. Al
ter acertaining t1ese facts, Coroner
Friend concluded not TO hold an
inquest. He Was about 80 or 40
wears OF age and had the appear
ance of a respectd ole man.

The Disaster at Samoa.
From the New York Herald, April 1st.)

at Apia have just been received. The
hurricane burst upon the harbour
suddenly. The German maHof-war
Eber was the first vessel to drag her
anchors. She became unm~anageable
and was driven helplessly on the ref
which runs around the harbour, strik-
ing broadside on, at six o'clock in the
morning. The shock caused her to
lurch and then bound back, and she
sank IN a moment in deep water. Many
of her men were below, and scarcely
one soul of them escaped.
The German warship Adler was
the next TO succumb. She was lifted
bodily by a gigantic wave and cast on
her beamends on the reef. A terrible
struggle for life ensued anon the
officers and sailors aboard. Many
plunged into the raging surf and
struck out, some reaching the shore
in safety. Others chung 10 the rig
ging until the mast fell. Olthe latter
two gained the shore safely. The
captain of the Adler and several
other officers were saved.
in the meantime the United States
steamer Nipsic had been dragging
her anchors and drifting towards the
shore. The captain, however, manag-
ed 10 keep control and ran her or a
sand bank. Boats were Immediately
lowered and the whole company were
saved with the exception Of eve
men, who were drowned by the cap
sizing OF a boat.
The United States steamer Wanda
liz was carried before the gale right
upon the reef. She struck with a
terrible shock, and Captain Schoon-
maker was hurled against a Gatling
gun and stunned. Before he could
recover n great sea swept the deck
and washed him away.
The vessel sank fifty yards from
the Nipsic. Several of the officers
aud men were washed overheard and
drowned. Others persisted while max
ing desperate efforts to swim to the
shore. Some remained for hours
clinging TO the rigging, but heavy
waves dashed increasingly over them,
md one by one they were swept
away.
By this time night had set in. Many
natives and Europeans had gathered
on the shore, and all were anxious TO
render assistance 10 the wrecked YES
sells and their unfortunate crews, but
darkness having fallen on the scene,
they were wholly unable to be OF SER
vice. ~
Soon after the VandaIia had sunk
the American warship Trenton broke
her anchorage and was driven upon
the wreck of the V~andalia, whence
she drifted to the shore. The bottom
of the Trenton was completely stove
and her hold was half full OF water.
As morning broke the German
maTn!!oi-war Olgn, which had hitherto
b~ravtly withstood the gale, although
much battered by the heavy seas that
constantly broke upon her, became
unmanageab1e and was driven upon
the beach, where she lay in a tolera-
BILE position. 81 -

Queen Victoria cab!ed through Lord
Salisbury to The British Leg alton in
this city to-day directing that her
earnest sympathy be expressed to the
President Of the United states on the
terrible naval misfortune at Samoa
and the deplorable loss of life.
Mr.. Edwardes, the British Charge
d'Afaires, accompanied by the Score
'ary Of State, waited upon the President
this afternoon, at three o'clock, and
read to him the Qnepn's message.
In reply the President expressed
his warm appreciation aud that Of the
whole people of this country of the
Queens conslderate sympathy III the
calamity that had overwhelmed our
naval forces at Samoa. A more for
nal reply to the Qa'en's message
would be made, the President said,
through the Department of State.
Secretary Tracy went to New York
yesterday afternoon. Commodore
Walker, chief the Bureau of Navign-
ton, VIII" is acting head Of the depart,
ment during The Secretary's absence,
was not at home this evening, but it
was said at his residence that no ad-
dltiOnal information had been received
in regnrd to the vessels wrecked at
Samoa.
The immediate relatives of those
who lost their lives in the wreck will
be entitled TO pensions under the
general law. The pension is Sc per
month for n senman'S widow and So
per month for each child under sixteen
years of age. In the case Of widows
of officers it is prOportionately larger.
Parents of the dead persons will have
to prove that they were dppen-
dent upon their sons tor support
to entitle them to pensions. Con
gress will probably also pass IL spec
ial act making reimbursement for
the effects and baggage officers
and men lost in the wreck. This
was done in the case of the Huron,
which went down on The IIalterns
coast about fifteen years ago.
AS to the escape of the English
war ship OalIiope, Commodore Ram
say said that it was doubtless owing
to the fact that she had only called
there and was probably all ready to
sail when the storm came on.
This meant that she had steam up
md lay much futher ouI in the har-
Dor than the American and German
ships, which were there TO stay for an
indefinite time.

The Lamoille County Savings
Bank.

The Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Company, of Hyde Park, has been
organized by men who believe that saw
ings bank can be run as a Vermont insti-
tuition.
1t relies exclusively upon Vermont bus
mess, makes no southern or western loans
whatever, nor any loans which the mana
gers cannot ascertain by personal inves-
tigation to be good beyond question.
The conservative policy Of Its Presi-
dent, Hon. C. S. Page, is well known To
all who have observed his recommends
tions as inspector of Finance for the state
of Vermont during the past four years.
His ideas have been regarded as over
cautious touching the matter of invest
ments, but the policy of the management
of this bank will be in the exact line OF
his well known views. Safety will be the
first consideration, and with this in view
the bank will guarantee the payment OF
four per cent. compounded semi-annually
believing that this is all that the safest
line of investments and conservative man
agement will now warrant.
Persons at distance can send money
with entire safety by express, post-ollice
order, express money order, registered
letter, or by bank check or draft, and de-
post book will be returned by mail.
Deposits in this institution are exempt
from individual taxation TO the extent OF
