VERMONTs DESERTED FARMS.
An Effort to Secure Market for De-
sirable Land.

The state commissioner of agricultural
and manufacturing interests has Just pub
tished new and valuable map of Vermont
moving the locations of towns in which
are unoccupied farms and lands unoccupied
The descriptive text on the margin of the
map is printed in the English and Swedish
languages.
The published lit includes sixty towns,
which are des ignated on the map by being
colored red. The commissioner states in
thi. connection that good farms, with fair
buildings and maple sugar orchards, can be
purchased at from three dollars to five dol
lars per acre. Others, with better buildings
and near railroad or village, can be bought
for from five to ten dollars per acre. None
of these lands are far from ready market
and all are adapted to dairy purposes. Farm
labor is in great demand at good wages.
These facts are based upon official reports
gathered by the commissioner from the
listers and clerks in the various towns. The
map is brought up to January l. 1890. AL
ready several thousand letters have been re-
ceived by the commissioner and his assist
ants from every section of the United States,
making inquiry concerning unoccupied
lands in Vermont. Several sales of the land
In question have been made to former Yer
monters residing in the West, and to citi-
Eens of the state. In view of the fact that
Vermont is having an industrial and manu-
featuring boom, it is safe to predict an ap-
probation of farm property and better prices
for farm productions in the near future.

"FATHER OF THE HOUSE."
Judge Kelley of Pennsylvania Passes
Quietly Away.


The oldest member of the national house
of representatives and one who h,sl made
his name familiar throughout the Union,
Hon. William d. Kelley died in Washing
ton, January 8, after an illness that extended
over number of years. II title of Judge,
by which he was often addressed, was ac-
quired by ten years service over the court
of common pleas in Philadelphia. That
service was Just previous to his entrance
into congress, where he remained without
intermission from 1861 until the day of his
death.
Born in Philadelphia, April IL, 1914, bis
first work was as copy reader in a printing
Office. This proving uncongenial he was
apprenticed to jeweler, and served the
seven years required by the customs of those
times. About 1885 he went to Boston. and
worked at his trade for two or three years.
His maiden speech is said to have been
made at democratic gathering in Faneuil
hall. His political convictions were
changed later After his return to Phila-
delphia Mr.. Kelley began the study of law,
and making rapid progress attained both
popularity and influence. His hold over his
fellow citizens even then was so great that
on the occasion of local uprising Mayor
Henry sent for the young lawyer to address
the mob, which he did, with the result OF
quieting them and sending all peaceably
home. From the first he was an orator, and
his rich, magnificent voice continued one of
his great charms and powers in private and
in public.
Entering the thirty-seventh congress he
was returned at each subsequent election by
the same constituency, the fourth district,
covering the six wards of Philadelphia. As
years passed by he became the consulting
encyclopedia of economic facts for many
members and many citizens.
His remains will be buried at Laurel
Hill cemetery, Philadelphia. The immedi-
ate cause of his death was intestinal catarrh,
brought on by a cold For some years.
however, he had been almost a constant
sufferer from cancerous growth in the
side of the face.
In his death Washington loses a historic
figure. One of the few survivors in congress
of the war and reconstruction period, and
man who, for several years had borne the
honorable title of the father of the house of
Representatives, Judge Kelley held a con-
spicuous position at the national capital,
md always commanded the entire respect OF

DOUBLE IRA GEDY.
An Oregon Bachelor Kills His Mother
and Suicides.

PORTLAND, June 11.-A double tragedy
occurred at Milwaukee, near here, this
morning. Daniel Harvey, who has
lived for many years at the home of his
mother, Mrs. Mary Bunnell shot his
mother through the temple with pis-
tol, and then blew his own brains
out Both mother and son lived
only few hours. The fam
lily were living on fruit farm
about mile east of Milwaukee.
Harvey was 35 years of age and unmar-
ried, while his mother was 65 years Of
age. The family always lend peacefully
together, and Harvey seemed particu-
larly kind to his mother. Harvey owned
the farm until about two months ago,
when he sold it for $4,000. While he
has always been of morose or sulen
disposition, he seemed to be particularly
respondent since the sale of
his property. He regretted the sale,
and attempted to buy the farm back
again. About 6 O'Clock this morning,
having entered room where his mother
and stepfather were asleep, stepping up
to the bedside he placed the weapon
near the right temple of his mother and
fired. He then sent bullet into his
own brain.

ORANGE SHIPMENTS.
THE CALIFORNIA SHIPPING SEASON
ABOUT CLOSED.
No More Special Trains to Be Sent East
this Year-The N. c.. B. Product an
Infnitesimal Quantity.

SAN Francisco June 1.-THE orange
shipping season has practically closed.
The last special orange train left Los
Angeles on Sunday, and the traffic men
OF the Southern Pacific Company do not
expect any more orange specials to be
sent out this year.
The exact number of carloads
shipped from this state has not
yet been computed, but it is stated that
the number OF carloads shipped to COM
petitive points east of the Rocky noun
talns will very nearly approximate
1000. No shipments are made further
east than Chicago and Cincinnati, Flor
ida and Mediterranean products holding
the eastern field. About 500 carloads
have gone to Oregon and Washington
and other points west of Salt Lake.
The amount Of late oranges remaining
unmarketed in the state is not precisely
known, but may reach 100 carloads.
These will soon reach the market in car
loads attached to regular freight trains.
If these figures, which were given by
the Southern Pacific freight depart
ment, are correct, the total shipments
have been from 300 to 400 carloads less
than was anticipated at the beginning
of the season.
The Northern California product does
not cut any figure in these esti-
mates. 1t is yet comparatively small in
amount, and as it ripens earlier than the
product Of Southern California, it all
goes to the local market. When the
orange orchards recently planted in the
northern citrus belt come into bearing,
they will cut a figure in the states east
ern shipments.
Deciduous fruit shipments have so far
been confined to cherries, though the
movement of apricots is beginning. The
shipments of cherries in May were much
larger than in May, 1889. Between
fifteen and twenty carloads of cherries
have gone east by passenger train SO far,
much of it reaching New York and
Boston

THE FILIBUsTER PIGMENT.
The Constitution of the New Republic
Forwarded to Washington.

SAN Diego, June 11.-United States
Marshal George +. Gard arrived from
Ensenada, Lower California, today,
where he was making an investigation
OF the tilibustering movement which
was recently exposed. During his inves-
tigation a copy of the provisional con-
stitution of the new republic, which the
filibusters expected to form, was secured,
and this document was forwarded to
Washington. The constitution asserts
political freedom for the United States
of Mexico, and declares that the
people "hereby delegate their authority
to a council of administration for the
purpose Of a war of independence, and
that the authority Of said council shall
be complete until peace shall be de-
clared, when a constitutional conven-
tion of the people shall be called. All
legislative, judicial and executive func-
tions are vested in said council, and un-
til the declaration of peace martial law
shall prevail on the peninsula"
The writ of habeas corpus is declared
suspended during the war for independ-
ence.
The president was to preside at all
meetings of the council, and have the
casting vote. The constitution also pre-
scribes the duties of the commanding
general, secretary-general, treasurer-gen-
eral surveyor-general, and other officers
composing the council of administration.
