American JOURNALISTS are relieving
themselves of great deal Of pent-up virtue
just now, Presumably, this article ac-
eumulates very rapidly during the summer
months. At any rate, the editors Of this
free and happy land must feel easier now.
The cause Of an this display is a dinner that
was given in London a few days ago. We
must confess that the dinner was uncon-
YeHtiOnal in some respects. Perhaps IL
might fairly be described as eccentric. But
why IL should be made 20 serve az the oc-
casiOn for a national demonstration Of
righteousness we cannot altogether see.
The dinner vas given by a young business
man Of New York 10 another aud a still
younger New Yorker who, however, has
been living iu London for some tune, aud
has made a large fortune there. The host
very naturally wanted 10 make the event
memorable aud impressive, and IN SEEKING
this cOnsummatiou, be departed somewhat

the wages that he does pay to them,

them.

girls are in his service under instruc-

A change in railroad time for some trains

leaves this station at Il: "A A. NJ, about three
quarters of an hour earlier than before, and
arrives at st. Johnsbury at s: 80.

There was railroad wreck at East Hard
wick, near the station last Monday. AS
the through freight going East was drawing
off the siding, three cars left the rails. They
were all loaded with corn destined for

aged, scattering the corn in every direction.
The track was INSTRUCTED about half day
We were in error somewhat last week in
relation to the organization of the building
