Justice 20 a Brattleboro Lad,,

A Chicago press dispatch says, after
a wearisome suit of six years justice
has been done to Miss Scrotia Alex
ander of Brattleboro, Vt. A quarter
of century ago she abandoned the
lucrative profession of music, which
she had adopted in Boston, in obedl'
ence to the wishes of her brother,
Elijah s. Alexander, and remained at
her old home, caring for her parents
until their death. This faithfulness
necessitated her abandoning all pur-
suits, foregoing marriage and turning
away Il lover to whom she had plight
ed her troth. For this self-sacl flee
her brother, who was amassing fort
une in Chicago, promised to reward
her with SO, 200 anda annuity equal
to what she would have earned. But
when he died here six years ago, a
rich man, not a cent of his estate had
been left to his sister. Miss AleXan-
der took the case into court in 1887,
and the heirs fought the claim to the
last stage. But yesterday Lawyer
Edwin Walker, as administrator of the
estate, signed check for $4,000,
payable to Miss Alexander.

WASHINGTON, July l0.-The CEN
sus bureau has issued a bulletin on
the distribution Of population in ac-
cordance with altitude. In the area
below 500 feet is included nearly all
that part Of the population which is
engaged in manufacturing and in the
foreign commerce of the country, and
most of that engaged in the culture
of cotton, rice and sugar. The inter-
val between 500 and 1900 feet COM
prises the greater part of the prairie
states and the grain-producing states
of the Northwest.
East of the 9Sth meridian 1900 feet
is practically the upper limit of the
population, all the country lying a.
bove that elevation being mountain
Gus. The population between 2OOO
and 5000 feet is found mainly on the

In America there has been reorganiza
ton from the Arctic ocean to Patagonia,
and for the most part improvement. II
is easy to see that when the Canadian
confederation was formed Q86D states
men were powerfully impressed by the
American civil war. The constitution
of the United States declares that
all powers not granted to the federal
government are reserved to the states;
practically the reverse is the rule In Can
ada. The Ottawa government has
plenary legislative powers, those of the
provinces are limited, and III many lines
the confederation may "disallow" the
act of a province, 1t seems ironical to
cali such u government confederation.
To Sir John Alexander Macdonald, re-
Gently deceased, more than any other
man, belongs the honor of organizing
Canada.
In Mexico, though many will doubt
it, an equally valuable work has been
done. Constitutional government pro-
ceeds there with almost as much regu-
larity as elsewhere, and generation has
grown up with no experience of serious
revolution. In Brazil revolution has
been effected with SO little trouble that
it rather deserves the title of constitu-
tional change; but the new government
has been confronted at the outset with
the most serious of all trials-panic and
financial depression-and il is too soon to
decide as to its success. In the Argen-

sit will not be lace curtains in the

three kinds of pie that will prejucdice

has been traced directly to the lack
of proper sanity conditions in coun-

that the applicant for board, especial
ly if an invalid or the head of fam

sunlight, exposure to free circulation
of air, situation of out buildings, the
purity of the water supply and the
disposition of sink water and cham

Al poem entitled "The Vermont Edi-

Among the guests was Rcdfeld
Proctor, secretary Of war, who was
the first regular speaker. He spoke
in complimentary terms Of the press
and of the state of Vermont, saying
that Vermont always gained by com
parison with other states and that such
comparison only served to make her
people contented with their lot. When
through with public duty he hoped to
spend the rest of his life in the grand
old state where he had received all of
the good that had come to him in this
life.
He was followed by Gov. Carroll
S. Page, who related anecdotes of his
experience during the years of his
public life in the state.
The other speakers were Collector
A. w. Beard, William f. Barrett
speaker of the Massachusetts House
of Representatives, Judge Edgar j.
Sherman and others. The addresses
were interspersed with music by the
Appelton quarette and Miss Shepard,
and readings by Miss Marshall.
Among those present, in addition to
those already mentioned, were Con-
gresham Grout, State Treasurer
Field, Secretary of State Brownell
and State Auditor Powell of Vermont
Hosea Mann, jr., speaker of the Yer
mont House of Representatives and
G. E. Allen of Burlington. The asso-
