Short Tails and Long Tails.

A traveller in New England saw the
following sign on board that was nailed
to fence near a village:
"Horses taken in to grass. Long tails,
$3.50; short tails 81.
The traveller halted and asked the
owner of the land why there was such
a difference in the price of board for
horses.

CHILDREN's SUNDAY.

Children's day as usual brought many
beautiful flowers and happy children's
faces at the churches observing il last Sun
day.
The Methodist church was Handsomely
decorated with large ferns, potted plants.
laurels, evergreen and bouquets of lilies
and roses. The service was opened with a
march by the children and those taking
part In the concert exercise, which was
very appropriately called 1.-The Pearl Gath
erers." The eight different pearls which
constituted Religion" namely, righteous
ness, education, love, industry, gentleness,
innocence, obedience and Nazareth, were
represented by eight of the older boys and
girls of the Sunday school, and the part of
religion, or the queen, was we'll taken by
Miss Carlotta Pine. After this exercise
there were few recitations and songs by
the younger children, and the pastor
closed the service with interesting remarks.
The Congregational church had very
festive appearance and looked very dainty
in its dress of laurels, daisies, buttercups
and bouquets of cut flowers. The service
in the morning was opened by process
sional hymn, the children marching to the
front of the church, where Rev. Mr. Day
talked to them very Interestingly from the
text, Remember Jesus Christ" He
closed his remarks by wishing them good
bye for the summer. In the evening there
was concert given by the children, which
consisted of some very pretty exercises by
the different children's classes in the Sun
day school, one of which was the decora-
ton of cross with flowers by a class of
girls, and another interesting one was en-
titled, "The Picture Gallery" represent
ing scenes in a Christians life. Miss Lis
com sang a solo, and the singing by the
children was exceptionally good. Mr..
Day closed this service by wishing that the
children might look just the same when he
returned from his vacation, and gave them
verse to remember while he was away.

collected and arranged by Mr.. Halls class,
and beautiful enliyening music, all CON
tributed to the enjoyment of Children's
day at the Baptist church. The evening
service by the Sunday school was not
largely attended, but the exercises were es-
pecially interesting. Besides the children's
exercises short addresses were delivered by
Mr.. John Allen of Waltham, on the beauty
of doing little things for Christ in harmony
with his words, "Inasmuch as We have
done it unto the least of these We have
done it unto me" and by Mr.. Parry on
the work of the Baptist Publication so
ciety of Philadelphia. A special Offering
amounting to about $50 was made for the
benevolent or mission work of this society.

THE WHITE MOUNTAIN TRAIN.

Announcement was made on Mon lay Of
the arrangement Of the schedule for this
years White Mountain train. The details
are given in a paragraph copied herewith
from the Springfield Republican. 1t will
be seen that the time of the trains in both
directions has been materially quickcned,
and that the hour for passing BrattleborO
is later going north an earlier going south
than it has been in any previous year:
The time schedule for the White Noun
tain train has at last been definitely settled
and this year New Haven and Hartford
will be the only places served by it between
this city and New York. Formerly Bridge
port, Stamford an one or two other towns
were favored. The up train is to leave
New York at 10 4. NJ, New Haven at
II NJ, and Hartford at 1 =. NJ, arriving
here 40 minutes later. A 1j-minute stop
will be made in this city. IIolyoke is also
left out in the cold. but Northampton will
be accommodated at 2.2j and Greenfield at
2.53. South Vernon will be left behind at
3.20, Brattleboro 20 minutes later and Bel
lows Falls at APO, the stop at the latter
place being two minutes. Fabyan's will
be reached at S.25 =. NJ Returning, the
train leaves Fabyans at 8 A. NJ, Bellows
Falls at LOS =. NJ, Drattleboro at 1.45,
South vernon 2.OI, Greenfield 2.32, North
ampton 3.02 and this city at $40, where
10 minutes will be allowed. The depart
ure from Hartford is to he at 4. 10 and New
Haven at 5.15, arriving at New York at
40. The north-bound train will probably
connect at White River Junction with the
Central Vermont train for Montreal and at
Wells River with the train over the Boston
and Maine road for Quebec Buffet draw
ing-room cars and coaches will be run with
out change and a drawing-room car be-
tween New York and jefferson. BY this
it will be seen that the express is to leave
New York an hour later than last season.
but by reason of altered schedule will
reach White mountain points about the
same time as before. Although the down
train leaves the mountains only ) minutes
earlier than before, it will reach New York
nearly an hour in advance of its old time.
The train begins its trips on Monday, June
20, and will continue running until
October J.

MISS sAwYER,s school,

public exercises, but as pleasant conclu-
sion of their work "the Hedgerow Debat-
ing society" comprised of members of the
school, gave lawn party Monday evening
The grounds about the house are unusually
well adapted for such a purpose, and were
made very attractive with the tasteful dis
play of japanese lanterns. flags and other
decorations. 1t was gypsy party and
bright dresses were everywhere. Prettily
arranged sales booths for ice cream and
other refreshments, novel post-office with
dainty letters for every one, and a gypsy
fortune-teller's tent added to the attractions
of the occasion. LeitSinger's orchestra
furnished music, and during the evening
some OF the pupils gave a gypsy chorus

From this it is evident that the excellent
work done and opportunities offered are
appreciated. Private schools have a legit-

schools. Children exceptionally backward

classes; and scholars that do not desire
the required public school courses, here
receive such instruction as is necessary for
the purpose of their development. In
testimony of their appreciation of Miss
Sawyer's efforts to make school life pleas
ant as well as profitable, the pupils pre-
sented her with desk and chair at the end
of the term, pleasant indication of the
friendly and intimate relations existing
between teachers and pupils.

THE LIME HOT WAVE.

The intense heat Of Monday ana Tues
day broke the recorl for torril weather in
June, not only locally but throughout the
country ON Mon lay, following two days
of pretty high temperature, the mercury
took a sudden rise and the heat became al
most unbearabp, the hot wave extending
from the far West all the way to the At
lantic seaboard. In New England the mer-
curry ranged all the way from - degrees,
which was rs high as it got at the Fdbyan
House i'm the White Mountains, to lO1 de-
grees at Providence, Il. /. The statistics
showed the day to be The hottest June day
for eight years with the exception of June
20. 1883. when the maximum temperature
was gG degrees. What made the heat seem
the more intolerable was the intense drouth
prevailing over the whole eastern section
of country. Eastern New York suffered
equally with New England. In New York
city the mercury reached 0j degrees: in
Albany it was % in the shade; Troy %;
Rochester 81.
But hot as was Monday, the mercury
climbed higher on Tuesday, and the suffer
ing from the heat was greater in proper
ton. In Boston the record was 80 degrees
at the elevated signal service station, while
i'm the blstering streets below II was sew
eral degrees hotter. From points all over
New England, including Maine, northern
New Hampshire and Vermont, tempera-
lures as high as 06 and ~ degrees were re-
ported. In several places in Central New
England and New York schools and facto-
ries were closed. A summary of the days
weather said: The hottest spot in the
United States at o'clock in the morning
was Pittsburg, Pa. where it was SO de-
grees. The coolest, strange to say, was
Sante Fe. y. NJ. where it was only 40 de-
grees at that hour. Boston was as fervid
as Galveston at 81. and Cleveland as fervid
as New Orleans at so. Chicago was cooler.

waukee was 76. 1t was broiling hot in
New York city and prostrations by the heat
were numerous. Troy. too, suffered in

100 degrees in the shade at =. VI. The
drouth is assuming a serious phase in that
vicinity. Crops are almost standing still,
creeks are dry and many fields are burning
up. The thermometer in Poughkeepse
marked 100 in the shade
The heat in Brattleboro on Monday and
Tuesday was almost unprecedented at this
season. Mr.. Childs's standard thermome-
ter made the highest temperature the same
on both days-96 degrees, but i'm exposed

four degrees greater than this \ thunder

THE BRATTLEBoRo & WHITEHALL,
RAILROAD.

There was an attendance of about 90 at
the annual meeting of the stockholders
held at the Brooks House on Tuesday.
The report of the little roads earnings and
expenses was submitted from the Central
Vermont cOmpany's Office showing total
earnings of S5O,3S5. Is, and total operating
expenses of S46, 440. 70, the excess of earn
ings over operating expenses being S3944.
&c. OF the years earnings S34, 476. IS were
from freight service, S13, 225. u from the
passenger service, S20S3. 06 for carving the
mails and 5000 for express service. The
total earnings were substantially the same
as in 1889. The passenger earnings were
the largest of any year since the road went
into operation, being $3.50. Ga larger than
in 1889, fact which shows that nothing
has been lost by the Introduction of cheap
fares in the way of mileage sold at two
cents and of limited round trip tickets sold
at reduced rates. In 1888 the passenger
earnings were S11, S61.S2, while in 1887
and 1886 they did not reach quite $40, 900.
In 1886, 'S7 and 'SS the freight earnings
stood at from $27, 900 to SIS, 900, while for
the past two years they have been over
$4,000, showing healthy and gratifying
all-round increase in the road business,

WILL sCHUsTER IN GRAND OPERA

Mr.. Will Schuster is now in Philadel-
phia with the Gustav Heinrichs's American
Opera company, and his Brattleboro friends
will be glad to know that his work there
receives cordial public approval. On Mon
day evening Delibes's Indian opera. LAX
me, was produced. and of Mr.. Schuster's
performance the discriminating critic of
the Ledger says:
THE NildkGnthG of William Burke was
very good portrayal. Though a little
unsteadiness in the recitative seemingly be-
trayed previous mfamiliarity with the
part, yet his strong. pure baritone was
heard to excellent effect in the solo work
and concerted passages and it is only lust
to say that, after Miss Islar, he carried off
a large share of the honors. His voice has
an agreeable freshness and fexibilitv, and
will probably be heard TO advantage in i'm
portant roles during the season."
The Evening Item says: "Mr. Burke
made hit in the role, his rendering of the
solo in the second act being really more
than admirable. Evidently the audience
was agreeably surprised, and it attested its
appreciation of good thing by perhaps the
most enthusiastic applause of the evening""
BY way of explanation it may be added
that civilian Burke is the stage name
recently adopted by Mr. Schuster. the sur
name being that of his mother before her
marriage.
