Distinguished HuMbugs.

The Critic.l
There Is good deal OF humbug in
the loudly expressed aversion OF many
distinguished men 10 the attention of
the public. They say they want to
be let alone, but do not believe that
Is what they want at all. They want
the bores to let them alone, but they
would be very sorry If they received
no attention at all from the public.
The trouble is that there is no way of
regulating this attention. Naturally
enough, it is disagreeable to know
that crowd Of tourists is peepipg at
you over your garden wall, or taking
"snap shots at you with kodak at
the most inopportune moments, but
you need not tell me that your pride
is not gratifed by the plaudlts of the
judicious.

Setting Grape Vines ut Night.

California Fruit Grower.
A scene characteristic Of Californian
enterprise and push can be found in
the vineyards Of Fresno county, where
hundreds of men may be seen plant
ing grape vines at night by lantern.
To the wondering observer the vine
yard land seems to be infested with
multitude of huge fire flies, which are
darling and moving in every drcc>
ton. 1t is claimed by the vineyard
lists, who are planting vines at night,
the setting of the stakes can be done
much more easily and accurately by
the aid of lanterns than in broad day.
light; that more work is accomplished
by the men in the same number of
hours, and that a large amount Of
time is saved. The one set Of men
work from o'clock in the evening
until 6 o'clock in tho morning, when
they are relieved by another relay.

Why Poverty Exists.

Cardinal Gibbons. in North American Review for
April.l
Mr.. Carnegie boldly asserts the
probability that nineteen twentieths
of the SO called charity of to day is
unwisely spent-"so spent, indeed, as
to produce the very evils which it pro
poses to mitigate or cure" Surely
this is statement which he will, upon
fuller experience and reflection,
cheerfully retract. No matter what
efforts may be made by philanthro-
pists and social economists for the re-
moval Of poverty, we must make up
our minds that poverty in one shape
or another will always exist among US.
Tie words of Christ will be ever yer
ifed-"The poor ye have always with
you" As well attempt to legislate
vice out of existence as to l.gislate
poverty and suffering out of the world.
London Is the richest city In the
world; it is also the poorest. Berlin.
with population of million and a
half, has 100000 living from hand to
mouth and verging on restitution. 1t
is in accordance with the economy of
Divine Providence that men should
E xist in unequal conditions in society,
in order to the exercise of benevolent
virtues. Moreover, sickness and
death will come upon the bread
winner, and wife and child have their
whole support suddenly snatched
away. Disasters like those of Johns
town and the recent shocking losses
of life in Pennsylvania mires will
leave hundreds of widows and
orphans no alternative but charity.

GENERAL BUSINESS.

The Outlook Fairly Satisfactory-I
Money Easier than Usual At This
Season.
r. G. Dun & Co.'S Review Of
Trade for the week ending March IS:
elf no news is good news, as con-
Germs the condition of business at this
season, the outlook is fairly satisfac-
tory. 1t is season Of transition and
uncertainty, and every week that
passes without distinctly untoward
events brings closer the new and
probably large crops Of next summer,
and lessons the chance that interviews
ing disaster, financial, industrial or
commercial. may prevent the revival
Of all business. The events of the
past week have not been on the whole
unfavorable. Some failures of local
consequence have occurred, but moth
ing to indicate that the commercial
situation is unsound. Trade has been
rather quiet and hesitating, as is nat
ural at this season, and there is rather
more complaint Of slow collections,
but throughout the Northwest bad
weather aud bad country roads supply
an explanation. Money is in fair aud
even increasing supply, and thong h
still tight at Salt Lake and scarce at
Jacksonville, and in stronger demand
at Omaha and Milwaukee, is almost
every where easier, SO that wants Of
legitimate business are met without
trouble. The outlook for the crops
continues exceptionally good.
"lt has been we.k of unhealthy
speculation in some products, owing
to desperate efforts of powerful com.
binations to force prices on which
they can unload without loss.

ARAPTIST JuRII,RE.

The Morning Star of Glens Falls, y. Y,
contained last Monday morning a local
article, giving an account of a jubilee SER
vice held in the Baptist church in that
place on the Sunday previous. Rev. DIR.
Cow, the pastor, who preached the sermon,
announced to his congregation that pledges
had been obtained sufficient to wipe out
entirely the debt of $4,000 remaining on
the new church, and in addition to this a
generous lady of the society had given
$4,000 to build a new parsonage. In giving
a history of the work done by the society
during the eight years of his pastorate DIR.
Cow stated that his people had raised
during this time for all purposes more than
S6l, 900, and both the pastor and people
joined in cordial Thanksgiving and congrat-
ulations on the bright prospect now before
them. In conclusion the pastor urged up
on his people 'to as sumo manfully the larger
responsibilities for the future laid upon
them by the success which God had given
them in the past In concluding its ac-
count of this service, the Star says: at is
recognized by the church that to the pastor
himself belongs most of the honor and
credit of the success of the movement in
securing the pledges to wipe out the debt.
This is but another illustration of the in
domitable perseverance so characteristic
of Rev. DR.. Cow to render successful every
enterprise with which he is identified. And
these enterprises have not been few which
have contributed so largely to the intel
lectual and moral welfare of our beautiful
village"

ganized by choosing Rev. f. J. Parry of

Mabie, d. D., of Boston, corresponding

ports of the women's mission work by Mrs.
A. McGeorge, association. secretary of the
foreign mission society, and Mrs l.. w.
Hawley, association secretary of the home
mission society. Two interesting addresses
followed by DIR. Niles of Boston and Rev.

LIGHT FINGERED.
A Former Brattleboro Barber Comes to
Grief

Former Brattleboro Barber Comes to
Grief.
] Two weeks ago a man was arrested in
Boston for impersonating an officer. The
man gave his name las Henry p. Gardner,
but from receipts found upon his person
his real name was supposed to be Guellow.
Upon his arrest two special officers We're
detailed to investigate his operations, and
they unearthed a large amount of property
stolen by him in his room on Stamford
place. and also in various pawn shops.
Among the various articles stolen which
have been recovered, and for which owners
are wanted, are a banjo valued at S25; an
overcoat valued at SIS; large valise con-
tanning ladies' garments, worth $500: a
gold watch and chain valued at SIPS: a
satchel containing railroad tickets valued
at $50; garnet set bracelet and locket,
valued at $50, and two air guns, valued at
$40. The man was also believed to have
stolen valise containing jewelry worth
$500 from the National express company,
which has not yet been recovered. The
officers took their prisoner around to vari-
GUS pawn shops, and made him identify
the articles he had stolen, and afterwards
took him to Blacks, where he was photo
graphed for the rogues' gallery. The
Montpelier Argus discovered that Guellow
was barber who worked in that place two
years ago, and it was from that paper that
these facts were learned. Guellou formerly
worked in Brattleboro for Orrin Clark, in
the shop on Elliot street. He was here a
number of different times, in all several
years. He was accustomed to leave for
some other place without saying anything
to his employer, but besides embracing
numerous opportunities of reaching an adj
yanced stage of intoXication, his life was
not especially subject to adverse criticism.
His most besetting sin seemed to be a mania
for tips" A man who gave him only ten
cents for a shave earned his everlasting i'll
will. He has been held in the sum of
$500 for trial
