Prince Christian Accidentally Shot by the
IT'S Duke of Conunucht

Princo Christian Accidentally Shot by the
Duke of Connnught.
LONDON, Dec. 2S.-The injuries from
which Prince of Christian of6Schlcswig-
MISUNDERSTANDING is suffering were
caused by one OF the accidents that are
SO frequent i'll the hunting field.
The queen is spending her Christmas
holidays at Osborne uousc, hcr, resi-
dencc on tho Isle OF Wight, and among
the royal company is Prince Christian,
who is tho husband OF Princess Helena
Augusta Victoria, third daughter OF the
queen; the Duke OF Connaught, Her
Nlajesty's third son; Prince Henry Of
Battcnberg, who married Princess
Beatrice, the queens youngest daugh-
ter, and Prince Albert OF Schleswig-
Holstein. r5SEs n
The day before Christmas these four
princes, attended by the usual beatcrs,
started out to shoot over the preserves
belonging to the royal estate. Late in
the afternoon, wien the sport was
nearly. finished, some birds we're flushed
which rose between the Duke OF Con-
naught and, Prince Christian. The
former, who had no idea that his shot
would reach Prince Christian, fired into
the coveyr Unfortunately his aim was
not high enough to carry tho shot over
the head Of Prince Christian and three
OF the pellets struck him in tile face.
Ono OF the shot entered one OF his eye
balls, intlicting a very serious wound.
In fact it was reported that the sight Of
the eye was destroyed, and that the
physicians attending the prince decided
that it would be the safer plan to re-
move the injured eyeball altogether, in
order preserve the sight OF the other
eye. This was done, and yesterday
Prince Christian was progressing favor
ably towards recovery. The wounds in
his face are slight.

standing tho fact that Secretary Blaine

Lodge and Boutolle called ut tho navy

races of no greater experience. l am
confident, says the Secretary, that after
few months training they will be fit for
any service, ana properly managed, will
furnish valuable addition to the mill
tary strength of the Nation. 1t is not
only an important step toward their
civilization, self support and control, but
is the cheapest and best insurance against
further Indian troubles. While 1 believe
they will prove trustworthy in any ser
vice, even against their own people, they
will at least, be sureties in some meas
ure for their respective tribes.
In closing his report Mr.. Proctor, as
he is about to retire from his position,
pays his subordinates a handsome COM
pliment for the earnest and loyal CO.
operation which he has at all times re-
ceived at their hands. This is the first
time that Vermont has been honored
with position in the cabinet for more
than forty years, but is gratified with
the opportunity she has had, even now,
to make her record, and would suggest
whenever another good man is wanted,
to come again.
The Bennington banner. [volume] (Bennington, Vt.) 1858-1894, 1891-12-04
THE WAR REPORT.

Senator Proctor as he retired from the
war office made his annual report. This
is an important document. In the words
of another our Senator has made record
that is pre-eminent in every respect.
"He has introduced many new methods
into his department, and whenever he
could do so advantageously has adopted
new plans, every one of which has
proven the wisdom of his appointment.
Others may follow in his tracks, but it is
safe to presume that his equal in skill
and originality will not soon or again be
found. There has not been the least
friction or noise in his department., and
everything has gone along as quietly as
business in well ordered private insti-
tuition"
The report shows that desertions from
The army have been reduced more than
three per cent. The coast defenses have
been strengthened and the 100000 ap-
propriated for sites fol fortifcrtions
have been judiciOusly assigned. The ex-
pertinent of enlisting Indians is one that
the BANNER is particularly interested in,
having been the first journal (some years
ago), to propose the measure. We do
not say that Secretary Proctor acted
upon our advice, indeed, we do not
know as he had any knowledge of the
suggestion, but that the proposal was
made by us, following some of the more
aggravated massacres, is on record. The
report says:
In March last a general order was
issued authorizing the enlistment of one
company of Indians for each of the 26
regiments of white cavalry and infantry
serving west of the Mississippi River.
The primary object, fully justifying the
experiment, in my judgment, was to
give employment, in useful and legiti-
mate channels, to a considerable number
of Indians of the warlike tribes. The
results have been very satisfactory.
Seven companies, three of cavalry and
four of infantry, have been recruited to
their full complement, and seven others
partially, and the reports indicate that
the organization Of these will be com
pleted at an early day. In good conduct,
drill and military bearing, attention to
duty, observance of courtesies and care
of horses, arms and equipment, clothing,
barracks, mess rooms and kitchens, they
are at least equal to soldiers of other

claim to be applying disinfectants, per-
haps can handle the subject in another
and later communication. The McKin-
ley bill has made the Hdbitdns tired. A
year ago they kept most of their old hay
on account of the tariff. This spring
they had to sell for what they could get.
A significant fact is that all the Tory pa
pers rejoiced over the result of the cleo

JOY would have flowed over.

NEWS ann NOTES.

The sympathy of the Democratic
press for the poor Ohio wool growers
during the recent elections was loud and
pathetic-if not profound. Under the
malign influence of the protective tariff
the demand for Ohio wool had so d.
minished that it had become unstable.
and the story of the poor farmer who
went to market with load of wool and
stood there all day without a puT-
chaser was rehearsed by every Demo
cratic paper and orator in the land. In
! deed, the unhappy farmer was kept
standing in the market place during the
whole campaign, and it is not yet certlin
that he has escaped to his home. That
the touching narrative failed of its in
tended effect was amply shown by the
result of the election in Ohio. The Buck
eye farmer is no fool, and showed his
wisdom by holding on to his wool and
voting the Republican ticket. Recent
wool sales in London show that the
prices are equivalent to less than %
cents for Ohio wool, while the Ohio
farmer has been receiving from 26 to 80
cents at home. 1t would have cost him
probably three cents a pound in freight
and commissions to sell his wool in Lon
don, so that the tariff, by keeping ont
foreign woods, has secured him price
II cents above what he could get in the
British market. This is an object lesson
which the Ohio wool grower is not likely
to forget.
Concerning two noted men of Yer
mont's earlier years, w. p. Baxter of
Chicago, contributes the following
brief biographical summary: "Wilfiam
Cyar Bradley, born in Westminster,
March 23d, 1882, son of Stephen r.
Bradley, was the first native to repre-
sent the State of Vermont as a member
of Congress, May oath, 1918, March Sd,
1915, March Sd, 1928, March Sd, 1927.
Solomon Foote, born in Cornwall. Nov,
10th, 1902, son of Doctor Solomon
Foote, was the first native to represent
the State of Vermont in the United
States Senate, March Sd, 1851 to March
2Sth, 1866, the date of his decease at
Washington, D. g."
So long as the miners of East Ten
nessee confined their hostility to con-
victs they had the public with them.
Now, however, those at Oliver Springs
have instituted war upon free colored
miners and have struck because ten of
their number have warrants out for
their arrest for attacking their colored
co-laborers recently. This conduct can
have no other effect than to deprive
them of the general sympathy their
crusade against convict labor had won
for them. For this reason they can
hardly afford to go into a race war.
There is too much at stake.
There are 1000 maple sugar makers
in the United States, and only one-ffth
of these have applied for their share of
the sugar bounty awarded by the last
Congress. OF these 2,517 are in Yer
mont. The bean harvest may fall in
Massachusetts,, Kansas prairies may be
blighted, and the potato bug may de-
vastate, but maple sugar, marble and
Republican victories are three unfailiag
crops in Vermont.
