There is an apparently well-found-

has rendered his resignation to the
President, to take effect at an early
day, presumably June 30. Mr..

The May debt statement issued
Monday shows an apparent increase
of $3.50, 900 in the debt during the

for the payment of the debt. The

SheIdOn--Merriam,

The wedding of Charles Monroe Sheldon
and Mary Abby Merriam took place at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. L. B. Merriam. OIL
College avenue, at Z O'Clock last evening
Rev. Stewart Sheldon, the groom's father
ofhcIated and solemnized the uniting in mar
riage of his son and the daughter of one OF
his dearest friends with a touching and
beautiful ceremony. The little assemblage
which witnessed the tying of the gordiau
knot was composed only of the families OF
the contracting parties, with the exception
of three persons. Those relatives from out
of town were Charles w. Merriam and Mrs.
Alice Merriam of Chicago, Mrs. Lucy Mes
ser, also of Chicago, John Harmon and Mrs.
Nell Harmon of Kansas City and DR.. H. w.
Sheldon of Negaunee. Mich.
The bride, beautiful lady, was charming
ly attired in a Grecian dress of white China
silk, trimmed with white lace, and carried a
bunch of white roses. Miss Agnes Sheldon
sister of the groom, and Miss Bertha Love
well were bridesmaids. Miss Sheldon's cos
tune was also of Greek design, a handsome
light blue China silk trimmed with white lace
set off with corsage of pink roses. Miss
Lovewell was attired in u pink and white
surah silk, with marechal neil roses
Prof. L. d. Whittemore and Mr.. +. D.
Merriam were the groom's best men,
Extensive decorations of rare and beauti-
full flowers gave an additional charm to the
scene and the event sweet and impressive
one to those present.
While the wedding was a quiet and small
one, the reception afterwards was large AT
$50 the doors of the elegant residence were
thrown open, and about 300 friends called to
express their good wishes to the bride and
groom. Heck's orchestra discoursed sweet
strains throughout the evening and refresh
ments were elegantly served in the dining
room. The reception ended at II o'clock

A Little Sum in Arithmetic.

There were sos regular delegates
at the recent convention in Cincin-
natl from the states of Kansas and
Nebraska. Their railway fare must
have cost them in the neighborhood
OF $50 apiece. Their hotel bills and
meals footed up at least So or SO
apiece. Their incidental expenses are
small, and they carried their own
"gripsacks;" but, on the average.
the whole trip did not cost them less
than $75 apiece If this basis of
computation be correct, then the

Avoid Litigation.

The man, who can devise some
means to keep out Of law and at the
same time insure to all the peaceful
enjoyment Of their legal rights, may
possibly lay himself open to an in
junction at the suit at the Bar, but,
to compensate, will merit and re-
ceive the thanks of a suffering pub
lie. To look for such a device may
be to anticipate a too near approach
of the millennium, but, if there is one
thing more than another that will
cOnduce to this end, it is that every
man should look carefully to his
contracts. No one should enter into
q contract or sign a paper which he
does not fully understand. Let this
obtain and the grand aggregate OF
law suits would be materially dimin-
ished.
There is no class of contracts of so
great possible Importance as policies
of insurance, and none so little I'M
derstood by the general public. 1t
is probably safe to say that not one
policy holder in fifty ever reads his
policy. This is wrong. The assured
should carefully study his contract
with the company in order that he
may know what is required of him
that his insurance may be and re-
main valid.
Such thorough understanding OF
the terms of the contract is second in
Importance only to being insured in
first class company. H. M. Nc
Farland will be pleased not only to
give you insurance in the best ofcom-
panies at lowest rates, but to answer
or explain any question that may
arise under the policy. He is making

make the following offer;
For One Dollar he will pay the
freight to all stations between
Fletcher and Hardwick inclusive,
on any quantity of Salt that may
be ordered up to 5000 pounds.
This would bring the price, freight
prepaid, SO for one ton or So. 50

A Chance for Vermont Farmers

The high altitude to which prices
of beef have climbed during the past
few weeks has excited considerable
comment, and consumers viii I'M
doubtedly be interested to learn that
there is no immediate prospect of a
marked change from the present
figures. The New England Grocer
says that beef will not be so cheap
for a long time as it has been during
the past two years, and that it will
be no lower than at the present time
for at least two months. 1t SCOTS at
the claim that this appreciation in
prices is the result of a combination,
alleging that mo concern or con-
Germs can control a market for per-
ishable goods" 1t says that one
cause of the advance is the scarcity
caused by this large number of cattle
that have been exported, while an
other is the sharp advance in the
price OF corn and grain. The Grocer
says that people in the west are not
feeding their cattle so as to prepare
them for the market, and there are
no cattle coming in. 1t conclude
that after about two months the
grass-fed cattle will be coming in,
when beef may drop a little; but
grass-fed cattle are not fattened like
granted stock, so too much conf
dence cannot be placed in the advent
of grass-fed beef
