There will be Christmas concert at
the church on Thursday evening, Dee
~. I'm unusually Interesting programme
is being provided, and it is certain that
all who attend will be we'll paid.
Rev. Robert Barton was married in
Burlington on Wednesday, Nov. %, to
Miss Matte Holden of Burlington, for
mrrly of Middlebury. Miss Holden is
well known in Middlebury and vicinity
rs an estimable and exemplary young
lady, whose Christian character is lived
as well as expressed. She has been
teaching for some time in different To-
calities, where she has gained the repu-
tation OF fine teacher. On Friday eve
ming, Dec. II, reception was given, at
Walter Bushes, to Mr.. and Mrs. Bar
ton. Seven different towns were rep
resented and Il large number of friends
were present to extend their congratu-
lations to the happy couple. With sing
ing, social chatting and bountiful
supply of refreshments for all very
pleasant evening was passed. All eX-
pressed their pleasure at being present
md wished the pastor and ms wife
long life of successful service. The
presents, which were quite extensive and
very useful, together with the large
number present, speak louder than
words the love and esteem in which Mr..
Barton is held in the community where
he labors.
The "middle" pulp mill of Kingsley
Bros. caught fire about ) o'clock Fri
day morning, Dee. IL. from the stone.
The church bell gave the warning and
large number of men were soon on the
spot. The fire, catching from the stone,
ran in the elevators and soon spread
from the basement to the roof and in IA
very short time was burning through the
roof in several places. 1t looked for
some time as though the mill must go,
but there was no wind and plenty of
water, and after Il little plenty of lad
ders, and no steamer or educated fire
company to wait for, and with the per
slstent efforts of IA large number who
worked with Il will the mill was saved
without very heavy damage. The King
sley Bros. are running three pulp
mills-two dry and one wet-night and
day and employ quite large force of
men. They are largely the life and en-
terprise of the place. They met with
severe loss by fire last year and it is to
be hoped that the like may not occur
again At any rate it is to be hoped that
the proprietorS will now make use of
the splendid privilege there is AT each
mill for flooding them with water in case
of fire.

INTERNATIONAL TELEGRAPHS.
The Necessity Of Reading Every Dispatch
Critically.

One important instance of the art with
which it is necessary to read every item of
telegraphic news-minutely Analysing its
source and route and phrasing, and even its
punctuation if the intelligence be worth the
trouble-will suffice. How many persons
know that the lid of the Argentine troubles
which now convulse the financial world
was first lifted by telegraphie mschance?
On the LIST Of last July the London Times
announced that the Argentine National
Bank had suspended payment. 1t had done
something very different, as a matter of
fact, but before the correction could be
made it was telegraphed around the world.
carrying everywhere anxiety and ruin. OF
course the telegram did not cause the mer
camille unsounduesS which resulted in the
instant loss OF scores of millions and lin
gerng sequel of incaleulable total But
still the announcement Of bankruptcy was
wrongly made in the worlds model journal.
How did 1t happen? 1t was all matter
OF punctuation. Ocean kilograms contain
no punctuation. There is no way of cabling
a period or quotation mark. Where pune
ta o1d Is absolutely the full
graphed. This Hateful message arrived at
the Office of the London Times in this shape:
Argentine National Bank announced sus-
pension payment quarterly dividend ordered
last annual meeting" etc. The editor in
new sentence with capital Q. and the
world was thrilled. 1t ought not to have
happened, but, to give the telegrapher his
due. he is not always aud solely to blame.
Is there any moral to these professional
anecdotes? One suggestion possibly worth
reviyiDg is that confusion Of time reckon
ing should be obviated by the adoption
everywhere of the same name for the same
instant of time. Monday mere is not Mon.
day in the Antpodes. Even between conn
tries so neighborly as England and the
United States there is ample room for puz-
cling and laundering between P. NJ. of
Monday and A. M. Of Tuesday. Every one
