GOV. PAGES REMARKS

We are gathered here this evening q.
celebrate and to commemorate. NOT "a
grand historic event not the centennial of
some important discovery or achievemeu.
but the founding and development ot
one of Nermonts great industries An.
why not? We have just celebrated the
centennial anniversary of the birth of on,
state, and were it not for the invigoratirr
and stimulating influence of industri4.
like the one which calls us together No..
night, Vermont would have little occasion
to celebrate and comparatively little OF.
which to be proud.

The Cat Is a Fighter.

"I have hunted tigers in India and
polar bears in the regions of eternal
snow, but the worst fight ever had
was with a common house cat" said
). w. Cooper. "I had II fine black cat
of unusual size that lept in the store
to discourage mice. One day Tom
disappeared and ws.s gone during Tic
entire summer. When he returned
with the advent of cold weather il was
easy to see that he had been prowling
in the woods. He had become wild
and savage, and when attempted to
caress him he bit me. ] determined
to punish him for that little pleasantly

would spring fo: my face and would
knock him back, losing considerable

to choke him of. When l succeeded
in doing so was afraia to let go OF

LONDON, Nov. s.-llerbcrt Gardner,
president of tho board of agriculture,
may expect q storm OF protests of
Scotch liberals ugainst his action in
prohibiting the free importation of
Canadian cattle and ordering that they
he slaughtered ut the port ut which
they are landed. This action will i'm
pose hcuvNsburdcn on the taxpayers,
MS the cost sof slaughtcriug will have
to be bornc by them, as will also be
the expense OF compcnsating the own

Williams, who is regarded MS the first
nuthority on cattle diseases in the
Kingdom. coincides with that OF the
best American and French authorities
that the cornstnlk disease is not coz
tngious. lie llus admitted that
many of the animals slaugh-

credited with having motive for their
course. 1t is said that the societies
represented by the deputation feared
that the importation Of Canadian
stock would have an important effect
upon the trade in homo pedigree
stock. The incident will quicken tho
demand for Scotch homo rule, which
would give Scotland her own board of
agriculture A deputat!on OF the Scot

upon Sir George o. Trerclyn, secretary
for Scotland, and claimed that tho
question of Scottish homo rule should
have attention simultaneous with or
directly after Irish home rule Sir
George declined to make definite
promise regarding the course Of the
government, though he showed that
he was in sympathy with tho object OF
the deputation.

Hunting Tigers in India.

The only two methods of ftiger-hunt-

another part of India, and have always
solemnly vowed that each occasion
should be their very last, only to be
found at it again on the very next op-
portunity. Some really like this
solitary watching, but it has very many
drawbacks to its enjoyment. Several
Indian sportsmcn, who have killed
their forty or !fty tigers. have told me

1t is very uncertain whena tiger will
return to the "kill." He may do so as
early rs three OF four in the afternoon,
or just before day break, or net at all,
often being frightened away, perhaps
by some unforeseen circumstance. The
slightest rustic will make him stop, and
once his suspions arc aroused, he will
not venture near. To shoot him on
foot by stalking is an impossibility.
The sportsmen will occasionally come
upon tiger when after other game,
and may then have chance OF q shot.

A Labor.Saving Device.

/ was immensely amused the other
day, says writer in the N. Y. Record
er, ct hearing of the device of New
port swell who, while well up in the
"150" is rather careless about his at
tire, to avoid the labor of dressing
completely twice y day. It seems that
he particularly objects to changing his
clothes at evening for dinner at home,
and SO absolutely declined, unless he
had to go out to dine, to put on even
ing dress, much to tho horror of his
mother and sisters. He finally con-
tidcd his troubles to young lady to
whom he is somewhat devoted, and
she suggested to him that when he
dressed in the morning he should care
fully cover his shirt front with nap
kin aud wear high-cut vests SO that
this would not be noticeable. This,
she further added, would obviate the
necessity Of changing his shirt at even
ings and do away with at least part
of the labor. He accepted the sng-
gcstion and now wears n dress suit cv.
cry evening. Joy rcigns in his ma
tcrnal household, and the swell is more
devoted to the young lady of suggest
i've ideas than over.

LORD woLsELEY's WARNING
Great Britain's Navy Cannot Prevent an

LONDON. Nov. s.-The declaration by
Lord Wolseley, commander-in-chief Of
the forces in Ireland, OF his belief that
the British navy could not DO de.
pended upon to prevent an invasion Of
England, Inns started q controversy
which two or three recent events will
holp along. The demonstration of tho
great superiority OF American nrmor
plato and tho stupidity shown by
the wreck OF tho battle ship Howe
have ,dscredised with the public even
the compliment to tho navy for its ctfi-
cheney with which Wolseley accom-
panied his warming The loss Of the
Howe was distinctly due to the rule
which has already cost the American
navy so dearly, namely, refusing the
services OF pilot which was offered by
the Spanish authoritie,
1t has been ordered by tho admiralty
that tho officers of the battle ship
Howe, which was stranded at Ferrol,
shall be tried by n court-martial for
running tho ship aground. A most
scerching inquiry into the affair has
been made demanded by tho London

4 DEMOCRATIC VICTORY
Illinois and Wi consin Join New
York.
Cleveland Has aGo, Harrison 1871 and
General wc.vcrs aa Votes in the
Electoral co,lege--Rrpnblic-
an, I.sss the senate.

New YORK, Nov o. Without consid-
ering partisan claims and leaving out
of consideration oil possible minor
changes. the returns thus far indicate
that Cleveland hns carried the solid
south. including West Virginia; that
he has won in New York by about
10000 plurality, in New Jersey by
5000 to 5000. in Connecticut by 5000,
in Delaware by 1000 in Wisconsin by
10000, in Illinois by !, 1000 to 1o. 900. lie
also gets five or six electoral votes in
Michigan. Republicans contest his
claims to Wisconsin and do not admit
the Weaver claim Of four votes in Min
nesotn. But the returns thus far re-
ceivcd justify the conclusions given
above
Indiana isstill honestly in donht,
with chances favoring u small plurality
for Cleveland.
Weaver hns apparently been success
full in Colorado. Idaho. Nevada, Nc
braska and perhaps South Dakota.
President Harrison gets the rem ,in-
der On this computation, allowing
Indiana to Cleveland, tho electoral col
lcge would stand Cleveland, 2G9;
Harrison, l5i; Weaver, 90. OF course
the official returns may make modiica-
tions in this calculation, but only in q
minor degree.
Massachusetts secms to be the only
state in which the presidential and
stnt Q tickets differed greatly in
strongth. In that state Russell, dem,
is probably elected governor, whilo
Harrison gets the electoral vote. Hnr-
rison also probably gets oil tho clacto:s
in Minnesota and carries Iowa by 15.-
coo.
The congressional returns are very
meager The republicans claim gain
of four in Massachusetts and to elect
nine out of eleven in Iowa. Nothing def
mite is known, however, at this time.
