NEGLECTED OPPORTUNITIES.

Vermont politicians, and the COVER
nors of this commonwealth in particular,
neglect an opportunity which they ought
to embrace. 1t is what is known in the
Bostonese dialect as the "cattle show;
in plain United States as the fair. Massa-
chusetts governors spend the better part
of every fall enlightening the agricultur-
al population with speeches at these
gatherings and delighting them with the
chance of seeing live statesmen. They
always 90 accompanied by their stats in
full regalia. But, then, Massachusetts,
governors hope for reflections, which
makes it worth their while to thus ex-
hibit themselves, and our governors
don't. Yet our would-be governors
might adopt the plan and give the sol
diers' reunions and such like assem-
blages, which have hitherto been their
main reliance, a rest.-Middlebury Regis

GOLDIE.

"He was one of the tough newsboys,
but honest, like most of his kind, though
equally ready for a word or a blow.
When he came out in his full glory, was
when he had sold all his morning papers,
and had funds enough to treat his little
sister Goldie to street car ride in the
afternoon.
"Then he was different kind of kid,
and we all had something so say to the
5-year-old girl, who was being brought
up by an aunt, the mother of the two
children having deserted them some
time previous.
1--WE fellows on the cars got we'll ac-
quainted with Goldie and her brother,
and we had a sneaking affection for
Goldie, and that was why we were all
broken up when ON Monday morning as
we went down on an early trip, we saw
Bob-we never knew his real name
jump on the car with tears streaming all
over his face:
Here's-yer-mornin' p-p-p-a-p-e-r-s,
all about the collery in Azuh-'
whats the matter, Bob?' we asked.
'GOl-d-i-e's dead here's yer mornin,

we grabbed right and left for papers,
relieving him of all he had, Was the

that's for Goldie'

''He walked off with something of his
old swagger, but he saw that his thin
shoulders were shaken with sobs, but
there were such mist in our own eyes
that we could not see very well-for
Goldie had been more to us than we
knew, and it has seemed lonesome-like
on the cars ever since, for Bob don't
sell papers any more. "-Detroit Free

HE DID NOT GALL.

The man who tried DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy and was sure of the $500 reward
offered by the proprietors for an incura-
BILE case, never called for his money.
Why not? o, because he got curedl He
,cas sure of two things: ~ That his ca
tarrh could not be cured. (2) That he
would have that 5000. He Is non sure of
one thing, and that is, that his catarrh is
gone completely. So he is out $500, OF
course. The makers of DIR. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy have faith in their ability
to cure the worst cases of Nasal Catarrh,
test their faith by their standing reward
of $500, offered for many years past, for
an incurable case of this loathsome and
dangerous disease. The Remedy is sold
by druggists, at only so cents. Mild,
soothing, cleansing, deodorizing, anti
septic and healing.

SALT WATER ETIQUETTE.

The Atlantic Ocean is streaked from
one side to the other with the long, black
trailing smoke-plumes of the big, rush
ing 'record-breakers' and ocean grew.
hounds" and few are left of the gallant
old white winged craft that carried the
flag and the fame of the nation to eyery
part of the world, save some scattering
''oil Sheds" which the sailors, or to
speak more properly, the deck hands, on
the liners contemptuously refer to as
wind TANNERS. Here and there, how
ever, will be seen an occasional East
Indian semi-clipper, either bound out to
China or the East Indies, loaded with
case oil, or coming home with cargo of
hemp, jute, linseed, rattan, or some
other of the fragrant and valuable pro-
ducts of the gorgeous East. But through
all the changes in the size and rig of
vessels, through all the vicissitudes of a
life on the ocean wave, the captain of a
ship, be it big or little, is, as rule, as
punctilious in the matter of etiquette as
a Spanish grandee. And the etiquette of
the sea is a wonderful thing. A hail
from little 75-ton 'fore and AFTER will
be answered with as much regard for the
properties by an East Indian ship of 1000
tons as it would be by one of his own
size, and when the big ship has been run
through storm and fog by "dumb luck
and dead reckoning" the appearance of
the little one is hailed with delight, as
affording a means of rectitying possible
errors in reckoning. An instance of this
kind occurred off Cape Cod a short time
ago, when the captain of ship with a
valuable cargo and crew of twenty-five
men, as the fog lifted about noon of the
seventh consecutive day without an OBJ
servation, saw almost under his bows
little 'cordwood coaster" creeping along
under mainsail and jib, with her skipper
at the wheel and her crew Zone mani
vigorously hauling away at the jib
sheet.
''Ship ahoyr' roared the skipper.

The skipper knew where he was and
the master of the Calcutta ship was I'M
certain. So when the answer was given
he was much relieved, for it showed
that he was nearer home than he had
reckoned. But he was going to have his
talk out anyway, and although the little

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Are the mainstay of our Republic. In
them are being cultivated the minds
which are to be our future Lawmakers
and leaders in every walk in life. How
essential it is that these minds should be
united to strong, healthy bodies. So
many children suffer from impurities
and poisons in the blood that it is Won
der that they ever grow up to be men
and women. Many parents cannot find
words strong enough to express their
gratitude to Hoods Sarsaparilla for its

whole being is given strength to resist

SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS.
Committee Asked for to Investi-
gate High Officials.

WASHINGTON. May 5.-Aeting by re-
quest, Mr.. Otis, of Kansas, submitted
to the house committee on private land
claims, at its meeting today, resolu-
tion in which 1t is charged that Secre-
tary Noble had wrongfully refused to
enforce a valid order of tie interior de-
partment of Jan. %, 1874, requiring the
land claimed by the Maxwell grant
claimants to be treated as public lands,
by falsely alleging that decision of the
supreme court stands i'll the way of en-
forcing the order. Charges are also
brought against Commissioner Carter,
of the land Office.
The resolution says that the wrongful
procedure of the secretary and COM
missioner was the result of conspiracy,
i'll 1877, of Hon. S. B. Elkins, then a
delegate to congress from New Mexico:
Hon. T b. Catron. then United States
attorney for New Mexico, and Hon. j.
F. Williamson. then commissioner of
the general land Office, TO defeat the en-
forcement of the order, to prevent hon.
est settlers obtaining homes, to confer
OH owners of private lands vested rights
without due process of law, and to de-
fraud the United States of its surveyed
public lands. The resolution then asks
that committee be appointed to make
investigation into the alleged wrong
doing and conspiracy. The committee
did not take action in the matter.

WASHINGTON, May Sc. c. Waters.
formerly manager of the Yellowstone
Park association, today resumed his
testimony before the house committee
on public lands, but failed to bring the
papers concerning leases which he had
promised to bring. Waters said that he
had never spoken to Russell Harrison
on the subject of putting stock in trust
for him, but had put the stock in trust
for Mr.. Harrison without that gentle
mans knowledge.
Chairman MeRae-Did you appeal to
Russell Harrison to help you in that
matter?
Witness-I think l asked him to say
to the secretary that anything said
could be relied on.
Waters said that he did not know R.
G. KerenS. but had used Kerens' name
as trustee for the stock because from
events which had taken place in Mon
tana he knew Kerens to be a friend Of
Russell Harrison.
Mr.. McRae wanted to know whether
the stock set aside for Russell Harrison
was for consideration or as gift; but
the answer of the witness was not
definite, and several times he said he
did not know exactly why he had it set
aside. except that he wanted Russell
Harrison to have it. Finally he said
that he had asked Russell Harrison to
see the secretary of the interior. and he

again for something right and proper.

FINANCIAL.
New York.

New YORK May 5.--The stock market to-
day exhibited more animation than on any
previous day this week, and it developed
marked strength in few stocks, principally
the grangers, while the coalers were slug
gish, not to say heavy, and the industrials
were weak. The general MARKET however,
displayed an advancing tendency. The most
important movement was in Sugar, and the
declining tendency which has marked the
course of the stock for the last few days was
intensified into positive weakness and sub
stantial loss resulted.
The strength in the grangers was hailed as
most encouraging signal, though the heavy
drop in Sugar was too much for the force ap-
piled today. and the best prices were not
maintained when the rest of the market gave
way, There was material decline in both
Reading and Lackawanna, which, with Mis-
;souri Pacific and Tennessee Coal, were the
special weak spots in the railroad list
The upward movement of the forenoon
lasted only during the first hour, after which
there was slow but steady depreciation in
values. and the early gains were nearly wiped
out. while most stocks were carried below
the level of last nights figures, and remained
