The SlOVersVills trlendS oil keV. ana Mrs,
Thompson Presents I Tokens of Esteem.
In giving a farewell surprise party as a
testimonial TO Rev and Mrs T. G.. Thomp-
son, the new pastor of the Methodist church
here and his VIE, the people Of Glovers-
vile, n. y, showed their deep apurecia-
ton OF the services OF Mr.. Thompson in
many ways. The Daily STANDARD says Of
the affair: "The first speaker was the Rev.
d. A. Finch, who spoke in glowing terms
of his regard for the departed pastor and
of the splendid work accomplished by the
church during his ministry there.
"The chairman, MR.. 81. thompson, said
that the next speaker would tie butcher
than lie was and at this hint Mr.. Nelson
Duc cher came forward and, in Few words,
presented Rev. Mr.. Thompson with very
handsome gold watch and Chain. Tho
reverend gentleman was thoroughly sur.
prised and, in accepting the gtc made Il
few earnest remarks. Le said that his re-
ception was a surprise t. a..n tie also said

necessary, Us they had mnai esteI it all

IN. T.. Brock way stated tLet the financial
arrangements OF the aiisit hal been largely
in his charge and that from the beginning,

From the Essex County Herald
We do not believe in forestallIug public
opinion in matters relating TO Stale or
municipal elections nor in arranging things
previous TO the convention. But when the
public generally, after discussion, indicate
some special preference, and it becomes un-
mlstakably tho general feeling, we regard il
the duty OF a journalist 10 announce the
fact, and to reflect sucA sentiment, as repre-
scnting his patrons or locality. Ii has now
become evident that the name OF Col. Levi
X. Fuller IS foremost In the minds of the
people of our section for governor. Re
Gently no other uamo has been mentioned in
this part Of tho State Our people have be-
come assured OF his irrvproacnable char
acter, his ability and general fitness for the
office, and n general impression prevails
that he will b. unanimously nominated.
With Col. Fuller in that position our friends
feel that we shall have State administra-
tion that they can look back upon with
pride and satisfaction.

Trials of vermont's Senators.
From the Troy Times.I


Men in public life are credited by inazi.
native writer's with all sorts of accomplish
ments to which they are strangers. Two of
the victims, Senators Proctor and Morrill,
Of Vermont, were comparing notes lately as
to the queer tales that had been written
about them. Senator Morrill, was wrathful
over the report that had made him out u
dead shot and a confirmed seeker after game.
"N by, " said he, sits so long since | even
bad gun in my hand that | do not believe
/ should know the muzzIe from tho safe
end" That's nothing" interjected Proc
tor. zone Of the last things | ever saw
about me said was an accomplished horse
breaker and there was picture supposed
to represent me- decked out in a swallow
tail coat and cracking a long whip at a
risky horse that was dancing around Inc on
its hind legs till looked like the ring mas
ter in a circus.

Ben Abou in the New York Press
Senator Proctor of Vermont, who was in
the city yesterday with the committee on
immigration, when asked about politics, re-
pliel at looks as il the old tickets OF 1865
would be in the field again this year. The
democrats have about settled on Mr.. Cleve-
land for their nomnse. How they will Ia
able to reconcile the nomination of a sound
money candidate, with the course of their
party in the direction OF unsound money
aud free silver coinage will be one OF the
problems to disturb their serenity. They
will be between two horns Of Il dilemma
the seizing of either one OF which will i'm
pale them"

The Art of Putting Things"

Some years ago young man went
to New York in search CT employ
ment and fortune. He carried his
own trunk to lodging house because
he could not afford the expense of a
hired carrier. His honest face and
speech won for him his landlady's
consent to a weeks living on tick
So far good. Now, then, for the bold
plunge. Heswent to the offices Of
several leading newspapers and in
vested his last quarter in an adver-
tisement thus worded: IL want some
thing to do and must have it in
twenty-four hours. Address, Push,
this Office" In little while he had
received about three hundred answers
to his unique demand for employ
ment. One business man wrote:
"Call at nine o'clock to-morrow morn
ing and / may give you a chance to
see how vigorously you can push. !"
The tone Of that reply pleased our
adventurer, and at the appointed
hour he presented himself at the
writer's Office. The result was a
trial engagement, which has continued
until this time, The young adver-
tiser is now the confidential man of
the house, having proved that push"
is his dominant characteristic.

Creole. Build in that space three
rows of buildings, such as there are
here, two against each high wall and
one over the creek bed, and you have
manufactured to order the city built
by spectators, remembering that the
buildings, as a rule, are mere shacks,
such as any mining camp can show.
The town is three-quarters Of mile
long, running into JimtOwn, where
the gulch broadens somewhat, al
though not wide enough to be called
valley.
Here 5000 people, coming and go
ing, are gathered, half of whom are
engaged in business, while the other
half are spectators, visitors, gam
blers, and sure-thing men. The mar
row streets, some of them being
not more than fifteen feet wide, are
thronged with men, teams, and bur-
ros, leaving but small space for the
idler who would sec. The sound OF
the carpenters hammer and saw re-
sembles, at little distance, the fusil-
lade Of small arms, and still the cry
is for more lumber.
Hotels are numerous, there being
nearly one hundred. 1t does not,
however, take much for a hotel, as a
plain board shanty, sixteen feet
square. with blanket for a door, is
lignified with the name palace Ho-
tel" Until a short time ago the
hotels were similar to this one, al
though many OF them were made
larger. In all, the sleeping-room held
from twenty to sixty cots, the use OF
which was granted the tenderfoot at
81 each a night, with blankets fur
nished, or without blankets only Sc
cents. The Pullman Company has
also entered the hotel business, leay'
ing on the side-track from three tC
ten sleepers. in which the anxious
Spectator could find bed on pay

the young emperor. It is misfor-
tune that this great responsibility
rests upon man so lily prepared by
nature and training to meet it. His
opinions are those OF bygone ages.
He believes himself dlvinely invested
with the powers which he exercises In
defiance Of modern views and popu-
lar disapproyal. He may be con-
scientious in his Anticipated views and
misguided course, but this only rem
ders him the less TT to meet the pend
ing crisis, for TO the stubbornness OF
his convictions is added the stubborn
ness of nature that grows stronger
and more determined when opposition
is encountered. He is not the man
ner of man to grant concessions when
they are demanded. Force will
doubtless be the resort of the en-
peror and a revolution that may
sweep him from power may be
fastened.

tiles already recognize this danger,
and are considering means to avoid it.
The daily dispatches from this
camp announce the hundreds daily
arriving, but say nothing of the
nearly equal number departing.
There are two reasons why so many
leave after remaining from two to six
days. 1t takes but twenty-four hours
usually to discover that, instead Of
being a second Leadville, Creole is
destined to become fair little min
ing camp Of possibly 1000 people.
Second, weeks stay means death to
many who may have heart trouble, or
are predisposed to that disease.
Creole has an altitude of 5000 feet,
and is so situated in a narrow gulch
that the sun reaches it but about two
hours each day. Jimtown has the
sun fully seven hours, but otherwise
Is the same as the town which gives
name to the entire camp.
Many who visit this camp and are
disappointed will remain in Colorado,
which is good State. This accounts
for the united effort of the Colorado
papers to boom Creole, hoping to
catch some Of the returning wave.
