Messrs. Dickey 4 Chandler, OF Stan
ton, open their creamery on Sunday
morning to receive the milk Furnished
by their various customers, and also
operate their separator for about two
hours to extract the cream therefrom.
This necessary work was objected to
by some OF the members Of the Nj. Z.
Church, and the result was a com
plant to Esquire Richardson, who
summoned Messrs Dickey a. Chandler
before him on Thursday evening to
show why they should not be mulcted
into fine and costs for their violation
of tho Sabbath.
A large number of farmers were
Summoned, who testified that II the
creamery should he closed on Sunday
morning they and their families would
be subjected to the performance of {
great deal OF work in taking care oil
the milk and washing pans. etc. The
Squire after hearing the testimony o.
both sides said that while personally
opposed TO Sunday work he felt 1t tt
be his duty to sustain the managers %
the creamery, and il the complainants
did not agree with him they coult
carry the case to higher court.
They replied that they were salts

How does Italy, q country without
gold mines, find the gold to pay the ten
millions year due to foreign holders of
her bonds, not to speak of the heavy bal
ance against her on her foreign trade?
Mr.. Dering, secretary of tho British EN-
bassy in Rome, declares that the only
solution of the question at which it is
logically possible to arrive is that this
amount of gold is annually brought into
the country by foreign travellers, who
swarm during the four seasons of the
year in one part of Italy or the other.
From calculations made by the United
States consular representatives in vari-
GUS parts of this country it has been
computed that for the last ten years the
average expenditure in Italy Of Ameri-
can citizens has been about ca 900, 900.
MIR. Dering thinks it would scarcely be
an exaggeration to place the collective
expenditure Of British, French, Austrian,
German and other foreign travellers at
double this amount.
This, we are reminded, is irrespective
Of the money spent In tho country by
the $4,000 to 10000 pilgrims who annu-
ally visit the Eternal City, and of the
amount of which they are tho bearers in
the shaps Of donations TO the holy see.

He often said that "thaout no dare

some HOSES he'd full as much sense as

sation was tinged by this belief, and he
drew many an illustration from his fav-

habit Of his was the cause of much con-
fusion to young man to whom Mr..
Stone was talking.
The young man was professional
musician who had been spending part
of the summer at q neighboring farm
house, and had had the audaeity to fall
in love with Mr.. Stones pretty daughter
Jenny. He was listening to the farmers
various reasons for opposing his suit
one summer evening, just before his re.
turn to the city. -. .......
