THEY WILL CLEAN THE STREETS.

THEY WILL CLEAN II STREETS.
The girls studying in Packer Collegi-
ate lnstiture, in Brooklyn, have taken
up the streetcleaning problem, and are
debating it with intelligence and earn
estness. But it points very decidedly
towards municipal suffrage for women
when President Backus, of the Insti-
tute, says:
The men of this city are too busy to
attend to public affairs, and we believe
the time is coming when the women
will have to see that the streets are
properly cleaned, so we are drilling
our girls to inform themselves on the
subject, as well as ON other public
questions.
Maybe the coming of the cholera,
which will compel the cleaning of the
streets, will also secure for women
their right to a vote as well as to a
helpful hand in making safe conditions
for cities and towns.
Here is still another sign in favor of
municipal suffrage for women. The
New York Mail and Express says:
The Ladies' Health Protective AS
ISOLATION is bound to have the streets
clean, despite Tom Brennan. The
members held a private meeting TODAY
at No. SO West Fifty Sixth Street.
Mrs, Henry Newton presided. The
dirty street situation was discussed at

Oldest Settlements In the United States

In 1865 the first permanent settlement
in the United States was made at st.
Augustine, Fla, by a party of Span
iards under Melendez. Between the
years 1910 and 1888 Francisco Vasauez
de Coronado and Don Antonio de
Espejo explored New Mexico and oc.
cupied temporarily various points in
that region. In the latter year Don
Antonio de Espejo took possession of a
native pueblo, or town, called Tueas or
Toas, and named it La Ciudad de Santa
Fe, which was identical in site with
the present capital of New Mexico.
Between 1890 and 1895 forts, colonies
and missions were established-in New
Mexico by Juan de Ouate. In 1907 the
first permanent English settlement
was planted by the London company
in Virginia at jamestown, which was
so called in honor of James l. In 1914
the Dutch planted an infant settlement
on Manhattan island, which they call
ed New Amsterdam. and in 1915 a set
Element was made at Albany by the
same nation.

SIX OF US AFFLICTED
With Crusty, Scaly Skin Disease.
1t TOrmented Us All. Almost
Drove My Wife Mad.
Doctors and Medicines Failed. In
slant Relief and Speedy Cure
Of All by Cuticura.

Three years ago my wife, four little children, and
myself were afflicted with q crusty, scaly disease
of the skin. 1t tormented US all. Such q plague l
hope will never again visit my family. My
children's ages were respectively nine, seven, and
four years, except the youngest, who was only
two months old. OF all our suffering, my wife
suffered the most. 1t almost drove her mad. The
disease first made it's appearance on ny wife's
back between the shoulders, and spread across TO
her breast. 1t looked like 1t was covered over with
little scales. l first bought of a drug store
medicine for skin disease, which failed to do any
good whatever. l next employed q doctor who
gave relief for a short while. After trying him for
quite q while without ~effecting q cure, l called in
another doctor who proved to do no better than the
first. After this l bought CUTICURA REMEDIES Of
Messrs. Purcell, Laid & Co., Richmond, Va,
having read of them in a newspaper. Relief fol-
lowed the fist application, and five or six sets
cured all OF us. l do not know what the disease
was we had, 1t affected us all alike, but l do know
CUTIcURA cured us of that skin disease.

THE SPECIAL TOWN MEETING.

There was no large crowd present at
the town hall last Saturday evening in
response to a call for special town
meeting to take action on the exemption
of the Carpenter Lathe and Tool Com
pany. In fact, there were just eight
voters present, not over five OF whom
voted. But the business was done up in
shape, Just the same. Harvlin Paddock
was chosen moderator, and when the
matter was put formally before the
house, John c. Clark, as one OF the sign
ers of the call for meeting, stated the
case for the petitioners. 1t was intend
ed. he said, to include this company in
the vote taken at the annual meeting
exempting the Laird & Sweeney Com
pany and the Dupont Hammer Com
pany, but through an oversight the
Carpenter Company was omitted from
the list. 1t went without saying that
the people of St. Johnsbury were ready
to do tor this company what they had
done for the Others, and he thought the
vote might as well be taken now as any
time, since another call for meeting
might not bring out larger number
Z. E. Sargent took substantially the
same view of the case; said due notice
had been given, and if anybody had in
tended to oppose the measure suggested
in the call, that opposition would have
shown up at this time.
E. D. Blodgett was inclined to wait
till more of the voters could be
assembled before taking definite action.
A motion by E. E. Sargent was put,
and the vote taken, extending to the
Carpenter Lathe Company the same
privileges as were given the Others at
the annual meeting. 1t was not neces-
sary to divide the house-there was not
enough of the house to divide
and nobody voted no, so far as we
could hear.

THE RAIN INTERPRETED.

Rain fortunately stepped in-or rather
fell inland stopped a very uninteresting
game Of ball on Tuesday afternoon, be-
tween the Village nine and what was
advertised to be the Dartmouth Re-
serves" The home team had its own
way from the start, the visitors show
ing very little practical knowledge Of
ball playing. In fact, there is a lurking
suspicion that they were not the Dart
mouth Reserves-that the Reserves went
somewhere else to play, while these rep
resentatives OF the college came up to
afford our boys little wholesome prac-
tice. The members of the Village nine
put up very good game of ball; it was
about the first time they had played to-
gether, and they gave promise OF excel
lent work later on when they try their
powers on genuine ball team. Shufelt
and Gauthier did the battery act with
their old-time gracefulness, and Quack-
enboss and French also did pretty work
in that line. Both inheld and out6eld
showed to good advantage, and it looks
as though Manager King could rely on
the team for some very interesting exhi-
billions this season. The score on this
occasion was 16 to 1, and the grand
stand looked pleasant. 1t is to be hoped
that games can be arranged soon with
some crack teams.

OUR CHINAMEN ARRESTED.

Another chapter in the story of Chi
nese smuggling across the border into
the States was reached on Friday last,
when three officials from Boston arrived
in town and arrested Frank Parks, the
Chinaman who runs laundry on East
ern Avenue. Frank was considerably
surprised when informed that he was
wanted for helping smuggle his fellow
countrymen into the United States. He
was jailed that evening and taken
the next day to Burlington to answer
to the charge before the proper authori-
ties. Chin Poy of Lyndonville was also
included in the arrest. 1t is alleged that
Cinnamon coming from Montreal were
taken in charge by Frank Lee, laun-
dryman at Sherbrooke, P. O., who, after
hiding them few days. forwarded them
to the Lyndonvlle Celestial, who, with
Frank Parks, helped them along on their
journey down country.
Parks, the Eastern avenue laundryman
has borne reputable name hereabouts
and has friends OF another nationality
who believe that if he has been at al
concerned in this smuggling scrape i
was with no real knowledge of the lille
galty of the proceeding, but was simpl,
the result of desire on his part to b
hospitable to his confieres.
There is no doubt that quite tratfi
of this sort has been carried on in thi
vicinity, but just how deeply the 81
Johnsbury Chinaman has been intereste
remains to be seen.

$4,000. Mr.. Wards loss on household
goods will be heavy as but few of his
things were saved. He had some in
surance in the Sun, through F. Switser's
agency. The cause of the fire is not
known. The floors had been oiled the
previous night, and spontaneous COM
buston was first limited at as having re-
suited from the oily rags; but the fire
was first seen in the shed, whereas the
rags had been thrown into the sink in
the kitchen, so that the spontaneous
combustion theory seems hardly tenable.
