In the Police Court today, when Deputy

The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1893-11-17

One of the notable oddities of charac-
ter that distinguish Sarah Berlhardt is
her love of making pets of all manner of
queer beasts and reptiles, such as would
give the ordinary woman cold chills. 1t
is an asp, or an alligator, ora horned toad
that she takes to her bosom and laYishes
her sweetest caresses upon, and the Wis
itor to her boudoir is almost sure to get
a succession of short, sharp shocks from
stumbling in dark corners across all
sorts of horrid little beasts Her fancy
changes much, and on a foreign trip she
is sure to pick half a dozen new afro
cities, so that her menagerie is looked for
on her return with interest second only
to that bestowed on her divine self. Her
recent tour in South America was ex-
pected to be productive of whole reti-
nue. of new horrors, but her fancy took
a new turn. She got back to Paris two
or three weeks ago, All her menagerie
accompanied her, but it consisted only
of three little pumas, 10 monkeys of va
ried degrees Of hairy ugliness, and an
aviary of 800 Or so different birds.-Ex-
change.
The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1893-11-17

The hatred Of Gladstone is almost uni
versal among the upper and upper mid
die classes in England. This hatred,
too, finds expression in violence of
language which is seldom met with in
any country except during period of
revolution or civil war, and has long
been banished from English social and
political life. One hears him in the best
circles treated as an old villain, for
whom capital punishment would be too
good, and frantic desire for his death is
openly uttered. That "G. o. NJ" stands
for Gods Only Mistake" is one of the
grim jokes Of the Conservative clubs,
and old ladies will avow their willing
ness to walk miles with peas in their
shoes to see him hanged. Stories of his
abandoned lrohigacy are of course not
generally told in public, the subject be-
ing delicate one, but they are very
prominent part of the Gladstone legend.

Liquid Fuel.

Two plans have been proposed by which
steamships may avoid carrying such vast
quantities of coal. One is to have coal
ing stations at sea at proper intervals
along the great lanes Of ocean travel.
Another is that liquid fuel shall be used
instead of coal.
The success Of the liquid fuel system
at the Colum bian exposition encourages
the idea that this kind Of steam produc-
ing material may in time take the place
of the grimy, smoky coal everywhere.
The great boiler plant at the Worlds
fair would have required no less than
$50 tons of soft coal day to keep the
machinery running.
Instead of coal, however, the directors
used liquid which was even cheaper
than crude petroleum. 1t was by
product of the refining of kerosene for
illuminating purposes and was piped to
the exposition grounds from Whiting,
Ind. 1t poured into burners directly
under the boilers by means of half inch
pipes. A globe valve cut off the supply
of oil altogether when necessary and
the supply was regulated perfectly at
the burners themselves by means sim
liar to those that regulate the fame
of kerosene lamp. Ample precautions
were taken to secure perfect combustion
and guard against fire and explosion.
Result-entire safety and no smoke.

About Country Board.

1t is mean the way city people talk
about the honest farmer and his hospita
BILE board. Some of them are mean
enough to write about it too. They have
now all returned to their homes and are
detailing their experiences. To hear
them talk one might actually suppose
the honest farmer really capable of cheat
ing them and doing it Intentionally. One
party saw in city paper an advertise
ment of lovely rural home with plenty
of fresh milk and eggs, an avenue of
trees, crystal lake, berries and vegeta-
bles galore. They went there and found n
shabby old house with green duckpond
near it. Their first meal was called sup
per. 1t consisted of sour bread, bacon,
rank butter, coffee that could not be
drunk, green onions and cheese. For
three meals the menu was the same pre-
cisely. Then those city people rose in
their wrath and got out Of that. Even
the heated air of the great city was pref
cradle to steady diet of cheese and
!
onions. The city people declare, how
ever, that the farmer was so i'll tempered
that he would not haul them to the sta
ton. They had to walk several miles to
the village.
Another family tells story perhaps
tougher. This farmer fed his city board
ers on salt Goldfish and gingerbread, meal
after meal, day after day, while he wait
ed and they waited for the vegetables in
his garden to grow. The city boarders
were Weakened by the growing Of chick
ems at o'clock in the morning, but
never an egg saw they,
These are samples of the tales city peo-
pie took back with them to their homes
at the close of their experiences in farm
house boarding last summer We take
the liberty of doubling them. Farmers
are honest, of course. They would not
swindle anybody. The city man cheats
the guileless farmer, but the farmer
cheat the city man-never! Guile is not
in the agricultural heart. There is some
thing in the constant association with
nature, in the living under the blue sky
and sunlight, that fosters the generous
and correct feelings. When therefore
the farmer advertises pleasant drives
plenty of fresh eggs and milk, abundance
of green vegetables, berries in unlimited
supply, with all kinds of summer fruit
for the city boarder, of course he means
Just that. Of course!
