How TO Throw a Horse and Kill Him,

How TO Throw Horse and Kill Him,
There is certain way that ex-
perienced stockmen know of throwing
a horse down so to break his neck and
kill him at once. An ordinary halter
is put on the horse, the lead strap
from it passed between the horses
front legs, q turn being taken around
the far one near the fetlock The
executioner then hits the horse
sharp cut with whip, and when he
jumps up pulls sharply and strongly
on the halter strap. The horse strikes
head first, with the entire weight on
his neck The fall is invariably fatal

New York, Sept. 26--A Buenos Ayres
dispatch to the World says: 1.-The bonn
bardment OF Rio de Janeiro which be-
gan on Saturday was suspended soon
after the bombardment began. The
foreign warships in harbor hoisted sig
nails signifying their desire that the
firing should cease. The signals were
recognized by Admiral Mello and the
latest news is that the firing upon the
city has been suspended pending nego-
tiations"
The Herald's Montevideo dispatch
says News comes from Rio Janeiro
that Fort Santa Cruz is still holding
out against the attack of he rebel fleet
under Admiral Mello. The report that
Desterro on Santa Caterina Island has
been captured by the rebels is con-
firmed.
Another Buenos Ayres dispatch says
"Ge. Pelligrini, at the head of the gov

A Blizzard Week.
~ a Oko Jals11
Business alta Standstill
All New England suffers.


This has been veritable blizzard
week, nearly three feet of snow
having fallen. 1t began Sunday
night and continued through the
greater part of Monday. Tuesday
was a passable day until night when
the wind rose and blew terribly until
near morning when it began to snow
again, the "beautiful" falling heavily
throughout Wednesday, followed at
night by another severe blow. The
greater part of the time from Monday
until yesterday all communications
with the outside world was cut off.
The stage from this place to Chester
failed to make its Mondays trip but
did go and return on Tuesday but
did not get back until last night.
The narrow gauge did nobly, the mail
train making its regular trips up to
Wednesday. The train due here that
evening did not arrive until about
noon yesterday, bringing the New
York mail. The only Boston mail
received up to last night was on
Tuesday. Wednesdays st. Johns
bury daily Republican was received
at this office yesterday but no Rut-
land Herald was received through
the week until last night. AS to COM
munications with surrounding towns
there has been none whatever. AT
no time in the last nine years has the
SITTER gone to press without some
news from surrounding towns. We
are simply snow bound and have to
make the best of it.
AS near as we can learn the storm
has been general throughout New
England and New York. Every
where in this district travel has been
impeeded and the railroads have been
great sufferers.

Reflections on the Tendency of Ciergymen
to Hirsute Adjournment.

Reflections on the Tendency of Ciergymen
to Hirsute Adjournment.
An attack has been made in the col
umns of a religious contemporary upon
the growing tendency among clergymen
to adorn themselves with boards. The
author of the spirited onslaught admits
that he is layman, and he treats the
matter from purely lay point of view.
Being present at recent ordination, he
declares that the gentlemen presented
for holy orders could in nowise be ac-
FUSED Of being company of 'beardless
boys;' on the contrary, every hirsute
facial adornment possible was to be
found among them, from flowing mus
tache to luxuriant side whiskers and
beard" He further wishes that the
clergy could hear their lay critics on the
subject Of "hairy parsons" as in that
case he fancies that they could not con-
tinue to treat it as trivial matter, and
he finishes up his letter by the extraor-
binary remark that the wearing Of
whiskers and beard lust makes the
difference between looking like a gen.
tleman or the reverse"
This is certainly rather hard on the
hundreds and thousands of gentlemen
who have abjured the use of the razor.
Would the critic maintain that they
have all suffered fatal degeneracy of
appearance by this conduct! No doubt
there may be people who still hold to the
superstition that a gentleman ought to
shave, just as it was believed by our an
cestors that persons DESTROYS of being
considered to belong to "the quality
must wear wigs. The custom of wearing
the hair on the face, however, has be-
come SO general in every profession that
it might have been imagined that it had
won an established position by this time,
secure from the ouslaughts either of cler.
icals or laymen.
The critic obviously forgets that; il
may be just as damaging to a clergy.
mans influence over his parishioners te
be called "beardless boy" as to be
called a "hairy parson." And, after all
it is hardly the most manly and earnest
section of churchmen who think that 6
clergyman's principal duty is to lool
nice in surplice. 1t may somewhat al
lay the discomfort of this friend of thu
barber if he remembers that not all thu
gentlemen who are ordained become a
once rectors, or even curates. Perhaps
when they take upon themselves active
spiritual,duties they may see fit to altel
their facial appearance, and thus Their
first shave would Immediately preced'
their first sermon.-London Telegraph.

.. FRIDAY MORNING. FEB "a 1898

The cause of gold exports and the
remedy is thus described by Winthrop
Smith, banker; "The whole trouble
lies in the fact that Europe has not as
much gold as there is needed to do the
business that is done there. The rea.
son why this affects us is because we
allow Europe too great control over our
trade. If Secretary Foster should sell
S5,000,0 900 United States bonds in
London, Paris and Berlin next week,
and ship the gold proceeds direct to
Washington on a government vessel,
and give notice that he proposed to
continue the operation while gold was
purchased in New York for export, to
the extent of $50, 100000 or $780,.
900, 900, the Withdrawals of gold to
Europe would cease in ten days"
