GRAFTON.

Last Saturday afternoon as the wife
of Judge L. S. Walker was driving
from her home to Saxtons River her
horse became numanageable and ran,
throwing Mrs. Walker out. When
found she was lying on her face, and
the horse lying across her. She was
unconscious, but soon recovered con-
sciousness, and they carried her home.
She does not seem to be seriously hurt,
but is badly bruised.

Constable Yearly for the past week

Constable Yearly for the past week
has been on the war path, in search
of horse thieves and their stolen prop
erty, and in measure has been very
successful, The following from
Mondays Albany Times-U Union
tells the story;
ii. p. Yearley, first constable of
Londonderry, VT, Saturday, located in
this county rendezvous of probably
the most bold and daring gang of horse
thieves in the United States. Since
last year they have been operating in
Washington county, New York, in
Vermont and in New Hampshire. II
is known that there are at leRt six
persons in the gang, and for obvious
reasons no more will be stated ms to
their personal or whereabouts at pres.
ent.
The first theft traced to the gang
was that of fine animal valued at
over 5000. belonging to S. r. Acker-
man, of Orwell, VT, about twenty
five miles from Rutland. The horse
was stolen about one year ago.
The second was that of horse stolen
from G. II. Hawley, of West Airing
ton, VT, on the night of last Decora-
ton Day.
The third was stolen from James
Burke, of Greenwich, Washington
on the night Of Aug. 9TH last.
The fourth was stolen from P. X.
Clark on Bald Mountain near Green
wich. 1t was fine animal valued at
over 5000.
The fifth was stolen from Mrs. An
ME Lewis at Claremont, N. H.
Mr.. Yearly received information
that all the horses had been disposed of
in the country southwest of and near
This city. He came here last week and
after satisfying himself as to the truth
Of his information sent notice to each
and all of the persons mentioned re-
luesting their presence in this city. All
answered in person, arriving here Sat
urday afternoon. Conveyances were
and they started for the coun-
,ry. The horse stolen from Mr.. Ack-
srman was found in possession of Mr..
5toneburner near Reidsville, in this
county, to whom the thieves had sold
t. The one belonging to Mr.. Haw-
ey was found in possession of Mr..
Fred Conger, at Reidsville, who had
purchased it at bargain The animal
stolen from Mr. Burke was found
with David Albright at Delmar. The
horse from Mr.. Clark had been sold
TO Mr.. Cummings, but had been
kicked by another horse about two
weeks ago, and was injured so bad
hat he had to be killed. The horse
belonging to Mr.. Lewis of Clare
mont, N. H., was found with John
otoneburner at Reidsville.
Mr.. Yearly had all the animals
put together and the gathering start
ed back to this city. Some of the
horses had not received the best Of
care and all were placed in the Wake
ield stables on Maiden lane near
Eagle street. AS soon as they recu-
oerate they will be taken home by
heir owners. 1t is thought in short
line the thieves will. all be run down
md will be behind prison bars.
Mr.. Yearly returned Wednesday
md left again yesterday morning
looking after the thieves.
5e reports finding the horse stolen
rom Moses Barrett of Manchester,
n addition to the ones mentioned
above. 1t looks like 'sHerb" was the
light man in the right place. Horse
,hieves will take due notice.

When catarrh attacks person of scrof-

to become chronic. The only efiicacious
cure, therefore, is Ayers Sarsaparilla,
which expels scrofula from the system
and the catarrh soon follows suit, Local
treatment is only waste of time.

RICHMOND, Nov. 4.-The canvass for
the head of the ticket between tho
Democrats and the Populists has been a
hot one, both sides having had their
ablest speakers in the field. From q
careful review of the situation and from
interviews with prominent politicians
the indications are that the Democrats
will elect their State ticket by majority
of not lees than $4,000, and that they
will have largely over a two-thirds
majority in the legislature, which body
will elect two United States Senators, q
mem bers, eighteen circuit and the cor
poration judges.
The Populists, however, claim that
they will carry che State for Cooke and
his associates by majority ranging
from 10000 to 100000. They also assert
that they will elect seventy-one mem
bers OF the legislature. Should this
boast prevail it would give them a ma
jority OF one on joint ballot.
AS the Democrats have fifteen hold
over senators and the Populists in some
sections Of the State have no candidates,
the merit of their claim is not apparent
ioSuluB DemOcraG, VINO ID In posi-
tion to be thoroughly posted on the
political situation, asserts that there
are only eight senatorial districts that
are doubtful for that party.

He was attentively listened to for two
hours and a-half in his discussion of
the political issues of the day. and was
frequently interrupted by applause
he put himself on the platform of
bimetallism.
Hon. Mr.. Swanson discussed both
State and national matters, and begged
his hearers to be true to tho Democratic

BALTIMORE, Nov. 4.-The past week
in the Industrial world OF the Southern
States has seen as usual the organizs-
ton or projection OF q considerable
number OF industries of different kinds.
New municipal improvements, such as
water works, paving, sewers. etc., are
especially noticeable, no less than eight
cities having such improvements on
hand for imm ediate action.
With the repeal of the silver purchase
act, the prosperous times generally pre-
dicted by those favoring repeal viii be
anXiously looked for by the entire
country, and with the inc rease of conf.
dence OF the capitalists large invest
ments in the South will undoubtedly
follow.

In its issue of November 8, gives as
usual complete list of new plants
started or projected and old ones en-

He Has Been vindicated by His Constitu-
ents of Similar False implications.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES: THE
charges affecting my personal integrity
in the Populist organ in Richmond in
its issue of yesterday are false. Nearly
all OF them have been repeatedly made
by my enemies and as often refuted in
my oanvasses for Congress, and the
people OF my Congressional district
have six consecutive times stamped
them as false by nominating me by
acclamation and eleoting me by in
creased majorities.
The two new ones are as unfounded
as these which have been met and re-
futed. The object of publishing these
charges within five days OF the election
can we'll be understood and will be
condemned by every honorable man re-
CARELESS OF his party affiliations. The
people among whom lived when nv
business misfortunes befell me more
than quarter Of century ago, and
who know me best, and are perfec tly
familiar with the circumstances, sent
solid instructed delegations by over
whelming votes for me to the late State
Convention.

FLOYD COURT HOUSE. Nov. 4-Ham
w. Simmons and Wells Goodykoontz,
two young lawyers of this town, are
stumping the county in behalf of Re-
publcansm. They are speaking at
most every place in the county that
they can gather crowd. The Republi.
cans seem to be taking up the fight
with renewed vigor as though they
thought some hope for them still lin
gered. But the Republicans of Floyd can
never again hope to send man to the
legislature. Though Floyd Is as vet
Republican with the help OF the Demo-
Gratis Of Franklin Democratic repre-
sentative can be easily elected.
From reports, the forte of the Repub.
lican party lies in the Populists party,
and II they do not rescue the fallen
party of Republicans, they are lost for.
ever in this section Our best men
think that Floyd will soon vote an
overwhelming majority for Democratic
candidates. Though she may not do it
this election, she will in the near
future.
b. G. Howard, the Democratic candi-
date for senator, has partially canvassed
Carroll and Grayson, and reports every.
thing solid. He seems to think that
the fight will be an easy one.
p f. Shelton, Democratic candid tie
for representative, has also partially
canvassed Franklin and Floyd, and
seems to be pleased with the outlook.
Miss Eta Boyd has returned from
the Worlds Fair and seems to have
been well paid for the time, money, etc.
spent. Wingfield Scott, who accom-
panied her to Chicago, went from Chi
