Escaped With His Life.

Lightly the burglar moved from room to
room through the house. whose inmates,
wrapped in the blissful sleep that comes to
the weary breast after an evening spent at
an amateur concert, heard not his feathery
football. Borne to his quickened senses
from the sleeping chambers came the sound
or deep, regular breathing that seemed
mechanically to mark the flight Of time as
it moved on sluggish wing toward the great
beyond.
Passing noiselessly into large apart
ment, he turned his dark lantern about until
its pale rays fell upon rich dressing case,
on whose polished marble top were scat
tered in careless profusion the jewelry and
other personal adornments Of some strange
ly neglectful wearer
His hand closed eagerly on the costly
trinkets, and he was on the point of trans
ferring them to the capacious pocket Of his
overcoat when one of the slum berers moved
uneasily and in mufiied voice made the
remark:
Great Scott, Emily, thought had ex.
planned ir so you could understand it! Now,
If you won't interrupt me, I'll give you the
facts about this whole tariff business from
beginning to end"-
The jewelry fell from the nerveless grasp
OF the burglar. Gasping for breath, he stag
gered to the nearest window, jumped blind
ly through it, carrying the sash with him,
and fell upon the sloping roof OF the kitch-
en-, from which he rolled to the top Of the
coal shed and thence to the ground, alight-
ing in snowbank, and without stopping to
pick up his hat or his lantern he dashed
with breathless haste away from the prem
ises and vanished in the dark ness. He had
secured no booty, but he had escaped hor-
ror worse than death.-Chicago Tribune.

Any foreigner who intends writing his
impressions of the United States should
not fail to notice our statues and in the
case of the two erected Fourth of July In
New England he should certainly find
room to say something. At Newbury-
port the figure of Garrison in bronze was
uncovered, and at Bridgeport that o.
Barnum. The ordinary foreigner would
have mental struggle to comprehend
why the two cities should select such
different subjects for memory and honor.
but nevertheless any schoolboy could
explain the whole matter. though we
doubt if the foreigner would be wiser

Kief and Poltava Kondrati is a man
Of considerable power as speaker, but

Their principle tenet is that all men

been touched by the Spirit. The plain
est facts and statements in Scripture are
interpreted in mystical spirit. There
is also tendency to free love among
them, but as the last statement is vouch-

Apropos of the remarks before the
local Board of Trade by George H.
Cross on the condition of our roads,
as reported in last weeks GALE
DOMAIN, and the remarks and figures
presented by George P. Moore which
appear in this issue, we note timely
paper on the same subject by Budd
Doble, the famous horseman in the
current number of Good Roads.
Doble's point is that better time can
be made over a good road than over
a bad, whether the horse be attached
to a trotting sulkey or a farmers
cart. Time is money; good roads
save time, therefore they save money
and are always a good investment.

MONTPELIER, Nov. 1.-THE end of
the legislative worsted is dra wing
near, but that end will not be reach
ed by the 2Sth inst, without a great
amount of hustling. At the morn
ing session yesterday, Speaker
Stickney set the pace which both
house and senate must follow if all
the really important items of bust
ness are attended to carefully by
Thanksgiving Day. A good many
unimportant bills have, since our
last, met the fate which, nine times
out of ten, follows the report of a
committee that "the bill ought not
to pass" and the same lot will befall
many another bill yet in the hands
of committee
Final preparations are being made
as regards the more important
measures, and if the so called flood
wood can be gotten out of the way
in season, next week will be pretty
we'll occupied in handling questions
of vital interest to the state. The
committee on education are consider
ing the refusal of any additional
charters to would-be incorporated
school districts, and everybody in
terested is cited to appear at a hear
ing on this matter on Tuesday even
ing. Then the committee on cleo
lions have hearing on Friday even
ing to consider the various bills af-
fecting the ballot law; the judiciary
committee take up the insurance
bills on Friday evening, and the bill
to incorporate the Nicaragua Com
pany, in which some St. Johnsbury
gentlemen are interested, comes be-
fore the committee on corporations
tomorrow Thursday evening. 1t
is expected that all of these measures
will be debated to a greater or less
extent, and they, with the still pend
ing local option school bill and the
report on the revision of the statutes,
are looked upon as the important
things of the session.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.

The bill before the legislature hav-
ing for its purpose the placing of
some restrictions on dispensing
druggists is, we understand, fashioned
after the Massachusetts law. We are
not prepared to say whether this is
the best thing in its way for Yer
mont, but certain it is that the time
has come for some restrictive legisla.

islatures have always approached
this subject rather gingerly. al
together too much so, it seems to US.

MIR. REED.

The splendid republican victory
brings with it the return of republi-
can control in the next House, and
the election Of Congressman Reed as
Speaker is assured. Indeed, he will
have no other republican competitor,
and the party will begin their con-
gressional labors in December, 1894,
without any speakership fight on
their hands, but with the whole par
ty united. Ex-Speaker Reed will
bring to the place perfect familiarity
with its manifold and arduous du-
ties, and the business of that con-
gress will be speedily and splendidly
despatched.
Mr.. Reeds prominence as speaker
of the ffty-fourth Congress will make
him strong presidential candidate
for 1896, when the republicans will
sweep the country as magni6cently
as they did last week. He is the
broadest man il the republican par
ty. and therefore the strongest. His
long congressional career has made
him familiar with all the country's
problems and it's needs.
New England ought to have SOL
id delegation for Mr.. Reed in the
next national convention, and the
Maine statesman will also have the
support of many in the Eastern,
Southern and Western states. For
president in 1896, Thomas B. Reed,
of Maine

THE ELECTIONS.

The republican victory is SO sweep
ing that the democrats cannot ex-
plain it. Chairman Wilson, he of
tariff bill fame, lays it to the hard
times, but fails to add that his tariff
bill helped to make the hard times.
One lays it to Cleveland, another to
the income tax and a third to the
shiftlessness Of the last congress. Al
Of these causes hell ed bring the vic
tory which even went below Ma
sons and Dixon's line. 1t has been
the greatest political revolution
since 1870 and the prospects for
another victory in 1896 are very
bright. But the republicans must
not think that they routed their OPP
ponents forever. The democrats
have not caught their second wind,
but before the next national election
they will be in fighting trim for
another contest. The new tariff bill,
with its odious income tax, the gener-
alhard times and the utter distrust OF
the dem ocratic party brought about
this great victory. If the republican
party makes good use of its vic
tory there is no question but what
history will repeat itself in 1896.
