Man has never seen the inside of some of
the Egyptian pyramids since they were
first built, so far as known.
1t is told, for a sober fact, that the name
of a new post-ofiice in Virginia is Purga-

The New York Sun says that the people
of Dover, n. H., used more than five tons
of snuff last year-the habit of snuff-dip-
ping having been brought there by a SOL
dier at the close of the war. This is prob
ably base libel on the 1900 people of
this little city.
Frank and Dwight Warner and Fred
and Henry Guyott, all Colchester young
men, were hunting on the WinOoski river
Saturday, when Henry Guyott attempted
to draw his gun across the seats. The
hammer caught on the seat and the wea-
pom was discharged, the contents entering
the young mans breast, causing death in
a few hours.
Henry Bigelow Williams of Boston,
who went through bankruptcy iE 1873,
owing at the time nearly 100000, recent
ly paid every dollar of his indebtedness
from which he was released by the court
oceedings-together with six per cent in

the interest, which amounted to almost as

The worst marine disaster of the year is
reported in dispatches from Sidney, New
South Wales. The steamer Wararapa
struck rocks on Great Barrier island Sun
day night. All of the passengers were in
bed. As soon as possible life boats were
launched, but the sea was so rough that
several boats capsized. Some succeeded in
getting ashore by means of lines which
were sent to the mainland attached to a
raft Many of the passengers were swept
overheard by the waves. The captain and
% of his crew and Ill passengers were
drowned. The survivors remained upon
the rocks 30 hours before they were discov-

commissioners on Tuberculosis.

The bill introduced by Mr.. Hines, to
deal with the question of tuberculosis, is
entitled, "An act to establish board of
commissioners to be known as commits
sioners on tuberculosis" This board the
governor is to appoint, and their duties
are to be to investigate carefully the eX-
tent to which tuberculosis prevails among
the live stock of the state, its cause, and
best means of prevention and cure. This
commission is to make, subject to the gov
ernors approval, such rules and regula-
lations as they believe will prevent the oc-
currence and spread of the disease. 1t is
to report progress to the governor every
three months, and make an annual report
for general distribution. The governor
may authorize the expenditure of sum
not exceeding $1,000 in this work. If a
person refuses to comply with any rule es-
tablished the commission may apply by pc
tition to judge of the supreme court,
setting forth the facts, and If the judge
deems the rule wise and just, and its viola
ton proved, he may enforce it by mandate
as in chancery proceedings, and refusal to
comply shall constitute contempt of court.
This bill, which is of Brattleboro origin,
seems to us an excellent measure for
meeting the pressing question of the prev
alence and spread of tuberculosis. The re-
suit of its enactment would be to put the
whole subject into the hands of experts,
while by providing that the governor shall
approve the regulations established, the
purpose is to prevent the exercise of arbi-
trary or hurtful power. The authority of
the commission and the rights of the PEG.
pie are both carefully protected In the sec
ton referring any case in dispute to the
decision of supreme court judge. This
bill ought at least to help the legislature to
reach some wise and effective enactment.

About the GoodnIe sisters.

DR.. Charles Eastman, the educated In
dian, and his wife elaine Goodale) are
living in st. Paul, Mimi, which has been
their home for some Is months. "Soon
after taking up their residence in that city,"
says the Chicago Herald, CDR. Eastman
was requested to prepare articles for ST.
Nicholas, Youths Companion and other
publications, which he promptly did, find
ing his literary work pleasant as well as
profitable. Soon after his arrival in St.
Paul Dr. Eastman was appointed secretary
of the Young Mems Christian association
of the Northwest, at a salary of $1,000 a
year. This position he still holds. He
also devotes such leisure as the duties of
his practice afford him to lecture to and
visit among the Indians. The Eastmans
find their home life in St. Paul delightful.
DR.. Eastman practice has increased stead
lily. He is a hard student, devoted hus-
band, proud father and worthy citizen. 1t
may be interesting TO mention that Miss
Dora Reade Goodale, the younger and
equally talented sister of Elaine, who still

gagged to be married to Prof. Thomas San

nenth OF the Crnr Of Russia.

The long illness of the Gar of Russia,
Emperor Alexander Ill, ended in his
death yesterday afternoon. The Gar was
born in 1915, and was the second son of
Alexander H. The death of his elder
brother Nicholas made him heir to the
throne, which he assembled in March, 1881,
on the assassination of his father. He
was a man of tremendous physique, six
feet three inches high, weighing 25O
pounds, and possessed of herculean
strength. He was man of no special
talent, but had honesty of purpose and a
brave heart without the originality of
character which enabled him to rise above
the innuencesto of his court and become a
factor for the relief and uplifting of his
people.

Mr.. Ladd today introduced bill incor-
porating the city of Montpelier. At a
town meeting held there two or three
weeks ago to consider the matter senti-
ment was about evenly divided, and the
meeting was so turbulent in character as to
suggest the requirement already of the
ward-room political methods of the large
cities. Mr.. Currier of Barre, hoping to
go Montpelier one better, also introduced a
bill making Barre into city and a town.
The capitol has been well filled several
times lately with pupils and their teachers
