The Marlboro Election Case.

There was hearing at Marlboro Tues
day before Justice 5. II. Sherman of Brat
tlebOro in the disputed election case Z.
2. Adams, who was declared the represen-
tative-elect, was willing to have II. Nj.
Adams given a certificate of election, but
the presiding officer al the election First
Constable A. L. Hescock, refused TO issue
a certificate to him. At the hearing L. L.
Waterman appeared for II. NJ. Adams, but
l.. +. Adams was not present or repres-
ented by counsel. Dispositions of elections
officers were taken by Mr.. Sherman. and
these will be presented to the legislature
by II. NJ. Adams, and he will probably be
given his seat The friends Of the contest
ants claim an election on the second ballot.
when il was declared that 40 votes had
been cast for II. M. Adams, 46 for L. p.
Adams, with seven scattering. Ii appears
that OF the scattering votes TWO were for
Henry Whitney, properly marked; three
bore the name of L. i. Adams, but were
not checked; and two not checked had the
name of II. NJ. Adams. With these five
ballots thrown out II. NJ. A dams was elect
ed by one majority. The elections Off cc-s.
however, counted in Ih0Ce GoLes, and an
nounced no choice. The voting continued
until the fourth ballot, when there was a
majority for L. p. Adams.

SILVER wedding Anniversary.

The Prospect street home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Endlich was a scene OF fes-
tivity Saturday evening, when their 25th
wedding anniversary was celebrated in a
manner which was very delightful to the
100 to l2O guests who called TO extend COLI
gratulatiOns. The house was Handsomely
decorated with evergreen and golden rod,
and a prOtusion of flowers A pleasant
surprise came in the entering of 40 mem
Ders of Oasis encampment, l. O. O. F.. of
which MIR. Endlich has long been a promi-
nent member. d. Z. Tasker, on behalf of
the encampment, presented an elegant sill
yer ice pitcher and cup in fitting words.
MI Endlich' feelings would not permit of
his immediate response TO the presentation.
but his wife was equal to the occasion Re
fIeshments were served throughout the
evening, and many found so much salts
faction in the social pleasures that the
company did not disperse until about II
o'clock. AT the marriage of Mr.. and Mrs.
Endlich in the Episcopal church in this
village p years ago Carl HOllender and
Miss Katherine Bryant were best man and
bridemaid, and ii is interesting to note
that both were present Saturday evenin T.
Mr.. and Mrs. Endlich were the recipients
OF 40 gifts, representing large variety of
table ware and other articles, of solid sill
YER Two handsome vases were sent bv
the clerks in the Estey Organ companv's

Inc announcement made in the Boston
papers Tuesday that Principal Horne of
the Bratteboro High school had been
elected principal of the Lawrence, Mass.

the BrattlebOro community Priucipal

elected three weeks ago TO the principal
ship of the Worcester High school but

ABSOLUTELY PURE
The Tuneici Crow.

G. S. Maynard, of Newton, told tho
members of the Boston Scientific So
ciety that people who believe that the
crow cannot sing are in error. The
male bird, Maynard said, sings a beau.
tiful song during the nesting season.
but he prefers his mate as his only
listener. The crow has everything in
the way of singing apparatus that any
bird has. The singing is done, as was
shown in models, in the lower part of
the BIRDS trachea, the main features
being a small strnight bone across the
front of the tube, serving as q fixed
point of attachment for several mus
Giles, which by contraction and expsn-
sion tighten or relax the membranes.
There are two membranes, the lower
one being like a triangular drumhead,
with the bone as one border, the other
simply q band across the tube. which
operates precisely as boys whistle by
blowing upon port of q spear of grass
held between both thumbs.-RostoD

Guils Perched on Cedars.

The Captain of a steamer that plies
along the coast and that was passing
one of the rugged, lonely islands of
the Maine shore pointed to an enor-

branches of the cedars that cling to
the hard soil. ""There," said he,
