Mr.. Laugdon and the Central Vermont.

Speaking of the late James r.. Lang
don and his connection with the Cen
trail Vermont railroad, the Boston Jour
nal in recent issue said:
The death of James r.. Langdon, vice
president of the Central Vermont Rail-
road company, removes the last OF tne
pioneers and original directors of the
Vermont Central Railroad company.
His decease also recalls the fact that
four other leading members of the first
board of directors of the Central Yer
mont and Consolidated railroads of
Vermont have passed away within four
wears. Two of the directors have died
within II months. 1t seems a singular
fatality that has removed within a
comparatively brief period five of the
most prominent directors and largest
owners of the Central Vermont rail
road.
Ex-Gov. J. Gregory Smith, who had
been at the head of the management
of the Central Vermont railroad sys-
tenn some 80 years, and since 1873 the
president of the company operating
the roads, died in November, 1891.
Hon. Worthington G. Smith, who
was early associated with Gov. Smith
as a trustee, manager, receiver and
director, and who had been president
of the Vermont and Canada Railroad
company for long time, passed away
in 1894.
Hon. w. H. H. Bingham of Stowe,
one of the original members of the
Central Vermont, died late in 1894.
A few months since Benjamin p.
Cheney joined the silent majority. Mr..
Cheney was one of the first trustees
and managers with Gov. Smith, and
when the Central Vermont and ConsOl-
idated railroad of Vermont were organ
lied, was made director in both COM
panies, with his associates above
named.
Mr.. Langdon's connection with the
Vermont Central railroad began nearly
so years ago, when he advanced $4,000
for the purpose of surveying proposed
route for the road He was instru-
mental in raising money in Boston to
build the line, and contributed to the
capital stock of the new company. He
was elected one of the directors of the
Vermont Central upon its organization,
and remained member OF the board
several years. 1t was not until 1873
that Mr.. Langdon again took an active
interest in the affairs of the old Yer
mont Central railroad. Upon the
organization of the Central Vermont
Railroad company he was made one of
the directors.
Mr.. Langdon was large holder of
the securities of the consolidated COM
panies, and stanch supporter of ex-
Gov. Smith in the management. He
was president Of the Lamoille Valley
railroad and also of the Montpelier and
White River railroad. He was strong
advocate of the construction of rail
road through the "Gulf," via Williams
town to Royalton, and was largely
interested in the extension of the Mont
pelier and White River railroad from
Montpelier to Williamstown. He had
held the office of first vice president of
the Central Vermont since it's organi-
cation, and although well advanced in
years he took quite an active part in
the affairs of the company, especially
in the supervision of its finances. Mr..
Langdon added strength to the board
of directors in financial circles.

A Quarter Not Ennnch.

She was trim and pretty stylish and
she was in hurry t. get down town.
She had lots Of things 10 buy, and it
was almost noon and she was worried.
There was hint Of frown on her
pretty brow as she hailed one Of the
green cars which trickle down Indiana
avenue and she hurriedly climbed into
an end seat. Then She began studying a
little list Of things she was 70 purchase.
There was embroidery, silk and phena-
cetin and to change the shoes and pay
the gas bill. While she was irving to
think Of something else she caught the
glimpse Of blue uniform with brass
buttons on the feotboard beside her,
and delving into her purse she held out
quarter and continued to scan the pa
per.
The expected touch Of the conductor 5
fingers did not come The quarter re-
manned thrust out into the air, and
when the pretty little woman looked up
in surprise, her glance fell on a big
policeman who was smiling down on
her. She drew in the quarter in hurry,
as bending downward toward her, the
copper said; "No, thank you, ma am.
l never take anything as small as that. :"

Peters was dead. 10 was evident to
Bradley that the enemy had been re-en-
forced, and he began TO fear for the
coming night, when, to his great JOY

Looping away.
