Capt. Stone is quoted as saying he
will be at the State Convention to
help force a financial plank into the
platform. Capt. Stone has always
been free bimetalist until the clos
ing days OF Congress, when he voted
for Cleveland's gold bond issue.
Since that bad break the public has
been left in doubt as to what the
Captains position is on the currency
question. 1t is probable that in de-
Gliding not to run for Governor he
was influenced in measure by this
great mistake of his public career,
and the difficulty Of explaining it to
the people.

The startlinp discovery has bee

The startling discovery has been
made that the mint at Carson City
has been putting too much alloy in
gold coins and issuing dollars worth
less than face value. Is it possible
that the poor deluded people cannot
get an "honest" dollar even when the
goldbugs assure them it is sound?
Is the government to be disgraced by
a SO cent dollars Forbid it ye gold

The Forum for April has for its
leader brilliant essay entitled "The
Real 'Quintessence of Socialism," by
Mr.. w. H. Mallock, the eminent Eng
lish student of Socialism, -one of the
most luminous expositions of the fall
lacies of sotillism that have ever ap-
peared in periodical literature. An
article on a kindred topic is by Mr..
Henry Holt, who concludes his series
of papers on THE Social Discomfort"
suggesting, among other remedies for
it's alienation, better and more uni
versal education-particularly civic
education-and the cultivation of al
truism.

II believe that gold and silver coin
are the money Of the constitution in

people-anterior to the constitution.
which the great organic law recog.
nized as quite independent OF its own
existence. No power has conferred
on Congress to declare either metal
should not be money. Congress has,
therefore, in ny judgment, no power
to demonetize either any more than to
demonetize both. II, therefore, silver
has been demonetized, am in favor
OF remonetizing it. If its coinage
has been prohibited l am in favor of
having it resumed. If it has been re-
stricted am in favor of having it en-
larged From a speech in the

Dr. Frank Rhea's novel, "Not
Wisely, but too WE'LL" romance
dealing with the Oliver Delaney
tragedy, was begun in the last issue
OF the Uniontown Telegram, of which
DIR. Rhea is editor. The real charac-
tiers are well-known from the names
used. Olive Abbey is Abbie Oliver,
Delaney Henry is Henry Delaney, and
other characters are but imperfectly
disguised. Sturgls is Dashtown and
Morganfield is called Monroeville.
The opening chapter at once interests
the reader and we predict that the
serial, written in thrilling style as it
is, will be widely read.

The disbursements including ordinary
repairs, have been $17,317.57, leaving in
the treasury $SOO64. The addition to
the hospital building in the summer of
1894 cost 81, 969.74 and was paid by a
special appropriation made by the last
legislature. The trustees present made
careful exa nination of the Home and
everything was found in good condition.
AS the following trustees were to arrive
on the sleeper, the election of officers
was postponed until Thursday morning:
Senator Redfield Proctor, Josiah GTout,
Gen. j. j. Estey, Capt. Frank Kentield
and H. X. Ide. During the year two va
cancies occurred on the board, that of
Franklin Fairbanks, deceased, and Col.
A. B. Franklin, who resigned. Upon
the invitation of Postmaster Robinson,
the Trustees accompanied by Superin-
tendent Coffey, took trip up the cleo
trio, railway to the Casino. They all ex-
pressed themselves as much pleased with
the trip, and the scenery. Following
the election OF officers the party went to
North Bennington where they had lunch
with General Mccullough.
At the adjourned meeting, Thursday
morning, the old board of officers was
re elected. LID. Hazen of st. Johns
bury was elected trustee vice Franklin
Fairbanks, deceased, and Cassius NJ.
Peck of Brookfeld vice A. b. Franklin.
1t is probable that the Trustees will rec
ommen1 the enlargement of the Home.
They are also considering the advisa-
biity of selling portion of tha farm for
village building lots. Superintendent
Coffee and wife, who have been at the
head of the institution so long, will con-
tinue in charge.

The River as a Sewer.

The trustees of the village met last
evening in connection with the Board of
Health: President Darling, Trustees
Holden, Pratt, Powers, Scott, Carrigan.
The pestilential nature of the Walloom-
sac River and its tributaries, the
streams, trunks and raceways, in the vii
lage limits were duly considered and dis
cussed at length. All the mill owners
who have been seen expressed them
selves willing 20 take their sewage out of
the streams. The Board of Health sub
mitted the results of its recent investiga-
tons relative to the volume of pollution,
and the trustees unanimously adopted
the following:
ReSolUed: That the discharge of sew
ers or the throwing, emptying or depos-
iting garbage or filth of any kind into
the Walloomsac River, or any of its trib-
utaries, including trunks aud raceways,
above the Mill street bridge in the viii
lage of Bennington, is hereby prohibited.
Not only is the river, proper, source
of menace to the public health, but the
Wooden Mills pond and the small stream
flowing west of South street, through

The PownaI Accident,

F. B. Shepley, claim agent for the
Fitchburg railroad, was in Williamstown
Mass, Tuesday and made an examina-
ton regarding the disaster at Pownal.
Edward White, one of the two who es-
capped, was examined. A party then
visited the scene of the accident.
Though the result of the examination is
not divulged, it is practically as pub
lished Tuesday. Prindle, the one who
jumped, is in a serious condition. He is
injured somewhat and is suffering from
nervous prostratlon.
A. N. Gelineau of North Adams has
secured the power of attorney to have
administrators appointed for the estates
of Oliver Daudelin aud Edward Chaput,
two of the young men who were killed.
This is being done preliminary to enter
ing suit against the Fitchburg railroad
company to recover damages. Mr.. Ge-
lineau has engaged three lawyers to
search the Vermont statutes bearing up
on the matter. He does not see fit to
make public the names of the lawyers
just yet nor to give out much of the de-
tails of the procedure.

The catamount Monument.

Among the subjects contemplated by
the Bennington Historical Society, early
in its history, was the erection of a
monument to mark the site of the Gaia
mount tavern and its renowned sign of
Revolutionary days. The project took
form in the seventies, and the pedestal
was placed in front of the sight in time
to be marker for the Centennial cele-
bration of 1877. Later, in 1891, the So
ciety caused to be engraved upon its
west face the inscription with which
our readers are so familiar. Originally
the catamount was to have been fin
ished by Bartlett the artist. native of
Dorset. but as he died several years ago,
the proposal not completed. Those
who attended the dedication of the Bat
lie Monument, in 1891, remember the
borrowed figure of catamount that
then adorned this pedestal, and will
readily imagine the appearance of the
structure when it shall have been COM
pleted. Within a few days, the Hon.
H. G. Root has passed a subscription to
many of our public-spirited citizens,
who have so generously responded that
the bronze figure of catamount to
grace the pedestal, is assured, and Mr..
Root is now absent on business connect
ed with this desirable subject. We
shall have more to say in a future issue.

Exciting Experience With a Snake

Mrs. Henry burlington, who lives
about mile from Pownal Centre on the
east road, has not given up the old Acad-
ian custom of 'calling the cattle home"
at evening, and doing the milking her
self, woman though she be. 1t is under
an apple tree near her house that the pa
tient cow is accustomed to take her
stand while Mrs. burlington each even
ing does the milking. AS usual one
night last week the milking was going
on, when Mrs. burlington, attracted by
some slight noise above her head,
glanced up. There, hanging from limb
directly above her, its small eyes wick
eddy cleaning and its forked tongue
darting from its mouth, was very large
notified snake, commonly known as a
checkered adder. 1t was not less than
four or four and one-half feet long, and
stealthily had crawled out on the limb
and had let itself down ready to drop on
its intended victim. 1t did not take Mrs.
burlington long to beat retreat, and
the vicious reptile then dropped TO the
it was to be met fully half way. Mrs.
burlington secured a shovel that was
close at hand and came back to settle
matters with his snakeship. The ugly
creature struck at her and reared itself,
throwing itself in coils, its flattened
head and open mouth making very un-
