our gates who perseveres is certain te

complexion; to experience rare enjoy
ment in doing nothing or everything
except deep sea work, and to go home
with a storage battery fully recharged
with ozone. One ticket admits to the
combined shows and all who desire
can remain to witness Vermont's au-

porters for the New York Herald,
came to st. Adams, June oath,

The rear of the Connecticut River
summer drive OF logs,
OF thirty million feet,
reached Bellows Falls last week.
About two-thirds have already
passed the gorges. The water has
been so low at times during the past
month that work had to be suspended,
out it is in good condition now. Sew
men and 80 horses are EN-
,loyed. The head Of the drive Isl
icing doomed at Turner's Falls and
iolyoke. Two more drives are ready
o be let into the Connecticut. They
IRE owned by the Fall Mountain Paper
company at Bellows Falls. One of
hem is from White River and the
'ther is from Willis OF Amoonusuc.
There is less aggregate of lumber by
lalf this year going down this river.
Bellows Falls is having a lively ex-
,erience, Judging from the follow
ng from the Brattleboro Reformer:
The use OF dynamite in the starting
# log jams at the Falls under the
ridge has got to be very dangerous
or teams and pedestrians travelling
n that locality, and only few days
90, when blasting was being done
rom the channel, a stone was hurled
Trough second-story window of the
all Mountain House quarter of
nile away. A lady had just left the
where she was engaged in
ewing, only a moment before, to get
ONE needed article on the other side
t the room, and she thus escaped |
that might have proved fatal in
nry. Something ought to be done to
lake the river men exercise more
are in the use Of this deadly explo-
ve.'
Aside from its large receipts Of calf
xins, Hyde Park station receives
'equently large consignmcnts of
eight, but not until last Wednesday
as it received carload of Alaska
,lmon. The car was loaded with
ne hundred barrels of ALASKA Pine
Each barrel contained 200
ounds of this fish, which was packed
/ Alaska, sent by boat to Seattle and
renee here by rail, via the Canadian
acific. The freight bill called for
293, no small amount. The fish was
unsigned to r. M. Coles of Albany,
t., who is wholesaling it to mer-
lants throughout this section. 1t is
ronounced fine fish and Mr.. Cowles
lys he sells at SO low a price that
lerchants can retail it considerably
reaper than they do the fish they

eight bill, while somewhat large, is
exceeded by some Of the
llfskin bills. The largest freight bill,
e believe, ever paid here was one of
yer 500 on a carload of skins from
enver, Col. News and Citizen.
