number OF bright young women who
fill positions OF trust is evidence that
the general tendency is for girls to
be educated with the view OF taking
care of themselves. whether the fam
lily finances demand it or not, but
there are doubtless many cases
where the parents are crlmlnally re-
miss in their duties in this respect.
Never before was so much equipment
necessary for coping with the world,
and those who are denied the adVan-
tages OF a 6rst-rate education are
almost sure to have a bitter struggle
for a living. In the case referred to
the father had married second wife,
who il-treated the daughters, who
had never known what it was to
want for necessaries until they found
themselves destitute. 1t is the duty
of parents TO see above all things
that their children are well fitted for
earning their own livings whenever
the necessity arises.

THE ENFORCAMENT or la VS..

The way OF transgressors is hard.
They are finding the truth OF this in
New York just now, for one deter
mined official there is doing his duty
without fear or favor. Not
even a glass Of soda is allowed to be
sold on Sunday, and as for other
kinds of drinks, they are not! The
statutes prohibiting such sales have
long been openly violated and a
great cry was raised that it would
be impossible to enforce them. in
the face of the jeers and hindrances
OF men who failed to grasp the full
beauty of law and order, the new
police commissioner Roosevelt has
succeeded in demonstrating shat the
most inconvenient of laws can be
stringently enforced. He is insttu-
ting reforms OF all kinds in the police
department of the metropolis, and
bribery and corruption is to be put
down with strong hand. The
police of New York are already show
ing marked improvement in their
demeanor, and there seems to be
every reason to hope that the scan
dals which have disgraced that city
will sink out of sight under the new
regime. Commissioner Roosevelt
has faced more grizzle bears in the
far west and killed more big game
than any other man in New York
and has plenty of sand" to enforce
the laws in New York.

ELECTRIC RAIL WA VS..

The present season will see the
operation of five electric street rail-
ways in Vermont These roads have
an aggregate mileage of 80 miles,
and are operated by the trolley sys-
tenn. The Rutland street railroad
and the Burlington and Winooski
Street Railroad were built several
wears ago, and run by horse power
until last year, when they were
equipped for electric power.
The other three street railroads,
which are in process of construction,
were chartered by the Legislature in
1894, and are the Brattleboro street
railroad, the Bennington and Wood
ford street railroad and the Fort
Ethan Allen railroad. The former
road runs from Brattleboro to West
Brattleboro, distance of two miles,
with belt line in the village. 1t is
expected the line will be opened for
business this summer.
The new electric railroad between
Bennington and Woodford is about
four miles in length, and runs on the
roadbed of the old Bennington and
Glastonbury railroad, which was
built for frelghting lumber. The line
is fully equipped, and successful
trial trip was made over it this week.
1t runs to Camp Comfort" sum-
mer resort which lies halfway up
Woodtord Mountain. The grade Of
the road is quite heavy, and the ride
to the mountain station affords a
fine view of the country. The other
new street railroad built this seasan
is the Fort Ethan Allen line running
between Winoo>ki and Essex Juno.
ton via Fort Ethan Allen. This
road connects at Winooski with the
Burlington and Wnooski street rail-
road, and forms a continuous line
between Essex Junction and Burling-
ton, a distance OF eight miles. The
Fort Ethan Allen road was opened
tor passenger traffic this week. 1t
has been in operation to the military
post several weeks. = Col. c. S.

WHEN NEWS IS SCARCE.

1t is remarkable what strange
subjects come up for discussion in
times OF dearth in the news field
Among other matters of no impor-
tance which have been troubling the
New York Sun, the question of
whether pie should be conveyed to
the mouth with the fingers or fork
has been widely discussed. The ma
jority OF writers on this weightv
matter seem to prefer the hand
method, thus showing a survival of
masculine juvenile tastes, but the
disadvantages OF this style with
some kinds of pie are so manifest as
10 need no description. A fork is
good enough for most people when
pie is before them; soup of course, is
another story. Improvements in the
methods of eating asparagus would
be a fruitful theme, for at present
fashion DEGREES that it must be raised
to the mouth with the fingers, and
many are the trlbuatlons of the un-
expert in the process. Perhaps the
Sun could start reform in this d.
rection, during the dog days, while
people are not able to grasp deeper
subjects OF thought.

several trains Of coming delegates
showed that the first choice was for
Plymouth Rock, with second for
the Old North Church, where, as
they say, THE lights were hung
out"
Vermont has been well represented
at the convention, and the badges OF
the various societies OF the state have
been seen everywhere, The sections
in the hall at the Mechanics Build
ing which was assigned to the differ
ent states were in many cases decora-
ed or adorned with some thing
which was distinctive to that state,
Florida, for instance being hung
with Spanish moss. In the Vermont
section was shown a model of ma
pie sugar camp which attracted
great deal of attention. One OF the
Vermont men whom happened to
meet on the train was the Rev. q.
w. Patterson of East ST. ohnsbury,
who brought with him a delegation
OF nine from society which numbers
only twenty-three members. Anoth-
er Vermont minister who has been
here, and has taken a prominent
part in the meetings is Rev. G. W.
Morrow Of the Christian church at
Randolph. | heard Mr.. Morrow
conduct one of the evangelstic rallies
in the Union Mission rooms on Knee
land street at noon, one day. He
has very great ability for such work
as that, and it was inspiring t o lis
ten to him. These rallies, held dur
ing the middle of the day, in all parts
OF the city, on the wharves, the
street corners, ETC., have been a
great feature ofthe gathering. They
were in charge of some able speaker,
with such assistants as he might
need, and with him would be sent
each day sufficiently large party of
the visiting delegates to start the
meeting off with a swing. These
strangers were guided each day by
some one of the local members, as it
would have been almost impossible
for them otherwise, unused as they
were to the city, to have found their
way to the parts where they were
expected to 60. At this meeting in
the Kneeland street Mission, the
helpers were the Golden Rule Union
of Windsor and Orange counties in
Vermont.
Saturday evening the Vermont Wis
itors were given delightful recep-
ton at the Maverick Congrega ton
al church at East Boston, their
church headquarters, and in my let
ter next week, plan to send full
report OF this.

Rev Joseph Cook made few i'm
promptu remarks in Honolulu on
the Fourth OF July at the celebration
given by the American residents that
were quite unexpected. The rever-
end gentleman began his address by
sharply criticising Cleveland for his
Hawaiian policy. Minister Willis,
who presided at the meeting, broke
in at once and said it was not the
time or place for partisan speech,
and was greeted with loud applause.
Mr.. Cook declared he was not used
to either a strait.jacket or a gag, and
Willis retorted that the contracted
sentiment of q Boston environment
was not broad enough for an
American celebration in Hawaii"
The Boston clergyman left the hall
in disgust. The report further says
that Minister Willis was given an
ovation aiterward by those present
and is now the most popular man on
the islands.

AN INTERESTING LEC1URER X.

John Fiske, OF Harvard University,
is one OF the most noted writers and
interesting lecturers on history of
our day. Touch any topic or histor-
zeal character and he is iull of inior-
nation and imparts it with ease and
charm. There is nothing dry about
about him or his lectures. He holds
the attention, cultivated and uncul.
tivated alike. A year or two ago he
gave SIX lectures on different periods
OF American history in a city whose
population was chiefly operatives
In cotton mills. 1t was not believed
by some that, though the lectures
were tree, he would get more than a
select few to hear him. But after the
hrst night the City Hall was filed to
its utmost capacity. He took for
each lecture some central figure in
the period of which he was to speak
and grouped the events around him
so he treated OF Washington, .Jeffer-
son, Clay, Webster, etc. Next to
hearing him is to read his historic.
which are as interesting and vastly
more profitable than the trash tina,
is being deyoured by the millions to
day.

A GENEROUS ACT.

Ever since Queen Isabella Of Spain
raised money on her jewels that Col
umbus might cross the seas, the deed
has been regarded with admiration,
for a woman's jewels are very pre-
cious to her, 1t is quite coincidence
that Mrs. Leland Stanford should
now announce her intention Of selling
her famous jewels, variously valued
at from $1,00O,000 to $4,000, 1000,
for the benefit of Stanford Universi-
ty, for many of these ornaments were
purchased for her in Paris when the
valuables of Queen Isabella of Spain
were sold. There are few more
choice or valuable collections than
this OF Mrs. Stanford's to be found
even in the royal families of the old
world, and the motive which induces
her to part with them is worthy of
honor.
