WESTMORELAND.

Walter A. Pierce of this place was pros
ecuted before Judge Holmes Wednesday
morning by Joseph Madden of the Humane
society on the charge of cruelty to horse.
Mr.. Pierce was defended by Hon. John T.
Abbott. The testimony adduced by the
prosecution was that the horse was old and
comparatively worthless; but no abuse was
shown, and it was brought out very plainly
that only the very lightest work was re-
CURED of the animal. Joseph Haley, the
complaining witness, representative of
the Humane Society, accompanied by an
other young man named Alfred Hender-
son, went to Mr.. Pierce Tuesday evening,
February /, and notified him that there was
some complaint about the horse As Pierce
had been intending to kill the animal very
shortly anyway, he took her out the next
morning and shot her. The other witnesses
for the prosecution were E. L. Glazier,
Mrs. E. 0. Wheeler, George Patten, and
Rev. L. E. Williams, E. Boswell and the
defendant testified on the other side. The
court did not hesitate to dismiss the case,
without the formality of extended argu-
ment, no satisfactory evidence of cruely of
any kind having been brought forward

Young Republicans at Montpelier.

Lmcoln's birthday was celebrated at
Montpelier Wednesday by the Young
Mems Republican club in royal style. The
attendance was large and all the gatherings
manifested much enthusiasm. OF course
Stickney Of Ludlow and Grout of Derby
were there.
Shortly before o'clock in the afternoon
the procession formed in front of the Payil-
ion, headed by the Montpelier Military
band, and marched 400 strong to the opera
house, where the afternoon exercises were
held. The rear of the stage was well filled
with ladies and on the platform were Gov.
Woodbury., Lieut.. Mansur, Gen. O.
o. Howard, ii. w. Bailey, Henry Ballard
OF Burlington George M. Powers, presi-
dent OF the club, and Congressman Russell
|'of Connecticut, the speaker of the after
noon. On the left Of the stage a life-size
portrait Of Abraham Lincoln was grace
fully draped with the national colors.
The speakers of the afternoon were Con-
gresham Russell of Connecticut and Cen
eral Howard of Burlington.
About 500 sat down to the banquet in
the evening. Among other speakers was
Gov. U. A. Woodbury.. He said Il
come to you tonight with the badge of
age on my head, but with the badge of
youth in my heart. always like to asso-
ciate with those younger than myself, both
male and female, which illustrates the
maxim that there is no fool like an old fool.
My advice to the young men of Vermont is
to engage in politics, but always in repub-
lican politics. You are descended from
men who from 1861 to 1865 did honorable
service in the war of the rebellion. The
young men Of Vermont to-day are the equal
OF any in the country. They have that in
dependence Of thought and that integrity
that is always characteristic of the people
of Vermont, and we older ones depend on
them to relieve us Of office bearing. To
their energy we look loraour large MAORI
ties in the future. The republication of
Vermont is the star that never sets With
either one Of the gentlemen named as a
standard bearer we may be sure of rolling
up our old-time majority"

TOBACCO HEART"
HOW 1T COMES AND WHAT 1T
is. HOW A MAN CAN USE
TOBACCO SAFELY.

Any man who smokes to excess
knows what a"tobacco heart" is. 1t ia
weak nervous action of that organ
alternated with occasional palpitation
cold hands and feet ESPECIALLY the lat
teri, dimness of vision, specks before
the eyes, dizziness of the brain, shortness
of breath, dyspepsia, and taste in the
mouth mornings, and disordered bowels.
These are few of the symp-
toms, and they are all due to the poisons
of tobacco. Every man who uses to-
bacco has every now and then, days
hen cigar or pipe doesn't taste
good" and is thrown away in disgust.
My stomach is out of order" or, II
must be bilious" is the usual thought.
1t is neither. Your system is sur
charged with the poison.
Your kidneys find themselves unable
to throw off the Nicotine in the Urine.
Consequently every organ and tissue in
the body is clogged aud poisoned.
Anything that will sci your Kidneys
to acting promptly and thoroughly
will quickly relieve you.
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
will do this and do it naturally and
harmles-ly. And they will do more
than that. The poison of tobacco, even
when not used to excess renders the
Kidneys sluggish, and every organ in
the body feels the result.
Other poisons that should be thrown
out are not thrown out.
Hence the stomach, brain, heart, eve
and other symptoms.
BY using DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kid
neys Pills, not only Nicotine but every
other poison will beIapidly and regu-
larry carried out of the body.
You can than use tobacco and not
feel its bad effects. A cigar can never
then be said to mot taste good"
And your general health will be
perfect.
DIR. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
are endorsed by the bsst of Physicians
and sold by druggists at 80 cents. A
valuable book mailed free.

If asked the question Have you got
a stomach?" it would be safe on general
principles, to answer yes" But, il
you are sure of it; that is, if you ever
feel any distress after eating or any
pains Of whatever description in the
region of the stomach, you have got
something more than an ordinary stom-
sch; in other words, you have got dis
eased stomach. The stomach is a pow
erful muscle, and the proper remedy for
a tired muscle, is rest. Try the Shaker
Digestive Cordial, for this product not
only contains digested food, which will
nourish the system without any work
ON the part of the diseased organs, but
it aids the digestion of other foods as
well. You can test its value in your
case for the trifliDg sum of 10 cents.

AN OPPORTUNITY.
Springfield Willing to Meet Bellows Falls
Half Way on a Survey.

Half Way on Survey.
We have received the following COM
munication:
Editor of the TINES:
Although your paper exhibits a COM
mendable spirit Of liberality as far as
printers ink can go, towards our efforts to
secure better railroad facilities tor Spring
field. Yet we do not have very much faith
in Bellows Falls generosity when it comes
to more substantial aid, that is to say,
solid cash. If the people of your town are
kindly disposed toward this enterprise we
would suggest very substantial and
mutually beneficial way to show it.
Last December Adna Brown and w. Fl.
H. Slack engaged competent engineers to
make good working survey and compute
the expense for building road from
Springfield to Charleslown. But before
the desire of Bellows Falls people can be
considered Of having the proposed line con
tinued down on the west side of the river
to their town, there will have to be work.
ing survey made from the mouth of Will
liams river to the place where the proposed
line would meet the Brown and Slack sur
vey near the residence of Samuel Brown, a
distance of about SIX miles.
Now what we propose is this, that we
will send one or more officials Of the sub
scribed company to Bellows Falls, who
with committee OF interested citizens from
that town shall canvass among its business
men to see if sufficient money can be raised
there to defray the expense of making a
gooc working survey over the six miles not
already surveyed. In this way it can soon
be determined what the true sentiment Of
Bellows Falls people is toward this line.
ours respectfully,
Blackdtiver Railroad Co.,
By its clerk.
This is a practical and sensible way Of
finding out just how the people of Bellows
Falls stand on this matter. There are a
great many here, and among the best citi-
zens of the place, who would gladly well
come the construction of the Springfield
road to this point. Some have expressed
the opinion that the enterprise would be
assisted financially. We are thoroughly O
the belief that the road would be benefit
to both places and as such should receive
support at both ends of the line but a.
Springfield would be benefited much NOR
than this place, it should bear the expense
in proportion.
