Savage Assault.

Moses Tacy was brought up in Bur.
lington city court Friday morning on
a charge of assaulting James Gates
of st. George on New Years day. Mr..
Gates, who is postmaster st. George,
was spending the day with his mother
at Mallett Bay. In the afternoon,
while lie was on the way to the barn
where he kept his horse, so the story
goes, he heard somebody approach
ing him from behind and Just as he
turned, the person, who was Tacy,
struck Gates terrible blow in the
face with hoe. The blade struck
the right side of his nose, cut into the
cheek bone, split open his lip and
laid bare the teeth. The chm was
also cut through to the bone. The
blow was so heavy that the hoe glanced
down and penetrated through all Of
Mr.. Gates clothing, making a severe
wound on his breast. Tacy was ar
rested Thursday. Mr.. Gates cannot
account for the affair. He says he
does not even know Tacy. The only
motive Tacy could have had in strik-
ing Gates must have been merely a
desire to edo" somebody, prompted
by recent debauch. Tacy, on the
charge of assault with intent to kill,
waived examination and his bail was
fixed at 81 900.

A Notable Book.

A treat, rich and rare, lis found in book
published by Houghton, Miffiin & Co. ,en-
titled "Letters Of Celia Thaxter." This
collection OF letters is made by Mrs. An.
ME Fields and Miss Rose Lamb, and q
work OF love it must have been to them for
they were reckoned by Mrs. Thaxter as
among her choicest friends. Much OF q
biographical nature is scattered here and
there through ne book, as well as in Mrs.
Thaxter's letters. and whoever has known
and loved Mrs. Tnaxter through her writ
ings-and who tas not?-Sill finish this
book with SENSE OF showing her person
ally, and Of having been envelOped BY the
very atmosphere OF her home at tine Isle Of
Shoals. The very best OF taste is shown in
the plain dark green covers Of the book, in
the paper and print, and nothing is need
ed to give the book an enviable destinc-
ton among books. Price, $3.50.
The same publishers have just issued "a
Singular Life" by Elizabeth Stuart
Phelps Ward. This Is an intensely writ
ten novel showing the remarkable power
of Mrs. Wards talent, as much, and to
our thinking even more, than in any other
OF her long stories. Life means SO much to
the hero and he is in such dead earnest
one looks upon him with the greatest ad-
miration, but we see the ssunny side OF
life" here with only a few sunlit moments,
preceding sorrowful ending. We can
not help hoping and indeed believing that
1t is an extreme case set before US. 1t is at
tractively bound. Price, $1.22.

Vermont conner Mines.

The prospects are favorable for the
revival Of the copper mining industry
in Vermont state, which only a few
years ago was a fourishing and pay
ing industry.
The opening up Of the exceptionally
rich mines in the West and the ease
with which the ores could be smelted,
have for some time past diverted atten-
ton Of miners and capitalists from all
Vermont mines; but now that the
mines that produced eighty and nine
ty per cent OF copper are now able to
produce, like our Vermont mines on
ly seven per cent ofcopper, attention
is once more directed to Vermont
Owing to the newer methods Of min
ing the mines West are now paying
larger dividends than they formerly
did, when the deposits were much
richer. Within the last few years the
methods ofcopper smelling have been
greatly improved, reducing the cost Of
smelling nearly ONE half.
An item in favor of the Vermont
mines notwithstanding the fact that
they are situated few miles from the
railroad this is more than overcome
by their nearness to the copper market.
This we can readily see when we stop
to consider that copper is shipped
from Wyoming, Montana and Colo
RADIO to New York, consuming more
than week in transportation, while
we are only few hours ride from
the same market. In the saving Of
freight rates alone the Vermont mines
have big advantage over their West
ern competitors.
Recent explorations have demon
stlated the fact, beyond d doubt, that
larger and richer ore bodies exist than
have ever been worked. One Of the
best-known mining engineers in this
country has recently written concern
ing the mines in Vershire: "If the Ely
mines lived at all with all the draw
backs under which they labored and un
der the awkward and expensive smelt-
ing process, it should pay very large
ly with ample capital, thorough un-
development and modern
methods"

barinent without Hearing.
| M. II. Alexander, a young lawye
Of Burlington, was arrested on TIN
charge Of embezzlemcnt Friday ant
lodged in Jail Rumors to this etfec
have been heard fora long time bul
the sensation eliminated in the arrest
At the last session of the supreme
court a committee, consisting OF Messrs
John Young Of Newport, ex-Gov. Dill.
bingham and Col. A. A. Hall of st.
Adams, was appointed to investigate
the charges and make report. The
hearing was to have been held last
week but Alexander filed a stipu-
lation consenting to his disbarment
and the hearing was accordingly un-
necessary. The charges of States
Attorney Brown are in substance as
follows:
In February, 1893, r. Townsend, in
whose family Mrs. Alexander lived
before her marriage, left in Alexan-
der's hands for collection two notes,
one for $500 and the other for 5000,
signed by unknown parties, but guar
anteed by the Vermont Investment
company. On July l, 1893, Alexan-
der collected Of the company the notes,
and without Townsend's consent APP
propriated them to his own use. Town
send on Feb. Ii, 1893, also left. in AL
exander's hands notes against parties
In Essex, Jericho and Burlington, on
which he collected 1892, all of which,
excepting 5000, he retained. On Aug
ust 80, 1898, at Chicago, Townsend
delivered to Alexander a deposit cer-
tiflcate for $1,000 issued by the Bur-
lington Trust company,it being agreed
that Alexander should draw $500 as a
loan and the balance he should draw
in gold and deposit it for Townsend
in his vault in the Trust company.
Sept. 81, 1898, Alexander drew the
sum Of 81, 234.4l, but did not place
any sum to Townsend's credit.
The remaining seven charges are of
a similar nature. He stated the amount
involved is something like "a, 900.
The Vermont Mutual Fire Insur-
ance company has also $40O charged
TO Alexander, which he collected for
them while he was its agent at Jer-
icho, before going to Burlington some
three years ago.

HOW TO PREVENT PNEUMONIA.

At this time of the year a cold is
very easily contracted, and if left to
run its course. without the aid of some
reliable cough medicine is liable to re-
suit in that dread disease, pneumonia.
We know of no better remedy to cure
cough or cold than Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. We have used it quite
extensively, and it has always given
entire satisfaction.-Ola Ind. Ter.
Chief.
This is the only remedy that is
known to be a certain preventive of
pneumonia. Among the many thous-
ands who have used it for colds and la
grippe, we have never yet learned of a
single case having resulted in pneu-
monia. Persons who have weak lungs
or have reason to fear an attack of
pneumonia, should keep the remedy at
hand. For sale by all Druggists and
