AN OPPoRTuNITy.-The coming sale of
theGilbert House affords another opportunity
to provide for the hosts of people who every
summer endeavor to secure board in this
town. 1t should be purchased by some one
we'll able and willing to remodel and enlarge
it, or by company organized to do it. Make
a well-appointed mo dern hotel of it and add
to its capacity to any reasonable extent and
it can readily be filled and at profitable rates
How Is IT ?-More than two years ago an
electric light firm tried to get company to
organize here to put in a plant An estimate
OF the cost of lighting the streets, churches
and chief business houses, by coal oil, was
made and there seemed to be slight margin.
Now that the cost of the same plant has been
reduced at least 25 per cent and the cost OF
coal oil has advanced so per cent it would
seem that there ought to be good, wide
margin.
Mr. John Wollard owns one of the finest
stone quarries in the state. 1t is located
about two miles south west of town IN the
mountain. From it he takes stone ranging
from one half inch to twelve inches in thick
ness and he can fill an order tor stone of one
thickness Of any amount as the quarry is an
immense one and it is perfectly stratified and
the strata separate easily, IN fact they are
separate in the quarry Last week he sent
carload of sewer covering stone, one and
oue.half in. thick to Westminster. Builders
should inquire regarding his prices; they arc
very favorable.
Quite number of persons interested in the
formation of a Literary Society, met at the
home of Dr.. Kefauyer on Friday afternoon.
A temporary organization was effected and
a committee appointed to draft a constitu-
ton and by laws, also to arrange for program
ofstudy; much interestwas manifested which
it is hoped will continue and increase, when
the Society begins Its work in earnest The
next meeting will be held at Mr.. Matthias,
Friday, March Goth, 8 p. N. A cordial inyi-
talion is extended to any one, who may de-
sire to attend.

a manner which would satisfy that novels
many admirers and that of Mr.. Sothern, who
had the difficult task of impersonatng three
different persons who looked alike, and had

The Cost of MbitiOn.

That ambition costs heavily is evil
denced in the fact that there is today
but one living ex-President and Vice
President.
1t requires but glance at the faces
of ex- President Harrison and Mr..
Morton, the only living ex-Vice Presi-
dent, to discover in their firm lines
enormous staying powers. Two of the
three candidates for Vice President
with Cleveland are dead.
There is not defeated candidate for
President or Vice President still! living
except Messrs. Harrison and Reed.
The rest died not long after their de-
feata.
The stallwartness oil purpose Of Ben
jamin Harrison is phenomenal, and he
appears fresh and ready to try it again.
Mr.. Cleveland's s endurance is also re-
mark able, but on the basis of mortality
of his predecessors one would not be
apt to conclude that he is hankering g
for third term.-Boston Globe.

Secondhand DOOr-Plates.

You have possibly heard the
story about the man who bought a
second. hand door-plate with the
,Johnston" on it. That wasn't his
own name, but he got the door
plate very cheap, and he said he
m ght get married and perhaps he
would have a daughter who would
marry "a man named "Johnston"
and he could use the door-plate.
Ridiculous, wasn't it? And yet
some people buy their lite insur-
ance on principals just as absurd.
They buy life insurance that will
only be paid if they die in certain
ways defined by the company that
issued their policy. If they should
die in any other way, the compa-
ny won't pay the death claim.
The New York Life doesn't be-
lleve in such ridiculous idea.
When you take ont an Accumla-
ton Policy the claim will be
promptly paid, no matter what is
the manner OF your death.

Tariff Bill Passed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-The house
to-day responded to the appeal of Pres
ident Cleveland for legislation to pro-
tect the Treasury against the raids of
gold spectators and to restore the
gold reserve by passing what the repub-
lican majority is pleased to designate
a revenue measure, but which is in
fact q protective tariff, horizontally in
creasing tariff raties Is per cent over
the Wilson Bill, wiNs specially higher
rates on pet articles like wool and lum-
Der.
The opporatton of the bill, which is
limited to two and a half years, is de-
signed to raise $40 600, 900.
The vote was on party lines with but
few exceptions. The republicans all
voted for the bill, except Hartman of
Mon tana.
The final vote on the passage Of the
tariff bill was much confused, and indi-
yidual counts do not tally with official
records, The vote. as it will appear in
the Congressional record, shows the
ayes 227; nays 81,
The only djvergenic from party lines
was as follows: Baker Of Kansas, Bell
of Colorado, KEN of Nebraska and
Stroud of North Carolina, all populists,
voted against the bill.
Hall of Missouri aud Spencer of Mis-
sissippi (Dems,) voted for the bill, as
we'll as Skinner of North Carolina and
Howard of Alabama (Pops.) and New
lands of Nevada, silver.
Although there was the brilliant Sit
ting that usually accompanies field
day in the house, the debate lacked
much of the spirit and vim which gen
orally characterizes a partisan battle in
the lower branch of Congress. Even
the preliminary skirmish over the
adoption Of the rule, which ordinarialy
precipitates the iercest wrangling,
passed OFF quietly.
The debate itself was participated in
by the leaders on both sides. The re-
publicans contended the first necessity
for the treasury was a revenue to sup
ply the deficiency. Every speaker de
MED that it was republican protection
bill. TWAS, they claimed, an emergen-
cy revenue bin,
1twas significant that several, nota-
bly, Mr.. DaIzeIl, Mr.. Payne, Mr.. Hop
kins and Mr.. Grosvenor, dredicted the
passage of q genuine protection meas
ure as soon as the republicans gained
control cf the White House.
The democrats took the position that
there was no lack of revenue III the
treasury and that the passage of the
bill TO increase taxation would in no
wise help the 81 situation, nor furnish the
RELIEF desired by the President and Sec
retary Of the treasury.

PREMkDiTATE:D MURDER.
JIP AND jim GRIM DO AHoLlDAv JOB THAT
COST THEM THEIR LIVES.
Justice Swiftly Meted Out TO the Williams, Who Dar
ed to Shed innocent Blood.

The only incident that bas occurred
to mar the pleasure of the holiday sea-
son was chronicled early last Monday
morning, when Jip and jim Grim dis
turbed the quiet home of George Gal
loway, one mile northeast of town, by
dealing out death and destruction to
Mr.. Galloway's sheep. Before they
could be thwarted in their deadly work
three choice ewes were laid out with
their throats cut from here to here.
and it was with some difficulty that Mr..
Galloway pursuaded them to let up, at
all, as they had commenced with the
avowed intention of doing up the
whole flock.
However, he at last took them into
custody and ushered them off to town to
their master, &. B. Grim, who patient
ly heard Mr.. Galloway's tale OF woe.
Mr.. Grim at once passed the death
sentence upon Jip and jim, decreeing
that they be carried without the city
and there be shot until they gre dead,
dead.
While preparations for their execu-
ton were in progress, Jip and jim
made their escape and straightway
proceeded to Mr.. Galloway's pasture,
doubtless bent on having some more
fun. but they were intercepted on their
way and given the full penalty for
their crime.
Jip was one of the most popular
bird dogsin all this country and her
untimely death will be deeply deplor-
ed by the numerous Nimrods about
town who were in the habit of borrow
ing her, while young jim gave every
evidence of making a setter equal to
his mother
