DARTMOUTH NOTES.

Dartmouth college opened Jan. 8, and all
the boys from Windham county are back
except Ernest Clark of West Brattleboro.
The college has purchased part of the es-
tate joining the place where Daniel Webs
ter lived while in college, and will open up
a new street to be called Webster avenue.
The Rufus Choate place opposite the
Webster place and the rest of the land will
be occupied by residences of professors
and chapter houses of the fraternities. The
Phi Delta Theta, to which most of the BOYS
from near Brattleboro belong, was first to
secure choice of these lots.

II. w. Leach,s Buildings Burned.

Fire broke out Thursday morning abou.
2 o'clock in the back part of the barn of
Herbert w. Leach and at o'clock his
buildings had been all swept away. The
buildings consisted of house, L, barn,
horse barn and tobacco barn. Nearly all
the household furniture was lost, only
that in the two front rooms being saved.
The live stock was got out with the ex-
ception of two hogs, which were burned.
Two horses got badly cut in barbed wire
fence There was an insurance of $4,000
on the buildings. The crop from two acres
of tobacco was burned, with all the farm
ing tools. The origin of the fire is not
known. 1t would have been a good place
to try a fire-extinguisher, but perhaps
they were frozen up.

Cuban Rebels Near Havana,

The Cuban rebel force under Maxine
Gomez attacked the town of Bejucal, only
10 miles south of Havana Tuesday. but
were repulsed by the government troops.
Before they retired the insurgents set fire
to several houses on the outskirts of the
town. They also set fire to the railway
station, but the flames were extingulshed.
A passenger train was destroyed.
Owing TO the disturbed condition of the
country through which the railways pass
and the danger OF attack by the insurgents,
no trains are being despatched from Ha-
vana in any direction.

A Refuge and a strength.

He who never connects God with his
daily life knows nothing of the spiritual
meanings and uses of life; nothing of the
calm, strong patience with which ills may
be endured; of the gentle, tender comfort
which the Fathers love can minister; of
the blessed rest to be realized in His for
giving love, His tender fatherhood, of the
deep, peaceful sense of the Infinite One
ever bear, a refuge and strength.-Arch-
deacon Fdrrdr.

Death ofDencon Stafford.

The death of Dea. r. S. Stafford occurred
early Sunday morning. His age was II
years. He was the son of DR.. Plinv SAT-
ford, and was born in the house where c.
H. Rideout now lives. His days from
youth to age were spent in Westminster.
He was man of fine presence, and was
possessed of decided opinions which he
was not afraid to express for the interest of
a neighbor. He became a member of the
church in 1866 and was chosen deacon in
1869. He had held various positions in
Sunday school work. His interest in the
church was maintained to the last, it being
only on Thursday evening of last week
that he sent word to have his name
dropped from the list of trustees, knowing
that his work was done and that he was
only waiting for the end. For some "a
years previous to 1888 he was a merchant,
keeping store where b. F. Sleeper now is.
He represented the town in the legislature
in the years 1860, 1872 and 1876, and was
town treasurer for a long term of years.
He was man of strict integrity and en-
joyed the respect of all. Since the sale of
his store in 1883 Dea Stafford has spent
every winter in Florida, until the present
one, when he was unable to 90. He
leaves one daughter, Mrs. John d. Wiley
of Detroit, Mich, and one sister, Mrs. b.
F. Aldrich of Springfield, this state. His
vile, who was Miss Mary Wilder of this
place, died in the spring of 1888
Miss Cora Chase spent Saturday and
Sunday in Keene.
Mark r. Keyes has been housed for two
weeks with the grip.
Mrs. Seymour Fem is slowly recovering
from an attack of erysipelas.
Mrs. c. P. Whitney has been quite i'll
this week, threatened with pneumonia.
Miss Susie Leach went to Holyoke,
Mass, last Saturday to visit her niece,
Mrs. viii Wright.
John d. Wiley'of Detroit, Mich, is here
this week on account of the death of his
father-in-law, Dea. r. S. Stafford. Mr..
and Mrs. Haynes of Maynard, Mass, were
here Wednesday to attend the funeral, Dea.
Stafford being brother-in-law of Mr..
Haynes.
Mrs. A. II. Farnum is critically ill and
DIR. Holton was called yesterday in coun-
sci on her case. Mrs. Farnum is the Young
woman whom we mentioned as being
picked out of the brook at the ice pond in
an unconscious condition on Saturday.
Jan. 4. 1t was so cold her clothes were
frozen up to her shoulders and she was
obliged to walk some distance to her home.
She was apparently all right and attended
church as usual the next day and was
about as usual uutil the next Thursday,
when her serious illness began.

Their True Colors.

The change of base at this late dav In

OF Illinois and ex-Congressman Cooper of
Indiana car fairly be attributable to hut
one thing. and that thing the throwing of
Of all disguise by Mr.. Bryan and Gov. Alt
geld and the appeal direct by them to men
who are ready for revolution. Mr. Bryaa's
utterances. particularly, have of late been
marked by an extreme tone. He has en-
deavored for weeks past to array the moor
against the rich, and in every way TO To-
ment trouble of the most dangerous kind.
He publicly urges laboring men 10 a course
which, If adopted. would degrade them in
their own eyes, and finding that the Union
veterans of the late war are against him
he publicly sneers at them. Such cam
paignins on the part of a presidential can
didate must be startling revelation to
many men who at the outset were not I'm
friendly to Mr.. Bryan.
Gov Atgeid's deliverances are pitched in
the same key. He is dreaming and talk
ing of revolution. He travels all the way
TO New York to try and put a bit of life
into a hopeless campaign wholly IN the
hands of the most disrcputable men in the
town. The worst element Of Tanmany Hal

Is silver's main support In the greatest
state in the Union.
There must be many men-friends of sill
yer, and In sympathy may be with other
features of the Chicago platform-who In
their hearts repudiate the low plane ipon
which the democratic campaign has fallen.
Neither Mr.. Bryan nor Gov. Altgeld any
longer essays to argue the questions before
the country. The one busies himself with
reading garbled extracts from speeches de-
livered by public men many years ago, and
selects them to suit his partisan purposes.
Mr.. McKinley's words of friendship for
silver are presented, but the advocacy of
the gold standard twenty years ago by Sen
ators Jones and Stewart Of Nevada is ig-
nored. Mr.. Bryan wants the people to be-
lieve that the only change of opinion on
the money question has taken place among
those now supporting sound money. Gov.
Altgeld simply harps upon his one string.
He wants the people to believe that they
are slaves. and that the proper thing for
them to do ia to break their chains by
any force they can command.
These men justly deserve the severest re-
buke that can be administered at the polls.
The standard they have raised is a new
one in this country, and so alien to all the
best interests and aspirations Of the coun-
try that 1t ought to be pulled down for
good and all. And it probably will be-.

The tendency Of national organizations
and institutions to regard Washington as
their central home or headquarters city IL
given a fresh illustration by the decision
of the spiritualists of America, now In
annual convention here. to establish a
temple in this city. Such an enterprise
meets with the commendation Of citizens
without regard to the doctrines of those
who propose 1t. The spiritualists are
comparatively small but earnest body of
believers in a theory Of life and death that
may not appeal stror gly to the followers of
other faiths. but they are very welcome to
establish themselves here in a temple that
will probably add to the architectural fea-
lures of the city and contribute to the
character of the capital as the best place

The Present Generatso~.

Our turn VIII come, though now we have
to sit and hear the praise
That old inhabitants bestow upon the by
gone days.
We're gathering up a budget which will
surely bring despair.
In the future to a rival and more YOUTH
ful raconteur.
We listen to their stories of the actors WIN
lived then.
And hear them say that Hamlet" can't be
really played again:
But we'll avenge each gibe which In our
patient nature sticks
When we tell our sons and grandsons os
the fall Of '96.
They love to cite the orators who 'rou,d
the circle swung:
The stratagems OF generals persistently are
sung;
And there's nothing for young man save
to listen and agree:
You dare not contradict them. for you
weren't there to see.
So, through force of circumstances. we he
stow patient ear.
While they treat our modern wonders with
patronizing sneer.
But we'll have full satisfaction for these
supercilious tricks
When we tell our sons and grandsons of
the fall of '96.
Wen show them how a party-leadershfp
was swept IN reach
OF man without a record by a twenty
minute Speech.
And how another man refused in quest of
fame to roam,
And viewed a nations people in procession
past his home.
Well describe to them an era. II opinions
they advance,
When the very babies prattled economics
and finance.
We will silence every question and grow
haughtiiy protix
When we tell our sons and grandsous of
the fan Of '96.
