GladneSS Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle etforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

MONTPELIER SENSATIONS.
A Marrow Escape From Murder-Granito
Men strike.

Montpelier, April 22.-What might have
been a murder was frustrated this after
noon
1t seems that James Conlin of Boston
came TO the city last Sunday morning and
went 10 the home of his wife, who obtain
ed a bill of divorce last fall, and made
such n disturbance that Police Officer
Wood was summoned but before he arriv-
ed on the scene Conclln had disappeared
and could not be found. 1t also appears
that he had a grudge against Larry
Mcmahon, who is n polsher at the stone
sheds of Lynch & Mcmahon and yester-
day afternoon went there and asked per-
mission to see Larry" which was grant
ed.
He entered into a somewhat heated dis
cussion with Larry" and was told by
him Ito go about his business" where
upon he gave utterance to threat and
attempted to draw a 7-shot 81 calibre re-
volver from his hip pocket, but the ham
mer caught on the lining of his pocket
and Larry" discovering his intention
struck him in the face, knocking him
down. with the assistance of the work
men he bound Conlin and Police Officei
Demertt was summoned, who, upon his
arrival placed Conlin under arrest and
after some resistance on his part LODGED
him in the county jail.

NO SIR, PRESIDING ELDER.
ELMORe MeTHODISTS WILL CHOOSE
THEIR OWN PREACHER.
Tho Whole Town in Revolt Over the
Action of the Vermont Conference
Will Have Their Old Preacher With
Them Another Year.

Morrisville, April 21.-The peaceful town
of Gilmore, situated four miles east of here,
Is In q state of revolution and rebellion,
only little short of the long drawn out
Cuban excitement. Elmore, like many an
other thoroughly rural community Ia sub
stantially Methodstic in church affliia-
tions and pastorate. It was formerly as
sociated with Morrisviile, one pastor living
at Morrisville having TO fill both pulpits.
The past year the pulpit has been supplied
by Rev. Mr.. Sharman, a youngerly Eng
ishman of considerable ability as a
preacher, having a wife and family, who
were quick to win their way to the hearts
of the people.
At the last quarterly conference previous
to the annual conference at Barre. there
was a unanimous vote that Mr.. Sharman
was the choice of the church and request
ing his return to them for another year,
every man, woman and child in the COM
munity being steadfast friends with the
pastors family. Conference came, and no
one had the slightest intimation that any
other appointment was thought of, but 10
when the eXpcctant pastor and people look
down the list of st. Albans district ap-
pointments 1t is found that Sharman is
dropped out of sight and appointment en-
tircly Thus the young preacher with a
large family, no household goods, other
than bedding, afflicted by somewhat feeble
health, was dropped from the list, and was
nouncd Dy mail Dy Presiding Elder Sher-
burne to vacate the parsonage at once as
Rev. Mr.. Vail was appointed to succeed
him.
The people of the church and community
have arisen in their might and do not pro-
pose to have Mr.. Sharnan co. but will
stand by him to the last ditch a public
meeting has been held which was en-
thusiastic in demonstrations for the con-
| tinuation of Rev. Mr.. Sharmans pastor
ate. After deliberation they determined
| to occupy their own parsonage, and the
general feeling of the community was ex-
pressed in forcfole manner in letter ad-
dressed to Presiding Elder Sherhurne at
St. Albans, and the outcome is awaited
with interest.
The only possible EXCISE that the other
side of the question can have for the condi-
/ tion is that Rev. Mr.. Sharman is not a
pastor in fun fedged connection, being a
supply.

A NOTEWORTHY NEWSPAPER BEAT.
How the Free Press Gave Vermont Con-
fersnce Appointments Ahead ofalI Rtvals.


Inasmuch as the esteemed Rutland Her
aid has been unable to figure out how the
Free Press came to score another scoop"
on 1t in publishing the Vermont Methodist
conference appointments, the following
from the Barre correspondent of the Mont
pelier Argus will be of interest:
There was lively time In Barre Sum
day night over conference appointments.
Bishop Fowler had intended to read them
at the Sunday evening services, but owing
to some late changes that were mode they
were not prepared until too late. Willis
Clark, the Free Press correspondent, OBJ
tained the consent Of the bishop to get
the appointments IN advance for the Mon-
day morning papers, and gave tfpem to
w. w. Lapoint. the Associated Press re-
porter. Both Clark and Lapcint went to
Mon ntpelier to despatch their copy. Clark
got the wire and held 1t until 1:S5 O'Clock.
After sending the Free Press report. the
operator tried for an hour to get the
Boston wire, but could not even call White
River junction. The Associated closed at
2.SO O'Clock, but the appointments vess
stin In the telegraph ONCE. In the Free
Press once they were being converted into
type, anc that paper next morning had .

TILLMAN:

CHICAGO, July 1O.-Senator Till
man was hissed when he abused HUI
and the East and offered this resolu-
ton:
"We denounce the administration of
President Cleveland as undemocratic
and tyrannical, as a departure from
principles which are cherised by all
liberty-loving Americans. The veto
power has been used to thwart the
will of the people as expressed by
their representatives in Congress. The
appointive power has been used to
thwart the will of the people as en-
pressed by their representatives in
Congress. The appointive power has
been used to subsidize the press. 10 de-
bauch Congress, to overawe and con-
troll citizens i'm the free exercise of
their constitutional rights. \ pluto
cratic despotism is sought to bc cs-
tablished on the ruins of the Republic.
We repudiate the constructions of the
financial plank of the last Democratic
| National Convention by President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle as
contrary to the plain meaning OF Eng
| lish words and as being an act of bad
faith, deserving the highest ecnsure.

and other great waterways of the
Republic so as to secure for the inter
ior States easy and cheap transporta-
ton to tidewater. When any water
way of the Republic is of sufficient
importance to demand aid of the Gov
ernment such aid should be extended
upon a definite plan of continuous
work until permanent improvement is
secured.
Confiding in the justice of our cause
and the necessity of it's success at the
polls we submit the foregoing declara-
tion of principles and purposes TO the
considerate judgment of the American
people. We invite the support of all
citizens who approve them and who
desire to have them made effective
through legislation for the relif of the
people and the restoration of the coun-
try's prosperity.
