 Tomorrow will be busy day at AL kire's. Wednesday has always been a successful salesday at the big store and the boys propose to inaugurate an- other of their trade winning bargain sales on that day. The goods to be disposed on next Wednesday will be all wash goods and of quality unexcelled. The prices will be principally what the buyer wants them to be, for Al- kire's are not seeking to make their everlasting never get over it out of this one sale. It has ever been their policy to divide literally with the cus- toner, always praferring ito do much business on a small margin, than to do a little business on large margin. All successful men of business understand the correctness of this principle and while the majority of buyers perhaps do not, they readily appreciate it. Here is a partial list of the goods that will go at bargain figures on Wednesday next: Organdies, lawns, batistes, dim ities, swivel silks, and silk and wool challies. All wash goods, remember and all figured in the latest designs ot the eastern mills.

NEGLIGENT AND INCOMPETENT.

At the risk of another assault from the Dunbar family, The Republican re- news it's charge that the gardener employed by the Capitol site commis- sioners is wilfully negligent and wholly incompetent. To retain him longer in that position means that the trees and shrubbery at the Capitol grounds will be entirely destroyed.
 The position is one that requires a man of skill, for the territory has spent many thousand dollars in the purchase of rare and valuable trees and plants that only a professional man can prop erly care for. A man who understood the business and whose work had been credit to the territory was supplant- ed to give the present gardener job. This gardener not only has no knowl edge of the business, but he had been unable to hold any position of any kind prior to having been unloaded upon the territory. For days he is not at the Capitol grounds-which, perhaps, is a good thing for the grounds-and a common Mexican laborer spends two or three days a week at the grounds. No other work of any kind is per formed, but it costs the territory from | $80 to $100 per month. In the last | three or four months trees and plants have died from neglect and others can not be found.
 ] The employment of young Dunbar as gardener was part of the price by which Hughes purchased the supper; 1 of The Gazette The outrage should not be permitted to continue. The money paid to Dunbar is a trife com pared with the great loss sustained by
 having so incompetent man in so i'm.
 portant position. The Capitol site commissioners may be ignorant of the
 condition of things, but if they art
 hundreds of people can enlighten them
 It is the presumption that many ex
 isting abuses will be corrected undel
 the present administration; but if tn, Capitol grounds are not to be utterl. ' destroyed there should be no delay il
 this matter.
 The Citizens league which has ac ; compiished good work in many of tn l departments of government can her

Memorial exercises were held here at
schoolhouse hall and were well attended.
The exercises were quite little better, by
many minds, than usual by being participated
in so much by the school children in patriotic
recitations etc. This is as it should be, it is
the young people upon whom these annual
services are to make an impression, the Older
ones can remember the experiences of former
days without any aid or effort. Let the
children have large part in them. E.

THE TIMES.
WEDNESDAY,, JUNE B.. 1896.
Vermont Local Notes.
VERMONT ACADEMY.

CUSHING VS.. VERMONT ACADEMY.
The biggest crowd of the season saw
Cushing's crack ball team go down at the
hands of the academy boys Memorial day in
the most exciting game yet by score of6-5.
The same team had beaten V. A. earlier in
the season but this time the tableswere turned !;
but not until the last man was out in the last
half of the ninth inning could any one tell
which team would win. The game was
married by the ungentlemanly conduct of
Gushing Academy's captain, who kicked ut
every decision the umpire made and made
himself generally obnoxious. Otherwise the
game was a pretty contest and most exciting
to watch or play. The feature of the game
was the work of Gilbert who played the game
of his life. He accepted five hard chances
without an error and with two men on bases
made the longest hit of the year good for four
bases. Twice he hit the ball hard enough tor
two more home runs but was robbed of them
only by the star fielding of Cowick. Rich
ardson also hit the ball well as did Putnam
Fox pitched we'll at critical times and although
he was touched up for nine hits they were
well scattered Shepard also pitched q fine
game. V. A. started in with II rush on u
base on balls to Fox, a hit by Richardson and
a home RIM by Gilbert, and again in the third
inning scored two more runs. Gushing scored
first in the fourth on a hit by Cowick and
Putnam long home run drive and again in
the seventh two more runs on some good
hitting by Stone, Miller and Smith. V. A..
scored what proved the winning run in the
eighth on an error, base on balls, and Fox S
long drive.

Reports of sounds heard between here and

as at last accounts the noise sounded farther
and farther away, we presume there is no
cause for alarm.

Abbot, of Brattleboro called on old acquant-

PUTNEY.

The Westminster ball team played the Put
neys on the Putney grounds May 30, winning
by score of eight to six. The Putneys had
not been beaten this year until they met their
match in this team. The game was well con-
tested, the Putneys fighting to keep up their
record, and the visitors trying to pay off old
scores. Too much praise cannot be accorded
the Westminster West battery for their cool
and steady work, especially in the last two
innings when they held their competitors
down. not allowing them to make but single
score, although the bases were full and the
best men at the bat.
