Those who attended the Battenkill
Fair last week from this side speak
we'll Of the exhibit. We quote from
the Rutland Herald correspondent
under date of Friday:
The Battenkill Valley Fair closed
today with the races postponed from
Wednesday. Capt. +. Bowman OF
Rutland WAS starter at the races, and
John Morftt and W. II. Benedict
were judges.
The exhibits this year have been
better in every department, except
the horse department, than in previ-
Gus years. Wednesday WAS the big
day, the floral parade, which was ex-
celent, drawing many spectators.
Thursdays programme was postponed
until today because Of rain.
The only accident which marred the
pleasures of the fair was the death OF
School Boy, who dropped in the third
heat of the flee-for all race today
The diver was unhnrt. Veterinaries
say the death of the horse, which was
valuable animal, was due to hear
disease. He was the property o.
Bolger Brothers of Hydeville, anC

goers.

for the next nine months the best

henceforth there will be eggs enough
TO take to the store for purpose of
trade. The parlor blinds will be kept

justed at the proper angle. The boz

}radstreet's of Saturday says

Bradstreets OF Saturday says:
The moderate improvement in trade
the past few weeks continues, and is
emphasized by further speculative pur-
chases of wool renewed buying by
wool manufacturers, the reduction of
surplus stocks of cotton goods, increased
demand for seasonable fabrics, contin-
ued confidence among manufacturers Of
iron and steel that there will be an
early revival in demand and improve
ment in request for staple goods.
The volume OF sales of general mer-
chandise shows small gain over last
week, and The feeling among wholesale
merchants is one of more confidence i'll a
comparatively early improvement.
The increase in total bank clearings
throughout the United States is some
what larger than in recent weeks, a
mounting to s909,000,000, an increase
of 20 per cent compared with last week,
but decrease Of 16 per cent when con-
trasted with the corresponding period
last year.
Exports of wheat, -four included a:
wheat, from coasts of the United States
this week amount to 1866, 326 bushels,
against 3,7O9,0OO bushels last meek,
2,538,000 bushels in the week one
year ago, 1857, 900 bushels two year.
ago and 4,727,O00 bushels in 1898.
| The total number of business failures
throughout the United States this week
is 315, which is seven more than las
week and 81 more than in the CORES
ponding week last year. The increased
proportion of the number of failures o
concerns with large capital continue
noticeable.

The New York Democratic state
convention held at Buffalo last week
nominated John Boyd Thatcher of AL
bany for governor and endorsed the
Chicago platform in its entirety and
pronounced it the best ever written.
Thatcher, the nominee, is an eighteen
carat gold man and since his nominal
ton is out in a letter declaring that he
cannot change his opinions to suit the
convention but, in order to be regular,
he will vote for Bryan and make his
canvass on State issues Mr.. Thatcher
hopes to fly into Office as gold bug
with silver wings shouting for state re.
form. He will probably get there
short 100000 votes.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way TO cure Deafness. and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eu>tarhian Tube
When this tube gets Unframed you have a
iumbliug sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, aud unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
FORMAL condition, hearing will be de-
siroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur.
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol-

sugaring Off In September.

The Burlington Free Press says: ga
good story is brought from St. Paul by
the Grand Army veterans of this state
who attended the national enca mpment
in that city. On the morning of the
parade the returns from the Vermont
election were published, and as the
Vermont delegation marched they were
cheered to the echo upon the result.
One spectator, who thought he would
have fun with the Vermonters, cried
out, "Hello, Vermont, How is maple
sugar. Maj. Bowman of St. Johns
bury answered him promptly, "Ver-
mont sugared off yesterday. Didn't
you read all about it in the morning
papers?" The reply was received with
great cheers by thetremendous crowd. :"
1t should be added that Maj, Bowman
is lifelong Democrat but cant stand

There is little doubt that free coin.
age would put the price Of silver up
somewhat, although the advance would
very likely be only temporary, but
somehow the people who own silver do
not exactly show confidence that free
coinage is coming. They are too anx,
ious to sell for that. Since the Chi
cago convention theprice of silver bull
ion has actually fallen, until now we
have but 80 cents worth in a dollar.
By the way, there were l1,212,4lz
silver dollars coined by our government
during the first eight months of the cur
rent year. 1t sounds odd to say tha
we coin more dollars now in a. single
month than were coined in any II
years before silver was "demonetized,
but the fact is thus reported. RUTLAND

Of compressed air lies in its appllca-
ton to traction purposes. In Rome, N.
y, the IIardie system of compressed
air street cars is in use.
The cars are about the size of the
summer cars used on the Clark street
cable system in Chicago, and the mo
tor or propelling machinery is con-
cealed beneath the car. The motor
cars weigh about eight and one-half
tons each, and the compressed air is
stored in cylinders, made without
seams. of mild steel. These cylinders
are called "Mannesmann bottles" and
! can withstand enormous pressures.
The air stored in these cases passes
through reducing valves into pipes
which pass through hot-water tank.
The heat expands the air SO that less
of It is used to obtain a given result.
The air pipes lead to the platform
where the motorman is stationed, and
where the controlling valves are
| placed.
The engine is connected with all Of
the four wheels, and occupies less
space than an electrical motor of the
same horsepower. The motor is rapid
in action, but is under perfect control,
and the air Is so elastic that there Is
no jolt or jerk to the car when the
car is started. There is no danger
from an explosion, for even If the stor-
age cylinders should burst the steel
she'll would simply peel off, the air
would escape and nothing but dust
would be raised. The storage tanks
or cylinders contain enough air for q
, round trip, and they can be recharged
in a minute or two. If the motor cal

placed in it, and double supply Of
