1t is rather slur on the bona fide
citizens of Vermont, whose residences
and business interests are here, to have
it suggested that Gen" or COL"
somebody who may happen to own pro-
perty in the state and spend the sum-
mer among our people be delegate to
St. Louis. Vermonters should be re-
presented there by her own sons,
residing on her soil, and identified
with her people, and not by summer
visitors whose business is in New York
city, Military titles and money made
in Wall street, or by specializing in
railroads do not constitute any man
a citizen of Vermont even if he does
own a patch or two of land within the

Considerable interest attaches to the
discovery made by Prot. Routgen of
Germany while experimenting with the
Crookes tube, namely, the photograph
ing of an object encased in an opaque
substance or one that has heretofore
been so considered. In photographing
the human body nothing was obtained
but TIE skeleton. In the same manner
a purse containing a few coins was
photographed and only the coins and
the metal clasp Of the purse appear

trical energy that it is now believed to
be, as the light itself is very feeble,
will penetrate the flesh and the material
OF the purse and not the bones and
coins is not known. Whether any
practical results will follow remain. to
be seen but the possibilities are appall-
ing. just think of some kodac fen1
taking snap shot at you, using a
Crookes, tube and discovering that all
you had in your pocket was as old jack
knife, a key ring and fifteen cents

REV. MINOT j. SAVAGE
He Is to Succeed DIR. Collyer, the
Blacksmith Pre- aoher.
The Famous Divine Started His Ministerial
Career as a Missionary to Miners
His Great Success In Chicago
and Boston.

Rev. Minot ]. Savage, of Boston, has
been called to the pastorate of the
Church of the Messiah, at 34th street
and Park avenue, New York. He will
undoubtedly accept. This action has
been taken in accordance with the ear
nest wish of DR.. Collyer, the present
pastor who, he says, has reached that
age where he wishes to escape the Ia
bors involved in the superintendent
of parochial affairs. DIR. Collyer will,
however, continue in connection with
the parish, in reality as pastor "emer-
itus," although there is no technical
name of the sort in the Unitarian
church.
DR.. Collyer told New York Herald
man that for years he had been an in
innate friend of DR.. Savage. In every
word that DR.. Collyer spoke he revealed
his great admiration for his friend.
DR. Savage is one of those men who
have been blessed with boyhoods Of
poverty and hardship. In his struggles
during early life against the many diff
ficulties placed in his way by adverse
fortune he developed to- their best
strength all those excellent character
istics with which generous fortune en-
dowed him.
He was born June 10, 1S41, at Nor
ridgewock, Me. His family was of Eng
fish blood, but it came to this continent
by way of Ireland, where the family
tarried for many generations, long
enough, perhaps, for the Celtic elo-
quence to infuse those germs which
have found their full growth in the
oratory of DR.. Savage. The boy Minot
tells us in one of his writings that he
was never stinted in opportunities for
astronomical research-the attic roof
beneath which he slept permitted him
to stare at the heavens through the
numerous chinks between the shingles,
whereby, too, in the harsh storms of
winter the snow siftcd down, to lay
for him an additional coverlet. The few

The Woodstock Age is opposed to
to sending Office holders to the Chica-
go convention. The Age thinks there
are sufficient number of Democrats
of recognized ability in the State TO
fill the delegation without including
the oficeho'',ing class. Perhaps the
contemporars is right, at any it is none
of our hunt, but wouldn't Vermont
delegation to a Democratic National
convention without B. B. Smalley be
queer sort of a thing? Would it be
recognized as Simon-pure article?
