lacked the accomplishments necessary 20
grace the position he could give a wife,
and divorce was the result. Then the
good citizens of his adopted state mis-
taking his wife's brains for his sent him
to Washington as Senator. Perhaps you
remember as we'll as the scandal caused
by his taking " ife No. 2. The gorgeous
outfit and surroundings of this silver
king was rehearsed by the press all over
the land, and when he deceived the church
and was married by Il Roman Catholic
priest and the ceremony had to be re-
peated by protestant before the con-
tract was valid, even in Washington
they thought the senator little shaky.
In the meantime wife No. l sued her form
er husband and the courts allowed her
100000. This by wise investments
soon placed her and her son among the
wealthiest, and they are the principal
owners OF the Palace Hotel in San Fran
sisco. Soon reverses came to Senator
peared, and when he came on Blended
knee and begged the aid of her he had
spurned, she, well,,-all women are fools
and she did just what the 90 Others
would have done under the same circum-
stances

In response to the call issued by the

weeks HERALD, a representative gather
ing of Democrats from nearly every town
in the county met in convention al Guild
hall last Tuesday to put in nomination
candidates for the county olives. c. NJ.
Fletcher, esq, of Canaan as chairman of
the county committee called the conven-
ton to order. and "fter the usual formal
ties a temporary organization was
effected by the choice Of Franklin Bell of
Lunenburg rs chairman and James NJ.
Gilkey OF Brunswick as secretary, and on
motion the temporary organization was
made the permanent organization OF the
convention. MIR. Bell on taking the chair
delivered an address, dwelling chiefly on
the question of finance and the tariff
which met very general approval. On
motion a committee of three was APP
pointed by the chair as a committee on
nominations and resolutions, and these
were appointed; J. H. Linehan, c. NJ.
Fletcher and P. X. Follansby, who re-
ported as follows:
For Senator, Albert Q. Pottle of

was unanimously accepted and adopted.
The committee on resolutions pre-
scented the following:
RESOLVED, That the Democrats OF Essex
County in Mass Convention assembled,
are still adherert to principles that
underle their great and illusrrious
party. In accordance with Democratic
belief, the majority rules; therefore we
heartily endorse and plrugr our votes
to the nominees of our National, State,
and County Conventions.
A minority report striking out the
word national" in the foregoing reso-
luton was defeated, and the resolution
as presented was adopted.
Following this business John H. Senter
of Montpelier addressed the convention
combining his remarks chiefly to the ques
ton of finance. He spoke in his usual elo
quent strain, and commanded the close
attention of his bearers who frequently
gave vent to their pleasure by hearty ap
plause. From democratic standpoint
it was a splendid and mastery effort anc
was greatly appreciated.

The Water Committee have prepared a
report for the coming town meeting
which we had a purpose to publish; but
it is so voluminous, and contains such a
mass of details that it is not in shape for
publication, and so on looking it over we
have concluded that we shall give our
townsmen readers sufficient information
on which they can act intelligently by
giving a summary OF the results of their
investigation of the subject. The report
states that the committee were unabeto
effect a purchase OF the Island Pond
Aqueduct's plant within the limited price
prescribed by the town. that the next
step was to ascertain as accurately as
possible the expense of getting water
from different supplies; that all agreed
there were only two available ones,
namely: the present system, with the
addition if required of the brook easterly
of it; the other what is called the Jobs
Pond route. In order to get at the most
accurate estimates an experienced man
of great reputation was employed, who
carefully inspected both routes and re-
ported the estimated expense Of con-
structing a water system over them To
construct system in the place Of the
one that now is, but without reference to
it, that is, beginning anew, was estima-
ted to cost $22,5O0. The Jobs Pond
system was estimated to cost S3l 900.
On receipt of this report the committee
thinking further information might be
desired By the town requested the esti'
mator. Mr.. Foster, to estimate the cost
of putting the present system in condl-
ton to furnish the needed supply with
the brook spoken of east OF it included
and the probable cost without appropri
ating the brook. Having this intorma
ton the committee summarize the ex
pense as follows:
To make the present system avallaDle
it will require in addition to the price tc
be paid for it, including the brook Spoken
of ST, 500; without that brook $4,000
The cost of Jobs pond route as STATED
S31 900. Cost of a system in place o
the one now used, including the cas-
brook, S22,5OO; without the brool
SIS 900. Mr.. Foster made these esti
mates, say the committee, without an
knowledge of previous estimates ant
from the correspondence of all the est
mates and the large experience OF tn
man making them the committee fec
much confidence in them. The estimate
include the entire expense, even ditchin
and land damages.

Edna, a daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Lum Aldrich met with a sad and painful
accident last Monday. Charles Felstead
was chopping some sticks on a block,
the little girl removing them when cut,
and somehow she got her right hand on
the block just as the axe descended, with
the result that the third finger was cut
clean OFF and the second finger almost
severed, the bone being cut through.
Drs. Linehan and Norcross were sum-
moned and rendered the necessary surgi.
cal aid and are hoping that they may
save the second finger and the hand from
further mutilation. Very general SYM
pathy is expressed for the little girl III her

Dog-gereI.

Charles Dyer was a citizen,
But though of some renown,
He could not stop dog in this,
Or any other town.
His house he painted green and blue,
Which gave it quite boom;
He also passed law to keep
Dogs from his diningroom.
You know of Marys little lamb?
This story's not the same;
Because the lady in this tale
Was quite unknown to fame
And for lamb she had dog;
The breed is known as pug
(You always tell that kind of beast
BY what is called its mug
She brought it up the hotel steps,
Without a thought of fear;
Charles said lit could not enter in,
But it might finger near
He tied it to the water pipes,
But badly was it nooSed;
For when that landlord turned aside
That little dog vamoosed.
And then began long stern chase
Which covered half the tewn;
Because that dog brother had
| At Causebrook's lower down.
1t entered into Bartlett's store,
Charles still toddling after:
The clerk no more looked dignihed,
| And all were moved to laughter
A small boy caught that dog at last,
Who brought 1t back to Dyer
And when a pug came after that,
| Twas left to Buck to tie her.
|
The years have passed since that great day,
Time all too quickly flies;
Yet still the natives tell the tale,
And cease from telling lies,
To whisper, as tn electric lights
| Flicker and die away,
| of how men smiled and how Dyer riled
| At what occurred; and say,
"That though he was a citizen
They'd put their money down,
He could not catch dog in this
or any other town"
