The Fall Mountain Paper company of
Bellows Falls has recently shipped a
number of carloads os newspaper to
London for use on one of the large pa
pers there. 1t has during the past year
shipped a number of orders to Australia
and other foreign countries. Having
thousands of acres of heavily timbered
woodland, available to Bellows Falls by
water, and extensive mills for making
pulp by both grinding and chemical pro-
cess, combined with one of the best wa
ter powers In New England, equips it
in such way as to enable it to furnish
paper to the world.
Judge Thompson holds that part of
the fish law is unconstitutional. y test
case came up recently in the Washing
ton county court 1t was state VS..
Francis a. Eaton, a prosecution of
Barre druggist for fishing in Thayer
brook, a private stream in Braintree,
which had been stocked and posted by
the state fish and game commissioners,
and came to an end on respondents
motion to direct a verdict Judge
Thompson decided section 1865 of the
Vermont statutes, giving the commits
sioners the power to stock private
streams and by posting the same to pre-
vent fishing therein for three years, to
be unconstitutional as to waters not
boatabe, which the evidence in this case
showed Thayer brook to be. Judge
Thompson considered the effect of the
statute to be the taking of private
property from the owner without com
peneation. In directing the verdict for
respondent he said the question was so
simple and plain and the answer so
evident that the respondent ought not
to be put to the expense of maintaining
his contention in the supreme court.

Senator HOar is regarded by younger
senators as the ablest man in the senate,
and some go so far as to add the foremost
statesman now in public life. \ any rate
Mr.. Hoar is probably the best read man in
the senate, says correspondent in the
New York Tribune. He is gifted with a
marvellous memory and is able to quote
at an instant 5 notice verse or prose which
he holds to be fitting to the occasion One
day not long ago when eulogizing Eng
land Senator Hoar delivered, with much
Evolutionary fervor this verse:
More great than ever now and more august,
Now gloritied she from her fires doth rise
Her widening streets on new foundations trust
And opening into larger parts she flies
Now like maiden green she doth behold
To her high turrcts hourly suitors come
The east with incense and the west with gold
Shall stand like suppliants to receive hel
doom.
All this was charming and made quite
an impression, until Senator Stewart, who
had listened intcntly remarked savagely,
THAT is So. Senator Hoar paused for a
moment and considered what he had said,
then quickly added, ooh, do not mean
TO have the United States stand up and be
counted in that company. OF course the
laugh was at Mr. Hoar's expense, and
Senator Stewart enjoyed it immensely.

HOW INDIANS ARE Named
Titles Merely Incidental and Often Tenn
porary.

Titles Merely Incidental and Often Tenn
porary.
AS the Indian child grows he commits
acts from time to time each of which gives
him new name. For example, he may
see u bear and run screaming to the tepee.
The folks all laugh at him, and call him
Runs from-a-bear Later on he may be-
come the possessor Of an unruly pony
which he fears to ride and become known
as Afraid-Of his horse. Or, he may mount
horse FROM which another Indian has
been thrown, and he then is spoken of as
Rides-the-hors Farther on he becomes a
great hunter and kills five bears and they
call him Five-bears, and when he Stays an
other his name changes to Six bears He
may perform "a valiant deed in battle and
ride his horse through the camp of his en-
envy, for which he is dubbed Charges
through -the-calnp, During the conflict he
may kill one Of the enemy. If his victim
Is the only one slain, he is called Kills-the-
enemy. But if Others fall the one he has
killed must be described, rs Kills-the-One-
with the big knee. If he braids in his hair
a yellow feather which he has plucked
from the tail of an eagle, he may be called
Eagle-tail, Eagle feather, Yellow tail OF
Yellow feather If ne gives it TO his friend,
he will be named Gives feather but if he
refuses to part with it his name will
change TO kceps-his feather Or he may
obtain his name from some other object.
If he Is accustomed to ride what is com.
monty known as "calico' horse, he may
be called Spotted horse, but if his horse
has short tail he will be known as Bob
tail horse. The chances are that he will
be known by all the foregoing names. His
enemies in the tribe will continue to speak
of him as Long-ears, Runs-from "A bear, or
Afraid of his horse while his friends will
call him Rides the horse, Six bears or
Kills-the-enemy. For this reason it occurs
that If you speak of the Indian in the pres.
ence of certain members of the tribe and
call him SiX-bears they will laugh at you
and say, That not his Nance his name
Runs from-a bear" But if you speak of
him to certain others as Runs-from IA bear
they will scowl and say, "That not his
name his name Kills-the-enemy.
Hence it will be seen that the Indian
names are nothing, "a delusion and snare,
and the practice OF converting them into
English appears eminently unwise. 1t Is
certain that the name on the roll at the
agency is the Interpretation of only one OF
the Indians several names. A short
Indian name in their own vernacular, or "A
syllable or two of long one, if euphonious
and pronounceable, as they usually are,
will answer quite well for family name,
but the TRANSACTIONS are never satisfactory
and cannot be too strongly condemned. -

SMART YANKEE SHIPPERS.


GERS Of Fifty Years Ago.
"The officers Of American ships about 90
years ago, said the old skipper "were, as
a class. the best dressed men in the coun-
try Their apparel, when ashore, was
without foppeiy as it was understood in
those days. OF course they had foreign
countries to draw upon for their figured
silk waistcoats and their embroidered shirt
fronts, which might be thought a little ex-
trcme in these unromantiC times of steam
and SCOT and grease. The frock coat in
those days was cut with a short skirt and
was buttoned ut the waist. The waistcoats
were cut low, exposing an expanse of i'm
maculate shirt bosom, and the trousers
were cut large at the bottom and set neat
ly over the instep.
Il can see now one of the old time Yam
kee sailors, u first or a second mate of u
China clipper OF an Atlantic packet, walk
ing up the shilling side of Broadway,
say between Canal and Blocker streets,
on % pleasant afternoon. You could dis
Germ no difference between his shore toys
and the dress of the regular Broadway
swell, either in cut or quality, and yet
every one knew the mariner, because he
had the air of the traveller and perhaps "a
suggestion in his gait of the man of the
sea His trousers were light gray or Law
endcr, his coat dark blue and his waist
coat maroCS or wine colorcd silk, heavily
embroidered. He sometimes affected a
light rattan or whalcbone cane, and also
wore the tall silk beaver hat fashionable
at that period. His cravat was always sky
blue and was tied in the old fashioned
slipknot, new termed the yacht knot.
The soft white hat was in favor with our
sailor swells. In fact, they introduced it
into this country long before the Kossuth
became common.
1.-THE first mates of our ships lived
ashore when in Liverpool, as no fires were
allowed aboard ships when they were in
dock there. They lived well, ana scNarate
from the seamen Of other countries. Xhey
were welcome everywhere, ana in no Jvirt
of the globe more than in Liverpool
Scores of American ships were loading and
unloading in the docks all the year round.
The men were clannish and strolled about
the city in squads. What old shcllback
doesn remember Williamson square, that
classic ground of taprooms Here the
Yankee tars got together around the tables,
passed the can and sang in chorus until
the rafters rang
The old time Yankee sailor loved his
profession, but he was too gentccl to talk
shop, or ship, unless in the company of
none but his shipmates. When he was
ashore for holiday, nothing in his speech
or his appearance, except perhaps his
bronzed face and sinewy hands, indicated
that he was a toiler of the sea. New
