day, 10 to ,. The game was interesting
until the seventh inning, when bad errors
by the Vermont Academy infield allowed
five men to cross the plate. Vermont
Academy won from Gushing academy
Monday, Q to 5, in the most exciting game
of the year. The visitors had been beaten
6 to / on their own grounds the previous
week and were determined to win. The
score was : to at the beginning of the
ninth inning O'Brien made a single and
Whittemore then won the game by a long
home run drive, Cushing also scored in
the inning but could not tie the game.
The Philadelphia base ball team has
given Mailman and Harley in exchange for
Tom DOwd, the manager and captain of
the St. Louis team. st. Louis also re.
ceived a cash consideration. Dowd has
been playing in the outfield the past two
seasons, but he will be in his old position
at second base for Philadelphia. 1t is
thought that Dowd will strengthen the
Quakers in batting and particularly in base
running, as he is one of the tleetest runners
in the league. Dowd began his base ball
career at Holyoke and then played for two
years on the strong Brattleboro team and
at Brown university. He has played pro-
fessonally with the Boston brotherhood
team, Washington and St. Louis.

Lady Woodsum is running regularly. The
boiler and machinery is being put into the
new steamer built by the same company,
which is not quite as large as the Armenia
White. This makes four steamers to be
upon the lake in regular commission dur
ing this season. The promise is of consd-
cradle increase this season in the business
at the lake. Only one new cottage is be-
ing erected this year in the vicinity of
Brightwood, that being by A. f. Winnie
Wiser, just north of George E. Welch's.
The past two weeks has seen the start
in erection of at least six new dwellings in
the village, all to be substantial additions

erected on the lot next west. Grade sur
veys have been made for one on the lot of
2. L. Kimbal east of Mr.. Finlayson's. A
foundation is already nearly completed on
Atkinson street on the Frank LandOn lot
More building is in progress here than for
some years before. About % dwellings
were built last year, and this number will
be exceeded the present year
DR.. O. NJ. George made trip last week
to his different paper mill interests in New
York state, and before his return made an
important sale of all his interests there.
There are two extensive mills, one at Little
Falls and another at Newburg, about POO
miles apart from each other. Some II or
more years ago DR.. George, Hollis Church
and A. f. Holden, all well known business
men of this place, went out there and in
vested in these mills, and the business has
been profitable one to the investors.
About five years ago Mr.. Church died leav-
ing the business in the hands of the other
two partners, and now Mr.. Holden pur-
chases the doctors interests in the whole
business, and assumes full control from
June l. Mr. and Mrs. Holden reside at
Little Falls and have become prominent
and substantial citizens there. Many old
friends in Bellows Falls rejoice in their APP
parent prosperity. DR.. George has kept
his dentistry practice here, and spent but
a small portion of his own time in the
business, making frequent trips each year.

apart, and varies from six inches Ito three

size of medium rose leaf and are thick,
brittle and glossy. Chewed, 1T gives but
little suggestion of the tea flav or, which is
developed, after drying by the sweating
and the firing in copper lpans, which is
done IN great buildings at VI okohama, after
which it is packed in leadi-lined boxes for
shipment. The Japanese are great tea
drinkers, and we easily fall into the habit,
though it is said that those who see the
process of firing are apt to lose their relish
for it. Tea drink ling does not seem to pro-

AneIen, Papyrt Discovered I'm Egrnt.

The New York SUMS cable announces
the discovery of ancient papyri in Egypt by
Grenfell and Hunt, which promises to be
OF unusual historic interest. These gentle
men, working under the auspices of the
Egyptian exploration fund, found this rich
store in some mounds. The papyri range
from the time of the Roman conquest to
the early Arabic era, most of them being
written in Greek, with some in Latin, Ara
bic and Coptic. Among these interesting
papyri was leaf from a third century
book containing a collection of Christ's
sayings, some of which are not contained
in the Gospel, while others show divergen-
cles from the Gospel text. The hope is
entertained that an examination of these
most interesting documents will yield rich
returns IN the way of lost classical litera-
'nra, In addition to the papyri discovered
there were somceoins, inscribed tiles, ivory
anu bronze ornaments alh.other articles of
the Roman and Byzantine periods.

read by Hon O. +. Butterfeld. Chas. NJ.
