places. The Veriscope is without doubt
the most perfect of any of the projecting
picture machines yet produced and is the
only machine upon which was taken
record ofthe glove contest. In showing
the fourteen rounds OF this contest, to-
gether with the preliminary and final
scenes, over $4,000 pictures are cast
upon the canvas, each picture in itself,
and yet merging so smoothly into each
other that the whole seems like one pic
ture endowed with the supernatural mo-
ton OF life. These pictures are photo.
graphed upon thin strips of film, the
preparation of which is closely guarded
secret, and the amount Of film used if
stretched out in a single line, would
measure over two and third miles in
length

field Republican has the following con-
cerning the change Of officers at the COM
ing school.
"The election to fill the vacancy in the
Vermont national guard, caused by the
retirement of Col. George II. Bond OF
Brat,leboro, will probably be held at the
officers school at st. Johnsbury next
month. Lieut-Col. Watson of Bradford
will probably be the new commander of
the regiment. Capt. J. Gray Estey of Co.
Of this place will probably be major.
In this case Co. would be thrown from
the position OF senior companyin the 1st
battalion to that OF junior company in
the Sd battalion. The chances are in
favor OF the choice OF Capt. j. Harry
Estey, adjutant of the 1st regiment, as
captain oil Co. l."
