A Chance of a Lifetime.

Labor is necessity and skilled labor is
always in demand.
The VERMONT WATCHMAN offers the
chance OF a lifetime to any young man or
young woman, who Is anxious to be well
equipped in the battle of life. The condi-
tions are very simple. Arrangements have
been made by THE WATERMAN to give a
thorough business education to the person
who secures the largest number OF sub
scribers to THE WATcHMAN before Septem-
Der /, 1897.
A life membership certificate in Spencer
Business College, Kingston, N. Y, will be
given to the successful canvasser, which
will entitle him, or her, to instruction in all
branches Of Commercial, Stenographic
and Telegraphic course.
The Combined Life Scholarship, includ-
ing the above three courses, costs 500.
This amount OF tuition Is given to the sue
cessful contestant, surely an offer worth
contending for.
Each unsuccessful competitor will be al
lowed to retain ten per cent OF the money
he has received for subscriptions, and thus
earnest effort will not be unrewarded.
Persons desiring to compete must notify
The WATCHMAN before June 10.

SUMMARY OF NEWS.
Domestic.

TEN thousand tailors went on strike in
New York city last Saturday No disturb
ances are reported. About 300 shops are
affected.
ROBERT KEMP, better known as Father
Kemp. the originator OF the "Old Folks
Concert" whose fame once extended
throughout this country and foreign lands,
died last Friday in Boston, at the age OF
seventy-seven years. During the last FIVE
years he had been helpless from creeping
paralysis which finally resulted fatally.
A soUTH-BoUND passenger train on the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad
went through trestle near Ardmore, L. T.,
early last Sunday morning. Fifteen per-
sans were injured, two fatally. A rain
storm amounting almost to a water spout
caused sudden rise Of all the small
streams in the vicinity, which caused a
trestle to wash away. The coach next to
the last, the one Immediately in front of the
Pullman, was left standing directly over
the chasm, one end resting on each bank OF
the gulch. The Pullman remained on tho
track. The four coaches which were dragged
by the locomotive across the broken trestle.
were badly wrecked. The baggage car
telescoped with the passenger coach, and
the latter was all but demolished.
PRESIDENT MCKINLEY sent to congress,
on Monday, message recommending re-
lief for American citizens in Cuba, and that
$4,000 be appropriated for this purpose.
The closing paragraph Of the message reads
ut is desirable that part Of the sum which
may be appropriated by congress should in
the discretion of the secretary of state, also
be used for the transportation Of American
citizens desiring to return to the United
States who are without means to do so.'
The Senate committee on foreign relations
reported at once resolution carrying into
effect the presidents message, and it passed
the Senate without discussion. In the
House Mr.. Hit Of Illinois, asked for imme.
date consideration Of bill to appropriate
1000 for the relief OF destitute Americans
in Cuba, but Mr.. Bailey, of Kansas, said he
must object unless an amendment embody
ing Senator Morgan's resolution for recog
milton OF the insurgents be added. Mr.
Dingley objected to the amendment where
upon Mr.. Bailey objected to the bill and tn,
Cuban question was side-tracked.

The London Star says in regard to the
Standard Oil trust: "The Paris horrors are
surpassed, men, women and children here
are roasted alive in order to put money into
the pockets of the American trust. Rookie
teller has obtained absolute control Of the
oil trade OF Great Britain by forcing retail
ers to sell the refuse oils prohibited in
America and is responsible for the terrible
series Of lamp explosions"
In the British House of Commons on
Monday discussion was resumed on the mo-
ton of the Earl Of Dunraven for an inquiry
into the reports of prevalence of contagious
diseases among the soldiers of the British
army in India and the effect of these dis
orders upon the population Of that country.
The Earl of Kimberley, the liberal leader,
the Marquis of Landsdowne. the Duke OF
Cambridge and Lord Playfair participated
in the debate, all admitting the existence of
terrible state Of affairs.
KALEIDOSCOPE pictures of the Corbett-
Fitzsimmon's fight at Carson are barred
from exhibition in Canada. Sir Oliver
Mowat, minister of justice, has drafted an
amendment to the criminal code making it
misdomeanor to,exhibtlpictures of prize
fights in Canada. The penalties are severe
including fine of from $500 to 5000 and
imprisonment for a term not exceeding u
months. The amendment will be made a
government measure and passed through
both houses at once.
AT the city election in Toronto, Ont, last
Friday, the citizens voted in favor of run
ming street cars on Sunday, but the cars did
not run last Sunday, and there is question
as to whether they will run at all. The by
law under which the vote was taken has yet
to be read a third time before the city coun-
Gil, and this is not likely to be done until
legal point raised by the clerical party has
been settled. A law passed by the local
legislature last session is to the effect that
street car companies were prohibited from
running on Sunday unless they had already
secured the right to do so before the pas
sage of the act. The opponents of the cars
claim that this nullifies the vote and the
question will at once be submitted to the
best legal talent. There is no doubt that a
big legal battle has to be fought before the
cars will be allowed to run.
ADvICEs from London say that the settle
ment OF the terms of peace between Greece
and Turkey threaten to be long and difficult.
The Porte has begun by demanding every.
thing in sight, as was to be expected. The
public sentiment of Europe will be outraged
If single point in the amazing list sug-
gested in behalf Of the sultan be conceded.
England will certainly oppose every one of
the preposterous claims. England's policy
in the mediation will be to restore the
Greeks shall evacuate Crete and perhaps
pay small indemnity. The powers are al
ready realizing that the process of securing
Turkish consent to such terms will be more
dangerous to the peace of Europe than the
present war. In fact, the political perils of
the eastern situation are only Just begin
ming. The general public, including the
stock markets. take, however, most rosy
view Of the future.
