Cooney, the ex-notary public charged
with perjury in connection with the

defense asked a weeks continuance,

WHY?

Why do Wall and Lor bard streets
have in their keeping the conscience
of the people of the United States with
regard to the struggling patriots of
Cuba? Because Wall and Lombard
streets also have in their keeping or
control the money Of two continents.
Why don't the Senate pass the
Cameron resolution recognizing the
Independence Of Cuba? Because the
money powers of the United States
and Europe don't want Spanish bonds
repudiated.
Why have the failure ofsbanks and

until Monday the House adjourned to
meet on Sunday. The meeting was
simply to meet the requirements Of

The session was very btief, lasting
only fifteen minutes. AS soon as the

ion from the Speaker that he would
not take advantage Of their absence
az adjournment was taken.

A MYSTERY CLEARED.
Sarah c. HOskIns, Who EIoped from
BrattlebOro with Insurance Agent
Brown, Has Been Found.

Brown, Has Been Found.
Many Brattleboro people will remember
the mysterious disappearance of Sarah c.
Hoskins, about %, and VIM. II. Brown,
about 80, in May, 1895. Miss Hoskins
came here from South Londonderry, where
her parents are highly respected people.
Brown was a special agent for the New
York Life Insurance company, and was
man "who had seen better days" He
was, however, an expert solicitor, and did
effective work here. He was said to have
wife and three children at Rutland, and
there is a report that after he came here
his wife sued for divorce. Brown had
met Miss Hoskins at South Londonderry,
and be paid her some attention after she
came here, but they were seldom seen to-
gether in public.
Miss Hoskins left Mrs. Prentice's one
Friday, saying she would return the next
Sunday or Monday. She did not come
back, and on Wednesday a letter was re-
ceived from her, saying she had been un-
avoidably detained, and if unable to come
back the following week she would write
more at length. She left her trunk and
most of her apparel at Mrs. Prentice's.
Browns disappearance at the time Miss
Hoskinslleft led people to believe that they
had eloped, and it now appears that this
conjecture was correct.
The girls parents suffered greatly, and
the father sought in vain to get traces of
his daughter, until last May, when Penn
sylvania Grand Army man wrote him that
she was in town in that state in destitute
circumstances. The father at once wrote
there and the daughter replied. She
claims to be married to Brown. She has
recently come from Pennsylvania to the
home of sister in a nearby Massachusetts,
town, and the mother has been summoned
there to see her. 1t is understood that
there are some very distressing circum-
stances in connection with the case. When
Brown went from Brattleboro he left bills
unpaid. Some people believe that he ex-
ercised a hypnotic influence over Miss
Hoskins.

BRATTIEBoRo STREET RAILWAY

Crosby aud Anti-Crosby---to he Presi-
dent or Not TO Be---the Question 10 ",
Decided At the Annual Meeting Next
Monday Evening.
Unless indications are deceptive there
will be some plain talk at Grange hall next
Monday evening, at which time and place
the annual meeting Of the stockholders Of
the Brattleboro Street Railway company
will be held. As has already been iudi-
Gated there is a determination on the part
of some who are dissatisfied with the pres
ent management Of the road to Gust f. c.
Crosby from the presidency and from
dictatorship, and there will also be made
as vigorous an attempt by Mr.. Crosby
supporters to have him retained in his pres
ent capacity. Both sides claim to have the
support of the majority of stock but {, +,
absolutely impossible for either to know
whether it has or not. 1t is one thing for
a man to say which way he is going to vote
and another thing for him to vote after he
has heard both sides of the case stated.
There are sos shares of stock in the
road. OF these it would appear that abou,
200 shares. wned by some of the largest
stockholders, will support Mr.. Crosby.
What proportion of the smaller sharehod
ers will vote for him no one can tell. Those
opposed to Mr.. Crosby have decided upon
no one in particular TO succeed him, in fac.
they all agree that Mr. Crosby is the best
man for the place. but they cannot tolerate
his method of taking the entire manage.
ment of the road into his own hands and
allowing the other directors no voice in il.
Some of the directors have said that they
will not serve with Mr.. Crosby another
year, but whether they will or not is an
other Of the uncertainties in the case. Mr..
Crosby counts upon at least two of them
and it is understood that in an emergency
he will attempt to have Charles Otis of
Ionkers, n. Y, and c. W. Wyman put
upon the board. Mr.. Crosby admits that
in his zeal he may have overstepped his
authority. Probably if he were to stand
up in the meeting and agree TO act in strict
accordance with the bylaws of the road
his reelection would be unanimous.
directors meeting was held MONDAY
evening at which it was voted to pass the
dividend on the past years business. The
receipts of the road the past year have
been some 5000 less than last year. but
the road has more than paid expenses and
but for the extra cost of construction the
past year it would have yielded enough so
that dividend of six per cent might have
been declared. The coming annual meet
ing was also thoroughly discussed, but only
meagre report Of the result of the discus
sion can be obtained.

GRANGE NEWS.
windham County Pomona Grange.

Windham County Pomona GRANGE met
with Victory grange, at W innIe D''
Wednesday, August I. Worthy Ma.
ter F. II. Spauldng presiding. The
morning ses ion was devoted TO business.
Reports from the subordinate oranges
showed that all in the county were in a
good working condition and gaining in
membership. Five candidates were obli-
gated in the fifth degree. At the close of
the morning session bountiful dinner was
served by the Wilmington grange. The
afternoon session was open to the public.
Music by the choir was followed by verv
able address of welcome by Hon. O. f.
ButterheId, in which he spoke of farming
as being an ancient and honorable occupa-
ton which required as much intelligence
ana brains as any other calling. The re-
Spouse was given by F. H. Spaulding. Mr..
and Mrs. P. III. Davis gave an organ and
violin duet; select reading, 1.-THE First
Baby" by Frank Bellows; recitations by
Mrs Mixer and Eva Ware. The question,
What education is most needed bv the
farmer and the best way to obtain it,"
was ably discussed by ". Z. Banks, Frank
Fitch, Mr.. Bellows, Judge Titus. Mr..
Boyd, Mr.. Spaulding and others. While
all agreed that college education (espec-
tally an agricultural college, was great ad-
vantage, it was not absolutely necessary to
make good farmer. An interest in and
love for the work, the study and practice
of economy, seemed to be the most import
ant points for a farmer. A course in
dairy school was spoken of as being profit
able. Some attention should also be given
physical culture and a limited, if not a
thorough knowledge of chemistry was de-
sirable, while a good business education
was OF the greatest advantage If one would
be successful farmer. Then followed a
recitation by Mrs. II. W. Sargent, a read
ing by Mrs. j. Gleason, recitation by Mary
Bellows.
Music by the choir brought to a close
one of the pleasantest and most profitable
meetings of the year. A large delegation
from Protective grange was present.
The annual meeting of the dramatic club
will be held, this, Friday, evening.
The next regular meeting of Protective
grange will be held on Tuesday evening,
August 10, when a class will be instructed
in the first and second degrees.
