Rev. Charles G. Merrill. graduate of
the last class in Yale divinity school, and
a son of Rev. j. l.. Merrill of Newbury,
has received unanimous call to the Con-
Cregational church in Steubenville, Ohio.
Frank c. Denison, of the firm of Deni-
son Brothers of Pttsford, has been APP
pointed United States consul at Wood
stock, y. b. He has been postmaster at
Pi;tsford several terms, has held the i'm
portant town offices, and served as chair
man Of the Republican county committee.
The salary of the new position is $500,
and the official fees have been about $1,000
a year. The present consul is Vermont
man.
Stephen II. Chaffee, clerk and treasurer
of Mt. Holly, is short in his accounts
about $1,000. Where the money has gone
is a mystery. Some time ago his wife left
him, but this did not seem strange as she
had had two previous matrimonial ventures
in which the divorce court had been called
upon to unite a CALLING knot. The select
men are waiting for him to get well, as he
has collapsed under the strain of his double
trouble.
1t is understood that the two front doors
of the old Catamount Tavern, which be-
long to the Robinson collection of Ben
nington battle relics, will be placed on one
of the lawns during the day of the dedica-
ton of the Catamount Tavern monument.
The public will be permitted to see the
identical doors that were opened and
closed at the old tavern many times by
Stark, Warner, Chittenden, Allen, and
many others of Vermcnt's early heroes.

Ely Mining Company I'm Insolvency,
Owing to Outside Complications.


The Ely copper mine was sold about a
year ago to men interested in the United
Telegram company of Boston, concern
with profitable business. The vice presi-
dent of the Boston company was general
manager of the Ely company and each had
the same treasurer. Early in January the
New York and New Bedford directors and
Worcester stockholders took steps to GUST
from the management of the Boston COM
pany the president and treasurer, obtaining
from the United States court receiver,
who is now in charge of the property. The
same gentleman being interested in both
the Boston company and the Ely Mining
company, the fight quite naturally extend
ed to both companies. Money not being
forthcoming to pay the workmen at the
mines, work was suspended April /, and
the company was petitioned into insolvency
by the workmen.

The following from the vicinity OF
Little England seems to present clear
ly the lingering hopes Of the deluded
Colorado product of the National Repub-
lican party:
ut begins to look as though the Re-
publican party would make an honest
effort to secure an International agree
ment on the financial question. Senator
Wolcott is at the head of the committee
to present bill to congress for this pur-
pose, and realizing as he does, the need
of the re-establishment of silver to its old
place as money metal, he may be tx
pec,ed TO do all in his power to secure
favorable action so far as our country is
concerned. But the trouble will be that
England is not likely to consent to an
agreement advantageous to the United
States"
Unfortunately there are too many IF"
contained in the premises to leave any
hopes for comforting conclusion. The
Journal had better guess again.

The sci.ntifc discussion as to what
the members of congress want to do in
regard to the Cuban resolution, as to
what effect the united opposition of the
European powers will have upon their
minds and as to the chances of the ulti-
mate success of the opposition of the
resolution in case of the prolongation of
chin.music, continues to arouse wonder
and dismay. The dispatches will have
succeeded in anihilating either the Gu
bans or Spanish or both, ages before the
government will have made up its mind
in regard to which side Of the fence it
wants to stand on. The friendliness of
the chief executive, tickles the Spanish,
and the actions of congress don't. But,
at any rate, both may be depended upon
to use dilatory measures to such ends
that no one. right or wrong, will be aided
or offended.

Mehigan's Rich Copper Mines.

An idea of the richness of some of the copper mines of Michigan may be gained from the fact that they have thus far paid their owners dividends of fully TO- 900 OO0$ The divldenh of 25$ d share tut declared ny the Calumet & Hecla Copper Mining Company for ne current year IS espec ally noteworthy because it is the greatest dividend ever paid by this remarkable property. There are 100000 shares, so that the total sum distributed among shareholders was 2,500,000$. When it is considered that the original value of all these shares was just the last amount mentioned, the tremendous earning powers ot the property will be appreciated. The selling value of the stock is about thirteen times it's par
 value. The year 1896 has been the most prosperous ever known for copper min ing, owing to the great foreign demand for American copper. The home demand was restricted by the depressed condl
 ton of business, but this falling off has been more than made up by the demand from abroad. During the ten months ending November 1, the European pur- chases of copper amounted to 225 000,OO0 pounds, nearly double that of the same period last year. This was 60 per cent of the entire output of this country and was drawn principally from the Lake Superior copper Chicago Record.

overproduction-as though there could be overproduction while millions ot human beings go hungry and unclothed-and sharing with the landlord and the usurer the responsibility of bringing poverty and hatred and crime to curse the earth and fill it with woe.
 Thus we see destitution and plenty seated side by side, one in the tatters and threads of grim despair, the other in the proud trapplngs of superfluous wealth And yet, possibly, neither has been the architect of his own fortunes neither deserved the bad fate on the one hand, or the good things on the other, which the gods have given them. But it would be sedition, socialism and sin to seek way to make their burdens and their joys more equal, although both were made of the same clay and in the image of their impartial and omnipotent Maker.
