Charley Reilly. the clever third baseman
Of the Washingtons, was not in either of
Yesterdays games. That Knockout in
Sundays game was the cause of Mr.. Reilly
staying on the bench. But for a chew Of
tobacco the Knockout would not have had
any influence on his play. Charlie was mas
ticating q large hunk of black plug tobacco
when he Was hit in the jaw by McGuire's
throw The shock not only rendered him
unconscious. but caused him to swallow the
tobacco. He had vomiting spell after the
game. and was so weak that Manager Gus
Schmelz thought 1t best to put some one In
his place.H 49, SO.
Norton. who played left field for the
Senators yesterday. met with what might
have been a dangerous accident during the
eighth inning of the afternoon game. In
chasing foul fly hit by Miller, Norton,
after making the catch. was unable to
check his speed, and he ran into the ropes
which had been stretched along the left
Held bleachers. The ropes struck Norton
just below the knee, and when he coliided
with them at full speed he was thrown
nigh In the air and fell head first against
the fence. He was stunned by the blow,
but glass of Ice water and little fan
ming brought him around and he continued
to play.
The Washingtons are unfortunate in the
matter Of knock-outs. Richey put to
sleep" another Of the Senators in the after
noon game yesterday and still another one
got fall that rendered him unconscious.
Wrigley was the first victim. He hit to
right field in the seventh, and tried to
stretch his single into double. Miller's
throw was good one. and the play was a
close one. Richey tagged Wrigley on the
jaw as he slid in. He tagged him a little
too hard. so hard that Wrigley was knock
ed out by the blow. He fell across the
base. and 1t was some time before he

LETTERS TO MlooLesuRY PEOPLE.

Mrs, T. f. WELLS, Middlebury. VT
Madam:-Do you know why soap
makers make strong soap-soap that
rOts clothes? Not to defraud you, Soap
makers are honest. But strong soaps
lather so freely, wash so easy and are so
cheap in price that they are easiest to
sell-tO the thousands who do not know
or care what they get so long as it's
cheap and washes easy.
Nearly all soap makers make mid
soap as well as strong, but some of you
won't buy the mild because they cost
more by the pound. The price frightens
you away.
We honestly believe that mild soap
like Harmless, by not rotting the clothes,
is worth more than our lower priced
soap by a dollar a pound. Yet it costs
but cent or two more, and pound out
washes two pounds of the other.
Yours truly,

In conclusion Mr.. Chandler said: 81
declare my belief that President Mckin-
ley and the other leaders of the party,
in their present advent to power, may,
by wise designs and virtuous deeds, in.
definitely prolong the ascendancy of. the
republican party in this country. This
can surely be done by making it the true
party of the people to the final confusion
and discontinue of those pretenders-
the blind leaders of the blind--who were
so summarily, on the third of November
last, all thrown into the ditch together.
If, on the contrary, this is not done, and
if the republican party shall content It.
self with seizing and enjoying the spoils
of office, surrendering unreservedly to
the money power, acquiescing perman
emily in the existing gold standard and
treating bimetallsm as Juggling hum
bug and the promise to promote it. ac-
cording to the advice of the New York
sun. as pledge never intended to be
fulfilled, republicans will speedily find
the tide ,of political battle once more
turned against them, and they will soon
exchange places with their now sore,
bleeding and PROSTATE foes"

We are sorry to see it announced that
there is to be an especially large parade
of soldiers, regulars and militia, at the
coming Inauguration of Mr.. Mckinley. We
are sorry to see it because it is not in
consonance with the spirit of our instl-
tutions. The military arm is not one
that it is an object for a free people to
make prominent. The strength of our
institutions lies in the love of them by
the people, and that love is and always
will be while the institutions last. sut-
ficient bulwark for their protection. a
republican government is the strongest
in the world. because it enlists the SYM
pathy and support of every individual
in the nation, for every individual has an
equal part and feels that he has an equal
part in the management of the gov
ernment. This source of power Is infin-
itely better than troops, as we'll as in
finitely less expensive, and the people
may well be jealous of anything that
savors of an attempt or desire to substl-
tute any other power for this.
We are very glad to be able to say In
this connection that our Vermont legis-
lature refused to appropriate money to
send the State militia to Washington on
this occasion.

SENATOR CHANDLER ON BlMzrALLLlsM


Hon. Wm. f. Chandler of New Hamp.
shire on Tuesday addressed the senate in
support of his resolution offered on Feb
ruary ,, declaring it to be the sense of
the senate that the United States should
not permanently acquiesce in the single
gold standard. He said that he earnest
ly favored the resolution because he was
an advocate of bimetallism and an Op-
pOnent of monometallsm, whether of
gold or silver. He believed that the la
mentable condition of business in this
country and nearly all countries was due
in a large measure to the continuous fall
of prices which was caused by the ap-
probation of the standard of value. The
remedy was the restoration of bimetal-
lism.
''.Po the system from which we have
departed" he added, "we must return,
and | trust that we are already on the
road"
Mr. Chandler pointed to the fact that
the worlds production of gold and silver
in 1896 was S2l5, 100000 of each metal
and his CONNIE mt upon that fact was that
it seemed as il nature had interpOsed to
refute the prediction of those who had
demanded the denomination of silver on
the ground Of its enormous overproduc-
tiOn.
Mr.. Chandler spoke of the declarations
of French, German and English public
men in favor of bimetallism and asked
whether in view of those declarations
the movement for international bimetal-
lism had not large chance of success.
He quoted from a speech Of Senator
Sherman made in 1876 to the effect
that nothing but ansact of God could des-
troy the use of both gold and silver
among the nations of mankind, and
from speech of Secretary Carlisle made
in 1873, speaking of the demon etizatlOn
of silver as the most gigantic crime OF
this or any other age. And he added
sarcastically that Mr.. Sherman in his
new position as secretary of state would
