There were three serious casualties in
Randolph Saturday. Lysander Battles was
assisting in unloading a threshing machine
at North Randolph when the separator fell

woman, was thrown from her carriage in
the afternoon, fracturing her collar bone.

Addison County Fair Premiums.

The patrons of the Addison county fair
are receiving only - per cent. of their
premium money which was awarded at the
last fair. The association claims that the
lowering of the admission fee to % cents
by the executive board was in part the rea-
son for the receipts falling off so materi-
ally: also that the attendance, except the
second day, was below the average, and
that in consequence they were obliged to

The New York Central railroad com
pany has recently issued 500, 600, 900 of
bonds, payable in 100 years. with interest
at 81 per cent. The Chicago and North
western, Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul,
Illinois Central and Lake Shore companies
have made similar refunding issues this
year. The aggregate Of the bonded debts
of the railways OF this country alone eX-
ceeds the amoudt of gold coin in the world
1t is a common falacy of those who con-
tend that the supply of gold is insufficient
to allow of worldwide use of the gold
standard to point to all of these debts as
proof that the supply of gold is inadequate
to meet them. But gold is never wanted
for them. When they mature they are
paid in kind. They are simply certificates
of a certain interest in the properties. From
now as long as human nature is what it Is
there will be people who prefer a certain
fixed and small revenue in these properties
without management, and there will be
others who will prefer to take the chances
of profit and loss with management, and
these two classes naturally divide the own
ership of railways as bondholders and
stockholders. To figure up these bonds
and forecast the amount of gold required
on given day to meet them is an absurd
ity. The gold unit named in them is simp-
ly the standard by which the property is
measured.

\ trial which has been watched by the
whole country has resulted in disagree
ment of the jury at Glenyille, West Nir-
cinia. The defendant was Mrs. Akin
son, wife of the governor of the state. She
was charged with for-ing the name of her
former husband, the late Judge Camden,
to papers after his death. Her defence
was that she signed the papers at his
dictation, and she made an excellent APP
pearance on the stand. She is woman
of striking beauty and of unusual ability.
The question was discussed at length as to
whether her husband would pardon her in
case she was convicted. 1t is believed
that the case will not cone to trial again.

the husband Of Amelie Riyes, has been in
the Bloomingdale asylum six months as
patient. He was educated at Rugby and
Columbia, is a lawyer by profession, with
an income of $50, 600 a year, and is widely
known as an art patron. He married Miss
Rives after her novel, THE Quick or the
Dead" made its great sensation. They
were the most talked of couple in the
country when they went abroad on their
honeymoon in 1SSS. They separated af
ter three years and Mrs. Chanler secured "A
divorce in a mysterious manner, and in
the winter of 1896 was married to Prince
Troubetskoy. 1t happens, strangely, that
the Princess is also mental wreck and
she has recently received treatment in a
Philadelphia sanitarium. She comes of
an old Virginia family and was educated
in part in France, while her grandfather

Do You Use It?

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
If you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use
