STRIKE ON THE WASHBURN.
A Body of Solid Sylvanite Running Five
Dollars Per Pound.

A splendid strike has been made on
the Washburn mine at Sunshine, operat-
ed by Sheriff w. c. Dyer, streak of
solid sylvanite ore having been encount-
cred at depth of 50 feet. The vein is
from one to five inches wide and will run
nearly S per pound. The shaft which is
now being sunk has proved good
proposition from the start, over $500
having been netted while sinking. 1t is
proposed to start to drift this present
depth and IN view of the late find, the re-
turns will undoubtedly be phenomenal.

sugar Factories.

The citizens of Roswell are alive and
public spirited. Those enterprising men
know and understand that exemption
from taxation for a limited number of
years of sugar beet factories in the Pecos
valley is bound to bring great returns in
largely increased value of property, good
increase in population, ard in steady en-
ployment to the farmers and laboring
men of the Pecos valley. They urge up
on Councilman Curry to do his level best
in securing such exemption. See the fol-
lowing kilograms, received here to day:

SAVANNAH, June %, 81.
80. B. Odkes-The boy Ephraim, sent
you by A. p. Wetter, belongs to Mrs. Mar
garet Telfair of this city, but Mr.. Wetter
has control Of him and has sent him TO you
TO sell with the understanding that he is
not TO return to Savannah. hav declined
having anything to do with it. SO | am
free TO act as | please in the matter.
Ephraim has friends here wh) will buy
him at any price, and as he can be bought
for $1,000 or less, ] think you had better
get Mcbride or some other person to buy
him with the ostensible purpose Of sending
him to New Orleans. You will consider
me one-half interested in il, and draw on
me for half the amount you pay for him.
You must also let Ephraim know that he
is sold TO 90 to New Orleans, and give him
an opportunity OF communicating with his
friends here, but you must keep a strict
watch on him, as he can read and write
and will be certain TO get of. Attend to it
at once and let me hear from you. He
must be kept in the workhouse.
w. WRIGHT.
Later on is a record OF the sale of Eph-
rain to Mcbride, evidently a by-party to
the transaction, for only $500. What be-
came Of him afterwSrd is matter OF con-
lecture, but 1t is probable that he was sold
by Mcbride to the Savannah parties, who
were willing to pay high price for him,
the dealers dividing the profits. AntedAt-
ing the record OF the sale TO Mcbride is a
letter from John b. Kendrick of Savannah,
which reads
II hear you have a yellow boy called
Ephraim, in your possession, for sale. II
so, please inform me what price is the low
est you will take for him, and II the title is
good, and who made by Also If he is
willing to come here TO live"
Subsequently came the sale, and here
the form OF the slave disappears from sight
| forever, so far as the archives are con-
cerned. These were the palmy days of the
slave trade, but the market became over
stocked, and the boom ended in a collapse.
! Not that the murmurs of Northern anti
slavery sentiment disturbed the dealers,
but reckless speculation in human beings
was as ruinous as over-trading in horses
or cattle. The handwriting was on the
wall, but the blind slave-trader could not
read the warning A business depression
was the explanation of the low prices for
| negroes, but the question of the dealer,
"What are we all TO do?'' was soon TO be
settled outside of business conditions.

Horace w. Bailey of Newbury, state fish
the great majority Of Vermonters, recog-
nizes the unwisdom of the law permitting
deer to be killed in the state; but he thinks
there will be- comparatively little reason to
complain of its results il it is strictly en-
forced In letter 10 the Free Press Mr..
Bailey says:
Section 1870 Vermont statutes provides
that THE selectmen may appoint and re-
move at pleasure, fish and game wardens
who shall be residents Of the town" Yes,
they can appoint wardens galore one, two,
ten, twenty, as many as circumstances
appear to demand. The two following sec
tions direct how TO set the warden ma
chinery in motion, so simple that school
boy Of 10 can understand Il. In all cases
wardens are entitled TO half the fine. No
"a Of 1896 makes the penalty for killing
one hundred dollars tone half goes to COM
plainanD; add TO this the fifty dollars re-
ward offered jointly by the Fish and Game
league and fish and game commission, and
it can be readily seen that those who up
hold the law by the conviction Of deer
pirate are substantially recompensed. 1t
is not even necessary, so far as securing
one-h half of the fine and the fifty dollars
reward for the illegal killing Of deer, TO re-
sort TO the appointment of wardens for the
fine and reward GO to the complainant, or
person securing the conviction; warden or
otherwise. Do little missionary work.

w. c. It. U.
A Report of the state Convention.

The w. C. T. U. held very pleasant
and interesting meeting last Tuesday, with
a good attendance. After various matters
of local business were disposed of Mrs. w.
F. Mixer, the delegate to the late state
convention held at Essex junction, gave
an interesting account of the many good
things served up to the $50 delegates, be-
sides number of visitors from this place.
Mrs. II. Barker, national treasurer OF the
w. c. T. U. from Chicago, presented the
call from the temperance temple, and in
her talk of the work of the w. c. T. u.
referred to very beautiful picture seen in
Chicago representing the "Child Christ, :"
and the "Mother Love-" in the returning of
the wandering son. Mrs. Norton of Newfane
gave a very fine address; Mrs. |. NJ Read,
the state president, instead of reading her
address, just talked to the ladies in her
pleasant and "motherly' way, which was
an acceptable change from listening to a
lengthy written address. The reports from
the county superintendent of work were
very encouraging, showing much work
done in their line with good results.
A plan has been begun to raise 800 to
place the name of our honored state presi-
dent, Mrs. Ida NJ. Read, upon the Yer
mont tablet in the temperance temple at
Chicago. Already part of the sum has
been raised
The "Memorial Hour brought up the
names of a number of our comrades in the
state who have passed to the beyond dur
ing the last year. In this service Mrs
Mixer recited an appropriate poem. The
collection was asked for by five small
children, with very nice little speech,
each with their "empty" basket, and when
the money collected was all turned into
one little girls basket, how she shook the
basket, which brought down the house.
The singing from the quartet was ex-
cellent. The "white ribbon tea, with all
the tables trimmed with white, was very
attractive, as was also the dinner served
both days. These with all the "literary"
food served will long be remembered.
Mrs. w. F. Mixer repeated by request the
"Things in the Kee," which won for her
the medal at the medal contest held in
Bratteboro some time since. The pro-
gram for the two days of the convention
was very full and well carried out.
