The new models in children's gar.

In a great variety Of all wool and silk
and wool fabrics. The poplins, too, are
very popular this season, with great
diversity of colors and designs in the
plaids and all the pretty plain colors
from which to choose. These, saws a
writer in the New York Sun, make
pretty, dressy gowns for the older girls,
and velvet, lace and silk are used in the
trimming. Brown and blue. green and
red, are the favorite dark colors and
with plain skirts. little bolero Jackets
of velvet to match, trimmed with lit
tie cream lace or fancy braid, and
frightened up by a stock collar of
bright plaid silk, the effect is very
pretty. Narrow velvet ribbon in black.
in the same color as the poplin, is also
used for trimming.
Corduroy, velveteen. rep materials
and plain cloths and serges are also EN-.
ployed in the Juvenile outfit. Plaids.
however, make the most desirable school
dresses, as they do not show every pnr.
ticle of dust. The blouse is the prevail.
ing style Of bodice for this material,
and it is sometimes made with tucked
yoke of plain cashmere which matches
some dark color in the plaid.
The skirts are gored in front and in
some instances little Mt the side, but
usually they are cut in straight breadths.

A Point of National Honor,

In speech last week, delivered in
the city of New York, at the meeting
of the National Association of Manu-
facturers, President Mckinley, in the
subjoined extracts from his speech,
sounded The keynote of the coming can
vass for members of the House of Rep
resentatives in the fifty-siXth Congress,
and for the greater canvass, in 1900,
for determining again, and for settling
beyond revival, the kind of money that
shall constitute the national currency,
and in which the national obligations
shall be paid
There is another duty resting upon
the national government - to coin
money and regulate the value thereof.
This duty requires that our government
shall regulate the value of its money
by the highest standards of commercial
honesty and national honor. The
money of the United States is and must

the Messenger adds the logic of the sit
uation, and there lie no answer 10 its
presentation of the matter except that
which has been made, to wit, "fiddle-
sticks" or dull and labored effort to
give reasons for that in which there is
no reason. All this is threshing over
very old straw. The conclusion of this
whole matter may be found in estimat-
lag the probability that any one of the
supporters of the existing basis of rep
resentation in the popular branch OF
the State Legislature, commissioned in
this last decade Of a century of devel-
opment in the forms and principles of
government by the people to con-
struct a system of representation for
this territory of Vermont, would APP
portion representation on the plan this
State is adbering to to-day. Any man
80 executing commission of this kind
would be held to be a most proper SUBJ
iect for the imbecile ward il the asy-
lum at Waterbury. Not one OF these
defenders of the town system of repre-
sentation, to the credit of his sanity be
il said, but what would begin his work
by making people, not dirt, the basis of
apportionment. On this basis he would
begin to plan, by the division of the
State into districts, to secure the clos
est attainable equality in representa-,
ton. Here is an all sufficient answer
to the wriggling attempts to justify
what is unjusti6able; to defend an ex'
listing thing as right on the theory OF
the fatalist that "whatever is, is right
and therefore to stick and hang to un'
righteousness and magnify it as the
chief stone of the corner in the temple
of representative government.

ed against the United States If war
with Spain should come out of Cuban
complications, or if war should be
forced upon this nation by any other
power, may be forestalled by that "pre-
paredness for war" counseled by Cap.
tain Mahan, and which-thanks to the
patriotic action of Congress-the coun-
try for some years has been making.
But preparedness for war exists in the
cultivation of patriotic citizenship, as
well as in coast defenses and battle
ships. To wisdom pertains the "eter-
nal forethought" that shall prevent
war by preparation for conflict that is
not altogether physical.

FOR some weeks Vermont has been

some that will be shot before the open

the political skies, arresting the eyes OF
the curious and filing impressible OBJ

IN the second congressional district,
the candidacy of Hon. Frank Plumley
of Mortified, and Hon. l.. M. Read of
Bellows Falls, for the Office Of Repre-
sentative, is formally announced. Ad-
vices from Washington indicate that
General Grout, like Judge Powers, his
colleague, will again seek a nomination.
If there is to be contest in this dis.
trict, let us have one that means bust
ness, the candidates standing up to
each other till the finish on the floor of
the convention. No more nascoes like
that of 1896.
THE Teller concurrent resolution,
declaring that the national Indebtedness
is payable in standard silver dollars, in
the option of the government, which
passed the Senate last week, was
knocked in the head on Monday, in the
House of Representative, by the de-
cisive vote of 1872 nays to 1872 yeas,
practically strict party vote. This is
the Republicans quick answer to the
Presidents bugle call to his party to
stand up for sound money and the ma
tional honor. The Organizing of the
Democratic party is complete.

SOUTHERN NOTES" another inter-

is printed on page two of this issue of

Gently spent several weeks in the ex-

and keen delineator of what he OBJ
serves. 1t is interesting to note how
the South of the present day appears to
the eyes of Northern man of this
stamp. Mr.. Chaplin could undoubtedly
present many things from his expe-
riences and the results of his observa-
tions that would interest Vermont peo-
Pile. The WATCHMAN readers will be
pleased to hear further from him.

A WASHINGTON dispatch reports a
gain for the Hawaiian treaty of annexa-
ton, Sin the partial promise of Sena-
tor Morrill, that he will abstain from
voting against annexation" If Sena-
tor Morrill's matured conviction is that
the ratification of the treaty is not de-
srable, he should vote against it. The
WATCHMAN believes that the majority
of the people of Vermont would prefer
that the Senator should not only alb
stain from voting against annexation,
but should vote for it, thereby repre-
senting the largest share OF public
opinion among his constituents, and
sustaining the st. Louis platform and
the recommendation of President Nc
Kinley in relation to the Hawaiian
islands. If, however, the venerable
Senator's judgment is adverse to an
nexation, Vermont will respect his con
illusions. -

JOSEPH LETTER of Chicago is the
possessor of some 100000 bushels of
wheat, if the statements of the young
mans holdings are correct, as they are
believed to be. The price OF wheat
last week was fifteen cents above the
average price paid by young Letter.
AT that time the value of his holdings
was 50, $50 900 greater than the cost.
He seems to be the owner of about all
the wheat in sight. Unless all the
signs of the times fail, when he sells he
is likely to roll in the wealth of his
profits. The young man lost in specu-
lations the first million dollars his father
gave him, report says. Wheat appears
to be better crop than wild oats.

discussion, l think, in the city of Port

Tidings From MT Emmons.

The NEWS has published several let ters from H. F. Emmons who left Ct. Harrington last February with party of gold hunters bound for the Copper River country. That expedition has been abandoned, as will be seen by the following extract from personal letter written from Juneau. Alaska, Nov. IA, by Mir Emmons to s. c. Beckley:
 "Well. I am still heating and poking my feet under the table three times a day. stopping in this city short time as re from hard summers work in 8 pleasant country rich in natural scenery, of g healthy climate, and filled with game, but utterly devoid of gold !; consequently the Taylor party has dis banded with Taylor, Clark and Abbott goue home. I will remain here and go in from this point where wanted to start from last Spring but Taylor and his majority voted to go into Copper River country, and the minority had to follow; but that country is dead fail | ure. Big finds are in grasp of me here | and feel confident shall be in Canaan before thIs time in 1899 with gold enough to blockade the Consolidated railroad"
 From another letter written by MT Emmons to friend in Canaan the editor of the NEWS learns that MT Emmons is temporarily working at his trade of tin ner at Juneau, but intends to locate mining claims in that country and pros pect when the season opens.

Eye Massage.

Whenever your organs of sight feel weak, do not claw at them with the knuckles, so to express it. You must not massage your eyes the same way you would the stronger parts of the body. They need help from the hands, but this help must be administered in a very gentle and delicate method.
 John Quincy Adams had way of treating his eyes, which, it is said, preserved their vision to old age, with out the help of spectaoles
 This was to place his thumb and fore finger each upon an eyelid and gently rub them toward the nose a number of times each day. The action encourages circulation of blood in that locality, does away with the tiny spots that sometimes float before the vision and prevents that flattening of the lenses which causes dimness of sight at cer- tain focus.
 It is wonderful how much good can be done the eyes of people of all ages by using this simple exercise 10 or 15 min- utes each day.
 If you are where it may not be con- venient to measure time, as in the dark, it is we'll to count the number of passet made by the fingers over the eyes until you have reached the number that you have demonstrated by experiment that time will allow.-New York Ledger.

THE STORM AT HOME.

The first snow of the season began falling last Thursday morning about 9 o'clock. There was a fall of inches. On Friday cutters were running in the streets. On Saturday some snow fell but the mercury was down to 150 above zero. Snow began falling again Satur- day night and was followed by terrific wind which blew all day Sunday drift ing the snow already on the ground and which was added to by two or three small falls during the day.
 freight train on the Berkshire Di- vision left here at 9.15 Saturday night and was b.ockaded at Orange and did not reach New Haven until Monday. Owing to the main line of the N. Y, N. H. &H. being badly blockaded DO Sunday train north was sent out from Bridge port, The first train north since Satur- day night at 2 o'clock reached here at 11.30 a. m. Monday and that was spec ial passe ger sent out from New Mil ford. Nearly all the south bound trains left here on time both Sunday and Monday. The first mail from the south reached us at ? p. m. Monday.
 On the F., R. & N. E. road no at tempt was made to move trains on Sun- day. On Monday morning they sent g snow blow out from Hartford which reached here at 8.30 a. m. and got as far as Ore Hill where a freight engine was stuck in drifted cut. The passen- ger train from Hartford due here at 1924 was nearly on time and went through to Ore Hill from whence they returned to Hartford. Conductor Col Her and his train got through to Mil lerton and came back through here about o'clock bound for Hartford. The train from Poughkeepsie due at 12.3S got here about 2 o'clock.
 The wagon roads, with the exception of one or two cross roads, were not bad ly blocked and were soon opened.
 Not in the memory of the oldest in- habitant has the first storm of the sea- son been so severe or caused such de- lay in traffic.
 Snow began falling again in the night of Tuesday and fell till about 9.30 yesterday morning. The south bound freight was anulled at Falls Vil- lage and the locomotive used in con- junction with the south bound passen- ger which left there shortly after 10 o'clock. No north bound trains reach ed here until o'clock in the afternoon owing to freight train being derailed in the snow near Botsford.

When Shafter was senior colonel of the army, he was temporarily in charge of some western post and numbered in his command an exceedingly bright, ca- pablo fellow whose cleverness was con- tinually getting him the nonoommission stripes and whose escapades were just as frequently getting him reduced to the ranks. One day this soldier turned up at Shafter's quarters with a long face and applied for leave to attend the funeral of his mother, who had died the previous night, he said, in the town. The request was granted, but later on, in looking over the same records, the colonel discovered that the same man had been granted leave the month before on the identical pretext. Shafter said nothing, but a couple of days afterward encountered the bereaved warrior on parade ground. Look here, my man, " said Pecos Bill solemnly, "I want to ask you a question. Were you good to that mother of yours while she was alive?'
 "Well, sir-yes, sir-that is. hope SOY" stammered the culprit, not know ing. what was coming.
 "I hope so, too, replied the colonel. 'I've heard of mothers dying for their sons, but never of one dying twice in 80 days for one. You may go in mourn ing for month-at the guardhouse. " New Orleans Times-Democrat.
