FRIDAY, DECEMBER %, 1898.

AS "misery loves company" it may be
some consolation to the large number of
our citizens who during the past week
have been stricken with more or less
severe cases of the grip to know that the
whole East is suffering with them.
Here in Addison county we have had
a particularly mean lot of weather, a
sudden change from Klordike frigidity
to spring-like warmth, giving us all a
good excuse for looming down" with
the prevailing malady. But reports
from all sections of New England and
the South Atlantic states indicate an
epidemic of influenza not attributable TO
the weather. The number of cases in
Washington city is said to be so great
as to interfere with the working of the
departments of government. The health
board of New Y ork has decided that the
grip is contagious and the numerous
cases in that city will be treated as
such.

ANOTHER CABINET CHANGE.

Secretary of the Interior Bliss has re-
signed the portfolio of the interior de-
partment of the government. 1t is said
that the president relied greatly on his
good Judgment in the cabinet and offered
every argument of national need and
personal friendship to cause the with
drawal of his resignation, without effect.
Mr.. Bliss pleaded the demands of his
private business.
The vacancy thus created has been
filled by the appointment of Hon. Ethan
Allen Hitchcock of st. Louis. Concern
ing Mr.. Hitchcock's ancestry we copy
the following from the Burlington Free
Press:
Hon. Ethan Allen Hitchcock of st. Louis at
present United States minister to Russia, who
has been appointed secretary of the interior
to succeed Secretary Bliss, resigned, is q
great grandson of the hero of TiconderOga.
His grandfather, Judge Samuel Hitchcock,
married Lucy Caroline, the second daughter
of Gen. Ethan Allen, their marriage being the
first one recorded in the town records of Bur
lingtOn. Judge Hitchcock was an eminent
NermOnter; represented Burlington i've
times in the legislature between 1853 and 1873,
|
mont; was one of its first board of trustees
and its first secretary attorney general
of Vermont 1890 80; and in the latter year
was appointed United States Judge for the
district of Vermont, which office he held until
his death IN ISIS. The house in which he lived
and died is still standing, and in good condi
ton, on the southwest corner of Main and
Pine streets, in tuis city. In this house his
widow also died, after her return from Ala
bama. Their tombstones are in the Elmwood
Avenue cemetery.
Henry Hitchcock, the eldest son of Judge
Samuel Hitchcock, graduated from the Uni.
versity of Vermont in 1911 and taught school
for a time in small brick schoolhouse on
St. Paul street. He studied law with the late
Charles Adams, and after admission to the
bar, went to Mobile, in what was then called
Mobile territory, now the state of Alabama.
He was a prominent lawyer, the first secre.
tary of the territory; later attorney general
of the state of Alabama, and still later chief
justice of that state. His younger brother,
Ethan Allen Hitchcock, graduated at West
Point, and was major general in the civil
war. Henry Hitchcock married a Miss Erwin,
daughter of a Tennessee planter. Ethan
Allen Hitchcock, their second son, the newly
appointed member of President McKinley's
cabinet, was born in Mobile IN 1885. After his
fathers death in 1889, his mother returned TO

BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.
From Wednesdays Boston journal

As usual the week before Christmas there
is a light trade in butter, and no new fea-
lures have been developed. Receipts are
quite moderate and prices are steady and
very little change Is expected until after The
turn of the year. The situation is considered
healthy, and at present values the indications
are that there will be Il good cleaning up,
but any attempt to force an advance would
be resisted by buyers and perhaps tend to a
curtailment of production
The ruling rate yesterday for fresh west
ern ane northern in regular trade lots was
20ls to 81 cents. few fancy lots run up to
2l55 cent?, but these were distributed to
customers in small way and could hardly
be considered fair basis of values for the
bulk of the offerings. Very few receivers
gave more than p cents as the top price for
the day. Boxes sold at PIX to p cents, but
the quality had 10 be fine to bring the out
side rate. Owing to the advent of Christmas
a slow trade was expected during the re.
mainder of the week.
The cheese market was very quiet yester
day, bnt the tone was as strong as ever, and
the general feeling was that prices would be
higher after the close of the year. This is
based on the small stocks in all parts of the
United States, Canada and in England. Sales
have been at l0H TO IL cents, but holders
are asking ~ to llS cents for fancy twins,
and II would be hard to buy much at the
inside rate
Fresh eggs were in good demand, and
prices ruled firm on a basis of 26 to p cents
for choice fresh Michigan and Northern In
diana and Ohio and p to % cents for other
western. Really desirable eggs are hard to
find. writer IN Nebraska says that "eggs
never were so scarse here since hens were
created as at present" Fresh eastern com
mand 20 to 2s cents, and fancy new laid go
higher RefTigerators have been selling the
past few days at Is to 10 cents, and choice
spring lots We're very firm yesterday at 10
cents, with an upward tendency.
There was moderate demand for turkeys
yesterday, with sales of choice western at
IL to IL cents and northern at IA to 10 cents.
The rain and liberal receipts made buyers
cautious, but receivers were not disposed to
make concessions as they thought prices
low enough. Chickens and fowls duh at !
to 10 cents for most offered. Ducks and geese
to 10 cents.

Two PoNreo QUESTIONS ANSWERED

What is the use of making a better ar
ticle than your competitor if you can not
get better price for it?
Ans.--As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better,
so that while our profits may be smaller
on a single sale they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to be
tried and the public will very quickly
pass judgement on them and use only
the better one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended up
on. They may occasionally take up with
some fashionable novelty put forth with
exaggerated claims, but are certain to re-
turn to the one remedy that they know
20 be reliable, and for coughs, colds and
Group there is nothing equal to Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. For sale by DR..
