DEWEY sCHOoI-HorsE

Dewey day was recently celebrated
at Montpelier, VT, that being the birth
place OF the popular hero, Admiral
Dewey On this occasion the staid old
New England town took on an air OF
youthfulness and gaiety, an order had
been issued by the local authorities
that no arrests for drunkenness were TO
be made on that day. and the populace
or the usually temperate town" felt
that for once they could "let them
selves loose" without fear of molesta-
tion and after consequences.
The drug stores did hourishing
business in the Jamaica and pear cider
line, and everyone was in a thorouehly
good humor. On one Of the streets of
Montpelier stands the old schoolhouse
which Admiral Dewey attended as a
boy, though since those days it has
passed through many vicissitudes. hav-
ing been a public school, a parochial
school, until ii finally became what IL
is at the present time, a tenement
house.
From every window Of the old build
ing on Dewey day a flag was flying
and almost the entire street was COW
cred with the stars and stripes. Early
in the morning OF this eventful day a
man was noticed coming down one OF
the principal streets OF the town carry
ing long roll Of canvas. He had at
once an air OF importance and mystery
about him, which soon drew attention
to his movements. He evidently had an
important mission to perform.
Upon being approached and asked
where he was bound for he replied:

HARMFUL HASTE.

There is growing disposition
among the street railway conductors to
swing their trolley pole clear OF the
wire at night before the passengers
have alighted,' said a responsible citi-
zen to the Wayfarer. 81 do not believe
that the management is cognizant OF II,
but, nevertheless, it Is true. At the
terminus OF a line there are usually
more passengers to get Off than at any
other place, particularly II it be in
town. As soon as the trolley pole is re-
moved from the wire the lights 90 out,
the car is left in darkness, and the
passengers stumble out as best they
can. realize that the car men have
to act quickly, but there is such a thing
as harmful haste, and this Is an exam
pie OF il which may, II Persisted in,
lead to personal injury and litigation.

years of untailing friendship and sympa-
thy in times OF troub! e;aad the sunnlest
of dispositions at all times atfOrding an
elevating influence upon all who came
within the circle, not only OF her
friendship, but extending even to the
acquai lance of the passing moment;
and
WHEREAS, There entered into her
char cter so many of those essential
graces which go to make up woman
hood of the noblest type: decision OF
character, fidelity to duty, faithful
painstaking attention to the minor
details which make or mar life, but
W r ich are so often neglected generosity
toward every worthy cause; aud
WHEREAS. Our music and literary
department has lost a faithful and de-
vo'ed advocate and student, one whose
every leisure moment was spe in &C
quiring a more extended knowledge of
all subjects which are discussed by
women and men of the highest culture
and refinement; therefore be it
Resolved, That, acknowledging the
wisdom of a divine providence which
doeth all things well, we do neverthe-
less feel that our circle has sustained
an irreparable loss, in as much as
mo life
Can be pure in its purpose and strong in its
And an life not be purer and stronger there
by"
Resolved. further, That we do strive
to emulate those sterling virtues: FL
deity, faithfulness, generosity, and
tru:hfulness, which were so pobly ex-
emplified in the life of our departed
sister.
Resolved, That we, the Ladies Saw

to her beloved sist rs our sincere SYM

deprived of the loving watchful care of
one who so many years exercised over
them a mothers care.

friends who mourn her loss as that of
one near and dear.
Res 0lved, That these resolutions be
