Fort Ethan Allen Received Orders.

Orders we're received at the military post
Saturday afternoon from Gen. Miles, COM
manding United States regular army, for the
third cavalry to start for the national camp at
Chickamauga at the earliest possible moment.
The order included practically the entire
command but squad of men and one officer
probably Lieut.. Heard as quartermaster-
will remain at the military post to guard the
property. The officers wives will of course
remain at the Fort
Chickamauga by way of the Rutland railroad.
The third cavalry has never seen service in
the tropics, of course, but it served for IA
years on the Mexican frontier, which might
be supposed to pretty thoroughly acclimate
them. The regiment is in frst-cass condi-
ton in every respect. and if it really goes to
Cuba it will be sure to give coed account of
itself.

WHEN you ARE OLD.

When you are old and gray and full of sleep
And nodding by the fire, take down this book
And slowly read and dream of the fair look
Your eyes had once and of their shadows deep.
How many loved your moments Of glad grace
And loved your beauty with love false OF
true,
But ono man loved the pilgrim soul in you
And loved the sorrows of your changing face
And, bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmured a little sad, "From us fled love-"
He paced upon the mountains far above
and hid his face amid crowd of stars.

FIRE HORSES.
The Quickest Ones In the World Arc Said :
to Be In Kansas City.


to Be In Kansas City.
F. S. Dellenbaugh writes Of "The
Quick Horse" in St. Nicholas, his.
article telling Of the training of horses
for the fire department.. Mr.. Dellen-,
baugh says:
The quickest horses in the world were
at one time in Kansas City at the head
quarters OF its fire department, directly
under the Office of the chief, Mr.. George
Q Hale. To Mr.. Hale's genius more
than to any other factor the quick horse
owed his first development, for Mr..
Hale is the inventor of the earliest
swinging harness which made the
quick horse possible. When Mr.. Henry
M. Stanley and his wife were in this
country, they witnessed an exhib ition
drill of the Kansas City fire department. 1
The drill so impressed the visitors that
an account of it was published in Lon
don Journal and this English article
brought an invitation to Mr.. Hale to
visit England as the representative Of
the American fire service at the interna-
tional fire tournament. Mr.. Hale and /
a picked corps went to England, TAX

horses Joe and Dan, and they became
world famous. AS the quickest harness
ing time Of the London fire brigade is
minute Tx seconds and the Kansas
City horses were harnessed in IL Sec
onds and were out of the engine house
in less than s seconds, there could be no
competition. In Kansas City four fine
bays were harnessed to the hook and
ladder truck almost as quickly as even
Joe and Dan could jump into their har-
nesses. 1t was a pretty sight to see these
four we'll kept horses spring to their
places at the stroke of the gong and in
two or three seconds stand ready to run
with the apparatus. Joe was killed by
an accident, but Dan, with new mate,
is still in service, and as quick as ever.
The record for quickest time from the
engine house to the throwing of water
on the fire is held by Kansas City
company. In this instance the horses
were harnessed, run of 2, 1914 feet "a
little less than half a mile) was made,
and water thrown from the hose in the
wonderfully brief time of l minute 81 "a
seconds.

The Haitian Generals Glass Eye.

A Haitian general having lost an eye
In battle sent to Paris for an artificial
one. The maker sent in return one of
his best. Shortly after the general re-
turned it, with the remark that the eye
was too yellow and recalled to his mind
the Spanish flag, adding at the same
time that he would wear only an eye
having the colors Of his own country.
The maker thereupon made one with
red and green predominating, these be
ing the Haitian oolors. This so pleased
the general that instead of wearing the
eye as originally intended he added it

New Bedford Calls on Governor for Detail
of State Police.

In anticipation of trouble when the mills
closed Thursday night, Mayor Ashley of
New Bedford sent message to Gov. VOL
colt asking that detail Of state police be
sent to New Bedford to assist the city force
in handling the crowds which assemble
about the mill gates at the hour of closing,
and which, in the mayors opinion, have
become threatening. A reply was received
from Gov. Wolcott, very promptly, stating
that squad of officers would START for New
Bedford at II 80 o'clock. Nothing oc-
Cured in the forenoon to disturb the
order of the city. The factories opened at
the usual hour and many operatives went
in. Groups of strikers Kissed and jeered
the workers but there was no other demon
stration.
As result of Mayor Ashley's request
upon Gov. Wolcott, 43 of the state police,
in full uniform. under command of Chief
Wade, arrived in New Bedford Friday
afternoon. Their presence, coupled With
the increased exertions of the local police
and the mayors proclamation to the
strikers, had quoting effect upon the
noisy crowds and there were no demon
STATIONS at any of the mills.

A Vermonter Who Gained Distinction In the
South,

Rev. Dr. j. Avery Shepherd, the oldest
Epi. copal minister in California and one OF
the best known churchmen on the Pacific
coast, died at Santa Rosa on the 80 h of
1916, and was of the family of
Holland Weeks, who came from Connecticut
to Salisbury in 1888, floating his household
goods on Otter Creek from Pittsford. His
maternal ancestors we're descendants OF John
Alden, the Pilgrim
in Montgomery, Ala, when the civil war
broke out, and such was his position with the
public that there was an interruption of only
ten days of the school during the entire war
1t has been wrongly stated that Dr. Shepherd
administered the oath of Office to President
Davis What he did do was to act as chap
lain in the confederate congress then in ses-
sion at the time when President Davis inau-
gural was delivered, the ministers of the
place taking turns in this service each day
Near the close of the war the federal army
in their march had sacked and burned Selma
and Columbus, resulting in fearful destruc-
ton OF lives and property. For week be-
fore their arrival at Montgomery DIR. Shep-
herd had been busy eptrs ating his acquain'
tapces to receive the federal forces with
civility at least. The mayor and council,
with committee of citizens, including Or.
Shepherd, who carried flag OF truce, met
the army, surrendered the city and asked
their protection. This action saved their city
from the fate Of others. That flag of truce,
just strip of white cotton cloth nailed to a
whitfield pine stick, was the last flag OF truce
used in the confederate war.
With keen eye for business DR.. Shepherd
turned all his confederate money into cotton,
grain and other staple commodities, and at
the close of the war found himself with a
competence. He returned to California i'll
1876 and became rector of the church of the
Incarnation at Santa Rosa. retiring four years
ago as rector emeritus.-Middlebury Registe
