Wards Sudden Departure.
w. II. Gladding's Drug Clerk
Leaves Town Without Giving
Notice.

Henry Ward, drug clerk for W. II
Gladding, left town this morning very
suddenly without giving his employer
any notice. 1t is thought he took the
s. 10 train on the G. V. II. Il. for Derby
Line.
At the City Hotel an EVENING TE!E-
GRAM reporter was informed that DR..
J. G. Mcdonald the eye specialist of
Derby Line had been in the city Satur-
day evening and had engaged Ward to
work for him he had left this morning
for the doctors home.
When the reporter asked Mr.. Glad
ding about the matter he said that his
clerk had not iven him.'notice of his lcav-
ING and rather doubted the correctness
of the story. lie however acknowledge
ed that Ward did not open the store
Sunday morning and had not put in an
appearance this morning and said he
could not account for it.
Upon inquiry at his boarding place it
was learned that he notified his landlady,
Mrs. Nj. Zotlman, that he was to leave
this morning. He owed her $500 but
promised to pay her soon. lie left u
few of his clothes in his room and said
that his wife, who is teaching school at
Montpelier Junction, would get them.
A little later in the morning the re-
porter learned that for the last week or
so Mr.. Gladdiny has missed small sums
of money ut various times but could not
account for it. One day he missed S3
Whc tn reporter saw Mr.. Gladding the
second time and asked if he had missed
any money he would neither deny nor
confirm it. He said Ward had gone
and the circumstances would be known
later. 1t is probable that papers will
be made out for Wards arrest this af-
tcrnOon.
Ward was formerly travelled for
DR.. Messcr the eye specialist and Mr..
Gladding employed him upon Messcr's
recommendation. He began work here
two weeks ago tomorrow and signed
u contract with Mr.. Gladdng for one
year, 50 it is stated.

On the Corner.

! The cry which attracted the attention Of
the Inspector last night as | was passing
near the granite street bridge and | soon
learned that the Club were fleeing from
! The vicinity of the house of Joe Broggi
where they had been endcavoring to
have Il meeting, as the police had just
entered the neighborhood and the MEM
bcrs of son the Corner fearing arrest,
were fastening in double quick order
toward the centre Of the city, rs they
/ hurried past me, ] discovered that it
was INV old friends of the Club, and |
! lost no time in following the flying
crowd, they went post haste to the cellar
Of the new Morse block, and | was soon
inside the cellar stairs partition, where
| had no difficulty in hearing the entire
conversation. The opening subject was
the purchase of Chemical fire engine
by the city government, and most OF the
crowd seemed to favor it, although the
Boss protested against any such foolish
expenditure Of money, as he claimed
thai already the taxpayers of the city
under the present rule were growing
roundshouldercd with taxes, and that he
would act like Gar Reed and eXpell
any member who dared vote to have the
City Council purchase any such lux,
ury Us the Boss said the Chemical engine
would be. Now while the Inspector
wrowls about taxes as much as any one
yet tho suggestion with a few of the
"brainy9" members of the club, that the
city buy chemical engine is indeed one
which the Inspector can cheerfully in
dorse as it is certainly very much need
ed in the city. But it will fear be like
the "lclter which never came" Better
sell that wonderful steam engine ant
that "up TO date cage" and take the
money and purchase Chemical engine
What says the Critic to this scheme
Come wake up you wonder.
Then came another question by tho
club which related to the ownership o.
the so called city park. Some members
of the Club undertake to claim that tho
city had no deed of it and that the LAND
still belonged to the Methodist society
which once had a church building on tho
lot. But the Boss who knew more law
than the rest of the gang or at least he
told them he did, and of course that set
tied it, informed the members present
that the city was today the owners Of the
lot and could not be disturbed in the
ownership, for he claimed that the city
if they never had deed, still having
held the lot by adverse possession OF
prescription, or some other old thing,
By some Kind of name, was the owner
OF the whole thing, and before the Boss
finished he grew so eloquent that it was
necessary for the Secretary of the Club
to pull the string and have the Head
Kicker, the general Of the Army take
his seat. Being hungry that deer keep
er was sent ont for 'dogs' and after
they had been rclishcd, the band played
on the pans, the pie from the lunch
wagon was passed, and each of the club
went out to talk county politics and
write letters to the War Board, little
dreaming that all this had been seen and
heard by the local successor of "Old
Slcuth,' Inspector.

of her discourse laying much stress up
on the patience for which Mr.. Aldrlch

pecially during his last illness lie learn
ed all that the Angel of patience had
to teach although many of his dearest
hopes miscarried he bore his trials With
out complaint.
His boeily infirmity was spoken OF as
one of his great trials in that it made II
impossible for him to carry out many
good works which otherwise would
have been accomplished. His dear ones,
q nccc, Il nephew add two cousins pre-
coded him to Heaven, yet out OF thus
he wrought patience and never lost faith
in the good Father who wounds but to
heal:
The speaker told of many of Mr.. AL
drich's good works that were known to
her aud said that those who have known
him better will recall many other things
She referred to his ready aid to the
Barre Academy, his labors for Goddard
Seminary, and his devotion 10 the church
each one of which he was at one time
intimately connected, and said that ii
was a source of joy that his last bcne
faction was not limited to any sect bu
went out AS Il great good of which al
may receive the benefit.
She paid high tribute to his industry
integrity, and generosity of which those
who dealt with him are cognizant.

nenmodium for Hay.

SuppOsing the seed TO haye been
sown in April. the first cutting may be
looked for about the last week OF July.
If considerable crabgrass is mixed
with II. IL will be a benefit rather than
otherwise, for the desmodium Is apt to
grow with rather large, coarse stalks
the first year. and the crabgrass will
help to keep them smaller.
Leave the cut grass about half day
to wilt, then haul 10 the barn. First
place a layer two feet deep on the floor.
then lay rails across, resting on the
logs-supposing il is a log barn-then
another layer of hay. then more rails,
and so on to the top Of the barn. II
will generally keep well, ds the layers
of hay in drying will shrink down be-
low the rails, leaving air spaces.
Leave the stubble about six inches
long, and 1t will send up shoots at
once for the second crop. which will.
or may be made, a better one than the
first. The stems will be smaller, and
the harvesting in September will be in
drier weather, when the hay can be
secured in better condition.
The first crop may have rather thick
stems, some of them perhaps as large
as lead pencil. But If run through
a Baldwin fodder cutter and reduced TO
one-inch lengths, 1t will be eaten up TO
the last piece; that Is, If cured bright
and with its natural sweetness not
washed out of it by exposure to rains
In haying time. The hay may be
somewhat dusty; if so, II should be
sprinkled a little when fed to horses.
but for cattle this is not necessary.

The Clothing Store of Messrs.

Open on Monday Night.

Last Monday night the store house of
Harnan & Bottimore was broken into
and about twenty pairs of pants, and
coats and 3 pairs of shoes taken.
The thief entered by breaking a hole
in the glass in one of the front doors.
The cash drawer, which contained a
small amount of money, was not dis
turbed Mr.. Geo. r. Surface and two of his
guests heard a sound like breaking
glass. and Mr.. Surface got up, thinking
lamp chimney had buast some where
in the house. He looked up and down
the street, but saw no one. This was
about a. m. Mrs. Kroll, who is visi
ting her father, T. G. Witten, was up
with her baby some time during tho
night and while up heard a sound like
shivering glass, aud thought it some
ones window. She does not know
what time this was. Several people
were on the Street late at night, but
saw nor heard nothing. The theft was
committed late at night, evidently be-
tween two and four o'clock.
At present writing there is no
clue to the thief. The supposition is
that the theft was. committed by some
one who does not live here. Every eff
fort will be made to bring the burglar

Sheep on tho Clearing.

Wherever woodland is cleared flock
of sheep is extremely valuable to keep
the cleared soil from being overgrown
with bushes, weeds and shrubs which
usually come up in the following years,
says the "Cultivator." 1t Is desirable to
get the cleared land In grass as soon as
possible When 1t is once seeded down
it may be pastured with sheep all
through the summer, not only without
injuring the grass. but positively bene-
fitting it, as the sheep will devote most
of their time to trimming down the
bushes and eating the leaves which
shade the land. To make more thor
ough destruction of the shrubbery, an
excess of sheep should be put In the
cleared lot, and these must be fed some
grain, so as to make their browse diet
digest better.

A Warm Meeting at Pulaski on
Monday.
A special on Monday from Pulaski to
the Richmond Dispatch says: There
was joint discussion here today (Coun-
ty Court day. between Rhea and Walk
er, Democratic and Republican confires-
sional candidates, respectively. Walker
led off in a one hour and forty minutes
speech. Rheasfollowed in the same
time. Then came Walker in thirty min
utes and Rhea in thirty minutes. In
his first speech General Walker dis
cussed the tariff and the currency, say
ing that politics meant the greatest
good to the country and to each voter,
and each voter shonld consult his per-
sonal interests in voting. That was
practical politics, not sentiment. He
made strong speech for his side.
General Walker had been introduced
by III. Peyton Gray in three minutes
speech. Rhea was given rousing re-
ception by the Democrats. He discuss
ed ably the issues of the day, especially
the currency question and the war.
He dissected Walkers political record
elaborately aud severely, including his
application for pardon after the war and
the admissions therein. Rhea's speech
was powerful and received the loud ap-
plause of the Democrats Walker. in
reply stated that Rhea's discussion of
his record was not political, but an in
sulting attack upon him personally
under the guise of politics. and he
would reply accordingly, and discuss
Rhea's record and personal character,
which he did in an abusive mannec
Several times Rhea arose and pronounce
ed the chsrges repeated by Walker,
"a lie, especially the one that he hal
ever been goldbug. Walker ordered
Rhea not to interrupt him, but TO sit
down, which Rhea refused to do, and n
personal encounter seemed imminent.
But cooler men on both sides interfered
and order was restored.
Rhea in his reply met Walker S char
ges against him, and replied in kind in
the severest manner. He asked all who
intended to vote for him to hold up
