"COME UNTO ME.:'

Oft when the tide of life runs low,
And brain and soul are sick with doubt,
And life seems fun of grief and woe
And mocking devils jeer and fiout
| turn unto my Lord in prayer,
l know his strength than mine is best,
And 10 sweet voice thrills the air
Come unto Me, We weary laden,
And ! will give you rest"
Sometimes the night Is very dark,
The way is rough ana wounds my feet,
Ana lie lies stretched out wan and stark
The winds blow fierce and falls the slee,
! fear, and fearing, fain would fall
Beneath the shadows dire distress,
But that | hear my Savior call
Come unto Me, ye weary laden,
And | will give you rest"
And often when the waters roll
And surge and foam around me here
And threaten to engulf my soul,
Roaring and rolling swift and near,
My strongest efforts seem in vain.
How can / 'scape so hard oppressed?
Ana then l hear that voice again.
Come unto Me, We weary laden,
And / will give you rest"
Some days my burden bears me down,
] can not see the far-off skies.
The grim, gray cross obscures the crown,
And in my heart hope faints and dies,
But leaps to life when, sweet and low,
How can 'scape so hard oppressed?
These words across the silence go
Come unto Me, ye weary laden,
And / will give you rest"
Yea, Lord, | come to thee in all
The evils that affict my day,
And at thy feet repentant fall
For doubts that daunt and fears that
slay,
Give unto me, o give me more,
The strength to bear the longing best,
Extend Thy shield my face before,
For indeed am weary laden,
And come IN Thee for rest!
Hamilton Jay.

A Horrible Crime.

bridgeport, Conn. Sept. IS. The
mystery surrounding the discovery yes"
terday of the trunklcss head of mur-
dcred woman was further complicated
this morning by the finding of the miss
ing trunk at the same spot.
Every indication leads to the belief
that the trunk was placed in the water
during the night.
The remains are still unidentified. 3.
The dismemberment of the body was
surely done by an expert.
A superficial examination tends to
the belief that it was a case of NAL
practice which resulted fatally and that
the operator cut the body up to get rid
of the undertaken. The only thing that
seems to be assured is that the crime
was done in This city as the body had
not been dead long.
A team was heard to drive fast over
the bridge and back at l O'Clock this
morning. s' -s--

American retention of coaling station,
he was silent His general aspect seems
to carry the idea that the insurgents will
attempt to effect the absolute independ-
ence of the whole island, and that they
expected the Americans, having accom-
plished their mission, will withdraw.
Such will not probably be the case,
but the American commissioners will
reserve coaling station. This may in
the end result in serious friction At
any rate Admiral Dewey regards the
situation as critical and he has asked for
another cruiser and battleship.
Besides this it would not be at all
surprising if the war should be contin-
ued again for it is quite evident that the
Spanish government is as usual inclined
to haggle over the situation and all in
all it does not promise we'll for final
peace.
1t is understood that the President is
quite troubled over the matter and
although be considers that there is no
anticipation of a serions result in tie
dealings with Aguinaldo yet he has
grave doubts as to the ultimate settle
mcnt with Spain. In regard to this of
course the position OF the Insurgents
will have great bearing upon the decision
of the Spanish commissioners.

pie. Thanking You again for the honor
you have conferred upon me | will close.
Mr.. Swasey's speech was followed by
hearty and prolonged applause. The
| band next gave a selection and cigars
were passed around. after which Mr..
Mathieson again called for Judge Bar
ney. lie was not present, however, and
Solon Carpenter, representative from
Washington, was called for, but was
not present.
Byrequest the band played another
selection and then Mr. Mathicson intro
duced we'll known business man, S.
D. Allen. Mr.. Allen, in a few we'll
chosen words, congratulated Mr.. Swasey
upon his election and said it was the
duty OF every citizen to help him to in
troduce measures for the promotion of
the city's welfare. Mr.. Matheson next
introduced another well known citizen
and one w'.o has always stood by his
party through thick and thin. Mr.. Ben
Hawcs. He stated that he arose with
diilidence, but the greatness of the oc-
cason was not to be resisted. He spoke
at some length upon the growth and
prosperity Of our country and of Barre
in particular, and advocated progress
along all lines of permanent good.
Urged the people to stang by Mr..
Swasey and the good of the city regard
less of men or party. His speech was
warmly applauded and following it the
band gave another selection.
The next man introduced was young
member of the Democratic party, e..
Herbert Pape, who delivered II fine rhe-
lorical speetch eulogizing the Demo-
cratic party, which he stated Stands
for the fire, dom Of Cuba without any
enlargement of terrtory. The Republi-
can party has made a great mistake.
We don't want any more territory, and
should let the Cubans govern them
selves. The prospects of the Demo-
cratic party are bright and future VIC
tories will be won." Much applause
followed his speech.
Mr.. Mathieson then thanked the as
sembly for their kind and courteous at
tendance and generous applause, and
then introduced the last speaker; "A
well known organizer Of labor and ener-
getic member of the party, Mr.. James
Mari ~
Mr.. Mari stated that as he was the
doxology he would be brief. Would
like to call attention to the fact that the
Democrats had not had an opportunity
Of meeting on a like occasion for twenty
years. He did not consider that he was
addressing Democratic assembly, how
ever, for all parties were represented to
honor the peoples candidate. In clos
ing he called for three cheers for Mr..

GODDARD SEMINARY NOTES.

The football team was out last night
for the usual practice and the work was
made trifle harder than at any time
before this year and the new are getting
better every day. Nash and Lamb were
both absent last night so that naturally
the practice was not as beneficial as it
would have been had they been there to
take their positions. Lawson was out
for the first time and he bids fair TO be
a great Improvement over what he was
last year. Campbell was the new star
last night and if he does not prove to
be good end rush it will be great
mystery. He tackles like an old veter-
an at the game and he is anxious to
learn. Veau was out last night for the
first time and there is no doubt what
ever but that he will add a giants strength
TO the team. He will be a good man
behind the line or anywhere that it may
be necessary to put him. Tho boys
seem to be all imbucd with the idea
that they must have the state champion
ship this year and as one of them re-
marked last night "that's what we're
out here for.n

"Skins" Were "Skinned."

About $50 last night crowd of the
"true blooded sports" gathered at the
Granite City Trotting park to see the
race between Speakman of Barre and
Hart of Cambridge, who by the way is
rumored to have Urquhart for an every
day name. Mr.. Bolster objected, how
ever, and they were forced to wend
their weary way to Fairmount Park.
The distance was too much for some,
but the "true blues" all went along.
William Quinlen was starter and
White of the Montpelier Record was
stake holder and referee, At the crack
of the pistol the two sprintcrs got away
beautifully. Speakman took IL three
yard lead to the half and then slowed for
Urquhart, allowing him to come up. At
the line Sprakman went over with
some fifteen inches lead and won the
race and the 500 purse,
IL there are any more professional
dark horses in this part Of the country
who have money to lose they had better
come to the Granite City and race
Speaknan.
1t is rumored by those who claim to
know that the several new racers who
have been in events in this part of the
country lately are ''crooked" profession
ais under cover. They claim that Prof.
Rice of bicycle noloriety in Mortified
is John Nolan from the "wolly vest
and Crawford is credited as being Fred
Briton who has been operating in the
southern part of this state, having APP
peared in several races against local
sprinters and winning "hands down..
Barre however seems to be rather too
fast II place for him.

Speaker Reed has again demonstrated
his strength and capacity as leader. He
knew that Tillman and his co-iingoists
in the senate would add clause to the
senate resolutions recognizing the so-
called government Of cuba. The house
was accordingly adjourned over until
Monday. thus preventing any concurrent
action on the resolution until the senate
had rested over a day and realized the
effect on the country Of its buncomD
proceedings When the house conyenes
tomorrow the conference committee will
probably strike out the recognition clause.
and the resolution will be adopted sub

Is Indicative Of the highest training in

always been held in high esteem by other
