Sugg SITS W rk Fer Them.

A meeting OF the committee on Teach
ers' Reading Circles, elected at the last
meeting of the Chittenden County Teach
ers' association, was held at Essex juno
ton on Saturday, This committee rec
ommends that town superintendents, or,
in case they can not act, school principals

study of Howland's practical Hints for
Teachers" or Miss Arnold's "Waymarks
for Teachers" as seems most suitable.

Lumber Growing Less

The Lock Haven Express says:
A gentleman who has been travel
ing through the up-river lumber
regions says that lumber is growing
scarce in the Clearfield region, and
there are now only a few large un-
broken tracts. These will be clear
ed and the lumber manufactured at
sawmills erected i'll the woods. The
building of the new railroad sixteen
miles in length will open up the
lumber region of Southern Clear
field and give all outlet for both coal
and lumber. The latter will be
sawed in the forest.
Next spring the drive above the
mouth of the Sinnemahoning will
consist of about thirty million feet
of logs and will be the last drive
from that region. There will be
about thirty million feet of logs
from the region of Sinnemahoning
and places this side, making about
sixty million feet to pass Lock
Haven.
There will be fifty RATS of round
timber put in at one point in the
Clearfeld region and this will be
about all the timber that will come
off the river from above the mouth
Of the Sinnemahoning. There will
be but few RATS of square timber
come down the river next spring,
and the lumber men have conclud-
ed there is more money i'll round
logs.

JUSTICE TODREYFUS.
FRENCH CABINET DECIDES IN FAVOR
OF REVISION.

The Documents to BE sent to the Court
of Cessation. The Minister of Justice
VIII Proceed Against Any One Attack
ing the Army,
Paris, Sept. 27.-At a meeting of the
rabinet Monday morning, all the min
listers being present, a decision was
taken in favor of a revision of the trial
Df Albert Dreyfus, the captain of artil-
lery who was degraded ON charges of
selling military secrets to foreign
power. and sentenced to imprisonment
on Devils island, near Cayenne. and
the documents in the case Will be sent
to the court of cessation.
The crowds of people outside the min
lstry OF the interior, where the cabinet
council was held, loudly cheered the
ministers, and there were shouts of
"vive Brisson!" "Vive la revision!"
The cabinet ordered the minister of
Justice, M. Sarrien, to lay before the
court of cessation the petition of Nine.
Dreyfus, wife of the prisoner of Devils
Island, for a revision of her husbands $
case.
The court, therefore, will decide the
legal question as to whether the first
trial of Captain Dreyfus was vitiated
by the forgery committed by the late
Lieutenant Colonel Henry, who was a
witness before the court martial, and
who confessed to having forged doc
ument in the case.
The minister of justice has announc-
ed that he has given instructions that
proceedings are to be taken immedi-
ntely against any one attacking the
army.
Henri Rochefort, in his paper, the
Intransigeant, accuses Major Esterha
zy of having been bribed by the So
called Dreyfus syndicate, to cover
himself with dishonor by confession to
forgery, of which charge he was
twice acquitted" NJ. Rochefort asserts
that he paid Esterhazy 1000 francs fof
copies of all the documents in the case,
and that, in addition, with two other
newspaper men, he paid Esterhazy,
who was literally without a centime.
300 francs monthly to prevent him from
aying of hunger while waiting to obtain
q pension.
Continuing, M. Rochefort says: Re
Gently, without any apparent incentive.
Esterhazy mysteriously went to Lon
don, abandoning his three hundred
francs monthly Why this emigration? !?
Who paid for his journey? With
what money has Esterhazy paid for
his meals?"
The Figaro says: 1.-THE government
may safely decide in favor of or
against a revision, but it's duty is to
come to a prompt determination"
M. Clemenceau, in the Aurore, says
France is divided into two Camps,
those who conceive that the interests
of the country depend upon the con-
cealment of facts by lies, and those
who have n sufficiently high esteem
for the country not to separate patri-
Otism from the aspirations of justice
and truth"

Washington, Sept. 26.-An instance
of the notable desire Of the British gov
ernment to cultivate friendly relations
with the United States Is given in the
course of some mail reports recently
reaching the state department from the
United States embassy at London. This
refers to the great military manoeuv-
res which were recently conducted or
Salisbury Plain, in the first week of
the present month.
These manoeuvres took place in the
presence of the com mA,ander-in-chief of
the British army, the secretary of state
for war, several members of the royal
family, the foreign military attaches,
and vast crowd of people. and the
national flag of the United States was
placed side by side with the British
royal standard, the Union Jack .and
the white naval ensign upon the prin-
cipal marquee at the saluting point.
There were no other flags on the tent
In question, but the four mentioned.
