THE TIMES.
SATURDAY, MAY Z 1898.
Bellows Falls Locals.

A, C. Mouiton is employed in the Blue
Store.
Rev. j. II. Reid and John H. Chase had
a successful fishing trip Monday, catching a
string of trout.
Charles F. Mason of Brattleboro has
placed his new three tenement block on
Underhill court with G. w. Labaree for
sale.
j. Patterson White at Moselle, N.
D., during the early part Of April put in
307 acres of wheat on the farm of IL. X.
Thompson in one week.
1t is reported that the Ga acres known as
the King field were sold to LID. Lockwood
for $4,000. Mr.. Lockwood will lay out a
street, and offer some 80 building lots Tor
sale.
The damage by fire to the dwelling Of
l.. F. Barnes of Westminster which &C.
Cured last week Thursday has been paid
through the insurance agency of E. l..
Walker.
c. X. Labaree is at Lake Sunapee; on
Wednesday he caught one z IL pound
salmon, one 5 1-2 pound salmon, and one
pound trout from the wharf at Bay Point ;
pretty good record for one day.
The bailiffs have made marked improve
ments on several of the streets by grading
so that good bitches for surface water
run parallel with the sidewalks. When the
snow has melted and during sudden show
ers no little trouble and inconvenience has
resulted from inadequate surface drainage.
Law, insurance and real estate is strong
combination under any circumstances, but
when the combination carries with it tri-
umvirate such as G. III. Robb, E. L.Walk-
er and G. w. Labaree the word "strong''
is Inadequate. The offices in the opera
house block have been newly painted, and
when DR.. Parker's old customers accident
ally stray into Mr.. Labaree's office they
don't know where they are at.
Co. of Brattleboro, known as the Estey
Guards, passed through here about $50
yesterday morning in a special train OF
three cars. They were en- route for Fort
Ethan Allen at Burlington where the Ma
tional Guard are to be modified. A large
crowd gathered at the station and cheered
en- Enthusiastically.
A letter received here dated April Is
states that the Bellows Falls gold diggers,
Messrs. Thompson, Roland and King, are
at Lake Bennett. They first went to Ska
quay and from there over the White Pass
to the lake region beyond. At Skaguay
they own an interest in wharf and at
Lake Bennett are building fat-bottomed
boat on which they expect to float $500 or
5000 tons of freight down to the Yukon
river and Dawson City. They expect to
start during the latter part of May and a
large percentage of the freight will be
owned by other parties, on which the
boat owners expect to realize 20 to 80 cents
per pound for freight. The Bellows Falls
contingent have full years supply of pro-
visions and report that they are we'll and
enjoying their experience.

A Letter on Bryanism Brngs Out An Edit
orial.
London, Jan. 10.--The Times COM
menting editorially this morning on dis
patches from George w. Smalley, its
New York correspondent, dealing with
the growth of Organism among the
democrats, and the disintegration of the
republicans, and predicting a silver ma
jority in the next house of representa-
tives, attributes the reaction" to Pres
ident McKinleys 'tempori2ing attitude
and ambiguous language on the cur-
rency question" The Times says:
"It cannot be that the forces which
defeated Organism in 1896 are wholly
shattered and annulled by a series OF
tactical errors, but an immense advan-
tage has undoubtedly been given to the
anarchical and predatory tendencies
which have recently become so formida-
Bile in American society, by the disor-
ganization of the republican party and
the incapacity OF sound money men to
retain any controlling authority among
the democrats
Clearly, there will be a desperate
fight few months hence, to be re-
newed at the presidential contest of 1900
over the same issues which were sup
posed to be settled by the election Of
Mr.. Mckinley

A PECULIAR WILL.

The following story of a will comes from
Wilkesbarre, Pa:
One of the most remarkable wills ever
filed in the courts of Pennsylvania came
up in Bradford county, and is now in
Judge Archibald's hands. The will is that
of George t. Wilcox of Franklin township,
and among its provisions are the follow
ing: "As to all my grandchildren. l give
to them portion each of $1,000 upon the
following conditions: That they support
the democratic administration, both state
and national, and in case any one fails to
do this, then his share is to be divided
among my other grandchildren, share and
share alike, and in case none follow my
directions, then the money is to go to the
democratic national committee. also
give and bequeath to each of my grand
daughters $500 apiece, in case they remain
single or marry democrats. In case they
do not follow my direction, any one fall
ing, her share shall be divided among my
other grandchildren.
The auditor, eX-Lieutenant Governor
William T. Davies, decided that the con-
ditions attached by Wilson to these be-
quests shall be declared void as a tempta-
tion or bribe for the advocacy Of par
tcular political creed, contrary. to the
genius of the government and institutions.
This is one of the questions that Judge
Archibald will have to dispose of.

en- not too wisely.
For pretty floral table take pale
blue velveteen table centre. with gol-
den-brown chrysanthemums and a
spray OF two of forget-me- -nots or
even cornfowers intermixed; then,
with a frond or two of maiden-hair
fern or asparagus fern, your floral
decorations are perfect
Those tiny little iris-oehid iris
they are called-in yellow, just striped
or touched here and there with a deli
cate mauve, are beautiful indeed for
the dinner table if combined with
white tulips, just tinged with pink, or
even with pink anemones, and mount
ed on a table centre of rich yellow,
like the deepest shade of yellow in the
iris

Pittsburg, Jan. 9-John D. Scully,
aged 73, died today. of inflammation Of
the brain, after a weeks illness. Mr..
scully had been connected with the
First National Bank of this city "A
years. AS an officer of one of Pitts
burg's greatest financial institutions, he
was noted for fidelity and courtesy. His
reputation as a banker was national,
and MS opinion on any subject connect
ed with banking carried great weight.
In 1863 Mr., Scully was treasurer of the
Pittsburg Trust Company, when the in
stitution became the First National
Bank, and he was elected cashier. 1t
was the first bank to apply for char
ter under the national banking act. The
passage of the national banking law in
1863 was largely due to the efforts of
Mr. Scully
