still used by many creameries are not de-
sired in the Boston market, the tin fasten-
ers being much more preferable. The 6ve-
pound round box is very popular, as is the
five pound brick shape box. The pound
print is much in demand. The return trunk
is preferable to the gift carrier, or package
that is not returnable. Butter made from
separated cream will have the preference
every time over that made from gathered
cream, other things being equal. The but
termilk flavor often found in butter can be
easily avoided by proper washing. This
undesirable flavor affects very materially

general discussion followed Mr.. Whites ad-

e. p. Carpenter of West Waterford, open.
ed the discussion Friday afternoon, with an
address on 1.-THE Surplus of Butter over the
Babcock Test" r.. f, Jaynes of Ryegate,
followed with a paper on "The fancy butter
trade" Clean milk is the first requisite of
fancy butter. No living man can make
good butter with milk that has been fouled
from the cows bag and the stables. Cream
should not stand long at temperature of
750. 1t should be soured just enough to get
the right flavor. Cream should be churned
at temperature that will bring the butter
in about 45 minutes. Butter should be
washed twice. Packages should be clean
and neatly put up. Creamery men ought to
go often to market and learn the needs of
the fancy trade.
j. W. Radcliffe OF Maine, spoke entertain
ly on purity OF milk" giving interesting
illustrations drawn from the Maine Con-
densed Milk Company, of which he is the
head
Eugene R. Towne of Waterbury, then
read carefully prepared paper on "Cream
Ripening." This was followed by general
discussion. The question box was opened
and many pertinent questions were satsfac-
torily answered.
A very small audience was present at the
closing session Friday evening, due in part
to numerous other local attractions. The
Arion Quartette again sang, much to the
enjoyment OF those present, and Prof. ST.
neon @. Keyth, Jr. of Boston, gave lec-
ture on Bacteria in dairying including
butter culture" illustrated with the stere-
optoan. Prof. Keyth has made this subject
study for many years, and Is able to i'm
part his ideas in a very pleasing and in
structive manner.
The officers OF this association have labor
ed industriously for months to make this
reason to be satisfied with the attendance
and interest manifested, both in the number
and quality of the exhibits, and in the
steady increase in membership. For an in
FAINT organization, the Vermont Butter and
Cheesemakers' Association is very promi-
sing one, and its future will be watched
with no little interest.
The time and place for holding the next
annual meeting is left with the executive
committee but it will probably be held at
Montpelier in January, 1899.

tain was the result. II was full
rugged iron ship, armored, with auxil-
larry steam power. High bulwarks
were intended to be let down when the
vessel was cleared for action, uncover.
ing the two turrets.
The ship was launched in 1869 and
had trouble from the first. Finally she
seemed to "6nd herself" and Joined the
Channel fleet. On September Z, 1870,
commanded by Capt. Hugh Burgoyne,
she was sailing through the Bay of Bis
cay. She carried company of 488
persons, and Capt. Coles and Mr..
Childers, a son of the First Lord of the
Admiralty, who were passengers, made
the total number on board 400. AT
1915 A. M. a squat sprang up and
struck the top-heavy ship. The bull
warks were down, the ship heeled over
and never righted. OF the 400 persons
on board only eighteen escaped, and
when the court martial sat to try some
one for negligence in losing the vessel,
the only person they could try was
James May, the gunner. Every officer
was lost.
The Captain was not in harbor; but
she might as well have been; she was
alone, there was no danger of collision,
her ammunition didn't explode. Seem
ingly she was as safe as ship well
could be. She and the Eurydice and
the Royal George were beaten down by
no great storms. 1t was as though the
finger of Providence had pointed at
those three ships and at nothing else.
Not quite three years after the Fury
dice capsized there was boat race on
the Thames up in Canada. The day
was Queen Victoria's birthday, May
"a, 1881. The day was clear, it was q
holiday, and the race was exciting; 30
the steamboats, accompanying the racers
were crowded. The Victoria had on
her decks every soul she could carry;
but everybody behaved well, and there
was no trouble and no danger-until an
exciting part of race caused the
crowd to rush to one side of the boat.
Then she capsized, She had 700 per-
sons on board, and more than 300 died.
The suddenness of this disaster was
appalling. A traveller driving in car
rage saw the crowded Victoria steam
ing after the racing boats, the road ran
behind low hill, cutting off all view
of the river for hundred yards or 3d.
When the driver had passed the bluff
and again saw the river the Victoria
had capsized.
There are countless other instances
of such strange providential happen
ings; they all go to show that man is
as safe anywhere as he is anywhere
else, and that when his time is up he
must go.-New York Sun.

of the fact that poor fellow of our own
was lying grievously wounded near the
Federal side of the fifty yards that sep
areted our works from the enemy's.
He had been lying there through all
that long, fierce summer day. The ex-
plosion at daylight had caet him there.
His groans and his cries for help and
for water were piteous in the extreme.
We listened to them heart broken, but
helpless--all but 81 Tucker.
Isl began stripping off his clothes;
we thought he had gone mad. But
when we asked him why he was strip
ping himself he replied: Never you
mind With that, stripped to the
ekin, he leaped over the works, ducked
his head low, and ran through that
hailstorm of bullets TO where the wound
ed man lay. Grasping him quickly, he
slung him upon his back like bag of
meal, and ran back with all his might.
AS he crossed the works he fell head
long. The surgeons found three bull
let's in his body, Nobody in the bat
terry ever remembered after that that
81 Tucker had once been coward.
After this, it is, perhaps, mainly ques-
ton of nerves."

Supreme court convened last Wednesday
morning, with every member of the bench
present, to render decisions on cases heard
at the January term. The Marsh-Buzzell
case was the first taken up. The decision
was read by Judge Ross, and every excep-
ton was overruled. The decision was very
long, its delivery occupying forty.hve min
utes. Mrs. Marsh was first told to stand
and was asked If she she had any reason to
give why the sentence OF the law should
not be pronounced upon her. She replied
simply, II am not guilty" Judge Ross
you, Isabelle A. Marsh, be hanged by the
neck until you are dead; that this sentence
be carried into execution within the walls
of the state prison or within the Enclosure
OF the same in Windsor, in the county of
Windsor, on the Sd day OF February, 1899
between the hours Of two and five in the
afternoon OF that day; that in the mean
time you be confined in the state prison,
except the last three months, at hard labor,
and during the last three months in solitary
confinement; that the clerk Of this court
issue a proper warrant for your confne-
ment in states prison, and that on the Goth
day OF January, 1899, he issue 10 she sheriff
of Windsor county proper warrant, under
seal OF the supreme court, for the execution
OF the sentence of death, and may God have
mercy on your soul" Not an eyelash quiv-
cred or muscle trembled as Mrs. Marsh
stood and received this sentence.
Buzzell was then told to stand. Ex.Gov.
Dillingham;, his counsel, interposed and
said that bis client was 30 deaf he could not
hear th61Dbntence unless he was very close
to the court. The sheriff was then instruc-
ed to lead Buzzell in front of the bench
Buzzell was asked If he had anything to
say in his own behalf and replied:
eyes, sir. don't think l have had JUS
tiee done me, think ought to have a
new trial"
Judge Ross replied that the court had
very carefully examined the proceedings in
the case and the exceptions TAKEN and was
compelled to think differently. He then
imposed upon Buzzell the same sentence
| for the same date, place and hour that had
been imposed upon Mrs, Marsh. Buzzell
appeared very much overcome by the SEN
