see what tax shall be raised on the

The sidewalks ought to be erected, the

cost, and the taxes have got to be
raised anyway. The meeting ought

BIG Fruft Business.

N. r. Doe of New York arrived here
Sunday morning to visit his wife
and family, returning Wednesday
Newbury. He went to Boston in 1855,
where he engaged in the fruit and
produce business for 10 years, when he
went to New York and has been in
the fruit business there ever since.
For the past eight years he has been
managing partner of the firm Of Porter
Brothers Co., packers and jobbers in
California and Florida fruits, also
handling some foreign fruits. This
firm has branch houses in Chicago,
Boston, Minneapolis, Omaha, Sacra-
mento, Los Angeles and jacksonville
and are among the largest dealers in
fruits in the world Mr.. Doe reports
than any of the seven previous years,
the sales amounting to between 81, ,OOO,-
600 and $5,O0O,OO0. Mr.. Doe did bus
iness in New York alone last year of
nearly S1,O00,00 The freight bills of
goods shipped from the New York
house was 100000. Some idea OF the

rapidly improving in Florida, the
groves recovering from the effects of
the severe frOsts. California has re-
Gently been hit by frost and Mr.. Doe
thinks that the apricot and peach crop
will be reduced 80 per cent but other
fruits are not hurt. Mr.. Doe is the pi-
oneer of the California fruit trade in
New York, receiving the first carload
from that state in 1868. The growth
of the fruit business from that date
has been wonderful. The production
has been greatly increased and the
price has been correspondingly lower
ed. Not many years ago some fruits
were only purchased by the wealthy
people, but now they are within the
reach of all. As an example pears
now bring only about So barrel
where they used to sell for $25. Mr.
Does many friends here regret that
his stay could not be longer. He Is a
pleasant, genial gentleman, poss essing
those sterling traits of character com.
mon to many Vermonters who have
won success in other states.

mand of the Monterey and being a
schoolmate of Mrs. Botsford's in the
old Bradford Academy she called
on him. Captain Clark was greatly
pleased to see some one from ms
old home. He invited Mr.. and
Mrs. Botsford to visit the Monte
rev and carried them out in his private
launch, showing them the big guns
the machinery, his private rooms, ETC.;
on the powerful monitor. Although
they had not met for many years they
knew each other at once and Mrs.
Botsford says that the newspaper re,
ports about the Captain being one OF
most popular and handsomest othce9rs
in the navy have every reason TO be
true. When a boy he had merry
twinkle In his eyes and his face always
wore happy expression. These are
with him as a man and at once attract
a person to him. Mrs. BOtsford wrote
him a letter when he reached FLORIDA,
congratulating him on the successful
termination of his long and dangerous
voyage.

Do you recall the nursery rhyme
Rain. rain. go to Spain
Beat upon the windowpane
In childhood's happy, careless time?
Once again hear the sweet refrain:
Rain, rain, go to Spain.
Fall in Spain pouring rain;
Fall upon the ruin there.
The land 10 which we wished the rain
With faces pressed against the pane
Is now a land o erwrought with care.
The hand of God Is heavy laid
On cruel, ruthless. evil Spain.
He that smites her with the blade
Is the One who sends the rain;
He demands the price be paid
For all the suffering and pain.
The rain has fallen long in Spain
bitter rain of helpless tears,
Helpless-for they fall in vain
Tribute TO the pain of years
When grief's release is bought with peace
Shall tear-rain cease-in Spain.
