Several of Garretson's Massachosetts Oni-
GERS Resign.
There is, according to Porto Rican
advices, trouble in Gen. Garretson $
brigade, to which the 9th Illinois regi-
ment and Company A is attached. A
special cable to the Boston Journal
from Ponce, Porto Rico, saws: "A
tremendous sensation has occurred in
the 9th Massachusetts regiment.
which is in Gen. Garrettson's brigade.
The friction between the line officers
and the officers of the brigade. which
has been growing ever since the COM
mand left Cuba. reached it's climax
Monday, when Col. Woodward. Lieut..
Col. Chaffin, Maj. Taylor, Chaplain
Dousseault and Capt. GoodeIl, of
Company X, resigned their commits
sions. The exact reason which
prompted them to take this action is
not at present known. The cause
must have been serious, indeed. The
designations leave Maj. Charles X.
Darling in command of the regiment.
The matter has been fully reported to
Gen. Miles, and a rigid investigation
has been ordered. By military law to
resign in face of the enemy means a
court martial"
Gen. Garretson's brigade and the
batteries are camped Just beyond
Ponce.

North WalpOle.

: Some of the citizens of North Walpole
have been discussing the ACCESSIBILITY Of
asking the government to establish sepa-
rate postoffice in that enterprising village,
and the movement would be given new
impetus should free delivery be given Bel
lows Falls and stop on this side of the
river Some have thought that separate
office across the river would reduce the
gross earnings of the Bellows Falls office
below the $4,000 point SO that it would
not be entitled to free delivery, but Post
master Dow, who is pretty good authority
in the matter thinks this would not be the
case he thinks great many would still
patronize the Office here.
North Walpole had postofice Of its own
once on time. w. H. Kiniry, who is one
Of the longtime residents of that village,
thinks the office lived some ten or IL years
and is of the opinion that Nathaniel Mon
roe was the commissioned postmaster dur
ing the entire period, but never did any of
the active work himself. The first one to
attend the office was Miss Exit" Taylor,
later Mrs. Norris Ro's then came Lock-
wood, Hawkins and F. G.. Pierce. With
the exception Of short time the office was
where James Barrett's grocery store now
is. Leander Hartman, father Of Selah
Hartman, used to carry the mail from the
Bellows Falls postoffice and received $3.50
per year for his services. The patrons
had but one mail and that was at noon !;
the office was discontinued because it did
not pay expenses about Is years ago.

French Ghost Hunters.

Members of our own Society Of
Psychical Research, which, by the
way, has not been much in evidence Of
late, should be interested in the fate
which has befallen the French body
with identical aims known as La So
ciete DIES Sciences Psychiques. The
latter has just been reduced to state Of
hopeless disruption by the conduct Of q
section of its adherents who, presum-
ably weary Of combining their psychical
researches to the chasing of elusive
"spooks, have gone astray after such
livelier branches of occult science as
the preparation of talismans, the con-
cocting of love philters and the telling
Of fortunes
The earnest ghost hunters, disguised
by this descent to the methods of the
common or commercial charlatan, have
resigned in body and formed a new
society of their own. 1t is by no means
certain, however, that those who remain
have not proved themselves wiser in
their generation than the seceders, for,
while ghosts are Enthusiastically 'off"
in these days, the interest in other forms
of mystical quackery seems to be as
strong and widespread as ever.-London

Death of Mrs. Thomas.

The following regarding the death of a
former resident Of this place is from the
Monday issue of the Montpelier Evening
Argus. Mr.. Thomas formerly did business
here where Frank Massucco now is and
still owns the block.
Mrs. Mariana Thomas, wife of D.
Thomas, the we'll known Main street fruit
dealer, died at her home in Thomas block
Sunday morning at o'clock from consump-
ton, from which she had been a sufferer
for many months. Mrs. Thomas had come
to be well known to the neighborhood
where she resided as bright, industrious
person and woman possessing more than
the average business tact. She was born
IN Italy 80 years ago, where she ha, a
father, her mother being dead. She came
to this country some eight years ago. Pre-
vious to coming. to Montpelier she had
lived with her husband in Bellows Falls
and other places. 1t was through her bust
ness tact and excellent Judgment that the
lucrative fruit business was. established and
conducted. Her bright face and CHEEKY
disposition made friends for her and she
possessed the happy faculty of retaining
them. The deceased is survived by hus-
band and three sons.

Pomona Grange.

Cheshire county Pomona grange held
a special meeting with Spofford grange at
Chesterfield, N. H., June Is. 1t was said
to be the most interesting meeting of the
year. A recitation by Mrs. Waldo Rouil-
lad is worthy of special mention. We
shall hope to hear from her often in the
future Excellent papers were read by
Mrs. M. l.. Smith and Mrs. F. S. Smalley
on the best ways of saving strength aud
time in doing Homework. Some very
appropriate memory gems were quoted and
read by the sisters. The question, "What
is the Chief cause OF unhappiness among
farmers P" was ably discussed. Frank
Knight entertained the listeners with his
experiences in an intelligent manner. All
farmers are not unhappy even if the potato
crops we're a failure and potatoes more
than double in price. DR.. Craig then
related his trials with the farmers, stating
how some expected immediate relief when
the medicine they needed was cheerful
word and lift from encouragement.
Mr.. Bennett spoke to the point; he
thought the farmer had cause for discon-
tent with low prices tor produce and high
prices for labor. The meeting was a lively
one. b.
