practical business organization
1t offers no apology for its exis
tence. 1t believes in itself ant
its aims and objects, and holds
without qualifications, that these
aims and objects are worthy the
support and consideration of al
men interested in the betterment
OF commercial standardized

in this world of ours is the best

The American Houdan Club
was organized upon the solid and
unmovable basis that the Houdan
stands among the most practical
and profitable fowls of the many
excellent breeds recognized by
the American Standard of Per-
lection. That is a sure basis
upon which to build. 1t is not a

Washington County Court

The March term of Washington County
Court convened Wednesday morning at ten
o'clock, Judge l.. Ii. Thompson OF Irasburgh
presiding. Prayer was offered by Rev. A. N
Lewis, and proclamation was made by
Deputy Sheriff j. l.. Tuttle. The docket
was called and large number OF cases
were set for hearing.
The jury was called when court came in
at two o'clock, and Judge Thompson briefly
instructed them as to their duties. The
FIRST case for trial was Daniel T.
McGovern against g. M Hays and K. @.
Smith, receivers for the Central Vermont
railroad, to recover for damages alleged to
have been sustained by defendant, who
was struck by train at crossing in Boil
ton over a year ago. Lord & Carleton, j.
W. Cord n and F. L. Laird appear for
plaintiff; c. w. Writer'S and j. III. Senter
for defendant
@. 8. Currier, city engineer of Barre,
who made plans of the scene OF the accident
was examined at length Thu sday morn
ing. Daniel McGovern, the plauuff was
then called to the stand. He testified as to
the injuries received by him, that he had
since been unable to perform any labor. He
earned before the accident from $500 to
81 900 year selling nursery stock; since he
was injured his boys have supported him.
Doctors Chandler, insolvency and ia
cobs were called by the plaintiff this morn
ing in the case OF Daniel McGovern against
dler was called TO attend Mr.. McGovern at
the time OF this accident, and has attended
him during the past summer and fall. DR..
Chandler was on the stand for a long time
and was given an extended cross examina.
zion by j. III. Senter, counsel for the de-
fence. His cross examination brought out
the fact that the present impaired condition
OF Mr.. McGovern's lung is due to pleuro.
pneumonia, with which he was suffering
when DR.. Chandler was first called to at
tend him the day after the accident, and
that this condition might have existed had
there been no accident. The defence will
evidently attempt TO prove that McGovern
was intoxicated at the time the accident oo-
Cured.
The Jury was taken by special train Friday
afternoon to the scene of the accident.
Sheriff Graves, Assistant Judges Mears and
Edgerton, and counsel for both parties ac-
companied them. The special returned
about four o'clock, when the trial OF the
case was resumed.

the Drews and Barrymores. He is the son
OF Georgia Drew, the lamented coincidence
well remembered as Mrs. Hillary, the ire
pressibe widow in Cranes play, The Sen

success in this part, but her mother, Mrs.
John Drew, survived her by five years. Ac-
cording to her autobiography, she was the
daughter of comedian named Lane. a
tavorite provincial actor in England. Lio-

ing will be cooked in the field. His turkey
will be baked in ovens made in the earth,
and the soup may be prepared over fires
made in pits in the ground. The sugges-
lions Of the comnlissary general direct how
trenches for cooking should be dug. They
tel how to make ovens Of logs and CLAW
and recommend the kinds Of portable stoves
which should be carried from place TO
place. The book has picture of one Of
these field ovens, many of which I ven
ture will be in use In the Philippines on
Thanksgiving. The oven Is made as fol
lows:
"A clayey soil is selected and hole three
feet square and two feet deep is dug The
best place for it is along the slope Of a hill
and sometimes Ia shaft is run right into
the hill and holes made in the top upoil
which pots and pans can be set. At the
extreme end a chimney Is erected. The
clay forms the sides and bed of the stove.
Such an arrangement makes a good oven,
and II can also be used for every kind Of
cooking"
On another page the method Of making
field ovens is described. II states that two
men with a spade and long-handled shovel
can make an excellent oven I'm a steep
bank in three-Quarters of an hour If they
have not such tools they can make Il with
their bayonets. or even with knives The
oven described has a capacity Of about
fcrty rations. and Will bake good bread ia
about fifty minutes. 1t would undoubtedly
be excellent for turkeys, and probably
many turkey will be cooked in ovens Of
this kind this year.
Other pages show how to bake beans IN
trenches, how to make field bake houses
bitches which can be used as kneadlng
trol.ghs, and all sorts Of hints as to the use
of water and wood. The book gives in de-
tail everything that the army cook needs
telling him how TO cook well the painest

VOICES OF FISHES,
REGULAR sounds Uttered by the In
habitnnts of the Deep.

From the Baltimore Herald.
Fish that utter sounds are by no means
rare, but they are not often seen or heard
by those not in the fishing business Some
years ago, in the Gulf of Mexico. q small
highly colored fish known as the haemulon
was hauled in. The moment it appeared
above the surface it opened its mouth and
began to grunt nd groan so loudly that
the attention T.. the entire party was at
tracted to il The sounds could be heard
from one nd to the other of the sixty-ton
schooner. One of the fishermen held the
fish III amazement a few moments and then
was so convinced that 1t was talking and
begging for liberty that it was tossed over
board.
The gizzard shad utters note that can
be heard some distance and the eel is said
to make noise that comes nearer to being
musical than any other made by fish.
The loudest sound ever known to be uttered
by hSh came from a small dogiiSh, or
shark, on the New England coast. The
fishermen were hauling them in by the
dozen and as each fish came out of the
water it uttered a loud croak, and kept it
UP as though in great agony, so that when
several of these fishes were on deck the air
was full of barking or croaking.
The drumfsh is one of the few fishes
whose sounds are heard while they in
the water. The late Spencer F. Baird of the
Smithsonian Institution made some inter
esting experiments with them, and in a re-
port described the strange sounds that
came up from the bottom. He had the i'm
preston that the fish were directly on the
bottom of the vessel and were striking it,
but this was found to be mistake. The
fish were in a school some feet below the
surface and in all probability were making
the sounds by striking their pharyngeal
teeth together. The sounds produced by
these fish have a singular effect upon su-
perstitious seamen who see omens in the
weird noises.
Any one who has slept in q small beat
with his ears a few inches from the water
has heard strange cracking sounds some
times. They appeared like a series of
cracks or electric shocks, but what crea-
lures produce the noise no one seems to
know.
One of the most remarkable of all the
sOund-producing fishes is found in China
seas, and an account of its actions has been
given by Lieut.. White Of the British navy
He was engaged in some special work at
the entrance of river and came to anchor
one night in shallow water. Presently
strange sounds began to be heard coming
up from the bottom. They were described
as resembling the changing of bells and
the beating of drums. The men were de-
moraliZed and attributed the noises to
spirits. it being said that n crew of pirates
had gone down there. but the officers were
convinced that the noise was caused by
some sea animals, and investigation showed
that il came from school of fish that
made the sounds by clapping their teeth to-
gether

The Queens Equanimlty.

From the Spectator.
Throughout her long and arduous life she
has never failed to keep her head, 20 see
things in their true proportions, and 10
maintain a wise, sane ard equable outlook
on public affairs. The queen that is. IN
spite Of the thousand temptations. which
must have arisen during sixty-two years OF
sovereignty, has never shown fussinAss.
irrltabillty OveranXiety or any other form
of distraction and want of mental balance.
There must have been plenty of steps taken
in home and foreign affairs, plenty of bills
passed and policies adopted OF which the
queen has most heartily ard strongly dis
approved. Again, there must have been
plenty of cases i'm. which. statesmen have
been raised TO power by popular favor. or
dismissed from power by Ihe nckleness OF
public opinion, in which the queen has en-
tirely differed with the majority of her peo-
pie. Whether the queen or her people have
been in the right does not matter. No doubt
there have been some instances in which
she has been wrong and the public right:
and others in, WHICH her personal view has
proved the true one.
The important, the essential, thing Is that
she has always kept her head in public
affairs, and that in. regard to the contro-
Versles OF the hour she has been able TO
show the weli-baianced mind. when she
sincerely and conscientiously disapproyCd
of a measure, OF a policy that was trium-
plant for the moment she never showed
fussy anxiety or rirrisablity, FEVER let il be
seeh VI hHoSit bute sue Thought Tue country
was being injured bysthis or that fuuda-
mental change. Again, al times wheu a
policy has been popular with which she has
been in special and personal sympathy she
has never yielded to the temptation TO let
her name be connected with 1t, or TO as
sumo any credit for it's Initiation. Yet
again and again it has happened that happy
suggestions irom the Queen have had eN-
tremely important results in policy and
legislation. In theory her ministers advise
the queen, but in practice she often advises
them.
In a word, the queen has been able.
thanks to the inesumable gift of equaniFn-
ity, to show neither irritablity nor anxiety
when things have not gone the way she
would have iiked them to go, nor the slight
est touch of triumph self-compiaeency
" hen her personal view has been in the
ascendant. She has been perturbed neither
by regret nor by pride, but has kept her
mental balance absolutely alike in storm on
calm.

Until year ago such a thing as an elec
tric car was unknown in Spain The cars
IN a few principal towns that could boast
or having tramways of any kind Were
drawn through the streets at a jog-trot
pace by horses or more Frequently. mules
Within the last few months, however, for
eign enterprise has been the means of in
augurat:ng electric traction in the streets
OF Madrid. Barcelona, Valencia, Bilbao and
san SEBASTIAN, and the lead thus taken by
the principal tramway companies in the
chief cities of Spain is likely to be quickly
followed by others.
