the great colonial exhibition. For the
past six months the CONCESSIONS depart.
ment has devoted much of its time IN
seeking for novel attractions of the
highest order and in refusing hundreds
of worthless applications for space in
what Is known as the Midday tract. The
result is that while this phase of the
exposition does notequal in magnitude
the famous Midway of the Worlds
fair, 1t will outclass it in its really in.
teresting features and 1t includes a
large number of unique and attractive
ideas that have never been worked out
at . previous exposition. The visitors
who will swarm through the grounds
this summer will have an opportunity
to see many things that have never
been seen before and it is believed that
some of these novelties will become as
famous as those that made the reputa-
tion of previous expositions.
"The Artists Studio," to be exhibit
ed on the West Midway at the coming
exposition, hes already awakened
much interest among artists and pat
rons and bids fair to receive wide
criticism of the most friendly charsc-
ter. The idea of an exhibit of this
kind was first conceived in the New
York Academy of Fine Arts in con-
nection with the delineatioa of the
living form, the spirited critici.m
which at the opening of the Worlds
fair at Chicago having evoked wide
public comment at the time because of
the French statuary then exhibited be.
fore the public. Since the close of
that great exposition even higher
estimate has been acquired among all
true patrons wherever choice fine art
works are seen. The French adage,
"Honi soft qut moly pense," has come
to be rfgidly observed and today art
galleries in this country are visited
more than ever before, even by the
prudish, without fear of corrupting
good morals or improperly.
The new French production known
as Darkness and Dawn, whose wierd
beauty and enhancing splendor beg
gars description, will be- seen on far
more splendid scale at the coming ex-
position. The production was inspired
BY Dante's Inferno, and is regarded to
be tho most weird, sensational and
meritorious attraction yet placed be.

Washington Wednesday, and expressed
themselves as very glad to get back to
the mild climate and balmy atmosphere
of old Vermont. The governor reports
that when he left Washington Tuesday
the snowbanks along the thoroughfares
were from 8 to 10 feet high and hun
dreds of teams were engaged in carting
them away. The whole country from
Washington to Culpepper has been
buried under two feet of snow since the
18th of February. The weather has
been frIghtfully cold, the thermometer
registering as low as 10 below, and the
Potomac river is covered with 10 inches

petition having been flied with the
Middlebury town clerk in accordance
with section POSI- of the Vermont
statutes, the election of town officers at
the forthcoming town election will be
by ballot on a single ticket, instead of
by individual tickets. The law is as
follows:
SECTION 29S4: Upon the written de
mand therefor of twenty voters, filed in
the town clerks Office at least twelve
days before the annual meeting, the
moderator, town clerk, first constable,
selectmen, road commissioners and
school directors shall be elected by

the town clerk, his deputy. or member
of the board of cvil authority designated
by him The person having the greatest
number of votes for any office shall be
declared elected to that office"
This means that the clerks of the
election at the time of the meeting will
provide each voter with a single ticket
bearing the titles of all the offices TO he
filled. with blank spaces for filing in
names of candidates for whom it is de-
sired to vote. and each voter will write
in the names. Candidates who wish to
c. nvass for support with personal
tickets must furnish their own tickets,
uniform In size and style with those
issued at the meeting. having their
names printed or written in the blank
space under the Office for which they are
running. 1t is important that each
voter provide himself with lead pencil

notice, but we would advise candidates
to "cill early and avoid the rush

Joshua Simpkins Tonight.

The sensational rural comedy drama,
"Joshua Simpkins," will be produced at
the opera house tonight, the Sd. The
play contains an interesting and intelli-
gible plot, but 1t is not allowed to in
terfere with the fun which is said to be
in abundance. During the run of the
play some startling scenes and situations
are seen, principal of which may be said
to be the country saw mill, in the third
act, shown in complete operation cut
thug up real timber. The saw used is
the genuine article, same as used in
large country saw mills. Two excellent
bands and fine orchestra accompany
this attraction. The bands will parade
at noon. when some good music may be
looked for. One band will be dressed W
as countrymen.

With the bachelors outnumbering the
maids in every state in the Union it ought
to be easy for the unmarried woman to
secure partner anywhere, but the
region where bachelors are most in ex.
cess is, of course, the most favorable to
the splnister, since the abundance of un.
married men gives her wider range of
choice. From "A matrimonial point of
view Idaho is the best state of the Union,
for there the number of the bachelors is
to that of the maids as 1G, 5S4 to l42G,
each unmarried woman in Idaho, there
fore, having ten or eleven bachelors,
not exactly at her beck, but available as
husband. From most points of view
the West is the Mecca of the young un-
married woman, for not only are there
more unmarried men in the western
states, but a living is more easily made
IN the west than in the east, and there
fore the western men are more addicted
to matrimOny.-Pro ID. r. Nc

Rutland-Lal>e punmore Electric Roa,


There is a strong PROBABILITY of an
electric road being built from Rutland TO
Lake Dunmore by the way of Proctor,
Plttsford aud Brandon. The surveys
have been made and financial negotia-
tions are well under way. The road is
to be built by the Lake DunmOre Power
and Traction company, which received
a charter at the last session of the legis.
lature. The total length of the road is
about 27 miles. The road will run from
lakeI Dunmore through Forestdale to
Brandon and Pittsford, where it crosses
to Proctor and connects at Center Rut
land with the track of the Rutland
Street Railway company. The company
intends to erect two large storage bat
teries along the line, which will store
power enough to run the cars for some
time in case of a temporary shut down.
A proposition has been made to the
Rutland Electric company to furnish
power for the new road.
