Kipling Is Coming.

Brattleboro, the American home of Rud-
yard Kipling, is soon to be honored with q
visit from the famous author. When Mr..
Kipling came to this country nearly three
months ago he felt that the shortness Of his
visit would prevent his coming to his YER
mont home, but since then he has made ma
terial changes in his plans. Unless unfore-
seen circumstances arise Mr.. Kipling and his
family viii be in Brsttleboro within 10 days.
SO much has recently been published con-
corning Mr.. Kipling's plans which has been
untrue that it may be necessary to add that
this statement is made on authority. For oo.

Dewey's Successor.

Rear Admiral Watson, who has been
chosen to succeed Admiral Dewey in the
Philippines when the latter cares to come
home, ranked above both Sampson and
Schley at the beginning Of the Spanish war.
He has an excellent naval record extend
ing back into the civil war. In the choice
OF fighting naval officers Schley and Samp-
son were preferred to Watson and were
both given places of greater responsibility
and prominence.
Nevertheless Watson, then commodore,
was looked upon as one of the valuable
men in high positions during the days of
active hostilities. He was assigned to the
command of the blockading squadron on
the north coast of Cuba from May to
June 81, 1898. Then he was in charge Of
the first squadron OF SIMPSONS fleet tor six
days, at the end OF which time he was
placed over the squadron which the govern
ment designed to send against the coast of
Spain. When peace was sued for that
plan was given up and Watson succeeded
Sampson as the senior naval officer in Gu
ban waters. On October s he was assigned
to the command of the Mare Island navy
yard in California.-Keene Sentinel.

Railroad RumOr.

1t is thought that in the railroad shuttle
now going on the Rutland road may be the
only line to reach Burlington. This would
come about by that road acquiring, by lease
or purchase, the Central Vermont branch from
Burlington to Essex junction.
This would give the Rutland Canadian such
an entrance to the city as it wants. 1t would
also give the Rutland road control of Burling-
ton and Winoosk and leave the Grand Trunk
to its through line over the Central Vermont,
which is especially what it wants.
1t is not understood that this trade if car.
ried through will in any way interfere with
the building of the Rutland Canadian road.

The Shirt Waist.

Behold me,

The universal slip
That woman wears
And revels in
With wild, abandoned Joy,
AS unrestrained
AS am.
Had Eve but had
A shirt waist on,
When she passed out
The garden gate,
Her hardship would have seemed
A holiday;
Had Cleopatra had me ON
When she swept down the Nile
Meath silken sails,
She would have cast
Her sunshades far
Out on the rolling tide;
And Venus, she of Medici,
II decked in me,
Would surely
A new woman be.
Without me,
Woman's wear is but name
For fetters and for bonds,

But in the summer time

That make the rainbow pale
And beg the sun to shine
No more upon the rain.

Into my web;
The rose tint and the cherry-ripe,
The apple-bloo
The violet and the golden.rod,
The chrome chrysanthemum,
The. dazzling dahlia and the tulip show,
The painted psnsy
In thousand dyes,
The vari-verdancy of grasses in the fields,
The crimson, gold and scarlet of
The frost-kissed forest leaves,
The multi-colored breadth of earth
And sea and sky and air,
And lambert moon and silver sun,
And topaz stars

When summer comes to let
My gorgeous glory loose
And spread them Ger the world.
