ties.

London, Dec. 4.-The week opens
without a word of news such as the
British public is SO anXiously await
ing. With larger army in the held
than the country ever before mObo-
lized. it can only be said that the loss
of $500 men, entaied before the
enemy's borders have been crossed is
a serious matter, and while there is
no feeling of dependency as to the
eventual result OF the war, it is re-
gretfully admitted ON all sides that
the strength of the Bocr resistance
has been woefully underrated.
1t is now seen that the attempt to
hold useless position at Mateking
was serious tactical mistake, as was
also the endeavor to keep the large
civil population at Kimberly.
Perhaps the brightest spot for Eng
lish readers today is the announce
mcnt that President Mckinley has
DESIGNATED the son Of Secretary Hay
to succeed Mr.. Macrum in Pretoria.

A Dancing Procession.

A peculiar, but famous, dancing pro-
cession annually takes place at Echter-
mach. In Belgium, France and Ger
many excursions are organized to the
little Luxembourg town, whose church
contains the remains of st. Willbrord.
The pilgrims to Echternach execute in
a certain rhythm what is called the
dance of the 'leaping saints" 1t takes
the form of advancing three steps,
making step backward, advancing
three more steps, and so on. 1t is in
this quaint way that the procession, in
which 10000 persons take part each
year, starts from the bridge on the
Lure, the place of assembly, to the
church,--The Ball Room.

Quick Work.

The Montpelier papers made great
ado Saturday about an italian couple
that were married here Thanksgiving
day and separated the same night.
This may be little livelier than
matrimonial life in Montpelier, but
Barre is cosmopolitan.
The couple in question were limo
cent Braghini and Chiaravalli Gren-
delta. Innocent has worked here for
four years past. Chiarvalli came from
New York month or two ago
Innocent desired to cherish and pro-
tect her, and she, nothing 10th, agreed
to let bim furnish the wherewithal
for her maintenance, she on her part
to bring him the first fond love OF
maiden heart, and do the houseWork.
They were married, but before the
setting of the sun Innocent claims to
have discovered that she had deceived
him. and all love fled from his heart.
He tried to have his friends 60 to
the priest and get him unmarried but
finding that that was impossible he
retained Lord & Carleton of Montpe-
lier to secure a divorce for him.
Chiaravalli the bride of an hour,
left for New York and sailed Saturday
for her home in Italy. Innocent is
still here, but does not now believe
that his name is symbolic OF the char
acter Of all mortals, and especially
that of Chiaravalli.
Since the above was in type we
have heard several conflicting stories,
but as near as can be learned the lady
was in Montpelier instead of New
York en- route for Italy. Saturday
night she came back to Barre and
Innocent left last night for MasSachu-
setts to see if it is possible to lose her.
Forty or fifty Italians organized a
calathumpian band last evening and
serenaded the house where Chiaravalll
was stopping. She appeared on the
piazza, cIapped her hands and enunci-
atcd: "Good boy! Good boy!"

ELY MINES SOLD.
Bradford Bank Will Get Nearly Dollar
for Dollar.

Bradford, Dec. 4.-There is great
here over the sale of the Ely
copper mines, which was officially
announced yesterday. The sale is to
George Westinghouse of Pittsburg,
Pa, the inventor of the Westinghouse
air brake and the head of the great
electric company of the same name.
Oct. 18th Mr.. Westinghouse was given
until Nov. 22d to have his title eX-
pert. ThoS. S. Beecher of the New
York firm of Seward, Guthrie &
Steele, examine the title to the prop
erty, which was done and reported to
be satisfactory, and on the latter date
the first payment OF $4,000 was de-
posted with the Standard Trust Co.
of New York as Joint trustee for the
purchaser and seller, and ten days
time allowed tor the delivery of deeds,
at which time the second payment of
$l5, 900 will be deposited with the
trustee, and thereafter every three
months payments are to be made,
which will be distributed to the bond
holders of the Mining company until
the purchasing price is paid.
The Bradford Savings Bank and
Trust Co. will realize nearly the whole
amount of it's claim, which is most
favorable outcome, and all litigation
between the bank and Mr.. Straine, SO
far as the mining property is con-
cerned will be settled by the arrange
ment.

they do to oppose it and and it will
be enforced without trouble. Enforce
the prohibtory law with the same
force and zeal that you do other
alws.'
Mr.. Robb then censured the Rut-
land Herald for an editorial censuring
Judge Rowell for enjoining certain
Burlington party and some other pap
ers for the stand they take on the
question.
"What are these United States
licenses purchased for? Every rum
seller is opposed to the prohibitory
law and this fact alone should convince
us that it is all right as it is. You
hear it said frequently that there is
more drunkenness III Vermont than
in license states, but statistics show
that the reverse is true.
eff you have ii local option law, who
pays for the license? 1t is the man
who earns his daily bread by the sweat
of his brow who pays for the license
and for the rumseller's horses, houses
and lands. The license law would be
enforced by the same officers that en-
force the present law and would it's
provisions be carried out any better
than those of the existing law.
Mr.. Robb read and ccnsured some
sections of the McGeary bill, and gave
some statistics on drunkenness under
prohibition and local option which
favored the former. He closed with a
strong appeal to parents urging them
to spurn as a thousand scorpions the
open saloon.
Mr.. Fuller made brief remarks,
speaking of the successful Cobb raid
Saturday. Said he thought there was
at least one man who now believed
that prohibition prohibits. He said
the raid was the fruit Of long and
careful planning, executed by officers
who have demonstrated that they can
be trusted. He said that there were
other officers that could be trusted and
that they would soon have a chance.
L. L. Leonard gave a cornet solo,
"The Holy City" while the ushers
took up a collection. The assembly
arose and joined in singing America.

EAST BARRE.

One of the pleasantest receptions
ever held in this village, was rendered
Rev. w. Parkyn jackson, pastor of
the Congregational church, at the par
tors of the church Wednesday evening.
A very select literary programme was
rendered in credtable manner. Too
much praise cannot be given the ladies
aid society, who were the promoters OF
the affair." The pastor was presented
with handsome purse of money with
very able and appropriate remarks.
Theattendance was large and all join
ed feelingly in extending their heart
felt sympathy to the PASTOR who on
account Of failing health, must for a
time be separated from his church in
order to carry out his untiring efforts
to promote the interest of his church.
1t is sincerely hoped by all who are
| interested in the church that in mild
er climates the pastor may lind relief
and strength, and return with his for
mer energy and carry on the work he
has SO successfully promoted thus far.
The following is the paper read by one
of the ladies of the aid society:
East Barre VT, Nov. 20. 80
Mr.. Jackson, Dear Pastor:-It is
with feelings of regret that we learn
your associations with us must, for a
time be severed.
We know that since your soJOurn
with us your efforts have been unremlt-
ting in our behalf and that they have
been successful we have ample proof.
Success, in the face of difficulties
which would have daunted one less
courageous, prove that you are a
worthy armOr bearer.
No doubt you have often felt like
the pinioned eagle, as hampered by
physical disability and perhaps want
of cooperation; your apparent success
is not what you anticipated or would
wish. still the future alone can tell
the harvest.
We wish our recognition of you had
not been always SO silent and we can
not now let you 60 without telling
YOU in words what we many times
have thought that we admire youl
scholarship, are made better by yoll
preaching and that your steady, un'
ostentatious fultillment of duty, de-
spite frequent physical inability
will speak for all time and BID us "G'
and do likewise"
Accompanying this Small symbol OF
our regard is our joint wish that the
balmy Texan breezes may invigoratt
your body and soothe your mind; tEa'
your vitality will keep pace with you
will and ambition.
Assuring you of our regret at you
departure and that your return Will b'
welcome, we wish you God speed OF
your Journey.
