Out Appropriation.
Washington, Jan. 9.-The house to-
day reversed the decision of the COM
mittee Of the whole last Friday, when
the appropriation for the support of the
civil service commission was stricken
out Of the legislative executive and jul
dicial appropriation bill. In commit
tee, where members do not go on rec
ord, the appropriation was stricken out
by vote of 81 to 81. To-day when the
roll was called the appropriation was
restored, the motion to strike out being
defeated, IS to 119. The house to-day,
by special order, decided to proceed
with the consideration of the naval per-
sonnet bill as soon as the bill for the
codification of the laws of Alaska was
out Of the way. About seventy addi-
tional pages of the latter bill were COW
cred to-day, leaving almost 100 pages

Arrested for Forgery.

j. Davis, former resident OF Wood
stock but who for the past few months had
been living in Springfield, was arrested
W ednesday of last week in Montreal for
forgery to the amount OF $24O on the First
National bank of Springfield.
The check was cashed by the National
bank of Claremont, and Davis left tor
Montreal, where he was joined later by bis
wife, whom he expected, and by Officer
Hart Of Springfield, whom he did not ex-
pect. The wife, upon her arrival in the
city, was closely Swallowed by the officer,
who communicated with the detective fierce
of Montreal, and the arrest was mady al
the very house which the woman entered
Hart appeared before the extraditior
commissioner and the case was remanded
awaiting the papers from Washington.

Ribbons to be Prominent In Fall
Millinery.

1t is by no means an unimportant feature
of the latest creations that the trimming
often includes ribbon. There is every
probability that these are about to take
signal revenge for the neglect IN which
they have been held throughout more than
two seasons. The ribbon manufacturers
are chiefly responsible for thi, reaction
Their new productions, brought out for
late summer and autumn, are in all ways
admirable, and deserve patronage. In the
first rank stand the warp printed Powered
ribbons mostly shown in Pompadour and
other delicate combinations Of color on
white or very light grounds, and edged
with plain bands or else fringed. Others,
also with light grounds, and printed in the
same way, with bouquets of field flowers
and wheat ears, fruits, flowers, or foliage,
are interviewer with lines of black scoring
the design lengthways. Plain ribbons are
sometimes divided into bands OF two col
ors or shades, with fringe on one or both
edges. Those with narrow bands of OPEN
work are in much request; they are made
in ribbons of different textures-pongee,
foulard, taffetas merveilleux-and are self
colored. In the lighter textures they have
more the appearance of bands of material
with fancy hemstitched borders than rib
bons.
A capeline exhibited is trimmed with
this sort of ribbon, which forms bow in
front of the crown, and is then passed
through the straw over the ears and tied
under the chin. Black ribbon velvet is
used for the trimming quilting that sur
rounds the edges of the crown and brim;
this i, in much request in all widths, while
other ribbons. plain and figured, are only
shown in medium wide and wide widths.
A, in the case of feathers, now and again
the brush comes into play, and plain or
shaded ribbons are touched up with body
color. Milliners also (this work is gener-
ally accomplished by them) sketch out
simple outline patterns on the ribbon and

Why Do Potatoes Blight and Rot?

1t was supposed until recently that all of
the blighting and rotting of potatoes was due
to one and the same cause, but investigations
at the Vermont experiment station during
the past decade have shown that there are
several causes which may act separately or
in combination to bring about the destruc-
ton of the potato crop. If the injury leads
to the death of the leaves it is called a blight
if it destroys the tubers it is termed rot.
There are at least five kinds of blight and
two kinds of rot against which the Vermont
potato grower must guard-and in addition
the potato scab.
Prof. Jones of the experiment station, so as
to enable any farmer to know which diseases
he has to deal with. They usually occur in
the order here given:
O. Arsenical Poisoning. Due to Excess
sive application of paris green. Commonly
causes brown or black "burned' spots on the
leaves. These may not appear until several
days after the poison is applied. There is
| much more injury from this cause than is
generally supposed and sometimes the plants
| are killed outright Remedy: Apply paris
green in more dilute form and more uni
| formly.
(2). Early Blight. This is fungus dis.
| ease which causes spots much like those
caused by the paris green. 1t may cause
complete destruction of the tops. 1t never

90. Late Blight and Rot. Every Yer
mont farmer knows and breads this old
enemy. 1t requires warm, rainy or "muggy'
weather for its development, but under favor,
able conditions will sweep over field and
destroy every plant in a few days. 1t is g
fungus. The same fungus causes both the
late blight and the rot. Remedy: Bordeaux

| tive and will fully protect the crop on any
soil and in any season. This has been shown
by nine years. experience at the experiment
| station.
a.. Tip-Burn. 1t is very common, es.
peclally in dry seasons or when hot, dry
weather follows wet period, for the leaves
to ''burn,'" especially at the tips and margins.
| This trouble is worse when the leaves are
badly eaten by insects. Remedy: Attention
to proper cultivation, and spraying with bor-
deaux-paris-green mixture.
(5). The Brown Rot is bacterial disease,
causing the willing and death of the stems,
followed by wet rot of the tubers. This is
very destructive in the south and occurs in
the Hudson Valley of New York state. The
experiment station experts have not yet seen
it in Vermont, however.

Lake Sunapee.

An excursion party from Claremont made
the trip of the lake with band of music on
Friday evening.
Among the great questions that have
been discussed and settled here this season
on the veranda or at the breakfast table is
that choir of singers and quire of sing
ers are one and the same thing.
Wallac e White and family expect to
move this week into their new cottage on
Great Island, and G. H. Sawyer and fam
lily will move from the Kemp cottage to the
cottage they recently bought OF Mr.. White
on Bay Point. 1t is understood that Rev.
DR.. Davis and family Of Springfield will &C.
cupy the Brockway cottage on Great
Island during August.
Entertainments and novelties have pre-
vailed somewhat during the past week. On
Monday evening Of last week the first
moonlight excursion was given by the
steamer Wenonah. On Thursday evening
the steamer Armenia White gave an ex-
cursion of the lake. On both occasions
some of the cottagers responded with IL
Limitations and fireworks. Each OF the
above named steamers are now accom-
panied by an orchestra every day, making
the trips very agreeable. There is also an
increased number of smaller craft, steam,
naptha, gasoline and sail, and in good
weather and breezes to fit the lake is be-
coming lively.
The greatest entertainment of the week,
however, was natures own exhibit on Fri
day evening. Showers in all directions had
prevailed but only few dashes of rain fell
on the lake. A huge cloud hung over the
hills and behind this cloud natures own
electric works gave most magnificent
pyrotechnic display. There were shooting
balls, zigzag chains, piercing angles and
sometimes shafts rolling like the aurora,
and all so continuous as to be in constant
view, the cloud being the stage and the
cottagers the audience OF scene SO grand
as to need the most expert electrician to
describe.
The pet squirrel ha, made hi, annual ap.
pearance at some of the cottages and is
generally received with favor. They are
wild but will give their confidence to those
who treat them kindly. The other day
Francis Blake. seven years and son of our
well known artist in Bellows Falls, had lust
arrived when he was promptly called upon
by one of these squirrels. Young Francis
placed peanut on top of his head. His
caller soon climbed to his knee, then to his
shoulder, thence to the summit OF his head
where he seized and bore off the prize. A
gentleman was cracking butternuts the
other day and carefully laying them in a
pan, during which one of these squirrels
took possession of the pan.

Choice WhiSkey Samples.

The friends of c. w. Scarf of Burling.
ton, an official of the New England Tele-
phone company, who is generally well
known, are telling story of him which is
well worth repeating:
Last Christmas Mr.Scarffs wife present
ed him with new russell grip which he
proudly carries with him on his travels
about the state. For the purpose of iden-
LITIGATION he has marked his initials "C.W.
s." on the side of the grip and that is what
caused all the trouble. Mr.. Scarf makes
frequent trips into the back towns of the
state, securing the right Of way to build
new lines. This requires hunting up the
selec'men and securing permit to use the
highways of the town. This in turn re-
quires frequent inquiries as to the where
abouts of the selectmen.
Mr.. Scarf says he has often noticed that
parties OF whom he inquired, were more in.
terested in looking at the grip under the
buggy seat than they were in telling him
where the selectman lived.
A few days ago when Mr.. Scarf was in
Plainfield he found out the cause of at least
one mans anxiety, for the native re.
marked, 81 reckon you want to sell the
town bill of wet goods for the agency
BEN as you want to see the selectman.'
MIR. Scarf was amazed at the presumption
but the native made the matter clear by
adding, "When you asked about the Sc
sectman and SEEM them letters on the ba.
| reckoned they stood for Choice Whiske,
Samples, an / was just waitin' for you t.
open up"
Since that little episode Mr.. Scarf throw

starts out for drive into the mountain
