Heirs Wanted.

Chief of Police Tuttle of Montpelier
has received letter of inquiry from
parties in Yuma, Ari., asking about the
heirs of John Thomas, wealthy ranch
man residing in Arizona, who died in
December, 1898. His heirs reside in
Vermont and goOd-sized fortune awaits
them if they can be found. The letter is
signed by Elliot Stewart of Yuma, Ari.,
who has been requested by The probate
court to endeavor to find TIE legal heirs.
Thomas made a will in favor of one. j. ohm
Speere, not having recognized any of his
relatives, thus making the will easy to
contest. The amount of the property is
&'-nown but Mr.. Stewart states that
it consists a ranch stocked with horses
and cattle. He writes that he is unable
to state what part of Vermont Thomas :
heirs reside in, but is positive they are in
sone part of the state. He was a great
lover of horses, but is not well spoken of.
He served term in penitentiary for horse
or cattle stealing. He left his home some
20 or % years ago, having stolen some
sheep from an uncle.-Argus.

A Book Swindle.

One of the lower courts of Boston has
rendered decision which Is of
general interest in Vermont, says the
Rutland News. This case was docketed
as Warren F. Kellogg against F. C.
Smith. Mr.. Kellogg is publisher of the
New England Magazine. and the defend
ant is ex-mayor of st. Albans. The suit
grew out of the publication of book
entitled MEN of Progress, Vermont"
and for which, 1t is claimed large
number of subscribers were obtained at
S3S each by the Misrepresentation of the
agent. He represented that the book
was to be written by Colonel G.. G..
Benedict of Burlington and to contain
the portraits and biographical sketches
of those whose names had been given the
agent by Colonel Benedict. After learn
ing the statements were false, several
subscribers in st. Adams Joined in a
letter of protest to the New England
Magazine, withdrawing their sub
scriptions. About a year later, two
agents appeared to deliver the book,
which it was claimed was cheap affair,
filled with errors and in no way came up
to the descriptions given by the agent.
All but two or three subscribers in that
city refused to accept the book, and
joined in a chancery proceeding against
the New England Magazine. Judge
Munson granted temporary Injunction
restraining the publishers from collecting
the money, and later the temporary in
junction was made perpetual. Mr.. Smith
was arrested for payment of his sub
scription at one time when he was in
Boston. He gave bail and the suit
| followed. The decision rendered in the
Boston court is against the publishers.
The case will be appealed but it is con-
sidered that the prospect for the defend
ant is more favorable in the higher court
than in the court below. This case has
been watched with interest throughout
Vermont, as the victims are scattered
throughout the state.

Percival w. Clement bought on S1tur-

of purchases which Will enable the Rut-

Rutland Canadian road, which the Rut-
land is building between Burlington and
Rouses Point, freight from the lakes and

There will be a summer normal school

purpose of the management to provide
two courses one of which shall require
regular recitations in English, Arith-
metic, Civcs, History, and Orthography
the other course, while presented in
lectures, will afford quizzes and conver-
sations each day on the lectures of the
preceding day. There will be two
classes in drawlng-an elementary and
an advanced. Nature work In a practi-
cal form will be furnished. They are ar

/ time and money expended there are no
better means IN Vermont for teachers to
become acquainted with the best practi-
cal ways of instructing pupils. These
opportunities are not appreciated by
some teachers and uperintendents who
have not acquainted themselves with the
character of the work and the advantages
afforded. There is such marked diff
ference between the unframed teacher
and the one who has attended summer
or training school that 1t is noticeable
upon the most casual visit to the school
and no verbal statement or explanation
of the fact in either case is necessary"

STORY OE A SLAVE.

To be bound hand and foot for years

she could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric
BItters, she is wonderfully improved and

Facts As To the Libretto and the Choice
of Seats.
The sale of seats for the Roman drama
to be given in the town hall Friday even
ing, May 10, began at Sterns's last Mon
day. The number already taken Is
gratifying, and if the nature and excel
lence of the presentation are understood
by the community in general. the entire
house will doubtless be checked OIL In
advance. To begin with, it should be
repeated that what is offered appeals to
everybody. If there has been feeling

Latin is essential to an enjoyment of the
play, that feeling should be set aside at

these graphic scenes.
A word should be added as to the COM
parative worth of seats. 1t is seldom
that the value of the various locations is
so nearly equal. This results from the
fact that two elements enter into the
determination, the perspective effect of
the scenery and the details of costume.
expression, and the like. As regards the
first factor, the seats improve in value to
the very back rows of the main floor and
gallery; as regards the second, they i'm

the more important, it would be difficult
to determine. AS one looks at the mag

Admiral Dewey has cabled to New

it will probably exceed any dinner ever
