versing In the cornhelds. AS he drew
nearer he recognized McNau aras voice
and called to him. Before MCNAMARA had
time to reply, Carey noticed something ly-
ing on the track which was indistnCt in
the darkness. On STOPPING down and at
tempting to pick it up, he to his horror,
found that 1t was a human limb. 1t flashed
through his mind that Mcnamara had been
struck by the train that had just passed
and that the accident was unknown to the
trainmen. He called to the injured man to
keep up his courage az he was going for as
sistance.
Mr.. Carey ran to this city and at at once
went to the police station hoping to get aid
there but found none of the police in the
office or vicinity. He then went to the sta
BIZ ot e l.. Putney and on the way met DR..
@. Il. Chandler whom he sent to aid the
injured man following later with team
and several whom he had aroused.
Ia the meantime DR.. M. f. Mcclure had
arrived. Lights were procured and the
physicians found that Mcnamara had lost
his left leg just below the knee and his
right just above. A bad cut appeared on
the left temple and another on the right
forearm. He was conveyed to the Heaton
Hospital little past one o'clock. He was
conscious but in such pain and so weak
from the loss OF blood that when asked how
he came to be struck by the train, he ans
swered YEARLY that he did not know.
The physicians could hold out no hope
for his recovery and he died in few hours.
The remains were conveyed to the under
taking rooms of Johonnotts & Hall, where
they were viewed this morning by the
friends OF the deceased.
That the man was not struck by the en-
CINE is firmly believed by his friends and
they give as their reasons for so thinking
the facts that neither the engineer nor fire.

Marching Home.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug, 3 - The
Pennsylvania troops disembarked this
morning from the transport Senator.
Thousands of people lined the streets
and mighty cheer greeted the boys as
they passed. Flags were waved as the
soldiers marched between the lines of
spectators and in some places strings
of cows bells had been suspended from
the windows to add to the din.
The boys were attired in blue uni
forms and carried their blankets and
rifles. The battle flag of the Pennsyl-
vanians torn, shot, riddled and almost
a wreck, excited more admiration than
anything else. AS soon as the colo,
bearer came into sight carrying the
dingy and frayed piece of silk, cheer,
mightier if possible than any which
had been given the boys, rang out and
reverherated along the ,hrongs, who
had gathered to welcome the soldiers
The parade was reviewed by General
Shafter and committee of welcome
from Pen nsylvania. The boys will be
mustered out as soon as possible and
hurried to their homes in special trains

Welcome to Vermont.

BLUFF POINT, n. Y, August a.
Governor Smith called on President
Mckinley to-day to tender to him the
freedom of the State of Vermont, and
to urge him to revisit it. The COVER.
nor was conveyed to Bluff Point in DR..
Webb's yacht, the Elfrida. He was ac-
companied by Gen. T. S. Peck, DR..
Webb being prevented by sudden in.
disposition. In his absence Mrs. Webb
did the honors of the yacht. The gen.
tlemen were received by President
Mckinley in the hotel annex and
spent a pleasant half-hour with him.
He said that Mrs. Mckinley had de-
cdedly improved since her coming to
Hotel Champlain and she had been out
TO ride that morning; also that he was
having grateful rest.
The President gave Governor Smith
no positive assurance that he would
visit Vermont. He said the guests of
Hotel Champlain and everybody con-
nected with it are very considerate of
their quiet and comfort and that they
were thoroughly enjoying the bracing
air and delightful scenery.
DR.. w. Seward Webb has rendered
the Elfrida to President Mckinley for
his use the coming week. She will be
at the dock at Bluff Point next Mon.
day morning, and be at the sole dispo.
sal of the President during the week
graceful attention, which has beer
accepted by the President with cordial
appreciation.

Shocking Accident.

John McNsmara, an employee at the
granite sheds of Lynch Brothers, was run
over by the Central Vermont train from
Barre TO this city at 11:40 Thursday night.
Both legs were cut off and he died FRIDAY
morning at five O'Clock at the Heaton hos
pital.
1t appears that MCNAMARA had been Wis
ting friends at the Pioneer Thursday even
ing and had started for home via the rail-
road track, which was a shorter route, lust
before the Central Vermont train from
Barre was due and, az investigation tends
TO prove, was overtaken by the train in the
bridge near the Capitol Creamery. The
train was running at low rate of speed
and he attempted to board one OF the cars,
but was drawn under the wheels and car
ried to point about half way between the
bridge and the creamery when he was re-
leased. His body rolled down the incline
from the track to the edge OF an adjacent
cornfield, where the injured man was found
about midnight by Patrick Carey, who was
returning home via the railroad track.
AS Mr.. Carey approached the spot he
heard talking as though some one was con-

The Governor and the Guns.

Mayor Senter has received from Gov.
Smith the subjoined reply TO the letter he
recently addressed to His Excelency in
the matter of the Spanish guns and the
joint resolution of the Legislatures:
ST.. ALBANs, August /, 1899
John III. Senter, Esq,
Mayor, Montpelier, Vt,
My dear MI Mayor:-I have your favor
OF the 31st ult. and quite agree with what
you say in regard to the guns in question,
and IL would seem TO me a very appropri-
ate thing for the State to do to mount them
on the State House grounds The point
that troubles me. however, is the lack OF an
appropriation to pay for the transfer.
Would the city of Montpelier be willing
to incur this expense in view of the indi-
rect benefit received by having the guns To-
Gated at Montpelier II 80 l will be glad
to cooperate with you in bringing about
the desired result Very truly yours,
K. q. SMITH.
Competent lawyers and persons familiar
with and having large experience In State
affairs, express the opinion that there Is no
legal obstacle in the way of the Governors
proceeding under the joint resolution to pro-
cure the guns and incur all the expenses of
transportation and mounting. The author
ity given the auditor under the resolution
to audit the bills Is pronounced ample
not only by the mayor in his capacity
as lawyer, but by other lawyers OF the
best competency to judge. Even IL the au-
thority OF the Governor or auditor in the
matter were clouded by a doubt, the Legis-
lature would ratify with whoop and a
hurrah their favorable action in procuring
the trophies and paying all the bills-and
all the people would say Amenl Go ahead,
Governor Smith
Chapter two, section seventeen, OF the
Constitution declares that no money shall
be drawn out of the treasury unless APP
propriated by an act of the Legislature.
The Legislature, at its last session, adopted
joint resolution providing for the acquisi-
ton by the State of certain guns as trophies
OF Dewey's victory in Manila bay, and au.
thorized and directed the auditor to pass
the bills alo ig for payment. By act num-
Der IL of the laws Of 1898, the Legislature
appropriated sum not exceeding $3.50, 00C
for the fiscal year 1898 .'99. and S475, 900 fol-
the year 1899 and 1900, and SIT 900 for the
period from the end of the fiscal year in
1900 to December 1, 1900, "for the purpose
OF paying such demands against the State
as may be allowed by the auditor OF ac
counts"
Here seems to be all the authority, con
stitutional and legislative, the Governor
needs for going ahead and completing tn,

A Girls Allowance.

A girl can scarcely be too young to
have some idea of the value of money,
and weekly allowance will teach her
the pleasure of providing little gifts
and knicknacks out of her own pocket.
At the age of fifteen or sixteen years
every girl should have an allowance,
out of which she should buy her own
gloves, stationery, ribbons, &c. This
will teach her the use her pocket mon
ey can be put to, and will save her the
annoyance of coming to her parents
foc everp penny she spends, and every
gift she bestows. AS she gets older her
allowance should include money for
her entire wardrobe. Such an allow
ance should be probationary, and
should depend upon the girls iudg-
ment and care in the choosing of her
clothes during the period when the
irst allowance is spent. She must
learn that she should keep an account
of every penny she spends. This will
teach her many things in the handling
of money, and she will profit by her
mistakes, becoming much wiser
through the experience.

There was plenty of refrigerated meat
