4 View Of Edmund..

George F. Edmunds had high repu-
tation In the country as an able lawyer
and faithful and independent senator.
He had unquestionably rendered great
public service in the senate IF elected,
I believe he would have administered
the presidency ON the principles which a
large majority of the people Of Massa-
chussets held. He was an excellent de-
batter. He was very fond Of criticising
and objecting to what was proposed by
other men. He seemed never go happy
as when in opposition to the majority
Of his associates. But he possessed what
persons Of that temper commonly lack
great capacity for constructive states
manship. Any measure Of which he
was the author would be likely to &C.
complish its purpose and to stand fire.
David Davis, who was president pro
tempore Of the senate, used to say he
could always compel Edmunds to vote
in the negative on question by put
ting the question in the old New Eng
land fashion, Contrary minded will
say nc" for Edmunds was always con-
trary minded. I once told him, borrow
ing saying of an Englishman, that if
George Edmunds were the only man in
the world George would quarrel with
Edmunds. George F. Hoar, in

Copper in Orange County.

The following item which was published
in the Bradford Opinion will be of special in
terest to those who are familiar with the past
history of the copper industry of our state.
"Mr. Ogden, of the firm of Garretson,
Smith & Ogden, who are working dumps at
Cnpperfield, was in town recently. The firm
commenced orerations about three weeks
ago and are working over the dumps that are

Among the many curious things
noted by the actuaries the following
are few of the most interesting. Wo-
men have a much better prospect Of
long life than men, and the chances Of
married people are distinctly higher
than those Of bachelors and old maids
From the data provided by the rec
ords Of various churches it has been de-
duced that the peaceful Quakers have
most frequently received the blessings
Of long life promised in the fifth COM

men. Annuitants as a class live from
three to five years longer than other
people. and this is not due to human
perversity, as some humorists have sug-
gested. 1t is undoubtedly due to the
Lack Of worry regarding the changes OF

A Man of Recourse.

A big, uncouth looking stranger, with
shoulders like Hercules, walked into a
department store late one afternoon,
and, after gazing about minute. STEP
ped up to salesman and made known
his wish to buy shirt. A couple OF
samples were shown him, and he in
formed the salesman that either one
would do.
It was an article that sold for 81. so,
and in making payment the stranger
pulled from his hip pocket huge roll
of bills. He apparently SKINNED them
over in search of small bill, but he
could not find one of less denomination
than $500. One of these was handed
the surprised salesman, but he arose to
the occasion and sent it away with the
cashboy. When the change came, it
was nearly all in small bills. The stran-
ger interrupted the salesman in his
work of counting the bills by reaching
for the pile and wadding it into his hip
pocket.
"Oh, I guess it's all right, and you
give that shirt to porter if you can
find one big enough to wear it. All I
wanted was the change. You see, it
was after banking hours, and I am a
man of resources. Good day. "-Phila-

Sugar at Wilmington.

Wilmington's maple sugar makers are said
to derive more revenue from their crop than
any other town Of equal size in America. The
trade in maple sugar in that little town may
be said to be perpetual, as the crop is mar.
keted the year round by two or three mer.
chants there, who put up the sweet to suit
customers, either in glass, tin or in attractive
cakes. Sugar making there is carried on on
scientific principles, and the manufacturer
who is not provided with the latest and most
improved appliances for gathering the sap
and converting it into sugar is not reckoned
among successful competitors. What the best
sugar makers in Wilmington do not know
about manufacturing and marketing is hard
ly worth investigation. They generally an.
ticipate good season with degree of accu.
racy warranting extra preparation. The con-
verting of strip into cake sugar has become q
profitable industry. Two firms in Whining
ton handle tons Of the maple product in this
way, beng provided with full-rigged estab
lishment for boiling and caking. They buy
the strip from the farmers as desired, and
send the sugar to every state in the union as
we'll as to foreign countries. Thus the manu-
facturer of strip finds ready market for his
crop all seasons of the year, and the consum-
er gets his sugar, with favor almost as fine
and palatable as the early spring product.
