Stabbing Affair at Norwich.

Blood was shed in an alteration between
Robert Emerton and S N. Bugbee at Nor
wich Saturday afternoon. Emerton is dead
from knife wounds, and Bugbee is in the
lookup at White River Junction accused of
the murder. The trouble occurred in the
grocery of l. l.. Nile, father in-law of
Emerton, in which Bugbee, who is fish
dealer at Wilder, was trading. Emerton
was an employe at Dartmouth College at
Hanover, N. H., in the heating plant.
Some words passed between Emerton and
Bugbee, and the former left the store,
being followed by Bugbee. The dispute
was resumed when Bugbee called Emerton
back, using, it is SAID, vile epithets which
the latter resented vocally, and then knock
ing Bugbee to the ground. The latter on
rising drew a knife, and in the mix-up
which followed it is believed that Bugbee
stabbed Emerton in the abdomen, the
blade reaching vital part, as Emerton
fell back and died before aid could be
gi, en- him. Bugbee left town at once, but
little later at Hanover, Officer McCauley
placed him under arrest and took him to
White River Junction. From appearances
Bugbee was thought to have been under
the influence of liquor, and he claims that
the knife was used in self-defense. Emer-
ton leaves widow and two children.

Vermont Press Association.

The following pertinent question has
been raised by the Barre Telegram:
"What can some of the members of
the Vermont Press Association say in justi-
fication of their act in holding their annual
meeting before the time named in the call,
electing its officers and dispensing with an
attractive program prepared, from the DIS
cu'slon OF which much benefit might have
been derivedP This too without notifyinehe
members of the association not present.
but allowing G considerable number to
spend their time and money in going to
Burlington to attend the meeting. The
fact that those members had been surfeted
at political banquet the night before and
wished to seek the seclusion of their own
domiciles is pretty thin excuse"
The fact i, that the Vermont Pres.
Association has had 'pretty thin excuse''
for existence at all during the past five
years or more. The meetings of the a.so-
citation have been made occasions for eat
ing and smoking and sewing circle gossip
The members have been notified about a
week in advance that meeting would be
held at certain place on a certain AFTER
noon and evening, and that a splendid pro-
gram had been arranged. These members
travel hundred miles more or less, only
to find that the meeting is the tail-end,
atterthought-pantomime of some political
demonstration. The "splendid program"
consists of lunch with plenty of cigars,
and a post prandial exercise usually
dubbed "an informal discussion" 1t gen.
orally proves very informal indeed, in fact
so much so, that if those present carry
home single useful idea it is by accident.
Vermont newspaper men are bright fell
lows, but, like most other bright fellows.
their attempt to discuss weighty themes on
five minutes notice have brassy sound.
The association as power in the state has
accomplished very little. A feeble effort
was made last year to secure the enact
ment OF law insuring to newspaper pub
bshers fair remuneration for distributing
the session laws. The bill became a law
but by the omission of the little phrase.
'this act shall take effect from its passage "
publishers will derive no benefit until
another legislature meets and Albums.
We see no good reason why the meetings
cannot be made of such interest that MEM
bers cannot afford to be absent, and III,
association made power in the civic life
of the state This consummation will re-
qurA hard work and lots of it. Member.
must be given ample notice of meetings
and program provided on which mich
time and careful thought has been expand-
ed. The good things of life come dear.

A WHOLE VILLAGE
Attacked by Grip-0ne Family Els.
capeS by Using Pe.ru-pa.

WINoNA, STARK Co., IND.
During the winter 1 and my fam.
lily of six were taken with la grippe,
The disease was very prevalent at that
time in the village where 1 resided,
nearly everyone being sick with it..
Our doctors treated it as best they could,
but were very unsuccessful in the treat
ment of it. AS soon as my family were
taken sick went to the drugstore and
bought six bottles of Pe-ru-na, and we
all took it according to the directions
given on the bottle; and although our
cases seemed to be more than usually
violent in the outset, yet our recovery
was prompt, and we were all well much
sooner than those who were treated by
the regular physicians.
Many people died of this la grippe dur
ing this epidemic, and few if any, were
sick so short a time as myself and
family. After we were all well we had
ono bottle of Pe-ru-na left.

She Got the Claret.

A good story about liquor being bought
for chemical purposes is told by E. Seiden,
Burlingtons late city agent.
"One day prominent Burlington ply
sician's wife came to me to ask how she
could obtain some liquor. I told her l
could sell it for medic nal, chemical or me-
chanical purposes. Said she: Now, Mr..
Selden, l want some claret for chemical
use. You may think it strange that l
should want it for this purpose, but really
am not joking. You see, we eat rich food,
and then we drink claret. The claret has
chemical action on the food and it pre-
vents us from becoming ILL"
She got the claret.

During the past three or four weeks III .
Montpelier Journal and the Buripuo -
Free Press have been making faces and
calling each other very disagreeable names
Here is a specimen of Free Press rhetoric
'Inasmuch as the Journal began its pres
ent troubled existence as an electrified
corpse and has shown no real signs o. life
having some of its editorial thinking dome
at long distance by freight it is not strange
that many people should regard it as mort
bund or that its immediate relatives, BEING
afraid to trust it, should deem a poltica |
guardian necessary" The next day after
this appeared in the Free Press, the jour.
nal came out with column and half ed !
torial endorsing Hon. W. P. Dillingham;
for the senate, and day later the Free
Press let loose Dillingham; broad.ide.
The Free Press copied what the Journal
had to say and the Journal copied the
Free Press editorial, and brotherly love
now prevails. But an interesting question
is, whether or not the Dillingham; editorial
in the Journal was the work of the ''politi-
cal guardian"

In its announcement of change from
a semi-weekly to a weekly paper the Ben
nington Banner says: 1.-The main reason
is because the people themselves seem to
be unable to get out of the long estab-
lished habit of reading a weekly paper.
While we have received many words Of
encouragement from our readers, many
have spoken about the Banner, stating
their preferences for the form of weekly,
which does not go as much into details,
but in reality gives as much news in more
condensed form. The additional expense
of a semi-weekly does not receive enough
extra encouragement to compensate the
publisher for the outlay" The Banner,
however, makes the mistake of reducing
its subscription price from $3.50 to 81 per
year. A weekly paper not worth 81 so
per year is too cheap to read or to publish.
