They used to tell good story about
Boutelle in connection with the cam.
paisn of 1884. He idolized Blaine, and
for years there was bad blood between
him and Reed, because Reed acted as
though he thought himself as great as,
or greater than. the plumed knight.
The story is that Boutelle accompa-

1851. When the special pulled out Of
New York. Boutellc rushed over to
Blaine's seat, his face white with an
ger ana his voice vibrant with passion.
Holding in his trembling hands Il COW
of the New York Tribune he pointed
to an article and exclaimed, "Was
there ever such fatuous laundering ms
that"
For half an hour he commented on
the article to the half score persons
who had gathered round. The Tribune
was Blaine's chief organ, as every one
knew, but the fiery Yankee of French
extraction continued to pour hot shot
into it. Finally Blaine said, Charley,
DO you know who wrote that and pro-

no. was the answer, "but take it
that it was Whitelaw Reid or some
other internal fool"
You are wrong, Charley" replied
Blaine. II wrote it and had The Trib-

James A. Herne's two daughters are
to appear with their distinguished
father in the Forthcoming perform
ance of that great Herne play, Sag
Harbor, at the opera house next
Monday night. These two young
women have been SO much talked
about in New York and in Boston
during the extraordinarily long run
of Sag Harbor, that brief word
about each should prove interesting at
this time. Miss Julia Herne, the
elder of the two daughters, plays the
leading emotional role of Martha
Reese in. Sag Harbor, though now but
10 years old. She is an extremely
beautiful young woman with a wealth
of golden hair and the bluest of blue
eyes. Miss Herne has been compared
as an actress with her talented
who as Katharine Cochrane,
was the original Margaret Fleming,
and not SO many years ago was con.
sidered to be one of the very best emo
tional actresses in America.

William JoPP.
Well Known Foot Ball Player Sur
prised.

About fifty of the friends of VIM
Jopp got together last night and sur
prised him at his boarding place, at
Mrs. James Mahoney's residence on
Silver st. The sturdy athlete re-
ceived the party in his usual hearty
manner, but he was completely sur.
prised nevertheless.
The affair was a very pleasant one
and greatly enjoyed by all. Soon
after the guests had arrived Thomas
Brock called the party to order, and
in fitting speech presented Mr.. Jopp
in behalf of the company with an ele-
giant gold chain and charm as token
of the high esteem in which he is
held by his many friends. Mr.. Jopp
made short response thanking his
friends for their kind remembrance
and bidding all to have good time.
The evening was passed in song and
dancing, Alex Williamson furnishing
the music for the latter. Son gs were
rendered by the following gentlemen:
Alex Boddam Thomson, Alex Aber-
deem Thomson, James MEG Alex
Wilson, James Dickie, William Jopp,
Alex Williamson and James Lamont.
There were dances by James Nc
Naughton and Alex Milne.
The occasion was Mr.. Jopps 3Oth
birthday. AS star foot ball player
no one in Barre is better known
than Mr.. Jopp. He has been the
main stay of the Rangers since the
organization of that club, and was
a'well known athlete in Scotland.
He started to play foot ball in 1887
with the Play Fair club in Aberdeen.
He remained with them three years.
He next played with the Victoria
United for one year and then played
wish the Aberdeen Orions, who won
the cup for Aberdeen, and Mr.. Jopp,
together with James Lamont, are the
only Barre men who carry a medal for
that honor today.

The eyes of the civilized world are
in these days turned toward famine
stricken India where many are per-
ishing for want of food. The people
had scarcely recovered from the sore
famine of three years ago when the
usual rainy season again fails them.
Dire distress is upon the land. The
people are suffering and dying in
spite of all the nations of the earth
are doing to relieve them. Their
distress is not confined to the vista
ton of famine but the pestilence
which began to make itself felt four
years ago continues to spread with no
immediate prospect of abatement.
This in "A peculiar manner appeals to

Has Won Their Confidence.

Tho manner in which Frank Snow.
the peanut man. has secured the conn
d.ncr Of the doves about town. is some
thing that is attracting great deal
Of attention at the present time. He
began some time ago to feed them as
they came to that locality looking for
an early morning meal. furnishing
them with unacCustomed peanuts from
his stand. When he first threw
the crushed peanut meats t. the birds
they We're suspicious, but in a short
time seeing that there was no desire
to harm them. began to grow more
bold. 1t was but short time before
they had the highest confidence in Mr..
Snow, and i morning never passes now
when they do not call for their early
morning meal.
The climax was reached a short time
ago when he succeeded in winning over
one small dove, that, with a childish
desire to get its full share, began TO
come nearer and nearer, and finally
would walk up into Mr.. Shows hands
and eat peanuts from that position. 1t
even allowed the familiarity to be car
ried still further, and now does not
take offense at Mr.. Snow smoothing
its feathers. The mother dove. which
apparently is acting as a chap rome.
has seen too much of the world and
walks round ana round with angry
COOS. as she warns the daughter not u
place too much trust in any man.
The sight has attracted many in the
past week. and although the doves
have perfect confidence in the peanut
man. they have yet to learn to trust
fully the people who gather around to
lo1k on while they are at their carly

PR0Hl6lIlvE FREIGHT RATES
Deter Local Coal Dealers from Ordering Win
ters Coal Supply.

The coal dealers have stopped order
ing coal on account of high freights
by water. and unless there is n change
in the rates no more coal will be or
dcred for some time. The freights at
the present time are higher than they
have been for Two years. The high
rate NJ 1895 was caused by the war
scare, the captains fearing their
schooncrs would be fired m by the
phantom Spanish fleet. The high
freight rate this time is caused by the
lack of return cargOes. There is moth
ing for the schooners to take back
when they once come here. as the
quarrirs ana lumber mills are MT run
ming. ana the owners are demanding
S1.50 ton. \ short time ago, one Of
the local dealers had a chance to char
ter Il schooner for $50 ton. but re-
fused to take the schooner at that
price.
The dealers have coal enough on
hand To last them for long time and
there il not the slightest fear that
there will De shortage for several
months yet. As the price II coal
promises to remain the same with the
wholesalers. the retailers will not orde"
for some time and will hold off having
their coal come until the rates drop
t. what they think is reasonable rate.
A fair price is thought to be 81 ton,
but cases have been known when the
