Pills, the Remedy which had cured
him. He advised Mr.. Zeller to try
them, with the result that after seven
boxes had been used, he was entirely
well, and able to work.
In an interview Mr.. Zeller states:

this affliction, being often kept awake

able to work. tried several of the
advertised remedies, and found that
they did me no earthly good. Finally,
a member of our Order, who had been
cured of Kidney Disease by Dodd's
Kidney Pills brought me a box, and
asked me to try them. I had little
faith in them, but as drowning man
grasps at straw to help him, so 1
took the Pills. 1 used seven boxes,

Naturally, Mr.. Zeller feels very
grateful, and his complete recovery
has delighted his many friends, and
none more than the good Brother.

NOT CAUSED BY WIRES.

Montpelier, April 5.-Albert Tuttle
the executor of the Langdon estate,
gave out signed statement regarding
the written report made to him by
the electrical experts employed to as
certain the cause OF recent fire in the
new Langdon block.
1t is in substance that the electri-
clans were unable t. locate the cause
of the fire. All are agreed that the
electric wiring had been done in a
careful manner and according to the
the latest insurabia rules. They
found no grounds, leaks, or short cir
cults, and the test of the voltage
showed standard pressure. The work,
and materials used, was first class and
all connections perfect. This explodes
the theory that the fire was caused by
electric wires and leaves it's origin
still mystery.

TROUBLE AGAIN.
The Blacksmlths on Piece Fires not
Satisfied.

The understanding for the tool
sharpeners at the time of the passage
of the new agreement between the G.
G.. n. o., and the manufacturers
in Barre, was that the sharpeners were
to receive an increase in accordance
with that granted the granite cutters
viz, 49, per cent increase on piece
fires. This means that men who
worked last year for 32 cents should
receive 81, and those who received 35
last year should receive Al cents this
year for day work.
The piece fires is what is making
the difficulty. When the settlement
was made the tool sharpeners asked
for 81 cents on piece fires, or 1918 per
day for IA men, but this was not ac-
cepted or ratified by the granite
manufacturers association. The only
thing which will be granted, so far, is
"a cents per man for IA men, or SO. 36
per day.
This was offered in payment yester-
day to piece men and was accepted by
them under protest.
One or two of the manufacturers
refused to pay the 81 cts. and the
blacksmith not wishing to accept any
thing less made a shut down of these
sheds.
The men who are working by the
day are perfectly satisfied as they have
received their increase, but the men
running piece fires think they are en-
titled to the increase of 16a per cent
which would give them 27 cts. per
man for IA men, but the manufact-
urers say they are entitled to only "a
cents per man for ii men.
The agreement reads that gang
shall consist of fourteen and not more
than sixteen.
The committee of the tool sharpen
ers and that of the granite manufac-
turers held a lengthy meeting last
night, but nothing definite was ar
rived at.

Washington, April 5.--Admiral George
Dewey has confirmed an interview pub
lished in the New York World to the eff.
feet that he would accept the presidency
Of the United States should the Ameri-
can people desire him to fill that office.
He refused to make any further state
ment.
The following is what Admiral Dewey
SAID i'll answer to questions OF The
Worlds correspondents:
II realize that the time has arrived
when | must definitely define my posi-
ton. When l arrived in this country last
September, said then that nothing would
induce me to be a candidate for the pres
idency. Since then. however, have had
the leisure and inclination to study the
matter and have reached a different con-
clusion, inasmuch as so many assurances
have come to me from my countrymen
that l would be acceptable as a candi-
date for this great Office. If the Ameri-
can people want me for this high office,
shall be only too willing to serve them.
1t is the highest honor in the gift of this
nation What citizen would refuse it:
Since studying this subject l am con.
vinced that the Office of the president is
not such very difficult one to fill. his
duties being mainly to execute the laws
of congress. Should be chosen for this
exalted position l would execute the
laws of congress as faithfully as l have
always executed the orders of my supe-
riOrs."
When asked upon what platform he
would stand. the admiral replied
II think l have said enough at this
time and possibly too much"
1t is an open secret that for several
months the admiral's charming wife has
been urging her husband to take an ac-
tive part in public affairs Mrs. Dewey
is one of the most ambitious women in

lieves in her famous husband and thinks
that no position is too great for him.
