tics with the men working at the plant

ga Representative Democrat"

The Financial Review of New York has
the following pleasant notice of one of
our best known citizens:
The recent action taken by the repre-
sentatives in Vermont, of the Demo.
cratic party, at their state convention in
Montpelier, with respect to the nomna-
ton OF state officers, is particularly graf
flying, because it would seem from the
up hill tight that Democrats always
nave IN that state, that they should be
demoralized. Nevertheless, they have
chosen in Elisha May, of st. Johnsbury,
tor state treasurer, a wholly representa-.
tive Democrat whose qualifications for
the responsibility he is named for by his
party cannot be called into question.
Mr.. May has been faithful to the princi.
pies advocated by his party, and has
been earnest and untiring in his fighting.
de would reflect credit upon those who
nominated him, should he, owing to an
exceptional personal popularity, prove
successful despite the strong RepubIi.
cansm of his state"

The Death of a Pioneer.

The San Francisco Chronicle has the
following account of the death of Milo
J. Aver, native of st. Johnsbury. which
occurred on June IS:
Another California pioneer passed
away yesterday when Milo J. Aver, the
veteran mllrlght and mechanic and long
resident OF Calaveras and Sierra counties,
died IN this city, aged 70 years. The local
surviving Argonauts of his time will as
semole at Pioneer Hall at 2o'clock tomor-
row afternoon to do honor to his memory.
and his TOUR children and seventeen
grandchildren will be among the chief
mourners to accompany the possession
out to the Masonic Cemetery, where
the remains are to be inferred.
Milo Aver came from Caledonia conn
ty, Vermont, and was one of a party of
twenty hive young men who started from
Boston, in January, 1849, and in seven
months crossed the continent to the
land OF promised gold. D. E. Esterbrook
IS the only survivor. Some of the others
well known in this state were the late
David Staples. president of the Firemen's
FUND Insurance Company, the late c.
F. Felch and the late Mr.. Sweetzer of
Sacramento.
In August, 1S49, Aver arrived in Sac.
ramento. There he met DR.. Aver. who

Ayers and Esterbrook struck out for the
M " hill diggings. There they
did their first mining. Later Milo Aver
moved INTO Sierra county and became
one OF the founders and builders of the
town OF Downieville. 1t was there. in
1894, he lost his eight-year-old son
FRANK, who was drowned in a MINING
shaft. Nine years later another eight, |
year-old son, named Frank in memory
OF the lost child, was drowned in the
Iuba river. The other children all of

Parochial School Examination,

After passing very successful examina-
tions last week the boys of the ParochiaI
school gave pleasing entertainment to
their parents and friends in St. Agnes
Hall. The following program was per-
formed in a manner that assured all
present of the careful training the bows
had had during the term just finished:
Welcome.
Chant, A nos Parents
Recitation, How | Grow,
Chant Les Jours de Notre enhance.
Recitation, My Time Table
Motion song.
Recitation. Les vingt sons du bon Dieu.
vacation Song.
Essay, The Philippines
Song, In gathering roses
Essay, Our Standing Army
Finale, The Red, White and Blue
Arthur Surgeons essay, 1.-The Philip
pines" and William Landrvs "Our
Standing Army" were, considering the
ages of the boys, mastery pieces. After
the entertainment the teachers invited
those present to examine the drawing
and school work of the pupils. This ex.
hibitlon, in the beauty and finish of the
work, was one of the most remarkable
OF the school. Among the many which
deserve notice we mention the colored
physical map of New England drawn by
z. Racette, A. Surgeon, A. Laygne, W.
Landry, E. Gagnon and E. Richard, as
worthy of special praise, as was also
The Storm" crayon by A. Lavigne.
Judging by the work done the bows
OF the Parochial school under the direc-
ton OF Reverend S. S. Michaud, and his
able staff of teachers, have lett nothing
undone either with regard to discipline
or study. Those who had the good for
tune to be present at the entertainment
returned highly satisfied with the school
which they found could compete with
any OF its kind.
