SUNDAY DISTURBANCE.

Everyone was sorry for those people in church
last Sunday who were suffering with distressing
cough. A full dose Of Towns Elixir on going to
bed at night and small doses during the day will
cure the most severe cough. Whenever there is
a tickling sensation in the throat take a few
drops OF the Elixir on the tongue and let 1t run
slowly down the throat and immediate relief viii
follow. We, the undersigned, druggists, agree
to refund the money II it does not cure any
cough, cold, whOop'ng c)u Sh or throat trouble

Marble COmpAny's Trsmway over
Mountains and Forests.

The Vermont Marble company at Proc
tor has about completed a new tramway
by which sand will be brought from the
bed some three miles, to the mill. The
line extends over a mountain several hun
bred feet high, covered with forests
through which a road was cut. Under
this new arrangement bucket containing
500 pounds of sand will be received every
20 seconds. This is loaded at the pit by
machinery, and at the other end are two
separate dumping places. One Of them is
direct into cars by which sand will be
transported to the mills at West and Centre
Rutland, the other is at the large mill at
Proctor itself. The supports for the cables
are placed on solid stone foundations. The
machinery and boxes are of the latest i'm
proved kind. When completed the tram
way will be run from - o'clock Monday
morning until 1l:40 Saturday night, and
no difficulty will be experienced in getting
all the sand needed, thereby doing away
with any carting by teams The machinery
is all at Proctor and the work will be fin
ished as soon AS possible

Nathan Stowe, 10, son of Jules Stowe, was
killed Saturday evening at Ludlow by
being knocked from his bicycle by passing
carriage containing Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
West of that town. Mr.. West says he did
not see the boy until an instant before he
was struck, and although he was driving
slowly, he had no time to avoid the coils
ion. The boy, he says, succeeded in pass
ing the horse, but was struck by a wheel
and thrown clear Of the carriage, the
wheels passing over the bicycle The boy
was taken to his home where be died al
most Immediately. No marks could be
found save an abrasion of the skin over the
left ear and cheek, and a slight bruise on
the left shoulder, and death was probably
due to conclusion of the brain. Deputy
Sheriff l.. G. Howe, who was an eyewitness,
said that no blame could be attached to Mr..
West, as he was on the right side of the
road, and driving slowly. The boy, who
was too small TO reach the pedals when sit
sing on the seat of the bicycle, was riding
about standing on the pedals, and had sew
eral times during the evening narrowly es
capped being run over, as the shadow from
the large trees at either side of the street
made it almost impossible for a person driy-
ing to avoid him, especially as he was on
the wrong side of the road.

w WAsHNaToN, Oct. 24.-Relative to
the European representation Of the Of.
fort. of the United States government
to purchase the Danish West Indies, it
is said here that there has been no
change in the status Of this matter for
some time past. The United States
government is quietly awaiting devel.
opments in Denmark, where the last
effective obstacle was interposed to the
( transfer in the shape Of popular out.

When the Danish government is in po.

subject afresh. The impression is con.
veyed here that the figure named as
the price to be paid, $1,000, 900, is IA,

any loss Of life withdrew the policemen
from the bank and stationed them at

men took their departure a crowd of
