Geological Curiosity.

DR.. William A. Chase of Morrisville
brought from CRANKY and placed in
the st. Johnsbury museum recently
a piece OF granite boulder which has
attracted good deal of attention
and been the source of considerable
conjecture among local biologists.
The stone has in it what appears to
be two human footprints, and anoth-
er indentation almost the exact shape
of a horses hoof. The footprints are
about seven inches long, both the
same size and both represent the left
loot. The points point in different
directions, the position of one being
the exact reverse OF the other. 1t is
stated that the rock from which this
piece was quarrled has been curios-
ity in CRANKY for century. 1t is a
granite boulder weighing several tons,
situated one and one-half miles from
Gallups Mills, on farm owned by
Misses Lila M. and Matte Buzzell.
The boulder is on the eastern slope of
the highest hill in the vicinity. This
land was cleared and the stone dis
covered in 1900 by Joseph Gleason,
and care has always been taken that
the curiosity should not be defaced-
The farm was bought a few years lat
err by Mr.. Buzzell, grandfather OF the
present owners, and it has been in the
family ever since. The top of the
houlder ia oval in shane and ia about
eight inches above the ground. The
piece which was taken to the museum
is about II inches square. 1t was
quarried by DR.. Chase and Joshua
Stevens of Victory and loaned to tn,
museum by the Misses Buzzell. Just
what the value of the specimen may
be, from a geological standpoint
would be hard to say, but as a curl
osity it is decidedly interesting. i
will doubtless remain at the museum
for some time.

A Lesson.

Gertie had a headache, and in con-
sequence was inclined to be fretful.
Her canary was singing at the top OF
his voice in the bay window, and Ger
tie exclaimed in petulant voice:
"How noisy Joyful is this morning,
Mamma wish you'd cover his cage
with a cloth to keep him from sing
ing"
Mrs. Gray, without a word, covered
the cage as Gertie wished, and for a
while there was silence. But present

in the bottom of his cage. which the
cloth had failed to reach, and, flying
toward it, he again raised his voice
in a song of triumph. Inspite of her.

MORRISVlLLE.

About time to start up the whisr
clubs.
Walter Pike was in town from
Stowe last Friday.
Paul Brothers are having very
good sn, cess with their dancing
schools this fall.
As tomorrow is Thanksgiving it
may be presumed business places will
be closed during the afternoon.
One of the most active property
holders in this village to keep his va
rious premises in thorough repair is
E. G. Foss. His latest move is the
repairing of his livery stable, connect
ed with the Hotel Lame lille, and a
good work is being done.
The legion or more of the friends OF
VIM. G. McClintock, who recently re-
turned here from Brandon, where he
had for some years been Superintend-
ent of the Forest Hill Stock Farm,
will be pleased to learn that he is re-
gaining bis health and able to take
short drives, and that heis "at home"
in his residence on Congress street, a
place he purchased some months
since.
Someone, at sometime, remarked,
practically, that after the storm
comes the calm. Last Wednesday
morning it was sultry, but ere the
shades of evening fell the wind was
bowling along at 90-mile gate.
hustling everything movable feminist
it, and this was the program until
the following day. Though no seri-
GUS damage was done, a good many
own up to a sleepless night.
The poultry train that pulled out
of here last Friday morning, before
daylight had hardly appeared, car.
ried away from this station five and
a half tons of Thanksgiving goods
for the Boston market, while the ex.
press consignment, on the 10 O'Clock
train, carried enough to make an
even seven tons. The goods shipped
this year are equal, if not superior to
that of former years, and will glad
den many a household tomorrow.
E. j. Parker has got an inkling
that he would like to be near his chill
dren in the Bay State, and is running
a business notice to sell his farm. The
first time it appeared it lacked one
word, good. 1t was to qualify the
state OF his tillable land. He was re-
ferred to the "peace" editor, who evil
IDENTIFY evolved a plan that made
more than two men happy. Ed. is
one of our most thorough-going
farmers, has a good farm, near at
hand; hope he will find a purchaser,
not because we wish to be rid of him.
The fire alarm, or what it was sup
posed to be, rang out Thursday eve
ming and nearly everybody in the vii
lage responded. 1t was only for a
practice meeting OF the new fire COM
pany and every member was present.
1t is said that physical exertion is
good for business men. 1t may be
that it requires a fire alarm call to
get them away from business cares,
for we have a hustling set, ever bat
thing for the commercial supremacy
of Morrisville, yet they turn out to
fight fire (?) just as readily as the fire
ladies, for a practice meeting.

Thomas A. Edison has just perfect
ed an invention which is destined to
multiply many times the physical
forces of the industrial world. 1t isa
device for the utilization of all the en-
ergy stored in coal. When it is said
that practically all physical energy
is derived from coal, and that as now
consumed coal yields no more than
10 per cent. of it's energy, often much
less, the remaining 80 per cent. and
more being lost, it will be understood
how valuable such an invention is
and what it's possibilities are for in
dustrial development. Mr.. Edison
accomplishes this liberation OF coal
energy by means of compressed air.

ular that merely underselling him
won't do the trick; but"
IF he's popular, you'll have to make

mans reputation can be undermined.
If he has never done anything, put up
a job on him. Only remember that if
you're caught in it, you can't look for
any support from us. We have no use
for men who get caught"
81 understand that replied George
with a shudder for his own situation.
IF you could buy up one of two
trusted men in his employ, said Harri-
man, you might throw him down that
way. Find out whom he owes money
to, and buy up the claims; but don't
make a myrtyr of him in the eyes of
the community. Fix it SO that he'll
seem to ruin himself, if you can. You
know what We want; now let's see re-
suits. Here is an order on the cashier
for a few hundred dollars. | suppose

OF thing, as well as your travelling ex-
penses. Good luck to you. | rarely
make a mistake in a a and | be-
lieve you'll have that fellow Well
brook in the ~poorhouse in six months.
He laughed pleasantly, and George
tried to join him, but the thought Of
Williams restrained his mirth. It was
dreadful to think that at the moment
when he was about to be trusted with
so important a mission, the stigma of
dishonesty should be placed upon him.
He could fancy the look of disgust in
Harriman's eyes when he should learn
that the man in whom he had reposed
such fiattering confidence was in reali-
ty a thief. Surely to no such man
could be confded the weighty and con-
fidential work at JohnStOWn; rather
the prisoners dock and the Jail for
him.
Mr.. Williams wishes to see you,
sir" said Old Ben, appearing suddenly
in the middle of the room.
Hartman nodded to George. who
was moving toward the door. and then
said to the messenger: "All right; I'll
see him"
George was rooted to the spot. He
knew we'll enough what Williams
wanted. They had overtaken him.
Williams entered hurriedly and
started with surprise at sight of
Georeg. The latter nodded coldly.
BY the way, Williams" he said.
there's twenty-five dollars in an en-
velope in my desk that I forgot to turn
over to you. III lay it on your table"
He passed out. leaving Williams
standing with his mouth open and his
eyes like two glass marbles.
To draw his money from the cashier
to arrange tho amount for Williams,
and to escape from the office, required
less time for George than Williams
needed to square himself with Harri-
man for disturbing him about a matter
that had proven to be not what it
seemed.
George hurried home his heart light,
his mind full of plans for the ruin of
Wellbrook.
How pleased father will be-" he
said, again and again. Thank heav-
en- that I go home to him this day an
honest man."
