One U,on10n'S
Point of DieW.
BY EMEE JAY.


This is the, first Christmas of the new
century. No wonder the theme becomes
one of inspiration. The poets have taken
It up, and are singing a strong high
note. ~ e..- .-..ss a--.
Henry Tyrrell is one of these singers.
and here is his fine song:
The stars that glitter in yon sky
OF midnight hush and wintry cold
Seems eager with the tidings told
To listening centuries gone by
To sing together, as they sang.
In sweet sidereal confidence,
Carols Of hops for ages hence.
That first Ger Bethlehem's hillside rang
o century that wakest now
To consciousness Of love divine,
What rich inheritance is thine!
What golden promise binds thy browl
Promise of universal peace. =" -
With wisdom and the Joy OF life
Unsullied and unvexed by strife;
And, from oppression. full surceaseI
Promise Of mans unselfishness,
OF nation-friendship, large and leal,
OF tributes to the common veal
And kindness that strangers bless;
OF piety without disdain, s. era
Duty that does not Danish 10y,
And gaiety without alloy
That gives no fellow creature pain;
OF grand achievement, glorious name,
Yet based al honor firm and true.
So naught Of evil may Undue
The escutcheon of our country's fame.

GREAT FUN MAKERS.
1.-The Star Boarder" Company
Prove Themselves to be
Great Entertainers.

The Star Boarder drew a very slim
house at tho Park last night. The very
few who were present though enjoyed an
evening Of fun. Owing to a delayed
train, the curtain was late in rising, but
the audience displayed very little impa.
tience.
"Ths Star Boardsr" was built for fun
making only. just why the piece was
called what it is called is not quite clear,
almost any other title would have served
the purpose as well.
1t 10 farce in the strictest sense of
the word and makes no pretentions to he
anything else. There is no shadow of =
plot but the entertainment is divided in
to three installments, and each contains
enough material TO stock an ordinary
farce. From rise to fall OF tho curtain
there is something "doing" all the time.
The center of tho stage 10 kept warm and
the audisnce is continually experiencing
an earthquake OF laughter.
While not the whole show, Charles h =.

sponsibility and manages to bs before

turs - was his taks.of on John Phillip
Sousa, the latter causing him to rscsivs
two curtain calls.
Dixon and Norton presented . strong
drawing card in their imitation Of actors
of the past decade. They were called
upon for more until they simply had to
decline from fatigue. A selection from
Herne's "Shors Acres" was followed by
limitations OF Scanlon Kelly, the Rolling
mill man." Emmett, each representation
being clever.
The Esmeralda sisters introduced .
dancing speciality, Of merit which was
enhanced by their good looks. Carrie
franklin. the possessor Of . pleasing
voice, sang a number Of popular songs.
Miss Sue Bell Mead was another NOM
Der of the company, having a. her share
Of the entertainment bunch of eongs
and some smart sayings.
But among all those who did sing vi
ola Bennett pleased the audience best Of
all. She sang tho favorits melody. II
Can't Tell Why Love you but Do.
Her voice is charming, has great volume
without jar or rattle, and she pleased BE-
yond measure.
There is vim and livliness to the
farce that makes it refreshing, tho ginger
being all sufficient.

WASHINGTON COUNTY COURT.

The trial OF the case OF Daniel T.. Nc
Govern sgai nst Hays and Smith, now in its
fourth week, was brought to close this
afternoon, and the case is now in the hands
of the jury
Frank Plumley made the closing argu-
ment for the defence this forenoon. He
was followed by j. W. Gordon who closed
for the plaintiff. Mr.. Gordon completed
his argument after the noon recess, and
the charge of the court Immediately fol-
lowed. Judge Munson, in his charge, very
clearly defined the law applicable to this
case. His instructions to the jury were
terse, clear and impartial and must be OF
great value, and help to them in reaching a
right conclusion. 1t is, of course, impossi-
BILE to predict when a verdict will be
reached.
The next case for trial. to Immediately
follow, is Lillian M, Sprague against the
town OF Calais. The plaintiff sues to recov-
or damages from the defendant town be-
cause OF injuries received by being thrown
from her carriage in 1899. 1t is claimed q
defective culvert was the cause OF Of the sc-
cident.
The trial of this case was begun at the
September term, 1900 before Judge Row.
ell. After the trial had progressed three
days Judge Rowell was taken i'll and was
unable to again sit during the term. Tsy-
lor & Dutton of Hardwick and Frank Plum
ley appeared for the plaintiff; j. H. Senter
and j. P. Lamson for the defendant town.

McKINLEY's ESTATE.

NEW YORK, Sept 23.-In view of
the exaggerated reports of the amount
of the insurance policies on President
McKinley's life an authoritative state
ment was MADE today by one of the
late Presidents closest friends in New
York city. He said:
ut isn't necessary to mention my
name, but all of President McKinley's
friends in Washington will understand
who is speaking. The exact amount
of President McKinley's policies is
$4,000, and not penny more. or
this amount, $50, 900 was carried by the
New York Life Insurance Company.
The remaining $4,000 was carried by
smaller companies. This statement is
absolutely correct in every particular.
President Mccall of the New York
Life Insurance Company, for many
years was warm personal friend of
President Mckinley. Mr.. Mccall was
not always in political affiliation with
Mr.. Mckinley. He was friend of
President Cleveland and Gov. Hill. In
1896, however, Mr.. Mccall came out
Mckinley man in every fibre ever
since. With Mrs. Mccall, Mr.. Mccall
has been the guest of President and
Mrs. Mckinley at the White House on
many occasions. 1t was ascertained
today that it was Mr.. Mccall and SEN
ator Hanna who induced President Nc
Kinley to increase his life insurance in
the last few years. The President had
many expenses during his life and he
had not been able to save much. Up
to 1897 his life insurance policies ag.
gregated about $4,000
Mrs. McKinley's income from the
insurance policies, the pension of
$1,000 a year which Congress will
grant, and the money saved by the
President will be about $4,000 a
year.

No POISON

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. 23.-The
most important development in The
Czolgosz case is the announcement
that no poison had been found on the
bullets or the revolver with which the
anarchist assassinated President Nc
Kinley. Chemical and meteorological
examinations were made and both re-
vealed the fact that no poison was used
by the murderer.
Another examination to determine
the exact mental condition of the pris
oner was made IN the Erie county jail
Sunday afternoon by DR.. Carlos F..
Mcdonald of New York, the alienist,
who was brought here for the defense
by the Erie County Bar Association
and DR.. Arthur W. Hurd, supsrintend-
ent of the Buffalo State hospital. The
alienists were with the assassin for one
hour and half and when they left
both declined to discuss the case.

IN SOUTH AFRICA.

LONDON, Sept. 23.-A very peculiar
state of affairs exists in regard to the
war. While Mr.. Kruger and Mr..
Leyds are drawing up petitions to
President Roosevelt and the Gear, ask
ing them to intervene, the fighting
Beers are helping themselves in South
Africa by celebrating the expiration of
the period in which Lord Kitchener
proclaimed they must surrender, by
four notable successes, killing sixty
eight officers and men, wounding sixty
three and capturing five guns and 300
men.
The situation is singulsrly like the
opening of the war, two years ago, the
names OF the anne places recurring in
the dispatches. Utrecht, where Major
Cough was entrspped, was the scene
of similar ambush eighteen months
ago. Acton Homes, where the Beers
reappeared yesterday, is eighteen
miles southwest of Ladysmith promi-
nent in the early hostilities, and the
Natal colonials are mastering for the
defence of the Tugela as when Gen.
Joubert invaded Natal in 1899.
In Cape Colony fighting is again 60
ing on south of Stormberg, in territory
traversed by raiders and their pursuers
half dozen times. The governments
publication OF these reverses causes an
outburst of evaporation against the
conduct of the war, not in South Afri-
ca, but by the ministry. The great
ministerial journals accuse the govern
ment of trying to run the war "on the
cheap" by not providing Lord Kitcb-
ener with sufficient resources.
The Times, while it has no misgiv-
ings as to the final issue, accuses the
home authorities of lack of organized
sustained effort, of disposition to post
pone military for financial conditions,
and of failure TO grasp the moral and
intellectual damage which the prolong-
alton of the struggle inaicts on the en-
pire.

Gen. Frederick Funston, who has
been in the hospital suffering from ap-
pendicitis for about a week, has under
gone a successful operation.
Gen. Chstfee has refused the request
for the release of the prisoners on the
Island Of Guam. He considers that
their release would not be sale until
the surrender or capture OF Mslvar and
Lukban and he also believes that the
friends of the prisoners desiring their
release will use their influence to bring
about the surrender of the iusurgent
leaders named.

McKINLEY'S TOMB

CANTON, Ohio, Sept 23.-The tomb
of the late President was visited by
over 20 900 people on Sunday. Those
thousands of visitors at the cemetery
were not from Canton alone but hun
dreds came from neighboring towns.
The court house was kept open all day
for the accommodation of hundreds Of
people who had not yet seen the cata
talque,
DIR. Rixey said last evening that
there had been no material change in
the condition of Mrs. Mckinley and
that she is doing as we'll as could be ex-
pected. He said: "She went out for
two hours driving on Sunday aud still
seems to be holding her own" The
drives were taken in the family car
riage, an open surrey which the Presi-
dent had sent up from Washington dur
ing the summer vacation. DR.. Rixey
and Mrs. Q. Barber accompanied Mrs.
Mckinley. The first trip was to the
cemetery aud it was at the request of
Mrs. Mckinley. A much longer drive
was taken during the afternoon at the
suggestion of the doctor who feels that
his patient is benefited by all the out
door life she can stand and can be in
duced to take. These outings have all
ways had tendency to produce sleep
and to increase her appetite and now
they have that effect, to degree at
least.
There was placed on the Mckinley
casket on Sunday by Judge William r..
Day a large floral wreath from the EN-
peror Of Russia.

officer on Saturday afternoon on the charge
of obtaining goods under false pretenses Of
two merchants in that city. She was taken

in city court and fined $50 and COSTS which
she hopes to be able to pay.
1t appears that about two weeks ago she
went into the stores OF the two Barre mer-
chants, whose names are withheld, and OBJ
tanned from each silk waist, representing
that she desired to bring them TO this city
for sick sister to examine. Her story and
manner were 80 plausible that she was al
lowed to take the goods but she did not re-
turn them, 1t is said she had just visited
another Barre store with the same purpose,
but the proprietor had been given tip, and
instead of getting the goods an officer fol-
lowed her to this city and arrested her.
