Manchester wins a Case.

London, April 19.-The suit of San.
guinetti against the duke of Man
chester, which was postponed Febru-
airy 81 last, owing to the dukes alb
sence in America, occupied the court
of kings bench Thursday. The plain
tiff seeks to recover G 500 commission
for procuring the duke loan of
10000. The defense pleaded that
the terms of the loan were unreason-
able. Mr.. Zimmerman, the father-in-
law of the duke, was in court. Judg-
ment was given in favor of the de-
PENDANT on the ground that San
guinetti had never found anyone able
or willing to provide the loan, on
which he claimed commission, on the
actual security available.

white bronze monument made by
the Monumental Bronze Co., of

resist the effect of the weather for

Oil fOsS GhG
Children

Give them oil-Cod-liver oil.
It's curious to see the result.
Give it to the peevish, fret
full child, and he laughs. Give
it to the pale, anamic child
and his face becomes rosy and
full of health. Take a flat
chested child, or a child that
has stopped growing, give him
the oil, and he will grow big
and strong like the rest.
This is not a new scheme
1t has been done for years.
Of'course you must use the
right oil. SCOTS Emulsion
is the one.
SCOTS Emulsion neither
looks nor tastes like oil because
we are so careful in making il
pleasant to take.

M. A. Jenkins went to Laconi5
last week to award the premiums on
the large display of poultry exhibit
ed at the Fair.
Ex-Gov. Farnham, who attended
the Officers Reunion and Fish and
Game Banquet last week, said thai
pleasant feature of the occasion tC
him was meeting a number of ex-
governors, seven besides himself
present, as fo11ows John w. Stew
art, Middlebury; Redfeld Proctor,
Proctor; John l.. Barstow, Shell
burne; Samuel E. Pingree, Hart
ford; e. J. Ormsbee, Brandon; c.
S. Page, Hyde Park; Josiah Grout,

governors, the four not being in
Burlington last week are Frederick
Ho1book, Batt1eboro; Geo. w. Hen
dee, Morrisvi11e; w. P. Dillingham;,
Waterbury; E. c. Smith, st. AL
bans. Mr.. Farnham was governor
at the time President Garfield was
shot and the attempted assassina-
ton of President Mckinley reminds
him that the former would have Wis
tied Vermont had it not been for the
deed of the wretch, Guiteau. Tues
day, July 5, 1881, a session of the
American Educational society was
to open in st. Albans. Garfield was
TO he present and the address of well
come to him and other visitors was
to be delivered by Gov. Farnham.
The Saturday morning before at
about 10 O'Clock, President Garfield
entered the depot at Washington in
company with James G.. Blaine. He
was going to spend Sunday at some
place and Monday go to Vermont,
Gov. Farnham and party meeting
him at certain point with special
train. But hardly had the President
entered the depot at Washington
when a pistol shot was heard and
Blaine, looking around, was horr1-
| fed to see Garfield falling, mortally
wounded. The murderer ran into
the street but was seen and quickly
arrested. The news flashed over the
country and a great nation was in
sorrow, as it now is for our beloved
President, suffering in Buffalo from
the terrible deed of a crank, fanatic,
anarchist or whatever he may be.

THE PRESIDENT SHOT.
The DasTGRDLY LOTUUSUCCEssFUL.
GRgPBICSTOBY OF TIE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.

William Mckinley, the President
of the United States, was shot twice
by an anarchist while receiving the
people at a public reception in the
Temple of Music at the -Ameri
can Exposition at +.07 o'clock Fri
day afternoon. He sank back into
the arms of Pesident Mi1burn of the
exposition and Detective Geary of
his escort, while the attempted as
sassin was seized by guards and
hurled helpless to the floor. Only
one took effect. One, supposed to
be the second shot, struck the ster-
mum in the Presidents chest, caus-
ing a confusion, but nothing more
and the bullet was found in his cloth
ing. The other, supposed to be the
first bullet, entered the President s
abdomen about five inches below the
left nipple and to the left of the
median line. An operation, which
was performed within two hours af-
ter the shooting failed to find this
bullet. Drainage tubes we're in
serted and the incision was sewed
up. The President was removed to
the home of John G.. Mi1burn, where,
at midnight, he was resting COM
fortably.
The man who did the shooting
o,,ya 1,;e ;, -, mo ~. Mod N;a,,,,,, L.
said he was % years old, black
smith by occupation, had been born
in Detroit, and had come to Buffalo
last Saturday. When asked why he
shot the President, he said: 81
only done my duty" He was asked
if he was an anarchist, and said,
yes, he was.
Shortly before midnight the would
be assassin Weakened yqlder the-con-
slant fire Of questiG+se%, nd confessed
thai his name is not Nieman, but
Leon Czolgosz, and that his home is
in Cleveland. He said he was born
in Detroit. He is well known in
most of the large American cities
as a socialist. He is also known as
Fred Nieman and is a Pole.
The attempted assassination was
premeditated and planned with care.
STORY OF THE DAY.
Up to the time of the terrible ca
1amity the day had been most pleas
ant1y passed by the President and
his party. Everywhere crowds had
greeted him, endeavoring to show
their respect and love. AT night
he returned on stretcher, almost
wounded to death, to the home he
had left in the morning to spend

The party reached the top of the
gorge at Ills O'Clock. Workmen
from nearby industries turned out
with flags and cheers. Carriages
were waiting and the party alighted
from the cars and entered them.
A Tradition Preserved.
1t is TRADITIONAL that no President
ever left this country during his
term of office. So it was decided
that the President would not cross
to the Canadian side. Yet it was
desired that he and Mrs. Mckinley
should have a fine view of the falls,
so they drove out onto the bridge
almost to the centre and turned back
while safely on the American side.
Mrs. Mckinley showed signs of
fatigue due to the heat and the
Presidents carriage drove first to
the garden entrance of the Interna-
tional Hotel, where Mrs. Mckinley
alighted and went indoors, while the

H. B. Martin has an acre and
half of corn that he claims will beat
anything of the kind ever raised in
Bradford. The stalks will average
nine feet high, many of them going
over ten and he expects the field will
yield 200 bushels ears of corn to the
acre. 1t is common yellow field
corn. 1t is evidently good year for
corn in the state, as reports come
from various sections of exception
al yields, stalks being unusually
high, etc. We doubt, however, if
there are any that will go ahead of
the above. The field is just an acre
and a half, carefully measured.
The shooting of the President
Friday should rouse the people to
action in regard to the uprooting of
anarchist societies which are flurish-
ing in our country. Our people have
little realized the change which has
come over their racial composition
in the last few years and conse-
quently have dismissed this incen-
diary talk as that of a crazy group
of foreigners which never could find
active sympathy here. But now a
President of these United States
lies in his blood. and the instru-
ment belongs to this same group.
The crime is un-American in author
ship but the fate of Garfield and
Lincoln should warn us that even
our people may have passions in
common with those of the Old World
that engender acts of
Notwithstanding violence. Our politi-
cal passions are fierce, though we
crafty them only in words, never
dreaming that from a few minds
terrible deeds may come. This blow
at our President should be a death
blow to anarchy in our country. We
have little realized the nature of the
we have been harboring.
