A silver Wedding Anniversary.

Mr.. and Mrs. F. p. Dwight Matthews
observed their silver wedding ami
versary on Friday last, the 18th. Their
pretty home southwest of the village
was made even more inviting by its in
terror decorations of green, and pink
and white flowers. Oyer the door of the
reception room was the inscription In
silver letters, "Silver Wedding-1S76-
1901" Mr.. and Mrs. Matthews were
assisted in receiving their guests by
their son Edward, Mrs. Hamlin (mother
of Mrs. Matthew'S and Mr.. and Mrs. Ira
ID. Hamlin. About l2j of the friends of
Mr.. and Mrs. Matthews availed them
selves of the opportunity to congratulate
the couple. Many valuable presents
were received, but the most unique of
the number was little evergreen tree
all a-glitter with dimes, quarters, halves
and dollars hung to the branches,
amounting in all to $50. Rev. Mr.. Bar
mum of Cornwall made the presentation
speech for the friends who had con-
tributed the coins. The evening passed
away all to quickly in pleasant converse
and exchange Of experiences. Refresh
ments of the daintiest were served.
When the hour for departure came, Mr..
and Mrs. Matthews were again over
whelmed with good wishes for future
anniversaries, and for as happy oc-
casiOns as that of their silver wedding.

Another washOut occurred early
Saturday morning on the Rutland
road near Ferrisburg, where similar
slide took place on Aug. IS. Since the
first slide this strip of track has been
watched and trains have been running
slow over the place. Sometime during
Friday night, after the night sleeper
had gone south, heavily loaded freight
train went over the bad place and no
doubt weakened the foundation, which
had probably been softened by the
recent rains. The watchman stationed
there discovered the slide and stopped
the north bound morning sleeper. The
passengers were delayed until
O'Clock in the morning, when special
train from Burlington took them to
that city. After the first slide the place
was filled with wooden piles and stones,
but all this fell distance of thirty feet.
Saturdays trains from the north were all
about two hours late, owing to the fact
that the passengers and baggage had
to be transferred from one train to
another. A temporary track has beer
built around the place until plan car
be devised to remedy the trouble.

LETTER TO LEONARD o. ALLEN.

Dear Sir: There was time when it
paid painter to paint lead and oil, and
fight shy of anything else. That was
when the market was full of poor paints,
and zinc was unknown.
Now zinc has come in, lead and oil
must give way-it is too short lived
There are two ways to use zinc; you
can mix it in with lead In a tub, or buy
Devoe lead and zinc, which is ground to-
gether by machinery.
If you mix your own lead and zinc,
you gain something; If you buy Devoe
you gain more, because machinery does
better work than hand mixing. Expert
ence is worth something. We've had l46
years of it. Yours truly,
43 f. w. DEvOE & Co.

An Interesting Case.

The Knibbs patent case, over a
valve to regulate the pressure Of water
in the hose connected with steam fire
engines, which had much of its fight
ing done at Brattleboro before Judge
Wheeler, and in which judgment was
rendered five years ago, comes to the
public attention again by the claim of
the widow of Lawyer ii. II. Hadlock
against the city OF New York for
millions of dollars out of it. Mrs.
Hadlock is remembered by many
people, as she with the wives and
families OF other lawyers and parties
made summer stay OF about
month at the Brooks House while one
of the hearings in the case was being
held. Since the death three years ago
OF her husband, who was famous for
his size, his resemblance to Daniel
Webster, and for his well-known legal
ability, but who with the IMPROVE
dence frequent with men of his genius
left no estate except what was in this
case, Mrs. Hadlock has been in rather
destitute circumstances, being COM
DCiiNl W hNCP a OOdiAitiG llOuct W
support herself and children. She
claims that he was entitled to
500, 900 for counsel fees in the case,
and also had large claim for money
advanced, and she instituted suit
against New York city, against which
damages of Sl,000,000 were assessed
for use Of the patent device, but which
has thus far managed in some way to
avoid payment, as have the other
cities that used it. The death of
different parties interested in the
claim is doubtless one reason for the
delay. James knibbs, the inventor,
and humble mechanic, died years ago,
having assigned the claim for a small
sum. Marcus p. Morton, who in the
early hearings, prosecuted it for
several years, assigned it to Paul
Philbrook, who interested Hadlock.
They are all three dead. IL is said
that in all quarter of a million has
been spent in the prosecution of the
claim and of that amount Mrs. Had
locks father, Capt. Daniel S. Goodale
of Searsport, Me-, spent at least
100000. He is now SO years of age,
and by reason of his expenditure is
the heaviest claimant. The suit
brought by Mrs. Hadlock was for
Sl3,000,000, so that the sum of
81, 900, 600 seems small in comparison
with what might have been won.
But she may compromise for Sl00,000

called in contractor.
Il am going to move my house to Sha-

how long will it take?' The contra tor
was stunned. Stevenson's house was a
massive stone affair. costing about $780,
600. and Sharon is about twenty miles
away. Finally he estimated that the lob
could be done for $4,000. Then move
it, said Mr.. Stevenson.
The house was moved. The polished
hardwood furnishings were removed, the
great stone blocks were lifted from their
places, numbered. and loaded on freight
cars mile downtown, and within a few
weeks the dissected mansion was lying

German sources: The mailboat of the
United Steamboat company Of Copenha-
