Mcclure Goes to Prison.

Judge Wheeler in the United States
district court February 10 pronounced
sentence upon Marvin A. Mcclure, for
merly prominent business man of Rut-
land, who. was convicted of assisting to
wreck the Merchants national bank of
that city.
Seven years in the Rutland county
house of correction is MeClure's SEN
tence.
Mcclure received the decision without
an expression of surprise. 1t lay within
the power of the court to send him to
the state prison.
The Merchants national bank was
forced to close its doors, a total wreck
ON March rs, 1900. The national bank
examiner, d. d. Muir, found shortage
of S145, 600, a receiver was appointed and
the cashier, Charles w. Mussev. was
arrested, charged with misrepresentation
S145, 900. ?
The shortage was found afterward to
exceed 100000.
Mcclure, a music teacher, dealer and
| SPECTATOR, was arrested few DAYS later.
| charged with aiding and abetting the
| cashier, who, it appears, had loaned Nc
Clure nearly S145, 200 on notes of doubt
| full value, and in violation of the national
banking laws.
Mussey pleaded guilty at the hearing
and is now in the house of correction
serving seven-year sentence.

New Hampshire's Building at Buffalo.

The signing of the Pan-American ap-
preparation bill by Governor Jordan en-
sures the adequate representation of
New Hampshire at Buffalo next summer.
The exposition will be the greatest spec
tacle this country has witnessed since
the Columbian fair of 1898. 1t will not
equal the latter in magnitude but is ex-
peced to SurpasS it in many of its de-
tails.
Syhe ground chosen for the exhibition
lenSs itself much more readily to inn
proyement than did the Chicago loca-
ton, and the landscape features will be
beautiful in the extreme. The buildings
will be of an architectural character be-
fitting their site and are now near enough
completion to indicate an ensemble which
will be delight to the artistic sense.
That New England may be fttingly
represented it has been decided, as we
have before announced, that the six
states unite in the erection of a hand
some building to cost $4,000, each con
tributing an equal share. Plans have
been made by Miss Josephine Wright
Chapman of Boston. That they were Of
such excellence as to meet with the I'M
heSitating acceptance of the commission
ers, even against competition, speaks
for their worth. .- .t-
The building will be large two-story
structure in the colonial style. The en-
trance in the middle of the front will be
gained by large porch with roof sup
ported by four columns running. the
height of the building. A gallery will
extend from this porch around both
ends, where it will again be covered. All
the exterior ornamentation will be
strictly in keeping with the colonial idea.
The interior will contain reception and
lounging rooms and all convenienoes for
visiting New Englanders, who are ex=
pected to make this their headquarters.
There will be also large room for:each

PecuIiarities of Y Rays.

There are many curious things about
X rays which seem to puzzle even the
scientists. Signor Briguiti, who has
been making experiments with them at
Rome, says that the visibility of sub
stance to the eye is no criterion of it's
visibility to the Y rays. The rays can
not see through glass. which is trans
parent to the eye, whereas aluminium,
which is Opaque to the eye, is transpar-
ent to the Y rays. The rays can see a
splinter of glass in the hand. but not a
splinter of wood. Most inks are trans
parent to the rays, including printers
fink, but some of them are Opaque. The
rays can see through postoffice direct
org, but If paper with words written
on 1t be put In the middle Of the direct
DRY the rays will reveal these words
and nothing behind them.

Scotch phrase, continuously and con-
tinually ..heckled' by the manager at
rehearsals and between the acts for al
legged displays of stupidity ON the stage,
was informed that q near relative of
his had departed this life and had left
him competence, so he decided to
leave the dramatic profession and, to
quote him, become respectable. Before
leaving he determined to take his re
venge on Mansfield for the attacks on
his amour propre that gentleman had
made. So

GENEROUS eIF1.

Andrew Carnegie has offered Port
Jervis 5000 for new Library
building, provided the town will
furnish a site and pledge $4,000 u
year for its maintenance. This
places our neighbor in a very envi
able position and already steps have
been taken to secure the munificent
donation. Under the act of 1895
school directors are authorized to es-
tablish free public libraries in school
districts, to set aside buildings for
that purpose and to levy a tax to
to maintain it, and to receive gifts
endowments etc., free from tax for
these purposes. Why should not
some effort be made to see if the
generous philanthropist will make
an offer to Milford. There is now
a good nucleus in the way of books
and if a suitable room could be pro
vlded the library could easily be
maintained at a very small cost to
taxpayers. We suggest that our
school directors call meeting of
citizens to confer with them and
that steps be taken to see what can
be done in this direction, The eff
fort will cost nothing and good re-
suits may easily be attained. 1t is
intimated that the present library
may be closed after April first when
the lease on the building expires, be-
cause there is not sufficient support
to pay rent and for care. If how
ever the building could be secured
means no doubt, could be provided
for current expenses. Let us make
the effort and see what can be done.

evening.
On Tuesday evening the members
of the Epworth League gave an en-

The invitation was general and the
attendance good. 1t does us good
once in a while to come to the gath
erings at the church and nor feel
bound to bring our pocketbooks
along. If sociability could be di-
vorced from the money idea. there
would be more of it. Let no one
interpret til is, however, in favor of
stinginess.
We enjoyed our supper given by
the "Hatchet Society, very much

money and sociabillty went togeth-
