Another Extra.

AS soon as the news reached this office
that President Mckinley was sinking ar
engagements were made to issue an extra
on Saturday morning and before 6
O'Clock on the morning of Sept Ia we
had an extra on the street containing the
particulars of the Presidents death, a
biographical sketch of numerous illus
trations. To say that this paper was
we'll received is expressing it mildly. Be-
sides supplying all our Vermont sub
scribers with the extra on the morning
mails nearly 1000 papers were sold in
this town and vicinity by enterprising
newsboys. Charles A. Chapman easily
led the newsboys, selling 26O papers Sat.
urday forenoon between St. Iohnsburv
and West Concord, and at Lyndonville,
MIR. Chapman stopped at every farm
house en- route as many OF his Gus
toners had not heard that the Presi
dent was worse they were totally unpre
pared for the sad news. Some of the mer
broke down completely as they first
heard the news. One man bought ar
extra to file with papers containing the
news of the death of Lincoln and also 0
Garfield.
The issuing of the extra involved lot,
ofnight work, some of our force staying
up the entire night to get the news anc
prepare it for publication. For the pub
LEGATION Of the details of the dying hours
OF the President we are indebted to tele
phone messages from the Burlington Free
Press, an act of newspaper courtesy
which we are very glad to publicly
acknowledge.

small Death rate. The first is the
highest in all Vermont and it is to be
doubted if it is equalled in New En-

when it is considered that we have so
much sickness in the city In the

The little town t South Hampton,
N. H., stands unique in the growing
section of that state. 1t has no tele-
phone Of telegraph station, nor any
means of communication with the
outside world, except the old fashion
ed stage that makes daily trips to
Amesbury, Mass, the nearest place.
No doctJr or lawyer has ever settled
in that town and it never hao an un-
dertaker. There is no sheriff there or
even lookup. The place is gradual
ly going out Of existence as the death
rate is yearly much larger than the
birth rate. Last year not a child
was born in that place. The town for
merly had representative in the
Legislature, but is now grouped in
with East Kingston and can only
send one every other two years. The
citlzsns of this town are now rejoic-
ing over the fact that the rails of the
Haverhill extension Of the Exeter,
Hampton & Amesbury street railway
are to pass through one section of the
town.

Taking Sunday Collections.

An old and not yet obsolete mode OF
taking collection in Scotch church
is by means of ladle-a small wooden
box at the end of straight wooden
shaft about four and half feet long,
the top Of the box being sufficiently
open to receive contributions Of money.
For all special collections this was the
usual mode in the chief churches OF
Edinburgh when was boy at school
there so years ago, but 1t has gradually
gone out OF fashion and is not often to
be seen nowadays.
For ordinary Sunday collections the
general custom has been to have a
metal plate or basin on small table
at the church entrance superntended
by an elder-a mode which was often
called the brod. When ladies are used,
they are handed round the congregation
by elders after the sermon or after the
last psalm, and the common Scotch
phrase to lift" the collection may have
come from this custom.-NOtes and
Queries.

Some Queer verdists.

What is "a reasonable state of intoxi-
cation" apparently just missed precise
definition by coroner's jury in Missls-
sippi which stated In its verdict that
1--WE, the jury, find that deceased came
to his death by stroke of an east
bound train. No. 2O4, on l. c. Railroad.
at Fentrcss, Miss, in Choctaw county,
he being in a reasonable state of intox-
ication."
4 somewhat similar Indebtedness Of
legal conclusion mars verdict of a
neighboring Georgia jury to the effect
that I'VE. the jury, find the defendant
almost guilty"
Equally as uncertain and ambiguous
as these statements by laymen is the
opinion in an early Maryland case
which acknowledges the corn" by say
Ing that an occurrence referred to took
place lat former sitting when the
tourt was full"
