tion2 The material is 1T hand; why
not use it This biennial talk about
Young mems candidates has never
done very much for the state. The
Young mems candidates have all
been ol'tnc slate long enough to lose
their independence and there are
suspicious of the ability of any
young man who waits around to be
pushed to the front by his elders in
political management. And most of
them are pretty strongly welded to
tradition, old ideas, and to the per.
petuation of innumcrable things tie
people don't want, don't need, and
which ought to have been thrown
overheard longago. We should like
to see candidate not bound hand
hand and foot to a political faction,
not loaded down with political
debts, who would be free to dust
around and make things unpleasant
for those who oppose any change in
the line of progress.

VERM ONT APPLES.

Everything is without honor, they
say, in its own country. Vermont
is rather better than most states in
standing up for its own; but there
is one thing in which it has failed
to appreciate itself. That is in the
apples to which she has given orr
gin.
The experiment station sends us
a list of twenty-threc varieties of APP
pies known to pomological science
and originating in Vermont. They
are as follows, the place of origin
being given wherever possible:
Balm.
Bethel-Bethel.
Blakeley -Pawlet.
Observation-Disclosures.
Bunnough Greening-Nergennes.
Curtis Sweetest. Adams.
Epsy.
Fall Spitzenburg.
Fay et-Bennineton.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
ketchum's Favorite-Sudbury.
Meach-Brandon.
Northern Sweetest. George.
Platt's Bloomington.
Pownal Spitzcnburg.
Robinson Sweet.
Rum-Pawlct.
Sable Sweet.
Seedlcss.
Scott Winter-Newport.
Tinmouth-Tinmouth.
Woods Sudbury.
Wright-Hubbardton.
OF this list Tinmouth. Bethc! and
Northern Sweet are still quite com.
mon, and Burlington Cor Burlington
Pippin) is occasionally to be found.
Many of the varieties are almost ex-
tinct, or are grown only locally; but
it is of some interest to know that
Vermont and NermontcrS have borne
their part in the forward movement
of American horticulture and agri-
culture.

the attendance upon the public

half, and the number of schools
within the village limits in the same
proportion, while the state school
money will decrease corresponding
lv, all of which is a matter of deep
regret in Bellows Falls. At present
there are 10 paroehia schools in
Vermont, including those in Brattle=

The fusion forces in Greater New

rout is very complete. There are
not many who sympathizc with
Tammany beyond its direct hcncii-
Charles, and the result of the cam
paign, in which there has been eX-
traordinarv interest all over the
country, is generally hailed as vic
tory for decent government. 1t is 4
tremendous task before mayor-clect
Low and his friends. More than
one reform movement has come to
naught, and to mold the reins of
government the present work OF
cleansing thc city must be thorough
" and rightly done. And too much
reform, all at once, might upset
some righteous plans.

public lecturer i'll this city, Thursday
night last, shocked his hearers with per
version or misrepresentation of Bible
facts, whether designedly ignorantly,
we cannot de termine. This lecturer said
he had been in the Holy Land, aud his
talk was d. scriptiye of scenes and Incl
dents of that memorable country. The
lecturer was more impressed with Bible
truths since his visit to the land of Bible
history, but he showed wonderful lack
of knowledge OF plain facts in his narra-
ton. Illustrative of some of his mental
pictures he said ssJohn the Baptist wore
only breech clout about his loins.'' Our
Bible narrative tells us that stthe same
j ohm had his raiinent of camels' hair,
and Il leathern girdle about his loins; and
his meat was locusts and wild honey

The schoolhouse in which the in

Boot Hill, SO named, because many
when the cowboy was monarch of all
he surveyed in the Arkansas Valley
were buried on the mill with their
boots on. On the day of our visit to
the inititute, graders were reducing
the level of the schoolhouse grounds,
and in their excavations dug up a
grim and CHASTITY skeleton; also a
skull, the mustache still visible.
These sepulchra1 ssfinds" were taken
into the school-house. Is there any
other school in Kansas to which
specimens for the physiology classss
