The downfall of W. A. Lord of
Burlington is the subject for the
strongest temperance lecture YER
mont has had for a long time. A
bright young man honored by his
town and State in various capacities
and a leading lawyer is wrecked by
excessive use of liquor-a habit
formed in early youth and which he
had at various times endeavored to
overcome. The fight has been a
long one and his efforts time and
again to overcome the curse have
proved of no avail. Wrecked in
body and mind he is now in a private
asylum in Massachusetts. 1t is in
deed a sad case and when one reflects
upon how such a bright man as w
A. Lord was and what a brilliant
career and happy life has been SC
sadly darkened, he cannot but hope
that it will prove a lesson to The
many young men who think there i:
no harm in liquor.

Life Line Lengthens.

1t is said that the Actuary Society
of America is likely to undertake the
compilation o fnew mortality tables
to satisfy itself that conditions OF
healthy and comfortable living have
so improved in the last generation
that assurance companies a afford
to lower the rates at which they
insure the individual as it has just
been a~scertained that it does in Eng
land.
There, it has been ascertained, on
the basis of figures coming down as
late as 1898, that the average lite OF
the individual has heightened more
than a year and a half since the COM
pletion in 1869 of the tables by
which premium rates have hitherto
been fixed. When the first tables
show that the average life of a group
of individuals who had reached the
age of ten would be f%ftv-nine years
and nearly ten months, the second
table shows that the average life for
such a group now would be sixty
one years and five months. As the
American tables are as old as the
English ones, it is expected that a
like inclination toward longevity
may be discovered here.

NOTES

Forbush played good ball and did
good work on second.
Sneaking onto the grounds without
paging is small business.
Two-base hits were made by Foss,
McGinnis, Wilkins and Percell.
The ladies were out in great num-
bers and each one had her tavorite.
DR.. Leach did all he could to win
the game. He worked hard on first.
Umpire Barrows was all right as
usual. He umpires without fear or
favor.
The rooters were numerous and the
yelling at times drowned out even
the umpire's stentorian voice.
There are just a few in Morrisville
who think that Hardwick battery
should have been left at home,
Foss is not only pitcher but plays
ball all right, whether at the bat or
on bases. He gets there if possible.
Too many bouquets cannot be
thrown at Jackson, He is a good
catcher and plays ball for all it is
worth.
Morrisyille put up a good game.
They played much better ball than
in the former game and were nervy
to the end.
There was a good representation
from other towns than those particu.
larly interested. Johnson turned
out a large crowd as usual.
Foss for the Hyde Parkers struck
out seven men, while Lyons for the
MOrrisviIles struck out two. Base

Jimmie Collins" well what shall
we say of him? He played great bal
and managed the Hyde Park team
all right. lie has a mascot in that

OF the fifteen games played by
Hyde Park this year, they have lost
only three. In these games they
shut out three teams, Bakersfield

With the bases full, it was a record

A Solomon-like way of administer
ing justice and bestowing impartial
punishment on juvenile offenders was
shown in a Chicago court the other
day. Two boys were on trial for
fighting, accompanied by their re-
spective mothers. The Justice sim

then administer s~pankings. The pun
ishment the urchins received was
vigorous and of course had a telling

Our attention is called to the fact
that among a long list of bonds
offered by a Boston dealer in invest
ment securities, the st. Johnsbury
& Lake Champlain bonds are the
highest save one, on the entire list.
The price asked therefor is 1884.
Of course the "guiltedgeness" of the
bonds arises from the fact that they
are guaranteed by either the old
Boston & Lowell or Boston & Maine
road.

Last evening Rev. Albert Hatcher

interesting lecture in the Auditorium
on Some Folks and Other Folks. or
the Greatest Problem of the Century,
He spoke of the influence of orators.
poets. musicians. and philosophers on
the people in general. showing how
the orators have Influenced peoples
lives by means of their elouuence: how
the beautiful verses of poets have
moved people to higher and nobler
actions: how the harmony of must
clans and the knowledge of philoso-
piers hnv" affected mankind.
he stated that he decired To speak
to the people Of common sense ana
this in manner constitutes three
things: Ability to see and use, ana
worth as an individual.
He declared that the earth was al
ways round. but it was Columbus who
could forsee this great truth. Elec-
tricity has always been in existence.
hut 1t was men who could see the use
of this element that have influenced
the world. The same with steam,
liqlfied air, and other Of great mems
discoveries. The opportunity of a man
lies in himself and not in others. IT
is not the man who stands at the head
of his class who is necessarily the sue
cessful one. but the man who Will
bring out all that is in himself.
Mr.. Smith stated that the greatest
mistake of the past century was CIV
ing the liberated slaves the full rights
OF citizenship: men who had no indi-
vidual worth: who could not read nor
write: could not control their own
passions. in fact. did not know right
from wrong.

lis talking of his rights. for the rights
Of citizenship: the rights OF liberty:
the rights in trades: rights in court.
etc Remember. /: is true that the
trades ars looking for right men. right
citizens.
"The church. TOO. is looking for
right men. for right citizenship. The
greatest problem Of the century cam
rot be solved apart from individual;
worth. For instance. the greatest
problem Of man is in HIMSELF the
greatest problem Of the nation is in
ITSELF Alr. Smith brought out that
the man who will succeed in this CEN
tury will be 4 man measured by his
heart. who knows the relationship be-
tween his hody mind. and some will
not be satisfied with his good inten
tons. but will train his mind. brain
and body to learn the art of right liv-
ing. tho principle of which is the art
of living With his fellow man.
'rhe speakers illustrations brought
out his facts plainly and forcibly. at
the same time amusing his listeners
with their humor The lecture was

school classes of the church, the
audience went home satisfied that they
had spent an enjoyable evening.
