ample opportunity during the next two
months to get well informed concern
ing Oriental customs. as he had thrust
upon him Saturday night % boarders
direct from China. The Celestials
were arrested recently at Newport for
attempting to eNade the Chinese ex-
clusion law, and were given a hearing
last week before Commissioner John
Young. United States District Attor-
ney J. l.. Martin of Brattleboro ap-
pearing for the government. There
were 30 in the lot, and of these 26
were ordered deported and three were
discharged. Those ordered deported
appealed, but only three were able to
secure bail. There were no accom-
modations for the other % in Newport
so a telegram was sent to Tailor
Spencer asking if he could take care
of them. Mr.. Spencer replied that he
could. and they were sent to Brattle-
boro Saturday and taken to Newfane
that night. Their appearance in New.
fame was a novel sight. So many were
never seen together in that town be-
fore. They probably will be given
hearings in October. About 80 other
Chinese cases will be disposed of be
fore their turn comes.

The Estey Organ company's New
Departure.

There has been a gathering of the
Estey Organ Company's agents and
representatives from all parts of the
country at the company's office and
factories here for the past two days.
The purpose Of the meeting was a
mutual discussion of the business sit
uation, the outlook, methods, etc. The
special occasion calling these men to-
gether at this time was the compile
tion and trial of the first pipe organ
made by the company under its new
departure in this direction. The in
strument was tested by Prof. Cramer,
and by several of the Estey men from
abroad who are accomplished organ
lists, and all expressed their great sat
isfaction and delight in the instru-
ment in every respect. This organ
will probably be sent to one of the
Estey city houses, and others will be
ready to follow in due course of bust
ness.
The gentlemen present were E. NJ.
Read of the st. Louis house; G. w.
Nichols of Sanders & Stayman, Bal
timore; ID. e. Woolley of PHILADELPHIA;
c. r. Putnam of Boston; G. e. Kemp
of Atlanta; B. L. Curtis Of Lincoln,
Neb., who travels through the central
West; John F. Curtis, general agent
in the Northwest; and H. e. Chute,
who covers the states east of Indiana.
The successful introduction Of the
Estey pipe organs to the music trade
OF the country marks a distinct step
in advance in the history of the Estey
company, and there is every reason to
believe that it will prove one of the
most important and advantageous Incl
dents in the company's long and sue
cessful career.

The Horses from elIman,s.

The committee appointed to buy a
horse for the city decided after going
to Brattleboro to look at a team, and
after consultation with the mayor, to
purchase an excellent pair of grays
offered them in Brattleboro for $3.50.
The horses are each about years old
and both are strong and well built ami
mails. Their color is somewhat darker
than that of the old gray team. as
would naturally be the case with
younger horses, and they are a heav-
Ter pair, Weighing some 200 now, and
being rather thin at that. The horses
were taken off a coal team, on which
they worked till Friday afternoon, and
the committee saw good tests made of
their working qualities and general
hardness as a team. The pair will
be assigned to the steamer hose
wagon.-[ Keane Sentinel.
