Though there was anxiety and heart
aches at the Henry home during the two
long days , which brought no tidings of
the beautiful girl and her chosen lover,
there were also many amusing Incl
dents. Miss Henry might have counted
by the score admirers who before her
beauty bowed a knee and sought the sun
light of her smile. To decide among
them all which she had chosen, was the
problem which puzzled the household from.
Parents and sisters down to cousins, who
thought they knew The long list
gone over, their names as they could be
recalled written On slips of paper, and at
cnce by phone and messengers, pressing
the family servants into errand runners,
each person on the list was located.

found to be i'll town at their respective
places of employment. until the list was
completed, and then to get more names,
the family was again called together.

Sunday they came ana Miss Henry was

lover stroled in to keep his engagement

for particulars referred to the evening
papers.
ACQUAINTANCE OF SUMMER.
1t was learned last night at the home
of the fair ,Hg runaway that she had

lofty Peaks of Otter. and love sprang UP
a thrifty flower, blossoming ere the
winter came. DIR. Foster spent the sum-

while there shopping on an occasion.
He was soon in Bedford and later fol-
lowed her to her home in this city, when
he met her parents for the first time.

IMPORTANT DECISION.
The Vermont Supreme Court Decides
Question Affecting Life Insurance
Companies

The Vermont Supreme Court Decides
Question Affecting Life Insurance
Companies.
At the January term of the supreme
court, sitting at Montpelier, "a decis-
ION was handed down in the case OF
the Bankers Life Insurance company
OF the city of New York VS.. Fred A.
Rowland and John l.. Bacon, insur-
nnce commissioners. This decision
Is of great Importance to life insur-
ance companies not only operating in
this state, but elsewhere throughout
the country.
The question involved arose origin
ally in connection with the ruling
which the commissioners made re-
gnrding the construction of the poll
cies OF the Vermont Life Insurance
company of Burlington, the company
claiming the right to have its policies
valued as one year term policies the
FIRST year. This company subse-
quently reinsured in New York com
pany.
About the same time, companies of
other states writing similar policies
applied for renewal of their licenses
for the year 1900, and the commission
ers applied their own construction to
these policies and insisted upon max
ing valuations accordingly, refusing
10 accept the valuations made by the
departments of New York state and
other states. Among the companies
whose renewal license was refused,
was the Bankers of New York, and
after considerable controversy a pc
titiOn was filed with the supreme
court for a mandamus to order and
direct the commissioners to accept
the valuation of the Bankers policies
as made by the New York insurance
dapartment, and to renew the com
pany's license.
The case was argued at the OCto-
Der term of the supreme court at
Montpelier by Hon. b. F. Fifeld of
Montpelier and Hon. Seneca HaseltOn
OF Burlington, attorneys for the COM
pany, and by Hon. Fred A. Rowland
and Hon. John Young on behalf of
the commissioners. The opinion in
the case was written by Chief Justice
Taft, and concurred in by all the
judges. 1t is held that the action Of
the commissioners in refusing to ac-
cept the valuation of the company's
policies, as made by the New York
Insurance department, and to renew
the company's license, was erroneous
and contrary to the statutes of the
State. The opinion covers twenty
typewritten pages and discusses the
question at great length, and the de
cision is IN favor of the company in
every particular, and the commission
ers were ordered by the court TO grant
the license as applied for. e
A similar question in the case Of
another New York company was
raised in Massachusetts previous
70 the action above referred to by
the Vermont commissioners. This
question has not as yet been legally
determined in Massachusetts, but it is
believed that the Vermont decision
will have an important bearing there
on.

The Supremacy of the Senate.

From the Springfield Republican
The federal constitution gives 10
the House sole power to originate
bills for raising reYenue-and, i'm

The Senate at the same time is given

House yesterday was we'll grounded
The protestants were voted down by
an Overwhelming majority, but by no

The New Order Of Things.
From the Philadelphia Ledger,


The succession in rapid order of
such colossal deals as that of the pur-
chase of the Pennsylvania Coal COM
pany by the Erie, the purchase OF the
Jersey Central by the Reading, the
purchase of the Mobile and Ohio by
the Southern, the purchase OF the
Southern Pacific by the Union Pacific,
and, finally, this colossal steel combin-
alton, are so enormous in magnitude
and SO far reaching in their influence
as to be almost bewildering to the
students of the financial situation
There are bankers who shake their
heads, and say there is too much de-
pending on the life of one man, too
large a volume of new securities be-
ing put on the market, and too great
popular uneasiness to be created by
the forming of colossal combinations,
TO make the situation entirely safe.
But others see in the situation only
new order of things, the natural
and inevitable outcome of new con
ditions of national greatness. They
point at the rapidly growing wealth
and commerce of the country, and say
things have to be bigger because the
country is bigger and the men con
trolling them are bigger. There is
no danger, it is argued, in making pro
gress.

Napoleons Of Finance.

The Montpelier city fathers have

state just $4512 of it's profits on the
rum business for the past year. The
law provides that the state shall re-
ceive all in excess of 10 per cent.
profit on the total sales.-G Barre

What were the Montpelier aldermen
thinking of to be guilty of such gross
carelessness, as to let the state have
$4512 in profits on a 100000 years
liquor business? Montpelier people
no doubt feel disposed to impeach
them. 49, Rutland News.

Capt. clark's Reward.
From the Boston Journal. ]

From the Boston Journal.
Clark, who piloted his battleship
from San Francisco around Cape
Horn, and brought his ship ready for
action against Cervera. has never re
ceived any recognition except the in
tangible gratitude of his countrymen, "
and so forth. The intangible graft
tude' of his countrymen is really the
most precious recognition that Capt.
Clark could receive, lntrinsicallv,
it is far more precious than medals or
enlarged salaries or higher titles, for
it is honest, spontaneous, not to be
purchased with gold or silver and not
to be won with Hobbies and constitu-
encies. We think that Capt. Clark
will give first place to this "intangi-
BILE gratitude" even after he has been
suitably though tardily honored by
Congress.

MarshalI's Ideas Of Sovereignty.
From the indianapolis Sentinel. !

Justice Marshall recognized fully
and expressly that the full sovereign
ty was located in the people; that all
power emanated from them; and that
the constitution had been established
by them as a limitation on their Of
ticials as well as grant of power
to them. He believed in constitution
al government. He fought against
absomtism all through the Revolution
airy War. He championed the fed
eral constitution in the Virginia con
vention on the ground that it created
a limited and rational system of gov
eminent. 1t is an insult to his mem
DRY to pretend that at any time or in
any way he ever advocated arbitrary
rule or maintained that the creatures
of the constitution could be independ-
ent of it or superior to il, anywhere
or in any way,

Absence Of Young People in Hill
Towns,
From the Barre Times. ]

The vital statistics of the hill towns
of Vermont show some interesting
things. For instance, in the town of
Dover, one of the back towns of Wind
ham county and having a population
of only about 500, during the year 1900
there was but one marriage, indicat-
ing the absence of young people, most
of whom have doubtless gone away to
larger centres of population. That
the conditions in these hill towns are
conducive to longevity is demon
strated however, by the figures rela-
tive to deaths in this same town Of
Dover, During the year 1900 the
deaths numbered nine, OF these
three were infants less than four
years old while the other six had all
passed three score years and ten
One was 95, two were above so, while
the other three were between 10 and

uor sold $13,5O0 worth went to per.

ITIUH IHG DdIIV IIIHt5'I
There seems to be a general idea
that the recent newspaper activity in
behalf of General Grout indicates
that he is preparing to make another
try for the senatorship in 1902 when
the short term for which Senator Dill
bingham was elected expires. If so
it is but further evidence to prove
that General Grout has lost the as
tuteness with which he has many
years been credited.
