LETTER TO E. w. BAILEY e. co.
Montpelier, Vt.

Dear Sirs: You understand grinding
wheat, buckwheat. rye, oats and corn. We
understand grinding whitehead and white
zinc. The two sorts Of grinding are not
much alike. Very likely oats and wheat
behave very differently in the mill, and you
manage them differently-we know very
little aboul your work; don't need to; we'd
rather depend on you.
But we paint your house and mill, and
out-buildings; perhaps you'd be glad to
know about grinding paint; for some people
mix their paint with stick in a tub.
We use lead and znc-nothing else. And
our zinc is as tough as your oats. Tub
mixers imagine they mix it. They DON'T
they can't. Takes grinding to mix lead
and zinc.
They are both white Tub-mixers don't
know III but tub-mixe lead and zinc Ia a
streak of one alongside Of streak of the
other.
We grind as you grind; and our paint is
lead and zinc ground together, mixed in.
timately; it is neither lead nor zinc, but
lead and Iii C; the lead is lost and the zinc
is lost each lost il the other; both lost in
the mixture. Lead chalks and zinc peels !;
lead and zinc ground together hang on and
protect each other.
We take care Of your mill outside; you
take care OF it inside.
Yours truly,

VERMONT BAPTISTS

While the Youths CoDpanion has a
worldwide circulation and has for many
years been most popular juvenile publica.
tion, there were but few OF its readers who
knew who was the owner and publisher or
that he was man who had started in the
world without dollar and had by his
thrift accumulated millions This man was
Daniel 8. Ford OF Boston, and by his death
the world lost great philanthropist al
though he was known personally to few
as SUCH He employed Rev. q. w. Law
son as his private secretary ,and large por-
ton OF his time was taken in meeting peo-
pie asking for help for different interests
Mr.. Lawson disbursed thousands of dol
lars yearly in the name OF Mr.. Ford. and
many supposed Mr., Lawson was Mr. Ford
The philanthropy OF MIR. Ford did not
cease at his death, for by the terms of his
will the Baptist Sta to conventions of Maine
Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachu-
sett5 were TO be provided for after certain
other bequests were paid, the residue OF his
large estate to be divided between the as
sociations named aud other missionary
organizations.
The Baptist State Convention of Yer
mont, of which Gen. j. j. Estey is presi-
dent, has in recent years been unable to do
the work 1t desired because of lack OF funds
with which to carry on the work of aiding
needy churches of the denomination and
opening up new missionary fields. There
came time when the evangelist or mis-
sionary employed by the convention had to
be Withdrawn from the field.
Rev. W. A. Dawson was elected to this
position little over year ago when it was
evident from Mr.. Ford's will that the Yer
mont Convention was to receive a fund, the
income of which would enable the work to
be carried on on even larger scale than
before and unremittingly. This fund it is
expected will reach S135, 900 aud about 81, 600
has already been received by the Yer
mont Convention. 1t is planned to use
about s35. 600 in aiding and improving the
needy parishes in the State and estnblishs
ing new ones.
A proposition was made to the Barre Bap-
tist church by the convention in which it
was provided that, if the church raised
$4,000 of its debt OF $4,000 on or before
June, 1902, the Convention would pay
$4,000. Rev. W. A. Dawson, who makes
his headquarters at Montpelier, has been
obliged to give up holding evangelical SER
vices for time in order to secure and To-
cate pastors in untitled pastorates and des-
titute districts. He has just secured a
Swedish missionary to work among the
Swedish population Of Barre and Montpe-
lier, OF whom there ale about 200. These
people are the best educated Of the immi-
grants and make 1rst.cass and industrious
citizens. Mr.. Davison's visit here at this
time was to confer with the Barre Baptist
church in regard to the help 1t is to get
from the Convention. He found that the
Barre church has already raised over 81, 900
OF the $4,000 required.

MIR. vANDERBILTS LECTURE

Before the Engineers Club of Yale
 University Last Evening-The Van
 derbilt Theory of Fire Box Explained
 Much Saving in the Amount of
 Coal Energy-steam Freely Generat-
 ed-The Lecturer Warmly Compli-
 mented.
 At North Sheffield hall last evening Cornelius Vanderbilt of New York city lectured before the Engineers club of Yale university on the development of the locomotive boiler. The lecture was irterspersed with many stereopticon views of drawings of boilers and photo- graphs of various old style and latest types of locomotives. The type of Van- derbilt locomotive, which was the cen ter of attraction last evening, and of which young Cornelius Vanderbilt is the inventor, was thoroughly explained and illustrated with many drawings of it's numerous parts. It is very much like the ordinary locomotive, the differ ence being in the fire box construction and the arrangement of the boiler tubes. The fire box is of circular con- struction, and its corrugated surface is so arranged as to dispense almost en- tirely with the heretofore considered Indispensable stay-bolt The number of pounds of steam per ton of coal gen. eraterated is greatly increased and the amount of horse power is somewhat multiplied. Mr. Vanderbilt recited sev- eral instances of actual demonstration of the economy of his type of firebox on the Baltimore and Ohio and the Union Pacific railroads attached to locomo- tives which were specially constructed after the Vanderbilt designs by the Baldwin locomotive works. They gen. erated steam much more rapidly than the ordinary boilers heated by the pre- vailing type of fire boxes and their liability to get out of order is very much less.
 In conclusion MT. Vanderbilt com- pared the various types of motors that may be practically employed on steam roads, such as the electric motor, gas engine, and other forms of motor whose power is genera ted from a central sta ton, but he has concluded from prac- tical as we'll as theoretical demonstra- tions that for heavy freight on long hauls the steam locomotive cannot be. economically displaced. Although on urban traffic where there are many short hauls and where the convenience and accommodation of the passengers are the principal ends to be attained the electric motors have been profitably employed.
 At the close of MT Vanderbilt's paper the audience showed it's appreciation of his labor of love for his alma mater by prolonged clapping of hands, while | those who were sufficiently familiar with the lecturer crowded forward to | personally compliment him on his very able paper.

VISITED THE PRESIDENT.
MR. M'KINLEY TO COME TO NEW X HAVEN IN JUNE.
To Attend the Laying of the Corner Stone of the New Y. M. c. A. Building Messrs. Betts and Lotze's Interview With the President Yesterday.

President Mckinley has partially promised to come to New Haven in
 June for the laying of the corner stone of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
 ton building. Ex-Insurance Commis- sioner F. A. Betts and Secretary w. G. Lotze went to Washington Monday night and secured the cooperation of Congressmen Sperry and Russell, also Senators Platt and Hawley. They ap- proved of the plan and Senator Platt made an appointment with the presi- dent and introduced the committee. The president was asked to come to New Haven at his convenience during the months of March or April. He stated that owing to his western trip and the probabilities of an extra session or con gress he would not be able to come dur ing March or April, but suggested that he might arrange to come early III June, as he had already promised to go to Middletown, Conn, during that month. He requested Senator Platt to see him again and discuss the matter more fully. The building committee ex- pect that the work on the new build ing will be far enough advanced so the corner SLOHe CdIl pS ldiu III AA1iSi " April, but arrangements will be made so the laying of the corner stone can be postponed until June and yet not 1n- terfere seriously with the progress of the building, as the entire rear portion of the building can be erected first. It is proposed to make the first visit ot the president to this city a memorable one and arrangements will be made for allginterests of the city to be represent ed on this occasion. The special pusi- ness men's committee which is planning to raise $5O,0OO for the new building has been waiting for this Interview and will now proceed with the canvass. The committee intend that every dollar of the money for the erection of the build- ing shall be pledged before the president arrives.
