ONLY 249 LICENSES.

According to the Internal Revenue Records
in Vermont.
Taking the records of the internal rev.
enue commissioner as proof, there was
not very extensive selling of liquors in
Vermont during the last fiscal year-as
compared with other New England
States. The federal government issued
2I9 licenses for the sale of liquors at
retail in Vermont, while in Maine the
number was ,033 and in New Hamshire,
which is fairer comparison, the nun Der
was l,3iS. The number of retail liquor
licenses issued to Vermonters the pre-
vious year was 1926, which shows quite a
falling off. Probably a good many of
these licenses for the last fiscal year
were taken out for only three months,
for the accommodation of patrons at
fairs. etc.
Last year there were no wholesalers in
Vermont, at least no licenses were issued
therefor by the federal government, but
license was issued to one rectifer.
However there were 80 dealers in malt
liquors in the State, as shown by the
number of licenses issued by the gov
eminent and 10 wholesalers of malt
liquors. The total number Of special
taxpayers of internal revenue in YER
mont, including those above mentioned,
was ,257 last year as against l,250 for
the previous year. Last year there were
three dealers in leaf tobacco within the
State; eight dealers in manufactured
tobacco, three manufacturers of tobacco !;
80 manufacturers of cigars; 20 bankers,
39l prOprietors of BILLIARD saloons and
bowling alleys; lG brokers in stocks and
bonds; II custom house brokers'; three
pawn brokers, one proprietor of circus,
1874 prOprietors of other exhibitions com
ing within the license laws; and two
dealers of grain and kindred securities.
There were 30 factories in Vermont
having separate account, that were
manufacturing cigars during the last
fiscal year. They consumed 53,065
pounds of tobacco, during the last calen-
dar year, which were made into 5,196, 800
cigars, that weighed more than three
pounds to a thousand. Those are the
larger size of cigars which show that the
| Vermont smokers are fond of big smoke
and domestic cigar

IMPORTANT CEREMONIES
FOLLOW POPE'S DEATH

In writing about the advanced age
OF Leo XIII, Mrs. Belloc.L owndes says,
in January Lippincotts Magazine:
Often announced, yet still delayed,
that great day must come when this
monarch, more powerful than any
earthly ruler, whose proudest title Is
yet servant of the servants of God, -
will become merely one of the multi.
Great Judge. But after his spirit has
fled, the consequences to those who
are left behind are so important, and
the ceremonies which follow are so
august in their symbolism that 1t may
be well to picture them to ourselves
by way of preparation for this the
next great event in the history Of Eu.
rope and, inGeed, OF the world.
Let us place ourselves in magma

He finds 1t closed against him, and
then is handed to him a golden mallet,
with which he knocks on the panel

Then Cardinal Oreglia calls aloud the
name of the Pontiff-
"Giacomo Pecci."
Still there is no answer, and after
short space of waiting he enters the
chamber, Approaching the bedside,
