People point to the postoffice as an
analogy for government ownership of
the railways. But the postoffice is an
example of extravaganza and waste of
capital. The more we have of this the
worse it will be for US. Prof Seligman,
the eminent political economist of Co.
lumbia College, says that by private
management about $40, 900, 900 per an
mum could be saved without 1mpairing
the postal service. He got this from a
former Postmaster General, who de-
clared that as much as the sum named
had to be squandered on account OF
political exigencies.

A CAREER FULL OF ROMANCE.

1t is about certain that Cecil Rhodes
will not live to see the end of the war
which, practically, he inaugurated At
last accounts he was at deaths door.
In fact, for several weeks his condition
has been so precarious that his death
has been expected at any moment.
There will be much said about him
when his death is announced, for he
he has played quite large part in the
worlds affairs. Some of the papers are
now comparing him with Robert Give,
who went to India as a clerk of the
East India Company and founded the
British Empire there. Rhodes went to
South Africa before he had completed
his university course. He sought
health in the climate of Cape Colony.
After he had obtained his degree he en-
gagged in mining in Kimberly and be-
came enormously rich.
There is not much doubt that he is
ambitious to be known in history as an
empire builder. While he was growing
rich he planned to make the whole of
South Africa part of the British En-
pire. His first movement with force IN
that direction was the Jameson raid.
Thas was the beginning of the present
war. If he could have foreseen how
desperate the resistance of the Beers,
and how enormous the cost to Great
Britain would be, it is a safe statement
that he would not have made that raid.
At the very beginning of his career in
South Africa he made his influence
felt. He was recognized as a man far
above the ordinary, and consequently
his rise to prominence was extraordi-
narily rapid. There is no doubt, of
course, that his enormous wealth aided
him greatly in carrying out his ambi.
tious schemes He took his degree at
Oxford in 1881 and was premier of the
Cape cabinet in 1891 Between these
two dates he accumulated the greater
part of his fortune, which, at one time,
was estimated to be quite as much
as $50, 900, 900.
Never strong man physically, he has
worn himself out in the accumulation
of wealth, and in carrying out his am
bilious schemes for empire. At 40
years of age, just at the time when he
ought to be in his prime, he has reach
ed practically the end of his earthly
Journey The work he aimed to accom-
plish may never be finished and the
wealth he has accumulated will be en-
ioyed by others who, perhaps, do not
bear his name.-Savannah News.

Mary Dumas OF Granville was tried for
the murder of her born babe, in coun-
ty court at Middlebury and the jury ON
Tuesday brought in verdict of acquittal.
On July Dist last the respondent gave
birth TO an illegitimate child and later in
the day brother OF Miss Dumas made APP
plieation to Health Officer Hubbard for
burial permit, it being claimed that the
child had been born dead. The permit
was refused and the investigation which
followed indicated probability that the
child had died from criminal negligence
or from malicious intent.
The autopsy showed that the child had
upon the back OF its head three marks OF a
triangular form, and the skull bones were
broken in and tiattened; the lungs we're
removed and floated in a pan OF water,
which was claimed to prove that the child
had at one time breathed.
The respondent had no means to furnish
defense for herself and the court assigned
Hon. William III. Bliss as her counsel
The defense was that the infant died OF
natural causes or was born dead, and that
the mother was not eriminally response

Seldom il ever has South RoyaltOn seen
prettier home wedding than that which
was solemnized at the residence OF Mr..
Arson p. Skinner Christmas day at high
noon when his only daughter, Edith, was
united in marriage to W. Clogston Of Bos-
ton, Mass, in the presence Of immediate
relatives and friends.
The rooms were simply but prettily dec
Grated with ferns and eyergreens. Direct
~ over the wedding party was a huge
bunch Of white pinks suspended from
ropes Of evergreen by white ribbon.
At precisely twelve o'clock the strains of
Bridal March from Lohengrin resounded
through the house, finely executed by
Miss Lizzie Adams, and Miss Skinner and
Miss Isabel Martin, her bridesmaid, and
Mr.. Clogston, with Mr.. Leon Skinner,
brother of the bride, as best man descend
ed from the upper hallway.
The ceremony was performed by Mr..
Mann, pastor of the Cong1 church, and
was beautiful in the extreme. Soft music
was played throughout the service.
The bride was attired in white silk null,
cut en- train. trimmed with ribbon, .tueks
and insertion. She carried large bouquet
of brides roses. Miss Martin was dressed
in blue null and carried bouquet OF
pinks.
A reception followed the ceremony,
Miss Day having charge of the catering,
Miss Florence Spaulding and Harold Fish
serving.
For some weeks the well-known dress
makers, Miss Day of South Royalton and
Miss Mayo of Bethel, have been busily en-
gagged upon Miss SINNERS wardrobe,
which seldom has been equalled in style
or quality.
The couple left on the 2:10 train for Bos-
ton where they will make their home.
She was attired in beautiful slate broad
cloth trimmed with Persian embroidery,
furs Of gray fox and hat and gloves to
match. The presents testified to the high
esteem in which Miss Skinner and Mr.
| Clogston were held and many were the
good wishes which followed them.

Christmas at Town Han.

The Christmas exercises in the town hall
Tuesday evening, Dec. 2ith, were consid-
cred by all TO be a great success. The
children entered into the spirit Of the oc-
casion and all took their parts nicely.
The most attractive number on the pro-
gram was entitled ''The Offerings of the
Year, - taking Is characters. The part of
Hope was taken by Miss Alice Corwin, who
was most admirably adapted to the part
and carried it out very beautifully and inn
pressively. She was very becomingly cos
TUNED in Greek gown and carried the
anchor OF hope. The different months of
the year were represented by the follow

on the altar for the Christchild whose
birthday they came to celebrate. They
were followed by the kings bringing their
gold, frankincense and myrrh. The kings
were Frank and Dan Dickinson and Char
lie Little.
At the close OF the exercises Santa Claus,
with his six reindeer Tor rein dears), was
louiu W NC AT Aiit AbOI WIN a blE 0hNh VI
candy on his back. They opened the
doors for him to enter, when he drove up
the center aisle, looking as Santa Claus
pictures always do, with long white beard,
pointed cap and fur coat. He distributed
his candy among the children in the hall.
Santa Claus was well represented by Harry
+. Bryant and his six reindeer by Pauline
Darling, Doris Emery, Grace Densmore,
Ethelind Sargent, Vera Beckwith and
Anna Dearborn.
The nice large trees, which were contrib
uted for the occasion by Charles NJ. Blais-

took long time to strip them OF their
Christmas fruit.
