was begun yesterday, and the work of
training the team of bays will probably
begin today or Monday. The work of
Mr.. Hutchings in installing and train

has been most satisfactory to the
committee in charge. So effective have
been his efforts that the team Of greys
at the south side station now take their

manner that is highly satisfactory. Mr..
Hutchings is certainly thorough in his
particular line of work.

Toastmaster-Four Toasts Re-
sponded To.

Montpelier. Oct. 23-Thc annual banquet
Of the Vermont officers Reunion society
was attended by about 100 members of the
society with their wives and lady friends.
After discussing for an hour an excellent
menu Capt. Stephen Brown, the toastmas-
ter raped for order and called for three
cheers for President Roosevelt which were
given with will after which Governor
Mccullough was called upon to respond
for Vermont"
The governor after a few facetious re-
marks touched on the record of Nermont's
soldiers. The citizens of Vermont never
tire of telling their valor The soldiers
may die but a reunited country is their
monument and a grateful country Will
ever hold them in greatful remembrance.
Whenever put to the test the courage of
Vermont soldiers is always equal to all
occasions and superior to all oxgencies.
1t may be said in brief that the distin-
gushing characteristics of the Vermont
soldier is that he knows no such word as

THE POPULATION OF FRANCE.
Opinion by Dr.. jacques
Bertillon.

What do think? Well It Is very sim
rle. II the excess Of the death rate over
the birth rate continues to follow the
present average, before 20 years are over
France Will have ceased to exist" This
was the alarming opinion expressed re-
Gently by DR.. Jacques Bertillon, director
of the statistical service of the city of
Paris to a visitor who had called for pre-
else information on the subject, as It Is
already well-knowu that matters In this
respect have been going from bad to
worse, in spite of Senator Plots energetic
campaign against the depopulation of the
country. This authority added that he
meant what he said and was not using a
figure of speech. II consider" he con-
tinued, that the situation has never been
so serious as has been the case during the
past year or two as the evil, notwith-
standing all the efforts which have been
made to cure it, is only becoming more
pronounced Then he went into sober
statistics. W as there remedy? How, he
concluded. could there be one, when the
law set itself rcsolutely to lay every pos
sible burden on large families? Customs
duties the octrci. a number of taxes-in-
GLIDING the blood one were all grave det-
riments to the increase of the population,
for every Frenchman was officially invit-
ed II his cwn interest and that of his pos
terity to keep it down.
So explained Or. Jacques Bertillon, ar
guing that IL the law were modified af-
fairs might improve, But there are other
reasons which no change of this sort can
affect. Tire rural districts are being de-
serted for the towns, where large families
are u practical impossibilty, as, even il
they can be fed, they cannot b. lodged,

CRANK AND TREADWHEEL.
Abolition Of Instruments OF Torture in
English Prisons Fact.

The abolition of the treadwhoel and the

talents to the perfectlng of the first of
these penal contrivanccs the very sight

crimina with dismay. BY the prison act

wheel and the crank: but IN 1877 the per-
iod was reduced to a month The tread

with steps about eight inches apart on its
outer circumference working on an axle.
Each wheel had the honor of a separate
