1t is the understanding that the
case against the bondsmen of Geo.
w. Wiley, ex-county treasurer will
come up at the adjourned term of
court next Friday. Just what the
outcome will be, no one knows.
Judge Wall has been selected as the
pro tenn Judge to try this case. 1t
is fact, well known to our peoele,
that the treasury was found short to
the amount of over $500, during
Wiley's term of Office. He was tried
for embezzlement, but the jury re-
turned verdict of not guilty. The
money was gone just the same, and
the people are wondering what be-
came of itr
1t has been rumored that George
Wiley's bondsmen will petition the
Board of County Commissioners to
release them from paying any of the
shortage which may have been found
to exist while Wiley was treasurer OF
Meade county. We do not know
what view of the matter the Board
would take, but it seems as they
have gone so far that they could not
consider such a proposition. They
had better go on and try to gel
something. Both sides ought to
get together and effect settlement.
1t is well known fact that several
of these bondsmen did all in theil
power and succeeded in getting an
acquittal for Wiley, in the hope thai
if Wiley was acquitted, they would
not have to pay on any shortage.
A number of these gentlemen are
friends of the writer, and we always
regret to see them get such bad
deal as they have with Wiley. Itis
our opinion that if all the bonds
men had worked to convict Wiley,
that the Commissioners would be
much more inclined to be lenient
with them.

ment Of pathns, the menace Of trag-
edy. From the slavery of man they
have gone forth to the freedom of
the sea, which means, after all, that
they are stumbling blindly on to
that destruction which ultimately
awaits all things which are without
the law. Some of them last but a
day; others float for years. The av-.
erage number ahoat is usually about
twenty, but in, 1878 an average of
thirty-fve a month was reported.
Most derelicts are made off &he coast
of the United States in TIC gulf
stream, and they are prone to fol-
low in the wake of the liners. Often
they follow the ocean river around
its great circle, and many of them
get into the Sargasso sea-
The most notable derelict was the
Fanny E. Wolston, three masted
schooner, lumber laden, which was
abandoned Oct. Is, 1891, and was
last seen in 1894. She drifted at
least 10000 miles, following the
great circle in a zigzag way In this
she differed from the W. L. White,
a schooner which was abandoned off
Delaware during the blizzard of
1888. The White was a fast travel
er and started Immediately for Eu-.
rope. At times she attained speed
of thirty-fve miles day. She float
ed first to the Grand banks and hid
in the fogs that hang over that re-
gion. She stayed doggedly in the
mist, floating around and around In
a comparatively small circle, loom
ing up suddenly under the bow Of
liners, sending cold terror to the
hearts Of fishermen, colliding now
and then with other vessels and
making a general nuisance of her
self. After several months of this
fun she suddenly left one day and
continued her journey to Europe,
grounding at last on one of the
New Hebrides after a cruise Of ten
months and a drift Of 6 800 miles.
Then there was the Fred B. Tay-
Tor, a schooner cut in half off our
coast by the steamship TraYe. The
people on the Trave waited to see
the two parts sink; but, strangely
enough, they remained afoat. They
became separate derelicts, and each
went on a voyage of its own. The
stern stood high out of the water,
and the wind blew it north, but the
bow, sinking low, was carried south
by the cold shore current which
runs from Labrador south to Hat
teras between the coast and the gulf
stream. The bow was destroyed off
North Carolina. The stern ground

An Aid TO Digestion.

While the general opinion of those
supposed to be authorities on this
matter has been that the habit OF
drinking water at meals is a deleteri-
Gus one. it is now stated, according to
recent Investigations, that a little
water, if not too cold, is beneficial, as
it assists in the digestion of food. A
too copious supply of water dilutes
the gastric juice, and iftoo cold lowers
the temperature of the stomach be-
low normal, thus impairiDg digestion.
If, however, water is taken in limited
quantities, the peptones formed by
the action of gastric juice on food will
be- washed aside, thereby facilitating
absorption. By this means the undi-
gested food is laid bare and is more
susceptible to further action of the
gastric juice. During the period of
rest phlegm or mucus is deposited on
the walls OF the stomach. This
phlegm, being tenacious, prevents the
free flow of gastric juice for some
time, hence delays digestion. A drink
of watar before meals is recommend
ed, because it loosens and washes
away this deposit of mucus, thereby
permitting the gastric juice to attack
the food AS it enters the stomach

Useful Hints.

A dear old lady has given the infor-
nation that turpentine cleans tin or
zinc and makes it beautifully bright.
1t can also be used with great success
to clean white bath enamel that has
become discolored. Dip a cloth in
the turpentine, and with this rub the
stained parts, then polish with a soft
buster.
If, after hard day, you feel tired
out and fit for nothing, have a hot
bath, to which amonia has been add
ed in the proportion of a teaspoontul
to gallon, the last thing before get
ting into bed. Don't stay in the
water more than ten minutes at the
outside; then after a brisk rubbing,
jump into bed as quickly as possible.
To prevent a bruise from becoming
discolored apply to it a cloth which
has been wrung out of water as hot
as can be borne comfortably, and
change it as it becomes cold. Sup
pose hot water cannot be procured,
the next best thing is to moisten some
dry starch with cold water and to
cover the bruised part with it.--PhiE

SundaY.Scho0l Work.

A meeting of the executive board of
the Vermont Sunday School associa-
ton was held at Montpelier last
Wednesday evening, at which time it
was decided that it was for the inter-
est of Sunday School work that a
field secretary be employed, and the
members of the committee are soon
to decide upon the person who will
be appointed to the position. They
are considering the names of several
men who are highly recommended for
that line of work. 1t is the idea of
the committee that the work be con-
ducte on the same plan as exists in
Massachusetts, the State being d.
vided into districts and it is hoped
that through the district workers
and leaders to arouse more enthu-
siasm and bring about better work.
At the October meeting of the Asso-
citation, the matter of employing
field secretary Was left by special
vote to the members of the executive
committee, of which N. G. Williams,
OF Bellows Falls, is chairman. Mr..
Williams presided at the meeting.

How to Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign of
Group is hoaIseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy freely as soon
as the child becomes hoarse, or even
after the rough cough appears, and it
will dispel all symptoms OF Group. In
this way all danger and anxiety may
be avoided. This remedy is used by
many thousands of mothers and has
never been known to fail. 1t is, in
fact, the only remedy that can always
be depended upon and that is pleas
