Strike in Bellows Falls Paper Mills.

The entire Fall Mountain plant OF
the International paper company OF
Bellows Falls was shut down Thursday
night, by order of Superintendent John
C. Riley. Four men in the shipping
department refused to 60 to work un-
less their wages were advanced from
81 80 to 81. - per day. The strikers
places could not be filled and as a re-
suit of their refusal to work, 800 men
were thrown out of employment pend
ing a settlement of the differences. No
shipments of paper could be made and
the shipping department became
swamped necessitating the stopping of
manufacture until the cars could be
loaded. At a meeting of the local
branch of the civic federation Thurs
day night the union members, it is
said. decided to stand by the striking
shippers, and long and bitter strug-
gle is indicated. The Office force at
tempted Friday to clear away the ac-
cumulated paper that is ready for ship
ment, but little progress was made.

should stay by their guns until the
last moment
The chairman then pounded on his
table in vain, and it was fully ten
minutes before order was secured and
the business of the convention re-
sumed. Col G.. \. Miles of Brattle-
boro then moved that Gen. McCul-
lough's nomination be made unani-
nous and it was so voted.
f. NJ. Bartlett of Island Pond, F.
W. Baldwin of Barton and H. S. Stan
ton of RoXbury were then presented to
the convention as candidates for lieu
tenant governor There was no choice
on the first ballot. Gen. Mccullough
then took the platform and made
! brief speech. He was received with
much applause. He said he was glad
that it has at last been discovered that
he is not a man without a country. He
urged Vermont to roll up a big major
| ity in September and set the pace for
her sister states. The meeting then
adjourned.
After supper the name of Z. NJ.
Bartlett was withdrawn from the list
of candidates and a second ballot re-
suited in the nomination of L. S.
Stanton. John L. Bacon of White
River Junction was nominated for
state treasurer by acclamation and F.
G. Fleetwood of Morrisville for secre-
tary of state, by unanimous vote
Two ballots were required for the NOM
ination of II. f. Graham of Crafts
bury as state auditor The other can
didates were: Charles H. Thompson
of Brattleboro, Silas W. Flynn of st.
Adams. Horace W. Bailey of Newbury
and Max L. Powell of Burlington.
Mr.. Thompson had 81 votes on the
first ballot and 30 on the second.
The convention adjourned at 8 30.
After the Clement delegates left the
convention they marched to the sta
tion where 1000 people were assem-
bled and called repeatedly for Mr..
Clement, who was in his private car.
They were highly excited and indig-
nant particularly DR.. Peck of Bran
don, at the way they had been treated
in the convention. They called loudly
for Mr.. Clement to run for governor
and he appeared and said, ''If you ask
me to accept the leadership, | shall
say | am ready" \ big mass meeting
was held in the opera house in the
evening, in which the action of the
chairman in the convention refusing
to recognize Dr. Peck and the acts
of the Mccullough delegates in max
ing faces at him while he was speaking,
were denounced; while story of po-
litical corruption from Burlington was
pronounced disgrace to loyal Repub
iicans. The turbulent delegates were
finally advised, by Mr.. Clement and
J. c. Jones of Rutland to be calm, and
carefully before taking any
action. If after due thought by the
people of Vermont other action is
deemed necessary and best, a mass
in which all the people of
the state interested in good govern
ment could have voice could be
called. Mr.. Clement said that the
adoption by the convention of local
option and purity of the ballot planks
was a signal victory as far as he was
The meeting then ad-
iourned.

A writer in the London Fortnightly Review, in discussing some statistics on the comparative consumption of beer, wine and spirits in the United States and Europe, is convinced that the American people are far more temperate than the inhabitants of England. Germany or France, and adds: The superior sobriety of the American workman as compared with the EnglishTan has often been mo- ticed. and observation in social grades higher than that Of the artisan tends to show that American superiority in this respect is a general superiority not confined to workmen only. The developed alertness and prompt energy of the American may, it is quite likely, be due in somt part to this relative abstinence from alocoholic drink which is now Illustrated

If your hair is turning gray it Is be- cause a newly-named bug" the pig mentophagus, is at work on you. A French scientist, M. MetchnilSof says so He says he has discovered the cause of hair turning gray Il is bacillus. which devours the colored pigment He has christened this pigmentopha5us. He says it is a voracious feeder. and proliferates with an activity approx mating perpetual motion. The strong vital resistance of youth keeps 1t down. but low vitality arising from care, grief, moral shock or sedenteriness favors it's growth and multiplication. M. Metchnikoff is studying means to combat it. Probably the pignentopha- gus fiourishes best in the Rocky Mountain region, as it has been dem onstrated that men turn gray more rapidly in Colorado. New Mexico and Arizona than in the eastern states.

huge sheets Of ice will advance from the polar regions, he said, ploughing through the earth's surface and be numbing everything for hundreds of thousands of years. At one time, he said the entire northern hemisphere was covered with ice of great thick
 ness and at another period Greenland supported a genial and luxurious veg etation." Prof. Ball spoke of boulders weighing 1,5OO tons being carried seven miles by glaciers and told of huge masses of granite being transported from England to Ireland by the same agency The cause of the ice age is a conGguration Of the earth with the planets Jupiter and Venus in Pisces. The proximity of the earth to the sun has but little to do with an ice age, but the procession of the equiuoXes is instrumental in the result. We get eS per cent of the suns heat in summer and g. per cent in winter. When 1t comes about as it does every astro
 nomical period of SO0O0 years or more, the summer is very short and the win ter very long, and the ice age results.

CHILD'S MEDICINE
 WHY?

Because Scott's Emulsion re- lieves such an extraordinary variety of children's diseases all the way from slight colds to the serious hip disease.
 Because Scott's Emulsion is asharmless as milk. Well borne even by the delicate stomachs of babies.
 Because children respond so quickly to its action. A medi- cine peculiarly suited to their sensitive nature. It is wonder Gul how rapidly delicate chil- dren improve in every way while taking Scott's Emulsion.
 Because children like the taste. Most of them like Scotfs Emulsion at once. The rest soon learn to like it. Little daily doses bring the results. SCOTT 6 BOVINE, 20 Pearl street, i'e7z York.

PICTURES or MEMORY.
(Alice Cary.)

Among the beautiful pictures
 That hang on memory's wall Is one of a dim old forest
 That seemeth best or all; Not for its gnarled oaks oldeH,
 Dark with the mistletoe: Not for the violets golden
 That sprinkle the vale below; Not fer the milk white lilies That lean from the fragrant hedge. Coquetting all day with the sunbeams And stealing their shining edge; Not for the vines on the upland
 Where the bright red berries be Nor the pinks nor the pale sweet cow
 slip. It seemeth the best to me. I once had a little brother With eyes that were dark and deep; Tn the lap of that old dim forest
 He lieth in peace. asleep. Light as the down Of the thistle, Free as the winds that blow. We roved there. the beautiful summers,
 The summers Of long ago. But his feer on the hills grew weary,
 And one of the autumn caves made for my little brother A bed of the yellow leaves. Sweetly his pale arms folded My neck in a meek embrace As the light of immortal beauty Silently covered his face. And when the arrows of sunset Lodged in the tree tops bright { He fell. in his saint-like beauty, Asleep by the gates of light. Therefore, of all the pictures , That hang or memory's wall 1 The one of the old dim forest Seemeth the best of all.
