St. Johnsbury Academy Notes.

The trustees of the Academy have re-
appointed Charles H. Stevens auditor
for the current year. The following
minute was unanimously adopted at the
last session of the board, and placed on
record:
Voted that this board, deeming the
completion bv Principal Comstock OF his
sixth year of official service for the Acad-
erny a fitting occasion therefor hereby
places upon it's records it's high apprecla-
ton of his administration OF the Acade-
nv during that period; its recognition
of the ability with which he has planned,
the efficiency with which he has worked,
and the faithfulness with which ne has
guarded its welfare. Six years ago ne
came among us an entire stranger ana
gradually discovered that large changes
in the administration of the Academy
were essential to its prosperity and that
it's debt must make the way slow and
difficult. In the brief interval he has re-
organized it's working force, broadened
It's curriculum, quickened its scholarship
and surrounded its pupils with health
full. moral and religious influence. HIS
conduct of the Academy, more than any
thing else, appears to have inspired that
most timely succor for which we continue
to give thanks to the unkno wn donor OF
"L. l.. and P. Fund" his qualities as a
man, scholar, and a citiz made much
easier the raising OF our emergency fund,
and the confidence OF the alumni III his ed
ucational leadership promises to tighten
the task OF providing an additional en-
dowment.
Such a record makes it meet that this
board congratulate Principal Comstock
upon the rich truitage of his labors tor
the Academy, which it earnestly hopes
his health and strength may enable him
to continue, and it hereby conveys to
him this testimonial of its appreciation,
respect and gratitude.
Edwin c. Lewis, teacher OF math'
ematics and political science, has re-
signed to accept similar position with

South Church Events.

The past week has been an eventful
one for the South Church, for yesterday
was the last day of the pastorate OF
Edward T. Fairbanks, and during the
time the great love that existed between
tae pastor and bis people has been DEM
onstrated in many ways, but always in
the quiet, unpretentious manner so
characteristic of the church. The first
gathering came on Wednesday evening,
when full vestry greeted the pastor at
the mid week meeting. At its close it
was suggested to him that his presence
was desired at home. There he found a
goodly company of invaders who came
to greet himself and Mrs. Fairbanks in
honor of their 4Orh wedding ann1vet-
sarv. Later more came, not only from
among the people of the South Church.
but from the North and other churches,
until it would be difficult to estimate the
number who greeted them on this occas-
ion.
At the morning service Sunday DR..
Fairbanks prefacei his sermon with a
few words iu appreciation OF the 1nvas-
ion of Wednesday evening. For the text
of his sermon, DR.. Fairbanks chose
2 Timothy 1:14-"That good thing
which was committed unto thee, keep.
In it no reference was made to the
occasion but the sermon was one OF
those characteristic discourses which the
people of the South church have enJoyec
so long and with which they are sc
loath to part.

what may be called the romance OF ma

A Romance of Galloway.

"The Dark O. the Moon" is a new novel
by s. r. Crockett, and the title seems to
have but little raison d'etre apart from
its fetching sound However, the novel
is good one, and nobody is likely to
quarrel with the name.
The heroine is the daughter of the lead
er of band of gypsies, and the hero a
young gentleman of Galloway, who is kid
mapped by the damsels father and held
for ransom. There is ~madcap girl in
1t, who masquerades in boys clothes. and
a gallant and determined officer with Il
name from Cornwall, who subjugates her
in time; there is an impressive outlaw
known as Harry POiwart, and there is a
bewitching middle aged woman. mother
of the hero known in her youth as May
Mischief. and not undeserving of that title
even in her later life. These characters
are led in wild dance through all sorts
of thrilling. exciting. and perilous scenes
and the plot is considerably involved
through the quixotic sense of honor which
seems to be the birthright of the hero and
heroine of the modern romantic novel. II
these people could have been arranged
without a sense of honor, perhaps they
would not have been heroes and heroines
at all but gone along and got married
comfortably without any trouble, like or

LITERARY NOTES.
"Leave to Print. !"

Queer use of the leave to print" grant,
ed By Congress is often made. The usual
practically which the ambitious Con-
gressman gets five minutes from the
House for a speech which he barely be-
gins before his time is up, the remainder
being printed and distributed at Govern
mcnt expense to his constituencies we'll
understood. But the rules are lax enough
to permit still greater privileges" Whole
monographs by eminent authors have
been worked into speeches by a request on
the part of the speaker to have such and
such a thing included" in his remarks
When he makes the request, possibly no
one within reach Of his voice has any
idea of the length or character of the in
cluded material. and consent is given as
courtesy. Perhaps the most notorious case
of this kind was the publication of Henry
Georges Progress and Poverty by q
combination of single-tax advocates in the
House, who smuggled in few chapters at
time as appendices to their speeches,
and then gathered the whole into a cam
paign pamphlet and scattered it broad
cast without paying a cent for postage.
The work had OF course been copyrighted,
but Mr.. George did not raise that issue,
so no judicial decision was obtained as to
the effect of sure free publication upon
an authors exclusive privilege.

VIKING DAYS.

to that of the present day that it is hard
even to conceive of It. It was life full
OF interest and adventure, alternating
with the dullest Information; of strange
knowledge and dense ignorance, of purity
and gentleness mixed with brutality and
sensuality.
In these days of easy transportation,
we sometimes forget that the people who
lived near seaport towns thousand years
ago knew something of the world, if they
did not gain their knowledge by telegraph.
The keen interest then taken in all news
and goods from foreign parts developed
the intelligence of the home staying popu-
lation, and life was not by any means
devoid Of picturesque interest, probably
even to the people who were alive at
that time. At any rate, it is interesting
now, especially when so cleyerly pictured
as it is in this book.
Not the least attractive feature of the
book is the Illustration. The pictures are
done in color from designs BY Troy and
Margaret West Kinney, and are fully
equal to the text in originality, spirit
and artistic completeness. Chicago: A.
