THE PRESIDENTS TOUR.
Visit to Vermont Ends With an Ova-
tiOn at BrattIebOrO.

EAST NORTHFIELD, Mass, Sept.
| 2.-President Roosevelt concluded his
tour through Vermont at Brattleboro
| and passed last night at Mortified.
| The reception accorded him at Brattle.
boro was amang the prettiest, well
conducted and most enthusiastic which
he has received in his tour Of New
England. Upon arriving at the station
he was met by company Of infantry,
headed by band, and escorted to the
common, where he delivered brief
address, in which he spoke Of Abraham
Lincoln as the man of the hour in the
great civil war. He feelngiy referred
to the venerable Ex-Governor HOl-
brook, who was on the platform and
who accompanied the president Il short
distance through the state, as being
one of the few men who had received
= The distinction of being a war gov,
error.
The presidents progress through
Bfattleboro was q continuous ovation.
On the line of march his carriage was
stopped in front OF the leading hotel,
and from the balcony men, women and
children showered loose flowers and
bouquets upon him. Arriving at the
common, where he deliy1ed his I'D
dress, the pavilion steps were strcwn
with flowers by little girls, who were
drawn up on both sides.
Labor day was generally celebrated
throughout the state. Wherever the
train stopped holiday crowds We're
out to extend the president a welcome.
The heat was excessive. but the presi
dent seemed to suffer but little from
its effects. His remarks on the subject
of labor were confined mostly to trib-
ute to the people Of Vermont, and he
expressed his pleasure ut being greeted
by the representatives of organized la
Dor because. he said, the typical Ameri-
can is the man who works.
The president began the days Jour-
ney at Burlington. reaching that city
from Shelburne, the home of Dr. W.
Seward Webb. After a drive about the
city the presidential train started
southwark. stops being made at Yer
gennes, Middlebury, Brandon, Proctor.
Rutland, Ludlow, Bellows Falls, Ches-
ter and Brattleboro, and his Vermont !
trip was ended. He crossed into Mas
sachusets and went to Mortified as !
the guest of William X. Moody, son OF
the noted evangelist, Dwight l.. Moody,
at the Mortified hotel. The president ,
went to Round Top this morning to
visit Mr.. Moody's grave.
The president spoke at every stop
during the Vermont trip, but most of
his addresses were brief. That OF
greatest import was the one delivered
at Proctor, the home Of Senator Proc
tor, wherein he.deiined his idea of the
Monroe doctrine.
The most unique speech of the day |
was that delivered last night in the
here.

THE Democratic State Convention
will be held at Dover on Tuesday,
September 18th, for the purpose of
selecting candidates fer the offices
of Representative to Congress, State
Treasurer and State Auditor. The
Convention will no doubt be an or
derby one, as it will be Kenney
and salisbury combination, and run
in the interest of these two gentle
men. There will be no fighting for
any one Of the three positions, as
they will be empty honors for the
gentlemen selected at this Conven-
ton to run for them on the Demo
cratic ticket.
Ex-Congressman Handy would
like to have been kept on top for
Senatorial honors, but he was talk
ed out of that nonsense and told he
could have the nomination for Con
gresham. With that alluring bait
hung before his eyes, he quietly
pulled in his boom for u. S,Isena-
tor, and began to set his plans to
secure the nomination for Congress
second Time. If oratory will land
l.. Irving in the next House Of Rep
resentatives, he will be sure win
ner. But the Republicans have that
important position i'll charge and
will send Republican to Congress
who, in all probability, will be Con-
gresham Ball.
We all make mistakes, but it is
never too late to be shown where
errors have crept i'll and which can
be rectitied the next time.

|CLAIM DIXON
4. is ALIVE.

Snow Hill, Nd, Sept. IA ru.
NOR is current among the negroes
of Snow Hill that Asbu1y Dixon,
the murderer who was hanged last
Friday, is still alive and kept in
hiding by Ernest Dixon, one of the
brothers, in "Indiantown' neigh
borhood. The story goes that when
the body was taken to the home Of
DiXon's brother, Ernest, the coffin
in which it was placed was put in
the house while the undertaken
was making final arrangements for
the burial. In his absence curious
sound was heard in the coffin and
the lid was taken off by the friends
who had gathered for the funeral.
1t was found that there were signs
of life, SO the body was hastily re-
moved to another room and various
articles hurried into the coffin and
the lid replaced. This was, with all
due care, buried by the undertaken
who went his way content in the
belief that his work had been well
done. In the meantime stimulants
We're applied to the man who had
been pronounced dead, and now he
is in hiding, watching for an OPP
portunity to get out of the country
and start life anew.
The story is being freely circulat-
ed among the negroes and is firmly
believ ed by many. No credence,
however. is given to it by tbs
white people. 1t was q minutes
before he was cut down and life ,
was pronounced extinct by tho sur
geon in attendance 1t brings to
mind, however, the threats said to
have been made by Dixon's broth
ers before the hanging that it
would never take place, that AS
bury would be taken away from
the sheriff. that he would not dis
on the scaffold. These threats are
now constructed by some n the ne
groes to have been a prophecy and
its fulfillment the report now be-
ing circulated. But such stories
are always current among negroes
who banker after the supernatural.
In connection with the hanginGa
superstition has come to light that
Il piece Of the rope used in an exc
cution, if placed around the neck Of
a man afflicted with fits, will prove
sure cure. When Somerfeld Dennis
was hanged four years ago farm.
er i'll the county secured piece Of
rope from Sheriff Harrison to use
for that purpose on one of his farm
hands. Whether it was successful
has not been reported.

DO CROWS REASON2
which seem to Have Thought
About Things,

The following stories of the crow
we have on the authority of I'm
beaten Tracks in Japan" They are
related as happening in Yezzo, the
northern island of the empire, where
these birds are feature of the coun-
Try:
There are millions of them, and
in many places they break the silence
of the silent land with Babel of
noisy discords. They are every
where, and have attained degree
of most objectionable impertinence,
mingled with cunning and sagacity
which almost puts them on a level
with man in some circumstances,
Five of them were so impudent as to
alight on two of my horses, and so
be ferried across a river. In the inn
garden at Mort | saw a dog eating a
piece of carrion in the presence of
several of these covetous birds. They
evidently said good deal to each
other on the subject, and now, and
then one or two of them tried to pull
ohe hiV"p away 'ioii hlih' "IlcH lie
resented. At last, a big, strong crow
succeeded in tearing off piece, with
which he returned TO the pine where
the Others were congregatcd, and
after much earnest speech they all
surrounded the dog, and the leading
bird dexterously dropped the small
piece within reach of his mouth,
when he Immediately snapped at it,
unwisely letting go the big piece for
a second. and two of the crows flew
away with it to the pine, and with
much huttering and hilarity they all
ate it, the deceived dog looking va
cant and bewildered for moment.
after which he sat under the tree
and barked at them.

TOMORROW l. Thanksgiving
 day and desi gnated as the
 day to give thanks for the
 manifold blessings showered
 upon the nation and our peo-
 pie during the year. Arizona
 has cause for rejoicing Tn
 benign blessings visited upon
 our territory, and Cochise
 county in particular, is thank
 iul in being thus favored
 Here nature has been prolific
 and generous as an endow-
 ment for man and its riches, yet hardly touched, are being
 distributed to the busy com
 mercial marts while each succeeding year shC ws a eady, healthful growth in Prosperity and consequent happiness Arizona is thank ful and duly grateful for these conditions Tombstone has
 much to be grateful for. The resusitation of :he famous city which is about to exper- fence an industrial prosper ity and mining success neve- heretofore equalled; the con nection by rail, and the on coming march of progress, is a pleasing vista which are re- called with feelings of thank fitness. As the keynote of Arizona's thankfulness, the following brief excerpt of Coy. Brodie's thanksgiving proclamation expresses in general the sentiment of a grateful people: - "T h C treasures of earth have been given to man in increasing | quantities, the people of Ari- zona as a whole have enjoyed good health. and general con- tentment, peace and prosper lty have been their portion. oulely a people so richly blessed should rejoice and offer from their hearts words 'f thanksgiving to an all.wise Providence"
