DIDN'T SEE HIM.
Crown Prince Disappoints 1000
People Gathered to See Him.

Two thousand people gathered at
the Central Vermont station Sunday
evening to catch a glimpse at His
Royal Highness the Grown Prince of
Siam as he passed through this city
on his special train from Boston to
Niagara Falls They were disappoint-
ed however, as the Prince and his
party were at supper when the train
reached this city at Z 10.
The Prince was met at Wells River by
Adjutant General Gilmore, represent
ing Governor Mccullough. Superin-
tendent Stanyan, Superintendent Soule
and Travelling Agent Bentley of the
roads traversed made up the railway
party to welcome the Prince at the
State line.
The royal train of five cars left
Wells River at 05, drawn by two
engines which were handled by En-
gineers Paige and Kane. Conductor
James Markham, Brakemen Bart Fitz-
gerald and T. o. Grady, with Fire
men Chandler and Fitzgerald made
up the remainder of the train crew.
Ten minutes time was lost at Grot-
on, as it was necessary to stop there
to raise the steam pressure which had
been lowered by operating the dyna-
mo used in lighting the train. Only
a snap shot glance was caught of the
Prince as the train drew into this
city, and but few knew that the young
man dressed in light suit, who drew
the window shade in the dining car
as the train stopped, was His Royal
Highness.
A wait of twenty minutes was
made here while Central Vermont
engine in charge of Henry Randall
was coupled to the train and Conduc-
tor j. q. Sweeney and Trainmaster
Keefe assumed charge of the train on
its way to Burlington.
Chief of Police Reagan and four
officers kept the crowd from the rails
as the train drew up before the
station and just before it left a mem
Der of the party handed the chief ci-
gars for himself and associates
While the train was awaiting the
of Young America, demanded loudly
that the Prince show himself and
cries of Bring him out, " "Show
him up "What does he look like?"
and "There he isl enlivened the
gathering. Several times a colored
porter appeared at the door of the
rear car and the enthuiasm of the
crowd would go up several points,
only to subisde when it was dis
covered that it was not royalty they
were cheering AS the train stopped
upon entering the city cheer was
started for the solitary individual that
stepped out upon the platform of the
rear car, but he quietly bowed and
told the crowd they were mistaken as
he had no title, being only a Penn
sylvania railroad official. Upon leav-
ing, the train pulled out about 100
feet and stopped, when some one
started the cry again of "There he
is" and in the gloom a brakeman got
big chunk of glory before the crowd
discovered it's mistake.

INDIAN SUMMER,

Throughout the middle zone of
North America there is season of
pleasant weather, occurring early in
November or the latter part of Octo-
Der, popularity known as "Iudian Sum-
mer." The distinguishing features of
the period are hazy atmosphere,
mild temperature and sunshine of a
grateful warmth and radiance. The
true cause of the phenomenon is not
well understood. By the early colon
lists, tradition saith, the blue, smoke
like haze was supposed to be real
smoke, from the burning over of the
western prairies at this period by the
aborigines Hence the name "Indian
Summer. - In Canada it is called
"St Martins Summer. By what
ever name known, or from whatever
cause, the season is the gala period of
the hunter, of the person who enjoys
stroll in the stubble fields or au-
tumn woods, or a drive over the hills
and through the valleys of New Eng
land region, and particularly among
the enchanting scenery of Vermont.
1t has been suggested that a process
of slow combustion goes ON among
the fallen leaves of the forests and
the blue haze rises from the funeral
pyre of dead nature. To one who has
noticed the thin smoke ascending
among the denuded trees, and the
canopy of light, ethereal blue hover
ing over the woodland areas, this the
DRY seems quite plausible.
Indian Summer and it's phenom-
ena have served well the fancies of
poets and the purposes performance, and
the brief period of reprieve, with it's
dreamy incidents, from the inevitable
rigors of winter is one of rare and
peculiar enjoyment.
Sunday was the Indian Summer day
of romance, of such romance as Wash
ington Irving, in former generation,
wrote into matchless tales by the
Hudson. Everybody was abroad.
The crack of the rifle or the report of
the shot gun told that it was the open
season for the partridge, or that some
dashing gray, high up in the tree top,
was resisting seige. The more APP
preciative or spiritual minded roamed
the fields, or climbed the hills, or
drove to commanding heights where
ridge on ridge the mountain ranges
faded away in the all enveloping haze.
In the distance Cancels Hump and
Mansfield dimly lowered amid the
mists of natures flameless funeral
pile. The scene was one of ineXpres-
sible glory, of indefinable impressive
ness, deeply enhanced by the "speak-
ing quietude that wrapt creation

PEOPLES CHURCH

Two hundred gathered in the new
Evangelical church on Mortified street
Sunday afternoon at 2 80 O'Clock to
listen to the dedicatory exercises of the
edifice which has been given the title
of the Peoples Church of Montpelier.
George H. Wilder of this city pre-
sided at the organ and after the
voluntary, prayer was offered by Guy
@. Lamson, pastor of the Baptist
church of this city. The dedication
sermon was by Bishop S. G. Brey-
fogel, d. D., of Reading Pa, and the
dedicatory services proper followed.
At the close of the service contribu-
tions were asked for and $500 in cash
and pledges was received which leaves
about $500 of debt upon the church,
Revs. n. NJ. Shaw and j. Edward
Wright of this city and many clergy
men from nearby towns were present.

Capt. b. f. Bowman, Bethel, YER
mont. Dear Bowman: - Yours of
Sept. I'd is at hand. Your plan Of re-
populating the State of Vermont, at
least during the summer months, |
think is good one. Vermont with
its beautiful scenery so varied, not a
man, woman or child but could find
some spot to satisfy their desire as a
haven of rest, for at least part of the
year.
There is fast growing desire in
the breast of almost every business or
professional man in our cities, to
own farm where he can retire for
rest and recuperation, and at the
same time take great pleasure in
identifying and promoting its inter-
ests. The move has quite generally
been inaugurated here i'll the west.
and no doubt to more or less extent in
the east, and | predict from this on,
the ball will gather force in its pass
ing
You ought to be able to locate many
people on those lands, and turn some
of the tide into that most charming
country for their suburban homes.
Why not as well as in Maine and New
hampshire? There are as many peO-
pie who sigh for land, rivers and
mountain streams as there are de-
voices of ocean. No doubt, the rail-
roads will work in conjunction with
you in the east along that line, SINH
lar to those of the western roads,
many of which have an immigration
department to look after just this
character of business and to settle up
the western prairies
approve of your plan, and your eX-
perience in colonizing the past six
teen years, and working along those
lines, eminently fits you for the pro-
motion of just such a scheme as you
propose; by the way, l want you to

and acres of land eligibly situated as

to five families of kin, can congre-
gate to pass the rest of our days.

A PERNICIOUS LAW.

Editor Waterman The auctioneers,
who were members of the Legislature
of 1900, procured the passage of bill
providing that no one should be al
lowed to act as an auctioneer without
license. They did this ostensibly to
add to the revenue of the State, but
really to enable them to take an I'M
limited revenue from those requiring
their services, and they have boosted
of their exploit ever since. Under
the working of this act none have
taken out licenses, except such men
as felt certain of large business, and
little if any more than property
enough to pay their bills have been
compelled to pay from 81 to $40, for
the services of an auctioneer for a
short half day auction which brought
in but small amount of money,
when just as good service could have
been obtained in the immediate local
ity for small fraction of the cost, if
it were not for that license law.
Auctions of larger dimensions are
taxed in proportion, resulting in the
enrichment of few men and heavy
burden upon the people at large, with
an income to the State that bears no
proportion to that burden and to the
injustice done to the poor and unfor-
tunate.

MEMBERS OF CONGRESS,

Washington, Nov. 3. -Elections for
members of Congress will be held in
forty two States tomorrow.
Three hundred and seventy eight
Representative are to be elected.
The Republicans expect to hold
most of the districts they now have
and to carry part of the new ones
There are some old districts they will
not carry On the other hand, they
will probably gain n few districts
from the Democrats or fusionists,
Their majority in the next House will
be narrow, though Secretary Over
street of the Republican congressional
campaign committee, says he expects
the majority of his party to be as
large in the next House as in the pres
ent House.
