There were over 900 Masons in the
parade. During the parade the To-
cal Knights Templar acted as an
escort for the grand commandery, the
local chapter Masons escorted the grand
chapter, and the local blue lodge escort
ed the grand lodge of Vermont After
passing through the principal streets of
the city the parade proceeded to the fair
grounds south of the city, where ban
quet was served in the large building of
the Rutland Kennel club, the weather
being considered too severe for an out
of-door bake. A large proportion of
those in the parade partook of the bake.
At 3 o'clock the Masons returned to the
temple where the dedicatory exercises
proper were held, the temple being dedi-
Gated by Charles R. Montague of Wood
stock, grand master of the grand lodge
of Vermont.
The services were continued in the
evening with a reception at o'clock,
and grand ball at 8. Those who re-
ceived were Thomas P. Bragg eminent
commander of Killington commandery
of Knights Templar, Joseph M. Bushey,
excellent high priest of Davenport Chap
ter, Royal Arch Masons, Bertram L.Dice,
thrice illustrious master Of Davenport
Council, Royal and Select Masters, G gorge

of wood or other combustible material.
Over the iron ceiling is layer of con-
crete and the floor beneath is on iron
supporters SO the building is absolutely
fire proof.
The plans contemplate second floor
to the Jail. This floor will be divided
into nine cells and one large room, occu-
pying the space of three cells. This floor
is divided in the center by solid wall,
thus making four distinct sets of cells.
This is done so that there may be prop
er classification of prisoners. The large
room is designed for the use of prisoners
who may become sick. The plans also
contemplate the erection of an addition
on the east side of the Jail to be used as
an office for the sheriff. The house which
is occupied by the sheriff will not be re-
modelled. -..
The plans will be submitted to the
county Legislative delegation immediate
ly and some action will be taken. Judge
llolbrook was asked if the judges had
considered changing the location of the
Jail and he replied that they had not, and
that such proposition would have to
come from Burlington. He remarked
that a new building could be built for
about the same expense that would be
involved in reconstructing the present
one.

The County Jail.

The plans for the proposed reconstruc-
ton of the Chittenden county Jail were
examined recently at the county clerks
office by assistant judges E. T. Holbrook
and J. II. Allen, representative of the
firm with whom negotiations have been
in progress being present. According to
the plans the shape of the Jail will be
changed from the octagon form to a
square structure. The present steel cage
will be taken ont and the floor space will
be devoted to II individual cells. Six of
these cells are on one side of the struc-
ture and six on the other, the rear part
of each cell being toward the centre of
the building. The two sets of cells are
entirely separate and the prisoners in one
set can have no communication with
prisoners in the other. In front of each
set of cells is a large corridor, which is
separated from the outer walls of the
jail by an iron grating, thus making it
impossible for the prisoners to have COM
munication with the outside world. Each
cell can be locked by the sheriff or keep
er separately or they can be locked to-
gether. and this can be done automati-
cally without his coming in contact with
the prisoners. Connected with each cell
is a lavatory and wide bunk is also in
stalled. The interior portion of this
lower floor does not contain particle

Colonial Danes.

The opening event of ladies' week at
Montpelier occurred the evening of Octo-
Der q, in Representatives hall, when
Hon. G. G. Benedict of Burlington deliv-
cred an address before the state society
of Colonial Games. 1t was large and
brilliant audience. In it were Governor
Mccullough, Lieutenant Governor Stan
ton, Senator Proctor, Representative Has
kins, Judges Watson and Start, of the
supreme court, ex-Governors Stewart
Barstow and Stickney, members of the
society from all over the state and many
prominent citizens of Montpelier. Colo
mel Benedict was most happily intro
duced by Governor Mccullough. His
subject was "Some Colonial Conflicts, -
Mr.. Benedict spoke of the increasing
interest taken in our day in historical
and genealogical matters and in pride of
honorable ancestry. He alluded to the
valuable service which societies like this
are performing in preserving records,
marking the sites of important events
and cherishing the virtue of patriotism.
He noted the especially valuable service
performed by the patriotic societies,
which cut across the lines of division
caused by the Civil war, and in recalling
events antedating that conflict, events in
which the people of the north and south
have joint and equal interest, serve to
cultivate common spirit of devotion to
the Union. He then took up the con-
flicts of the English colonists with the
original owners of the soil of America,
mentioning some of the principal events
in the earliest struggles with the Amer
lean Indians in Virginia and New Eng
land, in the Pequot war, in King Phillips
war, in King William s war, Queen Anne's
war, King Georges war and the French
and Indian war, closing with reference
to Hannah Dustin's capture by the Indi-
ans and massacre of her captors in New
Hamphire, in March, 1897, as one of tho
experiences to which the early settlers
were liable and from which the Danes
of our day are happily free. At the close
of the address on motion of Governor
Mccullough, Colonel Benedict was ten

The human system in old age must have
sufficient store of nervous energy, ana
rich, nourishing blood, so that the liver
and kidneys may be kept in perfect action,
and the body free from pain. Paine's Gel
cry Compound is the true invigorator when
old age creeps on and the vital powers
commence to fail. Paine's Celery Com
pound gives the needed stimulus to diges-
ton and assimilation that the system re-
quires; it maintains regular supply OF
pure blood and removes such troubles as
rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous weakness,
heart palpitation liver complaint and diges..
tive disturbances, that make the lives OF
old people miserable. Rev. John Rice,
Scotch Grove, Iowa, says:
"My wife and 1 have used two bottles of
Paine's Celery Compound with the great
advantage to our general health. 1t cured
her rheumatism and proved good regula-
tor of the system in general and tonic for
nerves. In my own case l havefound 1T

age, as 1 am now in my 10Th year. In this

The Hunting Season at It's Height.

1t is now getting on towards the last
of October and while hundreds of sports
men are tramping the Maine woods in
search of game, hundreds more are pre-
pairing for trip into the same wilds.
The season thus far this year has been
a remarkable one. The through trains
have brought home daily score or me re
deer and moose and more moose have
been seen and shot this year than in
several years past. Some grand speci-
mems of the moose family have been
brought out of the woods, and now that
the snow has just begun to cover tt e
earth, hunting for moose will be east r
and more interesting.
Plenty and abundance is the cry of the
huntsmen who have returned. If you
are going, send two-cent stamp to the
