THE GROOM'S SONG.

I'm sick of the song of the bride and
her bloom
Just harken to me for awhile-I'm the
groom.
l know I've no rights IN the case, but
That's right-all I get in the case is
I know I'm supposed to be silent and
meek,
But, hang it I'm bound to get reck-
less and speak
They re buzzing about what the bride
is to wear;
They're buzzlng about how she'll fix
up her hair;
They re quarrelling over the bridal
bouquet
l listen in silence to all that they say
They treat me as though l was chained
to my doom
Alack what am 1? l am only the
groom.
The best l can don is some black and
some white,
A horse-collar vest and bad case of
fright;
My hair will be combed as it's combed
every day;
I'd surely get mobbed if l lugged a
bouquet;
I've got to be meek and try bravely to
smile
The meekness will stand me in hand
after while.
Sing on of the beautiful bride and
her bloom;
But don't mention mel am only the
groom;
Just say che was dressed in conven-
tional black,
Then kindly forget me and hasten
right back
To rave DER the bride till you re
black in the face
I'm only the groom, and Pm learning
my place.

MR.. PLUMLEY'S LETTER.

The Northfield News publishes a
letter from Hon. Frank Plumley at
Caracas, part of which is given
here
MRS Plumley and myself had a
good voyage and an entirely safe ar
rival at Caracas. and have continued
well. The climate, while not at all
eXhilarating aud with no tonic in It's
conditions, is not uncomfortable at all
indeed we have seen no days here
comparable with some of the hot days
we get in Vermont, when it is very
hot. The, latitude, some 3, 100, is
what saves us, as we'll as the cooler
air which comes down to us from the
mountains, some 1900 feet higher
still, which surround this basin in
which Caracas lies. We have been
very fortunate in securing quarters in
the home of an American family, who
have been here some seventeen or
eighteen years, and are living in re-
markably fine South American house.
The house itself was built before the
earthquake of 1912 and stood the
shock. Its walls are very thick aud
strong. The interior has been made
over new within a few years by Mr.
Frost, the owner, at an expense of
some sou, OOO or more, and is one OF
the palaces of Caracas, house of TWO
stories, one of the few of that kind in
the city. 1t has IA main central court
within which are growing palms that
reach nearly to the level of our upper
porch where we are sitting. Our bed
rooms are large, being 30x20 and very
high posted, or rather they are not
posted at all, but the inner walls and
the dividing walls are made in the
same manner as the outer walls of
brick and adobe. / was told by Mrs.
Frost that the oil painting fresco
work on the walls around the upper
porch and below it cost SO, The
lower floor and around the court is of
beautiful tiling. Indeed our surround
ings could not easily be made more
comfortable anywhere away from
home.
both of my commissions are Or
ganized, and the British commission
has begun work of receiving claims.
Eight have already been presented.
There are eight other commissions sit

Probably the much discussed ques-
tion of when is man drunk" did
not occur to the officials at Brandon
when the following incident described
in the Union occurred Louis An
derson was put off the north bound
mail Wednesday afternoon at the sta
ton in an intoxicated condition. y
y He was completely paralyzed,
absolutely ossified, undeniably dead
drunk. His limbs seemd homeless, he
was as elastic as a bag of meal and a
Sunday school picnic could not have
Weakened him Thursday morning,
when the heavy iron doors were
opened, he had no idea what town
he was in or under what charge he

IN OPEN LETTER.

To the M ayor of Montpelier-Sir
The time has arrived. when | feel
compelled to make objections to the
recent posters put up in the town of
perrin by your city clerk, Mr.. Timothy
h. Merrill, June 81, 1903, that | may
Brotect and retain the value of ny
own property. My first objection is
this: | have in the grove five cot
tages which | have built and bought
and two others for which | have
leased land, all used for camping pur-
poses. Now one of the favorite
pastimes of campers has been bathing,
consequently / think prohibiting it
interferes with the letting of cottages.
While | do not advocate that it is
right to battle in your water supply,
| do claim that the restriction of
bathing takes one of the attractions of
my place. My second objection is of
far more Importance. | have a long
shore front of valuable land, some
thing like one half mile in length,
that | have had many chances to sell
into building lots and for lighthouses
etc. have never sold one rod of it,
believing that the time was not far
distant when the same land would
more than double in value, as so many
cottages and summer homes have been
built here in the last few years. In
short, 1 have held it for higher prices
| bought my property some three or
four years before the construction of
the Montpelier water works, and my
principle reason for buying was for
the summer resort, and l assure you
that if it was possible to take away
my summer business would not stay
with sixty five acre farm thirty
days. And now, Honorable Mayor, |
want to be a law abiding citizen. l
want to do what is right. If your
posters are to become law, want the
honest damages, for 1 consider if no
buildings can be built within two
hundred (200) feet of Berlin pond, it
very much depreciates the value of
my property.
Respectfully,
n @. H. Stewart.
Berlin, VT. June 30, 1908.

English military authorities would
like to interview. And it wouldn {
be long interview, either One of
these much waited individuals was
formerly colonel in the Russian
army, but had to leave it under dis
graceful circumstances. Another is a
Prussian ex-sergeant, who also got
into trouble at home. The rest were
European soldiers of various national
tiles. All of them drifted into Egypt,
where they abjured Christianity. pro-
fessed Northumberland and Joined
the forces of the Mahdi when that
strenuous party was at the height of
his power. Their military experiences
made them valuable, and as the Arabs
thought their converts were sincere
and looked upon them with the utmost
favor, all obtained responsible posi-
tions in the army of the Mahdi.
1.-THE Mahdi and his followers were
not inclined to deal any too gently
with Christians who fell into their
hands, but these apostates went far
beyond the dervishes in cruelty
Their presence with the Mahdi ulti-
mately became known, and the feeling
toward them among the English SOL
diers was quite different from that
felt toward the dervishes, who were
regarded as brave men and their le-
gitimate enemies. Yet, while thous-
ands of better men fell before the
sweep of the Maxims in the terrible
charge at Odurann, these apostates
escaped. At least their bodies were
not found on the battlefield, although
a most careful search was made for
them. 1t is supposed that they fled to
the South, and are now hiding with
some of the tribes of central Africa
or the southern Soudan. Should they
ever fall into the hands of the English
it will not take long to decide their
fate. The call of the wild, unre-
strained life is one that at times APP
peals to many. 1t is the old call of
the jungle and forest. But there is
little hope of retaining the man who
really yields to it. New York Sun.
