II was thin and pale, awfully ner.

times dizzy spells came over me so that
I could not stand up. There were al.
most continual pains in my back and
limbs and all over me. The doctor
called nearly every other day but did
not seem to improve and my friends
were alarmed for me when my mother
persuaded me to take DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. They cured me.
After taking them faithfully for while
my flesh and color returned, my nerves
became quiet and all my old troubles
disappeared. am strong now and in
perfect health and have no more fear
that shall go into consumption. I will
always recommend DR.. Williams Pink

BETTER WATER SUPPLY FOR

The village Of Proctor is making ar
rangements to increase its water supply
by drawing on a brook which runs into
Furnace brook at Holden, a village in
the town of Chittenden. The route over
which the pipes will run has been sur

readiness to begin the work. The taking
| Of water from this brook will affect the
water supply of several mills to a GER

system quite expensive. One farmer,

A handsome illustrated pamphlet from

handsome illustrated pamphlet from
the Gazette press dealing with the at
fractions and advantages of Hardwick
as a growing manufacturing town, is be-
ing circulated, and it can not fail to be
of advantage to that fourshing and pro-
eressive community. The complete and
comprehensive answer 20 the question
'Why did Pennsylvania come to Hard
wick for its State house, will be read
with interest generally, while that part
of the brochure dealing with the wants
Of Hardwick in the way Of homes and
laborers will inevitably attract both la
Dor and capital to that granite centre.
This is the sort of work for the up
building of the material interests of a
town that counts, and many other and
larger communities might we'll emulate
the public spirit and enterprise Of the
people of Hardwick.

terfeitng and burglars tools. The per-
sons induced to become partners in crime
were Mclean Marshall, a tavern keeper,
Ephram Low, storekeeper, and Peter
NJ Paul of Groton. Later in the trial
these men turned States evidence and
were acquitted.
on June 70. 1880, Bristol Bill and Meadows
were brought to trial, after preliminary
examination. the charge being that of
counterfeiting bank bills. The trial was
held Mt Danville, Bliss n. Davis, Esq,
States attorney, and Abel Underwood,
Esd. appearing for the respondents,
Among the witnesses were those who
turnes States evidence. Col. Jacob Kent
of Newbury, and Robert Darling, who
driver Daniel Coffrin, a local officer, Os-
car C. Hale, cashier of the Newbury
bank, Jonathan Peck, a blacksmith, Mar
vim Whitcher, and Horace Pierce, Keeper
of the Cooauck house at Wells River,
OF course the most interesting witness
was McMarshall, who detailed the whole
nlar and scheme Of robbinG all the banks
within a radius of 90 to rs miles. This
pamphlet details, among many other in
teresting events, Bristol Bits attempted
escape from the Danville Jail. The crown
ing event in this desperados list Of crimes
in Vermont occurred in the court house
at Danville, June 81 1850 when Bristol
Bill and his pal were brought into court
for sentence, when in an opportune mo-
ment Bill stabbed Bliss N. Davis In the
back of the neck with a case knife. The
scene is graphically described, and the
panic which ensued was probably never
eaualled in this county. Mr., Davis re-
covered, and the next day Bristol Bill
was taken to Windsor prison to serve
a ten years sentence.
This most interesting hundred page
pamphlet leaves Bristol Bill in States
prison. Can any one tell the Caledoniar
what became OF him? Is there anyone
now living who remembers seeing Bristo
Bill In the Danvile court house or iail
or who can give any personal recollecttons
of him, or who has a duplicate of Mr.
Bailey's pamphlet? The Caledonian will
be glad to publish articles on the sub
| iect.--St. Johnsbury Caledonian.

II 1t is true, as announced, that Senator
Quay of Pennsylvania is determined to
take Senator lianna's place as chairman
of the republican national committee in
the next campaign, there is likely to be
something doing between now and then.
At the same time we have thought all
along that gentleman by the name of
Theodore Roosevelt would have something
to say as to the identity of the chairman
of the national committee, and incden-
tally Of the man who is to have charge
of his campaign for reelection.

The Rev George c. Lorimer has given
a quietus at last to the prolonged con-
troversy which has reigned in fremont
Temple over the question of recalling
him to his former pulpit in Boston by an
nouncing that he will never become pas
tor Of the famous fremont Temple again.
The settlement of this question will be
welcomed by the general church public
as we'll as by the people of Boston; for
the struggle over the question had
reached a point where it threatened to
make both DR.. Lorimer and his former
congregation ridiculous.

Votes.

These figures give a grand total of $50
votes pledged to Mr.. Roosevelt. New Jer-
sey is not enumerated in the above lists,
but in the opinion of good judges New
Jersey will take the first available occa-
sion to come into line with a unanimous
delegation. Indiana is not enumerated be-
cause her State chairman has said that
she was for Fairbanks, first, last and all
the time" But dispatch from Indian
apolis quotes Senator Fairbanks as say
ing: 80 far as / know there will be no
opposition to President Roosevelt in In
diana The President will be indorsed."
North Dakota has not yet voiced it's senti-
ment, but there is probably no State in
the Union in which President Roosevelt
is more popular.
DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, president
of Columbia University. who has returned
from the West where he travelled for a
time with the President. declares that
Mr. Roosevelt has the full confidence Of
business men, wage earners and farmers,
denomination in 1904. President Butler
adds that any one who tries TO get up
an agitation on the lines of so-called anti
imperialism" or by attacking the army
will have his trouble for his pains. In view
of the entire outlook it Is predicted with
great positveness that President Roose-
Welt Will be nominated by reclamation,
when the next republican national con.
vention meets.
