Golden Gate on May %, speeded up the
coast for a distance of 1900 miles and then
turned eastward. through Nevada. Utah

en- route distance of more than GOO
miles was covered; an average of 10
miles a day was maintained up to the
time of reaching Chicago 36 days travel;

of the connectingrod and one broken

the engine. The vehicle would then pull
itself out of the hole This performance
was necessary seventeen times i'm one
day and from Grange to omaha never a

coming into use at least twice.
To cross a stream or creek where there
were no bridges did not prove very

required The method of reaching the
opposite bank usually was to put on al
speed and let the momentum carry tbs
vehicle across. When the auto stopped

Some of our state exchanges are nam

good old style in vogue before the seis-

1t seems in order to recall one or two
acts.
First, the Republican candidate for
Governor who secured the nomination in
the good old way failed of an election by
the people last fall.
Second. it is highly improbable that at
the next election the people of Vermont
will give their suffrages to
a nonentitY.

likely to be a man of positive character
and real achievement and pronounced
views.

Old Home Day.

old Home Day in Mortified was very
successful in every particular. The
weather was perfect, the number at
tending was large, and general spirit
of reunion and good spirit prevailed.
The exercises were held under the trees
near the ruins of the old Field house
which was burned a few weeks ago and
a more beautiful spot cannot be found
in the town. pT. n. Il. Wood as presi-
dent of the day had the exercises in
charge and after prayer by Rev n. Fay
Smith and music by the orchestra he in
troduced w r. Moody. who delivered an
excellent address of welcome.
Rev. q. Campbell Morgan, the orator
of the day, delivered "A very fine Grafton
upon Old Home Day, its Interpretation,
its value to the town, and then spoke
briefly upon the problem of the settle
ment of the laboring class in England
and America as the children grow up
and leave the old home for a permanent
place in the world. His address was
spicy and eloquent and was frequently
cheered in its course. DR.. Wood then
introduced the poet of the day, DR..
Electa Brown. a former Mortified wo-
man, and she did great credit to her
self At the close of the poem she was
presented with a beautiful bouquet from
ona of her former pupils. Short ad-

A basket picnic followed which was
productive of much pleasure and social
intercourse The afternoon was devoted
to athletics which were most exciting
and so closed one of the pleasantest
days in Northfields history. 1t seemed
to be the prevailing opinion that this
should become a permanent affair.
