Thirty members of Coral Chapter
No. 16, O. E. S went down and took
Sickle Chapter No. "a, of Stowe, by
storm last night, the most of them
via Andrews. 1t was a Jolly crowd
and everyone reports grand good
time. Sickle Chapter worked the de-
gree in very creditable manner on
two candidates and a "side. splitting"
degree on five of the "boys" who
have but recently taken the degree of
the order. Some of the visitors
thought they must surly have fed
their goat on poor oats and shingle
nails to account for the under pin
ming of the said animal.
After the work all sat down to one
of the noted spreads furnished by the
ladies of Stowe, "nuff sed." At the
early hour of 1920 the visitors
started for home, where Andrew
landed all safe and sound at two a.
N. All glad to get home and all glad
they had gone.

Word was received here last week
Of the death of Mrs B. F. Hyatt of
Findley, Ohio, which occurred as the
result of a shock Jan. 13 She was
stricken in a similar manner two
weeks before her death and again
the second time, which resulted fa-
tally. Mrs. Hyatt was a daughter
of the late VIM. Keller of this place
and great granddaughter of Judge
Nathaniel Sawyer. She was born
here about sixty years ago. She and
her husband, who died in similar
manner about three years ago,
were frequent visitors here and spent
several summers at "The Randall"
in Morrisville. They were both very
genial people and took great delight
in visiting Vermont, where they had
many friends.
Col. Sawyer of this place is proba-
bly, the only living person in this
town who has seen Abraham Lin
coin alive. The Colonel saw him at
Chicago in 1853, in one of those
famous Lincoln Douglass addresses.
In that year the Colonel, at the earn
est solicitation of the late Perry D.
Martin, who had gone west from this
place, visited Minnesota and on his
return heard Lincoln at Chicago.
The Colonel returned to Vermont
fully converted to two things-one
that Vermont was u good enough
state in which to live and the other
that slavery should be abolished.
Two years later the Colonel was one
of the delegates from this state to
the National convention that nomin-
ated Mr.. Lincoln for the Presidency.
He was the youngest of the delega-
tion and its secretary.

Basket Ball.

The double bill basket ball enter
tainment at the Gymnasium last
evening was a success in every par
ticuaF. A large crowd was in at
tendance and about $40 was cleared,
which amount will go to buy suits,
etc. for the Gym team. The attract
ions were games between two young
lady teams, one representing Z. A.
and the other the town, and the
P. A. and regular Gym" teams.
The halyes were played alternately,
the young ladies making the first ap'
pearance. This game was a great
exhibition of skill, not a foul being
called on either side. The game
final y resulted iu q score of 8 to in
favor Of the town team. Miss Dodge
carried off the honors, making three
baskets. The score was made as fol-
lows:-For P. A., Miss Boynton 4,
Edna Rublee 2; for the town team,
Miss Dodge 6 and Emily Rublee 2.
The game between the regulars J"
and p. A. was fight from the start.
The favors were about even in the
audience and "rooters" for both
sides were in evidence. p. A. took
the lead from the first, Waite throw
ing a basket before the bali had been
in play minute. In the first half
p. A. got tour baskets from the field
and they were all thrown 10y the two
forwarus, Waite aud Eaton. In the
second half the town team took a
brace aud gave P. A. the warmest
twenty minutes work they have en-
countered this season. 2. A. only
scored ouce in the second, while the
regulars" made two baskets, two
from the field and one from foul line.
The final score was 10 to z in favor
OF z. A., adding one more to their
list of victories.

Some students of American history
Will be interested in the statement
positively made by Edmund Gosse be-
fore the Royal Geographical society at
London recently. This authority de-
clared: "Walter Raleigh never set
foot in North America, yet 80 peril
nacious is the legend connecting him
with Virginia that I doubt if any one,
even In this learned assembly, is not
satisfied that he did. But in spirit he
was there, through good and evil
estate. His was the brain that planned,
the persistence that carried out, the
courage that would never relinquish
the design, and the promised land
Virginia is in history, although he
only gazed at it from the fringes OF
the cloud"

An elopement occurred recently at
Morristown, N, j. The details of the
affair were interesting, but they are
not to be compared with the manner
in which the Morristown correspond
ent for the New York World described
the affair. Instead of writing g. drv
report OF the elopement, this corre-
spondent took his pen in hand and
finally sent over the wires this graphic
description: "Susie Hubert, young
and fair, with hazel eyes and golden
hair, rosebud mouth and dimpled
cheek, her whole appearance sweet
and meek, has left the town with
young Frank Dey, youth of aspira-
tions high, but barely old enough to
wed; so village gossips all have said
She's sweet sixteen, he twenty-one,
and now their lodging pa and gun;
ior yester night they ran away, riding
on the dapple gray. A church affair
was in full swing, and Frank said, Its
the very thing; we'll shake the town
this very night, and give the old folk
quite fright So off they went upon
the nag which papa used with plough
and drag, and that's the reason he's so
mad-it's knocked him out of farm
work bad. Susie's grandmamma says
she'll all forgive if they'll return and
with her live. She's sent that word
to all near by, but up to date has no
reply from either Sue or Mr.. Dey."

The MercifuI Woman.
She had a tender, loving heart
That often throbbed with woe

luhl OllSll tuIOppCu WIN WUC
Because of cruel treatment men
Forced brutes to undergo.
And on her fair expanse of brow
Were lines of deepest care
Because men shot in wanton sport
The birds that fly the air.
AT last determined she to write
A tender, strong address,
And have it printed-with slug heads
In all the public press.
She wrote in strong yettender vein,
She covered sheets score,
Then took it to the editor
And this is what she wore:
A robin redbreast on her hat,
A mink's skin round her throat;
A mother seal gave up her life
To make my lady's coat.
Two otter tails of silken sheen
Adorned each beaver cuff,
-Four muskrats yielded up their lives
That she might have muf.
She drove span of speedy nags
WAose foafs had just befn CLIPPED,
And which, hard hit by frosty winds,
In anguish pranced and skipped.
And while she to the editor
Just talked, and talked, and talked,
Tile stirring eoaeAmaa held f7OO steeds
Whose tails lad just been doekea.

The Republics Influence.

The Republic for the past two or
three years has posed as the great
goody-goody organ OF the holier-than-
thou pharisees. The Repubhc claims
to be a Democ ratio sheet, but insists
that it is much better than its party.
Grover Cleveland once made like
CAIN and we all know what happened
to Grover. The Republic is like Grover
in at least one other respect:
1t is q dead 'un. It's influence
amounts to absolutely nothing. In
1900 it waged bitter and unholy fight
on James j. Butler, Democratic can
didate for Congress in the Twelfth
Missouri district. Mr.. Butler won out
by majority of $500.
Two years later the Republic re-
newed its fight on Congressman Butler.
1t hesitated at no petty villainy in it's
effort to compass his defeat. Mr..
Butler won out by doubled majority.
In this election the Republic selected
Judges Tally and Zachritz as the two
Republican candidates especially call
ing for condemnation. 1t ransacked
the dictionaries for derogatory adjec-
tives to hurl at these two gentlemen.
1t was probably due as much to the
Republics opposition as to any other
cause that Messrs. Tally and Zachrit2
ran 10000 votes ahead of the balance
of their ticket,
In the campaign which terminated
on Tuesday last the Republic openly
bolted the Democratic ticket for the
House of Delegates. 1t supported
Clarence T. Case IN the fourth ward,
and Mr.. Case succeeded in polling 164
votes, while the Democrat so scath.
ingly condemned by the Republic, Mr.
Kinney, came up smiling 1922 strong.
The Republic supported Henry G,
Neun, Republican, in the sixth ward,
and Mr.. Zimmerman, Democrat, put
it all over him by to / vote.
1t would take too much space to
enumerate the candidates supported
by the Republic who went down tc
ignominious defeat at the hands o1
Democrats who were bolted by the
alleged party organ. Mr.. Beerman
with sickly 452, Mr.. Masserang with
S07 and Mr.. Felker with 5S8 votes will
suffice to show that the Republic il
without friends and without influence.
The Republic lent loyal support tc
only one Democratic candidate for the
House of Delegates. This was A. 4
Terry in the twenty-eigth ward. Mr.
Terry is splendid gentleman ana hai
he been blessed with the Repablic'I
opposition he would have won easily
But despite the great Democratic tida
wave, Mr.. Terry could not overcome
the awful hoodoo OF the Republics sup
port. He was defeated by about 30(
votes.
| The World will promise Mr. Terr.
that II he will make the race two years
! hence and will persuade the Republic
