a Trick With Dice.

You can mystify your friends by
telling the numbers on a pair of dice
without seeipg them: Ask some one
to throw the dice without your see
Ing them, and tell the person to
choose one of the numbers and multi
ply it by two, add FIVE and multiply
this by five, adding the remaining
number on the other dice. When the
person tells you the result subtract
mentally twenty-five from the number
he has obtained, and the remainder
will be two figures representing the
two numbers ON the dice. Hers is the
way II is done: Suppose the mum
bers thrown to be six and three. Siy
multiplied by two would be twelve
five added make seventeen. multiply
by five is eighty-five. with three
added make eighty-three; from this
subtract twenty-five, and 1t gives as o
result sixty-three-a'x, three being
the numbers thrown.
This can be worked with the same
result if the person throwing the dice
multiplies the three instead of the
six, the result in that case being
thirty-six instead of sixty-three.

Resisting Power.

If severe sickness, the first thing that he
estimates i the resisting power of the
patient. The chances for his recovery are

You see that it is not 50 much the

Nellspring. There are some persons liv-
ing lives 50 upright so spiritually healthy,
that they are practically immune from
temptation. And when they are over

their power OF resistance Is great On the
other hard. there are those vino after sue
cumbing to one temptation are completely
swept away by the power OF evil. How eau
that be accounted for? Obviously in the
same way that the ability to resist physi-
cal disease is to be explained There has
been unwholesome moral living: the mind
has been permitted to become familiar with
evi! thoughts; the soul has breathed in
miasml and corruption, until one has no
.bility to put away temptation.
All this suggests the need OF resisting
power both against disease and against sin.
A pure, clean. wholesome life, physical
and moral. will make one secure against
ny harm that either can do.

WIS NOT ROBBED.

A. Tomasi who came from st. AL
bans on Wednesday to investigate the
story of the robbery of his brother, D.
Tomasi of this city, in New York, says
he has discovered evidence to disprove
the story. He found that the man
who was said to have brought the
story from New York is r. Marchesi
of South Barre, and Mr.. Tomasi told
a Journal reporter Thursday that Mr..
Marchesi denies the truth of the story
He said that Marchesi, who with his
wife was returning from Italy, saw
his brother in New York but did not
know that he had been robbed and
that his face did not show signs of a
fight as was reported He says furth-
er that Marchesi heard of robbery
in New York but did not know who
was concerned in it. This is directly
opposed to the story Marchesi is re-
ported to have told in this city and
Mr.. Tomasi is satisfied that it is the
true version.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inf1amed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous services.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

HIS DYING WISH.

The city council on last week We'd
nesday instructed Chairman Haley of
the committee ON charities and correc-
tions to expend the sum of SO in pur-
chasing one grave lot in Green Mount
cemetery as burial place for the body
of DR.. H. A. Stewart, the aged city
charge who died last winter, and in
so doing the old gentlemans dying
request was complied with. DR.. Stew
art had seen better days but shifting
fortunes compelled him to resort to
the city for aid during the last few
months of his life. When the end was
approaching the unfortunate man
asked Mr. Wheeler, who was then
overseer of the poor, to make prom
Use that his body be not buried in the
potters' field. Mr., Wheeler made the
promise and has not forgotten it and
it was through his efforts that the
matter came before the council, and
to the credit of that body it may be
said that not one of the members made
the slightest objection to spending So
of the city's money in Difference to
the last wish of the aged man even
though he was pauper.

COURT OF CLAIMS

The court of claims took final adj
journment for it's January term Friday
forenoon, after rendering several de-
cisions in matters before it.
The claim of Washington county for
$544 for water rents paid for the court
house and Jail was allowed, to the eX
tent of 1892 and disallowed for the re-
mainder. This bill extended over six
years and was presented by Clerk
Smile on behalf of the county.
Q. M. Robbins, of Hancock, was al
lowed S12 for bounty on a bear of
which the evidence showed some one
had stolen the ears necessary to get
the cash on from the town clerk.

lowed $13. 05 for services IN securing
the arrest of horse thief over the
New York line and bringing him back.

cree in the case of LETTERS v. Hazen,

Yiles, 1852. 50 for lighting Washing
ton county Jail from February 1 to

But if the worst has already come to the
worst, and the pain in the side, low down,
shows it, even then the remedy is Cal-cura

Mr.. George II. Owen, Of Hardenburgh, N. Y, was

have operation for appendicitis performed but
he heard OF Cal-cura Solvent, DR.. Kennedy's new

THE SEMINARY TEAM.

A resolution adopted by the Seminary
Athletic Association last fall may re-
suit in the disbanding of the present
base ball team which is regarded as the
best that the Seminary has had for
many years. The resolution provided
that to be q member of the athletic
teams student must take at least
twelve sections each week and main
tain percentage of seventy in each
of his studies. Two leading players
on the ball team have fallen below
these requirements and at present are
suspended from the team and will not
be allowed to play until they come up
to the requirements. If the suspen-
sion of these two is made permanent,
at least one other member of the team
will withdraw and as the three are
among the strongest players, the team
would be greatly weakened and in all
probability the schedule of games will
be cancelled The boys are making
an attempt to come up to the standard
this week in order that the Seminary
may send it's strongest team to Bur-
lington and ST. Adams next week.
Two members of the second team are
also temporarily suspended from play
ing for the same reason.
Inc question OF requiring members
of the athletic teams to maintain a
fair standard of scholarship has been
the subject Of much agitation in col
leges and preparatory schools during
the past few years, and in making
this rule the Seminary is in line with
many similar institutions throughout
New England. 1t is sincerely to be
hoped that the trouble will be adjust
ed, for the management has expended
much effort in bringing together al
aggregation of strong ball players
this year, and it will be unfortunate
indeed if the seasons sport is nipped
in the bud.

vanced by the plaintiff at order of de-
PENDANT in the purchase of 100 shares

if and G. A. Davis for the defendant.

PENDANT. The suit is one on Vermont
ObduupCo iOi % iOiiO1p Va Wv,
the plaintiff claiming the defendant
let his ram run loose with only one
letter E., to identify him, while the
statutes say the owners initials must
be plainly marked on ram running
at large. There is also question of a
non suit in the case.
On Friday afternoon the Caledonia
county case of Robert j. Mcdowell,
VS.. Thomas McDoWell's Est, appeal
from probate, was argued by Alexan-
der Dunnette for the appellant and
V. A. Bullard for the estate.
The Rutland county case to State VS..
Andrew Rosenthal, for violation of a

nance in question.
The other Rutland county cases, -FOUR
in number, are not to be tried at this
term of court.
