Mr.. Sherburne was born in Orange in
1921 and took his first pastorate in West
Brattleboro. He was an active itinerant
minister in the Vermont circuit for 81
years Since he became too old to take

Cabot, May flames Rogers,
a young man Of q years, assist
ant postmaster at Cabot, was
bound over to tie federal grand
jury this forenoon by Commits
sioner O'Hair on the charge of
.rilling registered letters, and the
case was sent at once to the jury,
a special grand jury having been
empaneled this forenoon to inves-
tigate the robbery of the postoifice
at English and such othei bust
ness as might come before them,
The case is peculiar in some re-
spects. For some time the authori-
ties had been suspecJing that
| something was wrong at the Office,
AMI were there yesterday morn
ing investigating, The two in
spectors who were working on the
case were e. 0. Glenn and E. p.
Craig. During the forenoon
| Rogers rifIed a registered letter
addressed to a Chicago house,
Soon afterward the inspectors
appeared on the scene and Rogers
swallowed the &5 bill. AT first he
denied all knowledge Of the mat
ter, but when pressed for a con-
fession he acknowledged that he
had stolen the money and had
swallowed it. Undaunted by this
unusual gastromic feat, the in
spectors secured some emeteic
from a drug store and gave it to
the young man. Now they have

having been in Rogers stomach
for an hour. He was brought in
yesterday afternoon and lodged
in Jail. He is a single man, and
has been in the postoiiice for

Hip Pocket legislation.

The supreme court Of Tennessee
has declared that "the hip pocket
should be prohibited by law, and
il should be made a felony for a
tailor to put one in a mans wear
ing apparel" This declaration
will not receive the endorsement
of the men Of the West, the South
west and the South.
The hip pocket is an established
institution. Many deem it a nec-
essary part Of every welI-regu-
lated pair Of trousers. There are
men who would think that without
it they we're not dressed. Any
attempt to Iegislata it out Of office
would be met with bitter opposi-
ton, and brave indeed would be
the congressional candidate who
would go before his constituency
on the platform, mo hip pock-
cts"
1t is presumed thatin Tennessee
as in other sections Of the South
or West or Southwest the presence
and uses Of the. hip pocket are
well known. Therefore, if, per-
chance, a man in anger simply
reaches back for his handkerchief
and the other,fires is not a'case
for the courts. although it may
be one for the Coroner. Death
resulted through a misunder-
standing. 1t is reasonable to sup
pose that the man intended to
''pull" a "gun" and the other
did not understand that the hand
kerchief was carried in his hip
pocket.
What is wanted is a law against
carrying in the hip pocket any
thing except a gun" Then
there can be no misunderstand-
ings.
If the Tennessee Supreme Court
thinks that the hip pocket is alone
responsible for men carrying con-
cealed weapons and5theraby vio-
lating a law, it should remember
that every 'gun fighter carries
his gun in either'hia breast pocket
or outside coat pocket, in the
former place it is easy to "draw"
and in the latter 1t can be fired
through the pocket,-Rapublic.

Lice on Fowls.

Some persons suppose that
lice are only found on fowls du-
ring the warm weather.
Lice may he found on the bodies
Of fowls at all seasons of the year.
While lice multiply very rapidly
in summer they also mul,i3Iy
. some during the cold period Of the
year. The little red mites are
more prevalent in su inner, eE-
.istiug mostly in the poultry house,
and are not difficult 10 eradicate.
The real enemies are the lice
which do not leave the body Of
. the fowls, some kinds working in
/ the feathers. Examination OF the
. head, under the wings, along the
/ backs and around the vents will
nearly always disclose their pres
ience, Remedies are not difficult
to ind. A thorough drencaing
Of the poultry house with
/ kerosene emulsion, to which a lit
tie crude carboic acid has been
added, will prove very effeotuaI
against the red mites and other
inruders OF the poultry house if
done every week. while even Or
7 dinary melted lard is effoctual in
destroying lice on the bodies,
though linsced oil, applied with a
sewing machine oil can, is
perhaps better. These remedies
are mentioned because they are
ajmple. The advertised lice kill
er5 are also excellent. No kind
of oil or grease should be used
/ too freely on the bodies Of fowls
or chicks. The difficulty is that
I farmers and poultrymen as rule
Go not employ any remedy at all
until lice have gotten the mastery
Of the fowls and the flock is being
thinned out by death. Young
turkeys and young chicks quickly
succumo to lice, for as soon as
the chicks are hatched the
lice leave the danes and in
fest the young ones. The dust
bath, cleanliness in the poultry
house, examination Of the fowls
once a week and prompt work as
soon as evidence Of lice appears
will save not only the young
birds, but also increase the num-
Der CT eggs, as well as promote
thrift in the flock, The best rem
ody is prompt attention and no
delay in preventing lice from
getting a foothold.-Ex.
