Winter RalIroadIna.

The northern part of the state had
considerable trouble last week with
heavy snowfalls and ice, which on the
Missisquoi division of the Central Yer
mont completely blocked the tracks.
The ice was about three-quarters of an
inch thick and removed with difficulty.
A snowplow started out from st. Al
bans and near Riehford ran into a
snowbank from which it had to be
shoveled out. 1t was stalled again at
East Berkshire.
The passengers on the Burlington e.
Lamoille road had hard time Feb. s
trying to reach their destinations.
The train left Essex Junction about s
in the morning and at Essex Center
encountered snowdrift that etfectu-
ally stopped all further progress in
that direction. Attempts were made
to 90 on until the boiler OF the engine
was nearly empty, then the train re-
turned TO the Junction.
The same morning, when a train for
Rouses Point was approaching Swan
ton, near the water tank the engine
struck a place where water had over
flowed and frozen on the track. The
engine left the track and was followed
by the tender. The train was stopped
before any of the cars could follow.
The trolley road was also out OF bust
ness at the Swanton end of the line.

ACCIDENTS

The three-year-old son of Richard
Wartman of Dandy was terribly scald-
ed Feb. 10. Mrs. Wartman was going
from the kitchen stove to the pantry
with dish OF boiling lard when the
little fellow ran against her, causing
her to spill the hot lard upon his head,
and the lard ran down his chest and
back. The Mortified mother tore the
clothes from the little ones body but
not until the boiling lard had cooked
the flesh TO the bone in several places.
Thomas Miller, veteran horseman
OF Brattleboro, widely known in
southern Vermont, was attacked in a
stall at his stables Feb. IL by a stall
lion. The horse seized one hand and
to free himself Miller was forced to
climb into the manger and choke the
animal. He then fell backward
through window and was found I'M
conscious in the snow outside. His
wrist was disjointed, the bones pro-
truding from the flesh, and his hand
and wrist were badly crushed.
The wind Feb. s was something
terrible and did considerable damage
through Stamford and in Clarksburg.
In Stamford it broke off part of the
big chimney or smoke stack at the
chemical works and considerably
weakened it in other ways. Simeon
Crosier had quite an experience with
the wind. He had started for his
mothers with horse and sleigh and
was driving across lot that leads into
the highway when the wind blew the
horse out of the road and completely
overturned the cutter, throwing the
occupant several feet away. He chung
to the reins however, although the
horse ran, and was terribly shaken
and bruised. In Clarksburg the wind
blew in one side of barn on the farm
owned by "Chub" Ives OF North
Adams.

THE PLANET MARS.
What We Know About It's Physical
and Climatic Conditions.

What We Know About Its Physical
and Climatic Conditions.
We can draw all the geographical
cOnfgurations, seas, coasts, islands,
peninsulas, mouths Of rivers or canals
Of Mars with accuracy. and we can an
ticipate what district will appear in
the lens of the telescope, for the length
Of the rotation of the planet is known
to the hundredth part of a second. As
the planet turns upon its axis more
slowly than ours, the calendar OF the
inhabitants OF Mars is composed Of
two consecutive years Of 66s days and
a bisextlle one of 669 days.
1t is not many years since Mars en-
tered into the sphere Of our observa-
ton. And one can also say that there
is but a small number of the inhabit-
ants Of this world who have observed
it in all its details, and OF these the
most experienced is Signor Schiaparel-
Ii, director of the observatory at Milan.
The geographical map OF the planet
Mars has Just been made with infinite
care by the above mentioned astrono-
mer. One might really consider it
terrestrial sphere OF continents, islands,
coasts, peninsulas, CULTS, waters. More
over, clouds, rains, inundatiOns, SHOWS,
seasons, winters and summers, springs
and autumns prevail as they do here,
and the intensity of the seasons is alb
solutely the same as with us, the in
cllnation Of the axis being the same as
ours.
Our problem of the habitabillty of the
stars is limited to observing the celes-
tial bodies upon which the conditions
are such that organized matter can ex-
ist I'm a durable form.
In the planet Mars the density Of
cubic meter of water earth or any
matter is only the seventeenth OF what
1t is here, and the weight is only
thirty-elght one-hundredths. A kilo-
gram transported TO Mars would
therefore only weigh 376 grams
there and a man or woman weigh
ing seventy kilos would only weigh
twenty-six there. The years are
nearly twice as long as upon our
planet, and the climatological condi-
tions seem much more favorable than
they are here.
The conditions necessary TO life are,
we know, mutiform, as the structure
of the organic matter is so complicated.

Magazine.

rhe aplnrue Of women.r

When tie war between Japan and
Russia broke out the japanese govern
ment did not desire the assistance OF
foreign nurses.
A certain number of American nurses
went to Japan. They were received
with courtesy and compliments by the
polite officials at Tokyo. But the New
York Medical Record says that "the
medical department Of the Japanese
army has been frightfully embarrassed
by their attentions" 1t declares that
their ignorance Of the japanese Ian
guage and their inability to eat Jap
anese food or to live in japanese style
have proved an almost complete bar to
their usefulness.
The London Hospital unfeelingly re
marks, Nurses should show more dis
cipllne when wars occur, or they may
come TO be classed with the plague of
women type"

MR.. ELwooD's REMEDY.

ATE HAVE always contcnded that
w the clergy must concern them
selves with open and fragrant immoral
ity. whether that concerns individual
crimes or crimes against the state Be
cause crime happens to be political Il
is no less demoralizlng and deplorable.
II has been a source OF surprise to us
that our spiritual leaders have been so
blind or so indifferent while the de-
bauchery Of the Delaware electorate
has been so open and fragrant
But we have no sympathy whatever
with any attempt TO cure these evils
By greater evils by substituting viol-
ence and anarchy for peaceful methods,
even though they are tainted, and by
replacing the ballot. which is peaceful
though solled, with shot guns.
According to newspaper reports the
Rev. Robert A. Elwood is a reformer Of
the shot gun order. once upon a time
his remedy for crime was Of different
order. Now he dwells for some time on
the evils Of bribery in this state palnt-
ing a condition such as undoubtedly ex-
lists. and then finds remedy in
violence. His topic was: "Oh. HE'LL
and after reading the report Of the
sermon we are inclined to think It ap-
plies more forcefully to his conclusion.
than to the evils wsich he depicts.
This matter of purer elections Is
matter OF conscience, and you can
improve the public conscience witt
shot guns. Colorado has tried It, AM
her example should be a warning T.
other States But Mr. Elwood and al
other preachers, may find field 70
their talents in appealing to our peopl
to rectify the evils within the forms o
law and order.
The public conscience must b,
aroused. and this can express itself ii
remedial legislation and in the strlc
enforcement Of the laws. That remed,
is after ALL the only real remedy. Al
the laws that can be placed on tn
statute books are mere waste paper
without a sentiment behind them; an,
If they are right It is the duty OF thr
clergy as well as Of other people. L
cultivate that sentiment. But violenc
simply creates violence; dsorde
breeds disorder, and were Mr.. Elwoo
to march 10 the polls with shot GU
he would be locked up and the brlber,
