Tt has been pleasure to us to do our duty, to notify you of your nomination This has been 6 pleasure notwithstanding the fact that you had already been In a manner notified by Hon. Eihu Root. who while pretendedly notifying Senator Fair banks, could not get his mind off n you as the darkies say, and whose speech con- sisted principally in saying: Go to- thou art an old man. and in bemoaning the fact that you might possibly die before you got to be president.

 In further comment upon Hon. Elihu Roots notification of your nomination, I will hazard the remark, In reply to one of exceeding good taste on hs part, that 1t is better to run the risk of mourning as in due course of the flesh we all must, physical inability for any possible task in life, which consists of taking ourselves too seriorsly and nobody else with re- spect or reverence.
 "In real conclusion, MT.

Says President Fails to Deny
That Trusts

Denies Absolutely That Any Trust Mon
ey Has Gone Into the Treasury
Of the Democratic National
Committee.

New York, Nov Judge Parker, in
a speech made at q reception given to
him by the Kings county Democratic
club in Brooklyn tonight, asserted that
the issue whether the trusts can pur
chase the election" has not been met
by President Roosevelt in his reply to
Judge Parker's speech made ~ days
ago.
After stating what his position had
been in that speech, Judge Parker said
tonight that be had made no criticism
Of the President, but that he had simply
called attention TO notorious and Of
fensive situation
The assertion was made By Judge
Parker that the contributions he
charged Chairman Cortelyou had re-
ceived from the trusts are not denied
by the Presidents statement The DEM
ocratic candidate followed this declara
ton with a statement directed to the
President personally, to the effect that
he parker had issued request that
no money for campaign purposes should
be received, directly or Indirectly, from
my trust; that he would rather be de-
feated than be fettered in an effort to
accomplish reforms that are sorely need
ed. He charged the President with re-

RICKERT & WELLS, OUR
LOCAL DRUGGISTS,
Say That the Wonderful Popularity
Of YinOl is Due TO Intrinsic
Merit.

q The intrinsic merit Of this new cod
liver oil preparation, Vinol,n said Mr..
Wells, of the firm of Rickert & Wells,
- Is beginning to be realized by the people
Of Barre. OF course in my position as a
druggist | have seen innumerable medi-
cines and proprietary articles introduced,
but never In my long experience have |
ever known or heard Of medicine that
would produce more beneficial results than
Vinol.
II attribute this to the fact that Vinoi
contains in q concentrated form all the
medicinal elements contained In cod liver
oil, actually taken from fresh Gods Ilvers,
but without a drop Of oil or grease TO
nauseate and upset the stomach, and II
contains no siekenlng drugs.
g A prominent physician writes: 'Yinol
Is the most valuable preparation OF cod
liver oil known to medicine II is Of I'M
told value to create strength aud build up
the general system for old people, weak
women and children, and II has no equal
for hard colds, bronchial and all lung
affections.
q In cases where cod liver oil emulsions
and other tonics fail, Vin0l viii heal,
strengthen and cure.
There are hundreds Of people right
here In Barre who can testify that there
Ia nothing equal to Vinol TO make rich,
red blood, TO increase the appetite, cure
stomach troubles, give strength and re-
newed vitality TO the aged, build up the
rundown, tired and debllitated, make the
weak strong, cure chronic coughs, colds
and build up the conyalescent.
We freely offer to return your money
la every case where Vinol fails. Try it
on this guarantee. Rickort 4 Wells,

Saturdays Games Ended in
a Tie.
POOR ON DEFENSIVE
But the Crimson Was ut-Rushed and
out-Punted by the Husky Hanover
ans, Who Played Straight Football
All Way Through.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 9. Dartmouth
failed to make good her boast that she
would score on Harvard while the lat
ter was not strong enough to cross her
Opponents goal line, 50 tie resulted,
which WAS an unsatisfactory ending Of
the game played in the Stadium yes.
terday afternoon before some $4,000
spectators. 1t was a remarkably clean
game Of football, entirely free from any
Objectionable features. There was very
little kicking in the game and for the
most part it was a steady grind of short
gain rushes, in which department both
teams were able to make consistent gains
in thier own territory, but when it came
to a critical moment did not have
strength to press the attack for a score
when in opponents ground. Dartmouth
won the toss and on receiving the kick
off began a rushing game that swept
all before it and it looked as If the Han
oyerians would surely score.
They began the rushing on their own
|25-yard line and never lost possession
Iof the ball until they reached Harvard's
"a yard line, where the crimson line stiff
ened up and Dartmouth was forced to
give up the bah on downs. On this
charge Dartmouth rushed the bal 81
yeards. The moment Harvard was in
possession she, in turn, began to rip up
holes in Dartmouth's line and rushed
1.-THE ball for 65 yards to Dartmouth's
10-yard line, when the leather was lost
on downs. This was the nearest either
team came to scoring in the first half
or in the entire game, for that matter
During the remainder Of the first half
the play was in the middle Of the field
with no great advantage either way
The most sensational play in the game
happened in the frsst half when Vaughn
broke through the Harvard line on a
run. He had two interfercrs
with him and no one in front of him
but little Starr, the Harvard freshman
Quarterback. It did not seem possible
that Starr could get to the man with
The ball. but he made one Of the great
est tackles ever seen on a college grid
iron When he saw his opponents COM
ing through he quickly moved up to-
inject the play and brushing aside the
mighty Gilman, who weighs 235 pounds,
the agile crimson quarterback made a
diving tackle and nailed Vaughan on
Harvard's 49-yard line.
This grand tackle undoubtedly saved
Harvard from being scored upon and a
sigh Of relief went up from the Harvard
stand when Starr brought his man down.
At the very end Of the first half Dart,
mouth tried a goal from the field, just
after the whistle blew. Many people
thought goal had been kicked, but
las matter Of fact the ball went out
by several yards, and even if the ball
had gone true, the goal would not have
counted. In the second half it was a
standoif pure and simple and neither
side had any kind of i chance to score.
