One OF the pleasing things about
the Greigs is that all the members
ale strong supporters of Mitchell for
the capital and they have adopted a
unique badge with which to show
their preference. Ii is a small red
stocking on which is printed the
words: sMitchell for the Capital"
and at each entertainment and OH the

badge. They Will also have solne for
souvenirs that will be sold at the

in Mitchell turn out and give the
Greigs a royal welcome when they
come to this city.

The ST. Louis Exposition still
Holding Interest.

November-a Delie htful Month in the City.
About one month remains for the con-
tinuance of the great Exposition at st.
Louis. This most marvellous of EXPOSE
tions has far exceeded in grandeur and
magnitude the brightest hopes of its pro-
jectors; and the exhibits have been de-
scribed by visitors as the most magnifi-
cent and varied ever presented. The
''Pike" with its thousand and one differ
ent amusement features, is reported as
being a "World's Fair" in itself: while
the view of the vast buildings, with their
various phases of domestic and foreign
architecture, is alone sufficient to satisfy
the traveller whose taste for the artistic
carries him hither.
Each state with its building housing its
own displays and the interesting products
of foreign countries are both entertaining
and instructive. 1t has been the idea of
the management to present everything in
the line of reproductions with as much
faith and as close to the original-even to
the native surroundings, manners and
scenery-as possible, and how well they
have succeeded may be judged from the
Oriental exhibits on the Pike and the
wonderful PHILIPPINE exhibit.
The hotel rates at st. Louis are very
reasonable. The courts and the city
government have carefully protected the
visitors against exorbitant rates in cab
service, etc, so that violation is seldom
heard Of and once reported will be sum-
lnarilv dealt with. The weather condi-
tons during this season of the year at st.
Louis are perfect; the beautiful Indian
summer usually lasts throughout the en-
tire month of November.
Everything points to a large attendance
at this last and greatest of all expositions
during the remaining month, and pros
pective visitors from Boston and New
England are respectfully referred to the
General Passenger Department of the
Boston and Maine Railroad, Boston, for
information concerning the Exposition.
This road publishes beautiful illustrated
booklet describing the Exposition. This
book will be mailed free upon receipt of
address.

The reports of the slaughter of deer in
Vermont during the open season of ten
days which has just closed, show I'M
mistakably that these animals are not so
plenty as was the case year ago when
1853 were killed legally in the open sea-
son.
During the season past, many does
have been reported in almost every
section of the state where deer abound
but the scarcity of buck deer has been
noticeable, and this scarcity of male deer
means the ultimate extinction of deer in
the state.
The legislature has acted wisely and
well in imposing this minor restriction
of SO upon nonresident hunters and
even had the fee been placed at S25, no
hardship would have been imposed upon
those outside of the state who might
wish to hunt deer in Vermont. For
by no means slowly, but certainly,
deer are becoming scarcer in Ner-
mont and it behooves the legislature tC
take still further steps to protect these
animals. Even an open season of but
five days, we believe, may eventually
have to be succeeded by absolute pro
hibitiOn for a term of years if we do not
wish this class of game to become eX
tinct in this state.

Granting all honor to that grand old
statesman and sturdy Vermonter, Justin
Morrill,, that belongs to him, and rec
ognizing him as the father of the system
of agricultural colleges that is at present
in operation in this country, we hardly
feel like endorsing the action of the
legislature in perpetuating his memory
in the manner it proposes-by the cree
ton of a 100000 memorial hall as an
addition to the plant of the University of
Vermont.
The agricultural colleges identity has
been lost sight of in the greater glory of
it's sister institution. the University of
Vermont, and the annual governmental
appropriation of over 500, 900, which by
act of Congress is supposed to be devoted
to the specific work of instructing stud
ents in theoretical and practical agri-
culture, finds its way into the disburse-
ments necessary to maintain the Uni
versity.
Now the farmers are by no means
legislating for their interests when they
propose to erect such building as they
have appropriated $50, 900 for. The poll
ticians have successfully lobbied a
scheme through the channels of legis-
lation relying upon the farmers of the
General Assembly, and associating their
scheme with the name and memory of
the late Senator Morrill,. At its incep.
ton the scheme stood for class legisla-
ton but the class to be benefited was not
so much the farmer as the promoters
talked. The agriculturists have been

CURSE TO THE W0RKINGMEN
Argument Made That Lawless-

That Sacred Day Is
Disregarded.

New York, April S.--Pleas for
more general observance Of the Sab
bath as a day of rest for laboring
men have been made at church SER
vices in Mendelsshon hall. The
principal speaker, DR.. William r.
Huntington Of Grace church, de-
clared that with the growing dis
regard for the Sabbath there is
fostered great dagger of lawless-
ness which spreads like wildfre.
"We are ceasing, :" he said, to
be the law-abiding citizens we for
merly were. To the American
people it is not a question Of how
one shall observe the day. The
question is how we shall save the
institution.
"There are two bonds holding to-
gether the Christians of the world
the holy bible and the Sabbath
day. IL one wants TO preserve and
keep these bonds we must keep the
Sabbath as a reminder Of Almighty
God.
"a day Of rest is good for the
workmen. Over 80 per cent Of the
railroad men west Of the Missis-
sippi do not have one. It seems
as il it were safer for life and limb
to be a murderer than to be brake
