Coincidental similarity is remarkable
in the two musical farceS that are in
trodueed this week IN Broadway. Their
names The. Tenderfoot and The
Yankee Consul" are alike in indicat-
ing that they have been made in Amer
lea and that thsir principal comic char
aetePs are Americans. Moreover, they
are both Spanish IN environment, one
getting it in New Mexico and enc IA
San Domingo. Furthermore. Richard
earle and Raymond Hitchcock, their
leaders. were for many years familiar
as comedians Of minor value till sud-
denly they bounded 10 the top grade in
foolisilness. Hitchcock did that last
year in king Dodo." earle has done
it IN The Tenderf0ot." the piece Of his
own writing, which was taken through
the country before IL was brought into
New York. Those points struck me
forcibly when i saw the latest two sorg
and dance shows on the same day. The
resemblanees seemed like plagiarism

Republican Rally in Mortified.

On Tuesday evening n large audience
assembled in Sons of Veterans hall to lis
ten to the campaign speakers, and rarely
is any town favored with so fine speeches
as were heard on this occasion. Hon.
Frederick II. Gillett Congressman from
the I'd congressional district. was the first
speaker. He made a dspassionate and
logical address OF 10 minutes on the is
sues of the presidential campaign. He
gave a comparative history of the Re-
publican and Democratic administrations
before and since the Cleveland admins
tration. He also spoke of the various
Democratic platforms. comparing them
with the Republican ones and closed with
an eloquent description of Roosevelt as a
man and as a President. Rev. George F.
Pentecost was the next speaker and for
another 40 minutes he held the closest at
tention of the audience, basing his argu-
ment on three things: the parties, the
platforms. and the candidates. BY logical
argument and by telling illustrations he
showed that the safety of the country
depended upon a Republican victory in
the coming election. col Charles l..
Young of Springfield closed the speaking,
giving short bright talk upon the issues
Of the day.

Pullman Sleeping Car to ST. Louis With
out Change.
To accommodate the largely increas ed
travel from Vermont TO the Worlds Fair
at st. Louis that has been so apparent
during October. the Central Vermont
Railway company have put on a special
weekly Pullman tourist sleeping car. The
sleeper is attached TO the train leav-
ing White River Junction at 427 p. m.
Thursdays and reaches st. Louis at 743
Saturday morning. running via Central
Vermont Railway, Grand Trunk Railway
system and Illinois Central railroad.
The fact that this sleeper is filed with
visitors to the Worlds Fair every week
shows that the public is quick to recog-
nize this service as especially desirable.
1t only costs a nominal sum, (s3.25) for
double berth accommodating two persons.
which, added to the low passage rate OF
s24.OO for the round trip. does not make
a very expensive trip. considering you
are taken into Pullman at White River
Junction and landed into the city of St.
Louis without change of cars. Those de-
string to stop over at any point in Cana
da or at Niagara Falls, Detroit. Port HUI
ron or Chicago. may do so without extra
