Gentlemen, ye dinna use your fax

Scotch professor, addressing his class
Here he pushed forward gallipot con-
tanning a chemical compound Of ex-
ceedingly offensive smell.
"When l was a student" he contin-
ued, II used my sense Of taste, sac"
And with that he dipped his finger into
the gallipot and put his finger into his
mouth. "Taste it, gentlemen; taste it,"
said the professor, "and exercise your
perceptive fatalities"
The gallipot was pushed toward the
reluctant class. One by one the stu
dents resolutely dipped a finger into
the abominable concoction and with
many wry face sucked the abomina-
ton from their fingers.
Gentlemen, gentlemen" said the pro-
fessor, II must repeat that ye dinna
use your fatalities Of obsairvation, fol-
if We had looked mair closely at what

Post Office Robbed.

The police and sheriff departments of
Washington county are attempting to
locate the burglars who broke into the
Marsh6eld post office at one o'clock
Monday morning, wrecking the safe
with dynamite, and fled after a running
fight with A. T. Davis. the postmaster.
The post office in this village is located
in Knights of Pythias block and Post
master Davis lives directly opposite the
street. About one O'Clock he and his wife
were awakened by an explosion at the
post office. Selling his revolver Mr..
Davis rushed to window and saw two
men leaving the post office on the run.
He emptied the contents OF his revolver
at the fleeing men, one of whom returned
the fire. Mr.. Davis was not injured and
as the fog was dense, it is probable he
did not hit the burglars.
Mr.. Davis rang the fire alarm and
communication was soon had with
Sheriff Tracy and his deputies in that
locality. Sheriff Tracy lett the Jail at
Montpelier in an automobile and made a
record breaking run to the scene of the
burglary. He soon had half dozen
deputies with him, but their search has
been of no avail. All trains at Mont
pelier and on the line OF the Montpelier
& Wells River railroad have been watch
ed and the search will be continued.
The job was evidently the work of pro-
fessionals. With a chisel and wrench
stolen from the Montpelier & Wells River
railroad the front door of the post Office
was forced, and that under the full glare
OF an electric light. The force OF the ex-
plosion tore the safe door off and wreck
ed part OF the lock boxes. No trace OF
a team could be found and it is evident
the men took to the woods. The amount
taken in money and stamps was less
than $50,
