1t Was a Success.

Last Wednesday there was an excur-
sion from RayvilIe to Keokuk, la. There
were four of the Rayville boys went We
came to large railroad bridge across
the rivers at keokuk Part of that bridge
had to turn around to let tho boat pass
through. The boat landed after it
passed the bridge. BY the time the
boat put us on shore it was 4 o'clock
and only had an hour to stay in town.
The crowd went up in town to see such
d large city. The population of Keokuk
was only 10000 Street cars there as
we never saw before. The hour passed
away soon and never got to see half the
town on account Of the steamer leaving
at o'clock, and then the mate had to
90 up in town and hurry some Of them
up then part of them may have got left.
On the steamer there was beer and most
anything YOU would want. Music and
Waiting to who laid the chunk. AS the
boat was on it's way back there were
several fights between the mate and
the passengers. Two Of the passengers
pot put down III the hull Gas we call it)
One fellow got beer bottle landed up
against the side of his head. When we
got off the train here most every one
thought we were drunk, they said, be
cause we looked SO bad, which we Ger
tainyl did feel tuff But all the crowd
reports a fine time. Rayville (Mo.) En-
terprise.

Mr.. DeBoER's CENTENNIAL AID
DRESS.


a Vermonter is always a Vermont
err declared Joseph A. DeBoer in his
address at the Montpelier Centennial cell
ebration this forenoon, and therein he
gave expression to the dominating note
Of his address-the spirit Of patriotism,
yeneration for the past and calm
confidence in the future Of this little
commonwealth nestled among the green
hills. Throughout his admirable effort
Mr.. DeBoer has scattered the note Of
loyalty, not Of native son, but Of an
adopted son who has graspcd the spirit
with all the feryor and strength Of the
former. The conclusion to his address
breathes that spirit in the following
words: Vermont is better today than
ever, better Travelled, better heated, bet
ter lighted, better fed, better trasnport-
ed, Letter served with news, and has a
better market in which to trade and
to which 70 SELL" As conveying such a
note and as an epitome Of events clne-
tering about the early records Of the
state and particularly relating to the
choice Of Montpelier as the capital Of
the state, The address makes notable
contribution to Vermont historical pa
pers. 1t has, Of course, particular refer
ence to Montpeler's struggle to become
the capital Of the state, telling how the
little band Of citizens, spoor but hons
est contributed of their substance in
liberal measure for the construction of
the $4,000 structure which was the state
governments first home in Montpelier,
how that building was whitfield out
OF existence" and replaced in 1886, how
the second building, destroyed by fire
in 1857, WAS superseded by the present
State House which has been added to
as the growth Of the government de-
partments required All this, much Of
which Montpelier did ait a great sacri-
fee, has been graphically told by Mr.
DeBoer. In connection with it, it is
interesting to note the part which Barre,
Montpelier's neighbor, played in the
original movement which brought the
coveted honor to Montpelier 1t was
James Fiske of Barre who in October,
one hundred and two years ago, first

The Habit of Swearing.

Happily the gentleman who habitually
punetuates his conversation with oaths
rs less in evidence than in times past.
The very fact that many persons win
regard il as n contradiction in terms to
say that any gentleman swears, empha-
sizes this statement. But il one gets
away from a touch OF Pharisaism or does
not involve himself in the hopeless task
|of trying accurately to define q gentle
man. it win be admitted that some
gentlemen do swear a little.
And that brings one back to the first
proposition that the habit is being era
Dictated among the class of men who com
mand respect, and that although the use
Iof oaths in general intercourse still ex-
lists in Kansas City, as elsewhere. it is
becoming less common.
Such a crusade against profanity as
that heraled from New Jersey ought to
be a good thing, in any community. Pub.
nc opinion is against swearing. 1t is
no longer crank who dislikes to hear
oaths. In England it used to be quite
the thing for lords and ladies' to swear.
Excuse me, my lady, said an Earl who
had sworn at his partner m whist; Il
thought | was playing with my wife. y
Long before that eighteenth century
episode the French called all Englishmen
"Goddams,Y deriving the term from what
the Century Dictionary calls '.the char
aeteristic national oath Of the English
men,"
Now it is rare. at least, to find "a
gentleman who will swear in the presence
OF ladies' Aside from the religious in
hibition, the practise in any company is
recognized as jay and course. 4 move
ment which would carry the reform into
all Use OF language should be welcome

Wine, Water or Flowers.

To the Editor Of The Journal.
A dispatch from Newport News with
reference to the mooted question of the
use of water or wine in the christening Of
the battleship Minnesota, quotes an Off
no reason for departing from "the COM
pany's usual custom of using wine.'' And
elsewhere I think T h e J ourna l. re-
ferred to this as the usual custom among
shipbuilders. This is no doubt a general
custom, but it is being departed from in
many instances. The report of the
launching Of the schooner Governor
Powers. from the yard Of Cobb. Butler &
Co., at Rockland, Me-, says that ''she was
christened with pinks and roses by Miss
Grace B. Crowell, daughter of Captain
Peter H. Crowell, Of the firm Of Crowell &
Thurlow, managing owners" The Gov
ernor Powers Is the largest four masted
schooner af1oat, and the largest six
masted schooner ever built was chris
tened in the same way at the yards of
Captain II. M. Bean, Camden, Me-, who
Is one of the largest builders Of merchant
marine in the country, as have been 9TH
ers of Captain Beams and Cobb, But
Ter & Co.'S vessels The custom is a
beautiful one and is worthy to succeed
that of using Intoxicating liquors for the
purpose. AS to the case of the battle
ship Minnesota, the request of thousands
of citizens Of the commonwealth for
which the ship is to be christened ought
to furnish some reason" for the use OF
Minnehaha water, instead of champagne
