The high price of wool has brought out
renewed interest in sheep of the wool
breeds. AS compared with cows there
is much to be said for sheep on the part
of farmers who dislike milking and tend
ing cattle and who have trouble in get
ting the milk to market Sheep are
fatty easy to care for and the wool may
quickly be marketed for cash. AS for
the dogs, the laws of most states provide
payment for the loss that may occur
from this cause. Competent Boston
wool authorities express the opinion that
wool may be scarce and high for several
years to come. If so now is the time to
foster the fleece makers.-American Cul-

Enqineer Killed,

Insufficient ballast on the roadbed of
the West River railroad, which was re.
Gently converted from narrow to stand
ard gauge, was in part, if not wholly,
responsible for an accident which caused
the death of Engineer Almar W.
Shattuck last week Monday. A section
of the track sank under the weight of
the engine, throwing the locomotive,
tender and one freight car nearly to the
bottom of a 50-foot embankment. Shat
tuck was pinioned under the cab and SC
terribly scalded by escaping steam that
he died about three hours later at farm
house nearby. Joseph LaForrest, his
fireman, also went down the embank-
ment and was buried beneath the Goa
which fell from the tender, but miracu
lousy escaped any serious injuries. The
engine itself was not badly damaged but
lies in such a position that it will be an
extremely difficult task to get it upon
the'iron again. "

On May 8, 1900, Hon. H. H. Powers
at that time a member of Congress
from Vermont, was written to by a
gentleman in Middlebury concerning the
securing of cannon for our park. Here
is Congressman Powers reply:
"Your letter of the 18th instant re-
ceived.
~ have called at the Ordnance office
of the War Department and find it will
be possible to secure two cannons OF
mortars and limited number of pro.
iectiles for your park in Middlebury.
I'm order to obtain these it will be
necessary for you to address request
to the Secretary of War, signed by the
President of the Village, and forward
the same to me for my endorsement and
l will present it to the Department.
81 enclose herewith a statement show
ing where these guns can be obtained
and you will, in your application, de-
scribe the guns you want and state
where they are now located"
Now why not at this late day take
up the matter again? Why not secure
this sort of an ornament for our park?

The War in Brief.

The war between Japan and Russia
was fought on the issue of the independ-
ence of Korea and the integrity of Man
churia as part of the Chinese empire.
Russia had consented to consider the is
sue as to Korea but held that the Man
churian question was between her and
China. Her refusal to treat on this
point let to the breaking of diplomatic
relations, February 6, 1904. Two days
later Japanese torpedo boats attacked the
Russian fleet at Port Arthur. War was
formally declared Febru Try 10. The
battle of the Yalu was fought April 30,
30 and May l. August 10, the Port
Arthur fleet was broken up by the
Japanese Admiral Togo, and the Vladi.
vostok fleet was defeated, August ID.
The assault on Port Arthur, begun Au-
gust 10, lasted till January /. when it
surrendered. The Baltic fleet was de-
stroyed in sea battle May 81 and 80.
President Roosevelt proposed a peace
conference, June s. Japan accepted
two days and Russia four days later.
The first session of the peace conference
was held August 8. Agreement reached
August 30. Japan wins the issue on
which she went to war, succeeds to the
lease of Port Arthur and regains half of
the island of Sakhalin.
During the war Japan is said to have
mobolized nearly 100000 and Russia $40,
600 men, or a total of $4,000 were
engaged in the war. The number Of
soldiers killed, disabled and invalided is
computed at 625,Ooo, $4,000 Russians
and $50, 900 Japanese. Japan lost only
one officer of conspicuous rank, Com
mander Oda. The monetary expendi
ture is figured at over 81 900, 900, 900 for
Russia and S475, 100000 for Japan. The
Russian navy lost SIS vessels, Japan "a
but 10 of these were torpedo boats, while
only two were battleships and fou
cruisers, while Russia's list contained
10 battleships and Is cruisers.

The Railway World says: Every sec
ton of the country has its separate and
peculiar problem for the railroads, in
addition to those ever-present general
questions that confront all the railways
in whatever section" Among the many
problems that continually confront the
officials of railroad is the problem of
how to interest people in the resources
of the country traversed by their road.
The problem of advertising an excursion
to ball game or picnic to some
resort requires but few moments time
in fixing the fare, arranging schedule
and ordering few thousand handbills
printed. The advertising of a state or
two or three states by the passenger
department Of a railroad requires not
only the tact of a diplomat to serve
all sections alike but it requires a cam
paign of study to learn of the varied
resources of two or three states. In
other words it requires men, money and
brains to engineer the problems that
confront the department of publicity on
all the large railroads.

Our neighbor, Weathersfeld, is Off
cially condemned to pay nearly $4,000
damages for a defective bridge that
allowed Edward P. Skinner and team to
break through and fall to the watercourse
below. 1t is easy to refer to this as
hard luck" but naturally some one is to
blame. The lesson is plain-systematic
inspection of a towns bridges by the
selectmen, or, if needful, by competent
engineer. Thus alone can such occur
rences be prevented Ludlow Tribune.
The experience that Weathers6eld has
got to pay $4,000 for may some day befall
towns in this section of Addison County.
To the west of this place may be found
several bridges and culverts that not only
demand inspection but repairs and inn
mediate repairs too.

Struck by Train.

About $3.50 last Friday afternoon a
south-bound train over the Rutland road,
struck a man and killed him near the
Wilson bridge about a mile and a
quarter this side of Leicester Junction.
1t is thought the man was deaf and
dumb as he was seen last at Belden's and
narrowly missed being hit by train
there. His clothes were searched but
there was nothing about his person to
reveal his identity. Apparently he was
about 45 years old, about six feet in
height and wore black suit The train
stopped and took the body to Leicester,
where it was turned over to the town
authorities.

The time-worn expression 1.-THE poor

joke. The fact is the farmers are no
longer poor. That the agriculturst is a

For fall vacation trip the journey to
the Lewis and Clark exposition offers
great inducements. Fasteners have this
year a half-fare rate, with privilege of
stop-overs at interesting points. and for a
slight sum in addition they can go by
one route and return by another, thus
enabling them to see the northwest and
California. Travel on the Southern
Pacific route between Portland and Los
Angeles up and down the Pacific coast
has been heavier this year than ever
before. The reduced rates will be avail
able only few weeks more, and in all
probability such an opportunity will not
be offered again for many years.

Probable Suicide" Verdict on
c harles Nc kirryher's
Death

Probable suicide" has been assigned
as the cause of the death of Charles
McKirryher in the doorway of his
sons residence on Church street in Rut-
land last Thursday, Because the body
was embalmed with a fluid that may
obliterate all traces of the poison which
the man is supposed to have taken,
it may never be proven that he took
his own life. DR.. c. S. Caverly, who
had charge of the autopsy on the body,
held Saturday. said Sunday that the
internal organs had been sent to the
state laboratory at Burlington for analy-
sis. He added this statement
"The man did not die of any or
ganic disease. The inference is, there
fore. that he committed suicide. A
great quantity of formaldehyde in the
embalming fluid may have caused such
chemical action that the presence of
the poison which we supposed was
taken may not be discovered in the
organs. which have been sent to Bur-
lington for analysis"
The funeral of Mr.. McKirryher was
held in this village Saturday afternoon.
Services also were held at the house
in Rutland, Rev. M. H. Smith officiat-
ing. The bearers were ii. g. Fish,
Edward LaReau, Henry Imhoff, D. L.

and expressive term for u sharp stab

accumulation of carbonic acid than can
