During a recent case in the New
York city court the assertion was made,
with no denial coming, that in the last
two years the mortality rate on account
of automobile accidents had been one vic
tim PEI day in Greater New York. In
view of this statement it is easy to
understand why London's well-known
Marquis of Queensberry asks permission
to carry gun that he may protect HIM
self from the autoist. a cable dis
patch to the Chicago Tribune says:
THE Marquis of Queensberry is in
such terror of automobiles that he in
quired at the West London police court
the other day whether he could ATTAIN a
license for carrying a gun or pistol in
order to protect himself from the deadly
onslaughts of the automobile fiends who
render the continuance of life in the
Hammersmith road a doubtful matter.
Lord Queensberry has occasion to cross
that thoroughfare several times daily,
and the account he gave of his hair.
breadth escapes from death by auto.
mobiles was almost as renal kable as his
application. Twice in the last ten days
his removal to another world by an au-
tomobile has been question of inches.
The nurse in the Queensberry house
hold, too, goes in such terror of automo-
biles that she absolutely declines to take
the responsibility of conveying the mar
quis' children across the Hammersmith
road, so that he himself is compelled to
take his children to the park.
Magistrate Lane smiled kindly and
said he feared if the marquis carried
loaded gun about he might find him
self in difficulties, but if he could get
a license he was at perfect liberty to
carry revolver. He did not say, how
ever, that the marquis was at liberty to
shoot the automobiles.
''Do not imagine for a moment" said
the marquis afterwards, that | am

Harry Mccormick, an inmate of the
Addison county Jail, awaiting trial at the
coming term of county court on a charge
of forgery, disappeared from that institu-
ton early last Wednesday morning. An
entrance was effected from the outside of
the Jail and the partylassisting McCor-
mick to his freedom must have had a
very accurate knowledge of the interior
of the building Entrance was secured
to the building by way of the door on the
north side of the building and screen
door shows where the party entered.
There is an air of mystery about the
whole affair,
The authorities have no clues and the
escaped prisoner seem to have complete
ly disappeared from the face of the earth.
He was in his cell at II 80 p. m. Tuesday
night and at 4:30 a. m. the following
morning was missed, having walked out
during the night. He carried all his be-
longings besides taking the blankets from
his cot.
Mccormick was placed in Jail some
months ago on a charge of Offering
worthless checks to which it is alleged he
forged the signature of Nelson Murray of
Lincoln. He married Miss Anna Nc
Mahon of this town and while on his
honeymoon was arrested at Lancaster,
n. III E, and brought here.

mont,

The 18th annual meeting of the Con-
gregational Convention of Vermont will
be held at the Center church, Brattleboro,
June 1915 inclusive. The program is
fresh, well out of the beaten path, and is
devoted exclusively to religious problems
of immediate practical interest. Among
the subjects treated will be "Christ's
Message to the American People," 'The
Outstanding of America, 1.-The Evan
gelistic Forward Movement" but a
unique feature of the program is the
prominence given to work for boys and
men There will be papers on Boys
Clubs" Boys Camps, "'Boys Brigade"
THE Chivalric Idea in Work with Boys
and several kindred topics. Men and
the Church is another subject which
will receive considerable attention. The
program is rich in the lay talent secured,
among the speakers being the attorney
general of Vermont, the Hon. Clark c..
Fits of Brattleboro, S. HOLSTER jackson
of Barre and Principal E. II. Dorsey of
Ludlow. The convention preacher this
year is Rev. f. A. Poole of Barre. The

United States vs.. Ianan

A very short time ago the president
of the Japanese house of peers in an
address before that assembly. made the
following remarkable and significant
statement:
"The sacred duty is incumbent upon
us as the leading State of asiatic pro-
gress, to stretch helping hand to
China, India, Corea, to all the Asiatics
who have confidence in us, and who
are capable of civilization. AS their
most powerful friend, we desire them
all to be free from the yoke which Eu-
rope has placed upon them, and that
they may thereby prove to the world
that the Orient is capable of measur-
ing swords with the Occident on any
| field of battle"
This sentiment seems like a strong
vindication of the assertion of the
| friends of Russia in the present strug-
gle in the East that the success of the
Japanese in the present war will in
evitably arouse in them the spirit of
domination and an arrogance that will
prove unpleasant to this country in the
future. In a recent address before
the American Academy of Political
and Social Science, John Hays Ham
mond took the view that the victory
/
formidable competitors that this coun-
try is destined to have in the CONNER
cial warfare for the trade with the
millions of the Orient. In this war
fare which is thus predicted Mr.. Ham
mond declares that in many respects
the Japs will be advantageously stu
ated. They probably will establish a
suzerainty of ownership over Korea,
and possibly over Manchuria. This
will let them in on the ground floor
The present agitation in the western
states looking to the exclusion of the
Japanese from this country, as well
as the Chinese, will prompt the Japs
to retaliate to our commercial disad
vantage in these two countries. With
the indemnity that is sure to be eX
pected from Russia, the japanese gov
eminent will still further strengthen
its present navy, which has already
proven to be one of the most formid
able on the waters. This WILL accord
ing to the idea of Mr.. Hammond, neces
state powerful American squadron
on the Pacific. Thus, everything con
sidered, if Mr.. Hammond's views are
correct, the victory of the Japs vii
prove embarrassing to us in the no
far distant future.
According to this speaker the de
mands of the situation will necessitat
close commercial alliance. offensiv,
and defensive, between the United
States and England.
1t would be strange, indeed. shoulC
the two nations that have been tn
consistent champions Of the Japs il
the present struggle find themselve
embarrassed by the victory. 1t cal
hardly be expected that the japanese
crowned with victory, will consent t
play negative part in the moulding
of the policies of the Far East. Flush
ed with triumph, it would be surpris
ing did they not feel, as the presiden
of the house of peers just quoted, a
to the sacred duty" of the most pow
erful of the nations of the Orient.
However, all is as yet conjecture
The result of the war is bound to b
far-reaching. 1t is possible that thi
war will prove the most important a
regards world policies that the worl
has known since the great Napoleoni
struggle.-Terre Haute Morning Star

Judging by the columns of the Mid
dlebury Register there is big demand
for Morgan horses this season. The
owners of fine stations in that county
do not need to be told that advertising
pays. They know it. Buyers go to
Addison when they want good horses
because they advertise horses in that
county. Here is a hint for horse breed
ers in other counties. The Addison
county papers are carrying the adver-
tisements of nearly 20 horses. Chitten-
den county papers are not carrying a
single one. Is it any wonder the peo-
pie do not think good horses are raised
in this county? There is good, big
money in raising good horses. They
know il in Addison county. Do they
know it here?-Burlingto Clipper.
The Clipper is right. There is good,
big money in raising good horses-good
Morgan horses.

In its salutatory the new manage
ment of the Montpelier Daily Journal
says: "The new owners have bought
the Journal and Waterman as a bust
ness venture and will conduct it as a
business enterprise with the primary
object of making it pay, just the same
as every sane merchant, manufacturer
or other business man bends his ener-
gies."
With the above object in view the
reorganized Journal and Waterman will
prove success and under the hand
of F. E. Howe as its editorial pilot, a
first class newspaper is assured.

In reporting the Memorial day exer-
cises at Enosburg the Standard of that
town refers to the orator of the day,
Frank C. Partridge, formerly of this
town, as follows: 1.-THE address by Mr..
Partridge was one of the best Memorial
day orations among the many able and
eloquent ones delivered in Enosburg
Falls in the past number of years His
address was of just the right length
and was plain and undramatic but
earnest and eloquent effort.

the state hatcheries have done a large

other species of fish. In some localities
good catches of fish have been made,
but the trout season has not fairly
opened yet, owing to the continued cold

COLLEGE NOTES.

Coach Vaughn has returned to Dart
mouth after a weeks trip with the
varsity.
Prof. C. B. Wright and friends spent
Saturday at Grand View. Several of |
the students were also visitors at that |
place Saturday.
The Seniors will take their last ex-
animation this afternoon. At that time
the list of Phi Beta Kappa students will
be announced.
Ed. c. McGinnity, ex-'OS, was in town
over Sunday.
The Delta Epsilon fraternity gave
dance last week in their rooms.
The Junior class ri Beta Phi sorority
gave an afternoon tea on Saturday to
several of their friends.
The athletic association held their
annual meeting last Saturday morning
when the election of officers for the
ensuing year took place. B. J. Mulcahy
was elected manager of the base ball
team and NJ. d. Olmstead assistant
manager. The constitution was amended
so that permanent treasurer will have
full charge of the financial affairs of the
association. G. A. Acton was elected to
fill this office. 1t is the purpose of the
students to put the athletic association
on a firmer financial basis and this
amendment is certainly move in the
right direction. The treasurer will have
to certain extent the power to collect
taxes.
The Niddlebury college second team
was defeated by the Bridport A. A. at
Bridport, II to 2 last Saturday. The
defeat was due mainly to their inability
to bat and the poor decisions of the
umpire.
st. Lawrence University played a re-
turn game with Middlebury on Friday
which resulted in score of to in
favor of Middlebury. The game was
called at the end of the fifth inning on
account of rain. Middlebury was de-
feated by st. Lawrence at Canton and
they determined to even up the honors
when st. Lawrence came here. The
fielding of the varsity was excellent not
an error being made. 1t Is probable that
this is the only game that was ever
played here without an error. Shanahan
made fine running catch and Duff
stopped a ground ball which was very
difficult to handle. The hitting of the
team was first class and Quinn would
have been forced to leave the box if the
game had been continued much longer.
The work of st. Lawrence was very
weak both in the field and at the bat
Heaton made one three base hit. Jerry"
Wilson ex-'05 played first base for st.
Lawrence. 1t is significant that the
first time that Wilson ever played
against st. Lawrence with Middlebury
he shut them out to and the first base
ball game that he played against Mid
dlebury he was defeated to O. This is
the last game that the varsity will play
on their home grounds and it was good
game to finish the season. Although
Middlebury has only won games out of
/ yet they showed by Fridays game that
they were capable of playing good ball.
The last game of the season will be
played at Bristol on Saturday. Each
team has won game. 1t will be a close
contest and Middlebury will endeavor to
win.
The score of Fridays game was as
follows:

TAFT IN JAPAN.

If there was any doubt as to the
attitude of Japan toward this
country it was absolutely dispelled
by the welcome accorded Secretary
Taft on his arrival in the land of
the Mikado on his way to the
Philippines. The reception was
only in part personal as Taft is
known to but few of the Japanese.
The tribute was intended for the
representative of the country whose
chief executive is responsible for the
arbitration which may end the war
between that nation and Russia. TT G
relations existing between the u. s.
and Japan, always cordial, have
become specially intimate durir g
late years, due in part 10 the aG.

by his successor.

HEART FORCE.

The man who succeeds is the man
who puts his heart into his work.
His head also.
Yes. Ability to do, skill in doing.
knowing how-all these are neces-
sary.
But
Over and above all these qualitit S
is the prime quality of enthusiasm
heart force.
And just here is where many a
man loses out. He is in the wrong
business. He cannot enthuse oy, r
his work. He is in the wrong place
in life and therefore takes no Joy in
his work. He does not like his Job
and puts no heart power into it.
He is the round man in the square
hole, or vica versa.
Note this: If you put circle in
side a square hole or square in
side of circle there is contact at
only four points. So of the man
who is m1sfit. Life, true life, &C.
cording to all the definitions, is cor
respondence with ones environ
mert. The square man must get
out of the round hole and the round
man out of the square hole.
There can be no true success with
out heart force behind it. The man
must like his work and put JOY il
to his work. 4
The secret of successful living is
to be rightly placed and to be en-
amored of your line of business.
II you will notice, it is the man
who "loses heart" in his job who
loses his job. 1t must be so. List
lessness cannot stand in competition
with the,ret-hot force of enthusiasm.
Along all lines of human en-
deavor-commerce, business, study
art, or what not-the distinguish
ing quality of success is heart force
What you do, do with all vour
heart. Heart force is power.

RESPECT FOR THE FLAG AND THE
UNIFORM.

BY a recent decision handed dow n
by one of the higher courts Of this
country, there is nothing to prevent
anyone who wishes to do so from
wearing the official uniform of the
United States army. The decision
came as a result of a discharged
officer appearing in public in full
uniform, and when the proper
authorities attempted to force him
to abandon the uniform the officer
took the matter into court, with a
successful result. The instance
cited only emphasizes the laxity of
our laws in regard to those things
which should be held sacred through
patriotic sentiment. It is customary
to speak of the uniform of our
Soldiery as emblematlc of true
Americanism. We have been
taught that it represents the spirit
of national pride and that anyone
wearing it is entitled to the respect
Of all good citizens. The recent de-
cision places at naught all these fine
OSCILLATIONS, for, as a matter of
fact, the uniform of the United
States is"only cheap article of
adornment to be worn by any
charlatan who desires to pose as a
patriot.
In connection with this subject it
may be we'll to recall that the
national flag is unprotected by
statute from the gross indignities
to which it is subject daily in
America. The agitation for the
protection of the flag of the United
States from vulgar prostitution has
been going on for a number of
years, but it has not resulted in any
betterment of conditions. Con-
gress has been reprehensibly slow
in taking action that is obviously in
furtherance of the spirit of patriot
ism Of which the country is so sadly
in reed The national flag is today
flying from hundreds of masts be-
smeared with soap, dental, corset
breakfast food and other advertise
ments, all of which constitutes a
Haunting disgrace to the American
people. In no other nation on the
globe would such a condition of
affairs be allowed.
