/ The Montpelier Journal OF yesterday
reports that II. T.. Morse, a well known
carpenter of that city. has purchased OF
/ Henry +. Abbott a half interest in the

years ago and has been doing large busi-
ness. The new member OF the firm is a
I popular aud efficient carpenter In Mont
pelier, having gone there from Randolph.
Judge and Mrs. VIM. II. Nichols are
entertaining the judges uaughter-in-law,
Mrs. Benito Nichols, and her son, George,
OF London, Eng, who arrived Saturday
from NeN York, where they landed the
/ first OF February. They are 10 leave here
Monday for Boston, from which city they
will go to New York and start the first OF

The Randolph Telephone exchange in
stalled yesterday in the Emerson mill a
telephone with an extra heavy gong, loud
enough to be heard in all parts OF the
building, TO act as fire alarm, the mill
having also direct communication with
the hose house so that when the alarm is
sounded the fremen can be told at once
where to go. The alarm can be sent from
{
office TO the mill, where the gong will
sound, and the watchman will blow the
whistle and notify the hose house OF the
locality of the blaze. The board OF trus-
tees. at the meeting next Monday evening,
will divide the village into fire districts,
and then the whistle will be blown a
certain number of times for each district.
This has more the appearance OF modern
methods in civic affairs than the old fash
ion Of giving the alarm and then hunting
for the fire.
The basket ball team OF the Young
Mems club played against the Montpelier
High school team at the gymnasium in
Montpelier Tuesday evening and were
defeated by a score OF 40 to y. The Y. NJ.
c. boys found themselves handicapped by
the position OF the baskets and the floor OF
the gymnasium, which was hard to play on.
The Montpelier Journal has this to say of
the game 1.-THE visitors were weak at
blocking and shooting; II they could have
taken advantage of all their opportunities
at the basket the score would not show
quite so strong a balance against them.
The M. II. s. team showed itself stronger
aud better versed in the various phases
OF the game than the Randolph team; but
the latter, under coaching, would be able
more nearly TO measure up TO the belliger-
ent color OF its bright red suits than it did
in this game. The visitors played quite
uniform game"

WIFE SETTLED
APPOINTMENT
NOW SOME OF THE POLITICIANS
FEEL AGGRiEvED.
They Feel That the Office Should Gc
to a Party Worker, But Governor
Says No.

Topeka, Kas., March 2S.-The ap-
pointment of John Q. Royce, to be
bank commissioner which is so dis
tasteful to Speaker Stubbs that it
threatens to create serious trouble in
the Republican party, is said to have
been arranged on "the Pike" at the
st. Louis exposition last summer
shortly after Governor Hoch was NOM
mated. The nominee for governor
and his wife and Mr.. and Mrs. Royce
visited the worlds fair in party.
The four people were sitting in cafe
on the pike
We'll, John" said Mr. Hoch, 81
guess l will have to give you some
thing when l get in Office"
"Oh, l don't want much" Royce re-
piled.
you need not hesitate to ask me if
| am elected" said Mr.. Hoch. The
four then discussed the various places
which the new governor would have to
fill. 1t was decided that warden of the
penitentiary or bank commissioner
would be given to Mr.. Royce.
1t was Mrs. HoCh who turned the
scale in favor of the bank commits
sionership on the ground that the two
families could then live in Topeka
and maintain more intimate relations.
Speaker Stubbs, who groomed Mr..
Hoch for the governorship insisted
that the commissionership should go
to a party worker but the governor
insists that Mrs. Hoch has already set
tied the matter.

DOUBLE SUICIDE
At CLEVELAND

Cleveland, O., March 2S.-What was
undoubtedly q suicide pact between
two men unable to withstand their
craving for liquor longer last night
resulted in the death of Henry L..
Woodward, of New York and Charles
A. Brouse of Toledo, acquaintances of
but a few days. Both were travelling
men. Both were on a protracted spree.
Both found themselves without funds.
Both sent bullets through their brains
as near as can be learned at the same
minute in their rooms at the Hollen-
den hotel Woodward, a brOther-in-
law of n. N. Stranahan, collector Of
the port of New York also, brother
of c. S. Woodward of the supreme
court Of New York, whose wife, Mrs.
Cora Woodward is now living at NO.
l161 Amsterdam avenue of that city
and who representing the Banks Law
Publishing Co. of New YORK, arrived
at the HolIenden hotel ten days ago
from Ashtabula. At the latter place
he had sustained an injury to his ankle
which caused him much pain at times.
Five days ago Brouse registered at the
Hollenden hotel representing the Ma
tional Supply Co. Of Toledo, Ohio.
Both became acquainted in the hotel
bar and started in to make a round of
the principal drinking emporiums Of
the down town district. Shortly before
noon today their failure to appear at
tracted attention and the investigation
showed that Woodward had been dead
for at least ten hours. hu!iet having
been sent through his right temple,
When an entrance was effected into
Brouse's room on the floor below he
too was found stretched out on his
bed, revolver in hand and an ugly
bullet wound back of his right ear.
FATHER LIVES NEAR AKRON.
Toledo, O., March 2S.-Charles A,
Brouse, who committed suicide at the
Hollenden House at Cleveland last
night was up to January 1st last a
travelling salesman for the National
Supply Co., dealers in oil well supplies
of this city. He left the firms employ
of his own free will. Officers and en-
ployes were very much surprised to
learn of his death. He was the last
man they would expect to take his own
life. They say he was here last week
and seemed in his usual good spirits
although he was out of employment
He said he had some offers but did not
consider them good enough. He was
unmarried. His father lives near Ak
ron.

POSSE SURROUNDS
ESCAPED MURDERER
BARRIcADED IN MOUNTAINS AND
FIGHT is EXPECTED.
Refuses to Surrender and Has Friends
Who Will Make a Desperate
Defense.

Bluefield, w. Va, March 2S.-A
sheriff and posse have surrounded Jim
Taylor, the convicted murderer, who
broke Jail while waiting transportation
to the penitentiary to serve q life i'm
prisonment and bloody battle is ex-
pected before morning. Taylor, with a
dozen of his desperate friends, who
made his escape from jail possible
have barricaded themselves in the
house of John Harris in the wild
mountain region between Gialto and
Godfrey.
The sheriff after the Jail delivery
tracked the murderer to the Harris
house.
Taylor refuses to surrender and he
and his friends have notified the sher-
iff that they will kill him or any of his
deputies on sight.
Leaving a guard to watch the house
and prevent the men escaping into
mountains, the sheriff went to Prince
ton and Goodyille tonight and has Sc
cured so additional deputies.
These deputies are now ON their way
to the Harris house and as soon as
they arrive the law officers will storm
the barricade farm house and take
Taylor dead or alive.

the action is adverse, the money will
then be turned over to the Dominican
government. If it is favorable, it will
be distributed among the creditors in
proportion to their just claims under
the treaty. Meanwhile Mr. Hollander
will thoroughly investigate these
claims, including the claim of the Am
erican improvement Co., and will re-
port in detail all the information he is
able to gather as to the amount actu-
ally received by Santo Domingo, the
amount of Indebtedness nominally in
Cured, the circumstances, so far as
they are known, under which the vari-
GUS debts were incurred, and so forth.
This action is rendered necessary
by the peculiar circumstances Of the
case. The treaty now before the SEN
ate was concluded with Santo Domingo
at Santo Domingo's earnest request,
repeatedly pressed upon us, and was
, submitted to tho senate, because in my
Judgment, 1t was our duty to our less
fortunate neighbor to respond to her
call for aid, inasmuch as we were the
| only power who could give this aid,
and inasmuch as her need for it was
very great. The treaty is now before
the senate and has been favorably re-
ported by the committee on foreign
relations. 1t 10 pending, and final ac-
ton will undoubtedly be taken when
congress convenes next fall. Mean
while, Santo Domingo has requested
that the action above outlined be TAX
en-; that is. she desires in this way to
maintain the status quo, SO that if
the treaty is ratified 1t can be execut-
ed.
with this purpose in view, direct
that the proposed arrangement be ap-
proved. It will terminate as soon as
the senate has acted one way or the
other.

STRENUOUS INITIATION
Resulted in Probably Fatal Injuries to
the Candidate.

Cincinnati, o., March 2S.-Antonio
Cianciolo, fruit dealer, it developed to-
day, is lying at the point of death at
his home No. 533 West Sixth street
from an injury received couple of
nights ago while being initiated into
membership In the Needall Mutual Aid
Society. Cianciolo was struck on the
back with a paddle in the hands of a
member whose name he will not di-
vulge and a cartridge that is attached
to this ceremonial paddle was explod-
ed and a missile buried several inches
in his back. 1t is claimed that by
mistake the man who welded the pad
die struck Cianciolo with the wrong
side of it, thereby allowing the bullet
from the cartridge to penetrate his
flesh. The wife of the victim says she
will prosecute the person or persons
responsible for her husbands injury
whether or not he RECEIVERS.

gram from Governor General Davis

the French management the annual
death rate was 67 per thousand.
In continuing the governor general
wires: The Deaths from yellow fever
in the Ancon hospital only during the
year 1881 were 25 in an average force
of 92S while the deaths from yellow
fever during The past 10 months in a
force averaging $500 were only six.
The French statistics only relate to
the Ancon hospital. If all deaths
among the employees under the French
during that time along the entire line
were included the mortality would be
much higher The last case of yellow
fever to occur in Panama was on
March and the last case from Colon
on March 16 The actual number OF
| cases among the entire population or
the isthmus during January was 10
during February 13, and during Marct

Pretty kimonoS.

There is nothing prettier nor more
girlish in the way of dressing sacques
than short kimono, especially wheI
its Japanese character is brought oui
by the material of which it is made
If plain color is used, let it be ol
some soft pale shade, with the bands
that border it of a contrasting color
If there is time and work to spare
a design of scattered blossoms, EN-
broidered in natural colors, makes VI
charmingly and makes it still more
Japanese. Drapery silks, well GOV
cred with chrysanthemums Or cherry
blossoms, are the next best substitute
and are both wide and inexpensive
although a number of cotton Stuffs
which will bear repeated washings
are much less expensive and almosi
as effective.
