The noteworthy number of natives
of Vermont in proportion to the size
of the state who have achieved re-
markable success in various directions
in other states is again emphasized
by the facts brought out in connection
with the death of Caleb c. Willard,
owner of the Ebbitt house in Wash
ington and the possessor of several
millions of dollars worth of real es-
tate in the national capital. The de-
ceased was one of three brothers. who
have won national regulations in con-
nection with the keeping of hotels at
the seat of our general government.
The three brothers made their way
from Vermont to the national capital
previous to the civil war, working
their way by serving as stewards on
the Hudson river steamers and in
various other capacities. Joseph and
Henry, the two older brothers, became
the founders and owners of WIZARDS
hotel long centre and popular re-
sort for politicians. which has recent
ly been rebuilt on an extensive scale
by Joseph +. Willard. the son of Jo-
seph. and now the lieutenant governor
of Virginia. Joseph Willard died
about Is years ago and the death or
Caleb leaves Henry A. Willard as the
only survivor of this famous triumvt-
rate of ifaces.-Burlington Free

Curious Case Under the Tax Law.

Have John Sheehan and Charles
Evans life sentences in county jan
This is a question they and their
friends are asking. says The Mont
pelier Argus. They We're committed
for non payment of taxes two months
ago and they are no nearer being re-
leased to-day than they were the day
they We're jailed Both men thought
at first it was a great joke on some
body. They reasoned their board
would be paid and they could loll in
idleness. They now find this is the
hardest kind of work they have done
in their lives and they have sent word
to Overseer Parmenter begging him to
use some means to secure their re-
lease.
Oyerseer Parmenter gives them no
hone Just as soon as he pays. the
taxes of one and the accommodating
board bill that goes with It the !ail
will be full of others. The longer the
men stay in, the bigger their board
bill gets and the smaller their chances
of getting out.
John Sheehan was arrested for a
Moretown tax. He was committed
January 10 of this year, so that II
would appear that he has been in jail
over six months. His board bill is
over 300. His tax was originally
s2.75. Charles Evans was committed
Nav and he has been in Jail three
months. He was arrested by Consta-
BILE Buchanan of Barre for taxes
amounting to s6.16. His board bill is
about $50. Mortified is chargeable
for Sheehan's board but that town is
going to fight the case. claiming that
the payment of such an execution
would make a town chargeable with a
tax of one of the citizens which II IS
contended is unconstitutional. On the
question of board, Sheriff Tracy LOOKS

Rotten Apples.

The usual hard luck" stories from
farmers who lost hay on account OF
the scarcity of help to harvest 1t are
sorry reading for those of us VINO
have the welfare of our state at heart.
The apple crop is about to be har-
vested and stories of the scarcity Of
help barrels and freight cars will tell
us why hundreds. of bushels of fruit
are left rotting in the orchards.
The farmer is often made the unfor-
tunate victim of frosts and insects,
but he makes himself victim OF cir
cumstances if he waits until the APP
pies fall before arranging for extra
help. packing material and shipments.
There are more than 2O000000O APP
pie trees in our country. and ap-
praised at the low figure of 50 tree
there is more than half billion dol
lars invested in trees. exclusive OF the
land values No figures are at hand
to show what proportion OF TINS
amount is invested in Vermont. but
our state is section fairly well
adapted to apple growing and the crop
should be made a most profitable one

basis.

"Fads and Fancies."

The publishers of New York $50
ciety" publication under the above
name are In trouble II appears that
they charged for printing "puffs" and
charged more for not printing
.'roasts." The country newspaper Is
expected to print the former for moth
ing and gets roundly abused II II
prints any "roasts', whether deserved
or not. A good many people want
their names left out Of the paper,
Some are even willing to pay to be
left out. They are never wiling 10
nav unless there is some disgrace con-
nected with the publication. Few
country editors, however are so lost
to the conception of their duty to the
public as to accept any money Tor
such favor. but too often 1t Is
granted on grounds of friendship or
policy As for "puffs" anyone can get
those for the mere asking.
This is all wrong. The function OF
a newspaper is to give the news IL
is no news to say because John Doe
Is a candidate for fence viewer that he
Is "one of our most successful ana
popular young men," when, as mat
ter of fact, John never does his work
as he ought to and owes everybody in
town. 1t is not giving the news TO
neglect to mention that Tom Jones
was fined for disturbing the peace
because Tom happens to be cousin
of the biggest advertiser. The editor
as a rule, gets no pleasure out OF re-
fusing a request to print or not 10
print any particular item of news, but
the paper that grants such requests
for any but the strongest reasons Is
not doing its duty by its subscribers
and will not be successful

A WAY OPEN.

There is a way open to convince the
greatest skeptic. Scores of Brattle-

public statement of their experience is
proof, the like of which has never been

this case of it given by citizen:

Williamsville village and Newfane,
three and a half miles from Brattle-
boro, says: ITO a man engaged in my
calling a good sound back is indis-
pensable but when that is weak and is
subject TO attacks of aching particu-
larry if he contracts cold or over-ex-
erts himself he is on such occasions
in abject misery. When the attacks
were at their height / noticed this
weakness and aching every morning
and for an hour or two after l arose
and even when up and walking around
for any length of time the soreness
was very apparent. When a man
cannot stoop or bend without incurr-
ing sharp twinges. when he has spells
of dizziness in spite of all the medi-
cine he uses to remove the annoyances
and that man at last buys at George
