The War.

Interest in the Eastern war has
once more shifted from land TO sea.
There are no military developments
the past week, except that both sides
are drawing heavy achievements.
Japan will have million men in
Manchuria this summer and 700 GOO
OF them on the fighting line. The
Russian Pacific feet, or at least the
greater part of it, has passed from
the Indian Ocean to the China Sea.
and is thus within the zone where it
may meet the Japanese fleet and
great naval battle be fought at any
time. The Russian fleet passed
Singapore Saturday in the daytime,
having made the trip through the
narrow Malacca Straits in safety. 1t
was at first supposed that Rojestven-
sky's whole feet went through, but
later it appeared that several of his
heaviest Dattleships and some of the
destroyers were not with this feet,
and speculation is rife as to their
whereabouts. 1t is generally believed
that RojestvenskY has taken his
strongest fighting squadron further
south and will try to enter the Pacific
seas through straits in that direction,
and will then attempt to reunite with
the first division. What the purpose
is, or what the result, no one knows.

AS summer approaches and the
usual fence and bridge poster adver-
Using campaign begins, it may be
well TO remind those contemplating
such schemes that the general assem-
bly, of 1904 passed law on posting
advertising matter as follows:
Any person who shall post any pri-
fence, post, bridge, tree or rock, on
any public highway or street in this
state, without the consent of the
selectmen of the town, trustees of the
incorporated village, or mayor of the
city in which said fence, post, bridge,
tree or rock is located, and the abut
ting land owner, first had and OBJ
tanned, shall be fined not more than
ten dollars.

What about a non professional
baseball league this summer between
the larger towns in this part of the.
state? Lyndonville is ready for it.
Let US bear from Newport, st Johns

played in all these towns this year,
and it will be a deal more satisfactory
if the games are arranged with some
system so that we can tell at the end

in great demand at good wages, and
in many instances are working over
time to keep up with the rush.
The Rough Riders Reunion.
President Roosevelt enjoyed gen.
uine greeting at San Antonio, Texas.
Friday among the members of his old
Rough Rider regiment, organized
seven years before at that place. He
entered into the whole spirit of the
occasion, giving hearty grasp to all
of his old comrades. The city was
en- fete in his honor. After the re-
union. he left for a hunting exoedi-
ton in Oklahoma, where he now is.
with only few companions.
Great Honor for Choate.
Ambassador Joseph H Choate was
recently elected master of the bench
of the Middle Temple" Among
English lawyers this is the most dis
tinguished honor they could confer
on any outsider. The action calls
Mr.. Ohoate TO the English bar, and
elects him d member of the govern
ing BODY of the Middle Temple. Five
signers of the Declaration of hide
pendence were members of the
Middle Temple. Since then not a
single American has been "a member.
Equitable to Mutualize in Two Years,
At meeting of the directors of the
Equitable Life Assurance society last
week, it was unanimously agreed to
adopt the SO called two years. mutu-
alzation plan, under which the policy
holders, at that time, will have &C
quired the right to elect majority of
the directors. A committee, headed
by E. H. Hartman, was directed to
investigate the affairs of the Equita-
BILE. There is still much contention
between the Alexander and HYDE
factions, however.
European Diplomatic Finesse.
The German ambassador called at
the state department last week and
reiterated the position of Germany.
as stated by Emperor William, rela-
tive to the "open door, in Morocco.
The matter has little interest to the
United States. AS if to answer Will
liam, King Edwards visit to Paris
last week was made the occasion OF
renewing the entente that exists be-
tween Great Britain and France, one
feature of which is the recognition by
the former of Frances primacy of in
teres5 in Morocco. No serious out
come OF the clash in diplomacy is
looked for.

There are some who think it's praising
Not to raise a row and kick
And they'll pay an extra dollar
To a chap that's extra slick
But it isn't that that heartenS-
It's the kind word and the thought
For the deed done and the doer,
Out of which the good is wrought
As when the weary pilgrim,
Who has trod the long, hard way,
With its profits and its losses
Measured to him day by day,
Hears the kind words of the Master,
Like the songs of cherubim:
well done, thou good and faithful -
1t is Heaven enough for him.

chickens are noted White, Barred
and Buff Plymouth Rocks, White
and Brown Leghorns, White Crest

peciaIIv beautiful and valuable will
