en- B. Elkins tonight made the en-
phatic announcement that no engage

catherine Elkins. and the Duke De
AtruZzi of the Italian navy. The state
ment was made with the knowledge
and consent of Miss Elkins, who de-
sired that the statement should be Civ
en- to the public which has manifested
so great an interest in the matter.
Senator Elkins arrived in Washing
ton from his West Virginia home to-
day. He was asked by representa-
tive Of The Associated Press if he
cared to make any announcement con-
corning the reported engagement OF
his daughter In response he dictated
the following statement:
Il do not care to say anything fur

Duke De AbruZZi are not engaged 10

the annoyance that must have come
to the duke and his family by reason
OF the almost daily discussion of the
matter in the papers and the constant
publication of rumors for so long a
tirne-rumors which l venture to hope
wi now cease"
While the senator made it clear
that Miss Elkins and the Duke DE
Abruzzi are not engaged, he entertains
for the duke the highest regard, as
was evidenced by the reply which ne
made to an inquiry as to how well ne
was acquainted with the duke.
Not very WELL" he responded
frankly, but from what | know and
have heard of him / regard him not
only as distinguished personality, but
reason of his birth and position, but
added to this he is an able man OF
the highest character. well -kn"Wh

done things and accomplished much
besides being an efficient officer IT
high rank in the navy OF his country.
Senator F.lkins dictated the forego-
ing statements very carefully ana re-
yised them after they were written
He was earnest in his expression ol
the hope that his statement would be
accepted by the public in the spirit
in which it was made. He felt de-
licacy in discussing the matter at all
but believed that the time had ar
rived in all the circumstances to make
an announcement of the facts.

The last named vii! continue for bal

Herald and news. [volume] (West Randolph, Vt.) 1878-1943, 1908-07-30

The criminal record of last week in
Vermont was startling enough to satisfy
even the cravings of a yellow journal.
Besides the ordinary run of minor hap
penings, there were two murders (both in
Rutland county, and one attempted kill
ing at Hardwick. Rutland county has
supplanted Bennington in the unenviable
record of furnishing the most homicides.
Seven in single year is quite too many.
What is the matter? Is passion more UNI
controlled, or is the fear Of punishment
less? The so-called foreign element
figures largely in the majority OF YER
mont's recent homicides, and the increase
of that element may, in part, account for
the bad showing.

THE PRESS OUTING.

The Vermont Press association enjoyed
rare privilege, as well as most delight
full hospitality, on the occasion OF its
summer outing last week. The members,
with their ladies', visited the new Proctor
sanatorium at Pittsford, and held a ban
quet at the Bardwell House, Rutland,
Thursday, and put in the day Friday in
specting the quarries, manufacturing
plants and other features of the great
business of the Vermont Marble COM
Rutland and Proctor. The party, num-
boring over fifty, were the guests of the
company both days, and their comfort
was looked after by Governor Proctor
and the officials OF the company person
ally, who headed parties OF sightseers and
pointed out the things of chief interest.
The Pittsford sanatorium, the gift of
the late Senator Proctor to Vermont, has
begun great and grand work in. the
cure of cases of incipient tuberculosis.
The place has little suggestion of the
ordinary hospital, but is bright and
cheerful home, with every comfort and
luxury OF the best hotel, where kind
nature is at her best, and willing at
tendants, nourishing fare and COM
plete rest combine to win the patient
back to health. Results thus far have
been altogether encouraging. The latest
report shows a total OF 50 admissions
since the institution opened Dec. Is last,
charged, eight apparently cured, nine
with disease arrested and four improved.
There are now 81 patients. The sanstori-
um has at present a capacity OF 80 pa
tients, and with some slight additions of
sleeping quarters about so could be ac-
commodsted. There will be a flood of
applications for admission as soon as the
public becomes acquainted with the OPP
portunity here afforded. The fee per pa
tient is only $3.50 per week, while the
actual cost, on the basis OF the present
number Of patients, is nearly double
that sum. One gets an idea of the broad
and humane philanthropy of Senator
Proctor only after visit to, and inspec-
ton of. this Pittsford sanatorium.
The Bardwell House banquet was en-
joyable as these events always are when
the kindred spirits OF the press boys
assemble. The presence of the ladies
and their participation in the after
dinner speaking, with responses that
indicate what really makes the press Of
Vermont the Archimedian lever it is, lent
an additional feature of interest. Brother
Hindley co-operated with the Proctor
people in ministering to the pleasure and
entertainment of the party here.
OF the trip to the marble mills and
quarries, there will be much to say from
now on, by every editor who went, as
much concerning the extent and the
methods of operation of this, the states
largest single industry.
The afternoon stay at Proctor, with its
delightful banquet at the Y. NJ. c. A.
building tit was libel to call such
spread "lunch''), was fitting culmina-
ton to the outing and left the impression
created at the outset, that Governor Proc
tor, his family, the officials Of the COM
pany and all those taking part know how
to entertain in just the right way and

That Trustee Plank.

The Brandon Union doesn't approve Of
the plank in the Republican state plat
form which calls for the practical aboli-
ton of the trustee process. II says: "The
only way the Democratic party can get
ahead of that plank in the Republican
state platform is to insert one in theirs
making it capital crime to sue q labor
ing man for debt. This catering to the
labor vote to the extent of favoring un-
fair, or at least unequal legislation, will
keep any political organization for ever
in q humiliating position and will not
strengthen the party. Individually the
iaboring man sees the ridiculous position
. party is placed in by such methods and
his respect for that party is not in
creased On the other hand the Rut-
land Herald thinks the plank il the best
in the whole platform, for the reason
that II carried out it will abolish the
credit system.-Burlington News.
