CHAMPION WOOD CHOPPER.
Vermont Wood Chopper Performs Great
Feat of Endurance.

Windsor, Vt.-Vermont has proved it
still holds the wood chopping champion
ship of the world. Edward Moot re-
Gently cut down, chopped up, split and
piled five and one-half cords of wood
in 10 hours and IS minutes
The feat was the result of boast of
Maxwell Evarts, son of the late w. M.
Evarts, at a dinner in Washington last
winter, that the Green Mountain state
possessed the huskiest chopper in the
world. Following his boast wagers to
the amount of $4,000 were made by
Evarts. Charles II. Treat, treasurer
of the United States, took $4,000 of this
wager and several senators agreed to
cover the other half.
The original wager was that Moot
could handle five cords in a day. He
did it in an hour and half less than
the required time and had an extra
eighth of cord in his pile and an
extra half cord of chopped and split
wood on the ground.
Mr.. Moot besides receiving 800 for
his days work from Mr.. Evarts is said
| to have won considerable more than
that by backing himself.
The contest was watched by a num-
Der of distinguished men whom Mr..
Evarts had brought from Washington,
New York, Boston, and by some 1000
residents of the state, who had gath
cred to encourage the state champion.
Most conspicuous among the guests
were l.. +. Lores, president of the Della
ware & Hudson railroad; l.. A. Coolidge,
assistant secretary Of the United States
treasury; Samuel G. Blythe of New
York, and A. b. Kittredge of South Da-
kota.
Woodchopper Moot laid out row of
axes, all sharpened to keen edge
shortly before the rise of the sun, in
the edge of a Eastwood growth. Re
freshing himself with drink of brandy
and milk, he made ready for the con
test. His son, Frank, stood close by
read yto hand the chopper his axes ant
| wedges as needed.
, At 1852 Mr.. Moot drove his axe int
the first tree. At 2:3O he had finished
1 chopping and splitting the five cord
2 stipulated, and the piling was abou
one-third completed.
1 Moot stopped twice to eat during tn
4 morning, taking two lunches, losing i
: minutes each. After 3 o'clock, real
f izing that he would easily win, h
4 worked more slowly, but at 4:22, a
: hour and % minutes before sunset, h
J. laid the last stick in place, amid tn
: cheers Of the crowd.

TO GIVE
THANKS
OUR ANNUAL THANKS
GIVING MONTH.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT SETS
THURSDAY, NOV. 26, AS THE
DAY OF PRAYER.

President Roosevelt has issued the
annual Thanksgiving proclamation.
After detailing the wonderful growth
of the United States Gin strength and
worldly power" the president says:
"With nation, as with the indi
viduals who make up nation, material
well-being is an indispensable founda-
ton. But the foundation avails moth
ing by itself. That life is wasted, and
worse than wasted, which is spent in
piling, heap upon heap, those things
which minister merely to the pleasure
of the body and to the power that rests
only on wealth. Upon material we'll
bling as foundation must be raised
the structure of the lofty life OF the
spirit, if this nation is properly to fulfill
it's great mission and to accomplish all
that we so ardently hope and desire.
The things of the body are good; the
things of the intellect better, but best
of all are the things of the soul; for in
the nation, as in the individual, in the
long run it is character that counts.
"Let us therefore as people set our
faces resolutely against evil, and with
broad charity, with kindliness and good
will toward all men, but with unfiinch-
ing determination to smite down wrong
strive with all the strength that is
given us for righteousness in public and
in private life.
"Now, therefore, 7, Theodore Roose
welt, president of the United States, dc
set apart Thursday, the Goth day OF
November next, as day of genera
Thanksgiving and prayer, and on thai
day l recommend that the people shall
cease from their daily work, and i,
homes or in their churches meet de
voutly to thank. the Almighty for thu
many and great blessings they hav'
received in the past and to pray tina
they may be given the strength so t.
order their lives as to deserve con
tinuation of these blessings in tn

Judge Gordon
Short in Accounts

Seattle, WASH, Nov. 3.-M. j. Cor
don, for five years justice of the SUI
preme court of the State of Washington
and for three years chief justice, and
who after leaving the bench was up to
two months ago counsel for the Great
Northern Railway company in the Spo
kane district, is said to be short in his
accounts with the Great Northern to
an amount in excess of $4,000.
Unfortunate speculation in stocks, it
is alleged, led him to divert to his own
use money entrusted to him to settle
judgements. Judge Gordon two months
ago made statement Of his affairs to
w. R. Begg. general solicitor for the
Great Northern, and he was accorded
a chance to make restitution to the best
Of his ability.
In his capacity as attorney for the
company Judge Gordon had authority
to draw money to settle claims, taking
vouchers for the money disbursed,
which were forwarded to the Office of
the general solicitro, w. R. Begg.
Last spring Judge Gordon drew sutfi.
cient mony to settle several judgements
which were pending in his district.
Information that the claims had not
been paid reached the office of the gen
eral solicitor, who came west two
months ago to make an Investigate IN.
Judge Gordon has taken up his resi-
dence in Tacoma and has opened Law
| offices. BE saws there is nothing Il
the story of the shortage.
