Tuesday evening will be well spent if
the proper advantage is taken of the op-
portunity given by Middlebury Grange
in the presentation of the funny play,
"Way Down East" which will be played
by the best talent, to be found in this
grange, which has quite few artists
and AIT tistes in this particular line. In
addition to the very interesting special.
ties which will be given between the
acts, the election returns, by special ar
rangement, will be read from the stage.
The sale of seats will begin at Sterns' to-
day and it is foregone conclusion that
the money-bag of the grange will be
heavier when the accounts are figured
up.

When Men Hurry.

hundred men and boys had gathered
around two wagons that had come to-
gether in collision, "there are a hun
dred men standing around those two
wagons, just standing there, gawping,
apparently with nothing else to do
and not in bit Of hurry, but let any
one of those men come up the stairs
to this platform when there is a train
coming in and he'd rush and hurry and
tear himself apart to catch that train
and get glum if he missed it, though
he knew very well that thered be an
other train here In a minute. Let him
miss train by a second and he
thinks the world is coming to an end;

able parish to which he had just been
appointed.

advice and had duly impressed him
with the Importance Of always taking

members Of the congregation and
knowing that he would have to say

HENRY READE
RETURNS FROM EAST
WAS "A DELEGATE TO NATIONAL
FIREMAN's ASSOCIATION IN
COLUMBUS.

Henry Reade returned on No. 2,
from the east. He was a delegate
from the National Fireman's associa-
ton at Chicago on the 18th to 21st,
and also to the International Associa-
ton of Fire Engineers at Columbus,
25th to 2Sth. Mr.. Reade also took in
Toledo where the G. A. R. was in SEES
sion, and on the way back stopped at
the Minnesota state fair and heard
Bryan deliver political speech to 3d.
900 fair visitors, many of them dis
gusted because of the improperly of
delivering partisan speech on such
an occasion. ~;
Mr.. Reade says that everywhere he
has been the sentiment is overwhelm-
ingly for Taft, and he is satisfied that
Bryan will be more disappointed this
trip than ever before. In Chicago,
Cleveland, Toledo and other cities
Taft and Sherman pictures are posted
in the windows everywhere, and there
is no question but that the business in
terests and the laboring men are for
Taft. Marching clubs and public
demonstrations are numerous in the
cities of the east, and the sentiment
is decidedly Republican.

THE VO0D0O In HAITI.
Human Sacrifices to the God of che
e..-.ut Serpent. ..-


..u:st Serpent. ...
There is ample proof that human be-
ings have been offered as sacrifices to
the god of the serpent in Haiti. A
French archbishop of the island de-
scribes a visit made by one of the
priests to voodoo assembly. The
man had disguised himself as a negro,
and he was thus able to mingle unde-
tected with the crowd in the obscurity
outside the sacred circle. After the
white cock and white goat had been
slain and offered up and their blood
had been sprinkled on the company a
burly young negro came forward and
Frustrated himself before the priestess.
Then, still kneeling, he made his
prayer:
20 maman, I have a favor to ask of
thee" . .
"What is it, my SOM" said the
negress encouragingly.
"Wilt thou not give us, to complete
the sacrifice, the goat without horns?''
The priestess gave sign Of assent
The crowd roundabout separated, and
there was revealed child sitting with
its feet bound. The French priest
rushed away in search of assistance in
preventing the unholy rite, but the
authorities on whom he called were
strangely slothful When finally, or
the day following, they arrived at the
place of assembly, they found the
grewsome remains Of sacrifice and a
feast, among them the boiled skull OF
the child.-Marvin Dana in Metropolis
