Gen. Fred Grant reviewed the line
Of march OF more than ten thousand
Confederate veterans at Memphis yes
terday. and when the grizzled old war
rior's caught sight Of the son Of the
man TO whom they surrendered at Ap-
pomattix the rebel yell that was let
out Jared the Mississippi river Gen.
Grant was given an ovation perhaps
never accorded any one. The kind
feeling thus exhibited on both sides
indicates beyond question the patriot
ism of the American people. the most
aggressive and withall the greatest
citizenship IN the world The remnant
OF that powerful army Of the south
with white hair. but erect form under
the weight OF years was an inspiring
sight worth crossing the continent to
see. Forty-four years ago these men
we're the flower Of this republic. and
when defeated turned again as patriot
ic citizens to rebuilding their homes
and recouping their lost fortunes. A
few more years and the line OF gray
heads will vanish forever The num-
Der OF empty gray sleeves is becoming
painfully small but the spirit ol the
men is still an inspiration to the
whole country. north and south

appears that a good number a the

the local agencies. Mr. Stone would
not make an estimate OF the probable
number Of local agencies that VIII be
re-established. but stated that indica-
tlons are that there viii be many open

The governors proclamation makes
no requirements as to the number Of
slgners that will be required to Sc

"The state agency officials viii have

AS to the number of signers he
would require before a local agency
could be reopened, Mr Stone said that
NO specific number will be required.
Excepting that there must be enough
petitioners Of the best class OF citi-
zens to convince the agency authori-
ties that the people really want the

Mr. Stone stated that no decision

agency superintendent. however, will
seek to retain the services of the old

saries are to be reopened.
Superintendent Stone is receiving a
large number Of bonds from druggists

Pearl Harhor.

The convention of 1884 between the United States and the king of the Hawaiian islands granted to the Unit ed States "the exclusive right to enter the harbor of Pearl river. in the is- land of Oahu, ands to establish and maintain there a coaling and repair station for the use of vessels of the United States. and to that end the United States may improve the en- trance to said harbor and do al lother things needful to the purpose afore- said" Even if the annexation of Ha- waii had not come, Pearl Harbor would have been retained for naval purposes by the American govern ment with full power to fortify and improve it as the necessities of our navy might demand. Despite the fact that the harbor has been under Amer ican control for a quarter of a cen tury, little has been done toward de- veloping it's possibilities as a naval base, and the work now before our army engineers is of great magnitude. The importance of Hawaii as a cen tral point for the purpose to which Pearl Harbor is to be devoted is am other result of the world cruise of the battleship fleet, whose influence upon the policies of this nation seems only beginning to be felt. The mass ing of those sixteen ships in the Pa cific gave a foretaste of what may happen when the ithmian canal shall afford rapid communication by water between the oceans. and the need of a powerful station midway across the Pacific was a strong object lesson in the necessity of such a base as has now been decided upon.-Army and Navy Journal

DIR. ROWLAND LECTURES
 ON PURE MILK.
Address Heard With Much Interest by
 Norwich Grange.

Norwich grange, No. 1T2, Patrons of Husbandry, had one of it's most inter- esting meetings Wednesday evening in Pythian hall, when talk on Pure Milk, illustrated with the stereopticon, was given by Dr. George T. Rowland. He opened his lecture by explaining by charts the different kinds of milk pas teurized, inspected and certified, also showing by charts the chemical com position of milk of different animals. and the different legal standards of milk in different cities of the United States. as to total solids allowed, fatty matter, and number of bacteria per cubic centimeter.
 Dr. Rowland stated that the city of Washington, D. C., had been the leader number of years ago in looking out for the purity of its milk supply, but that now Norwich and Connecticut compared very favorably with the reg ulations of other places. He had pla- cards for distribution showing the Connecticut milk law as passed by the legislature of 1907.
 The views which Dr. Rowland used showed conditions as he found them in Virginia and Maryland stables when he was health officer of Washington, D. C., for several years, and the work of Investigating the milk supply was under way. Besides these he showed slides containing drops of milk in fested with different bacteria, such as tuberculosis, typhus and others.
 Cleanliness was shown to be one of the prime requisites for a pure milk supply, especially for guarding against the tuberculosis bacillus, as it was told that the udder was the last part to be affected, but that the excrement was full of the bacilli and the most fruitful way for the milk to become infected was by the dirt brushing off the cows Hanks into the milkpail dur ing milking.
 The lantern was operated by Allen Latham, and at the close of the lecture Dr. Rowland was accorded a hearty vote of thanks on motion of H. F. Palmer. The evening ended with an oyster chowder supper, with doughnuts and coffee, rendered the grange by the doctor. The tables were spread in the banquet hall and all present showed their appreciation of the doctors hos pitality

PRIZE PACKAGE ;.
 HAD EARLY OPENING.
Several Quarts of Whiskey Broken as Carriers Fell on Slippery Walks.

The light snowfall on Wednesday evening made treacherous walking, and jags in particular. found it hard keep ing an even keel. A gallon jug. con- tents and all. lies in the gutter at BuswelPs corner. having been broken so that it leaked and was abandoned. As the jug got rid of its jag it was cast into the gutter. but the brand or quality of the contents could not be ascertained. Many looked on with un- appeased thirst at this probable Christ mas treat flowing as free as water.
 Slippery pavements caused two more to fall and lose a quart each at Young's corner while another fell in front of the Methodist church and sac- rificed another prize package, for which it was a hard night.
 The snow drove eighteen to seek lodg- ings at police headquarters. One young man of p years came from Dal- las, Tex, and was dressed to receive the climate of that state rather than Connecticut. One lodger after getting his name on the blotter asked Captain Linton with considerable confidence what the charge would be. After the genial captain had assured him that such as he were accommodated free of charge he revealed the fact that he had no bank account and in reality no funds in his clothes.

Vermont and Summer Hotels

An interesting sidelight on the ques- tion of summer hotels in Vermont is shed by the Barre Times in the fol- lowing pointed paragraph:
 "The new s500,000 summer hotel at Dixville Notch, N. H., came very near being in Vermont, anyway"
 r Did you stop to wonder or try to explain how it happened that this big summer hotel was located on the east side of the Connecticut river instead of on the west side? Why should the west side of the Connecticut be dotte with big summer hotels while the Green Mountain state Is almost barren fthese summer plants? Is 1t our lack of scenery or our climate, Or is n some policy of ours that is inimieal 10 summer hotel projects In Vermont?
 These are not idle questions. They involve consideration which should be taken into account and carefully ana lyzed if We are to successfully solve the problem in connection with the development of Vermont as a summer resort; and until we have reached a solution thereof we must seek in vain to rival the Granite state.-Burlington Free Press

StanIey's Ways.

Before I met Henry NJ. Stanley. I had talked with men who had been under him in his African expeditions and all they told me about him was more or less appalling. He was not inhuman, but in desperate straits he speared neither man nor beast, nor would he defer to the counsel or the pleas of others or have any patience with less than instant and unquestion- ing obedience to his orders under all circumstances. He would not forbear under arguments or excuses or relax his severity by any familiarity or pleasantries even when his object had been gained. He was both despot and martinet; stern. exacting, uncompro- missing, silent, humorless, inscrutable, Cromwellian.
 T cannot say we loved him." one of his lieutenants said to me. I've were all afraid of him, butawe all be- lieved in him. When he hadn't his rifle in hand he had his Bible, and no matter where our camp was or how long and distressing our march had been, he never missed his bath and shave in the morning. g."-William II.
