STRANGER THAN FICTION.
Woman Hears From Her Father
Supposed to be Murdered
Thirty Years AGO.

From letter received last week by
Mr.. Morrison Collins, of this place, from
his daughter, Mrs. Ida Duncan, of Tor
rington, Wyoming, it is learned that
Mrs. J. T. Sullivan, also of the vicinity
of Torrington, recently received two
letters and photographs from her father,
Mr.. Frank West, who disappeared about
thirty years ago from st. Joseph, Mo-,
where the family were residing at the
time and no tidings have since been re-
ceived from him by his family or friends.
He was at the time engaged in conduct
ing meat market in st. Joe and after
dinner one day he mounted his horse to-
ride to the country after stock. His
riderless horse returned home that
evening and all efforts to find Or locate
the missing man were in vain. After
the disappearance of her husband, Mrs.
West, who was sister Of the late Sol
Litton, moved here with her children
where she made her home until her
death which occurred number of years
ago. The letters received by Mrs. Sui
Ivan we're mailed and dated at Little
Rock, Ark, but whether they gave any
account of his life or doings since his
disappearance, we are not informed.
Mr.. West was soldier in the Union
army during the Civil War and must
now be quite aged.--Lineville Tribune.

Boards Of Trade,

A State news item is to the effect that
1.-THE Rutland Improvement League,
which is in effect a board of trade, is
talking of holding a banquet to renew
popular interest in the organization"
A board of trade, improvement league,
or other similar organization, rightly
conducted, is, beyond question, of vast
good to any community, but all too
many of them confine their efforts to
getting together once or twice during the
year, holding a banquet, filling them
selves with enthusiasm as well as with
the eatables provided for the inner man,
but it is a deplorable fact that the en-
thusiasm soon ooZes out and nothing
more is done until it is time for the next
banquet. Not all boards of trade are of
this variety, however, for in many towns
these organizations have proved power
of good in securing new industries and
in other ways working for the good of
the community.
Every town in Vermont should have
an organization of this character, one
which will not confine its efforts to ban
quets, but one whose members will get
out and hustle. In this way they bene-
fit not only the town or city in which
they live, but themselves as well This
applies to Middlebury as well as to any
other place and now is a good time to
start, when the indications are for a
return of prosperity throughout YER
mont.
A little concerted action on the part
of the business men might result in gain
ing more manufacturing industries,
which means more money in circulation,
an increase in population and more pros
porous times for all.
This is a good subject to consider.

The Sugar, of Course.

Members of the United States Senate
were well treated few days ago SEN
ator Page of Vermont distributed among
them liberal samples of choice maple
sugar and they liked it. The same day IA
Kentucky senator presented each mem
Der of the Senate with bottle of fam
GUS brand of whiskey from his state and
this, also, they liked. 1t is generally
agreed that each gift was received with
much pleasure but discussion appears to
be still in order as to which one caused
the most pleasure -Lyndonville Journal.
From our point of view there is no
chance for discussion. Those senators
who are wont to indulge in liquid re-
freshments find it easy enough to pro-
cure them at any time, but the times are
few and far between when they are able
to obtain pure Vermont maple sugar.
Sen. Pages gift was by far the best and
probably more appreciated.

Still We Send Out Missionaries

The Mortified News is responsible for
the following:
"a pastor at Bellows Falls reports
finding within three miles of that village
"a boy IS years of age who had never
heard a prayer offered did not know
what prayer meant, and had never heard
the name of Jesus Christ More mis-
siOnaries should be sent into darker
Windham county. The News has no
doubt, too, that in almost any part of
the state can be found similar cases :;
exceptional cases of course, but in eX-
istence nevertheless, and greatly to be
regretted"
And yet we take bright and energetic
young minister from his parish in Dor
set, right over the line from Windham
county, and send him clear to the other
side of the world to be slaughtered by
the unspeakable Turk, while we allow
our own children to grow up in ignor-
ance and barbarism. What consistency

The Free Press is inclined to take the
same view of bobcats that David Harum
did of fleas on a dog. David philosophical
that reasonable amount of tleas were a
good thing for dog. They kept him
from brooding over his misfortune in
having been born a dog Likewise our
friends of the Free Press see great adj
vertising possibilities and consequently
large increase in the summer visitor in
dustry from the multiplication of the
bobcat product. Sportsmen will unhesi-
tatingly endorse the position of the Free
Press as to the bobcat outfit, but the
sweet young things who weep with sym
pathy at the sight and thought of the
martyred fishwOrms and climb apple
trees at the approach of the old rooster
will not be melted to visit Vermont by
the bobcat argument. Finally, if bob
cats are good and salutary thing, put
them on the free list. If not, let them
come in under heavy ad valorum duty.
For the present we incline to support
the Ludlow theory of bobcats, which is
that they are menace to our infant in
dustries. -Hardwick Gazette.
