A NEW COMET.
Heavenly Visitor Flying Through
Space Il Million Miles Minute.

A new comet which is flying
through space at the rate of many
million miles a minute may be seen
by the naked eye just after sunset
any evening on the southwest hori-
zon, according to Edward Fairfax
Naulty, an astronomer, who has con-
firmed the discovery Of the comet on
Monday by Prof. w. r. Brooks, Of
Hobart College, Geneva, n. Y.
Mr.. Naulty says the new comet is
speeding toward the sun and should
be visible for a number Of days yet.
Because of the direction of the
comets flight and the relative posi-
ton of the earth, its head is not Wis
ible, but Mr.. Naulty and Prof. Brooks
say that its tail, which is several mil
lion miles in length, can be clearly
detected.
The astronomers agree that there
is no danger of a collision with the
earth

"DONT MENTION IT"
(Poultney Journal.)


One of the most vexations prob
lens which confronts the editor of a
country paper is the number OF
hold-ups he is subjected to by par
ties who wish their names withheld
from publication in connection with
some affair, be it meritorious or not,
and who other times feel aggrieved
if they are not mentioned among
those who attended a missionary
tea, or the like. The mission of a
weekly is to publish the news, not
to withhold it; and when some item
is withheld to satisfy the within of
some person, the subscriber feels
justified in finding all kinds of fault
with the editor because he doesn't
get the news, because he doesn't
get about (even where he isn't in
vited) and give a big write-up of
some affair which he is requested to
keep mum about. Not but a short
time ago right here in the village a
pretty little affair was held, and the
hostess, so modest, of course, asked
as a personal favor that nothing be
said about it. The affair was re-
ported in the nearby dailies and
readers wondered why The Journal
had nothing in. No wonder then
that we have had to make new reso-I
buttons along this line. We acknow-
ledge that it is much easier to say to |
Mrs. A. or Miss b.. when she comes /
tripping into the Office and whispers |
so sweetly that she prefer nothing /
said about so and so. that her wish 1
will be gratiied; but after she has
gone to ask ourselves if it is fair
10 the readers to suppress such
news. Nay, nav. it is
not, and we only ohpe that our
wishes in this respect can be graft
led.

ARE COUNTY ROADS TOO

(St. Adams Messenger.)

NOU. AlDdllS M0SoGHScI.
FA Are our country roads I'M

record the other day in a speech
before the convention of the Iowa
Implement Dealers Association in
favor of returning to the farmers of
the State about 100000 acres of
land on either side of country roads.
owe are putting aside &c feet
for roads where only 20 feet is used

instead of letting the land be idle all
but 35 feet should be given back to
the people from whom it was taken,
and let them cultivate it.

committed myself on this unused
land question: continued Governor

CHOIR UNION.

The Christmas meeting of the
Connecticut Valley Choir Union was
held at Haverill. N. H. on Dec. 8.
Owing to sickness, and other
causes the attendance was smaller
than usual, only about thirty-fve
or forty of the G, V. c. U. members
being present.
The program was pleasing one.
All the choruses were appropriate
FOR the Christmas time and under
the direction of Prof Charles Morse
of Dartmouth College, the various
numbers we're rendered in a way
most enjoyable to the audience as
sembled for the evening concert.
Prof. Morse, at rehearsal and
concert, conducts with painstaking,
patient persistency, with accuracy,
and with an ever present apprecia-
ton of the theme which the music
is intended to convey.
The solo-"My Redeemer and my
Lord comparatively which was
sung by Mrs. Adine Hale Farwell
Of Wells River, was most enjoyable.
Mrs Farwell has a contralto voice
of rich quality and good range
Her Interpretation of the late COM
poser's beautiful message was not
only artistic, but full of dignity and
impressivness.
Mr.. Henry NJ. Wells of Dartmouth
Colleg0 contributed two violin solos
to the evenings program, and each
time won the greatest applause
which an artist can get, the respon-
sive unity of audience and perform
er. From the time the bow first
touched the strings until the last
sweet notes had died away, the
listening audience was wropped in
the spell of the music. Mr.. Wells
first number was Greig's Spring,
after which he responded to hearty
encore. His last number was Refs
"Adagio."
During the afternoon rehearsal a
telegram of congratulation and good
wishes to both conductor and chorus
was received from the Rev. H. j.
Kilbourn of Everett, Mass. While
pastor of the Congregation Church

OLD CONSTITUTION HOUSE.
(Rnrn rHir,nnc, \


1t is pleasing to note thai the
efforts of the rejuvenated Windsor
Journal have been turned, among
other things, toward a preservation
of the old Constitution House, thus
lending a local influence to assist
the efforts which various members
of the Vermont press have been
putting forth for several years. The
house is, as the contemporary says,
one of the most precious relics in
Vermont; yet it stands to-day neg
lected and disintegrating, after l25
years of history. 1t was in this
building that a committee was
appointed to draft a constitution
for the infant State, and it was there
during the same year of 1777 that
the assembled delegates accepted
the draft of the constitution, as
prepared by their committee.
Strange, indeed, it is that efforts
have not been made to preserve
this structure in its original lines.
either by state or local organiza-
tiOns.
If the people of Windsor realized
the fact, they have good reason,
aside from their veneration for
historical things, to prompt them
to preserve the Constitution House.
They might transform its antiquity
into commercial value at a com
paratively slight outlay. If the
building were to be renovated
enough to make visit to it not
by disagreeable features, /
and if, perhaps, a caretaker were
placed in charge of-the building to
furnish interesting data TO visitors. |
there is no doubt that a great many |
people would be attracted to Wind |
scr simply TO inspect the venerable |
Then. a little iudicious |
advertising of the attraction would /
serve to interest tourists not only
from Vermont. but from all sections
Of New England and New York;
and Windsor, during the summer
might reap a golden har-
vest therefrom. 1t Is unfortunate
that one must appeal to the com
mercial instincts of a people to
preserve such a treasure of antiquity
rs the Constitution House, but bet
.er that way than not at all. ]
