Public sentiment has decided that
the completion Of the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall be celebrated with q
great International Exposition in
which all the nations of the world
may participate; and the question of
where this Exposition is to be held
will be settled by Congress at its ap-
preaching session.
New Orleans and San Francisco
are ~contesting for the honor Of hold
Ing this Exposition. and both cities
have guaranteed immense sums of
money as an evidence Of their ability
to finance so great an enterprise.
An Exposition worthy Of tho term

vocational movement. Its success a.
such, however. will depend entirely
upon the percentage Of our popula-
tion who can secure its educational
advantages, this in turn, depends up
on its location. as the time in travel

the cost in railroad and Pullman
fares, are the most important factors.
Considering these matters, New

cal Point" for this Panama EXPOSE.
ton, seem to be fully substantiated
by the following facts
New Orleans is 500 miles from the
center Of population in the United
States. San Francisco is $500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within a radius Of 500 miles from
New Orleans there are IT, 0 900
people. Within the same radius from
San Francisco there are only 1000. 900.
Within a radius Of 1000 miles from
New Orleans, there are IS, 600, 900.
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 5000, 900.
At an average Of 900 miles from
New Orleans, there are 10 Of u
principal cities with a combined
population Of 10000, 900. Averaging
900 miles from San Francisco there
are only 8 large cities, with a COM
bined population Of just 1000, 900.
The average distance of all these
cities to New Orleans is 1872 miles,
to San Francisco 2,4O7 miles.
Over Is per cent. Of the people OF
the United States could go to an

MADE HIS FRIENDS UNEASY.
Disappearance of Almon c. Downing,
Well-Known Barre Man.

Relatives and neighbors Of Almon G.
Downing, farmer residing on Prospect
street, near the Berlin line, are busy to-
day in tracing the whereabouts of the
man after his leaving home yesterday
morning ostensibly for the purpose of
visiting sisser III Plainfeld Mr..
Downing Is a retired farmer, who has
been living with brother for some time
past. Last Sunday he suffered a slight
paralytic shock. but seemed 10 be ON the
road to recovery, although at times it
vas thought that lie acted little queer
ly. lie was confined to the house for
short time only and up until yester-
day he had enjoyed his usual freedom
around the house.
Yesterday morning, however. he ex-
pressed desire to visit his sister in
Plainfeld. Packing small valise, he
secured team from the barn and set
out for this city. Immediately on ar
irving mere, it is thought that he went
to Holt's barber shop where he was re-
lieyed Of a heavy beard which he had
been in the habit Of wearing. and also
ordered haircut When the work was
finished, Mr. Downing left tine shop, and
walked about the street for some time
thereafter. as he was reported as being
seen by several different persons during
the early afternoon
This morning a message was received
at the Downing home saying that the
man had not arrived in Plainfeld The
news alarmed his relatives, who institut-
ed a search for him at once, Telephone
messages to all Of the surrounding towns
where the missing man has relatives, or
is known, failed to reveal any new
clues. Previous to his departure, Down
ing had complained Of pains in his left
ann and on several occasions acted rath-
or strangely. 1t was thought, however,
that a change Of surroundings might
prove beneficial to the man, SO he was
allowed to 90 to Plainfeld, and was Civ
en- the use Of team for that purpose
Downing is 65 years old. On account
of his age it is feared that SOME accident
may have befallen him, or that posi-
bly, he is wandering in the woods some
where. 1t is understood that search
ing party will be sent out from this city
il some knowledge of his present wnere-
abouts is not obtained in the near fu-
ture.

about the Caledonia county good roads

over any highway outside OF Vermont,
they came home with no idea of what
a really good, up-to-date road was like
As a matter Of fact the route was over

NJ. NJ. Wilson Of Randolph, Mrs q M.
Winslow Of Brandon, Il. M. Goddard OF
Montpelier and Miss Fannie b. Fletcher
of Proctorsville. Miss Frances Hobart
OF Cambridge is secretary.
The report emphasizes the value of
the annual appropriation Of $1,000 pro-
vided by the last general assembly, by
which in the year 1909 3S towns were
provided with collections of books cost
ing from $50 TO $35 each During the
present year SO applications for annual
aid have been received Of which the

tied amount at its disposal, to help but

Bridgeport, Charlestown, Glover, Plym-
outn, Richmond and Whiting, Lowell

"TIM" sHEEDY ARRESTED.
Notorious Crook Put Up Big Fight At
Troy, N. Y.

Troy. n. Y, Oct l4.-"Tim" Sheedy,
tie notorious burglar and crook, who has
spent half mis- life in prison and who es-
capped two months ago from the Hart
ford, Conn, jail with 35 years sen
tence hanging over his head, was cap
tured in this city last night about 1920
o'clock while he was in the act of effect
ing an entrance into the residence of a
wealthy family.
Two patrolmen, while passing the
home of John l.. Russell on First street,
heard suspicious noise in an area be-
tween the Russell house and the resi-
dence adjoining. They made an inyesti-
cation and found a man crouching be-
meath window. They arrested him and
after a hard fight, in which he attempted
to shoot the policemen, took him to the
station house, where the police discoy-
cred the identity Of their prisoner. Up
on being addressed as Sheedy, he adj
mitted mis- identity, and was locked up
A 38-calibre revolver, fully loaded, and
burglars jimmy were found on him.
Sheedy, it seems, has been in this vi
entity for several days His home is in
Waterville, opposite this city. The po-
lice, however, had no inkling Of his pres
ence here, as Sheedy has been keeping
cut Of sight. The authorities at Hart
ford will be informed OF his capture at
once
In selecting the Russell house at the
place for his operations, Sheedy showed
his acquaintance with the city and its
residents, as this family is one of the
wealthiest in Troy. A number of bur
glaries have been committed in this city
during the past three weeks and the po-
lice are inclined to believe that Sheedy
is responsible for some Of them,
in an interview in his cell Sheedy said
that he was not guilty Of the crime with
which ne was charged in New Haven
and added: "The police are bound to
make criminal of me and l might as
well be one"

The time viii come when we shall
know how TO refresh ourselves by mem
tai change, by mental antidotes of the
things that have weoried us or yexed
us, by holding the mental attitude which
will neutralize the thought enemies that
have thrown our bodies into confusion
All diseases and sieknesses of what
ever kind are the outpicturing Of some
form of discord 1t the mind is kept as
happy as possible, il is difficult for dis
cord to get foothold in the body. A
happy mind is the best possible nealth

For centuries mans happiness was
looked upon by many earnest, thinking
