Montpelier, Sept. 1S.--The repres-
entative election contest in Barre
town in which the right of w f. Fisk
republican, to sit in the legislature is
challenged by William Earle, social
list, has developed into a three corner
ed fight that the House committee on
elections will be called upon to set
tie.
DR.. c. n. Barber the democratic
candidate has filed a claim that he
was elected on the fourth ballot. He
declares that the vote of the Granite
vile precinct should be thrown out
for the fourth ballot because the bal
lot box there was carried to the home
of one of the election officers and was
not kept open the same length OF
time as were those at South Barre
and East Barre. Mr.. Barber led on
the fourth ballot and he claims with
the Graniteville vote thrown out
which consisted largely of Earle
votes, the election was his. He has
engaged r. A. Hoar as counsel and
both he and Candidate Earle will, be
fore the legislature convenes procure
a mass of testimony to lay before the
House committee on elections as soor
as it is appointed and organized

The sky that seemed so dark while
Is blue and bright;
The sun has learned again to smile,
My cares have all been put to flight;
And it was only yesterday
That gladness seemed so far away
That him I enyied who could say
His heart was light?
The world that seemed so dark is fair.

Have taken wings and flown somewhere; /;
The rivulet that seemed so sad
Is singing blithely through the glade;
And I have joy for having made

HARD ON THE EYEsleHT

Looking into the fire, particularly a
coal fire, is very injurious to- the eyes.
The stimulus of fire and heat united
soon destroys the eyes. Looking at
molten iron will soon destroy the sight
Reading in the twilight is injurious
to the eyes, as they are obliged to
make great exertion. Reading or sew
ing with side light Injuries the eyes,
as both eyes should be exposed to an
equal degree of light. The reason is
the sympathy between the eyes is so
great that if the pupil of one eye is
dilated by being kept partially in the
shade the eye that is exposed cannot
contract itself sufficiently for protec-
tion and will ultimately be injured

ton down the leaders in an interesting
struggle by the score of to 3 The con-
test was the most exciting battle Of the
season. and was not decided until the
final out was made in the eighth inning
when Umpire Hughes called the contest
because OF darkness.
1t was a pitchers battle between CLYDE
Richmond and Claude Birch. The Chris
tian twirler started the game in whirl-
wind fashion, but weakened in the final
innings, while his opponent seemed
strong and steady at all times
The Methodists won the game in the
eighth. With one out Birch drew a pass
and Miller singled to right. Brunner
brought the crowd to its feet with
smashing three-base clout.. scoring two.
He was left on third. as the next two
batters were easy outs.
The Christians made a strong bid for
the honors in their half of the eighth, but
and the crowd slowly walked into the
on fly to Sheaffer. Marceron made his
second hit of. the game when he singled
to center. He pilfered second and Daley
drew a pass. Charlie Broome made the
second out when he popped a foul fly on
the third-base line which Sheaffer cap
tured. Lite was sent to bat for Hands,
and he also hit foul fly, which Rogers
got under and squeezed.
This victory puts the Methodists twen-
ty-one points behind the leaders.
