SUCCESSFUL CELEBRATION
Friday Proved Grand
Success.

Friday morning dawned with clear
sky, and early in the day saw teams
coming from all points to the celebra-
tion of "Old Home Week." all in
tent on enjoying the gala day, and 1t
was one of the most orderly crowds
the writer ever saw on such an occa-
sion. The merchants and Epworth
League society erected booths at ad-
vantageous places for the serving of ice
cream, fruit, popcorn ETC., and all
did thriving business. The ladies
of the Congregational church served
dinner in Court house hall and the ap-
plicants were so many that several
were turned away. Promptly at 10
O'Clock the baseball game between
the fats and the leans of the town
took place and resulted in a score of
10 to 16 in favor of the fats. Directly
after the ball game the running race
was run which consisted of one fourth
mile and was won by Robert Beers of
Boston. In the mean time the 1ras-
burg band under the leadership of
Prof. Bullard of Orleans furnished ex-
cellent music. The afternoon sports
were scheduled to begin at 80 but
were somewhat delayed. The first of
these events was the automobile pa
rade, in which several from out of
town took part, w. II. Winget win
ming first prize, his auto being beauti-
fully draped in green and white and
trimmed with goldenrod. Charles
Smith of Albany won second prize and
R. M. Cowles of Albany third. Last
but not least in this parade came
DR.. P. c. Templeton, with his little
daughter Elizabeth, two years of age
with her hands on the wheel, stopping
now and then to wave to the audience,
winning the applause of all present.
While this was not in the line of prizes
purse of S.. was quickly secured
among the crowd for the little one.
Following this, the crowd was called
together at the bandstand, then Hon.
Fl. H. Somers introduced the speakers
of the day. Rev. G. A. Adams being
the first to speak, pleasantly well
coined the people to the celebration.
Rev. E. E. Wells then spoke. NJ. NJ.
Taplin Of Orleans, second nominee for
senator and a former Irasburg man
then spoke Loyalty of his home town
and was cheered to an echo by the
crowd of nearly 1000. A baseball
game then took place and it was as
fine game as any ever seen on the
common. The contest was between
the Irasburg team and the Orleans
high school team and was closely
contested game. The score stood Il
to II at the finish in favor of the
Irasburg team. The game though not
entirely errorless gave great satisfac
tion to the large crowd that had gath.
cred in anticipation of the sport. Ir
the evening a good display of fire
works was set off on the common anC
many of the large number of people
stayed to enjoy them.

CANDIDATES GET BUSY
Candidates for Barton Town Represent
ative Make Announcements
and Start Canvass.

Some time ago the Monitor spoke of
the candidacy of E. w. Barron and J.
w. Murkland for Barton's represent
ative, but not until very recently has
any perceptible move been made to Sc
cure the required votes to "get there"
with. The latter part of last week,
G. E. Hamblet made it known that
he would be candidate also. A res
Olute and thorough campaign will be
made by all three and while we look
for large vote and much interest, the
parties seem determined to have the
canvass clean, good natured, and ex-
press a spirit of ''best wishes to the
winner" No caucus will be held as
certificates of nomination have been
filed by the three men.
Seldom have three such representa-
tive and popular men come up for this
office at the same time, and a choice
by many voters is little difficult to
make. There is no discounting the
qualifications of any Of them and the
Monitor feels that what the Duke of
Wellington said, ''There is no mis-
take; there has been no mistake: and
there shall be no mistake; )" applies in
this case pretty well.
Mr.. MURKLAND'S STATEMENT
am surprised to learn the number
of voters in town who do not know
that | am a candidate for representa-
tive to the Vermont legislature from
Barton and take this means to notify
all that am a candidate, that l have
been lifelong republican and that !
would feel honored and be highly
pleased should the voters of Barton
and Orleans see fit to elect me to that
trust.
J. w. Murkland.
Mr.. BARRON'S~ STATEMENT
/ have entered the field as a candi-
date for representative from the town
OF Barton to the general assembly at
montpelier. l earnestly request the
support of my fellow townsmen, with
whom my official and business rela-
tlons during the twenty-five years OF
my life in Barton have been very
| pleasant
Should succeed in my endeavors
promise to faithfully perform the du
ties of that high office by supporting
the various measures conducive to the
best interests Of the state and my
town.

DUST STORM SWOOPS
down ON PENDL{T0N

Not since the big storm of five years
ago has Pendleton experienced a dust
storm of the proportions of the one
which swept across this section of
eastern Oregon and southeastern
Washington last evening. Fortunate
ly the dust was not accompanied by
as heavy a wind as has accompanied
some of the storms of the past and
for that reason less than the usual
amount of damage was sustained.
The storm arrived in Pendleton
about an hour before dusk. The cloud
of dust was so heavy that the skies
We're Immediately overcast and chick
ems started for their roosts thinking
that darkness had come. Lamps had
to be lighted and then to add to the
confusion the lights went off and on
intermttently while the storm lasted.
No windows were broken, no avn
ings dismantled, no wheat shattered
out and in fact about all the damage
sustained was to the dispositions Of
careful housewives.

QUEEN ALEXANDRA KEEPS
HER HOUSEHOLD BUSY

London.-For the fourth time
Queen Alexandra has changed her
plans, and the members Of her house
hold are becoming distracted at the
alterations which every day seems to
bring forth. Severai of the members
of the household are badly in want
of holiday, but as all the usual rou-
tine has been dislocated no one can
tell when his or her turn will come
for a rest.
The whole establishment is, how
ever, profoundly grateful for the de-
parture of the Dowager Empress
Marie of Russia, whose autocratic
methods are not at all in accordance
with those ruling in English court
circles. It was the empress who urg-
ed her sister to keep the royal stand
ard floating over Buckingham palace
in defiance of custom. A bad attack
Of lumbago kept the empress in bed
a few days at the palace before she
left for Denmark, and during that
period the household enjoyed COM
parative peace.
Queen Alexandra's present plans
are to stay on in Scotland at Mar
Lodge, the residence of her daughter,
the Duchess of Fife, for the next two
months instead Of going to Denmark.
The health of Princess Victoria is
mainly responsible for this decision.
The princess Is taking cure at Har-
rowgate in the company Of the Grand
Duchess Michaelovitch of Russia.
The two princesses go down to the
rnval m in a motor
morning at o'clock and drink the
nasty sulphur waters. They adhere
very closely to the rules of the cure,
and Princess Victoria, who Is subject
to serious fits Of depression, declines
to see any one but her ladies in wait
ing. She will join her mother in Scot
land at the end of the cure and will
later on visit Queen Maud of Norway.
By the way, the English "cures" are
doing wonderfully we'll this season.
Many members of society who used
to flock to Hamburg and then to Ma
rienbad have suddenly discovered that
the home cures are even more bene-
ficial. The result is that. the hotels
at Harrowgate, Bath, Woodhall, Spa,
Strathpeffer, Buxto and Llandridod
Wells are rapidly filling UP and Ma
rienbad will attract only the old ha-
bitues who went there ,ong before the
late king made it the fashion.
1t is well known that King George
intends to exert all his influence to-
ward keeping Englishmen and Eng
lismwomen in their own country as
much as possible in the holiday sea-
son, and he is equally desirous that
the beauty spots in Ireland should be
made better known to the tourists. 1t
is certain hat more Englishmen are
visiting Ireland this season than ever
before.
