1t is encouraging to learn OF the
splendid part the Vermont militia
played in the army manouyers at Pine
Camp under the command OF Col. D.
Gray Estey, because it means that the
First Regiment is steadily acquiring
first. class efficiency in the practical
knowledge of arms under the patient
efforts of this excellent officer. Per
haps few people in the state realize
at what sacrifice Colonel Estey, with
his pressing business affairs, retains
command OF the regiment after long
service with it in peace and in war.
But he is giving the best that is IN
him to make Vermont's militia force
the equal OF the best volunteer sol
diers and to prevent for this genera
ton, at least, the humilating expert
ences that befell the regiment in the
War with Spain because a mistaken
state policy had not prepared 1t for
actual service.-St. Adams Messen-
ger.
The Vermont regiment of the Ma
tional Guard is one that the state has
good reason to be proud of and no
man is better qualified to speak on
the subject than Frank Green the
editor of the St. Adams Messenger,
who was so long the popular captain
of the st. Adams company. Vermont
should be generous to her soldier
boys. We never know when we may
want their services and when we do
want them the need is great. 1t is
pleasing to every citizen of Benning
ton to know that Company X, which
has just returned from muster made
fine record there and is one of the
best companies of the Vermont regi
| ment.

CAREER OF DEsERTER ROGERS
Pardoned by President Taft After
Second Offence.

Second Onence.
Burlington, Sept. BY order OF
President Taft, Wallace Rogers, de
serter from the 18th cavalry while
stationed at Fort Ethan Allen, has
had his sentence committed This
was Rogers second desertlon from
the post and the second time that he
has been allowed to go without sery-
ing the usual sentence of one or two
years in a government prison.
Rogers gave himself up at the post
a few months ago and gave as his
reason for doing so the fact that he
had inherited a large sum Of money
and could not get II while a fugitive
from Justice. He did not appear at
all worried concerning the sentence
that was staring him in the face and
remarked to a fellow trooper that
everything would come out all right
as he had powerful friends at Wash
ington, and It so proved.
He entered the army for the first
time about two years ago, giving his
home as Chelsea. Mass, and was as
/ signed at once to troop In the llth
/ cavalry at Fort Ethan Allen. His
motives for enlistment were a mys'
terry. as ne showed no aptitude or
| liking for the life. He was always
we'll supplied with money, which he
spent lavlshly and It was said Of
him that he was nephew of the late
II. II. Rogers. the oil magnate These
reports reached the ears of Rogers
but were never denied by him. His
military life was. however. short, and
one night he disappeared, leaving
several articles. amounting In value
to "a considerable sum, behind him.
He was finally placed on the list Of
deserters and after the customary
reward for his capture had been Of
fercd no more was Thought OF him.
About eight months later Rogers
suddenly appeared at o post In Salt
Lake City and gave himself up TO the
military authorities there and right
here strange thing happened. In.
stead OF being court martialed and
sentenced to prison, he was ordered
| back TO duty without penalty and
Uncle Sam paid the expenses from
Salt Lake City TO Fort Ethan Allen
This was done In accordance with
orders from Washington.
For while Rogers was fair sol
der but soon relapsed into his old
habits OF listlessness and few weeks
later disappeared for the second
time and roamed the country at viii
until last May, when he again sur
rendered himself. Upon this occas
ion he was court martialed and giver
a sentence but did not serve II fol
4 reason given above. the Presidenti
pardon. After being released from
the guard house. he left at once fo
his home, leaving behind him crew
OF fellow prisoners, who are wonder
ing what the secret process Is b,
which he enters and leaves the arm,
at will.

NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

my son, boy of five. broke out
with an itching rash. Three doctors
prescribed for him, but he kept getting
worse until we could not dress him any
more. A medical colleges treatment did
no good. He was so bad that it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
OF skin on his whole body that was not
affected He was one mass Of sores.
The bandages used 70 stick to his skin
and In removing them il used to take
the skin of with them. and the screams
from the poor child We're heartbreaking.
Il began to think that he would never
get we'll but after the second applica-
ton of Cuticura Ointment l began to
see signs of Improvement, and with the
third and fourth applications the sores
commenced to dry up Ills skin peeled
of twenty times, but it finally yielded
70 the treatment. Now | can say that
he is entirely cured, and a stronger and
healthier bov you never saw than he
Is to-day, twelve years or more since
the cure was effected. Robert Wattam,

Democrats May Retain Dr. Couden

Washington, Dec. 29.-For several
days friends of the Rev. DR.. Couden,
the blind chaplain of the house of
representatives, have been working in
the interest OF his retention as house
chaplain, when the democrats take
charge of the next congress. Today
It was stated that there is a strong
possibility of DR.. Couden's being re-
tained. DIR. Couden has been chap
lain of the house for the past fifteen
years. He succeeded the Rev. w. Fl.
Milburn of Illinois, also a blind man,
who became chaplain of the senate
and was afterward succeeded by the
Rev. DR.. Everett Edward Hale. The
salary of the chaplains of the senate
and house is only $1,000 a year, and
the duties consist of n prayer at the
opening of each days session. The
only limitation put upon the chaplain
Is that his prayer must be short.
Nevertheless II has been the custom
of chaplans not to say anything
which might be construed to have
a political bias. DR.. Couden is a re-
publican in politics. His blindness
was occasioned by a gunshot wound
received at the battle of Austin,
Miss, in the civil war.

\ luxury TO BE Ill.

New York, Dec. 29.-In sending
out their annual appeals for help to-
day, several of the hospitals and insti-
tutions where the poor sick are treat
ed free of charge quote paragraphs
from the report of Frederick D.
Greene of the Saturday and Sunday
Hospital association which states that
the cost of being i'll has increased
evenly with the cost of living The
daily expense of maintaining a hos
pital patient is almost twice as much
as it was ten years ago. Investiga-
tors found that in 1900 It cost daily
average of S1,17 to care for a pa
tient Today the expense is estimated
at $29S.
In addition to what the other pub
lie institutions hope to raise, the
Saturday and Sunday Hospital asso-
ciation is trying to raise 5000, 900 to
meet the coming years expenses.

FOREIGN MARKETS HIGHER.
Chicago Wheat Trade Forced Upward
With RuIllsh News from Abroad.

Chicago, Dec. 2s.-Ignorng at the
start, the bullsh foreign news wheat
opened unchanged for the December
and May while climbing 3-Sc a
bushel higher for the July. Closing
was IA to Lee higher than yester-
day.
Liverpool was open today and
showed the bulls in control. The
market there opened steady 1-Sd
higher on account Of the limited Of
ferings and the more bullish news
from Argentina as weil as the Euro
pean continent The decrease of g.
1870, 900 bushels in the European vis-
ible supply was rather startling and
probably had more than anything else
to do with holding the bears in check
After the start this market develop
ed considerable strength, although at
no time was trade very heavy.
Pulp Fed Beef
There were quite heavy arrivals of
cattle and sheep in the yards today,
but the market was good. Eleven
loads of cows and steers came for
ward from the pulp" district of Utah
and sold at S5.25 for COWS, 1925 for
bulls and s6.25 for steers. The lat
ter were weighed off cars. which real
ly cuts 25c off the price, as the stock
was sold before being filled
There is an excellent demand for
everything in the livestock market al
this time.
Frank Burke who always comes to
the bat for Kidwell & Caswell when
stuff is really in demand arrived in
from Richmond, Utah, with IL loads
OF cattle
"While the cattle from the pulp
district Of Utah are of fine quality as
well as Of excellent appearance" said
Mr.. Burke to the Journal this morn
ing, "the amount Of stock fed in Utal
is not as great as normally. This Is
due to the smaller beef crop this sea-
son.
However, there is quite lot of cat,
tie on feed there but most OF IL ma!
already been contracted to packer,
and spectators. Kidwell 4 Caswel
have several more shipments to come
forward from there, The lot that
brought forward today was fed or
cracked corn as well as pulp and was
therefore in excellent shape
practically all the cattle from the
Utah pulp fields will come west this
year. AS a usual rule the shlpmenti
are made to the east and that was thu
case last season. The few cattle IL
the pulp districts not contracted vii
be held because feeders believe they
will get more money for March-Apri
sale and are therefore prepared t
hold until that time.
Cattle are scarce elsewhere"
Eight loads of yearling wethers anC
lambs arrived in from Corvallis ant
were sold by one party at a flat pric,
