WOmen'S March Meeting.
St. JOhnSbury Ladies who Visited
Europe Last Summer Tell the
Club of Sights They Saw.

The March meeting of the St. Johns
bury Woman's Club was held at Pythian
hall Monday evening. A delightful
program was given by the travel COM
mittee of which Mrs. Corwin F. Palmer
is chairman. Mrs. Mackinnon in
troduced Mrs. Palmer and she presented
the speakers who were the St. Johnsbury
people who visited Europe last summer.
The first was Miss Amy B. Drake and
with her the audience, which was very
large one, visited the castles of Sterling,
Edinburg, Warwick, Kenilworth, Heidel-
burg and Chillon. It was a most in
teresting journey as depicted by Miss
Drake and the stereOpt1con views OF the
castles visitedawere beautiful.
Miss Edith M. Nichols read paper on
the Twelve Great Paintings of the
World and their Painters" OF these
twelve pain tings which have been select
ed by some of those in authority as
greatest, ten were seen by Mr. Palmer's
party. AS the pictures were thrown on
the screen they were described and the
reasons for considering them great
explained by Miss Nichols. The twelve
pictures are: The Descent from the Cross.
The Night Watch, The Last Supper, The
Assumption of the Virgin, The Last
Communion of St. Jerome, The Trans
fguration, Aurora, The Immaculate
Conception, Holy Night and the Sistine
Madonna.
Miss katherine Bingham conducted a
pilgrimage to some of the most famous
Cathedrals of Europe. Her paper was
beautifully illustrated and her audience
was given an unusual opportunity to
contrast and compare the different
cathedrals. Those described were Glas-
Cow, Chester. st. Paul's at London,
Canterbury, Antwerp, Cologne. Milan,
Venice, Florence, Rome, Pisa and Paris.
On account of the length OF the
program Supt. c. F. Palmer asked to be
excused from his talk on 'Some Literary
Shrines.'' The stereopticon was in
charge of A. S. Haskins. Before the
program began the Academy Mandolin
Club played very pleasingly and
responded to the encore which the
applause demanded.

Swiss Brown Contest.
Three Contestants Over the 10000
Mark and Only sci Votes Apart.
Cook First, McCuaig Second,
and Grant Third.

The great contest for the Swiss Brown
heifer has less than month to go, now
and the condition at the close of count
ing at three o'clock last Monday after
noon indicates pretty and most excit-
ing finish. Three contestants have pass
ed the 10000 mark and are separated
by only SCI votes. These three men are
separated now as follows:-Cook has
146 more votes than McCuaig and Nc
Cuaig has AS more votes than Grant.
The greatest gain of the week was made
by McCuaig who gained 2,816 votes,
Cook gained 2,261 and Grant 361. The
other large gain of the week was by
Lang, who gained 74O.
The standing this week was affected
somewhat by the failure of some to get
their votes in before three O'Clock Monday
afternoon. Please remember this in the
future, also that no votes on Jobs are
counted until the jobs have been paid for.
That is the rule for all and no matter how
good ones credit is cash is the only thing
that makes votes count.

and surrendered himself to Sheriff
Smith.
He had grown tired of the game of
hiding out, and went up to the bar of
justice in the district court, and paid
the penalty of his ill-advised action.
He was fined S250. At the time Of
Scott's troubles, he was convicted of
assault with a deadly weapon. and was
released a few days previous on $500
bail. He never appeared for sentence.
and his bondsmen made the deficiency
good. each contributing the sum Of
$3.50.
Scott labored under a misunder-
standing OF his case. 1t Is said. and
was evidently ill-advised in conduct
during that time. The bond his sure
ties advanced. was made good later.

Texas is also displaying uncommon
interest just now in the eighteenth

have a large attendance at what 1t is
hoped viii be the N ost successful ses-
sions OF this great D.. ganization.
NJ. !. Swinehart. secretary Of the
Commercial club of Peeos and presi-
dent OF the Texas irrigation congress,
is one Of the most active Of the Texans
and Is in constant correspondence with
the congress officials. He q other
Texans are also greatly inte lsted in

tion with the irrigation congress ses-
ssons.
George F. Burgess Of fl Paso. who
is always one OF the leaders in the

sessions from there Mayor Felix
Martinez. J. A. Smith and other active
men from that important Texas city,
are also making extensive plans for
representation, which viii probably
as usual. take on form OF a special
train. with band and great display.
In response to a recent request
from Secretary Arthur Hooker oil the
national irrigation congress, Governor
Campbell has appointed a strong adj
visory committee of five members TO
keep In touch with the congress head
quarters and extract the greatest good
cooperation.
The members OF this committee are:
Avery Turner. Amarillo, general
superintendent of the Santa Fe road.

sress is w. l.. Sargent. Fort Worth.

lively interest IN the work of prepara-
for the eighteenth congress.
A low rate has been recently made
~ the Santa Fe road from FL Paso,
.cnsisting one fare plus 50 for the
ound trip, which will greatly stimu-
the attendance from that section
# the state. Doubtless other roads
viii make similarly attractive rates.
