Holmes. of New York, who' at d meeting the other night, declared in thunderous tones: The time has come when the North must do it's duty and save the South again. The negro now, more than ever, IS entitled to his freedom. and a battle for his liberty must be fought over again with the SOuth!"
 Here's Riddicks duty. plain; and. seeing it. he ought to do it. Instead of passing resolutions disclaiming Rid dicks sentiment. the Norfolk city council ought to have extended an invitation to pr. Holmes to come to Norfolk and fight the battle over again with Riddick.- Holmes wants South ern gore, and Riddick is panting for Northern blood. What more proper than that these two asinine mis- representatives be turned loose in a ring together, if for no other purpose than to see which really has the long, est ears.-Chattanooga Times.

THINKS HE'S A HUMORIST

J. Lindley Green has reconsidered and concluded not to be candidate for congress. In letter addressed to the Seward Gateway, he says:
 "To the Editor:-I desire to inform you that I must decline to allow my name to be used as possible candidate for delegate to congress I am frank to confess that in view of the fact that Alaska has elected two jokes and one would-be gladiator as delegates to congress, though there might be a show for me. But my friends inform me that I am not gladiator, nor am a sufficient joke to land the plum, and that the people will probably want a real delegate this time, so I must de- cline. Very truly yours, J. Lindley Green. :,

THE STORY OF
 ANTON MARKS

which we named the Ready Bullion, and the other the Golden Chariot. Then we stalk ed some quartz claims.
 We could do nothing until spring, and we were out of provisions. We wrote a letter to Sitka that we had some good prospects. About month later little steamer came up from Killisnoo. They had lot of provis- ions on board, but they would not trust us. We had been living on clans and muscles for about three months. We asked them for credit and told them that our prospects were good, and ask ed them to come up and see them. They declined to look at them, howev CT, and then we asked them for some nails to build a sluice box. MT. Spuhn was willing to give us the nails but his partner was not, so he let us have them and charged them to himself. We wrote to Sitka for some provisions, and in about a week they arrived. Then we went back to Juneau and helped each other build cabins on all the lots we. had taken up.
 One of these cabins is still standing and is called the Clog cabin church '' After we had completed the cabins we went up to the Basin again.
 The man-ofw Jamestown came 10 Juneau in the spring. Captain Glasse came up to us and asked us what we were doing on that ground. We told him we were hunting for gold. He said that his stake was there with his name on it, and ordered us to give it up We told him we owned it, and if there was any gold we would keep it, and if not he could have it. We could not do very much as the snow was on the ground
 But Captain Glasse gave up his claim.
 We also gave it up-because it did not pay. Then we went over to the Ready Bullion and built three cabins. We got some lumber, made sluice box es, and got the water in. We cut the timber down and made wheeling blanks and wheelbarrows. With the first cleanup we made we went to the store to buy some grub.
 We worked the ground according to the tide, fifty. feet below high water mark. We wheeled it up in wheelbar- rows, dumped it, and shoveled it into boxes. We took out over $4,0O0 in one seasons work.
 French Pete came up from Sitka in sloop and had some provisions with him. We told him to take up claim by our mines. He did, and called it the Paris Lode, afterward selling it to John Treadwen for $4OO. Some men came from Wrangell and took up pla- cer claims above the Paris Lode. They built a Hume to work the ground and did we'll
 This group of claims made three towns-Treadwell, Douglas and Jul neau.
 Next season built an arastra alone, at the Ready Bullion. I was doing pretty we'll when I got sick and went to Sitka to be treated by the navy sur geons. I was still sick when the ship sailed away. I returned to Juneau, but being still very sick, I went to Vancouver. As soon as I had recover ed my health I returned to Douglas again.

Last Evening.

4 mysterious rifle discharge on North
Franklin street, Montpelier, last evening
resulted in the arrest OF George Whelan.
a man who has lodgings in the Tomasi
block in Montpelier, to be held on the
charge OF intoxieation, The rife bullet
passed through the wall of Barney Me-
Kenna's house on North Franklin street
and passed close BIZ the head of Charles
McKenna, who was sitting in the room.
The bullet then lodged in the wall.
where it was later found The bullet
was OF the steel-jacketed variety.
Shortly after the firing of the weapon,
the police were notified and they went
to the neighborhood, together with Grand
Juror Gleason. The party searched the
house OF man named Stafford nearby,
and in an upper room they found
Whelan. They also found revolver,
and Stafford told the officers that Whelan
had shown him the weapon earlier in
the evening.
Up to the present time, however, there
is nothing to corHect Wbelan with the
firing OF the rifle. There is no clew to
the reason for the disturbance. Pending

RoBBERIES IN BOSTON.
Several of Them Occurred Early Yester-
day Morning

Boston, Feb 27-Jewelry, shoes, bar
bers' supplies and tailors' goods figured
largely in burglaries committed early
Sunday morning in the business district.
Stores and offices on Avon, School and
Water streets were the places selected By
the thieves for their successful opera
tions.
The strange gang of thieves which has
been operating in the downtown Office
buildings during the past month, de.
stroying much more property than has
been stolen, performed its most extern
siye piece OF work early Sunday morn
ing on the premises OF each OF the IL
tenants above the ground floor Of the
Briggs building at the southerly corner
Of Washington and School streets.
While the police were unable to say
last night how much had been taken,
they were OF the opinion that the prop
erty damage, which viii reach several
hundred dollars, will exceed the value
of the stolen goods,
The gang left behind a long. handled
screwdriver, probably used in iimmying
doors, and worn derby hat, which was
exchanged for better one in one of the
offices from which several coats were
taken also Two safes containing mon
ey and property Of considerable value
were left unmolested. while articles
worth but little We're carried of In
each OF the six tailor shops IN the build.
ing bolts OF cloth or garments in process
of making were slashed, while in the

however, as the fremen were informed
by small boy that the couple had
skipped out the back door Of the clergy

years later aud now by President TAFT
When Postmaster Bisbee first took
charge OF the Barre Office in February,
! 1890, the business was located in the
vestry OF the Universalist church, fol-
/ lowing fire which destroyed the opera
house building. where the government
had its headquarters. On the completion
OF the present city hail. the government
leased one of the front apartments and
has since been located there, although
tremendously handicapped during the
few years because Of the want Of room.
Now that the federal building seems
assured during the next year or two, it
Is expected that there viii be no com.
plant OF lack OF ROOM and Postmaster
Bisbee will have the privilege of seeing
the postal service installed in the new
structure
To state that during Postmaster Bis.
bees administration the postal receipts
OF the Office have more than doubled
gives. perhaps, an inadequate idea Of the
growth OF the service here Therefore,
il should be stated that in 1899 there
were only four clerks IN the office /;
whereas there are now seven, not to
mention a clerk on the substitute list.
The four clerks in 1899 were paid sn
aggregate salary OF 81 1900, and the seven
clerks are now paid an aggregate salary
OF $1,000. Also III 1899 there were only
four city carriers, while now there are
seven, with comparative aggregate sal
aries OF $500 and 81 200. This latter
figure does not include a carrier on the
substitute list.
In addition to that, the rural carrier
service has been installed during Post
master Bisbees terms Of office. and there
are now four carriers in this branch Of
the service, with an aggregate salary Of
$3.50. When ii is considered that each
member of this newer service and each
one of the other additional city carriers
requires desk and that the equipment
of the office has necessarily increased
also, il is not to be wondered at that
the service has been cramped for room,
especially since the quarters are no larger
now than when the post office was moved
into the city building.
Scales are crowded under cancehng
machines and mail cases are iammed so
near together that narrow lanes only are
left for open space, etc Under these
handicaps, the efficiency of the Office has
not only been maintained, but has grown
materially Far greater efficiency is
hoped for when the new federal building
is ready for occupancy
When Postmaster Bisbee first assumed
the duties OF his Office Miss Kate West
was the assistant postmaster Now that
position is filed by Frank l. Robinson,
who has been in the post Office service
here all through Mr. Bisbee's adminstra-
tion and many years before that.

The following other Vermont appoint
ments were made at the same time Mr..
