THE SAVING HABIT.
Valuable Article From an Old Saturday
Evening Post.

Every boy as he commences his life
work, whether as an apprentice in
shop or as a clerk in a store, pictures
himself as being in comfortable circum-
stances at some future day, as the result
OF his own industry and skill
In his brighter visions he may see
himself the owner of the factory in
which he is then working, for he has read
many books In which the heroes began
life under far less favorable circumstances
than he, and became rich and influential
manufacturers by rapid steps. Or he
sees himself at the head of business
that is both large and profitable, gained
by his own ability and good fortune.
Ten or 20 years do not seem like a long
period when waiting for prizes. for life
is before him, and, with the buoyancy
and hopefulness Of youth, he dwells upon
the possible results, rather than upon the
long and weary steps that bring him to
them. ~
Every young man has an Indefinite
intention, in his plans of life, of some
day commencing to save a part Of his
wages or salary, under the belief that
it may be necessary to have a little
capital of his own, when the decisive
day shall come, which will open the door
to higher position. But the vast ma
jority of young men never find the right
moment in which to begin, so they put

1t is not improbable that the character of
Jonathan was the first public embodiment
of the famous title of Brother Janothan
as applied to Yankees generally.
The play had its first presentation on
the boards of the John Street Theatre,
New York, April 16, 1891, just after the
Inauguration of Washington and while the
First Congress was in session. 1t was
received with great favor byfthe brilliant
gathering at the young metropolis and
had run very unusual at that period
of several weeks.
The First American Novel
Honored with republicat ton in England
was also written by Judge Tyler, either in
Guilford or Brattleboro. 1t was entitled,
The Algerine Captive. or the Life and
Adventures Of Dr. Updike Underhill: Six
Years Prisoner among the Algerines,"
and was published at Walpole, n. H., by
David Carlyle. jr., in 1897. Messrs. G.
and j. Robinson, Paternoster row, Lon
don, republished the work in 1902, and
improved greatly on the American edition.
Among Judge Tyler's later publications
was The Yankey in London" purporting
to be series of letters written by an
American abroad. The comments on
English life and manners were recognized
as sensible and just. but it finally leaked
out, to the intense Amusement Of his
readers, that the author had never been
across the ocean, and so drew upon his
imagination and familiarity with English
people and customs for material for his
letters.
The First Postal Stamp
Used on the Western continent origin
ated, it is claimed, in Brattleboro Fred
n. Palmer, postmaster. in 1915, had a
hand stamp made and put in use in the
office here, thus inaugurating revolu
ton in the system of letter mailing.

FRANK BOYD ON TRIAL FOR HIS LIFE
Head Of John Potter and Other Gesome Exhibits Shown Jury
in County Court Respondent Claims Faa Wounds Were Inhc.
ted in Self Defense. Evidence Nearly All In

Three days have been consumed in
county court this week in the trial of
Frank j. Boyd of Wilmington, charged
with the murder of John Potter in that
town April IA, and the case is well
toward the end Gruesome exhibits
were made the first day, Tuesday, includ-
ing Potters head, but they had no APP
parent effect on Boyd, who appears in
court wearing smoked glasses, which
conceal the expression of his eyes. There
is no dispute over the fact that Potter
who worked for Boyd received injuries
on his head in Boyd's sugar house the
afternoon of April IA, which caused his
death early that evening, neither is il
denied that an alteration, probably over
wages, took place in the sugar house
and that Potters injuries were inflicted
as a result of the trouble. The state,
represented by States Attorney Frank
Z. Barber of Brattleboro and Attorney
General John G. Sargent of Ludlow,
claims that Boyd struck Potter with
stick and that the striking was not JUS
tfiable. The defense, conducted by
Chase & Daley of Brattleboro, claims
that the respondent was attacked and
that the injuries were inflicted in self
defense. Boyd is "a years old and I'M
married. Potter was 81 and also single.
Judge E. l.. Waterman is presiding at
the trial. On the opening day Sheriff A.
H. Thompson of Bellows Falls assigned
Deputy Sheriff Frank L. Wellman of
Guilford to have charge of the prisoner
and Deputy Sheriff Frank E. Davis of
South Londonderry to have charge of
the jury.
The selection of the jury practically
was completed Tuesday forenoon, but one
change was made after dinner. George
II. Allbee of Brookline, farmer, was ac-
cepted, but when court re-assembled in
the afternoon he was excused by consent of
all parties on account of illness in his
family and Charles n. Robbins of Brat
tleboro was drawn in his place
As finally completed the jury was made
up as follows: W. NJ Ball of Athens,
painter; George Thwng of Putney,
salesman; Joseph ]. Barnes of Westmins-
ter, farmer; NJ j. Barrett of Bellows
Falls, insurance agent; Charles H. Dick
inson of Newfane, farmer; Alfred Raw
son of Londonderry, jeweler; Frank A.
Burditt of Putney, farmer; Morton Z.
Davis of Guilford, farmer; Dwight John
son of Dummerston, farmer; l.. j. Parker
of Townshend. dentist; William Carleton
of Windham, farmer: Charles ~ Robbins
of Brattleboro, farmer. Twenty names
were drawn, but three were excused for
cause, four were challenged and one was
excused on account of illness in his
family. About half of the jurymen said
they did -. favor capital punishment
and SONG lked with disfavor upon
circumsta evidence, but all said they
would mott allow their sentiment with
respect to those things to stand in the way
of finding such verdict as the evidence
warranted.

Correspondence of The Boston Journal

correspondence OF The Boston Journal
Brattleboro, VT, April 10, 1878.
The first American play produced on
the American stage Is claimed. indirectly
by Brattleboro. 1t was written bv the
late Judge Royal Tyler Gather of the
late General John c. Tyler of BOSTON,.
who became a citizen of this town about
the beginning of the present century, and
was closely identified with its interests
and history during a long and honorable
career. Judge Tyler was, however. a
native of Boston. He graduated at
Harvard and began the practice of law at
quincy. He was engaged to Abby,
daughter of John Adams, at the time
when the latter was transferred from the
Hague to England as our representative
abroad. His fair betrothed received pa
ternal summons to England, and after
her arrival there broke the engagement,
subsequently marrying her fathers Sec
rotary OF Legation. This circumstance
very likely led the young lawyer to for
sake the vicinity of Boston, where he was
surrounded by every possible advantage
of wealth, position and influence, for the
then comparative wilderness of Vermont
