natural inclination Is to get up again.
The shock OF the fall has excited him
more or less. and in his efforts to arise
he may further injure himself as well
as the harness.
The first action should be to sit on
his head, pointing bis nose upward
with one hand. TO keep him from
struggling until the traces and all other
attachments to the vehicle can be I'M
fastened If two persons are present
this can be done without difficulty.

humane as well as the most sensible
action Is to shoot him on the spot.
It Is true that cases are on record
where broken legs have been success
fully treated by means of suspending
the horse IN sling and pulleys, but
the experiments IN this direction have
almost invariably met with failure.
To shoot suffering animal and kill
him instantly is not so simple a mat

Life In America. Many shots are
sometimes fired before death results.

The United States government ought
to place the SCARED batleship Maine,
where circus managers and others can
not comercialize it; and in order to do
that perhaps the best way would be
to sink the wreckage to the bottom Of
the sea. The idea OF turning the hulk
over to souvenir makers or any of their
kind is decidedly distasteful to the
American people.

ACCURATE SCALES AND MEASURES

The value of the new state law au-
thorizing the inspection of weights and
measures is brought home to the people
of any community where the inspector
puts in his work, notably so in the
case of Barre at the present time. In
many of the larger places of Vermont,
the inspection revealed conditions which
were far from satisfactory, and the re-
suit of the local inspection indicates
about the same proportion OF false
weights; which shows that the purchas-

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
BY A. w. Macy.
sHAYs' REBELLION.


One Of the most perlIous
times In the history Of the
United States was the period
Just after the close Of the Revo-
lutlonary war and before the
government had become firmly
established. Every community
was inclined to be law unto
Itself. Even In puritanlcal
Massachusetts, there was a lit
tie rebellion against the state
government that looked serious
for a time. II is known as
"shays' Rebellion" taking lts
name from one Of the leaders,
Daniel shays. who had been
gallant officer In the War for
independence. The grievances
were, the large salary paid tie
governor Of the state, the arls.
tocratlc character of the state
senate, and the burdensome
taxes. The rebellion lasted
from August, 1875, tlll the fol-
lowing February. shays had
large following, and there we're
several conflicts with the state
militia. The opposing forces,
however, evidently did not get
dangerously near each other,
for only three men we're killed
during the entire "war." Tho
leaders were tried and convict
ed, but were eventually par
doned. shays lived tlll 1925,
and In his old age was pen
stoned for his gallant services
during the Revolution.
