THE GRAND TRUNKS ACTION.

The most disastrous wreck of recent
Trunk and the Boston & Maine, which
resulted in the cessation of work by the
former on the proposed extension to the
Atlantic coast. The result is something
which is greatly regretted through a
large section of New England; and the
condemnation is the greater around
Providence, where large expectations
We're raised over the proposed coming
OF the Grand Trunk. Whatever the
causes underlying the change of tactics,
it is likely that all New England eventu-
ally will be the loser if the proposed ex
tension is not completed, as this through
line of the Grand Trunk offered added
strength to the resistance to domina-
tion of New England by the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroad sys-
TEN.
The reported cause of the closing Of
the work after 81 100000 had been ex-
pended was the condition of the money
market in Europe, due TO the uncer-
tainties brought up by the Balkan war.
The European money markets may be
somewhat uncertain at the present time,
but doubtless the Grand Trunk could
find the money in the United States
Capital in southern New England
Rhode Island and Massachusetts, might |
be interested in the project; and surely |
there is enough capital for the under
taking. Therefore, the reason given by
President Chamberlin of the Grand |
Trunk does not seem reasonable, and |
the states of Massachusetts, and Rhode /
Island have ground for feeling that they
have been duped in this matter.

Youngsters With Pimp|ss.
By 81. %..

A mother asks me how she shall remove
pimples and humors that dshgure her
child's face. My answer is very simple and
direct, because all such blemishes are the
result of poisons In the system that should
be carried off in the secretons, but are not.
When anyone finds the skin becoming
sallow, dry, scaly, or when blackheads,
pimples or blotches appear, they should at
once take my DR.. True's Elixir for stom-
ach and bowels. This Is most remark
able remedy. 1t is wholly vegetable,
mild and pleasant, but very effective.
II corrects wrong condition of stom-
ach and bowels, and sets these important
organs in healthy activity, SO that waste
and poison are driven from the system.
No mother need feel anxiety about facial
blemishes on her child IL she will give my
pleasant remedy chance to remove the
cause back of them. And urge anyone,
young or old, who is now enduring this
embarrassment, TO follow the same course.
II will certainly correct the evil.
l recommend, too, that they use Park
er's 2-30-2 Cold Cream on face and neck
every night. In this way they will make
the skin soft and beautiful, as we'll as free
of Disagreement

CURRENT COMMENT
Go Slow with Salary Increases.

Governor Fletcher plainly intends that
the legislators shall earn their money,
judging from the way in which he is
planning work, but the people Of Yer
mont as a whole do not want constant
advancement of salaries of our public
servants. We have no trouble in getting
good public servants at present salaries,
and we are promised "a reduction in the
cost of living" Under these circum-
stances we must 90 slow on salary in
creases until we know where our tax
legislation and other changes are to
leave us, and our state treasury.-Bur-
lington Free Press.

The sad accident on Washington street
yesterday afternoon seems more of a
pity because the height of the automo-
billing season had passed without seri-
ous accident being recorded in Barre.
However, the season had not passed
without grave apprehension on the part
of the general public because of the
seeming carelessness of some automobile
drivers, especially at intersections Of
streets, like the corner of Main, Elm
and Washington streets.

MacGREGOR is PUT
THROUGH GRILLING

BAD AXE, Mich, May 30.-Dr Rob
ert MacGregor. on trial here charged
with poisoning Cyril Sparkling BY ad-
mlnistering arsenic, underwent 6
severe ordeal on the witness stand
yesterday, when he was cross-exam-
med by Assistant Prosecutor Snow.
| He was closely questioned about the
testimony OF Mrs Jackson Mcdonald,
who said that when she asked DR..
MacGregor to let her have Nurse
Gibbs for one day to attend her dying
boy, he replied:
No, Miss Gibbs cannot leave The
Sparlings, am between the devil and
the deep sea, and want Miss Gibbs TO
stay there"
The witness did not deny Mrs. Nc
Donald's testimony, but said he was
worried about the stories in circnla-
ton, and admitted he did use the
words quoted
After some persistent questioning
the defendant said that Miss Gibbs
went to the Sparkling home for a
double purpose, TO nurse Mrs Spar
ling, and TO find out whether the boys
were being poisoned and who wes do
ing 1t.
LII MdCOIeBOT ADMITTED, Also, tfdt
much OF Sheriff McAuley's testimony
was true. He admitted saying that all
the four Sparlings died Of a blood
malady, that Ray would die OF IL. aud
that Mrs. Sparkling had been blind
twice as result OF ii. He added that
he had also said to the sheriff: This
case is killing me-"
The doctor was tripped up in as
testimony as to when he claims TO
have first learned of the presence Of
arsenic In the bodies OF the STAR
lings AT the morning session he
said he first learned OF Il at the JUS
tice court hearing when r. w. Pryor
was on the stand. In the afternc on
he admitted telling Mrs. Mcdonald at
the first inquest that he knew they
would find arsenic.

OWNERSHIP OF FIGHTING
ISLAND IN DISPUTE

Acting for the Palms estate, OF De-
troit, Attorney N. A. Bartlett, of Wind
cor, has renewed suit to determine
the ownership OF Fighting Island. The
case will be heard before Justice Fail
conbridge in the nonjury sittings in
Sandwich, next week. A Pittsburgh
syndicate claims possession Of the
ISLAND, and the Palms estate seeks
to dlspossess 1t on the ground that
1t has not carried out the provisions
OF the purchase contract. The syndi-
cate represents that 1t has not yet
secured possession OF all the island,
nor the fishing rights along the shore
The latter are held by Charles w.
Gautnier, OF Windsor, who secured
them from the Canadian government.

WORK or TABUlATIMG
CENSUS RETURNS BIG JOB
BY Card System, Bureau Is
Enabled 20 Learn Lot
About Citizens.

The United states census bureau
is now engaged in digesting the re-
turns OF the thirteenth census. In do
ing 50 II is using some Of the most
remarkable machines in existence.
One OF them is known as a tabniat.ng
machine. II will write down a dozen
or more facts day about each enc
or thousands OF persons. The census
ONCE has a card that represents you.
This card tells whether you are male
or female, married or single, native
or naturalized. There are many other
things that must be told about you
II the census is to be complete, and
the card is punched so as to tell all
OF them.
One OF these days you-that Is, your
rcard--will be fed through the tabu-
lating machine at the census Office,
along with thousands of others. The
machine will make no mistake IN rs
work OF keeping tally on you. II your
card hasn't exactly the right number
OF holes punched In It TO tell the ma
chine just what II wants TO know
about you, II will shut down and re-
fuse to work again until your card
Is taken out for correction.
Every one OF the holes that tells the
machine the things II wants TO know
will serve as an opening for q blunt
needle TO pass through. When tie
needle passes through 1t comes into
contact with cup OF mercury, thus
closing an electric circuit which
causes the facts about you to be tab
ulated. That is how you are being
counted at the census office, and the
whole story OF the census bureau IL
most interesting. You will find il told
