The Tree Quarantine.
(St. Adams Messenger.)


Draw a line between the following
Vermont towns and take the territory
eastward to the Atlantic ocean and
one will know how the new tree
quarantine imposed by the federal de
partment of agriculture affects Yer
mont; Guildhall, CRANKY, Victory,
Burke, Sutton, Sheffield, Wheelock.
Stannard, Walden, Cabot, Marshfield,
PIainfield, Barre, Williamstown, Brook
field, Randolph, Bethel Stockbridge,
Barnard, Pomfret, Woodstock, Read
ing, Cavendish, Chester, Grafton.
Iownshend, Newfane, Marlboro and
Halifax.
That quite territory is covered by
the quarantine, one may see at a
glance. Vermont has been working
against the brown tail and gypsy
moth pests, for the commissioners of
agriculture recognized in the early DAYS
of his office-holding that these pests
would make trouble His prediction
has been fulfilled in hurry. 1t is no
easy task to get the better of these
moths but good hard work will accom-
pllsh results. Vermont doesn t want
to have any of her products shut off
from interstate commerce and undonbt-
edIy the quarantine will have the eff
lect OF stirring the individuals into
greater activity. 1t ought to, at least.

Intense interest and enthusiasm was
manifested in the report of Miss Anna
r. Bacon of Bronxville, n. Y, who
gave the final registration for the con
ference and compared it with the fig
ures of 10 years ago, when this con
ference was started. The total attend
ance in 1904 was 236 with rs in the
Baptist delegation, which was the 1arg-
est. This year the total is 65S with

again the largest. The Congregational

Methodists third with 119.
Dir. James Franklin of the Baptist

ference was greatly aroused when he
told of his recent travels in China.
where he said, the most conspicuous
thing on sale was British and American

America take the lead in lighting the

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
The Man Who Would Not
Sit Beside ThurIOW Weed
By Holland

When Thurlow Weed became a
member Of the lower House Of the
State Legislature at Albany, having
been chosen by the Ant-Masonic
party as a representative from Roch-
ester, N. y, he was fortunate enough
10 secure one OF the best seats In the
House, assigned by lot. His neighbor
upon the right was Charles L. Liv-
ingston, of New York, q member Of
the distinguished Livingston family,
another member Of which was secre-
tsry OF state in President jackson 5
administration, another relative being
Chancellor Livingston, of New York,
whose mysterious disappearance was
an exciting national topic. The mys-
terry Of that disappearance has never
been cleared up
On the second day Of the session
Weed discovered that his neighbor,
Mr.. Livingston, had given up his seat
and had in fact paid the representa-
tive from one of the remote rural
districts Of the state twenty-five dol
lars as an inducement to the farmer
TO swap seats with him.
Mr.. Weed was deeply wounded by
this action, for he had reason to sus-
pect that the aristocratic Livingston
did not want to he seated beside the
young member from Rochester. which
at that time was just beginning ia
give the hint of the growth and in
huence which the village was to at
tain within a few years.
Some weeks after the session
opened Mr.. Weed introduced bill
containing proposed measures NJ
which the citizens of Rochester anC
the Genesee Valley were deeply I'm.
terested. Upon the passage OF this
bill and its enactment into law Mr.
Weed based his hope of success as
a member Of the Legislature.
The measure was referred to q
special committee named by ia,
speaker Of the Assembly, who ap
. pointed as chairman of that commit
tee Charles S. Livingston, of New
York. Many years later Mr.. WeeC
recalled the circumstance while chat
ling with friends at his home in New
York City one evening.

Of the piece, the musicians arose from

more money, while those who refused
to go on strike continued to play. The
result was a bedlam of sound, and

threatening attitude towards the
bandmaster, they arose and began to
