if farmers will go more generally into
dairying there will be no necessity of
keeping the children out of school to
help with the .work-there will be
money enough to engage the services
of a hired man.

Inquiry in Wellesley.

With the condition of Miss Irene T,
Fogg, the Wellesley college sophomore
who was run down by the automobile of
William H. Chapman in front of the
college gate, still critical, the highway

cation into the circumstances surround
ing the disaster.
In last effort to save her life, DR..
F. E. Porter operated upon her at the
Newton hospital late yesterday, and at
midnight it was reported by the ply
sicians in attendance that she was rest

MORGAN HORSE BREEDING.

Last week we published in the news
columns something about what the fed
eral government is doing for the i'm
provement of Vermont fishing. But
this is not the only work of the federal
government in behalf of the state. 1t
is engaged in breeding horses for mill
tary service and in Vermont and New
Hampshire it is breeding Morgan horses
for this purpose. The headquarters for
New England in this work is at the
Government Morgan Horse Farm To-
Gated in the town of Weybridge. But
to give the farmers of a wider section
opportunity to use standard bred stall
lions as sires there have been good Nor
gan stations located for the season at
Northfeld Plainfield, West Fairlee
and Hartland Four Corners in Vermont,
and at Woodsvile, Oxfordville and West
Claremont in New Hampshire.
The farmers must furnish sound mares
with a square trotting gait and if they
will give the government an option on
the colt at $3.50 w hen three years old the
service of the stallion is free. If the
government does not wish to take the
colt no charge will be made for the serv-
ice But if the farmer thinks the colt
worth more than $3.50 and decides to
keep it he must pay fee of $25 for ma
ture stations and smaller fee for the
younger horses.
This is most liberal opportunity for
the farmers of these two states to i'm
prove the standard of horses. IL will
cost them nothing unless they raise
such good colts they do not care to part
with them for $3.50 and they have the

OUR WHITE HOUSE ALLOWANCE
Continued next week. }

Even $3.50, 600 year for our White
House is small compared to what other
countries allow their rulers. The king
of Saxony has $3.50, 900 a year and he
has only 5000 600 people under him.
The income of the car of Russia is
estimated at $4,000, 900 a year or
more. The emperor of Austria Hun
gary gets nearly half that much. Little
Denmark allows her king 1862, 600 and
her crown prince S32. 600 a year. Poor
Greece does the same. The king of
England draws 81, $50, 900 for his "civl
list, " eX-Queen Alexandra gets $4l3,-
600 to spend and others of the royal
family are paid Sab, 600 more; then too
the king as duke of Lancaster has
revenues of $500, 600 and the prince of
Wales has about $500, 600. The king of
Italy has over $1,000 600 to do with.
The queen of the Netherlands gets
$3.50, 600, besides S62, 900 more for the
| family. The German emperor stands
his people in $4, 600, 900 a year to start
with and also has vast income from
his royal estates. The king of Spain
draws 81, 100000 a year himself and
$500, 900 for the royal family which
may be what's the matter with him.
Even economical Sweden allows her
king 1888, 900 and $3.50, 600 more for the
family, and Norway punches it all at
$l85, 900. The income of the sultan of
Turkey has been about $1,000, 600 a
year, but that is going down now.
France gives her president $l2O, 600 a
year salary and the same amount for
expenses, Pathfinder.

when the car disappeared down Jackson
street 1T was far exceeding the speed
limit. - Brooklyn Eagle.

BLAME FOR AUTO DEATH.
vestieate Cause of Cohasset
Accident

Aroused by the fragrant violation of
the speed laws by occupants of the
racing machine which turned turtle in
Cohasset last Sunday and resulted in
the death of Mrs. Beulah r. Smith of
Lexington, Dist-Atty. Alfred F. Barker
of Norfolk and Plymouth counties has
decided to investigate the disaster and
fix the responsibility.
For the last five days Chief of Police
Bates of Cohasset and State Officer
Scott have been working under the di-
rection of the prosecuting official, and
Mr.. Barker announced last night that
sufficient evidence had been uncovered
to warrant an inquest. 1t will be held
at Quincy before Judge Avery of the
district court of that city next week
The accident, which happened at
Whitney's corner, was one of the most
disastrous of the present season. Mrs.
Smith was riding in machine, which,
according to witnesses, was going at a
speed of from So to 65 miles an hour.
1t skidded on the rs" curve by the
Whitney's corner crossing of the New
Haven road, turned turtle and the
woman was pinned under it. She died
short time later in the baggage car of
train while being taken to the hospi-
tai in Boston. The other occupants OF
the car, Paul Moulton and Francis w.
Holmes of Brookline We're seriously in
jured in the smash up.
The next day the highway commission
began an investigation of the affair anc
it is understood that Dist Atty. Barker
has been aided in his action by that
board.
Every person who might have the
slightest knowledge of the accident has
been questioned by the police and al
of the circumstances surrounding the
affair are known to them. - Boston

Warren, O., May 8.-Three women
were killed, one man so badly injured
that he died later and another seriously
hurt when a Baltimore and Ohio ex-
press train struck an automobile in
which the party were riding at Leav-
ittsburg, o., late this afternoon. Four

escaped. All were residents of War
rem.
Mr.. Turner, who was driving the au-
tomobile, failed to see the train unit
within 100 yards of the crossing. Wher
he attempted to apply the brakes he
stopped the engine and the machine
coasted on the track in front of the

New York, May 1S.-Two women and
two babies, each four months old, and
a girl of five years were injured to-

and school equipment that is up-to-date.
Many rural schools of the future will
have a work room adjoining the study
room where instructions may be given
in elementary carpentry, sewing, cook
ing and serving food, seed testing, and
other activities closely related to rural
life. There must be a change also in
instruction from square root and com
pound proportion to practical farm ac-
counts; from rules of grammar to a
study of insects, birds and plants of
Vermont; from the geography of the
book to that of the school yard and
neighborhood.
A great step toward renovating rural
life will come when teachers understand
their pupils, when they realize that
their mission is not so much to teach
subjects as to train and assist children
into the full development of their
natural powers. The conservation of
rural children is more to be desired
than the preservation of the mysticism
and traditions that cling about the little
red school house.
Where the need for trained leaders
and efficient teachers is greatest there
should be the best not the poorest,
teachers. Never before have the rural
teachers of Vermont had so many OPP
portunities offered them by Middlebury
college for equipping themselves fol
their work than during the coming
summer session of the college. In.
struction in rural pedagogy, the train.
ing of children, nature study, Vermont
geography, practical drawing, meta
craft, food study and making, anc
other subjects are provided especially
to meet the needs of this class of rura
workers.
A teacher who is really alive to hei
opportunities as a trained rural leader
must recognize that time and effor
spent in the pursuit of these subject!

efficient teaching on her part but also {

assessed the fee. Fair play compels us
to say that the people of Vermont are
indebted to Joseph Battel Of Middle
bury for the stimulus in the horse rails
ing industry because he presented to the
federal government the farm now used
as the headquarters of the New Eng
land horse breeding district. Had it
not been for this generous gift Vermont

tiles of Paris have under consideration
an ordinance making it obligatory for
all motor cars to carry a device by
means of which passengers in the in

Such measure would prevent accidents

BECOMES A DEMOCRAT.

BECOMES A DEMOCRAT.
At this time politics ran high in the
Presidential election between Gen.
jackson and j. @. Adams. My asso-
ciate apprentices and myself were
warm advocates of Gen. Jack sons
claims, whilst our employer was an
ardent supporter of Mr.. Adams and
Mr.. Clay. From this moment my pol
itics became fixed, and all subsequent
reading, reflection, and observation
have but confirmed my early attach
ment to the cause of Democracy.
In the winter of 1929 and 1880 | was
taken sick and compelled to return
home. My physicians informed me
that my physical strength was too
feeble to enable me to work at the
cabinet business, and that it would be
necessary for me to select some other
occupation. Finding my health too
feeble to work in the shop, COM
menced going to school at the Acad-
envy in Brandon, under the direction of
j. N. Chapman, and continued under
his instruction until the fall of 1880,
when | removed to Canandaigua, On
tario, NJ Y.
My sister had previously married
julius N Granger and removed to his
residence in Manchester Centre, On
tario County, N. Y, and this year,
1880, my mother married his father,
and now the father, mother and only
son and daughter became united in one
family, where they continued to reside
in the enjoyment of peace, plenty and

York in December, 1880, | became a
student in the Academy in Canandai-
qua under the superintendent of

until the latter part of 1892. While
connected with the Academy at Can
andaigua | devoted myself zealously
to my studies, the Greek and Latin
languages, mathematics, rhetoric,
logic, ETC., and made considerable i'm
provement.
About the 1st of January, 1888, left
the Academy and entered the office of
Walter & Levi Hubbell as a student
at law. | pursued my law studies
diligently five days in the week, and
the sixth | spent reviewing my classical
studies, until some time in the month of
June in that year,
Finding myself in straitened pecu-
mary circumstances, and knowing
my mothers inability to support me
through a regular course of law
studies, which would continue about
four years longer, according to the
statutes of New York, requiring a
course of seven years classical and
legal study before admission to the
bar, determined upon removing hence
forth. My mother and relatives re-
monstrated, urging that | was too
young and inexperienced for such an
