Much interest was taken last week
in the siaement from the Offices Of the
Barre & Montpelier Street Railway
Co. that the reason for defaulting the
interest on the bonds due November J.
was the deficit since July, when bust
ness is supposed to be the largest.
The Is or more jitneys operating
between the two cities were the main
cause of reduced revenues, Many in
ouiries have been made by bondhold-
ers who have not received their inter-
est at the usual time. The bonded in
debtedness is 100000.

Story Of the ProeIiaal Son.

The story Of the prodigal son 10
more than parable. 1t is based on a
law set forth on a Babylonian tablet
1000 years before the time Of Christ.
A Yale professor has translated the
Sumerian characters in which the laws

The Rev. DR.. Homer A. Flint, rec
tor of Christ Episcopal Church, Mont
pelier, read his resignation at the
morning service Sunday, the action
coming as a distinct surprise to the
parishioners. He has received a call
from the Episcopal Church at Grafton,
Pa, where he resided before coming
to Montpelier several years ago. A
meeting of the vestrymen will be held
to act upon the resignation. Doctor
Flint as secretary of the Montpelier
Board of Trade has been active in city
affairs since coming to Montpelier.
The church recently purchased a rec
tory and it was expected that Doctor
and Mrs. Flint would move from their
present home within few weeks.

poison beside his doorstep, five mem

of the poison. Mr.. Chase was fined
$40. Mr.. Thomas, charged with al
lowing his hens to run at large, was
found not guilty. 1t is said that Mid
dletown Springs hens have the liberty
of the village under the unwritten
law. As near as could be learned the
town was about equally divided on
the question and the entire male pop

For Schools
OF Jersey City

The latest slogan for Mayor Mark
Pagan of, Jersey City, ought to be:
millions for new schools, but not one
cent for alterations"
At Tuesdays meeting of the Board
of School Estimate in the Mayors Of
flee, City Hall, the questions of Com
missioner Hague's letter to the Board
of Education reporting the unsafe
ness of a school building in his dis
trict came up for discussion. Mr..
Anderson, Director of Education,
gave the same testimony. Mr.. Boyle,
fire chief, said that the school was a
fire trap. Commissioner Hague
asked that funds be provided at once
for the erection of a new school in
place of the old.
At this point in the proceedings
other officials discovered sudden
ly that certain schools had come
to their notice which needed replac-
ing or renovating. City Commissioner
Brensinger spoke up for No. ID; Mr.
Longhran, president of the school
board put in word for No. 6.
Then up spoke Mayor Pagan: "Well,
We came here to speak of a single
school, and now are listening to a
chorus of requests for other new
schools. Are there any others left
we haven't heard about? Why not
go at this matter boldly and renovate
or replace the whole system? Let us
bond our city for three or four mil
lion dollars, and do the whole job at
once"
Needless to say, the board did not
act upon this rather startling propo-
sition. Commissioner Brensinger,
however, assented to it.
The majority of the board favored
the attending to the particular build
ing which har precipitated the dis
cussion. AS result the members de-
cided to visit the building, No. A, and
inspect the same. They did. There
will be new building. But whether
an entire new system is another
matter.

Walter Malone
Dies Suddenly

Judge Walter Malone of Memphis,
one of the foremost figures in South
ern literature, passed away suddenly
recently.
Judge Malone was a native of this
state, born and reared in DeSota coun-
ty, graduate of the University of
Mississippi, and at the time of his
death was serving as circuit Judge
of the second division of the Mem
phin circuit court. Apoplexy was the
cause of his death.
The Memphis author achieved his
greatest distinction on the publica-
tion of a poem entitled Opportunity"
which has become classic and is
worth reproducing:
They do me wrong who say I
come no more
When knock and fail to find
you in;
For every day I stand outside
your door,
And bid you wake, and rise to
fight and win.
Wall not for precious chances

Notes on the Game
There should be the friendliest
rivalry between these two clubs and
not the least bit of bitterness. They
should give and take, and not allow
any feeling whatever to exist. 1t
destroys all interest in the game.
And there is no other sport in
America comparable to baseball.
Prof. butcher is some tall young
man, if he is bit scrappy. An esti-
mate would give him about six-feet-
six, or more.
Van Zandt the Leonia short, is a
fine, well-behaved player.
If the youth of Cortez is responsible
for his ugliness in throwing his bat
at the umpire is all that should ex-
cuse that youngster, there is some
thing else that would suit him better
viz: good tanning.
Judge Thompson, father of the
Leonia catcher, is in for the great
American game with both feet, and
says the enthusiasm of ball audiences
cannot be squelched. That is agreed.
But there should be a limit on en-
thusiasm. 1t should not descend to
umpire and pitcher batting. Tell 'em
that, Brother Thompson.
Charles Logan's two home runs
were the talk of the game. He lost
the ball both times, but they would
have counted regardless of that, even
if the grass had been cut.
Paul Brady will star at Princeton,
no doubt, and should have a diamond
career highly creditable to his skill
as an all round player One of Paul's
most commendable traits is his fine
behavior on the field, great col
lege point.
Ed. Greer had the Leonias eating
out of his hand, and but for ragged,
extremely ragged, should have shut
them out.
Henry Mutt was away off form in
this last game. He was all butter
fingered. He just could not connect
with anything much. Ordinarily he
is fine young player. They all get
that way now and then.
George Beckmann told Manager
Logan after the game had progressed
81 thought you told me not to hit 'em
hard? followed your directions and
only got four hits" George wanted
five to make a clean score.
Palisadian., 1915-06-19

Weep not for golden ages on
the Wane!
Each night l burn the records
of the day
At sunrise every soul is born
again!
Laugh like a boy at splendors
that have sped,
To fanished joys be blind and
deaf and dumb;
My judgment seal the dead past
with it's dead,
But never bind moment yet
to come.
Though deep the mire, wiring not
your hands and weep;
l lend my army to all who say
81 can!"
No shame-faced outcast ever sank
so deep,
But yet might rise and be a
gain a man!
Dost thou behold thy lost youth
all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous Ret
ribution's blow?
Then turn from blotted archives
of the past,
And find the futures pages
white as snow.
Art thou a mourner? Rouse thee
from thy spell;
Art thou sinner? Sins may
be forgiven;
Each morning gives the wings
to flee from hell,
Each night star to guide thy
feet to heaven.
Judge Malone had written many
beautiful things, but he never quite
attained to the sublime height of
poesy reached in his "Opportunity."
He was very irregular worker, due
to the fact that he tried to serve two
law and literature. A few
weeks ago, in a chat with this writer,
he stated that he was at work on a
novel, soon to be issued
from the press, and which he hoped
would be recognized as his most SER
ious effort.
The character of this eccentric
author -jurist is we'll illustrated by the
sentiment expressed a few days ago
when he wrote his own epitaph, ap-
parently divining life's end, and hand
ed it to his friend to read. It was as
follows:
Stranger who passeth by my
house Of clay,
Pause for moment in ten
der mood:
Think not your sight of pity
thrown away
Because I'd say God bless you
if / could"

A CHAMPION OF HOME

Politicians who say that they op-
pose equal suffrage because they wish
to protect the home are often the very
persons against whom the home needs
protection. Here is State Senator
James T. McNichol, of Pennsylvania
for instance, declaring that "woman
suffrage will break up the home."
"Woman suffrage is the only thing
that will defend the home from per-
nicious housing bills such as Senator
McNichol is now trying to push
through the Legislature" according
to Miss Mary Ingham, of Philadel-
phia."
Suffrage is not only just, she says
but to combat such methods as are
used by Senator McNichol and his
colleagues, it is an absolute ne
cessity."
This housing bill, she says, "de-
stroys the present opportunities for
tenants in small houses to obtain
proper protection, sanitation, and a
clean water supply. 1t takes away
the provisions for fire escapes in
tenementS.
"Questions of this kind and situa-
tions created by political corruption
lists in our Legislature" she says
'have brought women to the realiza-
ton that they must have political
power to protect not only their own
homes, but the homes of the women
who have no direct influence through
organization, or social position"
Still further to emphasize his wish
to protect the home, Senator Nc
Nichol, according to the Philadelphia
Ledger, "has openly identified himself
with the liquor interests in their cam
paign against local option. ."-Wo-

effort to get back to the bag when
