JOHN G. SAKE.
Brattleboro Reformer,

Friday was the Tooth anniversary
of the death Of John G. SAKE, who is gem
orally rated as the greatest poet that YER
mont has ever produced, although the
writer believes his verses lack the beau
ty of expression and sentiment found
in the writing Of Julia c. r. Dorr, But
SaXe's merry, tripping lines were
artistic and musical and expressed much
shrewd philosophy and gentle satire.
Many of them are of the kind that
used to liven up the program of a
ast-day-of- ceremony and are
still known by heart by not a few Of
the older generation. They are still
good reading and stand the wear Of
time better than the humorous writ
ngs Of most of the poets contempt
raries. SAKE was genuine Vermonter.
He was born in Highgate, was gradu-
uated from Middlebury college, prac-
ticed law and edited newspapers in
this State and in New York, and twice
he was the Democratic candidate for
governor of Vermont

SENATOR PAGE
Hardwick Gazette.

why should Senator Page be chal-
lenged to declare himself for re-elec-
tom" asks the Middlebury Register.
1T is Vermont's custom to continue
senators and congressman until they
choose to retire or until someone can
prove that they are unworthy" And
no one has yet found any reason for
such charge in Senator Pages case.
Besides Vermont has had few men in
the national house who have been as
closely attentive to duties as Senator
Page. There is no good reason at the
present time for opposition to him.

While boating on the pond Memorial
day, c, B. Croft and Philip Ellis
speculated on the remote probability Of
finding pearls in the bottom of the
little lake, The talk was of hidden
treasures, the chambered nautilus, and
Captain Kidd until Mr., Croft espied a
shining object in the sand almost
directly under the boat, With the aid of
an ingeniously contrived snare, the
boatman angled successfully for the
sparkler and had the satisfaction of re-
storing the ring to Mr., Parker, after
the latter had abandoned all hope of
ever wearing the gem again.

seriously though not fatally injured in
the railroad yards at Burlington when
he fell between two freight cars to the
ground below. He suffered a severe
scalp wound, badly wrenched arm and

an unconscious movement ia kicking
himself away from the rails where he
was sure to have met death.

NIGHT TELEGRAMS.
Springfield Reporter.

1t is said that the Western Union
averages to send 100000 night tele-
grams of so words each every night
of the year. 1t costs no more to send
SO words by night than to send ten by
day, and thus the custom of night tele-
grams is rapidly increasing. This is a
great convenience, and widely extends
the list of patrons of the yellow envel-
Opes.
