Ex-Governors of Vermont.

Tnere are living at the present time eleven ex-Governors of Vermont. Tho venerable war Governor of the State, Frederick Holbrook, is still living at Brattleboro. He was elected to office thirty-five years ago, and Is the oldest of those who have filled Vermont’s executive chair. George W. Hendee, of Morrisville, filled out the unexpired term of Peter T. Washburne, who died In 1870, and John W. Stewart, of Middlebury, was Governor from 1870 to 1872. In 1878 Senator Redfield Proctor, President Harrison's Secretary of War, was elected Governor. His successors, all of whom are living, were Roswell Farnham of E ladford, John L. Barstow of Shelburne, Samuel E. Pinjree of Hartford, Ebenezer J. Orrosbee of Brandon, William P. Dillingham of Waterbury, Carrol B. Page of Hyde Park, and Levi K. Fuller of Brattleboro.

Honored by Heathens.

The German Emperor must have been very much amused when he read the speech of one of the natives of the Cam•roons in proposing the “health of the Kaiser” at a recent festival. The speech was as follows: “The Emperor is the wisest and most powerful man In the world. He sees the treasures in the middle of the earth, and he has brought them forth. He spans the World with iron threads, and as soon a* he touches them his words travel over space. He has steamships that sail on dry land. When a mountala stands in his way he bores a hole through it; if a river bars his progress he guilds a street in the air. Though the Emperor is the richest of all men he has only one wife, and though his wife ts the most beautiful woman on earth he had not anything to pay for her.”

The Russian Crown.

The crown which Is to be worn at the voming coronation of the Gear of Rus■la is one of the richest treasures In the possession of European royal or Imperial families. Catharine the Great bad It made by a jeweler from Geneva in the last eentury. She gave orders at the time that it was to be the most valuable crown in Europe. The jeweler, however, was Informed that it must not weigh more than five pounds, as the Empress was to wear It for five hours at the ceremony of coronation. The Genevan was successful in fulfilling al) the requirements, and the crown to-day Is valued at nearly $450,000.

LOVE, LIGHT AND LUCK.

A Millionaire Senator Who Has Three ’ Strong Pointe of Belief. Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada, to a firm believer in luck. He told me a little while ag«t mje a writer in the New York Telegram, that he deserved no credit at all for being a millionaire “I am one of the comparatively few who were born under a lucky star,” he said. “Without luck as an aid I would never have been heard of. That’s the ease es most successful men, you will find, whether they will admit it or eot, t have always found that luck waa Wst ahead. I once wandered away trem my party in the mountains and the intense cold threatmied to finish die before I joined it again. I got under the friendly side of a bowlder to escape the icy blasts that came roaj> Ing down the mountain and about the first thing I saw there was one solitary Match. I gathered some brushwood, struck the match and it went out. ▲ little disheartened, I proceeded on my way, and hadn’t gone twenty paces before I saw another match, but it waa a wet one. I dried it on my hair and ; struck it It sputtered, burned, flickered, danced, winked and finally j blazed, and in ten minutes I was oook* , Ing before a roaring fire. My oom* I rades saw the smoke and in a little while joined me. , Ever since that time . I have always found a match just 1 ahead. It is worse than folly for a i man to become discouraged. Life is only a question of hanging on. Luck i had as much to do with Napoleon’s 1 success as ability. It surely was not , ibllity that made him, when 22, meet, j when he was on his way to the river ' to commit suicide, in the dead of night, a friend who gave him a belt full df money. That friend, and not Napoleon, changed the map of Europe and has given hundreds of thousands of printers, binders, writers, actors, scene painters, soldiers and sailors a living. Even Shakspeare was lucky—to have been such a favorite of nature as to receive the most royal gift she ever bestowed upon mortal man—a brain of rubies. The three L/s are the greatest thing in the world—light, love, and luck.”

They Forgot About the Cars.

A cable train was moving east In Monroe street, and just before it reach* ed Clark street a horse car, south* bound, crossed in front of it When the cable train stopped, a man with a valise jumped off and started on a run for the horse car, which by that time was about seventy-five feet away. Almost at the same moment i man without a valise jumped off a northbound horse car in Clark street and started on a run for the cable train, which had begun to move. The two men ran One turn* ■d to the right and xne other to the est, and they collided. “Look outf’ shouted one. “Le’me past!” said the other. Then one man dropped the valise and laid, .“Well, I’ll swan.” The other had his mouth open, and als eyes seemed to bulge out, but he extended his hand and then said with tn effort: ‘Well, of—all—people.” • They were cousins and hadn’t seen each other for fifteen years, and neither knew that the other was in Chicago jn the day of this meeting. Both of them forgot all about the cars that had to be caught They locked arms and went to a cigar store together and there the man with the '■Use told the story.—Chicago Reoor4

How Donizetti’s Skull Was Stolen.

A French review says that the skull >f Donizetti Is still carefully preserved lu the library at Bergamo, the town where the composer was born, UvM, and died For several years before hla death Donizetti had shown signs of insanity, and just before the funeral took place an autopsy was made by the attending physicians. It the existence of grave lesions in the musician’s brain. The organ weighed 1,534 grammes, which is about a ninth above the average. The convolutions that are supposed to govern the imaginative and musical faculties showed high development. After the operatlor had been completed, one of the doctor! present secretly took possession of the upper part of the cranial vault, placed It upon his own head, and, covering it with his hat, managed to carry the strange memento away unobserved. This happened in 1848. The Doctor kept the skull all his life, naturally saying very little about it After his death a nephew had it made into a paper weight. In 1874 the municipality of Bergamo, learning of these facts, instituted an inquiry that established their truth, and finally managed to get possession of the relic.

Hidden City in the Arctic Seas.

Tlie story of the hidden city revealed to rhe world by a mirage seen over the Muir glacier in Alaska has once mere been started, says the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Several alleged observers have seen this alleged mirage, the most favored of them being an alleged John M. White, of Philadelphia, who on June 21, "some years ago,” was able to study it for nine hours, from 11:30 a. m. to 9:30 p. na. through a powerful glass. Mr. White is quite certain he didn’t dream this mirage because be has since seen photographs »f it, taken by other people. The pho tographs do not look in the least like the mirage Mr. White saw, but that is immaterial to his argument, which is that the mirage couldn’t very well have been photographed unless the miragu were visible; that if the mirage were visible there is no reason why he, Mr. White, should not have seen It if he were at the Muir glacier at the proper time of year; that having, indisputably, been at the Muir glacier at the proper time of year he Is decidedly inclined to believe that he is not mistaken in his recollection that he saw the mirage. Ms, White’s theory is that there is a flourishing open metropolis situated somewhere near the north pole on the shores of the open polar sea, and that whas ths sun “is at its highest northern point, M It is June 21, the mirage of the capital is reflected to the point WMto it aimoani over tbs Mute gfrelMb’*

The Colonel Bays No Man Went Through the War Without Experiencing It. They were talking about a soldier’s feelings in battle and some expressed the opinion that man men went through the civil war without being frightened at any time by their personal danger. It was the colonel, who had gained honors on the battlefield, Who answered him as follows: “When I started out I felt sure that I would never know what the feeling of fear was, and experience taught me that all soldiers went forth with the same impression. Gad, how I changed my mind during my first skirmish! We were behind an embankment and I waa tn command. It just rained lead across our heads. Every time a man raised his head above the breastworks It came whizzing off his shoulders as sure as shooting. I got scared. I could feel myself growing colorless. I couldn’t articulate. My arms grew rigid, and to save me I couldn’t have put in a load. All of a sudden it came to me i that the men under me know that I j was scared. This thought loosened up i my tongue and joints a bit. Then it flashed over me that it would never do for me to let my men know that I was afraid, and that I must do something to prove that I was not. What could ’ do? The man next to me poked hto head up at that point and a mlnle ball

took him right between the eyes. A cold sweat broke out on me, and I was ready to collapse, when all of a sudden It came to me that all would be lost; that I should be ruined If I let my meil go on thinking that I was a coward. I seized my field glasses and with a shout leaped to the top of the breastworks. I raised those glasses to my eyas, and for a second our enemy almost stopped tiring they were so astonished. I looked from one end of their lines to the other. “ *Come down from there, you d d Mittle fool!’ said a rough voice behind me, and I was jerked back into the ditch by a powerful ‘Do you Want to get killed?’ It was my colonel’s voice and his hand that saved me. What did I see through the field glasses ? Not a thing. I was too scared. A blind man could have seen more. But I saved my reputation. Many times after that I was frightened in battle, but never so much so, and I nev« shirked. From that day until the war closed my men adored me, and they thought I never knew fear w® during the whole es those four bloody years.” “What did they think ailed you that day?’ “It went the rounds in my company that I had an attack of heart trouble,” answered the coion el with a laugh, “and I never took the trouble to correct the story. It was true in a way, for I was so frightened that my heart almost stopped beating. It’s bosh to talk about any man going through the wlar without feeling fear. Any brave old soldier will tell you of experiences such as I have told.”

Rapid Turn of Fortune’s Wheel.

Good fortune has come to James Wilson after eleven years of penniless waj> dering on the face of the earth. Wilson Was the son of a wealthy New York banker and broker. In 1878 ho married a nurse in the family, in spite of parental objections. He went to Australia and lived there for several years with his wife. In 1884 his father died, cutting him off without a cent. He tried to break his father’s will, but was unsuccessful, and since 1886 he has led the life of a tramp. He has recently received news in San Francisco the United States Supreme Courf kwaAeclded in his toror a suit thatwill

A Market for Toads in England. Toads are sold in London and in <rany other parts of England at sixpence a dozen. Of all the means of ridding an in. Zested garden of slugs and other pesis there is nothing to touch a judicious regiment of toads. They will keep the worst garden clear of Insect enemies for any length of time; and, in view of this, the toad trade has sprung up. At evening the toed catchers set out; and along the banks of streams and under hedgegrows they find the little browa slug killers, walking solemnly in straight lines, on the prow! for worms and beetles. The wily catcher lifts them one by one, and stows them in his sack; and, if he knows anything of the ways of wild things, he will fil' all his receptacles Ln an hour. Thre*. or four dozen may be taken in an even ing almost anywhere—even <m Ham< stead Heath. Florists and private peo pie with large gardens buy the toa^ l * at sixpence a dozen.

The Springfield Republican has been paying especial attention to the trust evil, prints a statement showing that last year's catalogue of trust monopolies or anized and in operation was made ap of 172 corporations, with .an aggregate capitalization of $2,980,000,000. — The progress, of consolidation has been even more rapid ths pastyear than previously, and it may be safely estimated that now $3,500,000,000 of our industrial capital is subject to this monopoly form of operation. As the census of 1890 gave ths whole amount of industrial capital employed in the United States as $6,525,000,000, it would appear that about one-half of the capital of the countiy engaged in pzoducfion has been organized into trusts and monopolies. When a trust is formed, what is jts first avowed object? To cheapen the cost of production. Who are the ones to suffer fiom this cheapening process? ThelaborersAnother avowed object of the trusts is to control the output and regulate prices. Who suffer from this ? The independent manufacturer and the consumer. Hardly a day passes but news of the organization of a trust is printed. And these gigigantic trade combines are made possib e by legislation for which the Republican party is solely responsible. No one can read the history of enactments mado m the interests of the sugar t ust, th,e steel trust, the whiskey trust and o.her great combines of capitul without being convinced that the trust evil has been systematically strengthened by Republican legislative co operation. Fostering these combine), the Republican party strikes a blow atßevery wage earner and consumer in the country A nd yet there are wage earners who will vote for the supremacy of a pai ty controlled by the Hannas, the Carnegies, the Rockefellers, the Lukenses, and all the managers of the great monopolies in this coun*> try.
