A peculiar feature of the motor is that energy is being stored in the cells whenever the is running down hill or stopplns.

Aiken, the old Dartmouth pitcher, Deady, who played with thf Morrills here only two weeks ago, and Harlow, another professional from Attleboro, were there to assist the annihilation of tha Burlington students. In the first eight Innings 24 of the North-fields came to bat and but one of them located first base. Freshman Pond was pitching for the visitors and his work was remarkable for steadiness not a base on balls nor a wild pitch and only three hits. The ghost a show for a score that presented itself Northiield in the last innings of the game was most effectually dissipated by Hill's unassisted double play. The game, although not intensely interesting, must have given Northneld's inhabitants a grand of seeing base fca'l as she is played.

As has already been briefly noted in the Free Press, the 11th annuel meeting of the American Canoe association will be held on Willsboro Point ia August. Every indication points to the virnpin thehis tory of the association, and for several reasons. In the first place Lake Champlain is the canoeist's favorite camping ground, at once offering ail the natural comforts and conveniences necessary for a delightful cruise, while at the same time the lake is easy of access for both Canadians and Americans, yet far enough away from the ru.h of every day life, to tempt the meeker after health and strength. Next in importance, according to the Troy Budget, may be mentioned the admirable arrangements mad-i for the mess," which is to be under the perional supervision of Jfr. Otis of Albany, N.

who understands his business and promises most excellent cuisine. On this point the hungry canoeist need have no fear and he may arsured of receiving three "square" meals a day. Last year's experience proved an excellent teacher. Under the able leadership of the commodore, Walter U. Lawson of Hoston, who is not only a hard worker but a man of experience in club life and canoeing matters, popular with all who know him, and aided by his efficient corps of otlioers, the camp will surely be well disciplined.

It is as yet too early to give a fail list of the events and races to be held at camp, as the regatta committee has not published thoir card, but mention will be made Inter on of all races and attractions of the camp. A new race and one that promises to be an interesting event and contest for division honors Will be between the grent war canoes. Imagine four or five of these boats each 35 feat long, risalag ihrough the water, each one propelled by a crew of 2'J, dipping as maay paddles in unisou and singing some wild Indian song. This indeed will be a sight worth eo'i'eT miles to see. An other event held for the first time at last year's camp will be a race between the ladies, in open paddilng canoes, two forming crow for each canoe, th winners receiving handsome prizes.

The principal racers of last promise to be on hand, and among them will be found many new candidates to: racing honors, or in other words "mug hunters." Ford Jones, winner of the trophy cup at Jessup's Neck and Btare Island camps, writes that he will sail "Cannuck" and "take another lling at the trophy." H. L. Quick and T. L. Oxholm of Yonkers will add new laurels to their already long list of victories.

William Wintricghaai in canoe "Seabright," F. L. Dunned in canoe "Eclipse," will endeavor to maintain the great record of the Brooklyn canoe club. Others promising to compete are Paul Butler of Lowell in his new canoe. C.

Marsh, Springfield, Mass. DEATH OF W. SCHRODER. Notable Career of a G. A.

It Veteran Served In the Criiuoau War. William C. Schroder, who died yesterday, as wia be seen by the notice elsewhere, had a remarkable career. He was born in Denmark, Feb. 27, 1829.

When 13 years of age he enlisted in the Danish army and took part in tho Schleswig-Holstein war in the years 1S4S-50, receiving the Danish medal of honor for meritorious conduct in one of the leading battles. At the close of that war he worked about a at his trade as dyer and then shipped for the West Indian, whero he en listed in th9 Danish West Iuiia army, in which he served six ysars. Mr. Schroder and 23 comrades volunteered to join the English army in the Crimean war and were aocepted. He was in the battle of Balla-klava.

Mr. Schroder was discharged as sergeant major from the Dr.n'sh "i.i r.i July 1851. He later retur ne 1 1.. and enlisted on board the United States sloop of war Iroquois and was on boar that vessel in tho battle of Nev Orleans under Admiral Far-ragut. He was ofterward transferred to the army by general order and joined the Burn- side lilies with the lTGth New York regiment.

He served a year and enlisted in Co. Firit New York engineers and helped to build "The swamp angel'' under General Gilmore. He participated in a number of battles, including Ft. Waguer, Ft Pulaski, Olustee, Florida. He contracted a chronic disease and was obliged to go to the hospital.

He did not recover completely but was discharged from the hospital, after which be served a year as general ward master at Hilton Head, S. C. After the close of the war he came to New York city, where ho married, and in he moved to Burlington where he has since lived, acting as pension agent. He was an honored mamber of Stannard post, of which he was adjutant for about eight years, and he also held for two years tho post of assistant adjutant-general for the department of Vermont, G. A.

and he was assistant inspector-general for Vermont under Commander-in-Chief William Warner. Comrade Schroder was a great sufferer for several years from a chronic disease, which took a mora serious turn a few weeks since, and wore him out. He leaves a wife aud child.

The two principal and opposing factors in the business situation in this country at the present time by genera! agreement of au- I thorities are the increasingly favorab'e crop prospects and the remarkable exportation of gold to Europe which has been shown by our telegraphic news going on for the pat few weeks. Almost everybody expecU that the gold will return as soon as Europe begins -O take the supplies of food products which sb will, in a few months, be in such pressing need of.

It is expected that this will create a balance of trade in our favor that will result In gold importations. But until this change conies about the movement gold from our shores must unsettle busi ness in our large centres to a gret.er or less degree. The credit side of the situation fjr out weighs the debit slue, however. A3 was shown in our telegraphic review of trade on Saturday, with a hopeful agricultural out look like that of tho present the demand for manufactured products of all kinds is likely to improve. The prospect cf an immense wheat is supplemented by tho proba bility of a large foreign demand.

The re ported acticn of France in reducing the duty on wheat is accepted as an official admission that the French crop is a failure. Without necessarily accepting the extreme esti mates of the amount of American supplies and the sum of European necessities, there, is increasing probability of a large foreign demand for our grain this year. On the credit side also must be placed the somewhat unexpected harmony displayed by the railroads. Tho threatened cutting of ratts, which always disturbs business, was prevented and the schedule of rates adopted by the executive committee of the Trunk Line association in Xer York on Friday promises well for the continuance of harmony between the great lines. In relation to the general state of trade Bradstreet's special telegrams do not show a general growth in the volume of trade in staples, although there are instances where business is reported quite active aud equal to expectations, even exceeding records of the like week a year ago.

Outside of labor troubles and gold exportation the outlook is encouraging. Personal Property and Taxation. Those resident of Vermont who are inclined to complaiu of the extent to which personal property escapes taxation in Vermont will be interesttd in the progress in taxation reform that is being made in Massachusetts. The Boston Record of Saturday said: Was it surprising: yesterday to so the lo-ver branch of the Lt-gisiHture pass a copied after the New Hampshire and Vermont tax law. compelling i very taxpayer to aiako a sworn statement of his property, and, if he fails to do so.

taxing him doub.e on whatever the assessors can find After hearing the assertions made in debate, it would seem to be a remarkable yote. nearly two to one. It Is no; expected that ihu bill will dually become a law as there viil piwucu influence against it in the Senate, it is i.v peeled, doTeit it. hut the way iu which it received vote is sumrestive 0f the iestivenes is beiu felt throughout tha b.ate ai the way person property is escaping taxation, and any oue who cos heard the ariiimer.t? at the state house the paat fortnight, during which tax matti-rs have been brought up in one way and another, cannot rape Hie conviction that it only a question of a short wht-ii tae tax aws of ihls sttte will te made wry much more stringent thaa tiiey ar at present. t.ituer tne entiro tax on personal property wid be wiped out, or wise the chances are that everything will have to bo returned under a sworn statement, and at personal property will be on somo statu basis iu order to escape the rave inequalities which now exist consequence ol the diCeieat rales of taxa tion in d.lferent towns.

Secretary 1 Tact' Political forecast. From the New York Tribune. A tribune reporter saw Secretary Tracy at the Fifth Avenue Hotel last evening. The secretary said that he thought that the outlook for the republican party had greatly improved in the last few months, and that the orospects of its success were good. He adds that the signs of tho times seem to be pointing toward the president's ronomiua-tion and re-el action.

Southernand Western farmers. From the New York Sun The farmers cf th3 South and "West, or such of them as belong to the alliances and similar organisations, consider themselves to be verv unfortunate aud oppressed rer- ons, and want the government to coddle and cocker them. Let us see what is the trouble with the Southern farmer. Here is the opinion of our esteemed contemporary, the Atlanta Constitution, a most faithful shepherd of the alliance fold: If our Southern farmers do not make monev from now on. it will be because they tsret'er overstock the market with cotton anil send all their money to uiMatit Mates tor food.

The touth has every advantage that she could r- sonabl desire; but we cannot prosper in any line of industry, even under favorable circum stances, guided by strictly busi ness principles. Vermont Farmer Waut More Protection. From the Vermont Farmers' Advocate. It cannot be successfully denied that protection has protected manufacturers more than farmers in the past history of tariff legislation. No one blames the mnnafac- turer for looking out for his own interest, but farmers demand equal protection, that is all.

They are getting better comparative advantages under the MoKiniey bill, with its supplementary reciprocity policy, but let us still have a more generous protection of farming products in future tarilT legislation. Mrs. Slillioa'a Itide. When Mrs. Million coes to ride she travels forth In state.

a a eew BURLINGTON'. M.W 11 1M. Tte live oak tree which President Harrison helped the school children of Boise City, Idaho, to plant in honor of Arbor day will make up in the presidential line for the dead cherry tree made famous b- Washington's hatchet. Judging from the results of tha English elections the paat week it really look as if tha voters of Great Britain had made up their minds to give Mr. Gladstone a decided plurality over the unionists in tha next House of Common.

We "ttempted to credit a paragraph on "Secret political orders in Vermont'' to the Ludlow Tribune in Saturday's issue, but the unaccountable and unoxplalnable types nmae us say Ludlow "Times." Of couise there is no such peter in the State as the last and Editor Crane will undoubt-sdly adroit that there is only one Vermont Tribune. The increment looking to the election of United States senators by popular vote seems to be makirj; some progress. The Pennsylvania House of Representatives has just adopted by almost unanimous vote a concurrent resolution calling for a change of this nature in that State. Vermontors seem to hare teen and to be at present well satisfied with the senators which their Leg islature has given them. The New York Pot thinks Chauncey M.

Dee-v's chances of becoming governor of the Empire State were injured by the lata tunnel accident. On the other band if the "wires'' fail to connect, Hill's attempt to secure another term as governor will surely fail. The locomotive is a new as well as unique factor in New York politics, but it must be confessed that the wire is older than tha Hills. And now a message from Italy says that Sir. Jacques of Newton, who was reported to have been mobbed in Firenze, was not mobbed at all.

He was through a street where some arrests wexe being made and a faw of tha missiles thrown at the cilice rs hit his carriage. The false report was possibly an attempt on the part of Premier Fa'dini to find out by manipulating the ires how retaliation for the New Orleans Vair vvonid be received. The nnr.ouncement i3 made that Gen. J. S.

Clarkson, president of the national republican league, has sold his half interest in the Des iloines Stets Kegister for jJSo.O'oO, while another stateueut is to the effect that he has gone to for the purpose of studying a newspaper which is distributed free fc.nl has grown iuxon its advertisements. Gen. Clarkson'e name, by the way, has been mentioned in connection with a half dc.eu newspapers in New York, and if the above statements are correct he may astonish th9 newspaper world of the metropolis on his return. The Woodstock Standard stated last week that the term "mugwump" was used by a resident cf iU town in 1S32, but our contemporary is completely distanced by a writer in the current number of the Christian Union who says that lbs word first appeared in 1674 or thereabouts in the Algonquin Bible, translated by John Eliot, a miss ionary among the Indians of -dassachu-setts. The word was tben used to designate a military leader, whereas at present it seems to be used to refer to those who sulk in their tents because they are not able to lead.

It must be acknowledged that the term Las degenerated somewhat. Fucle Sam Not a Bankrupt. The democratic claim that Uncle Sam is bankrupt is pretty effectually disposed of by Henry Clews, the famous banker of New York, who is one of the best authorities on financial matters in the country. Ha sava that the fear any intrenchment upon the iraciuonei goia reserve arises only from laok of knowledge as to the treas ury's real condition. He continues: "At the present time there is in the treasury over gold in excess of gold certificates outstanding.

The banks hold 00 0,000 of government deposits; in ad dition to which tha treasury holds about 520, 000, 000 fractional silver and about 15, WJ, 00 against which no certiScates have been issued. Excluding the 000 of gold hold redemption of l-'aite-l Btates notes, here are resource available of not less thin This looks as if Uncle Sam had quite a little money left "in his inside pecket" after all.
