Fair Haven Report to Excessive competition has for some time past made the slate business of this county (Rutland) very unprofitable. The price of "milled stock" has been run down from about 18 cent to 12 cents per square foot. At the latter figure there is no profit in working the stone, while at 16 cents there is little enough. A scheme has accordingly been devised for getting the various concerns throughout this region into a combination with a view to restoring the 18 cent basis. A good many in.

terests must be harmonized, and it is not certain that the desired end can be accomplished, but the leaders in the movement are hopeful, believing that only a little time will be required to bring the trade back upon a paying foundation. Sixteen concerns are in terested in the business in one way or another. The slate industry of this state is one of considerable importance and much interest. It includes several quite dis tinct branches. In this town attention is confined to the production of man tels and other forms for architectural and domestic purposes.

At Poultney, six miles south of here, roofing slate is turned out in large quantities. The manufacture of school slates was begun in 1842 by Col. Alanson Allen of Fan-Haven, who was the pioneer in the slate interest of Vermont, but this branch of the trade was discontinued in 1847 and has never been resumed. A sinrie concern in an adioining village now makes slate pencils. The business in eeneral comprises both quarry ing and while to the latter must be added "marbleizing." It no exaggeration to say that the 3000 people of this little town live on slate, In 1879 out of 94 slate quarries in the Lnited States Vermont contained 31, Pennsylvania standing second with 30, and New York third with only 12.

The capital invested here was $795,000, and the product was wortn ffiioa.bUB, out of $1,529,985 for the whole country. The greatest number of hands employ ed during the year in Vermont quarries was 755, out of the 3,033 in the United States. Ihe industry is cnieny cen. tered in the four towns of Fair Haven, Castleton, Poultney and Pawlet, all of them on the west side of the mountains, close to the New York line, west and southwest of Rutland. A careful estimate of tlie number of men engaged in the quarries and mills of this county is not far trom law.

Onlv one small strike has occurred. That was at West Castleton not long ago, and resulted in ravor ot tne em-plovers. The division of employment the Fair Haven slate industry- is such that while some concerns quarry onlv, sell- their stone to the muls, ana others mill only, buying their supplies, a third class both own and worK quar- ries and operate mills. The pit first opened by Colonel Allen was situated on about three miles irom the village. Slate is still brought from that point, which, however, is about the remotest from the town.

The haul ing from all the quarries is done bv teams. Tlie roads are mostly down hill, and rails would mftke no "With one exception the mills of Fair ilaven are run by water power, the works being conveniently situated onthe banks of Castleton river, a little creek which runs into Poultney river and thence into Lake Champlain at Whitehall. The variety of articles which are sawn or cut out ot slate is almost enu- less. The stone may be quarried in Bona blocks a loot or more in thick ness, and then worked whole or split at will into sheets not thicker than 1-32 of an inch. In cleavage it resembles nothing so much as straight-grained pine or oak.

It is remarkably easy to work with chisel and saw, and yet extremely durable. When marbleized the very highest expert judgment is required to distinguish it trom genuine marble. Mantels and hearths, window trimmings, balusters, billiard-table tops, butter tubs, paper weights and lamp bases are only a few of the things turned out daily by the i air tiaven Marble Marbleized Slate company, (which Col. Allen founded, and which is tlie largest concern here engaged in every branch of the business), and by smaller manufacturers elsewhere. A great deal of slate is shipped from Rut land county in the form of slabs, man tels, to New Y'ork and other places, to be finally put into form for use.

1 he apparatus which Col. Allen set at work was ot nis own invention. It is related that after his machinery got mto operation he sent an agent to Pennsylvania to learn what was in use there, and the reply came back mat tne Vermont equipment was in every particular the best. A CONFEDERATE MONUMENT. It Makes an Old Soldier's Blood Boil and He Calls a Spade a Spade.

To the Editor of the Rutland Herald The rebels claim a legal right to erect this monument, but in truth, they have no more right to raise this treasonable thing than they had to fire on Fort Sumter. It is a justification of treason in marble, or of whatever material it is to be constructed. It could not stand in a Northern State. It has no greater right to stand in a Southern state. By the blood of our slain soldiers it is a rank offense.

"It smells to Heaven," terribly offensive. Some of my regiment, killed by these confederates, Softly lie and sweetly sleep" in the soil of Alabama and were buried by the confederates among their dead, and there they must lie until the resurrection morning. When ordered into life again I do not want them to suffer tlie humiliation of witnessing this proposed confederate monument After a lapse oi a Hundred years a monument to Major Andre was raised in the state of New York, and the people razed it. Suppose it was proposed to raise a monument to Gen. Benedict Arnold in any state in this union it would stand no longer than a guard was kept to protect it.

Gen. Lee and Jeff Davis are far more detestable traitors than was Benedict Arnold. Arnold returned to his first allegiance; they were false to their first allegiance. Davis and Lee were educated at the expense of tlie nation Arnold was not thus educated and not thus guilty of perjury. lliope and trust tne iin Vermont volunteers will have a reunion at an early day, on "the old camp ground" at Rutland, and express our abhorrence of this treasonable project.

I call upon the government of the United States to order a halt in this matter. If President Cleveland is truo to his maxim, Public office is a public trust," ho will stay proceedings on this monu-ment. If he docs not do it, let us do our utmost to elect a president who will preserve the fruits and results of the late war. Mourns H. Cook.

"He is bright and clever, but so insuf. fcrnbly conceited that lie makes himself obnoxious to everybody." i Have you any relatives iu jjusiuu Yes a married sister." Sale of Blood Stock and Other Property at Bridport A Large Attendance aud Good Prices Realized.

At Bridport Wednesday, May 12, the auction sale of blooded animals and other personal property and real estate, belonging to the estate of the late Noble H. Hill, drew an attendance that exceeded 000 people, among them being many from dif tant towns. The bidding was spirited and most of the property realized good prices. Cash was paid for everything. The stallion "Harvester" was bought by W.

G. Allis of $515. Although this animal is 14 years old, he is in prime condition and of high blood. having been sired by "Daniel Lambert," he by "Ethan Allen," he by Hill's Vermont "Black Hawk," he by "Sherman Morgan," and he by "Justin Morgan."

Hill's farmer. He also pur chased the iarming utensils. Air. Nichols has taken a lease of the home place, known as tlie "Black Hawk Stud Farm." Besides members of the familv, the auction was attended by Mr. W.

P. Tyler of Boston, one of the executors of Mr. Hill's will. He savs the estate will settle for a large sum. He declined to name a sum but others estimate some 300,000.

The Evidence Probably All in and the Case Continued Until Today. The evidence in the preliminary hearing of the Parker -poisoning case was probably all put in Saturday, and unless unexpected developments arise the trial will close today. which has been assigned for the argu ments by counsel if they decide to make any.

Realizing that it was prob ably the last day in the preliminary hearing, many visited the house of correction to catch a glimpse of the defendant, while the chapel room was packed with curious listeners, nearly all of whom were women. Although set for 2 o'clock the hearing did not open until after 3 o'clock, and lasted about two hours. The evidence was comparatively uninteresting, in many cases rehearsing the dry details of the story of Parker's sickness. Mrs. Mussey and her daughter, however, managed to enliven things a little, when they testified that Mrs.

Nason threatened to kill anyone who came between herself and her daughter. Town Clerk Spencer was the first witness, producing the record of Mr. Horace E. Nason's death. Dr.

George H. Fox followed him, describing the symptoms of Don Parker's sickness. He found the patient dying, in a state of complete collapse, pulseless, restless and unable to reply to questions. He would toss from one side of the bed to the other and his skin was cold. Dr.

Fox remarked to some one on the steps as he came out, that Parker acted like a man whom he saw suffering from being poisoned with Paris green. Mrs. Harriet Mussey was the next witness. She had been a neighbor to Mrs. Nason and heard her say once that she had poison under her pillow when her husband died, and intended to kill herself.

At another time, when the subject of her daughter's leaving was said that she would kill anyone who came between herself and her daughter. Miss Bertha Mussey, daughter of Mrs. Mussey, corroborated her testimony about Mrs.Xason's threat and the poison under the pillow, but on cross examination could not remember much of tlie other conversation, when these things were spoken of. Miletus N. Paul, constable and collector at Middletowu Springs, was the next witness, testifying to the burial of Parker's remains and their subsequent exhuming.

He came to Rutland the Tuesday following the funeral, and with Mrs. Parker called on Mrs. Nason. At the house Mrs. Nason went over tlie details of Don's sickness to Mrs.

Parker. Mrs. Nason referred to the rumors that he was poisoned and wondered if he could have taken anything poisonous in some bismuth powders he was accustomed to use. Maud suggested that he took two kinds of powders. The bismuth powders were prescribed by Dr.

Brassard. Mrs. Nason also said something about canned fruit that Don ate with his supper the night he was taken sick. Warren McClure was then called and reiterated his testimony about his care of the patient. Mrs.

Hatch was the next witness. She spoke about an incident at the time of Mrs. De Britton's death in November, 1885. Sirs. Nason then told the witness that Dr.

Mead said Mrs. De Britton's body ought not to be kept in the house, as Don might catch the typhoid fever. During his sickness Don asked Maud to take off her shoes in the sick room as their squeaking annoyed him. Mrs. Nason told her to put them on again, for fear she would take cold.

When Don wanted different doctors, Mrs. Nason put him off, thinking that he was not as bad off as he supposed. When referring to Don's plans for going to Boston, Mrs. Nason said she should go too, as Maud and she should not be separated. If Don should die, Mrs.

Nason thought she should die also as "his heart was hers." Maud once said impatiently that she would like to kill Mrs. Parker, her mother-in-law, but the witness and Mrs. Nason reproved her for the remark. Mrs. Parker, mother of the victim, then testified.

When Don was dying Mrs. Nason came into the room and said "Don, haven't I done all I could for you sinee you were sick Don replied, "You have all been very kind." Mrs. Nason then repeated the question, and Don said "How do I know, you have been down stairs, while I have been lying here Mrs. Nason seemed to delight in getting into discussions with Maud in tlie sick room and once Don called out impatiently don't! Witness thought that there was unnecessary delay iu getting things for the sick man, and once when he waited about two hours for ice, he said dear, it seems so everything I wanted was forgotten." Witness once said to Don when he was sick, "I pity you Don if you have got to live with that woman (Mrs. Nason) all your life." To this Don replied, "wait till I get well, mother, Maud and I will have a house of our own and I'll be boss then." Witness told about Maud's squeaky shoes, corroborating Mrs.

Hatch's testimony. Oscar Hill, a commercial traveller, described Parker's symptoms when he died and repeated the remark Dr. Fox made to him about the symptoms resembling Paris green poisoning. Hill was not cross-examined, Mr. Baker only asking, "are you the man about whom the fish story was published in the paper this morning When he replied iu the affirmative, Captain Baker replied, "that all." The state rested its case here.

UNPLEASANT MEMORIES. A Soldiers' Reunion at Bennington which Recalled Some Incidents. Company A of the 2d regiment Vermont volunteers had a reunion and banquet at Bennington Friday. Col. J.

H. Wnlbridge of North Bennington presided, and the speeches revived memories of tlie sad war times. Mr. Ralph Goldsmith was the only civilian present. lie was, however, almost a soldier, for he gave a thousand dollars for a substitute.

At the meeting it was related that when tho boys came home at the end of the war they sent word from Brattleboro (by the stage driver, for their purses were depleted so they did not send a telegram,) that the citizens of Bennington could expect them next day. They hired a four liorso conveyance and camo across the mountains. They entered Bennington with their flag flying, expecting tho whole village would be oiit to welcome them. But what was their disappointment when they hardly met person on the streets. Passing through Main street, tliev sang their war songs people would run to the windows to see what was up and that was all.

Mr. Goldsmith, although a foreign born citizen, sent a note to Cupt. W. II. duly to conio up to his house and make themselves at home.

The captain accepted the Invitation and tho remains of company A were land-lorded by Ralph In such a way the boys never forgot It, and hence lie was the only citizen Invited to their banquet. At the reunion the boys received a flue bouquet of lilies and tendered a unani-moiiB vote for them. There are only two of tho original company tinw llv. lug In tho village, Mr. Andrew Downs nud Mr.

Seven years ago all of a dozen lamps formed on my neck, ranging in Bize from a cneiry stone to an orange. The large ones were fngntful to loot at, and painful to bear; people turned aside when they saw me, in disgust, and was ashamed to be on the street or in society. Pbvaicians and their treatment, and all medi cines failed to do any good. In a moment of despair triea tne cuiicura Kemetues cuii- vuiu, me great omu auu vuuwm iJuajj, an exquisite Skin Beautifier, externally, and Cuticura Resolvent, the new Blood Purifler, internally; tbe small lamps (as I call them) gradually disappeared, and the large ones broke, in about two weeks, disehargiug large quantities of matter, leaving two slight scars in my necs wuay 10 ten me siorj ui suueriuK. My weight then was one hundred and fifteen sickly pounds; my weight now is one hundred and sixty-one solid, health? pounds, and my height is only five feet five inches.

In my travels I praised the Cuticura Remedies, North, South, East and West. To Cuticura Remedies I owe my health, my happiness, and my life. A prominent New orfc druggist asked me the other day, Do you still use the Cuticura Remedies; you look to be in perfect health? My reply was, I do, and shall always. I have ne'ver known what sickness is since I commenced using the Cuticura Remedies." Sometimes I am laughed at by praising them to people not acquainted with their merits, but sooner or later they will come to their senses and believe the same as those that use them, as dozens have whom I have told. May the time come when there shall be a large Cuticura Supply House in every city in the world, for the benefit of humanity, where the Cuticura Remedies shall be sold only, so that there will be rarely a need of ever entering a drnsr store.

Rev. J. M. Gelot, who has been pastor of the French church here for the past 10 years, will be removed July 1 to Poultnsy, andwill have charge of both the Poultney and Castleton par ishes. He will be succeeded here by Rev.

George N. Caissey of Burlington. At a council of French clergymen held in Burlington 10 years ago none of the priests would volunteer to take the Rutland parish but Father Gelot, who was then 24 years old. Today the French Catholic parish is one of the most desisable in the state, and one that any priest in Vermont would be willing to take in charge. Ten years ago there were but 125 French families in town, 75 of whom attended church and the pew rents amounted to about $600 a year.

They were then unorganized and without much ambition in church affairs. It is said that Father Gelot has done more for the French people here than any one man, and being of a charitable disposition, he has always taken an active interest in village affairs. During his stay here he has spent several thousand dollars iu repairs on the church -and entirely furnished the parsonage, besides buying a lot for a cemetery and fitting it up at a cost of over 2000. Today there are over 250 French families in town, and Father Gelot leaves a congregation of over 200 members, while the pew rents amount to about $1200 a year. Father Gelot also had charge of the parishes at Pittsford and West Rutland, while Father Caissey will take charge of Rutland and West Rutland and Father Boylan will take Pittsford.

The French people had become very much attached to Father Gelot, and very much regretted that Bishop De Goesbriand decided to remove him to Poultney. They talked some of making a united effort to have liim retained here, but he would not consent to it on account of his health, which he thinks will be benefitted by the change. Besides doing what has already been mentioned, he had about completed plans for building a new church and expected to begin work on it in August. He expects, however, to take steps at once to build a church at Poultney. Father Caissey is 47 years old, and formerly had charge of the parish at St.

Albans. He returned last month from Europe, where he has been since last August. A Little Girl's Composition. The following school exercise is printed verbatim, and without any correction, just as it was written by a little 12 years old girl, a native of Vermont, but who now lives in Norwalk, Ct. She was only half an hour in writing it and had no book of reference, but she informed her papa that she had thought it well out the night before.

If any of the Rutland girls or boys can do as well as this, The Herald will be proud to publish what they may write A STORY OF A BED BLOOD CORPUSCLE. As I am resting in a piece of tissue to which I was sent, I thought I might as well write my adventures, which are many and varied. I first came to life with many of my relations in a large fleshy room which I came to know was the right ventricle of the heart, then by a sadden squeeze we were sent altogether into a long canal with hard walls (it was the plumo-narv artery) there were so many of its that were all jammed together and I said to myself "I had a great deal rather go back into that nice large room again," bo I ran back asfast as I could but lo, and behold three little doors hatred my way and the more I pushed the tighter they so I gave it up and went hack to my fellows. We then went on into some smaller veins or capilariea aud through the thin walls I conld see the spongy substance called the lungs. On we traveled into an immense vein called the pulmonary vein and from there into a samaller room than the one we were in tirst, presently another squeeze sent us from the left auricle as it is called into the left ventricle and from there into another large artery called the aorta just then I and my companions were startled by a telagraphie message from the brain.

"We are busy with a latin verb and need red bluod corpuscles to to help us about two million of us started for the.brain but we had hardly got half way before there came a dispatch from the arms. "We have been swinging clubs aud have used a great deal of tissue. Come aud help us." "Half of us went on to the brain while the other went to the arm. And here I am expecting to be used up any minute. Ah, here I go 1 the arm has been raised aud I mast die.

C. D. Feb. SI, l(Wi. A Slight Fire.

There was a slight fire Saturday evening in the barn in the rear of the Central house on West, street. Some one passing by about 10.45 o'clock saw the blaze and an alarm was rung from box 47 at the Bate9 house corner, to which the companies promptly responded, but their services were not needed. Some straw and hay in a barrel in one of the stalls was found burning, and although getting well under way a 'few pails of water put it out. J. Si.

Ballou, proprietor of the Central house, was out to the barn shortly after 9 o'clock and found everything all right. The tire was of the same mysterious origin as of the other fires that have occurred here this winter. New Savings Department.
