Stone of Montpelier, became possessor of some extra Bne residence property, A. P. Wheelock being the seller, the transfer coveriug that portion of the Choate land just north of and ad joining Mr. Wheelock's "Dorchester IIeightB"summer residence property, and includes the one contemplated ''hotel" site. It is an ideal location for a home and easily accessible to all parts of the village. Mr. Stoie will improve his purchase with a view to building a substantial rehidence, and when coae he will have grounds that will rauk among the finest in northern Vermont. This leaves Mr. Wheelock the land abuttingon Maple street, west cf Mr. Stone's purchase, which will be plotted and streets opened up, besides a large tract to the north, which should in the course ol a few years be occupied by dwel lings of the better class. If anyone can accomplish it, we know of no one better fitted to do so than Mr. Wheelock. ' Republican Kally at Jolnnou. lion. John Barrett, Minister to Siam under President Cleveland, will speak at Johnson Friday evening, Aug. 24. Mr. Barrett is sent beie by the National Republican Committee, and Lamoille County is fortunate in getting bim. He will speak upon " Expansion " aud American interests in the Pacific and the far Fast. Mr. Barrett has written various articles on Siam and other Asiatic countries, includingChina, which have attracted general attention. He in an interest ing speaker and his address will not be campaign buncombe, but Solid facts and information. Postponed Kvents. There are two outdoor accessions that Morrisville people take especial pride in and look forward to the dates with expectancy knowing that pleasure, profit and good will come by attending each, and these are the Lamoille County Fair and the M. E. Campmeetiug. ! The Campmeetiog alwavs precedes Ithe Fair, usually comins? the middle of Auuust aud continuing one week iUHlwiug no nuciiuiuia lilljiuiy irom the St. Albans District. The society was organized many years ago and I has grown in popularity with the ad vancing yenrs, the grounds being a j iilpHHtint place to spend an outing, as I fell as to farther the Master's work. (This season mnkps a break, owing to i the presence of an epidemic disease in neighboring town, and other sur rounding localities, the ending ot ybich pannot yet be determined, pru dence seeming to dictate either the postponement or the canceling of the ( ampmeeting. This latter ha been (ione, as the action of those in au iboiity was for ''indefinite postpone ment" for this year. It was not a I leasant decision for them to make, l utin a time of uncertainty, where l abtic health is concerned, and to prevent a possible spread of a disease held in abhorrence by many people, made possible by the mingling to gether of persons from many locali ties, the wisest course has probably h ien adopted . THE FAIR. A no less venerable and popular p lbhc institution to tie held in abey ance for a similar cause is the post al jnement of the Lamoille Valley Fair tiat was dated for Sept. 5, 6 and 7 t o the grounds north of Morrisville, tltough it is to be hoped that condi tions will be so changed as to permit y being carried out later on during thje balmy days that later September or( early October generally brings tare in northern Vermont. To make itmore authoritative and save the asking of a thousand or more useless arid needless questions, space is given tii a statement by ex-Gov. Hendee, which is a8 follows: '!0n account of the smallpox which exists in Hard wick and othtr loci lities it has been lidded not to bold the Lamoille County Fair Sept. 5, 6 and 7 as advertited. II con ditions aie favorable it will be held later, nrohably the last week in Sept. or flrut wet k ft ; as to this, amp e nonce in the papers Qj tipsters will Le given. TJjeoj- Geo. W . He.ndee, President. IPhe decision in both cases has taused a good deal of disappoint ment, and while President Hendee bas been assured by the State Board it Health and local ' Health Officer that it is probably safe to follow out the original dates for the Fair, he feels inclined to the postponement, instead of running any chances, and that such a course will better meet the public feeling. Of course there is no danger here, but the bringing to gether of thousands of people from far and near, changes the conditions and it is belter to be on the safe side. The Kepubllcan Campaign Flag was flucg to the brei ze last Friday ferninst Col. Doty's store to give the people a glimpse of ' Old Glory" in grand proportions, and also allow those having the matter in charge a chance to see if any changes in rais ing or lowering it were required, prior to the rally that would set the oace for the coming campaign. This flae raising date is set for Thursday evening, August 16, at 7:30 o'clock on Main street, after which will come the exercises at Town Hall., "Hon. H. H. Towers will make a Bpeecb, after which will follow other speakers, it being determined to make the event a sort of a Republi can love featt, to give vent to the pent up political emotions cf the past four years, when Vermont gave its banner Republican majority. All fvant to be there, briugirg the women folks, who are equally inter ested in good politics, though they cannot vote here in Vermont. May, sunie day, though, and this will be a eood time to commence observation work, and se how the men act. No Smallpox iu MorrUvllle. By the Burlington "Daily News" of last Saturday it was apparent tnac Moi.tpelier bad become a suburb of Mornsville or vice versa. Of course it was notintetit onal, butsuch publica tious.even though it Declassed as news items, are not calculated to restore confluence. People here knew that it was not truthful, and only cared for itseffert outside, and the preventing of outside people from coming here. If there was any real danger, strict 1'iarentiue would be brought into lorce and people prevented from going or coming. Business is going on as usual and our citizens are as happy as the average of mortals and expeet to remain so. i It is, And has been tor some time, tion neriod in Morrisville.

Summer travel at Stowe is now at its height. There are many visitors there, both at the pleasant and healthful village as well as at the hotel on Mt. Mansfield, besides at the numerous farm homes. Mark Love joy, of the Green Mountain Inn, has a house full of city people and Stowe is quite like it was in the olden times when the big hotel was "on earth" and filled with guests. The electric road has been a wonderful help to Stowe; it has made the place easy of access and people never tire of the Green Mountains, its vigorous air and pure water. Stowe is the Mecca for all these. HYDE PARK. See that your name is on the check list. Miss Grace Dolan of St. Johnsbury is visiting at Judge Sherwin's.

Time is passed and the Trustees say the law will be enforced without delay. The Democratic caucus will be held Friday evening next at 7:30. Besides those names we mentioned last week we hear that Frank Strong haa many friends in his party who would like to tee him nominated. The vaccination business, which has been indulged in quite exten sively, is on the let up just now. Quite a number feel the effects of the "working," while on others the im pression has been light. The man who predicted a drought has missed his "cackerlashen" this summer sure. The "oldest inhabit ant" doesn't recollect such a down pouring of rain as we have bad this summer, and the end is not yet. Perry Foster lost his cow Sunday last. A subscription paper to aid him to secure another has received numerous signatures and brought into him about $30.00. This cornea very acceptable as this is the second cow he has lost. Lewis Whitcomb has tecured one of those full-blooded pups from up Green River way and is now spending his spare time in bringing it up in the way it should go. There prom ises to be considerable strife between Lewis and Jinks Strong as to whose dog will make the best hunter. We publish elsewhere an article on "scandal" from an exchange to which we call especial attention, not that we believe there are any more scandal mongers in Hyde Park than anywhere else, but that the few here might derive some benefit from read ing it. In fact, it is good reading for everybody. Miss Ellen Fitch was thrown from her wheel last Sunday afternoon while coming from E. G. Sherwin's. She was taken to Dr. Genge's for treatment and shortly after went home. The accident proved to be not as serious as at first feared, as aside from a bruise on her forehead she is now all right. We trust that every loyal Republi can will make an effort to attend the caucus next Saturday evening so that there will be a full and free dis cussion of the merits of candidates for Representative. A solid Repub lican front must be presented in September. This is a jear when a full party vote is needed and the caucus is the plat e to give expression to individual choice. The Republicans of Hyde Park will have a rally at this place next Fri day evening. The speaker will be Vermont's next governor, Hon. W. W. Stickney of Ludlow. Mr.Stickney is a very forcible speaker aDd will give us a good address. Everybody, including tbe ladies, are invited to come out. Exercises will begin at 8 o'clock. Don't miss this, the only rally we shall have. C. II. Crane took an impromptu ride down the line one day last week. He jumped on to the caboose of a freight train at the depot, just to have a little conversation with a friend, expecting that the train would stop at the bide house as it usually does. On this occasion, however, it did not, but instead got under rapid headway while passing that institu tion. Crane chnssed around the car a few times, gave a couple of war whoops and rushed to the door with a view of jumping off, but be ing not jet ready to give up the hotel business, he finally concluded the best thing to do was to Bee a man down at Johnson, and was about to pull out his mileage book to pay for enlorced transportation when an air brake on one of the cars broke, com pelling the train to stop down by Tom Moore'e. Crane jumped off and walked home, reflecting upon the un certainty of certain things.
