Nomad of UH> Boston STonln* Transcript hast coma upon a moat curious not* about *£* poor and th* rich. and tb« f**r of tn* paupor and having to support him. in a Vermont paper. Mr. F. P. Walls, the accomplished historian ofLNew- hnry, Barnet and other Vermont towns. in a man who is always studying the early social condition* of the com. munition of which he has become the historian, and with regard to this he contributes an Interesting note to the St, Johnsbury Caledonian. J3e says that about 300 years ago there was in effect-'-or pretended effect—in the Veiv mont communities, the practice o f‘offi- dat “ warning out of town.” This meant that when the selectmen thought that some person or persona in. the towu were likely to become pub­ lic charges, they were empowered to have the constable leave at their places■ o f abode a “precept” op notice warning the parties whose names were on the summons to "depart the town,” Jt appears that In some cases :ft was easier thus to warn these persons than to make them get out of the town; and there Was one case in St, Johnsbury . which affords a curious commentary on the law. In 1$1S “Joseph Fairbanks apd family” were thus warped out of St, Johnsbury,' They did pot go; and Mr, Write is justified in remarking that had the* taken - the hint that they ' were undesirable citizens, and depart­ ed the town, “ It would have made some 'difference to §t. Johnsbury," for the de­ scendants of this same Joseph Fair­ banks built up the scales Industry Upon which all the present prosperity, and certainly much more than half its population, is founded, besides endow­ ing" the town with libraries and other possessions arid making it more or less famous all over the world. Certainly the. Vermont selectmen were poor judges of ‘‘gumption.” They warned off the - Fairbanks, and no doubt cherished certain citizens whose progeny at the present time never would be misseddn the community.,Mr, Wells tells of another case of warning out' o f the town, this time at Barnet, Vfc. .A, man who had recently come into the town died in the year 1818, leaving -h wife and five children, and the selectmen,- seized, with a panic lest the town ifbuld have to support the family, duly warned the widow to "takaher offspring and depart the .town. Mr, Wells adds: '"Whether the widow obeyed the precept or pot I do riot know, ad neither records nor tradition have any furthermention of themhere,, hut from what I know of .the lady she Was abundantly qualified'to take care of herself In Barnet or anywhere else, and the sequel show* that the children were equally able to ‘keep off the town,’ One of these children became a noted physician in NewYork; anoth­ er was a lawyer In Buffalo, and a grandson was a prominent member of the convention which nominated grove? Cleveland for president In 1884 and-seconded his nomination; ope of the. daughters married a lawyer who later, was a member of the supreme court of New Hampshire; ,a second be-, cam e a noted teacher amt principal of a ladles’ school. ,..The third daughter, I think, died young.?’ “The Devil's Organ.” Ih Diamond cave In Newton epunty. Arkansas, one of the. innumerable cav­ erns of' the .Ozarks, • are many stalac­ tite formations. At one point the sta- lictltes, suspended from the roof of the cpve, possess a strange variety and melody of tone. Those who have visited the cave say that these stalac­ tite* can be played upon as one plays upon a xylophone, and that the re­ sultant music Is unqsually sweet'. The place has been called “The Devil’s Organ.” Diamond cave is about three nnd , ©ae-half miles from Jasper, county seat of Newton. The cave has been ex­ plored to a length of mote than three miles. /How much farther It extends .between the Ozark ridges Is not known. At one point In It are many mounds, presumed to be the burying place* of Indians in bygone ages, In Corncob cave, also in Newton county, the earliest settlers found great heaps of corncobs, apparently an accumulation of many years. Yet bo com wa* grown by Indians ih the Vicinity. " Plano Had Been Covered Up.
