structive element sometime last winter. Mr..
Peter Van Bergen, who has the contrac: for
re-shiugling the roof, discovered tina. the roof
boards and shingles adjoining the south west
chimney were very much blackeued by smoke
and heat, and he had the curiosity TO take up
the boards TO ascertain the cause. He found
that the plate had been burnt half off by fire
from the chimney which had been builtagainst
it; and that there was hole from the plate
through the chimney large enough to ADM, his
hand BY which the fire was communicated to
the plate. IF Mr.. Van Bergen had placed on
the new shingles without making an examina-
ton, our capitol next winter would have gone
the way Of all stabb'e. L is supposed that
the fire was quenched when it caught the plate

DEATH sF JuDoE THOMPSON. This distinguished
Judge died at his residence in Poughkeepse, on
the 18th inst, at the advanced age Of seventy six
years.
The following brief sketch OF his life we CLEAN
from our exchange papers in announcing his death.
In 1902 Judge Thompson was appointed Judge
Of the Supreme Court Of New York. BY Gov. Gin
ton. He occupied this station until 1914, when he
took the place Of Judge Ken. as Chie Justice. In
1918 he received the appointment Of Secretary Of
the Navy, in tho Cabinet Of President Munroe,
where he remained until 1923, when he resigned
and was then placed on the bench of the United
States. as one Of the Justices, and continued
to fill that station until the time OF his death.
Judge Thorn pson was associated with the late
Judge Paine Of this State, in holding the Circuit and
District Courts Of Vermont, for number Of years.
and was generally on the ground a. the opening Of
the Court, no,w outstanding his advanced age, and
the distance he was obliged to travel.
lite . esrsne.-hst renarkabIe coincidence, that
both 0fthe Judges and Clerk Of the Circuit and
District Courts of this State, have all deceased
within the last year and half
The following tribute TO his memory, is from the
Albany Argus.
"Judge Thompson was peculiarly fitted by his
extended legal knowledge and his cool and clear
headed sagaci.v for the station, of which he was so
long an acknowledged ornament-while the eminen,
purity Of his life reflected additional lus,ure upon
his public career. The death Of such a man
III US exalted in his official and private relations
will long be lamented public calamity.
