READrNG.-A steam mill is being put
into operation in Reading by Mr.. Weth-
erbee near the saw mill ia the Brown
school house district, to be used in the
manufacture of small wood work. The
saw mill there is in good repair and for
year or two an unusual amount of lumber
has been got out at that place by Mr..
Wetherbee who is evidently a young man
Of enterprise.
Erasmus d. Houghton near the above
place, is said to have the best sugar house
and apparatus 10 town.
Master Frank S. Written, seven years
of age, thus early begins to appreciate the
press, and has presented US bushel of
nice butternuts. Butternuts and chestnuis
are quite plenty in some portions of YER
mont this year, and the boys are having
a nice time in gathering them. Eks
The people of South Reading find the
store kept by Mr.. NJ. A. Wilder, and
opened there in the old stone building last
spring, very convenient. 1t makes the
place more home-like than it has appeared
before for many years, and we hope Mr..
w. may receive full encouragement in his
enterprise.
The cider mill in South Reading is do
ing quite business this fall, considering
the limited crop of apples this season.
The people of FelchvilIe are feeling
pleasant over the prospect that the factory
burnt there some time since is likely to be
rebuilt, and we notice that Hon. Prosper
Merrill has this week introduced bill in
the Legislature, TO incorporate the Felch-
vile Wooden Co.
Chamberlain &c Keyes are enterprising
merchants in Felchville and all who do
business there will find it good place to
trade.
There is another store in Felchville,
just south of the hotel, but we failed to
catch the name of the firm, while passing
through the place few days since.
Felchville has become a smart and en-
terprising little village within a few years,
and we hope for them continued prosperi-

EYE AND EAR INfiRMARr-For fifty-four
consecutive Saturdays, DIR. Haynes has not failed
to be present at the United States Hotel His
success has been all that he could desire Occa-
sionaly we have handed us a certificate or state
ment Of parties who have consulted him, which
we take pleasure in publishing, The following is
the latest:
DIR. HAYSEs--Deor Sir As my little girl
has got her eye sight again, thought it no more
than just to you and to Others that may have their
children afflicted as ours was, to know that they
may have them cured by applying to you, and
following your directions.
Some time in July, 1865, my little girl three
years old was taken with inflammation in one of
eyes, which lasted about two months, when she
seemed TO get better, but it left sore on her eye
which continued TO grow until it covered the sight
all over, and made her entirely blind, when hear
ing of DR. Haynes we thought of trying to see if
something could be done for her Accordingly
about the frs Of June, 1866 we applied to DIR.
Haynes, and are happy to say that under his
treatment for about three months she is entirely
cured, and her bodily health very much improved.

CHEsTER.-Our editorial fair has been
heavily reinforced this week by most
bountiful present from our steadfast friend
GEO. r. BARRETT of Chester, who has
sent us barrel of splendid apples raised
by him this year on the old Judge Barrett
homestead. He thus expresses his appre-
citation of the press, while we are unable
to find words sufficiently expressive Of the
courtesy extended to us. Our former re-
membranes. from this homestead are of
the most pleasant nature, and date with
the commencement of the TINES, and are
continued by the present manager and oc-
cupant, who has evidently inherited gen
erous nature.
Remember the Fair and Festival by the
Ladies Benevolent Society at Ingraham's
Hall, next week Thursday evening. Use
fol articles will be offered for sale. Hot
oysters and other refreshments will be
provided. The proceeds are to provide
an organ for the use of the Sunday school.
The improvements being made in the
Cemetery have already added much to its
appearance. Much more work needs to
be done this fall and the committee earn
estly request any who have an interest in
it, to join with them and help the good
work along.
The religious revival in Chester is doing
much good. 10 persons were baptized by
Rev. Mr.. Hubbard last Sunday and 81
taken into the Baptist Church. The
meetings continue at the Baptist church
every evening through this week.

Death Of Hon. A. s. Campbell

Our edition on Thur.day afternoon, Of
last week, had been worked off hardly an
hour, when our village was artled by the
announcement of thu death Of Hon ALEX
AMBER S. CAMPBELL which took place at
his residence at about five o'clock. The
announcement was the more startling, from
the fact that he had been seen and con-
versed with by several of his iownsmen
who did business with him at his Office dp-
ring the afternoon and up to within half
an hour of his death. He came down street
at about noon, and remained in his office
duii ing the afternoon. At about o'clock,
he sent nearly dozen business letters to
the Post Office, and continued in bis usual
business till about quarter past four when
DR.. Woods carriage took him home as has
been usual this season. On arriving home
he said he did not feel well, and laid down
on the bed. Soon after he began to breathe
hard and DIR. Whitman was sent for and
though he Immediately responded to the
call Mr.. c., was dead before he arrived,
having his senses up TO nearly the last mo-
ment of his life. He was " years of age,
and death was probably caused by disease
of the heat.
His remains were taken to Montreal for
burial on Saturday last.
The death of Mr. Campbell takes from
us one of the Oldest and most respected
citizens Of the town. He had long held
the esteem and confidence OF his fellow
circle. lie was man Of strong opinions,
but was always courteous and never OBJ
truded them in an offensive manner. Es-
pecially was this true in the practice of
his profession. In all his business relations
he was oLliging and accommodating to the
utmost extent. We have had occasion to
remark this many times during the last
few years, our business with him having
been frequent.
He held the Office of town clerk in this
town for 'hirty-six years, having been
first elected March LIST, 1924, at which
time he succeeded Lewis w. Hubbard,
and held the office till December 80, 1914,
when he resigned and removed to Boston,
where he resided eight years. During
fhis ipfarvo1 tho off,aa xaS hold fr-t bv
Samuel L. Billings, who was elected at
special town-meeting Jan. 2, 1915, to fill
the vacancy. In March 1916 james A.
Willard was chosen clerk, and held the
office till March z, lS49, when Samuel L.
Billings was again elected and held it till
March, 1852, when Mr.. Campbell having
returned from Boston was chosen and held
the Office continuously till his death, being
in all between thirty-six and ihirty-seven
years. At one time he held the office of
Judge of Probate, and when in 1858 the
Connecticut River Mutual Fire Insurance
Company was chartered, he was appointed
secretary of it, and held that Office at the
time of his death. From youth to old
age therefore he mainly spent his life
among this people, and now in the fullness
of years, most sincerely Iamented by his
neighbors and townsmen who knew him
best, be has passed away; and good man
has gone to his rest.

The Legislature.

The legislature adjourned over on Fri
day nominally till Monday afternoon OF
this week but practically till Tuesday. A
bill has been introduced to abolish the
office of County Commissioner. Also to
abolish the office of Bank Com missioner,
which it is probable will pass. Many pri-
vate bills have been introduced as usual.
Senator Simpson of Orleans county is sick
with typhoid fever.
On Wednesday, in the House, Mr.. Ball
introduced bill incorporating the Parks
& Woolson Machine shop Co., and Mr..
Wheeler, of Jamaica, one incorporating the
West River Railroad Co., from Brattleboro
to Jamaica. In the Senate Mr.. Goodhue
presented the petition of Alonzo Datton,
asking that the legal weight of bushe Of
oats be 80 pounds. The House has passed
bill allowing towns with 500 voters a
