Our Holiday Advertisers.

The demand of the people for holi-
day goods is likely to be well met
Judging from our advertising columns.
Bingham comes out with an offer of
certain goods at cost for one week-a
good chance for purchasers. Howard
& Rowell have just returned from mar
ket with every description of holiday
goods i'll the line of jewelry, stationery
and fancy goods. Fletcher & Co., also
come out with an announcement every
word of which they can back up with
tirst-class goods for the holidays they
are making an excellent display i'll their
windows. Flint Bros. are on hand
will want to look over and then buy
f. & T. Fairbanks & Co. have goods
in variety enough to please everybody ;
goods selected expressly for this sea-
son, and ut living prices. T. c. Spen-
Ger can make Il splendid showing, hav-
ing larger assortment of holiday
''delicacies" than ever before. L. B.
Atwood is prepared to sell such suits
and other furnishing goods for men
and boys as will satisfy any need in
that line. So with all these Opportu-
mites for judicious investment, the
readers of the CdIedOnidn need not fail
of procuring what they want for holt
day or general purposes.

A Mystery Still.

The death of Mrs. Eddy at Montpel-
Ter last Sabbath, removes one of the
good women from earth, and closes a
life here not only full of usefulness,
but one long racked with pain and
mental anguish. In January, 1870,
Mr.. James NJ. Eddy, then resident of
this town, left home for Boston, ex-
pecting to be gone only three or four
days. Not returning as expected, en-
quiries were made at the Hancock
House, where he stopped, when it was
learned that, after stopping there two
or three days, he took his handbag
one morning, and told the landlord,
with whom he was acquainted, that he
was going home. That was the last
trace of him in Boston. 1t was soon
after learned that a day or two after
wards, he stepped into an Office in New
York where he was identified, transact
Gu some business, and went out, and

The first case called was j. B. Oar
ling vs. Z. p. MarcrOss. Marcross had
bought of Darling, at South Ryegate,
in 1874, lot of lumber. Two or three
carloads of this were shipped to WOr-
cester, but the consignee refused to ac
cept it, and MarcrOss himself objected
to it on the ground that it was not as
understandable lumber as he had bar
gained for; and he has withheld pay
ment for it. Darling brings suit to re-
cover the lumber and the charges for
storage and carriage of the same.
Dunnett and E. w. Smith for plaintiff,
May and Bates for defendant. The
case occupied the whole of Wednesday

Decision in n Railroad Suit.

A st. Adams dispatch to the Boston
Journal says that Chancellor Royce
has filed his pro to,ma decree in the case
of Langdon ct al. against the Vermont
and Canada Railroad Company ct al.
1t is decreed that the Indebtedness of
the Receivers and Managers proved
before the Masters, payment of which
is ordered by the decree, constitutes
a charge and lien in the nature of an
equitable mortgage upon the Vermont
Central and the Vermont and Canada
Railroads, their privileges and appur-
tenances, franchise, equipment and all
property claims and assets, superior to
the claims of the Vermont and Canada
Railroad and its first and second mort
gage bOndholders. The defendants are
ordered to pay large sums of money to
the clerk of the court, for the benefit
of holders of first equipment bonds,
holders of incOme bonds, holders of sec
ond and third equipment bonds, for the
Grand Trunk railway, and other par
ties interested. In default of such
payment defendants to be foreclosed
on all equity redemption in the prop
erty above held subject to said claims,
and they are ordered to deed and re
lease all title in the same to w. II. H.
Bingham of Stowe, in trust for the ora
tors and such other trust creditors as
may be entitled. The claim of the
Vermont Central Railroad is dismissed
without prejudice on the objection of
the Vermont and Canada company, be-
cause their accounts as receivers and
managers are unsettled. An appeal
will be taken to the Supreme court.

SuhOcated by Gas.

Judge Bowman received telegram
Wednesday from his brother, w. F.
Bowman, who keeps the Van Ness
House mt Burlington, that w. F.'s son,
Frank, was found dead in bed that
morning, sutfocated by gas. There
was defect in the gas fixture, and the
room was tightly closed. Young Bow
man was sixteen years old, and young
man of promise. The blow must come
with crushing effect upon the parents,
who will have the heartfelt sympathy
of all.

AS was intimated in these columns
last week, the st. JOhnsbury Index has
been sold to Mr.. J. E. Harris of Dan
vile, and possession given the present
week, and Mr.. Howe returns to his for
mer home at Thetford. The price of
the paper has not been made public
1t was offered to Mr.. Earle, without the
press, for 800. Mr.. Harris is IA young
mau, native of Danville, where he
has been practising law for the past
year or two. He is without newspaper
experience. The Index was started
and has run thus far on political and
local prejudices. 1t is now good time
for change in its course, and we have
no doubt such a change will take place.
We certainly hope this is too enlight-
ened community, and this age too
late in the nineteenth century, to sup
port an organ of bosses and political
banjo players, whose cardinal princi-
pies are publicly announced as: moral,
though not severely So"

East HaFdWick.

The fall term of our village school
commenced last Monday. Miss Della
Ford teaches the higher department,
and Miss Estella Ward the primary.
j. j. Campbell has sold his splendid
bay horse to parties in Boston. We
understand that he is to receive $3.50
when delivered
w. S. Bayley has moved from his
farm where he has resided for sixty
years or more into the Fields house at
the head of the street. He has tho
roughly repaired the house the past
season, making it pleasant and home
like. He leaves his farm in charge of
his son, w. II. Bayley.
The schools in town have commence
ed. The one in the Cobb district is
taught by Geo. Perkins, Miss Nellie
Hancock teaches at the Street, Miss
Alice Hancock at jackson bridge, and
Miss Susie Goodrich at the Centre.
VIM. Hyde slaughtered several nice
spring pigs last week. E. d. Paine's

1874 A. Crandall's 339; C. G. Mont
gomery's 344.
John Swallow was quite severely in
jured last week. While standing in
the back part of the wagon the horse
started suddenly, throwing him back
wards on to the frozen ground, striking
on his head.

that is the last that friends ever heard
of him. Mr.. Eddy received fall be-
fore he left home, by which his head
was considerably hurt and his mind
somewhat affected, but it was supposed
he had recovered from its effects. He
was a large mau, about 60 years old,
very reticent, and not one who would
be likely to get into trouble. Whether
he wandered off and persisted, or
whether he was murdered by New
York ruffians and his body thrown off
the dock, probably the final Judgment
only will reveal.

Waterford.

Waterford.
The house and contents owned and
occupied by Charles Hoag, in the west
part of Waterford, were burned last
Friday night. Loss about $4,000, insur-
ed for $500. The cause of the fire is
unknown. Mr.. HOag was awakened
about ten o'clock by wagon passing,
and before going to sleep again he
heard a noise like a slight rapping.
Afterwards he dozed off, and was soon
awakened by a similar noise, only
louder. He got up at once and went
into the kitchen, where he saw that the
wOOdshed was all on fire in the farther
end from the house. The wind blew a
gale, and being alone with his wife,
MIR. Hoag could save but very little.
He went to Cyrus and Willard Hills,
and aroused them, but they could do
but little. The barn, which was on the
opposite side of the road, was not burn
ed, the heavy rain of the day before no
doubt saving it. Mr.. Hoag thinks the
fire must have been set, but does not
know of an enemy. He sells his stuff
at auction the 18th.
