DEATH OF TWO EX-GOVERN
ORS OF VERMONT.

EX-OOV. dlIdUu Hail OIL DSuuluS-
ton died suddenly at the home of his
son, Charles Hall, in Springfield,
Mass, on Friday, Dec. 18th, about
10 o'clock.
He was born in Bennington, July
20, 1895, and was, therefore, in his
DIST year at the time of his death.
Gov. Hall had filled large space in
the history of Vermont, and had
contributed much in preparing the
history of the state, prominent in
which has been his work in behalf of
the Bennington battle monument.
He was admitted to the bar in 1919,
elected 10 the state Legislature in
1927, was member of Congress
from 1888 to 1912, state bank COM
missioner from 1843 to 1916, was
four years judge of the supreme
court, in 1850 was appointed second
comptroller of the United States
treasury, from 1851 to 1854 was
land commissioner for California,
was governor Of Vermont in 1859
and 1860, succeeding Gov. Fletcher,
who survived him less than twenty
four hours. Gov. Hall was dele
gate to the peace congress- held IN
Richmond, Va, in FEBRUARY, 1861 :,
and was president of the Vermont
Historical society for twelve years,
and the author of a history of Yer
mont. He was an active worker in
congress, and John Quincy Adams
alluded to him in his diary as having
"fayed" congressman Gillner of
Virginia on the question Of fraudu-
lent revolutionary claims, contest
which lasted two sessions. He was
also a co-worker with Adams for the
right of petition and against the at
tempt to suppress The pamphlets
which the slave holders considered
''incendiary documents" in the south.
In his first message to the Legislature
in 1858, speaking upon national af-
fairs, he thus alluded to the bred
Scott decision, that the black man
had no rights that a white man was
bound to respect:
There is reason TO hope that the
extra judicial opinions of the MAORI
ty of the judges in the bred Scot
case, contrary as they are to The
plain language Of the constitution
to the facts of history and to the die
tates of common humanity, viii
meet the fate which has attended
those of the judges in the paren
country, and that liberty will b,
eventually established in spite o
them.
During the past few years he ma
spent his winters with his son a
Springfield. The attention of tn
family was attracted by a noise i
his room, where he was found on th
floor, where he had fallen fainting
He regained consciousness, however
and retained it almost to the time o
his death at 10 o'clock. His remain
were taken to North Bennington O
Saturday, where his funeral was al
tended on Monday, Rev. Isaac Jer
nings. pastor of the old First Churc
of Bennington, officiated. The rt
mans were laid ut rest in the oil
revolutionary cemetary on Bennlns
ton Hill, by the side of his wife, an
also by the side of and in line vii
three governors and their wives
Moses Robinson, Isaac Tichenor an
John s. Robinson-making four e.
governors and ali of Bennington
Such another instance probably do
/ not exist in the country.

The Boston Shipping List in its
general remarks on the business out
look says: Reports from various
parts of the country are of a salts
factory tenor in regard to the distri-
button of fall goods, and the situa-
ton generally, though rather quiet
in spots, is as good as could be ex-
pected for so near the close of the
year. There are several promising
features, and the prevailing feeling
among the merchants and manufac-
turcrs is that the new year will bring
with it an improvement in every de
partment.

The war in the Balkans is at an
end, for the present at least. 1t is
reported that the Servian troops have
been withdrawn from the Widdin
district and that Prince Alexander
will disarm, on condition that Servia
will indemnify Bulgaria for her
war losses. The sultan of Turkey
has appointed Prince Alexander gov
ernor for life over East Roumelia,
with rights of succession Bulgaria
has accepted conditionally the pro-
posed commission of the Powers on
demarkation of frontiers

CHRISTMAS.

Sui loGtuio 10 lue WOIlO . uOllutty.
Other holidays are local, and are
mostly memorials in the history of
the country where they are observed;
but Christmas is more ancient and
honorable it belongs to no one ma
tionaly, but its fame and observance
are as extended as christianity,
whose birthday it celebrates. All
through the ages, since angelic song
sters announced to the wondering
shepherds, watching their focks by
night on the plains of Judea, the adj
vent of a Saviour, this festival, ''the
birthday of a world redeemed has
been commemorated with mirth and
song. The day has been considered
in the double light of holy COM
memoration and cheerful festival.
1t has been a common tradition that
Christ was born IN the middle of the
night, and so in the old countries the
celebration of the Christmas festival
begins at midnight. In Roman Cath
Ollie countries, where the observance
is largely of a religious character,
| the Christmas is ushered in with
three masses, one at midnight, the
second at early dawn, and the third
in the morning.
In Germany, where the day is OBJ
served by all classes of the people
with mirth and festivity, it opens
with the singing of Christmas carols,
that recall the songs of the shep-
herds at the birth of the Christ. In
all countries where 1t Is observed, il
Is at once religious, domestic and
merry-making festival.
While Christmas is a universal
holiday throughout the christian
world, it belongs especially, and by
general consent, to the children
With them in all countries it is per
petual delight, for the memory of thu
Joys and gifts of the last festival al
ways remains fresh, and Is livet
over again, until it interlints witt
the joyous anticipations of tn
Christmas to come. The patron sain
of Christmas bears different names il

immense source of revenue these diff
ferent ranches are capable, according
to locality, of producing sugar and rice,
vineyards and fruit orchards, and are
also suitable for small farms or larger
grazing tracts.
One of the main things to be taken
into consideration, in the present offer
Of the company, is, that each and every
one of the properties embraced in the
scheme is at the present time paying
property, Another feature to be looked
at is, that no matter how poor man
may be he can enter upon the land
offered and by his own labor and enter
prise can not only make living, but
can lay by enough money to purchase
in few years, on the installment plan,
the homestead upon which he lives,
thereby rendering himself and his
family independent.
The scheme is a gigantic one but
it is backed by men Of sterling
moral and financial worth, who will use
every endcavor to carry it through to 3
successful consummation. Embracing
as it does an estate containing 63,a5c
acres of land in fee simple and 5a,5oc
acres of leasehold land, it is scheme
that necessarily calls for foreign immi
grafton and home support. What one
man may do for the development o
these Islands has already been seer
and appreciated by many; what ar
organized company of our best citizens
can do, with the proper support from
Nhe Government, will by far eclipse any
li&tance Of private enterprise and vii
optn up and develop the resources o
HaVaii until public debts will not onl.
be aNhing Of the past, but Money tC
Lends will be posted in every doorwa.

--
The attention Of our readers is invitecAto the
very liberal offer made by us, in another
column, to furnish any Of the articles specified
therein, together with six months subscription
to the DAILY Honolulu PRESS, at ein6 rats,
which are much less than II the publications, or
articles, were ordered separately.
We desire to introduce our paper into every
English-reading Family in this Kingdom,
feeling assured that it will be permanently
retained after its merits, as live, wide-awake
journal, are once known
As an advertising medium the DAILY Ho-
NoLULU Press possesses advantages,
having retained all the subscribers to the late
Saturday Press in addition to new subscrip-
ton list which IS daily increasing, so that the
paper is not only enjoying large circulation
in this city and vicinity, but is, also, mailed by
every steamer tb subscribers at almost every
landing on the bther Islands and also to for.
eign countries, thus combining the advantages
Of both daily nd weekly editions. The
coming month, especially, our paper will have
much larger circulation than all the othe'
daily papers combined, as we intend sending
specimen copies to every resident on these
Islands who reads English.
We, therefore, ask your cooperation in oui
enterprise and trust you will avail yourself o
1 this offer. Very respectfully yours, ETC.,

A very ingenious contrivance1s being
affixed to boat in BrooklynAand is
said by naval officers stationedAt the
Brooklyn Navy Yard to be adaptable
to many other things besides serving
to propel boat. for which it has becp
designed, and will soon be tried. The
object of the experiment is to find out
whether or not the feasibility of pro-
pelling vessel for any length Of time
oy electricity can be attained. The
model on which the experiment is
shaped somewhat like torpedo boat,
and the batteries are in the centre Of
the vessel. Great secrecy is being OBJ
served in all the movements OF those
concerned in her construction, and it
is claimed that if they succeed vessel
can carry fuel enough, in the shape Of
acids, to last her for year without
going into any port, doing away with
the Inconvenience of stopping at coal
ing stations, as steamers have to do at
the present time.
