THE SOLDIERS HOME.
st. Johnsbury and Other Towns Make
Propositions.

Propositions.
A meeting of the trustees of the pro-
posed soldiers home was held at
Burlington Tuesday evening. St.
Johnsbury was represented by Col.
Franklin Fairbanks and Gen. H. K.
Ide. The report of the secretary
showed that there were about rs SOL
diers in the state who needed home.
Proposals were received as follows +:
From citizens of Norwich, to give the
brick building, formerly the main
building of Norwich University; from
Hon. John B. Mead, rendering the nor
NAL school building in Randolph, pro-
vided the trustees would take up a
mortgage Of $500 on the same from
the town of st. JOhnsbury, gift of
$4,000 provided the home be located in
that town from the WOman's Relief
Corps G. A. r. of st. Johnsbury, offer
ing to furnish a room in the home );
from the Windsor Post G.. A. R., offer
to furnish a room from the G. A. r.
Post, Newport, gift of $500 provided
the home be located in that town. The
opinion was expressed that if the trus-
tees should apply for it, the Hunt
place in Bennington of 200 acres, with
building, designed by the late Hon. t.
w. Park for a home for aged and des-
titute women, would be transferred to
the trustees of the soldiers home, and
that it would be worth as much to
them, for their purpose, as a gift of
$4,000 or $4,000.
From the above it will be seen that
so far as positive offers are concerned
st. Johnsbury is ahead. A committee
consisting of Gen. Wells, ex-GOv.
Proctor, Major Grout and Col. Estey
was appointed to visit the various sites
proposed. Maj. Valentine, Col. Fair
banks, Col. Estey and Maj. Grout
were elected as finance committee and
Maj. Stearns, Hugh Henry and Frank
Kenfield were elected auditing COM
mittee. 1t was voted that the next
meeting be held at Montpelier at the
call of the president.
During the meeting Col. Fairbanks
introduced a resolution that was unan-
imously adopted that it is advisable
to proceed at once, or as soon as may
be, to establish the home under the
provisions of the law. Gen. HI. K. Ide
offered resolution which was unani-
mOusly adopted, that the treasurer
shall be instructed to invest all mon
eys coming into his hands where they
will be earning interest.
While St. Johnsbury made the best
positive proposition the Bennington
scheme if perfected seems likely to be
the most promising of them all. Mr..
Wells is in this vicinity now and the
matter will probably be pushed to a
final decision at an early date. 1t is
understood that a number of places in
this town have been bonded and can
be got for a location. Among these
are the Buggy place in Paddock viii
lage, the Henry Ross place between
here and the Centre and land owned
by Col. w. p. Fairbanks on the other
side of the Passumpsic.

Of Interest, Though Far Away.

Papers have been received annOunc-
ing the marriage of Miss Mary w.
Tyler of Natal, South Africa, to Rev.
James Gray, Presbyterian minister of
Harrismith, a town some 20 miles
from Umsindusi, Miss Tyler's home.
The bride is most pleasantly remem-
bered by the people in this town where
her home was for several years, and
where she now has two brothers and a
sister residing. The marriage took
place in the open air, upon the lawn
adjoining the mission house, under the
shade of trees planted at the founding
of the station forty years ago by Rev.
Lewis GrOut, Vermonter. The cere-
mony was performed by Rev. Josiah
Tyler, father of the bride, and one of
the Oldest missionaries at Natal. Be-
sides many missionaries and English
and American friends, some 300 natives
were present, for whom thoughtful
provision had been made by Mr.. and
Mrs. Tyler. When the bride and
bridegroom left in the carriage for
their home they received showers OF
rice and fervent good wishes, and the
natives were especially demOnstrative
in their leave-taking of one to whom
they had become so warmly attached.

Concert by the Blind.
Lovers of good music will not fail to
hear the blind musicians from Boston
Friday evening. They come very
highly recommended for skill and long
experience, and are giving their ser
vices to help raise the necessary funds
for a new branch of the school, viz,
that for accommodating little blind
children who because too young can
not enter the regular institution. Those
who have heard wonderful and almost
incrednlous stories about the prsficien-
cy of the blind in music, will have ar
additional reason for seeing for them
selves. Let these young men expert
ence a hearty welcome. On the inside
pages will be found an article on thil
noble charity from the pen of Georg,
William Curtis. 1t is commended t.
