RECENT DEATHS.

y
Newport died at the residence of his
son, M. E. McClary at Malone, N. Y,
Sunday, July 25, of heart disease. He
had been visiting his son for about
three weeks, and his death was wholly
unexpected until near the ,end. Mr..
McClary was born in GrotOn, but fOI
many years had been a merchant at
Newport. His age was 66.
HOusToN.-Charles Houston, for some
years resident of ST. Johnsbury and a
native of Hanover, N. H., died at his
home in Waterbury, Conn.,, July %, at
the age of "a. He left st. Johnsbury
about year ago. The cause of his
death was a paralytic shock some three
weeks ago from which he never rallied.
A number of children survive him,
among them Isaac Houston of this
place.
HALLETT.- Hallett passed
away on Friday morning, July 80, in
the 10Th year of his age. Mr.. Hallett
was born in Westminster in 1907, and
removed to St. JOhnsbury in 1899,
where he has since resided with the ex-
ceptiOn of two years, when he lived in
Lyndon. He built the house at the
head of the Plain where he died in 1S4I,
and this was ever after his home. To-
gether with his wife he united with the
North church in 1889, and at the time
of his death was one of it's oldest mem
bers. He was always a very active
and stirring business man, and never
happier than when his hands were full
of work. In fact he could not be idle,
and up to the last year of his life his
form was one of the most familiar on
the street and in the church. In Jan
uary last he had severe shock of pa
ralysis, but even that could not confine
him to the house but all through the
present summer he has been seen riding
out in pleasant weather. On the Mon
day before his death he was taken viO-
lently ill and died after four days of
suffering. Mr.. Hallett was one of a
family of IA children, all but two of
whom are now dead-Mrs. Nathan Aver
of Concord, N. H., and Mrs. Goss of
Worcester, Mass. Among the brothers
and sisters now dead, all of whom once
lived in this town, are Edmund, Ather-
ton, Gideon, Freeman. Marceua, Otis,
Ruth, Lydia and Sabina. Mr.. Hallett
left beloved wife to whom he had
been married Sc years, and two sons
George w. Hallett of Kansas City and
Riley c. Hallett of Chicago. The for
mer, with his wife and daughter were
present at the funeral, and also Mrs.
Riley Hallett and son. The son George
will probably remain with his mother
for the coming year. Mr.. Hallett's life
was insured for $4,000.

There are one hundred and ten drinking
saloons in Camden where liquor is being
sold in violation of the law. This state of
things is due to the action of City Councils
at its meeting on Tuesday of last week
in refusing to grant renewal of any licen-
SEES. All these licenses expired on the last
day of the year and the saloon-kccpers are
now violating city ordinance i'll selling
liquor without a warrant None OF them
have closed their places and the Mayorand
Chief of Police state that they will not pro
coed against the liquor men until after the
adjourned meeting of Councils, which was
held last night, when the licenses again
came up. The license fec Is $500 and the
city derives an annual revenue from this
source of about $25 600. As the municipal
appropriations were made last June with
the expectation that this sum would be
paid in during the present month it is evil
dent that if Councils refuse to grant licen-
ses there will be deficiency in the City
Treasury The liquor-sellers are confident
that compromise will be effected and the
licenses passed at the Council meeting, but
the Prohibitionists hope to profit by dis
sension among the Republicans as TO grant
ing a license to prominent republican
saloon-kceper who kicked over the party
traces last fall aud helped elect Demo-
cratic Register OF Deeds. 1t was stated by
n Republican Councilman who voted
against the liquor men at the last meeting
that threats of bodily harm had been made
if he and the other members who voted
AGAINST license did not support it at the
next meeting.

MARI as "a Fertilizer.

The discovery of the value of mari as n
fertilizer is said, on the authority OF an
old resident Of this state, to have been ac-
eidentallv made by Sarah and Mary lnskip,
children of Abram Inskip, one of the old
English settlers of New Jersey. The home
of the pioneer was in Camden county,
about quarter of mile from the Burling-
ton line. The house has long since been
torn away, and many tons of mari have
been dug from the place where it stood.
These two little girls while playing one
day, took quantity of mari, or green
sand" as they termed it, and laid it out iii
the form of a pitcher on the banks OF a
small stream on which they were playing,
and where the mari strata cropped out at
the surface. AS a consequence the rank
Indian grass was killed ont and there came
np in its place solid bed of white clover.
The girls called the attention OF their
father to the strange circumstance, and eN-
periments were made which soon establish
ed the value of mari as a fertilizer.
Millions of tons of mari have been used
each wear in this state for the past fifty
wears. and its effects have been found to be
conal to the best artificial manures. 1t is
sometimes hauled as far as twenty-five
miles in wagons, occupying two or three
DAYS III making the trip for one ton OF
mari Besides this there has arisen within
the past few years great demand for
mari outside of the state, and it is shipped
by rail to many places both in and out OF
the state. long distances from the places
where it is dug from the earth
The marls found in the state diiier very
much in quality, however, as well as ap-
pearance. some being almost worthless
while others are rich with the remains Of
dccayed herb-eating animals, marine rep
tiles and fish. The deposits are stratiiled,
the beds consisting of what are termed
upper. middle and lower strata, ana u Is

a Friendly saii,

On New Years Day a number of the
neighbors and friends of J. Wesley Thomp-
son, of Courses Landing, met to help him
kill his pen of hogs, and after completing
the labors of the day it was arranged that
an adjournment be had to the NJ +. par
sonage, at Sharptown, which programme
was carried out and the parsonage was in
vaded in the evening by a happy party
bearing refreshments galore. Rev. Mr..
Clark was absent, but his good wife re-
ceived the guests and on the arrival of the
pastor about p NJ he found the inyad-
ing host in full possession of his domicile.
Music, singing. reading and other exer-
cscs caused the hours TO fly swiftly by
and the company retired leaving with the
stocked cellar and lardor
