Colder, clearing weather northwesterly
winds.
New York Herald forecssts.-The
Southwestern storm, now central near
Lake Michigan, has increased in force; it
will probably move eastwardly to- day
and cause brisk to high southerly to
southeastly winds, fog and rain of the
Atlantic coasts north Of Cape May. A
cold wave will probably follow the
storm in this section and New England
tomorrow. Temperature fell in the
United States yesterday except in the
Atlantic States; the chief minimum re-
ported was 10 degrees below zero at Fort
Washable Wy. T. the maximum, 20 at
Key West. In the Middle States colder,
cloudy weather and brisk southerly winds
will prevail, with rain, followed by clear
ing and westerly winds. On Friday in
this section colder, partly cloudy to fair
weather and brisk southwesterly to
northwesterly winds will probably pre-
vail, preceded by snow in the northern
parts Of these sections, and on Saturday
fair weather with slight thermal changes,
followed by lower temperature. The
coming "cold wave is not very severe
but will probably be reinforced by an
other cold movement of greater extent
and intensity

Capital TippecanOe Club.

In response to the call of last week a
goodly number of Harrison veterans of
1910 assembled at the grand jury room
Saturday, the 21st instant, and organized by
the appointment of +. p. Walton chairman
and Joseph Poland secretary. The meeting
resulted in an organization as follows
THE name of this club shall be the Capital
Tippecanoe Club, and it shall be composed of
those who voted for General William Henry
Harrison in 1910 and who intend to vote
for his illustrious grandson in 1888. The
object of the club shall be by all suitable
methods to aid in the complete overthrow
of the present national administration, as we
did that of Martin Van Buren, in 1870"
Forty-two names are already appended to
the constitution, and it is confidently ex-
pected that the whole number will exceed
fifty.
At an adjourned meeting, held Tuesday
afternoon, the club was fully otficered, as
follows: President, Colonel L. =. Jewett
first vice-president, L, p. Walton; second
vice-president, j. w. Ellis; secretary and
treasurer, Joseph Poland.
The club proposes to be very largely rep
resented at the grand republican rally at
Burlington on Thursday Arrangements
have been made for special car for the use
of the club, going and returning, so that
the trip can be made with the greatest pos.
sble safety and comfort. The train leaves

Montpelier for the Summer.

The attractions of this place in summer
are well attested by number who regu-
larly come here for the season and by
others who occasionally visit relations and
friends. The pleasing features of the To-
cality are such as to make a good impress
sion upon much larger number of people
when once attention has been attracted.
Here are the beauties of Vermont scenery,
pleasant drives over good roads, easy access
to points of view, delightful picnic grounds
and much else that goes to make a summer
resort enjoyable. The accommodations
afforded by good hotels and boarding
houses are adequate to the comfortable en-
tertainment of all that may come, except
perhaps at the height of the biennial ses-
sions of the Legislature, when their capacity
is well tested.
The Pavilion in particular has this season
been greatly improved by its proprietor, Mr..
Jesse S. Viles. From kitchen to parlors the
work has been prosecuted The latter have
been newly carpeted in velvet and are ele-
gantly furnished. An additional story con-
tains thirty-tive new rooms. The furniture
required for these was taken from the floor
below, which has been furnished with new
oak sets and fine carpets. An elevator, Just
put in operation, annihilates the distance
between floors. A fire escape adds to the
safety of guests. The important point of
drainage has not been overlooked, but the
entire system has been thoroughly over
hauled and the sanitary condition of the
house is as perfect AS can be made by i'm
proved methods The kitchen has been en-
larged and entirely retitted with new furni-
ture and utensils. Mr.. Bemis, formerly
of the Mt. Mansfield House at Stowe, is chef.
Besides these essentials, everything has
been done with view to making the house
pleasant and home-like Among extras is a
dancing hall, into which what was known
as the smaller dining-room has been con-
verted
Outside its walls the surroundings of the
Pavilion embrace much that is fair to see.
The immediate prospect from its windows
and broad piazzas is State street, by no
means unattractive, the state-house grounds
and the well-kept lawn of the Pavilion
itself. Opposite are the insurance building
and the Central Vermont station within
convenient distance. From the upper stories
more distant view of the Winoosk valley
and surrounding hills is gained. All things
considered, the hotel is a most desirable
place of entertainment. For some time,
and especially under the present manage
ment, travellers have made it an objective
point when they have had to stay over
Sunday in the state. What is true of the
Pavilion may be said of other excellent ho-
tells and boardng-houses in the town, and
those in search of summer rest and recre-
alton rarely find place better suited to
their requirements than Montpelier and
vicinity

Obituary..

PATTERSON. John Patterson of
Fayston passed away in the peace of God,
abiding in the love of Christ, July 2, at the
age of thirty-one years. Quiet and un-
assuming in nature and manner, yet of
positive convictions, the subject of this
sketch was young man of sterling charac-
ter, of unblemshed reputation, respected by
all and loved by those who, by closest
intercourse with him, had learned his manly
worth, the beauty and strength of his life
For many months his friends had marked
his failing strength. He had been physi-
cally among the most vigorous, but sue
cumbed to evident weakness of the lungs.
All that loving care could do was done
medical skill was taxed to its utmost. Early
in the season the climate of Kansas and
Colorado, supposed to be more helpful, was
sought but in vain. The disease was set
tied. John Patterson has gone from us,
passed on BEFORE" 10 be with the Master,
whom so recently, he had publicly con-
tossed by uniting with the people of God.
He passed away in the home where he had
come to be the stay and dependence of all
ministered to by loving hands of parents,
brother and sisters, his constant compan-
ions, Though he is sadly missed our loss,
we know, is his gain. E. S. f..
