TIE VACANT JUDaEsHIP.

1t is the opinion of some who are near
Gov. Dillingham; that he will make no APP
pointment of Judge, but leave the vacan-
cy as it is till the next election. There
are very many lawyers whose friends
think them qualified for the Supreme
Bench, and the Governor may let the
Legislature decide the question. Toput
any man there now would give him an
advantage at the election, by the legis-
lature, over all his rivals. As all the
Judges of the Court are elected at the
legislative session, he may think IL un-
wise in him TO indicate any preference

BENNINGTON. VERMONT
Thursday Afternoon, Sept. IL, 1885,

The high tides on the Atlantic coast
for few DAYS past have been very phe-
nominal and out of the usual order. The
tides damages have been intensified by
a cyclone which arose it the West In
dies and moved northward, many miles
out at sea. The telegraphic communi-
cation is cut off from the summer re-
sorts along the coast, but enough is
known to place the damages into the
millions of dollars, in wharfs demolish'
ed, hotels swept away, etc, The fore
runner of this storm IS said to have beer
the "blood-red Harvest Moon, much
nearer the earth than usual" as it ap
peared Monday evening.

Tariff Literature for All,

The American Protective Tariff
League is publishing a most valuable
series of Tariff documents. These are
prepared with view not only to state
the facts and arguments for Protection,
but also to convince doubtful voters,
whether they are farmers, laborers, mer-
chants or professional men. Each issue
of the series appeals to those engaged in
separate industries, and presents indis-
putable facts, comparisons Of wages
cost of living, and other arguments
showing the benefits of Protection. Re-
cent is. ues include the following:

ing in New England. It is brick struc.
ture and was begun in 1903 This church
is the successor of modest frame build
ing which had done good service during
the closing years Of the last century.
There are many pleasant associations
clustering around this ancient church,
1t is in a good state OF preservation, il
cburchly in its style, with chancel and
tower, the latter surmounted with q
cross, in great contrast to many OF the
early New England houses OF worship
The building was blessed Sunday, July
18th, 1908, and the massive lock and key,
which have been in use from the begin
ming, are still doing service. Several Of
the pictures decorating the inner WALL,
have a history worthy Of notice. The
Netcs says The altar-piece is a beauti-
full painting, representing the crucifixion
of our Lord. II Is more than 100 years
old and was painted in France. Another
painting represents u saint under the pro
lection OF the Blessed Virgin Mary, and
is Of more than life size. 1t was proba'
bly, painted in Spain or Mexico" Our
Catholic readers will be interested in
these things and we regret that the ed.

notice.

In memory Of departed worth and
exemplary piety, we desire 10 give a
fuller notice of the brief life and pre-
mature death Of Mrs. Mollic e. Pobst,
the dear wife of MI II. w. Pobst,
and devoted daughter OF George W.
and Mrs. Mamie Shawver. She was
born on the 18th day of June, 1864,

who was the humble instrument in
receiving her into The church, can
never forget the "timo of refreshing
from The Lord" when sho resigned
her heart and sweet young lifo to the
Christ, the Son of God.
On the 22d day of August, 1883,
she appeared at Che nuptial altar. n
bride adorned for her husband, lean
ing tenderly and ali'outionately upon
the arm of him who was the choice
OF her heart, and in front of the man

dear spot Oh which she had spent
her youthful days, and around which
SO many sweet memories and home
recollections clustered, there under
tho beautiful rays Of the setting sun
Ill the presence of tho home circle
and many friends, she gave her
hand i'll holy wedlock, and there
promised to be II faithful, obedient
wife till death, which promise she
humbly kept till the moment of her
death
But, alas how fleeing were the
moments of her happy, earthly pill
grimage. Little did the writer think,
OF any Of her friends, That he should
be called upon TO writo her obituary
so soon after hearing her matrimo,
mul VOWS. She leaves devoted and
almost heart broken husband, whose
principal thoughts were how to con-
tribute most 10 the happiness of the
being whom he SO much loved; and
who has SO soon been snutched from
his bosom and bleeding heart, by the
ruthless hand Of death. She also
leaves two sweet little children, that

once happy home and took the
sweet young wife and tender and
loving mother, and thus left va

the fond father and mother, through
the cloud of darkness overshadowirg
