FREE DELIVERY.

Post office Inspector Rogers was
here Thursday looking up the mat
ter of free delivery. If the present
rate of receipts keeps up until the
close of the fiscal year on June 80,
st. Johnsbury will be entitled to free
delivery and Postmaster Bowman
will introduce it as soon as possible
after that date Before the system
is inaugurated the houses will be re-
numbered and the names of the streets
put up wherever necessary. The sys-
tenn will probably extend all over the
village limits and three carriers en-
ployed. 1t has been suggested that
the business men be given four mails
daily and the rest of the village two,
but no plans have been made as yet.
Arthur c. Randall goes to Brattle-
boro tonight to investigate the work
ings of the system.

ST. JOHNSBURYLENDS A HAND.

st. Johnsbury people are giving
generously of their substance for
the Danville sufferers and doing it
through an organized channel. The
day after the fire our people began to
carry up gifts of various sorts, and
their presents were gladly received.
On Monday morning flyer was dis
tributed, calling a meeting of the cit
liens to decide upon some substan-
tial way of aiding the people, and
about a dozen citizens gathered in
Association hall Monday evening
The meeting organized with the cleo
tiOn of Franklin Fairbanks, chair
man, and Charles T. Walter, secre-
tary. The entire matter of relieving
the sufferers was left in the hands of
the following committee: w H.
Preston, chairman; Mrs. A. O. Ba-
ker, Rev. Henry Fairbanks, George
r. Crosby, Mrs. Mary M. Boles, Mrs.
D. d. Patterson, Harvlin Paddock,
Mrs. c. E. Putney, Miss Mary A.
Wilder. E. N Randall, A. H Mcleod,
Mrs. Ethan Carr, Mr.. and Mrs. F.
V. Powers. Before the meeting ad-
journed the citizens started the sub
scription by raising 500.
The committee, representing every
section of the town, met Tuesday af-
ternoon and decided to pass sub
scription papers at once all over
town. A circular had been sent into
every house in town, notifying the
people that a team would call for
their gifts soon, and appealing to
everybody to give something. The
committee decided to have all gifts
brought by the team to the Town
hall, and then sent from there to the
relief committee at Danville
The committee are working vigor-
ously and are meeting with a gene
rous response. The subscriptions up
to last night amounted to 1925. A
delivery team started out yesterday
morning for bundles, and furniture,
bedding, clothes and many valuable
gifts have been collected at the Town
hall. Only a few streets have been
canvassed and the work is being
pushed rapidly forward as the needs
of the Danville people are urgent.

DIR. ]. r. Nelson through his at
torneys, Ide & Stafford, has brought
suit against the Boston & Maine

accident near Passumpsic on Jan. 19.
Dr. Nelson was a constant sufferer

Negotiations are pending for set

will not come to trial.

THE OLD FAIRBANKS WAGON.

THE OLD FAIRBANKS WAGON.
A reader of the Ca1edonian, now
far away, furnishes the following in
teresting reminiscence:-
"There is another leaf in the histo-
ry of that old misunderstanding
buggy. There is a missionary in In
dia who was Lois Lee, and some for
ty years ago she lived in the 'Spauld-
ing neighborhood,' and with her
friend, Ellen Bugbee, long since gone
to rest, attended school at the ST.
Johnsbury Academy under Prof.
Colby of honOred memory; and these
two were driven to the school and
back daily, during one term, in that
old 'Spaulding buggy 1t was not,
even in those days, noted for its
beauty, nor for its ease of motion,
but it did its part well toward train
ing a missionary for India; and that
missionary was permitted to be pi-
oneer in female education in the prov
ince of the brave old Rohillas, Just
under the majestic Himalayas, where
when she commenced, no women
could read and write, but where she
now has charge of a girls academy
of her own starting, with $50 girls,
from which many true Christian
young women have been sent out as
examples and teachers of their Sis
ters, so that there are now hundreds
of women it that province who have
been taught directly by the mission
airy in whose education that famous
buggy bore part. Hence the mis-
sionary leaf in the history of the
'Spaulding buggy might be one of
some interest, were it written up"

A large audience gathered at the
South church last evening to listen
to Rev. w. G. Puddefoot. Rev. c. H.
Merrill, secretary of the Vermont
Domestic society, spoke of the rela-
tiOns of the state society to the ma
tional society, and how the former
society was $4,000 in debt. One
fourth of the Congregational church.
eS III the state are aided by this SOci-
ETY.. Fiftv-three churches out of 1913
were without a pastor last year
The largest increase in membership
has come from the weakest churches,
while the five largest churches in the
state had no net increase the past
year.
Rev. Mr. Puddefoot entertained
the audience for an hour with a
graphic account of life in northern
Michigan and Wisconsin. In north
ern Michigan there are $4,000 peo-
pie pouring in every year, and towns
and cities springing up like mush-
rooms. There are towns there that
have been settled II years, and never
heard a minister There are 1000
towns in the United States where the
gospel has never been preached
Since the Sault Ste Marie canal was
4 h a,
of foreigners to this region. All the
riff-raff of Chicago, Milwaukee, ST.
Paul and other western cities are set
Ting there. Everything but the
church of Christ has been established
all through this region.
There are several giants in our
land. One is the vast growing ca
pacity of our cities, and their complex
population. Thirty per cent of our
foreigners land III our cities. Eighty
seven per cent of New York s popula-
ton is foreign born, and it is the
fourth largest German city in the
world. Another giant is the con-
slant stream of emigration from
New England to the western towns
where there are no religious influences
Another giant is the giving of the
ballot to a foreigner so soon after he
lands. 1t is like giving a razor to a
child.
The speaker then gave interesting
and thrilling anecdotes of life in Hur-
lev, Ashland, Washburn and other
cities of this region where vice was
rampant, and every form of crime al
lowed. Many of his stories were
told in his inimitable humorous wav,
yet there was a touch of pathos
through them all. The struggles and
sufferings of the home missionary
were wildly portrayed, and the
speaker plead earnestly for more
funds for this cause In closing Mr..
Puddefoot referred to the rapid in
crease of population all over the land
and how much the future might
bring forth for good or for evil

the street. Mr.. Pierce's loss will

post office was situated was owned

buildings nearer. The house was un-
occupied and worth about 5000.
