pitality accorded to Aaron Keller
Post, No 81, Dept. of Vt, as the

greet was expressed that a larger
number of ladies had not accompan-
led our Post,

Do you ask, e. Where can do this and
have my money absolutely safe ?" Let
us give you some facts. The Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co. of
Hyde Park is an institution run on the
following principles =
1st. Not dollar is loaned without
the personal knowledge of some one of
the Board of Directors that the loan is
safe beyond question.
ID. 1t is run as home institution
Every dollar is loaned in LamOille and
adjacent counties. and every worthy en-
terprise in the vicinity of the towns
whence the deposits of the Bank come,
is fostered and encouraged in preference
to other investments, so far as it can be
done with absolute safety.
Sd. Under no circumstances is dol
lar invested in any western mortgage OF
other out-of-the-State security. We
might perhaps pay our depositors one
half of one per cent. per annum MOI
interest by mourning little additona
risk, If no loss should come, but We
believe there is to-day ''long felt
want in Vermont for a savings institu-
ton which will loan it's funds at home.
1t is needed that Vermont may not
become impoverished. 1t is needed for
the building up and fostering home in
situations. Vermont towns will not
boom without money any more than
towns beyond the Mississippi and in
Alabama. 1t is needed for the greater
safety of the savings of widows and or
phans as well as of all those who look
rather to the absolute security of the
principal than to high rates of interest.
With no disparagement to our neighbors
who prefer to occupy western fields we
offer to the depositing public the La
noble County Savings Bank and Trust
Co. as an institution organized to meet
the demand for strictly home Investment
Savings Bank, That such demand ex-
lists, and that the people are ready to be-
stow their confidence and encourage
ment upon such an insti utiOn, is evil
denced by the fact that the aggregate of
the small deposits alone i'll this bank
not counting any in excess of $1,000
were at the end of the first six months
of its business, $57, 1860, record
without parallel, we believe, in the
history of Vermont Savings Banks.
4th Under no circumstances does
this Bank take over 6per cent ltwould
not. knowingly, make an Investment
which would pay over 6 per cent. The
safest class of loans and securities will
command money at 6 per cent. The
Bank pays the State tax of siX-tenths
of per cent. on deposits in lieu of all
taxes to the depositors. 1t must then be
evident that per cent. per annum is all
that the Bank can SAFELY PAY. This
rate it will pay. 1t is guaranteed and
rests on no contingency. Interest will
be compounded semi-annually if not
withdrawn.

Wednesday before any definite results
will be known.
The Democratic gangs are going to put
in a scattering appearance today. The
primaries are all in full swing. 1t is a
big fight with all the candidates in it,
through their active friends. Outside OF
the gubernatorial fight, the only state
candidate who is pushing his cause
at all is genial Fred. Harkness of Los
Angeles. Fred. knows every man Of
prominence in the state, and his quiet
suave way is getting him there at a
rapid pace. John ?. Dunn has of course
no end of friends, but the fact that his
candidacy is a third-term affair this
time, is greatly in favor of the Los An
geles man. Hardness has made great
many captures in the delegations, and is
making new conquests daily. His
friends claim with all confidence, that
he has practical walk-over of it.

ONE LUNG GONE.
A Case not of Suicide, but Heart Fail
ure,

ure.
Coroner Weldon held an inquest yes
terday upon the body of James w. King,
native of Indiana, 5S years of age, who
was found dead in his room at the
Southern hotel yesterday morning.
From the testimony taken before the
jury of inquisition, it was learned that
King had occupied room at the South
ern hotel on San Fernando street for the
past six months. During that time he
had been in an almost helpless con-
dition from paralysis and consumption,
but in spite of his feeble health, he at
times sought to drown his cares in liq-
uor, and had the reputation of being a
hard drinker. For the past week he
had been on prolonged debauch, and
on Tuesday announced to several people
at the hotel, his convictions that he
would not be alive in forty-eight hours.
1t was thought that he had contem-
plated suicide, and as he failed to re-
spond to the summons of the porter at
S o'clock yesterday morning, an en-
trance was effected to his room. He
was found lying across the bed, as if in
the act of rising, but he had evidently
been dead some hours.
Owing to the belief which prevailed
that he had committed suicide, a post
mortem examination upon the body was
made by DR.. 7. J. McCarty at the re-
quest of the coroner. 1t was then found
that Kings death was caused by heart
failure due to consumption. His left
lung was entirley gone and his right
lung partially SO, from the ravages OF
the dread disease.
