February %, 1911, and was so years old
Her father came from HOpkintOn
when boy. Her mother was member

she had danced in Bennington, as she
used to relate. Mrs. Haswell was the
youngest of ~ children, and was edu-
Gated in Burlington, in English and
French, was fine scholar and for long
time taught a select school, and num-

now best citizens of Burlington. She also
taught in Bennington until her marriage
with Mr.. VIM. Haswell. She was his
second wife, and since his death has Oc-
cupied alone, the old Haswell home

late Henry b. Stacey ESQ, so long the

Ravel, Russia, during the administration
of President Lincoln, and died there while

she should remain. She was ill
about a week and Mr.. Brown and his
family did everything that was
possible, in conjunction with Miss
Stacey, her niece, for her com

valley. God will bless them for their
labor of love, according to his promise.

An Enjoyable opera.

The "Chimes of Normandy was re
peated here last Thursday evening as
stated last week. The benefit was fol
the Citizens Cornet Band, which netted
about iifty dollars. A large house
greeted the company, composed of loca
vOcalists and musicians assisted by tai
ent from Troy, COhOes and North
Adams. At the latter place the opera
was repeated the following friday
evening From the Transcript we take
the pleasant mention of our people and
their assistants as follows:
Seldom is it the good fortune of a
North Adams audience to witness SO
merltorlous an amateur performance as
was given at Wilson Opera House last
Friday evening by the Bennington Phil
harmOniCS, who presented the charming
opera, Chimes of Normandy" in a
manner that surprised and delighted the
audience and easily ranked with the
work of many professional troupes.
There had been a large sale of seats, and
the size and character of the audience
was high compliment to the company,
which, however, from the start demon
strated that the compliment was richly
merited and the patronage wisely be-
slowed. Miss Jessie May Miller of
West Troy as ''Serpoletten and Miss
Mary l.. Hutchins as 'Germaine" were
admirably adapted to those parts and
captivated the audience by their sweet
singing and refined acting Thomas
lmpett of Troy, the celebrated tenor,
was perfectly at home in the character
of "Grenicheux, and his rich voice and
easy and graceful manner made him a
prime favOrite throughout the evening.

than novice on the operate stage. The
miser "Gaspard," was impersonated by
Peter j. Whitney of this town with an
effect that it would be difficult for any
professional to surpass. The scene that
followed his discovery while counting
his hidden gold was intensely realistic,
and his subsequent loss of reason and
recovery was carried out in a way that
brought storm of applause and COM

TUNES were pretty and all the parts, in
GLIDING those of the chorus, were so veil
sustained that the three hours occupied
in the rendition of the opera slipped
away all too quickly. The audience was
generous in its expressions of approba-
ton, and Miss Hutchins was hOnorel
with large bouquet thrown to her upon
the stage. The entertainment was a
complete success artistically and finan-
cially and will be remembered as one of
tue pleasantest attractions ever present

of amateurs. Play-goers may deem
themselves fortunate who never meet
with poorer work at the hands of the
profession,

Over five hundred representatives OF
Associations in almost every State and
Territory in the United States and in the
Canadian provinces gathered at the
handsome new Calvary Baptist church
at Kansas City to attend the twenty
ninth International Convention of
Young Mems Christian Associations.
One of the most important sessions of
the convention was that taken up by the
report of the International Committee,
who were created at the Albany con-
vention in 1866, and who has since SUI
pervised the work of extension and
growth of the association throughout
our country and Canada. Our local
association would not be in existence to-
day were it not for the work of this COM
mittee.
The following table indicates the
change in the twenty-five years which
have elapsed since the Albany conven-

Mrs. Chnn. L. Scnrs.

A lovely life has gone out in the death
of Mrs Sears, and that Death loves a
shining mark, is again verified, for she
was amiable, bright, witty, poet
ical, affectionate, and, above all, a
Christian. Refined in the furnace of
affliction, she was at last made perfect
through suffering, for many months
of pain and WEAKNESS have been hers,
clinging to life for the sake of her hus-
band and children, yet she patiently sub
mitted to the will of her heavenly
father and went to her grave in perfect
peace. She was the daughter of Gen.
Ammen, and granddaughter of the late
Mrs. VIM. Pierce. She was 46 years of
age. She leaves three children, having
lost beautiful daughter and son, while
living in Bennington village. The sym
patty of all his acquaintance goes out
to the stricken husband, and the prayer
of all is, that The blessed Comforter may
come to him and assist him to bear the
heavy burden of grief that has come
upon him and the dear children left be-
hind. The funeral was attended We'd
nesday, p. M, and the large number
present attested the love and esteem
felt for Mrs. Sears in the community.
Rev. Mr.. Severance officiated.

Information comes from Philadelphia,

Information comes from Philadelphia,
says the New York Press, of the organi-
cation of the Welsh American Tin Plate
Company, with capital of 81 ,O00, 900, for
the purpose of carrying on the manufac-
ture of tin plate in Eastern Pennsylvania.
The mills to be built are to have a capac-
ity of 1900 boxes of tin plates week,
which is expected to be increased to
10000. OF course the "tin plate liars"
of the free trade press will ignore this
piece of news, just as they did the meet
ing in New York city few days ago of
representatives of nearly a dozen tin
plate establishments. But we are going
to make our own tin plate in this couu-
try just the same.
