The Vermont Conference.

The Vermont Conference which has
been in session at Mortified the past
week was well attended throughout.
Besides being well-attended by peO-
pie from various parts of the state a
goOdly number of representative
Methodists from abroad were pres
emit The sessions throughout were
of the usual character, and elected
much interest. The reports showed
that the work of the past year had
been productive of good results.
Bishop MallaIieu presided through
out the sessions in a very excellent
and satisfactory manner. The gath
ering has been a most pleasant one
and the brethren go back to their
work greatly strengthened ana en-
couraged. The committee TO can
vass votes of lay members as to ellg-
Utility of ladies as lay delegates to
conferences, reported whole number
of votes taken 1926, of which l.l42
were for and 5S4 against, giving a
majority of 55S for the ladies. The
vote of ministers on admitting women
as lay delegates to conferences was
declared, showing whole number OF
votes cast 90, of which 46 were fol-
and At against. The appointments
were announced Monday morning
and are, we believe, satisfactory to
all. The next conference will be held
at Montpelier. Following are the
appointments for this vicinity:

Mrs. Hannah Parker. late of Dakota but

Saturday morning found the ground white
with snow which soon disappeared under the
influence of the sun.
| Rev. |. p. Booth of Mortified will speak in
Unity church next Sunday. 1t is hoped that
his services may be secured for the coming
| year.
| The sudden disappearance of Ira French
| gives his friends much alarm. His health has
been poor for some years and fear was enter
tanned that something serious had befalen
him. He was at work for an uncle in Water
bury and some days since left there under the
pretence of going to see doctor and has not
been heard from since, as reports have 1t.
Mrs. Lucia Harris, aged rs years, widow of
the late Joel Harris, died on Sunday morning

On Tuesday last during the temporary

| very singular case of poisining recently
occurred in the family of Mr.. George Wade
At the time the family consisted of Mr.. and

living there They had also few guests
Mrs. Elmer Wade and daughter of Morris
vile and Mrs. Ed. Clough. They had tea,
including a cream-cake, favored with five
drops of vanilla, about O'Clock. After re
firing for the night first one then another
became sick with vomiting and severe gripping
of the stomach, until six of the family were
PROSTATE and entirely helpless. Mr. Wade
being the only one remaining able to wait on
the sick. About midnight matters appear
ing to grow worse instead of better he be-
came greatly alarmed and started for help
and doctor. On their arrival relief was soon
had and an examination made as to the
cause of all this trouble, which proved to be
the cake-Mr. Wade being the only one at
the table, who did not partake it. The
outcome proved to be more laughable than
serious, though they do not care for re-
newa1 of the eE perience of that night.

at the theatre, and irs;- ,lasa comic opera

Ia the spring OF 1881, just before be be-
