Three deaths occurred in town last
Saturday during the hour between
II 80 and ~ 80, something unusual
in this small town. The first to pass
away was Mr.. Josiah Goddard, who
was followed in a few minutes by
Rev. o. r. Fuller the next being
VIM. ii. Goddard of the North vii
lage,
Mr.. Josiah Goddard was born in
Windham but has been resident of
this town for many years, and was a
prosperous and esteemed citizen. He
was member of the M. f. church
and large yearly contributor to-
wards its support. He leaves wife
and two daughters, Mrs. Fred c..
Rand of Saxtons River and Mrs.
John Ramsdell of this town. Funer-
al services were held at the Nj. +.
church, Rev. W. A. Bryant ofiiciat-
ing, on Tuesday, and the interment
made at Thompsonburg.
The death of Mr.. Fuller came rath-
er unexpected, although it had been
apparent for several weeks that he
could not survive long, the nature OF
his disease being such as to jeopar-
die the action of the heart. Mr..
Fuller came to this place and entered
upon the pastorate of the Baptist
church about eight years ago. He
was universally regarded as an hon.
est, upright man. He had no enc
mics, put was regarded as "good
man" in the best and fullest sense OF
that term. He leaves wife and 8
son about ten years old besides 8
married Daughter by former wife
who resides in Rhode Island.
Funeral services were held at the
church on Monday, the following
ministers being present: Var
Schaick of Windham, Robbins o.
Chester, Waltze of Manchester, Cen
tire, Boynton of Weston, and tn,
three local ministers, Bryant, Mack,
and Curtis. The services were rath
er of an informal nature. The Rev
Mr.. Robbins, who took the lead, in
troduced the several ministers pres
ent who each had word of persona
knowledge of and a eulogy for tn
deceased. These were of deepl
sympathetic nature, more especial
ly the remarks made by Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Mackie of the M. E
church, who for the past few year
had lived next door neighbors to tn
deceased and had been brought il
close daily contact with him.
The body, accompanied by Mrs
Fuller and. her mother, Mrs. Hills
and son Lucian, was taken to Plais
tow, N. H., where the interment wi
f be made.

Your Peru correspondent advises
the school districts to hold their an
nual meetings the same as before. If
/ understand the present school law
Alright, we have no districts. Such
meetings if called and district officers
elected would be null and void with
no legal authority. The towns have
already elected the required officers
to manage the schools. The school
law was well enough as it was, then
it give the towns the privilege of
adopting the town system if they
wanted, it seems but few towns want
ed the town system, those towns that
did adopt it wanted to get out of it in
many instances. The great cry with
the advocates of the town system,
ssThe taxes were so high in the back
districts" In our town and l think
it the same in other towns, the real
estate in the back districts does not
stand on the Grand List more than
one half as high as the real estate on
the main roads or near business GEN.

duct of the brothers. The maps of
Maui and Oahu are made on a
scale (horizontaI of 5000 feet to
one inch, and that of Hawaii 5000
(horizontal) and 10000 feet (ver-
tical) to one Inch. The map of
Hawaii show the mountains, val
legs, volcanoes, forests, sugar plan
tations, every seaport and anchor
age, churches, etc. That Of Oahu
includes the Eva railway line and
the proposed 1872 miles of railway
around this island
Mr.. Allen Hutchinson, the
sculptor, admired the maps and
declared them to be fine works.
The brothers commenced to work
at these maps last Easter during
their leisure hours, which are not
many. The brothers claim that
the maps could not be done here
for 5000 each, as there is lots of
work connected with them. 1t was
the intention of the brothers to
take the maps for exhibition at
the worlds fair, but they are not
dry enough now to allow trans
portation.

GUNS IN AMERICA.
>Death- Dealing Product of Uncle
Sans World Beating
FOUndYT

WASHINGTON, D. c., June IT,
Five of the biggest cannon ever
made in America for service are
now nearing completion at the
United States Naval Gun Foundry
at Washington. They are of the
latest conception and pattern.
They are all of 13-inch calibre,
and each weighs 65 tons, meas
ures 40 feet in length and is capa-
BILE of throwing a terrific armor-
piercing projectile of 100 pounds
weight Is miles.
These death-dealing monsters
are of a lot of II designed to arm
the three new battleships Indiana,
Oregon and Massachusetts,, the
latter launched in Philadelphia
last Saturday. Four are to be
placed on each ship, in pairs, for
ward and aft. and the whole will
cost, when mounted in their tur-
rets, 81, 200, 900, or 100000 apiece.
Every discharge from onein action
will cost $7OO-$50O for the nickel
steel projectile and 5000 for the
powder.
The processes of building these
monsters are comparatively SIM
pie, and yet embody the results of
untold study and experiment and
require a high order of mechanical
and mathematical skill. The two
distinct stages are the production
of the forgings and their CONVEX
sion into completed guns.
The forgings are considered raw
materials by the mechanics, but to
produce them is a difficult art.
All are bought by the government
either from the Bethlehem (Pa.)
Iron Company or from the Midvale
Company, at Nicetown, Philadel-
phia. Both establishments in
order to produce the forgings have
had to procure an enormous plant,
equipped with machinery of gil
gantic power.

A Oueer Find.

The sea has yielded up its dead
in a remarkable manner ut ka-
werua, near Hokianga. Early in
August, 1883, Mr.. George Wyatt,
storekeeper, with three Maoris, went
out Mt sea near kawerua, when their
boat upset. One of the natives, TIE
Marenga, sank ut once. Mr.. Wyatt
clung to the boat fer some time,
but was washed off and also sank.
The two natives chung to the boat,
and after drifting about for some
hours, were washed ashore. The
body of Te Marenga was after
wards found, but Mr.. Wyatt's was
never seen again. Within the last
few days, however close To the
spot where the accident occurred,
the tide washed up complete
skeleton of n man. From the peeu-
liarity in the shape of the skull,
and the loss of certain tooth--the
only means Of dentitication--it
was concluded that the remains
were those OF Mr.. Wyatt, An in
quest was held before Ny Webster

corded their belief that the skele-
ton was that of Mr.. Wyatt. though
