PERKINSvILLE.

The funeral of Mrs. Albert Billings
on Thursday last was attended by a
large gathering of relatives and friends
which nearly filled the Baptist church.
Rev. HI. M. Hopkinson officiated, as
sisted by Rev. w. HI. Rugg. The choir
of which Mr.. Billings is chorister sang
"When the Mists Have Rolled Away"
and eve are Going Down the Valley"
and Miss Hattie McGregor, evangelist,
sang "Sometime Well Understand. /"
-Four brothers, cousins of Mrs. Billings,
Herbert, Marshall, Erwin and Amasa
Circuit, acted as bearers. The floral
offerings were numerous, including over
80 pieces.
The store of Melvin G. Robinson was
broken into on Friday night. The
burglars entered by a cellar window
and departed by side door. They
took jewelry, revolvers, pants, shoes,
cigars, a hammock to carry their booty
in, and Fred's bicycle. The value of
the stolen property is estimated at
about $500. 1t would seem that there
were at leaat two persons concerned
and that they spent Saturday some
where on the north side of Hawks
mountain near Amsden's bridge, and
on Saturday night came out of their
hiding place, taking the bicycle up the
Cavendish road beyond "New City" to
the Felchville road, when one man
turned back and the other went on with
the bicycle to Greenbush, through the
west notch, West Windsor, to Windsor,
arriving in Windsor Sunday morning
before people were stirring, where all
traces were lost.

The Weather and Crops.

The New England weather bulletin
for the week says: GAN central and
southern Vermont seems to have es-
capped most of the showers of the week
and most of the rain of the previous
week, and more rain is needed. There
has been plenty of sunshine, and it has
been improved in rushing work in the
bayfield,; some have completed haying,
with good crop. Berries are very
scarce in the southern counties.
Apples are reported to be good crop in
some places, while in other orchards
not far away there is hardly an apple
to be seen. The extremely hot, dry
weather has dried the crops and ground
very rapidly, and in the western, cen
trail and southern districts, where the
showers Of the oath and Goth were light
or only moderate in amount, all crops
are suffering for water. Pastures are
probably feeling the need of rain now
as much as anything; considerable
stock have to be fed from the barn OF
depend on browse.
