RESOLUTIONS

On the Decease of Rev Gilbert D.
 Townsend.
 The following resolutions commemor- ative of the decease of Rev Gilbert D. Townsend were adopted by The Housa- tonic Valley Methodist Ministers Asso- citation at its annual meeting held in the Methodist Episcopal church at Canaan, Conn.,, May IA, 1895.
 We as an association having learned of the death of our beloved brother, Gilbert D. Townsend. desire to place on record our appreciation of his char acter. .-.
 We found in him christian friend who, while age and physical infrmity advanced, retained his youthful buoy ancy of spirits. He had mastered the art of growing old gracefully. We shall miss his cheerful presence with us in our meetings, but rejoice that he has finished his course with joy, and look forward with fond anticipation to the time when we shall meet our brother again where none ever say ] am sick.
 To his surviving relatives we tender our sincere sympathy in their bereave. ment.

See holzer, of Canaan; vice-president, Rev F. D. Abrams, of Lakeville; secretary and treasurer, Rev, J. B. Cross, of Stockbridge. The question of month ly or bi.monthly meetings was discussed and was decided in favor of monthly meetings. On motion the chair appoint ed MT H. O. Warner, of Great Barring ton, Rev J. W. Bohlman, of Falls Will lsge, and Rev J. B. Cross a committee on resolutions on the death of Rev Gil bert D. Townsend. (The resolutions sub- mitted by the committee, and adopted by the association. are published else- where in this issue of the NEws) At the conclusion of the business session prayer was offered by the Rev J. W. Bohlman, followed by scripture read ing. Rev G. H. Smith preached a grand sermon from Peter I 3-5. At noon dinner was served in the church parlors. and between 5 and 6 o'clock supper was served.

It covered 8 period of over 100 years and was replete with names, dates and events belonging to the history of Methodism in this locali- ty. MT Warner is genealogist and historian and undoubtedly has more records and reliable information on this subject than any one else. Said essay l will be secured by the Historical Soci- ety.

Deafness Cau,t he Curea

oy local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con. stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infiamed you have rumbling sound or Inn perfect hearing, and when 1t Is entirely closed, Deafness Is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing vii be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ter are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed condition of the mucuous sur. faces.
 We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that wt cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure Send for circulars, free.

The Lightning's Work.

A severe thunder storm visited this section Wednesday evening of last week. The copious rain was most well come, but the lightning was too near for comfort. The large elm tree in front of Humphreys drug store was struck. The thunder bolt exploded in the top of the tree with deafening re- port, as loud as six-pounder cannon. The electric fluid ran down the tree, making many seams in trunk and branches, made hole in the ground at the foot of the tree and knocked the cover of the hydrant to g distance of several feet. The ground around the tree was covered with bark and with the earth and gravel scattered by the light ming. Frank Stevens. Louis Holt and Frank Prince, who were standing under the store porch within 20 feet of the tree, were all affected by the electricity with which the air was charged. Louis Holt was nearly stunned and had a stiff neck for a day or two afterward and Frank Stevens felt the sensation of a violent blow on the shoulder. The air seemed filled with bluish light and there was sulphurous order percepti- ble. Mrs William Sardam was at s. 0. Beckley's during the shower, and just before the lightning struck the tree and the hydrant she wanted drink of water. She opened the faucet in the kitchen and while holding goblet un- der it and waiting for the water to run cool the thunderbolt fell. After strik- ing the hydrant of course the electricity followed the water pipes around the vil- lage. Mrs Sardam received a severe shock which temporarily paralyzed her right arm and almost blistered DOT tion of her side. She has not yet fully recovered from the shock. Mrs 0. H. Briggs has rooms at Dr Camps, and was in the bath room when the thunderbolt fell. She was severely shocked but sustained no serious injury yet we presume she does not enjoy that kind of an electric bath.
 Several people in other parts of the village were affected by the electricity which followed the water pipes.
 John Curtiss' barn near Clayton, Mass, was struck the same night and set on fire, but the flames were luckily extinguished without much damage.
