Miss Emma j. Hudson has been defeat
ed in her long legal fight to prove that she
is the widow of James W. Page, the horse
man, and to establish her claim to her
share in his $50, 900 estate. The case has
been before Surrogate Abbott of Brooklyn
many months, and Thursday decision
hostile to her was handed down. The case
has excited much attention and interest in
Vermont, as has previously been noted by
The Phoenix, and several hearings have
been held at Bennington and Manchester.
Miss Hudson claims that in September,
1886, she met Page in Rutland and at mid
night started off with him on train, and
after arriving at a small village they drove
about mile, after which justice of the
peace married them. There were no wit
nesses to the ceremony. Page took the
certificate, which she never saw again, and
they left the place when the ceremony was
performed and returned to Rutland, from
whence she took an early morning train.
The testimony introduced went TO show
that what ceremony was performed, was
at the Munson House in Manchester, al
though none of the witnesses could swear
positively to that effect. Miss Hudson
failed entirely to trace or locate the village
justice who performed the ceremony, and
the proof offered was regarded as entirely
unsatisfactory by Surrogate Abbott. 1t is
said that an appeal will be taken.

who Are Behind Him.


In his speech at Chicago last Saturday
night, Candidate Bryan said, among other
things:
when see this assemblage tonight and when
remember what the newspapers 10 this city say
am reminded Of what one OF our friends said 70
me, Nobody is on our sioe except the people.
am proud to have In this campaign the support
OF those who are proud to call Themselves the
common people. II was behind the great trusts
and corporations combinations know would
no sooner take my seat than they would demand
| should use my power to rob the people. But
having rather the support OF the great toiling
masses know when they give me their ballot,
they will unite In saying, do your duty and we
have our reward
This is demagogy pure and unadulterat-
ed. Candidate Bryan knows that behind
him is the most gigantic combination of
capital ever gotten together in the history
of this republic. The silver mine owners,
who would reap enormous wealth by the
free and unlimited coinage of silver, repre-
sent an aggregate capital of S547 200, 900,
and it is massed behind the candidacy of
William j. Bryan like a solid wall of sill
yer. He knows il he shall be elected, he
would no sooner take his seat than they
would demand he should use his power to
rob the people and enrich themselves. The
moment the power is given the silver mine
owner, in this and every other country, to
have fifty-two or three cents worth of sill
yer good for 100 cents in the payment of
debts and obligations of every kind, that
moment the value Of every dollar now on
deposit in savings banks, trust companies,
represented by life insurance policies, in
vested in modest homes, coming to the
veteran pensioners of the Union army,
every dollar of the savings of the common
people, is clipped forty-seven or eight cents
which goes directly into the pockets of the
owners of this enormous capital of Sj47,-

ing, "Another bolter:" Secretary of

Mrs. James Phelps died after a lingering
illness, last Sunday morning at 1890. For
a long time she has been confined to her
bed by cancer of the most painful char
acter. Mrs. Phelps was native of Wal
pole, n. H., having been born there in
1925. She was married to James Phelps
in 1S4S. Mr.. Phelps died in 1878. Mrs.
Phelps was widely known and loved by all
who knew her. She was at the time of
her death one of the oldest members of the
Congregational church in this place. For
SO years she had been actively interested
in all its work, and hers was ever a labor
of love. The funeral occurred at 2 o'clock

1t does not make the torrid weather of
the past fortnight seem less torrid to say
that the fierce heat has extended over a
very wide territory both here and in Eu-
rope, but such is the fact. In this couD-
try north, south, east and west have all
been suffering Over the water England
is complaining of one of the hottest sea-
sons on record; with not so high tenn
perature as ours, but with a quality of at
mosphere that makes IL equally oppressive.
France and Germany are sweltering, and
the plains of Hungary are parched. There
are few spots in the whole north temperate
zone which are not afflicted with intern
perate heat. Nor has such been the case
for only a week or so. Nearly all Of July
was uncommonly hot, humid and electric.
1t is singular fact that last summer in
the southern hemisphere, which was our
winter, was one of unprecedented heat.
The average temperature in Australia last
January was much higher than here in
July. In all that month it never fell be-
low 100 degrees in the shade, not even at
night. From January | TO January 10 il
ranged from 107 degrees to 100 degrees.
At Adelaide, In latitude corresponding
with that of Cape Hatteras, on January %
the mercury rose TO the appalling height Of
172 degrees in the sun. This far exceeds
anything which we have suffered here. 1t
certainly is a fact worthy of note that so
hot a summer in the southern temperate
zone should be followed by one so hot in
the northern, and that Australia should
endure in January what the United States
endures in July and August.

he uses in drawing up contracts for har-
