church, but her heart and sympathy has
been with the church and people she
loved, and when the public services with
Christians was denied, in the quiet of her
home with her husband and children, she
still found delight in Christian fellow
ship, prayer and praise She was low
ing and devoted wife and mother. She
leaves husband, three daughters and
two sons to mourn their loss also a
father, mother and three brothers, who
are sustained in their great bereavement
by the thought OF her great gain; ior she
was sustained and comforted by her
Saviors presence until the shadow OF
death gave place TO eternal day. She
was loved by all who knew her, and
those of us who enjoyed her friendship to
which she was so faithful, and showed
that friendly council which came so ten
derby from the depths of her heart, feel
that in her being taken away a place is
left vacant whichcan be filled by nothing
but the sweet memory we have of her
and her Saviors presence.

A CHOICE CONCERT.

The concert on Friday evening by the
Boston Rivals was the choicest of the
season and thoroughly enjoyed by an
appreciative audience. The artists were,
Miss Sigrid Lunde, soprano; Miss Vora
Burpee, reader; Miss Jessie M. Downer,
pianist; Mr.. Felix Winternitz. violinist,
and Mr.. James H. Ricketson, tenor. Mr..
Winterntz is an accomplished violinist,
and was enthusiastically received. Mr..
Ricketson's sweet and pure tenor voice
was at its best at this concert, and
encores were frequent and cheerully
responded to. The work of the accom-
panist was no secondary part, and her
work was most graceful and artistic.
Miss Burpee, who is so we'll known in
this town, received quite an ovation
when she first appeared, and gave her
selections in highly pleasing manner.
The child's piece, given as an encore, was
the most finished piece of it's kind ever
given in st. ,Johnsbury. Miss Lunde is
fine soprano singer, but appeared here
at great disadvantage as she was
quite sick and had hardly strength
enough to execute her part. Her solos
showed that she had good voice and
one that showed power.

AFTER THE FIRE.

Much excitement was caused SUNDAY
by the story that a commercial Traveller
was burned in the fire. 1t spread fast,
and by Monday nearly every one had
heard it. Upon investigation it was
found that there was no truth in the
report.
In our account of the fire last week it
was stated that T. c. Spencer was in the
Avenue House when the fire started. This
was a mistake, as Mr.. Spencer did not
enter the house until after he heard the
building was on fire.
There has been much speculation as to
the sudden spreading of the fire alter it
was first discovered. but the most nat
ural explanation is that after the flames
broke out there was an explosion of the
coal gas. AS the flames were first dis
covered in the room over the big boilers,
this seems very plausible theory for the
rapid spreading OF the flames.
While the fire was in progress Landlord
Norton of the Union House distributed
coffee to the firemen, and also invited
Landlord Doyle and family to be his
guests. Many other people in that vicin-
ity took the homeless people into there
own homes, so that no one was left with
out shelterlng roof.
Workmen have been busily engaged the
past week repairing the Brooks block,
and it will soon be ready for occupancy.
Bragg & Morris are doing the work, and
the job will be well done.
E. c. Brooks, the tailor, estimates his
loss above the insurance at about $1,000.
X. p. Kidder & Son lost about $500 from
the fire. The adjusters paid Spaulding
Brothers $2500 insurance, and that firms
loss by the fire will be about $500. They
are now in Geo. Carey's store.

CLEVER DETECTIVE WORK.

Sheriff Sulloway has Just completed
some clever work, which has occupied
more or less of his time for the last six
months, and been the occasion Of official
correspondence between the United States
and Canada.
Last August Henry Lanctot and George
Wells stole about $500 worth OF clothing
from the store OF S. Stern at LyndonviIle
They took their property to Lowell
where they disposed of some of it and
later sold the rest in Manchester. Wells
was arrested in Manchester soon after
and he disclosed on Lanctot. Wells was
brought to our county jail and Mr.. Sui
loway started out on Lanctot's trail
He could not find him in Lowell, but
finally arrested him in Sherbrooke. In
the meantime Lanctot had fallen heir to
some money and he resolved to make a
fight for liberty. He carried his case
from the Sherbrooke court to the Queen S
iull bench at Montreal, who dismissed
the wit OF habeas corpus and held that
the extraditon papers were good Sher-
III SulIoway received last week the ex-
tradition papers from President Cleve-
land and took them to Ottawa to get
them examined by the Canadian govern
ment. Mr.. Sulloway went to Sherbrooke
today to get Lanctot and will have him
tried at the June term of court He is a
desperate criminal and tried every means
to escape the law. This is the first case
OF extradition that has been tried from
st. Francis district for 80 years.

THE CITY OF ST. JOHNSBURY.

That's what the Board of Trade talked
about last Monday night and the mem
bers wereso interested in the matter that
they voted to have the same subject at
the annual meeting the first Monday in
March, Short speeches on the subject
were made by the clergymen, profession
al and business men, and only one speaker
demurred against the plan of making
st. Johnsbury a city when the legislature
met next fall. The speakers favored
plan to have the whole town incorpora-
ted as city and thus do away with two
sets of officers. There is plenty OF time
to agitate the matter and the question
is one that will be thoroughly discussed
within the next six months.
