SAW PAT CULLEN.
Officer OF Waialeale Tells OF Man
Who Went to Kauai.

Who Went to Kauai.
One of the officers of the Waialeale,
in speaking of the escape of Pat Gull
len from Oahu Jail, told the following
story:
Eyes, L believe we did have Pat
Cullen on the Waialeale when that
steamer left for Kauai last week. L
remember when we got quite a dis
lance away from port 1 went past one
of the state-rooms, and to my surprise
found lying on the lower berth a man
who had close beside him a large re-
volver. He was sound asleep, and as
he appeared to be intoxicated, this
from having seen him come aboard
in such state, 1 said nothing. I had
no suspicious whatever and believed
the man to be a drunken sailor.
when we arrived in Kilauea, he left
us and the next day police officer
came to inquire after man of the ex-
act description of the one whom 1 had
seen leave the steamer. OF course, he
was many miles away by that time
and nothing could be done"

Much of the solid silver
ware used in Honolulu is
bought in San Francisco by
people visiting there be-
cuse it is cheaper.
Twenty-Five per cent duty
is a great deal too much to
pay and it tempts people to
make purchases while they
are where they may buy it
cheaper. There is nothing
criminal in the transaction,
just a bit of practical econ
omy. There would have
been no necessity for these
buyers to 60 abroad, if deal
ers were willing to divide
with their customers. The
profit is large enough on
solid ware to cut off the
twenty-five per cent. and
sell it at a margin satisfactory
to every one. People do not
buy when they are abroad
because they can get better
goods, but because they can
get it cheaper.
The selections made by us
are from three of the largest
factories in the States. We
buy for cash and get the ar
ticles cheap and will sell
them at twenty five per cent.
or exactly the same as is
charged in San Francisco.
We have child's sets at 1918
and full tea sets for a great
deal more; the quality has
never been surpassed in this
country and the prices have
never been equalled.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

Some Reading that VIII Prove Interest
ing to Young Mothers. How to
Guard Against the Disease.
Croupis a terror to young mothers and
to post them concerning the case, first
symptoms and treatment is the object
of this item. The origin of Group is a
common cold. Children who are sub
ject to it take cold very easily and
Group is almost sure to follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness: this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized and
will never be forgotten by one who has
heard it, The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will soon disap-
pear Even after the croupy cough has
developed it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this re-
medy for it contains nothing injurious.

A Deserted Vermont Village.

Something like Il mile beyond Sa-
dawga, VT, stands what was once
the important village of "the middle
of the town of Whitingham," says
the Springfield Republican. Half a
century ago it boosted an academy,
church, a tavern and some market
facilities for the farmers who came
there from miles around to "dew
their tratin'."
In the belfry of its educational in
stitution hung the only bell known
for many miles and each evening the
year around at 9 o'clock its solemn
note of warning could be heard
through the adjoining towns pro-
claiming that, in accordance with
established usage, the hour of "bed-
time" had arrived.
The village was on about the high
est land of the region roundabout; il
was bleak and cold during the long,
inclement winters. Gradually its
prestige was lost. To-day it stands
an embodiment of Goldsmith's "De.
serted Village" or any other scene of
actual desertion, not having, per-
haps, its full parallel in all the New
England states.
The old academy still stands,
brown and weather-beaten, its sur
roundings overgrown with weeds
and grass, its little belfry still point
ing upwards, but silently-so silent.
ly that the heart turns to the neigh
boring graveyard almost with feel
ing Of consolation.
Abandoned buildings line the
grass-grown street; IN all the COM
pass of the village, on the occasion
of recent visit, but single house
was occupied, and that might have
been passed and repassed many
times without catching glimpse OF
the people who lived there.

Daath of Anna H, VAUGHAN,

Anna Hewitt Vaughan died at the
home of her father, Charles II.
Vaughan, in Pomfret, Thursday
morning at 6 o'clock after short
illness, terminating in inflammation
of the brain. Her illness, which be-
gan about two weeks ago, was not
considered alarming until Wednes-
day and her death was a great ahock
to her family and friends, by whom
she was greatly beloved.
She leaves many friends in Wood
stock, where she attended the high
school for four years, graduating
eight years ago.
She was born in Pomfret June 6,
1870, where she has always lived,
and since the death of her mother,
nine years ago, has been her fathers
constant companion and helper, her
duties at home only being interrupt
ed by school work, teaching two
terms IN Pomfret, the last one being
the spring term of this year. She
was president of the Christian En-
deavor society of Pomtret. Her
time and strength was given to every
good work in the community and
her active services were never called
for in vain. In the home and by
every one, she will be sorely missed.
A sister, now teaching in Bridge
water, Mass, survives her.
The funeral services will be held
this Saturday afternoon at the
church at o'clock.
