HENRY RUGGLEs, prominent business
man of Poultney died suddenly last Satur-
day night. He was man OF great execu-
tive ability and unflinching integrity, and
he accumulated large estate from his own
industry. Mr.. Ruggles was a prominent
Mason. He was the oldest living Knight
Templar of Mount Calvary commandery
He was director OF the Poultney First Ma
tional bank. In town affairs, while not
seeking office, he always used his influence
for the best interest of the town. In poll
tics he was republican and in national
affairs he was always active, especially dur
ing the rebellion, when he spent his time
and money in the interests Of the Union.
THE crockery firms of Van Doom & Nor
ris Of Brattleboro and Van Doom & Tilson
OF Rutland. the largest in the state, are in
volved in financial trouble. The jewelry
firm of Jordon & Van Doom of Brattleboro
is mixed up in the failure. While the COM
bined liabilities of the three firms with
which Mr.. Van Doom is connected are esti-
mated at $40, 900 and the assets are nearly
as large, Mr.. Van Doorn's personal obliga-
tions are said to be about S45, GOO, with small

feet that private news from Athens which
has escaped censorship shows the position
OF royalty there to be more perilous than
ever. The members OF the royal family
rarely leave the palace and their portraits

When the queen and princess visit the hos

The palace is watched by revolutionary
agents, lest their majesties should attempt

A Chance OF a Lifetime.

Labor is a necessity and skilled labor is
always in demand.
The VERMONT WATCHMAN offers the
chance OF lifetime to any young man or
young woman, who is anxious to be well
equipped in the battle of life. The cond-
tions are very simple. Arrangements have
been made by THE WAToHMAN to give a
thorough business education to the person
who secures the largest number OF sub
scribers to The WATCHMAN before Septem-
Der /, 1897
A life membership certificate in Spencer's
Business College, Kingston, N. Y, will be
given to the successful canvasser, which
will entitle him, or her, to instruction In all
branches OF Commercial, Stenographic
and Telegraphic course.
The Combined Life Scholarship, includ-
ing the above three courses, costs 500.
This amount of tuition is given to the sue
cessful contestant, surely an offer worth
contending for.
Each unsuccessful competitor will be al
lowed to retain ten per cent Of the money
he has received for subscriptions, and thus
earnest effort will not be unrewarded.
Persons desiring to compete must notify
THE WAToHMAN before June 10.

The Mallory line steamer, Leona,"
which left New York last Saturday for Gal
weston, put back to port Sunday morning
with sixteen dead passengers. The dead
were in the Storage and succombedIin ter
rible struggle during a fire which occurred
early Sunday morning. Those who are
dead were penned up below decks and al
though frantic efforts were made by the
officers of the vessel to save them the fire
had such terrific Roadway before the danger
was discovered that all escape was cut off.
The steamer carried among her cargo many
bales OF cotton. 1t is not certain how the
fire originated but it burst forth with such a
fury that 1t was impossible to reach the
storage. Even the steerage passengers ap-
parently were unmindful OF the danger or
else the smoke and flames had not reached
them. The saloon passengers were first in
such q manner to occasion little alarm
When it became apparent that the fire had
cut off the steerage passengers, the captain
and his men poured great quantities of
water down the ventilator and eight of the
Storage passengers finally succeeded in
making their escape.
