The report for the week ending last
Monday is as follows:
The weather during the past week,
although not exactly ideal, was far more
favorable than for a long time past. Mon
day and Tuesday were dull, gloomy days,
but the remainder of the week witnessed
generally pleasant weather, interrupted
briefly by occasional showers in scattered
localities. The chief rainfall was on the
9th: this storm was quite general and
heavy over the entire district. In Boston
more than half an inch of rain fell in 20
minutes. The day temperatures were,
as a rule, warm, but not excessively so,
and the highs were too cool for success
full growth. Poor reports are at hand
from the cranberry district of Massachu-
sets, one correspondent stating that the
berries do not pay for raising. Picking
has already begun bur the crop is light
and Of inferior quality.
In Vermont the weather continues too
cool for corn; its progress is slow; much
of it will require ten days or two weeks
to place it beyond iniury by frost; the
ears are not filling large, and the crop is
bound to he below average in any event.
Ensilage corn is now being cut Oats
mostly harvested. Potatoes very small.
Apples few, but plenty of pears; a few
varieties of plums have endured the wet
and fruited we'll.

Middlebury is to have live music
store. The well known b .ley's music
rooms of Burlington will, on or about
Sept. 10, open branch house in the
Union block, in the store formerly Occu-
pied by E. X. Clay. c F. Rich has
leased this store and sub.let part of it to
Bailey's music rooms. The latter house
will carry sample line of pianos and
organs of standard makes, We believe
that such music store will not only be
a valuable adjunct to our village, but will
do large and successful business. c. f.
Rich, as above intimated, will occupy
the same store with his present line of
books, stationery and variety goods. We
wish the firms success.

OBITUARY.


Z PROSPER ELlTllORP.
was born in Bridport. Vt, March 6, 1913,
and died in Bridport June y. 1897 He
left two sons, viz: Almon Elithorp of
Lime Springs, Iowa, and Harlow Eli
thorp of Vergennes, Vt. and one daugh-
ter, Mrs. Hiram w. Kingsand of Bird
port, VT.
In the death of the late Prosper Eli
thorp the town, church and society has
! lost one of its most substantial members
one of the pillars for right, liberty and
intelligence. He was one OF the warmest
advocates of prohibition as the law of the
state for temperance, and total abstinence
as the only safe rule for the Individual.
Oftentimes in this cOunty's temperance
conventions his voice was heard in earn
est tones for prohibition. As to the
general intelligence he stood by and sus
tanned with warm appreciation what he
thought best on the line of common
school interests. And his own reading
and intelligence were on advanced lines
from the best authors of the times, and
right to date as to scientific tastes, i'm
prOvement and development. \ wide
reader of history made him most intel
ligent conversationalist and companion
able visitor. His patriotism was of the
highest order, and thus his citizen
ship the best. And as to character he
stood for Christian ideas and truths as
the most safe for individual home and
society. Often in his last sickness he
referred to Christ's Sermon on the Mount
as the model and marvel of moral and
spiritual teachings. He rested on Christ
as the Rock of Ages" for his faith and
immortal hopes. Thus he lived to be
missed in and out of the home as one of
the truest guardians of society B.

Than tse Moral.
1t was the opinion OF James Russell
Lowell, says Charles Dudley Warner
in the Atlantic, that the anti.slayery
element in Uncle Tom and Drcd stood
in the way of full appreciation, at
least in her own country, OF the re-
marllable genius of Mrs. Stowe. Writ
ing in 1889, he said: From my haD-
its and the tendency Of my studies !
cannot help looking at things purely
from an aesthetic point Of view, and
what I valued In Uncle Tom was the
genius, and not the moral This had
been his impression when he read the
book in Paris, long after the whirl OF
excitement produced by its publication
had subsidized. and far removed by dis
lance from local influences. Subsc-
ouently, in o review, he wrote; we
felt then, and we believe now, that the
secret of Mrs. Stoves power lay in that
same genius by which the great sue
cesses i'm creative literature have al
WAYS been achievcd-the genius that
instinctiyely goes TO the urGnn:c ele-
merits Of human nature, whether under

lie Struck the Bride.

The colored settlement over in the
Bullneck district was the scene of a high
toned wedding at noon yesterday, which
might have been pulled off all right to
the last round but for the sudden burst of
enthusiasm upon the part of the best
man, which came near precipitRting q
general riot. The adleus had been said,
and the newly married pair we're about
entering q tWo-mule wagon at the gate
for a trip to the rural villa of the groom,
when the mine was exploded beneath
them. In accordance with the usual GUS
tom on such occasions, the company had
pelted the couple with rice, hominy, and
q general assortment of groceries, when
the "best man" loped to the front with
the conventional old shoe, which in this
instance happened to be a cast off No. II

four pounds net, to say nothing Of a half
pound of dry mud that chung to the heel
and instep. The shoe hurler steadied
himself, and amidst q burst Of applause
let fly the token of goUd 'Ick. His aim
was faultless, the shoe striking the bride
In the burr of the ear and knocking her
senseless. Blood trickled from the
wound, and at the sight of this the groom
became frenzied with rage. and made for

eral tumult the mules took fright and
ran away, and the bridal trip thus came

Fred chaeffer,s fnefve acre orchard

Fred chaeffer's fnefve acre orchard,
near st. Louis, lately took a notion to
slide down the hillside and over a preci-
pice. The upper crust of earth thirteen
feet thick slid completely off, revealing,
however, q deposit of fire clay twenty
feet thick, which is far more valuable
than the recreant orchard. The moral of
this Is that what appears at first to be q
misfortune Is really a blessing.
Five years ago John Seimell of
Hazleton, Penn, felt an obstruction in
his throat which impeded his speech.
Surgical assistance seemed to be useless,
and before long Seimell was completely
deaf and dumb. A few days ago he was
attacked with a fit of coughing, and when
it stopped he was surprised to find that
the obstruction in his throat WAS gone,
and that he could talk. His recovery of
both his lost faculties is now complete,
but he is at a loss as to the nature of the
obstruction which disappeared during
his coughing fit.
