RECENT DEATHS.
Shaw.

After long and painful illness, Mrs,
Francis Jane Shaw, wife of Albert Shaw,
died at her home on Concord avenue,
last Wednesday morning.
Mrs. Shaw was born in Kirby and
married Mr.. Shaw in 1859. They lived
in Victory for many years and moved to
st. Johnsbury in 1890. Never very
strong physically. she began to fail some
10 years ago, but was able until within
three or four years to do her work and
get out to town. For the last three
years she has been unable to ride and for
many months has been confined to
her home. Her last sickness was long
and painful one, but through it all she
was patient, cheerful, very thoughtful
Of others, and grateful for the attentions
OF her family and friends. She met every
one with bright smile never speaking
ot her own feelings lest it might trouble
some one. She was a devout Christian
and member of the Methodist Episco-
pal church since 1859.
Her husband and tour sons mourn her
departure and they have the sympathy
OF host of friends. The funeral services
were held on Thursday afternoon, Rev.
Mr.. lyric officiating.
Mrs. Ella Hall Day.
1t is with sincere regret that we learn
of the death Of this beautiful and gifted
woman which occurred at Berlin, Ct.,
August &C. in her 46th year.
Mrs. Day will be affectionately recalled
by many St. Johnsbury people, especially
by the attendants OF the North church
where for several years she was a men,
Der and a constant and devout worship
er. She was an individual of striking
personality, with a face at once spiritual
and intellectual, and whose whole bear
ing was most winsome, making hosts oi
friends wherever she went.
Unfortunately her health much Of the
time was most delicate, shutting her
away from that broader circle OF society
which she was so we'll fitted to adorn.
But those who met her will long remem.
ber her and with unfeigned affection, nor
will they soon forget her constant com,
panion and only daughter. Anna, whose
charming recitations we're the delight o
so many social gatherings. To her as
we'll as to her husband in their afflictiou
very many hearts will turn with most
sympathetic thought and with prayers
that they may be attended in these dark
hours by the presence Of the Divine Com
forter. A.H.H.

IT is the common report that persons
who are not now charged with negligence
or incompetence will be caught in the net
of inquiry, while others who are openly
accused will be found blameless. If an
INQUIRY should be made into the cause of
so much sickness outside the army. it
would be found that many people who
think themselves in good condition are
really caught in the net of disease. Many
of them are losing strength, so slowly
that they do not know it, To build up

at such times if one is merely enjoy

and hunting deer are two different
matters. To hunt deer requires the
man to do some walking, and to walk
in the sultry woods where not breath
of air is stirring, will weaken a man
after it has worn out his patience and
exhausted his swearing vocabulary to
the extent that he has to repeat some
of his expressions.

up the line of the Maine Central Rail-

at about every station there was to be
seen a hunter returning home with a
prize. 1t is still little early for the
reports of the success of the hunter to
reach the ears of the commissioners

General Richards has a relic of the
of a Mauser carbine that was taken
from a Spaniard. The carbine, which
is a present from Capt. G.. w. Butler,
is really relic in looks, and 1T is an
odd one at that. 1t is very much
shorter than the ordinary carbine, and
the bore is not larger than that of a

what little steel there is. is SO badly
rusted that it appears more like a relic
of the Mexican war of 1847, than Of the
late war.
