OBITUARY..
WILLIAM HOWE MATTHEW'S.

WILLIAM HOWE MATTHEW'S.
Mr.. Matthews, whose death from apop-
lexy after few hours illness on Monday,
July II, came as a shock to many peo-
pie, was born in South Braintree. Mass,
July 2G, 1892. His parents were Rev.
Lyman and Rachel Howe Matthews, and
he was the eldest of seven children, but
one of whom, Dwight. brother much
beloved by him, now survives. lie was
twelve years of age when his parents re-
moved to Cornwall. VT, where he lived
till about three years ago. For many
wears his sister Abbie was his house
keeper. between whom and himself a
beautiful devotion subsisted until her
lamented death in 1891. In 1894 he mar
ried Mrs. Ella Waldron of Millville, n.
y, and soon after with her and her
daughter Hattie removed to his late resi-
dence in Middebury. Most of his life
was passed as a farmer, In which occupa-
ton his mechanical ability was of much
assistance. Mr.. Matthews was a very
intelligent man, possessed of good con-
versational powers which rendered his
society agreeable, and his ability and
common sense gave weight to his Opin-
ions. This was evident in town meet
ings where he was frequent spokesman
and was looked up to as a good adviser.
He was always interested in the welfare
of the community and was we'll posted
in history and traditions. His removal
to Middlebury brought him into closer
association with many whom he had
long known, and placed him in position
to make many new friends. He was a
man adapted to make friends, because of
qualities already alluded to, and because
of his geniality and kindness in doing
things for others. His church relations
were very important to him. He joined
the Congregational church in Cornwall
in 1865, and remained to the end loyal
and devoted member. He attended its
morning services on the last Sunday of
his life, as unconscious as any of the fact
that before another day should be COM
pleted he would be done with the scenes
of earth. That Sunday was as beautiful
as ever dawned, and in that he could not
have been more highly favored had he
had the opportunity to choose. A brief
service was held at his late residence on
the Wednesday following, after which
the remains were taken to the church al
Cornwall, where many sorrowing friends
gathered for the funeral exercises. And
then he was laid in the cemetery close
by, near others of the family who had
gone before, his resting place beautifully
trimmed with evergreen and flowers
such as he loved. Many there are beside
the surviving relatives who are saying
81 have lost a friend Y.

\ Monday Blaze.

An alarm of fire shortly after o'clock
on Monday was responded to promptly
by the hose companies. The blaze was
in a small outbuilding on the fair
grounds at the rear of the Pierce House
and was quickly eXtinguished after the
first stream was got on it, which was
not until the shed was practically
destroyed. The alarm caused consider
able apprehension among those of our
people who knew that the low water in
the river was causing the waterworks
people trouble, and, as it was, only a
feeble stream was secured. What the
result would have been had the fire been
in business or residence block can only
be coniectured; but the experience is
hardly a desirable one, and If the safety
of the village from fire is dependent up
on the height of the water In the river,
the matter deserves the attention of the
commissioners.

of his church.
Misses Ella and Mabel Bond will take
possession of the Bond cottage at Lake
Dunmore on Monday. They will have
for guests Misses Alice Newton aud
Grace Cowen of Holyoke, Mass. who
are expected to reach here tomorrow.
The soaking rain of Monday night and
Tuesday came none too soon to save
crops. The lawns about the village
were beginning to show parched spots
and the low water in the river had
caused great trouble to the mills along
its banks. ~
The county fair premium list is now in
the hands of the printers, and will be
ready for distribution about August l..
1t will be full of good things for that
numerous class who are of opinion that
they make or grow things just a little
better than anybody else.
We are requested to announce that
next Sunday and thereafter the services
in the Catholic church will be held at
the same hours as before Father Gelot's
departure for Europe, viz: low mass at
80 IA. M, high mass at 10 a. M, ben
ediction and catechism to follow as
formerly.
DR.. j. Delton Fancher, representing
f. c. Dewitt & Co. of "Little Early
Riser" fame. was in the village this
week looking after the interests of his
firm. The DeWitts are one of the best
advertisers in their line with which
newspaper publishers deal, and their
goods cannot be praised beyond their
deserts.
One act from "The Man from Boston,
was played in the village early in the
week. The man in this case was Edgar
Clark and the act was that of getting
drunk. He appeared before Justice
Moore on Monday and admitted the facts
in the case. On default of fine and costs
he was placed in the county bastile tC

STIR THINGS UP | SAY.
MAKE A SENSATION,
SET PEOPLE TO THINKING.

Chapman wants everybody to know
that he sold his business July . to John
Q. Dickinson and Frank Remick and the
new folks are Remick q Dickinson.
Chapman wants them talked about. He
wants their name in everybody's mouth
and their address in everbody's mind,
and there's nothing like a sensation to
put it there. Well, to get down to what
was going to say, their new fall stock
will be in about County Fair time or
sooner, and they will make a good re-
port later. Thanking everybody for
their generous support in the past, and
hoping tht everyone of that everybody
and lots more, too, will still come to

RURAL FREE DELIVERY.

South Burlington Now Has the Expert
ment in Working.
The town of South Burlington is about
to realize the benefits of the rural de-
livery of mail matter. The arrange
ments for the experiment with rural free
delivery have been made to begin on
July 20 and continue for about a year.
If successful, there is no reason why the
experiment should not be made a per-
manenecy.
Stephen E. Mckenzie and George p.
Partridge have been selected as carriers.
They will have teams and leave the Of
flee in the morning, delivering and col
lectng the mail at every house. These
carriers are permitted to carry passengers
or packages, from which they may collect
fee.
Through the efforts of Postmaster w.
E. Hall, South Burlington was selected
as one of the 80 points at which the gov
eminent would try free delivery. The
government estimates results in the
quantities of mail handled and all people
| living in South Burlington should ar
range to have incoming and outgoing
mail pass through the hands of these
carriers.
The following circular has been issued
from the office of the postmaster general :
The ultimate success of the experiment
of free delivery of mail, which is now be-
/ ing tried, by direction of congress, in
80 rural districts of the United States,
will depend largely upon the prompt
ness with which the carriers can make
their deliveries to the patrons on their
routes. This will be greatly facilitated
if those desiring to take advantage of
rural free delivery will erect suitable
boxes by the roadside in which carriers
may deposit mails as they pass, and
from which they may collect the mails
intended for transmissions.
The time which would otherwise be
consumed by carriers in reaching resi-
dences some distance back from the
road will thus be saved, the service will
be rendered more efficient, its cost will
be reduced and the probability of its be
coming permanent feature of posta
administration will be ncreased.-Fre

ment thereof are subject to stamp tax
