OBITUARY..
EA. DENN1soN B. KINGSLEY.

DEA. DENNISON b. KINGSLEY.
The people of Salisbury were saddened
on the morning of Feb. by the report
of the death of Dea. u. B. Kingsley,
after short illness with pneumonia.
There was general sense of personal
loss. The deceased was forty-slx years
old. He came to Salisbury with his
father from Brandon before he was four
years old and resided there until his
death. In 1879 he formed the firm of
Kingsley Brothers with his brother
Charles, for manufacturing wood pulp,
and continued In the business to the time
of his death. In 1880 he was married to
Miss Francis E. Evarts, who with two
daughters survive him. He united with
the Congregational church in 1873 and
was chosen deacon of the church in
1891. Dea. Kingsley's life was character
lied by conscientiousDess and faithful
ness in all his relations. No one COM
manded greater respect His faithful
ness entered his Christian and church
life. He counted for live Christian in
the church, not simply increasing its
numbers, but adding to its spiritual
power. In manner he was quiet and re-
firing and was great lover of his home.
The funeral was held from the church at
two O'Clock Thursday afternoon, Feb.
1O,, his pastor officiating, and was
largely attended by friends and neigh
bOrs, who mourn his loss. The burial
was at the village cemetery. b.

Vermont's Public Libraries.

Prof. G. B. Wright has an article IN
the February "Vermonter" on the "The
Value of a Library to Community"
This issue of the magazine is devoted to
public libraries and contains many hand.
some half-tone engravings of library
buildings in Vermont towns. Middle
bury is .consplcuously absent from the
list of towns owning public libraries.
Since the passage of the state library
law, sixty-four towns have established
such Institution and received from the
state books ranging In number from 90
to 147 each. The state has also helped
such libraries in other material ways
by securing for them low rates for books
and supplies. The reports from these
new institutions indicate that they have
been largely augmented by gifts of
books from individuals and organiza-
tons, and the president of the state
board of library commissioners saws
that "to many of the libraries gifts of
money varying in size, have been made
by those who, with a thought for the
future, as we'll as interest in all that ele-
Yates and refines in the present, have
seen In the free public library most
favorable channel for their benevolence. +"
From all that has been said of the mat
ter 1t is clear that no system of public
instruction can be complete without the
adjunct of free public library, and that
no community Is doing its full duty
toward young and growing minds which
! fails to place within their reach all that
is best of the worlds literature.

Fn;GeW-The History OF the Case and
Events which CauSed il.

The town Yesterday lost its suit
with Maloney 6; S6h of Bellaire in
the United States District Court aud
Judgment was rendered in favor of
the plaintiffs for $G,52o at Parkers-
burg yesterday. This was Sur
prise to the city officials who were
conducting the suit as they were
confident that a decision would be
given in favor OF themselves.
The controversy out of which
grew the suit begun in 1895. Ma
loney & Sen were awarded a street
paving contract by the city council
and after the completion of the
work they presented bill for more
than was due them, which the
council refused to pay.
According to the engineers report
and the city's books there remained
9 balance due them of something
like six or eight hundred dollars.
Outstanding orders were accepted
by the council until this balance
was reduced to $594. so. This bal
ance was rendered Maloney, but he
persistentiy refused to accept it.
The council refused to accede, to his
demands and during the spring of
81 he instituted suit against the
city in the Federal court for about
81 900.
In order to make up the bill to
this amount he Matched bill for
extras amounting to about S. 500.
The contract apparently covered
the whole Of this extra work and
the town officials were confident of
easy sailing, This case could have
been compromised and the suit with
drawn for about $500 but the coun-
Gil of last year refused 10 hear anv.
thing but the acceptance of that
which was rightly due from them.
The plaintiffs won the suit on
the grounds that they lost much
time and were greatly inconven-
fenced and delayed by the town au-
thorities allowing teams to pass
over their work while under con-
StruCtlon.
While the bill is unjust, the city
can do nothing more now but paw
the amount Of the judgment.
Nothing less than $4,000 is ap-
pealable.

torney F, i. Blackmarr and the
plaintiffs had for their attorneys

OF the drawing az nearly as possible.
The petals are of bright yellow. In
painting them use silver yellow and
mixing yellow. The cups of the flow
ers are tinged with deep yellow, and
should be shaded at the base as well
as the leaves with brown green.
The foliage of this plant is,naturally
stiff, and is of rich green tone. Use
grass green, apple green and brown
green in painting this. 1t is always
well to use combination of greens
rather than a single shade, as in ma
ture one finds that leaves are quite va
ried on the same plant. The effect of
work thus executed is much more pro-
fessional in appearance, point all
china painters aim to attain.-N. B.
