Rev. A. j. Eastman OF Bethlehem, N. H.,
was here last week and occupied the pulpit
on Wednesday evening, using for his text
the words, "Go work in Ny Vineyard"
These were the same words he used here
twenty-five years ago when he entered the
sacred desk for the first time in his minis
terial work. He spoke effectively Of his ex-
periences and the conversions during his
stay of only ten weeks here twenty-five
years ago.
Frank Southick OF East Barre was here
last week en- route for Piermont, N. H., to
Join his brother, Fred and they were to go
to Gardner, Mass, where their mother,
Elizabeth Southick, formerly lived. 1t will
be remembered by many OF the readers OF
this paper that Mrs. Elizabeth Southick left
this place after the death of her husband,
who was a soldier, in the Civil war and
died OF yellow fever at South Carolina, In
| 1864. She left her two small boys with
friends here and nothing had been heard
| from her and her friends had never been
able to learn OF her whereabouts until re.
Gently her death was published in the pa.
pers, and her boys received letters from
Gardner saying she was burned to death or
April 3 by her clothing taking fire. She
| lived alone and was unable to put out the
flames. She was discovered by neighbol
while conscious, and every thing was done
to alleviate her sufferings but she lived
only ten hours.

The only fcntufe OF interest today was the
new arrangement made by tho Arhnckles in
rcSaid to ronsted coffces. the price OF which
was marked down lsc pound.
Under the new rule tho country 10 divided
up Into territories. with a blanket rate cover
Ing each division. and the rate includes
fright. It Is apparently for the purpose OF
carallring the price and il termed the equal
ity plan" The freight rate Is the blanket
part OF the plan, as the price Of the coffee Is
subject to change Mt any time. Tho Fanc
price Is charged TO merchant fifty miles from
Houston as 200 miles distant, regardless OF tho
extra cost in freight for the longer haul and
johbors consider II an injustice to both the
jobhtr and tho merchant who should receive
the benefit OF his advantage in freight.
All coffee within prescribed territory must
be SOLD at the same rate. with not less than
slxty days time allowed nnd not more than
percent on for cash.
