DARWIN PAUL.

His Death Occurred Monday OF seniIe
DebIIIty--Hs was once Prominent
Citizen OF East BetheI--Hs Lived a Life
OF Honesty aud Integrity
A long life Of uprightness and integrity
was ended about noon Monday by the
death of Darwin Paul, 81, which occurred
at the home of Mr.. Pauls grand
daughter-in-law, Mrs. Annie N. Greene,
on Green street. The cause of death was
senile debility. Funeral services were
held at the house at $3.50 o'clock Wednes-
day morning, Rev. j. d. Beaman officiat-
ing, after which the body was taken to
East Bethel, where services were conduct
ed at Mr.. Paul's former home, and where
the burial took place on Thursday.
Darwin Paul was born in Royaton July
4, 1911, and was one of two sons of Dr.
Ebenezer and Betsey Woodwork Paul
who settled in Royalton in 1903. He
married, Sept. %, 1888, Harriet Almeda
Fish, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Fish of Randolph, and they moved, soon
afterward, to East Bethel where Mr.. Paul
engaged in the carriage making business,
which he followed for about 80 years
He then learned the trade Of an under
taker and continued in that business until
the death of his wife June l, 1890, when
he came 10 Brattleboro to live with his
grandson, Louis d. Greene. Mr.. and Mrs.
Paul had two children, Betsey NJ and
James D. Paul. Betsey NJ. was the first
wife of Druggist George E. Greene of
Brattleboro She died June I, 1855
James d. Paul died Sept. 3, 1857. Darwin
Paul's brother died in East Bethel April 9,
1888.
Darwin Paul was one Of the leading citi-
zens of East Bethel during his residence
in that town. He was a man of some
means, and he frequently loaned money to
his neighbors who found it more desirable
TO borrow of him than of the banks be-
cause of his accommodating disposition.
He was regarded as one of the stanch men
of the town, and people of all classes re-
spected him for his honesty and faithful
ness. He possessed considerable musical tai
ent and for several years he played the bass
viol in the church at East Bethel. A fife
which he used to play when George 4.
Greene was a small boy is still in the pos
session of the Greene family, and it has
been played to such an extent that the
finger holes are worn perceptibly. Mr..
Paul was content to remain out of public
office, and he once refused to become post
master at East Bethel, although the office
was rendered him.

STATES ATTORNEY F1sH's
Open-Handed and Determined Way
With the Addison County Liquor

With the Addison County Liquor
Sellers.
From the Mddlebury Correspondent of the
Boston Sunday Herald
MIDDLEBURY, Vt, Dec. 81, 1885,
Something of a sensation was caused here
by States Attorney Fish calling all the
suspected liquor dealers in the village to
meet him at the court house on Friday of
last week. The dealers responded, ac-
companied by their lawyers. The result
of this meeting is likely TO prove such a
lasting Importance to the temperance
element that full details of what transpir-
ed at the meeting will prove of interest.
Mr.. Fish called the attention of his
hearers to late decision of the supreme
court of the state, which affirmed the con-
stitutionality of law passed in 1888,
which authorized proceedings perpetually
to enjoin liquor dealers from violating the
law before the act was actually committed.
This law covers the owners of buildings in
which liquor is kept on sale, as we'll as the
lessee and seller. The extension of this
law to cover liquor cases was made in an
act passed at the recent meeting of the
general assembly. 1t provides for a fine
OF not less than $500 or more than $1,000.
with six months Imprisonment, for viola.
ton of the injunction; and another sec
ton provides that the states attorney
shall be liable to fine of $500 if he fails
TO do his duty in the premises.
Mr.. Fish informed the dealers that he
should do his duty, but that he deemed it
only fair to all concerned to first make
clear to them the new features of the law
under which he should take action, II is
believed that this move will close perma-
nently the rumshops of the place, as own
ers OF property will be involved in further
violations of the law to the same extent as
the dealers. The recent agitation in this
village no doubt found its Inception In the
notorious and wholesale violation of the
law on election day.

FLOOD IN TEXAS.
Former Reports of Its Disastr GUS
Results Confirmed.

AUSTIN CTex.), June 8. = Informa-
ton tonight from the fiood-stricken
district along the Colorado River to
the. northwest of this city fully con-
firms former reports of loss of life and
property. All telegraph and telephone
wires are Frustrated, while great tracts
of wheat and corn have been devas-
tated by the raging waters. Several
people are known to have persisted,
and many more are unaccounted for
at present.
To-night's report says that the river
rose SO rapidly at San Saba. that farm
ers and people living in the lowlands
were unable to make their escape.
H. P Wells, a prominent farmer hv-
ing a few miles north of the city, in
attempting to rescue his family, lost
two daughters and barely succeeded in
saving his own life and that of his
wife and one small child. The body
of one of the daughters. Lydia, was
recovered to-day hanging to the top
of a tree. During the day something

parties in boats from their perilous
positions in treetops.
There are quite number unaccount-
ed for, and it may be they have been
drowned Searching parties are still
out searching for them.
The wheat crop was swept away by
the flood, entadling a loss of thousands
of dollars. Cattle, horses and hogs
were drowned by the hundreds.
From all reports received from below
San Saba the entire country has been
laid waste, and the loss from the flood
is beyond accurate estimate at this
time, though it is thought to be in the
neighborhood of 100000. Tonight the
water is receding very rapidly, and it
is believed the worst is over.
During the flood of to-day a large
number of houses We're swept away.
Many that withstood the flood are I'M
der water, and their contents are
wrecked.
There was no direct news from
Manardville during the day, but indi-
rect information from Llano says the
town was badly devastated by the flood.
A number Of negroes are missing, and
it is presumed they have been drowned.

Abandoned Arbitration Scheme.

THE HAGUE, June 9.-The Peace
Conference entered to-day upon its

many of the delegates. The Americans,
it is added, have realized this, and have
virtually abandoned the idea of press

be considered virtually abandoned or
