At St. Johnsbury East.

The winter term of the village school
closed Friday. Miss Atkins is spending
her vacation at her home in Cabot and
Mrs. Grout is visiting friends in Lisbon.
Harley Powers of Lunenburg was in
town recently. Mr.. Powers was for a
time a student in Barbour's Business
College and is now engaged in the ice
business in New York.

High School is spending her vacation at

About 80 of the young people in this
vicinity made an unexpected call upon
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Hovey last Tuesday
evening. 1t was a complete surprise to
them as was also the handsome chair
and silver knives and forks which were
presented them. A very pleasant even
ing was enjoyed by all.
There will be no lecture in the Congre-
gational church on March 31st as adver-
tised. He who was to have spoken upon
ultimate America has been lifted to
that height of clear vision where the
future is no more yelled than the past,
or present, but unrolls before the eye
without confusion, or concealment, OF
mist and cloud, far stretching land
scape of river, and sea, and plain and
shining peak. Those who know with
what earnestness DR.. Heath espoused the
noblest national ideals. and how broad
Iy he was able to estimate the play and
issue OF moral forces, hold an unspeak-
able regret that the lips of seer and
patriot are sealed by death. He handled
the great themes of church and state
with large thought and feeling. But,
better yet, he did his work in genuine
reverence for God and regard for man,
and when the hour came he was not
afraid to look God in the face. Such men
are the true makers of nations and EN-.
pires. With such as he ultimate Amer.
lea" is safe!

the first work of the kind done in St.

Other interesting and artistic pictures

son, who it in the regular army and is
stationed at Trinidad, Cuba. The young
man writes as follows;
Il am no longer in Matanzas, but
was sent to Trinidad FOR duty here in
the post hospital. There is just one
company of the Second infantry here in
Trinidad and nothing much to do in
the hospital. | am second cook now
and like it first rate. We are living in
a large Spanish house, one of the largest
and finest in Trinidad. 1t is big enough
to hold one thousand sick soldiers, but
we have only two sick here at present,
with six hospital men to take care of
them We get plenty of good stuff TO
eat, and use silver knives and forks and
China ware We get peas, canned corn,
steak, peaches, pears, pies bread, but
ter, eggs, etc. The only thing I don't
like is the town. 1t is very lonesome
and dead. Matanzas was more lively
more fun.
1.-The rainy season is over now and no
yellow fever or any other disease. Cuba
is not so bad as cracked up to be. 1t is
little hot but cool breeze is always
blowing, l think Cuba has healthy
climate. l have been through Cuba
now from one end to the other. Have
been at Havana, Cienfuegos, Cardinas,
La Punta and many other cities in
Cuba. 1 have seen great many sights.
In Cienfuegos harbor I saw the two
Spanish gunboats which Sampson sunk
there, and all torn-to- pieces wire fences
and trenches and block houses, and old
Spanish forts that Simpsons fleet bonn
barded a year ago last spring.
''The houses in Cuba are built from
lime stone, with no wood in the build
ings stone floors with iron bars for
windows The rich people have some
very nice houses, finished off with mar
BILE and marble floors. There are lots
of Spaniards in Cuba yet, but they are
rich and own lots of property. The
Spanish people are much better class
of people than the Cubans, as they are
brighter and more up in the ways OF
civilization.
II met here in Trinidad fellow from
Mankato whom I know, Eddie Beals,
He lives in West Mankato. He belongs
to the Second U. S. infantry, stationed
here in Trinidad. He was through the
battle of Santiago, and was shot twice,
through the left arm and through the
neck. It was close shave"

DECLARED VOID.
Mortgage on MadeIia Ware
house Set Aside.
Directors Had Given the Mortgage to
Themselves and Then FOrclosed

Judge Severance has rendered a de-
cision in the case of B. c. Taylor as re-
ceiyer of the Madelia Farmers Ware,
house Co. VS.. the directors OF the COM
pany. The action was one to set ASIDE
mortgage of $4,000 given by the d.
rectors to themselves as individuals TO
secure an alleged indebtedness OF So, 600,
the directors having forclosed the mort
gage. Judge Severance finds that the
company was insolvent at the time that
the mortgage was given, and sets aside
the mortgage, declaring all of the sub
seuuent proceedings connected with it
to be void, as preference and as being a
fraud upon the stockholders and credit
ors. The court DEGREES the title to the
warehouse property in B. G. Taylor as
receiver, and finds the value of the
property to be $4,000
The decision was filed in Watonwan
county today. 1t is probable that the
directors will follow the usual course
of asking for a new trial, and appealing
in the event of its refusal.
