He held an autopsy and reported

A SUDDEN DEATH.

Mrs. Albert Bradbury died Thurs
day noon after an illness of only two
days. The people generally were
greatly shocked by the suddenness of
her death. Mrs. Bradbury's maiden
name was Addic Morse, and she
was the daughter of the late Jesse
Morse of Canaan, n. II. Twelve
years ago Mr.. Bradbury came to
Bethel from Enfield, n. H., with
his wife and two children, William
J., and Addie. The family has
made many friends here during that
time and very genuine grief and
sympathy are extended from all sides
to the bereaved ones. Edwin A.
Morse of Enfield and F. p. Morse
of Elwuod, n. H., are her brothers.
There is to be prayer at the house
this morning, funeral service at
Enfield and burial at West Canaan.

overthrow has served to show the bet
ter partisans that only fair purposes
will win in the long run, and that these
alliances with nothing worthy behind
them are doomed to perish utterly.
Union in a righteous cause may be sue
cessful, but such the modern fusion has
never been; and no one realizes IL more
fully than the straight-out Democrat
who has just seen a conglomerate ticket
bearing his old party's name go down
in defeat as overwhelming as 1t was
deserved. Perhaps it will result in an
awakening which, for the good Of gen.
uine Democracy, has been all too slow

Storm. strong with all the bitter heart of

Smote England now nineteen dark

As when the tides full wrath in sea-

Smiles and bears back the swimmer.
Fraud and fate
Were leagued against her Fear was fain

or honor in dishonor, pride brought

And humbleness, whence holiness must
grow,
And greatness born OF shame TO be so
great.
The winter day that withered hope and
pride
Shines now triumphant on the turning

That sets once more our trust in freedom

That leaves a ruthless and a RUTHLESS

And all base hopes that hailed his cause,
laid low.

No Hurry About the Canal.

The house can afford to make haste
slowly with the Nicaragua canal bin.
Nothing can be gained by attempting to
fierce through the Hepburn BILL because
it would undoubtedly be held up in the
senate to await action on the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, to say nothing of the
report of the commission now investi-
eating canal conditions on the isthmus
Friends of the canal should remember
that extraordinary insistence upon inn
mediate legislation can scarcely fail to
prejudice their cause. There is no oc-
casion for expedition. The canal will
not be built in a day, and it is more i'm
portant than anything else that the en-
cheering. diplomatic and financial pre-
limnaries should be settled first.
A commission is now in the field
studying routes and practical problems.
1t seems to most people only ordinary
prudence and business common sense to
see what these gentlemen, appointed
under an act of the last congress, have
to say about canal routes. Then there
is the Clayton Bulwer treaty. 1t is
acknowledged by everybody but the
congressional Jack-the-Rippers that we
have TO take that fusty document into
consideration. To ignore Il is to invite
unnecessary difficulties. A treaty has
Asan x,yttt Tttft IN In tr
which it is abrogated, and an agreement
is reached that will give us an undis-
puted right TO go ahead with canal con-
struction unhampered by protests from
without. But this treaty has sim to be
acted upon by the senate; and in this
connection the important detail whether
the canal is to be fortified by us or TO
have its neutrality guaranteed by joint
action Of the nations remains to be de-
termsned.
1t would seem. in view of this situa-
ton. that those who insist upon rushing
through q canal bill are neither polite
nor wise. II is like passing an appro-
priation bill before it has been consider
ed by the appropriations committee.
There is nothing to be lost by dellber-
alton, there is nothing TO be gained by
haste. The advocates of the canal VIII
not make favorable impression upon
public opinion by forcing the issue at
time when all conditions favor well con-
sidered action.
