Gen. Theodore 5. Peck Of Burling.
ton has rendered to Gov. +. G. Smith
bis resignation as adiutaAt and in.
spectOr general Of Vermont, to take
effect October /, when he will be
placed upon the retired lit.
Gov Smith has rendered the posi-
ton OF adiutant and inspector general
to William H. Gilmore OF Fairlee,
for many years quartermaster general.
and lac has accepted the appointment
and his commission was signed Thurs
day.
William II. Gilmore Of Fairlee was
born in Fairlee October IL, 1889, and
was educated at New London academy
and was a member Of Co. d, sth Vt.
volunteers in the civil war, being dis
charged as quartermaster sergeant OF
the regiment.
He was a member Of the house OF
representatives in 1878, and of the
senate IN 1882. He has held the
usual town offices and has been town
treasurer of Fairlee for q years. He
was first elected quartermaster general
in 1856.
With the exception Of the adiutant
and inspector general Of New Jersey,
whose position is for life, Gen. Peck
Is the oldest adjutant general in the
United States. His commission dated
back to 1851.
When yet boy he enlisted in the
First Vermont cavalry, but owing to
his youth his parents refused their
consent to his becoming soldier, and
not until five separate attempts had
been made was he made member OF
Co. f. l,t VT. volunteers.
This was in 1861, and at the out
break of the war he fought for the
Union. In 1862, he was named as
regimental quartermaster of the 9Th
VI. regiment; in 1868, he was second
lieutenant of Co. G, in the same regi-
ment: In 1864, he was first lieutenant
Of Co. Ii, and in 1865 the company's
captain.
When the first regiment, Vermont
National Guard, was organized, he
became it's colonel, and in 1881 he
received the appointment of adjutant
and inspector general.

CHARGED WITH MURDEe.
Frank Miller of Mortified Arrested on
strong CiTcumstantIal Evidence.

Frank Miller OF Northheld Arrested on
Strong CircumstantIal Evidence.
Among the indictments reported by
Washington county grand jury
THURSDAY was one against Frank Mil
Ter Of Mortified, charging him with
the murder Of Major Sedgwick john
son. Montpelier stonecutter, June
9th.
.Tohnson's body was found in the
Winooski river June ] near a high
wall. and the supposition was that he
fell from the wall and was killed.
shortly after this it was brought to
the attention Of States Attorney
Hoar that foul play was suspected
and he has since been at work on the
case.
The grand jury spent two weeks
examining witnesses and an indict-
ment Is the result.
II appears that at the last March
term of Washington county court,
johnson testified against Miller in a
rnm ease. Miller then threatened re-
venge and johnson kept out OF his
way until the day OF death.
No one saw the fatal blow struck,
but il is known that the two were to-
oether the night Of Johnson's death
In the Central Vermont yards, near
where the body was found.
johnson drew forty dollars that
morning. and when the body was re-
covered only two dollars was found;
Miller has widowed mother and
brother in Mortified. He takes ms
arrest very coolly. Immediately at
ter the grand jury reported be was ar
rested on a mittimus, issued by the
states attorney.
He will probably be tried at this
term Of court
Mrs. johnson, widow of the mgr'
dered man. is employed at the PaVil'
ion. She stated She had been con.
vinced all along that her husband did
not meet death accidentally. TN
learning OF Miller's arrest she express
ed great satisfaction.

FLORAL HALL.
The new double-deck Floral hall i
large structure, with a vast amount
of room. a common sized exhibit
would get lost in this hall, but it wa.
comfortably well filed. One would
go far in search of a larger or better
showing Of fruits and vegetables
This has been wonderful year for
this branch. The Billings people and
Slocum's Highview Farm were the
principal exhibitors here, but there
were many smaller ones. There were
only a few entries Of honey, maple
products, preserves and culinary arti-
cles, and the dairy was almost for
gotten.
Downstairs, the ladies held sway
and from appearances they have been
fairly busy of late. In the fancy
department there were all of s63
different articles, shown by 247 differ
ent persons. A feature was a grand
total of 65 sofa pillows. OF house,
hold articles rugs, quilts, etc., there
were 25s, shown by Ill different
persons. Description is impossible.
Woodstock has some live merchants
who were represented here by booths
furnished with their goods. Jones
had china, Boyce had garments, Spear,
furniture, and Reyes, furs. Miss M.
Louise Greeley of White River Jet.
had number of Emerson pianos on
display. Spaulding, the Woodstock
photographer, showed a large lot of
his specimens. Two Shaker sisters of
Enfield displayed their wares.
The farm machinery articles were
less numerous than usual, but several
Of the leading houses were represented.
THE RACES.
Some good sport was provided each
day for those who like to see trials Of
horse speed. Interspersed between
the heats were music BY Dewey's band
Of Quechee and the Woodstock band,
balloon ascension and parachute
drop by Larry Lareux Of Boston, and
on the first day an exhibition Of
hurdling by Frederick Leeds OF New
York, mounted on Pedro ID. All
these features were well received.
In the $50 class, Glen Eyre would
have won in straight heats, but for
losing the tire from her sulky in the
third. She was hotly pressed though,
by the others.
Fire King had a rather easy thing
in the 2.45 class, while in the 2.25
class Rejected Sid, a diminutive but
lively animal, set the pace.
The 500 class created the most
interest. The first two heats were
taken by Mollie A., but the judges
didn't think things were going honest
and so put new drivers on the other
horses, with the result that both of
them beat out the then leader. The
last heat had to be done Friday
The 2.30 class was taken by Rejected
Sid, without trouble.
The running race caused a great
deal of excitement, the two leaders
being almost neck-and-neck, with
remarkably low time.
A 2.l7 class was made up for Sailor
Boy and Florence H., but in the first
heat the latter horse got disabled by
slipping shoe and could not develop
her accustomed speed, so that the race
was not finished.
The starter was C. f. Pike OF
Claremont, N. H.; the judges, Mr.. |
Pike, c. o. Remington and Robert
Wilcox Of Providence; the timers, N.
NJ. Draper of Randolph and ID. G.
Sherwin of Woodstock; clerk, Linn
