BETHEL.

James {. Burnett died Wednes.
day night of appendicitis, after an
illness of only five days. His case
was a very pronounced and obstinate
one, and fears were felt from the first
that he might not survive the attack
Mr.. Burnett was a native of Bethel,
and was born July 9, 1887, to Aver.
i'll and Betsey Riggs Burnett. Most
of his life was spent here and he was
the possessor in remarkable degree
of the respect and confidence of his
townsmen. He was Il successful
farmer, delighting in and thoroughly
representative of his profession.
Many public honors came to him,
including those of first selectman
and town repi sentative. He was
elected to the latter office in 1890.
He married in 1859 Annette "A.
Warren, who died after I3 years.
His second wife, who survives him,
was Adellne Llbblc OF Aurora, Ill.
His children are DR.. d. l.. Burnett
Of South Royaton and Bertha and
Robert Burnett OF this town. The
late Myron Burnett was an elder
brother. His brother, Hayden, lives
in Huntington, o., and his sister,
Mrs. Matthew Hussey, in Rutland.
The Mcklnstry fam, belonging
to the ]. Wilson estate, was sold
at auction last Monday to Nj. NJ.

The following nominations for
town representative have been made:

There was colored baptizing at
Sandy Bottom, Blllville. The last con-
vert to go under the water was an old
cOlored woman, who all the while had
been seated In rickety buggy drawn
by an ancient mule who had been
through the civil war.
She came up out of the water all
right, but after proceeding n short dis
lance on her way home the mule be-
came unmanageable and upset the bug
gy in the middle Of deep creek.
The old woman, with drenched gar
ments, chung to "foOt log" just as the
parson who had recently baptized her
rode up.
He heard her swearing ut the refrac-
tory mule In vigorous terms; then, TAX
ing her In his own buggy and driving
to dry land, he said:
"Sister Ca'line, you hez done los all
de salvation what come tex you by de
fust baptism; so you must stop right

"NO, subj" was the reply. Il amt

Why is 1t that woman has always
been more beautiful than man? IN
human beings the attractive qualities
have always been on the side Of the
female. Why is 1t! Without wishing
to cast any dispersion on the members
Of the superior sex, we may fairly an
swer that 1t Is because they have hitll-
ertO been the less educated. But wom-
ans ideas are changing. She has lis
tened to the voice Of the tempter, whIs-
pering in her ear all sorts Of sweet fal-
lacles about equality Of the sexes, in
tellcctual development and its neces-
sity, and the like. and she has yielded
to the temptation. And the result Of
this will he that she will lose her
beauty. She will suffer in appearance
as man has done and is doing, and In
the course Of time the extremely civ
ilized races of mankind will be ugly

The Old Home week is not an
experiment it has been celebrated
now tor several years in Il number
Of New England States, and Yer
monters are beginning to take re-
newcd interest in the proposition to
establish it in this State. The Bur
lington News says:
The success winch has attended
this Old Home week, following that
in New Hampshire year ago,
ought to encourage the establishment
Of these occasions throughout the
New England States. There is no
other section of the country, indeed,
where they can be SO well carried
out. In tfiis corner of the land the
communities are more compact ;
here the traditions are more sacredly
preserved; here, in short, is the
home idea more conspicnously prom
inent than elsewhere. New Hamp-
shire and Maine have made sue
cessful experiment and Il most de-
lighttul one. 1t will bear repetition,
and we see no reason WHY we of
Vermont should not adopt it.

A NOTABLE WOMAN.

FUNERAL OF MRS. MAE (GATES)
DALEY AT WHITE RIVER JUNO
TON.
The funeral of Mrs. Mae +.
Gates Daley was held at her late
residence at White River Junction
Tuesday afternoon and was largely
attended. The Rev. Howard F.
Hill of Concord, n. H., conducted
the services, assisted by the Rev. A.
A. Bryant, rector of St. PauPs mis-
sion. There was the most profuse
display of cut flowers and floral
pieces ever seen at Il similar occasion
in this section. Members of We
mona chapter, 45, O. E. S., attended
the funeral in body, and there
were prominent members of the
Masonic order present.
Mrs. Daley was the daughter of
George w. and Mary Frances (Cur-
rieD Gates and was born at St.
Johnsbury July 3, 1860. She mar.
ried Olin W. Daley, NJ. D., Nov.
70, 1901, who alone survives her,
they having had no children. Mrs
Daley fell heir to considerable
large estate upon the decease of her
parents and only brother, which fol-
lowed in quick succession, and she
invested large share of it in erect
ing the Gates block, which was
ready tor occupancy in 1890, and
is the largest and best office and
mercantile business structure in this
section of the State. ltalso includes
one OF the finest opera houses out
side the cities in northern New Eng
land. In 1890, also, she organized
the parent company of the present
Mascoma Electric Light and Gas
Company, in which she was largely
interested at her dccease and which
now lights the ncighboring villages
of Hartford and Wilder, W.T., and
West Lebanon and Hanover, \. H.,
besides this village.
Mrs. Daley was, at the time of her
death, worthy matron OF Wenona
chapter 43, o. E. S., and had been
since it was instituted in March.
1898. She was secretary of the
White River Musical Association,
and the financial success of the last
convention there last May was largely
due to her energy and business ca
pacity.
Mrs. Daley died at the Mary
Hitchcock Hospital, Hanover, n.
H., Saturday, the 18th inst. She
had been sick for FIVE weeks and

Nothing could be more silly and
disingenuous than the effort on the
part of republican orators and Or
gans to make it appear that the anti
imperialist feeling in this country is
responsible for the activity of the
Filipinos in Luzon. They make the

it of its dignity. They strengthen
the democratic position before the
