RISING WATERS

The city was threate ed on Sunday with
Hood. The rain came down internationally
all day and the Main and State street mer-
chan,s took time by the forelock and placed
the goods in the basement OF their stores in
place OF safety.
In the North branch the water rose to six
and half feet above the low water mark
or about foot,and half above the level
OF the cellar bottoms OF he Langdon blocks
on Langdon avenue. The scale on the wall
beneath the Langdon avenue bridge was
watched by crowds with interest through
out the day and evening.
From about noon TO two o'clock in the af-
ternoon the stream made its greatest jump
of six inches but during the night the water
lowered over two feet.
While the water came into several OF the
store Easements there was not enough to do
any damage. Langdon block, No. 2, had
the greatest influx of water, it reaching a
depth of ten inches along toward evening.
But these buildings had been equipped
for such an emergency and early in the
morning syphon operated by Berlin water
held its own until in the afternoon, when
the water came in greater quantity. Then
the two force pumps in the No. building
were connected with the auxiliary boiler IL
the rear OF the N, building and these
pumps easily cleared the water out of the
Easements.
O. B. Roberts, superintendent Of streets
was everywhere during che day and eve
ing, keeping the sewers clear aud watching
the highways threatened by the rising flood.
On lower State street between Merrill Rus
sells residence aud the elevation in the
road near the Cemetery, the Winooski
oveItlowed its banks and flooded the street,
the water at one point being three feet
deep. Mr.. Roberts weighted down the
plank walk in that section so that it could
not be carried away. He also found the
road leading from Liberty street to the
Heaton hospital in such danger rs condi-
ton from the water working in the clay
and quicksand that he has cut it off by a
fence for the present. He says, however,
that access to the hospital may be gained by
way of the College street entrance or by
way OF the brickyard.

STARTLING DISCOVERY.

A stsrtling discovery was made on Friday
by trapper while hunting muskrats in
the marshes along Lewis Greek on the land
OF G. E. Ball Of North Ferrisburg. While
working through the bushes he came upon
the headless body OF a man lying in the wa
ter. AS soon as he realized the Importance
OF the discovery he ran to the residence of
Reuben Haight and notified him OF his dis
covery. He and Mr.. Hsight then returned
to the spot and found the body lying on
block OF ice in the back water OF the stream
about fifty feet back from the banks OF the
streams. They removed the body from the
water and then notified the town author
tiles OF the discovery. Selectman Harry
Deane and Health officer DR.. e. V. Rey-
nolds, DR.. g. P. Collins OF Ferrisburgh and
DR.. +. O. Phelps OF Vergennes went TO
where the body was found and made an ex-
animation of the remains.
The examination showed that the body is
that of comfortably dressed working man.
The head and one hand are entirely gone
and the body was clothed with underwear
trousers, overalls and heavy rubber lined
working coat. On one foot was shoe ap-
parently several sizes larger than the foot
itself. On the body twenty cents in money
was found and the only paper (, und was a
piece OF the Daily argus Of Montpelier, on
which was news despatch, dated White
River Junction, Sept 8, 1900.
The greatest mystery is whose body it is
anu now uld the man meet his death?
Nothing has yet been brought to light that
gives any clue to these facts, but it is gen.
orally thought the man was tramp and
some think he was killed by a railroad
train. This seems quite improbable as the
body would have had to drift about three
miles from the nearest railroad bridge to
have reached the spot whero it was found.
No one in this vicinity or along the river
banks has been missed in recent months. 1t
is believed the body has been in the water
for about six months. The body was buried
today by the authorities OF F-rrisburgh.
The body was identified on Saturday after
DON by Reuben Haight Of that town as that
OF Dennis Deshaw of Waitsfeld, Mass, his
father-in-law.
Deceased was seventy-fve years old. Lest
October he walked from Waitsheld to
North Tunbridge to see his daughter. At
her home he was mistaken for tramp and
was turned away, TO perish on the land of
his son-in-law, not far from the house. Mrs
Hight is completely prostrated by the dis
coVery

HUBBARD PARK

1t is reported that the park commissioners
are intending to secure plans and begin the
work this season of laying out Hubbard
Park. 1t will be remembered that by the
provisions Of the will of the late John E.
Hubbard, who gave the land to the city,
that in case in the settlement Of his estate
after the other bequests were paid, enough
remained for the purpose, $40, 900 should go
to the city for immediate improvements of
the park, and $4,000 to be used as fund
for maintenance.
Some time ago it was reported that the
estate light not be able to carry out the
monetary part of this bequest, or at least
respecting the permanent fund. It is now
said, however, that it is more than probable
that nearly If not all the $4,000 will come
to the city.
Some Of the city officials, when asked
about the matter Tuesday, looked wise but
said that they were not ready to give out
anything on the subject at present, but it
YVES admitted that the mayor had instruct
ed the city attorney to prepare a deed for a
plot of ground on Summer street, which be-
longed to the Hubbard estate and is con-
tiugent to the park

DEATH OF OLD vERMONTERS IN
CALIFORNIA,

The San francisco Chronicle Of March 81
contains announcements OF the death OF
Horatio M. Templeton, March 20, and that
OF Lesnder @. Cole, March 30. These men
were natives OF Vermont. Mr.. Templeton
was son OF the late Horatio Templeton OF
Worcester. Three sisters are living in the
latter place, a brother in Grand Forks,
North Dakota, and another in Omaha,
Nebraska.
Mr.. Cole formerly lived up the Branch.
OF him the Chronicle says; Cole came to
California from his native State, Vermont,
in 1851. For time he engaged in mining
and was fairly successful, but in 1860 he
went to Australia, where he secured gov
ernment contracts for carrying mail and
express matter over the stage lines which
he established and which he managed for
ten years, amassing large fortune. Re-
turning to America in 1870, he took up his
residence In this city and began speculating
in real estate. He died possessed OF con-
siderable fortune. Several years ago he
had stroke OF paralysis, and since that
time he has attended to little or no BUSH
ness. He partly recovered from his first
stroke aud hope was entertained that he
would entirely recover, when the second
stroke came and rendered him perfectly
helpless. For the past few weeks his death
has been expected at almost any time. In
the early seventies Cole took quite an active
interest in politics and was elected to serve
one term as member OF the city council
but politics was not to his liking and he re-
fused denomination.
He leaves no relatives on this coast ex-
cept brother, Daniel T. Cole, who for
many years has been the chief coner in the
San Francisco mint, and an adopted daugh-
tor, the wife OF Douglas Tilden, the well
known sculptor,

is no matter about The price. 2nd, That q
gallon OF one kind Of paint can contain
twice as much paint as gallon of another
kind of paint.

two to one-but that isn't all. This story,
however, skips the rest-how it wears is
the rest
Another, same town Ferguson & Thomp-

A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS,

We are glad to be able to record the sue.
cess of the American Agricultural Chemical
Co.. in its attempt to bring the manufacture
Of commercial fertilizers into accord with
modern methods.
In spite of considerable advance in the
cost OF raw materials, and the extra ex.
pense incident to the bringing into orderly
and uniform system, score or more Of in
dependent establishments, the Company is
able to put its fertilizers on the market this
year without any advance in price. This is
the test that the farmer applies, and he is
satisfied.
The result comes from series OF econo-
mics that were not possible under separate
management of the factories, One manage
ment can install in every factory the best
machinery, and compel a uniformity of
product that could never result from the
old methods. Rival statesmen added not a
little to the expense of the business.
With 80 much accomplished in the intro
duction of improved methods, we can see
that the Company starts upon another year
with increased advantages, and can COM
mend its products to the confidence OF the
farmers,

A City Park.

There is a scheme on foot to es-
tablish a park OF about four blocks
in the northeast part of the city .
the ground running up on the hill
side slightly, just Ell ough to per
NIT of nice hill side ampitheatre.
Then fence the ground nicely, and
put out shaie trees, leaving one
block in the center for n ball
grounds. The Municipal society
could erect pavilion suitable for
dancing and also for receptions. In
the course Of few years it could
be made a lovely place, almost II
Garden of Eden. A beautiful lake
OF an acre or more could be easily
formed to add TO the landsca pc and
around the whole could be made
almost half mile race track for
training purposes. The idea is to
make the park cooperative con.
Germ and it is one we can most
heartily endorse.

M. w. A. to Yakima.

Yesterday occurred the annual
log roll of the Eastern Washington
log rolling association at Yakima.
This city sent a delegation. Two
coaches and an engine were started
from this place for the accommda-
ton OF the local order here and at
Thorp. The number in attendance
from here was about 100, while
Thorp furnished about so. The
special left here about a. m. yes
terday and returned here about 2
a. m. today. This gave the boys an
opportunity to attend the grand
ball at night. The team from this
place did not enter the contest, but
it is safe to say that they had their
share of the enjoyment. The trail
was gorgcousIy decorated.
