Charles H. Ellicott. ton County.
In County Court, September term,
1902.
Whereas, Jessie \. Ellicott, of the
City of Montpelier in the county of
Washington, has this day filed in
the Office of the clerk of the
county court for the county of
Washington her libel for divorce
against Charles H. Ellicott, setting
forth in substance that she was law
fully married to said Charles H. Ell
licott on the 2lst day of February,
A. D., 1894 that she, on her part had
faithfully kept her marriage covenant,
but that the said Charles H. Ellicott,
on his part, had not kept the same,
for the said Charles H. Ellicott had
wilfully deserted the petitioner, and
had neglected and refused to support
her, and had treated her with intol-
cradle severity and further setting
forth that the petitioner has three
children as the fruit of said marriage
and praying that for the causes afore-
said the court would grant her a
divorce from the said Charles H. Ell
licott and further praying that the
custody of the said children be grant
ed to her
And, whereas, it is made to appear
that the said Charles H. Ellicott re-
sides without the State, where the
process of this court cannot be served
upon him, it is therefore ordered that
the said Charles H. Ellicott be notified
of the tendency of said libel, and
given opportunity to make defence
therein, and summoned to appear and
make answer thereto before the Hon
orable County Court next to be held
at Montpelier, within and for the
county of Washington, on the first
Wednesday after the first Tuesday in
September, A. D., 1902, at nine
o'clock a. M, by the publication of
the substance of said libel, together
with this order, three weeks success
sively in the Vermont Waterman and
State Journal, a weekly newspaper
published in Montpelier in said county,
the last of which publications shall
be at least six weeks previous to said
first Wednesday after the first Tues
day in September, A. D., 1902, which
shall be deemed sufficient notice to
the said Charles H. Ellicott.
Given under my hand at Montpelier
in said county, this nth day of June,
A. D., 1902.

WANT THEIR MONEY BACK.

MiddleseX continues TO furnish Il topic for
conversation among many. The latest
phase of this warmed-over story is to the
effect that passengers who Were obliged To
hire teams to transport them from Water
bury to Montpelier during the period of
repairing the road now. are demanding
that the road rebate them the price of
transportation between these two points.
1t is alleged that the railroad company
sold tickets for continuous transportation
over the line of road which was out of
commission and did not provide teams OF
conveyance where II was Interrupted by
wtshouts Some lawyers claim that the
road eau be made to rebate the amount
of transportation not used but the best
legal men of the state say that the game
is not worth the candle.

CAMP WATSON BURNED.

Camp Watson, the summer resort on
the shores of Lake Champlain, estab-
lished about forty years ago by the late
Hiram Atkins, was completely destroyed
by fire on Tuesday night. The camp
comprised four large buildings with fur
nishings for the accommodation of about
forty guests. Also fifty large tents, a boat
house, containing a dozen boats, and an
ice house, All was destroyed and the
loss is estimated at between $4,000 and
$1,000 1t was insured in the Union
Mutual Fire Insurance Company for
$1,000.
Besides this, is the private loss of
several guests, who spend the summer
there each year, which includes several
hundred dollars worth of fishing tackle
and other effects stored in the buildings.
The camp is open about two months in
the summer and was to have been opened
on Friday for the season. AT the time of
the fire no one was in charge Of the pre-
misses. The cause of the fire is not
known but is thought to be either Of in
cendiary origin or from the carelessness
OF some one, who may have been touring
in that section
George Atkins with J. H. Senter, F.
w. Morse aud w A. Briggs were to
have gone to Camp Watson Wednesday
for few days outing and members of
Capt. Atkins family were on their way
to the camp from Roselle, n. J,
1t is not known whether the Atkins es-
tate will rebuild the camp. George At
kins and Ralph B Denny, assistant secre-
tary and adjuster for tn Union Mutual,
left for the camp Wednesday morning to
investigate the matter.

There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together and until the last few years was
supposed TO be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with To-
cal treatment, pronounced il incUable.
Science has proven catarrh to be cousti-
tutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Halls Catarrh

thetic interest was her story of the
family of the assassin of the late
President Mckinley whom she knows
there III her work, and one Of her re-
grets is that she had not tried TO do
more for the saving of the assassin
himself, whom she had known as
boy and young man. The churches
and the communities in Vermont that
yet may have the opportunity to
hear Miss Reitinger are greatly to be
congratulated
