Hospital for Bellows Falls.

There is now every indication that a
hospital will soon be established at
Bellows Falls.
A site has been given, conditionally,
by the Morgan family, and the cam
paign of money-raising and organiza-
ton is progressing satisfactorily. The
site is 200 feet on the Rockingham
road. The conditions are that the
name must be changed from Mt. Kill
burn to Vermont name, and in case
the land ceases to be used for hospital
purposes it shall revert TO the Morgan
estate. 1t is agreed, however, that at
any timel the directors can at their
option pay 81 200 for the land and Sc
cure a clear title. An option OF 81 800
good tor two years is also given on
the remaining land lying between the
Rockingham road and the new road.
At a recent meeting OF the directors,
it was voted to accept the proposition.
This means that application will be
made to the next legislature for per-
to change the name to some
name vet to be decided upon. The di-
rectors think that an expenditure OF
perhaps $4,000 will give a hospital
adapted to the needs of
Bellows Falls They purpose to raise
this money by subscription and then il
possible arrange for maintenance so
that subscribers will not be impOr-
tuned each year for funds.
A woman's guild will doubtless be
in connection with the hos
pital association.

Mrs. Powers Reeaptured.

Deputy Sheriiis Ladd and Thompson
and Policeman Niles of st. Adams
went to the residence of Mrs. NJ. j.
Powers, July II, arrested her and in
the afternoon took her TO the state hos
pital for the insane at Waterbury.
Mrs. Powers had been missing since
she escaped from the custody of Dep
uty Sheriff William Ladd, while in the
city in attendance on the funeral OF her
daughter some time ago.
At that time Mrs. Powers left ST.
Adams by the early train for Rouses
Point in disguise, and although her
whereabouts since that time are not
altogether known, it is known positive
" that she has been in Albany and
Schenectady, n. Y, and probably in
Indianapolis.
When the officers went to the house
last Thursday the family occupying
the house told them that Mrs. Powers
was not in the house. The officers
proceeded to search the house, with
the result that Mrs. Powers was dis
covered in an upper room. At sight
of the officers the woman dove into a
closet and commenced 10 disrobe as
rapidly as possible, succeeding in get
ting off one shoe before being seized
by the officers When finally in their
grasp she began to scream, kick, bite
and pull hair in her endeavor to es-
cape, and was finally picked up and
carried bodily to the Franklin county
Jail.
Within a short time three prominent
citizens OF st. Adams have received
communications. unsigned, but bear
ing evidence OF having emanated from
Mrs. Powers, TO the effect that their
doom was sealed and that they would
"die by the bullet within six months.

Annie Graham . Vermont Gin.

Annie Graham, the l7-year-old Girl
VINO disappeared from her home in
Central Falls, r. L., with Daniel ID.
Bourne and who took poison with the
latter, IS thought to be the Annie Ora
ham who formerly resided at Williams
town. Her friends at the latter place
are positive that the two are one and
the same person.
Annie Graham was adopted by Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Perry of Williams
town, some time ago when she was
quite young. A year ago when Mr..
Perry died the girls own mother came
and took her away. Since then her
Williamstown friends have known
little OF her, but they are convinced BY
the description Of the girl that she is
the same person that lived there. She
Is described by them as rather good
looking and was a popular young
woman.
The circumstances Of the case are
peculiar, the girl, who will probably
recover, saying that Bourne had a
strange influence over her. She re-
turned TO her parents last Tuesday and
said she had been with Bourne.
She also said he had persuaded her
TO drink half the contents OF a two
ounce bottle of laudanum Bourne
drank the remainder. This happened,
she said, in the woods OF South Attle-
boro, where they had passed Sunday
night
After losing consciousness she
awoke and found Bourne by her side
dead. Although still suffering from
the effects OF the drug. she was able TO
lind her way home.
A searching party was organized,
and Bourne was found where the girl
said she left him. He was alive then,
but died Wednesday at Pawtucket
emergency hospital In his pockets
were the empty laudanum bottle, ar
senic and opium.

Recover Articles Stolen from Church

In addition to the evidence in the
case of Polombo Gennaro, the Italian
who is under arrest for small thefts
in st. Mary's cathedral, Burlington,
and who is suspected OF being the one
who stole the sacred vessels from
that edifce, Sheriff Thomas Reeves
has secured the sacred ciborium, the
luna, the corporal, and other missing
articles The property was located
on Cherry street and was in a grip,
which is the property OF Gennaro.
In addition to the sacred articles there
were 100 strings OF beads, 20 prayer
books, in many of which were written
the names of prominent worshippers
of ST. Mary's cathedral, twenty-five
pairs of gloves, and several handker-
chiefs. There was also a quantity
of altar linen that had not been missed
from the cathedral. The sacred arti-
Giles were returned at once to the
cathedral.
The respondent says he came from
Genoa, Italy, in May, but that he ar
rived in Burlington in June. He
claims to be a stone mason but his
hands indicate that he has not done
any hard work recently. He was
taken before Judge Hawkins but the
the hearing was continued.

usefulness for war is concerned, 1t
might be deemed destructive, but in its
production of fertilizers it is creative,

Is preservative OF human life. Chemis-

and the same may be said Of vegetable
oils and of all the pigments employed

preserved by the help Of salicylic acid
