BRIDGET QUINN.

Bridget Quinn, whom everybody in
Island Pond knew, died last Sunday, and
many, many old friends who have moved
away to other parts will hear of her
death with sadness. An extended
sketch of the career of the deceased
would prove very interesting reading,
but we have not the data. She was I'M
doubtedly over 80 years of age. Bridget,
Gas she was familiarly called) came to
Island Pond almost so years ago, and
was then we'll advanced in years. She
went to work for A. c. Jennings in the
Island Pond House, and later was en-
ployed in the Vermont House, which
stood where the Bartlett block now is.
Here she married man named Blan-
Ghetto, but he deserted her about year
after the marriage, and she resumed her
maiden name, Bridget Quinn. She next
went back to the Island Pond House,
worked there under landlord Waterhouse
and later for landlord Stone, and wher-
ever employed was known as faithful
and industrious woman. When Mr..
Stone and family left town Bridget
moved to house on Mountain street
where she had since resided. Everybody
had a pleasant word and friendly nod
for Bridget, and she in turn greeted
everybody in the most cordial manner.
Funeral services (solemn high mass of
requiem) was held Tuesday morning at
the Church of St. James the Greater,
Rev. FIR. Kelly of Norton officiating.

CONSPIRACY TO BRIDE.
Fraud Order Was Issued and Then
Fixed Up.


Cincinnati, O.. Oct. S.-Daniel V. Miller,
late assistant attorney general for the
postoffice department, and Attorney Jo-
seph Johns were indicted by the United
States grand jury today, charged with
conspiracy TO commit an offense against
the United States.
Daniel V Miller was employed as sec
ond assistant to Attorney General Tyner,
of the postoffice department Joseph
Johns was an attorney at Rockville, Ind,
where he was arrested May p. MilleD
was arrested the same day in his offices
at Washington.
The allegations upon which the arrests
were based related TO charges of extort-
ing a bride from John j. Ryan, of j. ].
Ryan & Co., turf commissioners. Prior
to their arrest postoffice inspectors had
recommended that a fraud order be issued
against the Ryan firm. suspending all its
mail Ryan and Judge Outcact went to
Washington to argue their case, Attor-
ney Miller representing the other side.
Ryan claimed his company had enough
money to pay all depositors in fun, and.
as result of the hearing, Acting Atto-
ney General Christiancy recommended
that the postoffice inspectors make an
other investigation. They did so, and a
second time fraud order was recon-
mended.
A few days later, according to tele-
grams produced before the grand jury,
Miller telegrahed Johns to deal with
Ryan. meeting was held at the Glib
son house between Johns and Ryan. in
which Ryan paid $500 of which $3.50
was for a favorable decision on the
scheme allowing Ryan continued use of
the mails and $1,000 was for revising
Ryan's advertising matter so as to con-
form to the ruling of the attorney gen.
eral. Ryan paid the amounts in checks,
which are held as evidence against Johns
and Miller

c'est tot qui me les a dounees. ...Que
