CAPT. BROWNELL
DECLARED TO BE
AN ASSASSIN

of God BY man who is not worthy the
name Of soldier or that of a citizen Of Yer
mont. Rev. Mr.. O'Sullivan stated that he
referred to Captain Brownell Of Burling
ton.
William Theriault of Montpelier re-
sponded to the toast "0ur Patron.
Rev FIR. Hickey was the closing speak
er of the evening, who concluded by sing
ing Dear Old Ireland
After the song by FIR. Hickey, Hon. f.
w McGettrick arose to explain why he, as
head of the Knights of Columbus, had not
officially protested the action of Capt
Brownell Personally he said nothing in
his memory had made his blood boil 50 as
had this outrage. He further said that In
addition TO what has come from our Sena-
tor--Mr. Proctor-that Captain Brownell
killed this priest in cold blood because he
would not reveal his priestly secrets or
give up his money, when the charges
were made to the government, Capt.
Brownell came forward and gave up the
money so lily gotten. The government
has done everything in its power to cover
up this outrage, and Senator Proctor says
he is the best type Of an American sol
dier. But as an American who has worn
the uniform he asserted that no brave and
patriotic soldier ever descended to the
numbering Of an innocent priest.

House Partly.
IN FIRE THIS MORNING
E. NJ. Lyons Suffers Loss on High
land Avenue Fire Caused BY
Boy Playing With Matches.

A fire starting in the barn at e. M. Ly-
on's place on Highland Avenue this fore
noon about II o'clock destroyed the barn,
part of the house, two horses, two ex
press wagons, and the greater part of the
furniture of two families In the Lyon
house. The fire also communicated to the
house Of Edwin Carleton on the same
street and did some damage to the exterl-
or Of that
In the Lyons barn were two valuable
horses and they were burned to death. In
the basement were three sows, one with
litter of eight four-day's old pigs. They
were all rescued after the fire was under
control Two express wagons in the barn

on furniture. His insurance is $500 on
house, 5000 on barn and $500 on furni-
ture, all with the Ballard agency.
The fire started in E. NJ. Lyons barn.
and when discovered by Mrs. Lyon, had
spread all through and to the outside Of
the building. In opening the door from
the house into the barn, the blaze flashed
In Mrs Lyons face and burned her face
and hair She ran out to q neighbors and
asked them to send in an alarm, but II. j.
Colburn, working on the Gates house had
seen it and rung ia an alarm almost as
soon as Mrs. Lyon discovered it. The de-
partment made very quick time up Wash
ington street and Highland Avenue, bat
the barn was one big blaze on its arrival
and the fire had communicated to the
house and also to Edwin CaFlet0n's house
several rods away
A stream quickly put out the fire on the
latter and another checked its progress in
the Lyon house. The fremen worked
with good Judgment and quickly had it
under control. The front part OF the Ly-
ons house was damaged only by water, so
quicklyand effectively did the department
work
The Lyons house was occupied By II M.
Lyons Oh the first door and James Mitchell
on the second door.
The Carleton house was occupied by Ed
win Carleton on the ground floor. Mrs o.
7. Briggs on the second floor and Robert
Nelson and mother on the third floor. Mr.
Lyon lost about half his furniture which
was insured. Mr.. Mitchell lost nearly all
OF his. He carried no Insurance.
Mr. Nelson suffered a small loss to fur
nishings and clothing
The damage 10 the Carleton house IS es-
timated at from $500 to $500, covered BY
insurance
The origin Of the fire is supposed to
have been caused by child playing with
matches in the barn

adyices by the steamer olympia from
Yokohama the Inomiuri of Tokyo states
that in Newehwang. Port Arthur, Ia.
lienwan and neighboring localities a
collision between Japan and Russia is
considered inevitable and that the
opening Of hostilitles is expected at any
moment.
The Hochi publishes the significant
report that certain Japanese generals
have caused a notice to be issued to the
reserves to be ready for mobiIizing.
The ASH says that Japanese and
British war ships have also been dis
patched to the Yalu river The Rus.
sian troops in Manchuria have been In
creased by an additional force. which
has been sent out on the pretext OF re-
placing other troops.
Japanese papers also say that a state
OF siege has been declared by the Rus
sian authorities at Talien, Kinchow
and thence to the Yalu river. Military
maneuvers are taking place, involving
much tent and field work. The Rus
slams assert that the movement is at
tributable to the strained relations be-
tween Russia and Japan.
The Japan Herald has dispatch
from Port Arthur that Russian troops
have been dispatched to Amokgang, in
Korea, and a japanese yernacular pa
per says japanese war ships have gone
there.
Chinese Removing ValuabIes.
Chinese are hurrying from New

patch of japanese and British wal
ships, in consequence Of the noneyac
uation Of Newchwang by the Rus
slams. Residents of the Chinese port
are hurrying their yaluables to Tien
tsin, Cflefu and Shanghai,
The general feeling prevailing il
Japan is shown by the large number oi
mass meetings being held. Professor
Tomidisu Of the Imperial university al
q largely attended Yokohama meeting
was loudly applauded when he declar
ed that the Manchurian problem could
be solved by no other means than war
He said that despite the talk Of pub
licIsts Japanese military and naya
forces were ready for the encounter
Finance was not a stumbling block
ard If Japan had a famine in the north
west Russia was also troubled by fail
ure Of crops along the Amur. He helt
that if Japan failed 10 make itself fel
China and Korea would throw in theh
lot with Russia. The Japan war offlc,

ments and demanded the punishment

pie and the sinking of the Clyde steam
ship Saginaw by the old Dominion steam
ship companys liner, Hamilton, occur
red between Winter quarter lightship and
Fenwick island lightship on the Virginia
coast at 40 o'clock this morning. The
Hamilton left New York yesterday after
noon at O'Clock for Norfolk and the Sag
inaw passed out the Virginia Capes at 0
O'Clock last night, bound from Richmond
and Norfolk for Philadelphia. a dense
fog settled along the coast shortly after
nightfall and while going through this fog
at reduced speed the Hamilton crashed
into the Saginaw's side about twenty feet
from the stern.
The Saginaw veered, as did the Hamil-
ton, but they had not time to clear each
other and the knife-like steel PROV Of the
south bound vessel struck the Clyde ship
on the port quarter about twenty feet
from her stern, cutting the entire rear Of
the ship away. The inrushing water
caused the Saginaw ia settle rapidly to
the stern and the impetus Of the Hamil-
ton took her out OF sight Of the crippled
vessel
When the Saginaw was again sighted
her stern was under water and her bow
high in the air Panic stricken people
rushed over her decks aud scrambled to-
ward the bow Life boats were lowered
and In the first, i5 colored women were
placed according to Second Oficer Morris,

Toronto Globe speaks of the Orders Work
for 1902.


The figures Of the operations Of the In
dependent Order Of Foresters for 1902
have been issued They show that the in
stitution is gaining not only very rapidly
In numerical strength, but In the actual
accumulation of assets. The first set Of
figures show the actual net increase in
membership during the year 1902 to have
been 1928. That is to say, after all
lapses, deaths, etc., have been deducted
the year 1902 closed with over $4,000 more
alive, active members In the order than
we're In it at the close OF 1901 The NUM-
Der of new members initiated in 1901 was
over 100 per month greater than the num-
Der initiated during 1901
The death rate during 1902 in the Order
is given as 600 per thousand, or a frac-
tion less than the year before, rate much
below that Of most Of the life insurance
companies. The average age of the mem
bership Is little over thirty-six years
The Supreme Executive say that they re-
ject larger percentage upon the medical
test than any other society on company
and that this accounts for the small death
rate.
The accumulated funds increased dur
ing 1902 by S957, 239 6j-almost $1,000
600. While these figures indicate a bet
terment in assets of Is. 10 per cent. the in-
crease in assurance at risk during the
year was only 452 per cent. Relatively,
therefore, the policyholders were Ia bet
ter position at the close Of the year than
they were when the year began. The in
crease in the premium income Of the Or
der in 1902 over 1901 was s.S7 per cent,
while the demands upon that income for
the purpose Of meeting claims was only
per cent. greater in 1901 than In 1902 n
