few months ago he was attacked by
the disease that proved fatal. Pre-
vious TO last March his health had
been good. The deceased was eighty.
three years of age. Most of his life
had been spent in East Montpelier.
For many years he was known as one
OF the most prosperous and successful
farmers in East Montpelier and vicin.
lty. He was a Democrat in politics.
Mr.. Willard was held in such high
esteem by his fellow townsmeu that
he was several times honored by elec-

n GOLD BOMB.

st. Louis, July 11.-On Saturday
morning. Hon. W. f. Sheehsn of the
New York delegation received from
Judge Parker the following telegram
regard the gold standard as
firmly and irrevocably established and
shall act accordingly if the action of
the convention today shall be ratified
by the people. AS the platform is
silent on the subject, my view should
>be made known tu the convention, and
if it is proved to be unsatisfactory to
the majority / request you to decline
the nomination for me at once, SO that
another may be nominated before sd-
journment. "
The telegram was a bomb. The
leaders were hastily summoned for a
consultation. After a long confer.
ence between the leaders, and an ex-
citing debate at the adjourned evening
session the following reply to Judge
Psrker's telegram was adopted by
vote of 1855 to 100:
Inc platform adopted by this
convention is silent on the question
Of the monetary standard because it
is not regarded by US as possible
issue in this campaign, and only cam
paign issues were mentioned in the
platform. Therefore there is nothing
in the views expressed by you in the
telegram just received which would
preclude a man entertaining them
from accepting nomination on said
platform
The convention then took up the
matter of vice presidential candidate
and Fl. G. Davis OF West Virginia,
was nominated on the first ballot re-
ceiving 652 votes.

The seventy fourth annual meeting

LOCKJ4 ".

The dread disease of tetanus, more
commonly called lockjaw, has devel-
oped in the case of little boy of ten
years, here in Montpelier, as an after
math of the celebration of the Fourth.
Ernest Gross, son of Mrs. Ann Gross,
a widow living on Court street, lies
stricken with the disease. On Sunday
evening, July 3, the lad was playing
on Court street In the palm Of his
left hand ne held twenty-five calibre
blank cartridge and some small stones.
He was tossing the cartridge and
stones about in his hands when the
former exploded The wad was buried
in the palm of his hand and the palm
mc-e or less burned. An incision
was made in the back of the hand
and the wad removed. on Monday.
The wound did not become gangern-
Gus. and was apparently doing we'll.
On Sunday the boy seemed well and
was restive because he was kept in the
house. Monday he complained of
pains in the back. A physician was
summoned on Monday evening and it
was found that the boy is suffering
from tetanus. The disease is strongly
marked but is developing slowly, SO
that it is impossible to state the term
inaJion of the case. Anti tetanus
toxin is being administered and hope
.s- 80, hn Il
be checked. This afternoon the pa
tient is not quite as we'll as he has
been.
A peculiar coincidence arises from
the fact that Leo Duchaine, nine
year old lad in Burlington, died on
Saturday evening from the same dis
ease as a result of an accident similar
to that of Ernest Gross.
Ernest Gross lies dead. at his
mothers home on Court street. Tet-
anus has done its fatal work and
added another to the list of victims
that are sacrificed each year to the
barbarous and mistaken idea that
patriotism is best exemplifed by the
burning of gunpowder. Since last
Monday evening the poor little fellow
has been in a state of constant rigid
ity. The jaws were not completely
locked but they could be opened but a
very little. Spasmodic contractions
have been recurrent since Monday
evening. On Tuesday morning and
evening the temperature was norma II,
but this morning at six o'clock it
showed 104. s degrees, and it steadily
rose until it reached its maximum of
1885, few minutes before death.
At 10 100 this morning the end came
The patient was conscious to the last.

Nh RBLE MEN STRIKE.

Rutland, July 12.-Labor troubles
which have been imminent in var
ious Rutland county marble concerns
since June 20, came to head this
morning when large percentage
of union workmen in various fin
ishing departments left their places.
The plants of the Columbian Marble
Quarrying Co., Temple Brothers, and
W.R. Kinsman will be closed tonight.

GERS Of the Marble Workers Assooia
tion left town early this morning, not
to return unless sent for by employers.
The union men say they will stay out
till sent for by the manufacturers.
Rutland, July 12.-Following a
speech by President J A. Fitzgerald
of the International Association of
Marble Workers at the mass meeting
last evening in Woodmen's hall ris-
ing vote was taken upon motion of
Mr.. Fitzgerald to determine whether
the men would pack their tools and
walk out today. Every man in the
hall rose.
Rutland, July 13.-The striking
employees Of the various marble
concerns in this county today ex-
pressed confidence of ultimate victory,
in spite of the fact that only few
hundred went out yesterday. They
say more will strike soon.
The fact that only a few men at
Proctor, employees of the Verm ont
Marble Company, at which concern
the strike is chiefly aimed, went out
yesterday, is explained todayiby union
leaders. They say that nearly all the
Nemployes at Proctor are married and
have families; they live in the COM
pany houses and trade at the company
stores on the credit system. To have
struck would mean to have to leave
town Immediately. The company
owns everything in the shape of
houses. Many employees owe the
company store considerable money /;
they would have to pay il they
struck, or lose their household effects
and other possessions. The fact is,
they are so tied up they can't strike.
The strikers believe these men will
go out as soon as they can get their
affairs adjusted.
No change in the number of men
out in this vicinity this morning.
The rumor that a few more have
gone out at Proctor cannot he verified.
James f, and P. j. Kelley, propri-
etors of Banquet Hotel, this city were
tried in city court this morning,
charged with keeping liquors without
license. They were found guilty and
fined $500 and costs each.

BOLT ENTERED BARN.

Middlesex. July 13. During the se-
we're thunder shower which passed
over this village last evening lightning
struck the barn of George A. Warren,
within which Mr.. Warren and two
hired men were at the time milking.
The pail which Mr.. Warren was hold
ing was knocked to the floor, win.
dow was entirely smashed out and the
door to the stable ripped down. The
bolt then passed through the floor and
entered the ground in the cellar be,
low. No fire resulted and no damage
done aside from that mentioned. Mr..
Warren was but slightly affected from
the shock and will be all right in
few days.

FELONIOUS ASSA ULT.

Harry Gilbert, of this city, was ar
rested late Monday afternoon by Mar
tin Mcmahon, chief of police, on the
charge of assault with intent to COM
NIT rape upon Mrs. Abbie Hathaway.
Gilbert is Jumper but was found
working in bayfield, in Berlin. This
forenoon he was in city court, waived
examination on the charge, and was
bound over to await the action of the
grand jury. Bail was fixed at $500
but was not furnished, so the prisoner
was remsnded to Jail.
Mrs. Hathaway on Monday entered
the complaint with the police upon
which this prosecution was founded.
She lives in the Swasey building on
Court street. She asserts that about
half-past two O'Clock, Sunday morn
ing, she was asleep in her room which
has windows opening on the piazza,
when she was awakened by man en-
tering the room through the window.
There ensued, according to her story,
improper proposals, followed by an
attempt to assault her when the in
truders advances were not complied
with. There was then something of
a struggle in which her wrists were
lacerated. and noise made which
frightened the assailan5 away. Be-
fore he left, Mrs. Hathaway says he
threatened to kill her, telling her that
he would return, Wednesday evening,
and shoot her. The man wore a hand
kerchief tied about his face just below
the eyes, but she is certain that Gill
bert is the person. She says that on
one occasion previously he had stopped
her on the street and made improper
proposals to her.
Mrs. Hathawsy's son, OF about ten
years of age, was in the same bed and
lie tells story of the affair corre-
spending to that of his mother. Mrs.
Hathaway is still young woman but
is obliged to walk on crutohes. Gill
bert is twenty-five years old, wears
glasses, and is quite short. He had
no counsel in court this morning
