F. a. Goss Dead.

Franklin Allen Goss, for many ySsrs
prominent citizen of Vergennes, Died
Friday, Aug. ~, at Troy, N. Y. Al
though he had been in poor health for
the past two years from neurasthenia,
resultant from previous attack of
typhoid fever, the end came very unex-
pectedly. Mr.. Goss was born in Water
bury, Jan. /, 1850. He was the son of
Benjamin F. and Mary I. Goss, both
staunch New Englanders, their families
dating back to colonial times. Five gem
erations since a grandfather, afterward
captain under Gen. Stark, was present at
the battle of Bunker Hill. Mr. Goss's
boyhood life was passed in the towns of
Waterbury and Brandon. His college
preparation was made at Norwich Uni
versity, Highland Military school at
Worcester and Phillips Academy, An
dover, Mass. Entering Amherst college
in the class of 1871 and being unable to
complete his course at that time the
college honored him in 1902 with the
degree bachelor of arts entirely without
his solicitation. After leaving Amherst
Mr.. Goss was engaged in business in
Boston, but not long after came to YER
gennes owing to the illness of his father
After the death of his father in 1879 Mr.
Goss became interested in the manufac-
ture of kaolin. He was also one of the
promoters and original stockholders of
the Nergennes Electric company, and
was also vice-president and director of
the Nergennes National bank. a strong
republican, although not ambitious as to
office. In fraternity life he was especially
prominent, being a member of the Chi
/ Psi society at Amherst, and in Vergennes
a member of Dorchester Lodge F. and
\. NJ, No. l, Jerusalem Chapter, No. .,
Vergennes Council. No. ., and of Mount
| Calvary COmmandery, Knights Templar,
and a Noble of the Mystic Shrine For
many years Mr.. Goss had been on the
prudential board of the Nergennes graded
school in which capacity he rendered
most excellent and efficient aid. In June
1873, he married Mis- Ruth G. Keller,
daughter of the late Charles ID. Keller of
/ Nergtnnes. 1t was IN the home life that
Mr.. Goss revealed his true character and
found his greatest happiness. For more
than 30 years Mr.. GOss has been al
active member of the Congregations
Church of Nergennes and during nearly
the entire period the direction of the
musical service had devolved upon him
The loss of such man as Mr. GosS vii
be sincerely mOurned by many sincere
friends and acquaintance in Nergenne'
and throughout the state for his genia
manner, his warm heart and attractive
personality. endeared him to all viii
whom he came in contact. while hi!
scholarly endowments rendered him {
most valuable factor in the intellectual
and educational life of Nergennes. Mr.
Goss is survived by his wife and fly,
children. Mary E., wife of II. l. Bacoi
of St. Johnsbury, and Ruth, wife of j

Dr.. B. /. Fisk Dead.

DIR. B. l.. Fisk of Bridport, who took
carboic acid and then shot himself with
a revolver Friday evening at the home of
Mrs. William Merrill, died before medical
aid could reach him.
The story of the sad affair is as follows:
DR.. Fisk, wife ana child were stopping
with Mrs. William Merrill, where he
formerly had a room, Friday evening
he and his family were in their room
upstairs. He was lying on the bed with
their little child about year and a half
old, then he asked his wife to 20 down
stairs and get him drink of water. AS
she left the room it appears he went to
the stand on which stood bottle of car
bolic acid, drank from it and then
throwing himself on the bed by the side
of his little child shot himself with the
revolver. On the arrival of Drs Willard
and Phelps of Nergennes, who had been
hastily summoned, AN examination
showed he had been dead about ten
minutes and also disclosed the fact that
the bullet had clipped the apex of the
heart.
That the act was premeditated is evil
denced from memorandum bearing
date of August -, which was found in
his diary naming the men he wished to
be appointed administrator and commits
sioners to settle his estate. DR.. Fisk was
native of Schroon, n. Y, and was
graduate of Baltimore, Md, medical
college. He leaves a wife and one
child.
The funeral was held at the home of
Mrs. William Merrill. West Addison

Railroad Officials of New Haven Road s
 Connecting Lines.
 When the large party of rairoad of ficials of the New Haven's connecting lines, who yesterday began tour of the system as the guests of the road, arrive here at noon to-day they will be given a trolley ride around the city that they may get better idea of what an enterprising New England city, with it's large manufacturing interests, real ly looks like. Few of the visiting rail- road men have ever. been in New Eng land, and perhaps none of them ever has set foot on Connecticut soil. Hence the large manufactures here will ap- peal more to them than to one who is accustomed to hear the busy grind of machinery wherever he goes. There are about twenty-five executive officers of such roads as the Pennsylvania, New York Central, Jersey Central, Le- high Valley, Big Four etc., in the par ty. They will arrive here at 1:05 p. m. to-day, and special trolley car will be in readiness to take them over the lines in the factory districts. They will spend an hour here and will resume their trip at 2 p. m., going to Spring field.

 l Work on the trolley line in North
 Haven is progressing finely, and at the
 rate they are now rushing matters the

WONDERFUL CURE
 OF SORE HANDS By cuticura After the M ost Awful Suffering
 Ever Experienced.
EIGHT DOCTORS
And Many Remedies Failed to do a Cents Worth
 of Good.


 About five years ago was troubled with sore hands, 50 sore that when 1 would put them in water the pain would very nearly set me crazy, the skin would peel of and the, flesh would get hard and break. There would be blood flow ing from at least fifty places on each hand. Words could never tell the suf- fering endured for three years. tried everything that I was told to use for fully three years, but could get no relief. I tried at least eight different doctors, but none of them seemed to do me any good, as my hands were as bad when I got through doctoring as when l first began. also tried many reme- dies, but none of them ever did me one cents worth of good. l was discour- aged and heart-sore. would feel so bad mornings when got up, to think had to go to work and stand the pain for ten hours, and l often felt like giv- ing up my position. Before I started to work mornings would have to wrap every finger up separately, so as to try and keep them soft and then wear gloves over the, rags to keep the grease from getting on my work. At night I would have to, wear gloves in bed. In fact, had to wear gloves all the time. But thanks to Cuticura, the greatest of all great skin cures. After doctoring for three years, and spending much money, Q 50c. box of Cuticura Ointment ended all my suffer ings. It's been two years since I used any and I don't know what sore hands are now, and never lost days work while using Cuticura Ointment"
