A talk on the penny savings stamp
system, by Mrs. John B. Chase OF Lyndon
was prefaced by few remarks on the
work of the committee by Mrs. ]. W.
Sault. Mrs. Chase gave very clear
idea of the workings of the system, its
aims, its origin, and the result OF the
work along this line in many places. It
has influenced children to save their
pennies in many cases, to the great bene-
fit OF families where such savings have
been a material help. Children have
thus assisted in buying their own clothes,
and in one instance they helped to pay
the interest on a mortgage on their
home. 1t diminisbes the spending OF
small amounts for candy, gum, cigar
cites, and other things useless and
harmful to health, and strengthens the
will power, and consequently the char
acter.
Mrs. c. H. Merrill gave few facts In
relation to preserving our forests, the
important part played by them, and the
dire results following their destruction.
She proved by her presentation OF these
facts that private aid as well as public
welfare depends upon the stopping OF
ignorant destruction of our forests; that
we should all arouse interest in plant
ing trees and use our influence as far as
possible with farmers and owners to see
to their growth.
These announcements were made by
the president: Mrs. Helen c. Thompson
has been appointed director to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation OF
Mrs. Kate E. B. Ide. The following new
names were added to the membership
Mrs. Hubert W. Brooks, Mrs. Frank H.
Taylor, Mrs. Luther S. Jewett, Mrs. P. E.
Stone, Mrs. ]. R. Somerville, Mrs. George
A. Wilson, Miss Annie Carr. Miss Fan
ME E. Russell has been appointed Gus
todian, with Mrs. c. E. Kirk and Miss
Fannie M. Parkhurst, assistants. Mrs.
E. H. Ross, Mrs. c. 81. Stevens and Miss
Caroline S. Woodruff constitute the
calendar committee. The school library
committee consists of Mrs. E. S. Truax,
Mrs. c. q. Merrill and Mrs. A. F.
Stone. The July meeting will be lawn

Passumpslc Burglar Caught.

Frank Provencha. the man who
robbed the post Office at Passumpsic and
stole the mileages from the Boston &
Maine depot, was arrested at Westmore
yesterday morning by Deputy Sheriff H.
D. Stannard of Barton Landing and
brought to the sounty jail here on the
afternoon train. The man had been
shadowed by the officers ever since the
burglary and after he found employment
in the quarries at Bloomington school
teacher informed the officers OF his where
abouts.
After being brought to St. Johnsbury
Deputy Sheriff Worthen took him up
one of the roads towards North Danville
and he informed the officer where he
had thrown the mileages. A bunch Of
seven new mileages were found by the
roadside, together with the rubber strap
! which held them, the, latter having
dropped off as the books were thrown
away. He still carried in his pockets
the books of stamps he had stolen from
the office, but had spent all the money.
Provencha will be brought before the
grand jury unless the government takes
up the case in the federal court. The
government had offered $100 for his
arrest on account of breaking into the
post Office, and a reward of $50 was
offered before that for his desertion from
the navy while the feet was cruising off
the Rhode Island coast.

WOnAN'S CLUB.
An Interesting Presentation of State
Federation Matters.

An Interesting Presentation OF state
Federation Matters.
The June meeting OF the Woman's Club
was entirely given up to the interests of
the State Federation, which was espec-
tally appropriate in this club, as the
Federation was organized in the same
rooms where this meeting was held, on
March &c, 1896. Mrs. P. F. Hazen
spoke very interestingly on the Fedora
ton, with the intention of giving a
clearer idea than many had of the work
and aims of that organization. She
spoke OF the places in which its meetings
had been held, its presidents, the famous
speakers who had been heard at its
meetings, the great interest in every way
that all clubs should take in its work,
and the hearty support needed from them.
She spoke briefly of the work of the nine
standing committees, and in closing
quoted from Mrs. Torrey OF Waterbury
very concise statement of the aim OF
the Federation, which Is that through it
small towrs may reap the benefit Of inter-
course with broader minds, and she
expressed the hope that all clubs would
help in furthering the work.
Mrs. II. F. Balch, chairman OF the reci-
procity bureau, spoke on the work done
in this department, the central idea of
which is so far as possible to create
among the clubs feeling of helpfulness.
This bureau collects papers of special
merit and sends them upon request to
the state clubs, their manuscript library
containing between 60 and 70 papers.
Small clubs make more use of these pa.
pers than the larger clubs, although
there is an increasing demand for them
from all the clubs. The bureau also
gives advice regarding club work; and
the work of the current events COM
mittee, which was so successfully carried
on the past year by the st. Johnsbury
club, is being extended through this bu-
reau.
Mrs. A. B. Noyes spoke in the interest
ofthe Consumers League, whose special
work just now in conformity with the
national society is in the interest Of pure
food, in addition to their original work
and their interest in the child labor laws
The League not only want to interest
every one in the necessity of a state pure
food law, but national law is necessary
to protect the entire country. She spok'
of the pamphlets issued by the state lab
oratory which contain much interesting
| information and which arr free for tn
asking.
Mrs. c. H. Dempsey gave very in
structive talk on civil service, comparing
the former or spoils system with tn
present civil service reform, impressint
| her hearers with the Importance of tn
fitness OF officials for their Offices, whicl
comes with the necessary examination
under the present system, while unde
the spoils system the best politician
were driven out by those in Office re
warding whoever had helped them il
securing their election, however unftte'
they might be. Women's clubs cal
further this work by devoting at leas
one meeting each year to the subject, ant
can arouse general interest by taking in
dividual interest in it.
A very pleasant feature of the after
moons program was piano solo b.
