One OF the Seasons Rest Attractions at the

WheI the immensely successful Web.
er & Fields musical comedy, "Hoity
Toity," opens at the opera house this
evening there will be many hearty
laughs, more chuckles aud still more
smiles; the eye will be pleased by a
wealth Of beautiful scenery, costumes
and stage effects and the ear by a
number of things in the music that can
be whistled, and when one leaves the
theatre whistliug, 1t bodies good for a
musical comedy.
"Hoity Toity" comes direct from
Weber & Fields own theatre on
Broadway where, for Did year 1t
was conceded by all to be the real
beauty show OF the town. The chorus
is composed not OF the ordinary Choir
us girls but girls who are able to play
parts and act.
II is frankly admitted that the plot
will not be strain upon ones intel
lect, but the hysterical comedy, tune
full music, dazzling beauty OF the fair
sex, together with the beautiful cos
tunes and scenery, will provide just
the kind Of an entertainment that low
ers of musical comedy admire and de-
sire. This present season will be the
last of ''Hoity Foity."

an accident just opposite the Soldiers
Home. A freight train OF about 30
cars which was pulling into the local
yard between and O'Clock broke
apart somewhere near the bridge over
the Roaring Branch. The fact that
the train was in two pieces was I'M
known to the engineer and when he
slowed down the cars still under his
control, the loose section banged into
the forward cars with a smash. One
Of the empty cars was crumbled like
an empty cigar box that has been

the ditch. Another car was badly
damaged ard the trucks were twisted
about in such shape that the line was
completely blocked.

made up here to carry the passengers
as far as the wreck where they walked

work Of a grasplng, soulless corpora.
ton comes from Pownal, where the
street railway company which is ex.
tending its line through that hitherto
peaceful village, not content with its
franchise for the use of the highways
for rail and post. must needs acquire
the trees along the way, even to the
magnificent elm in the center OF the
village, which has been the pride and
glory OF the inhabitants for genera
ton after generation.
The tall and stately tree standing on
the corner of the Methodist church
property, a landmark TO everyone en-
tering the village, was q stumbling
block in the path of progress, hence
its fate was sealed. nwas ever thus
The official board had meeting Sun

and grandson Leslie. The elder Mrs.
Miller's son was here to get the effects
of his wife and son and arrange about
the shipment of the bodies when the
body of his mother was brought in. He
was signing for the effects of the wife
and son when the police learned of the
recovery of the bodies Miller identl-
fed the body of his mother and almost
collapsed after crying out that he was
left alone In the world.

of some of the victims at the city hall

ment taken from one of the unidenti-
fed bodies. 1t was addressed to Will

unclaimed victims. The body is in
charge of Undertaken Thompson in

YESTERDAYS BUSINESS.
-Four Second Glass Postmaster Have Seats
In House.

Montpelier, Oct 30.-The principal
event OF the afternoon In the House
was the long deferred election contest,
In which the case OF Representative
Pelton OF Highgate was made test.
There was 4 good deal OF argument on
both sides, but the final vote was pretty
conclusive evidence that fourth.class
postmasters cannot hold their seat In
the House.
The chief measure OF importance
was the bill introduced by DIR J. A.
Mead OF Rutland. This bill provides
for the assembling OF the Huntington
fund, the United States de )osit fund,
and the $40, 900 claim money into a
permanent fund that shall be admin
istered by q special state school board
as a permanent fund. This embodies
the ideas set forth by the special con-
mission, headed by J. A. DeBoer Of
Montpelier, In regard to state inanc
