Whereas. The people OF this state. as

pendence on the beneficent providence. of
Almighty God. and. the recurring year
having brought again the season of har-

custom of the fathers and to recognize
this divine favor by setting apart a day
for public expression OF gratitude and
praise.
Therefore. do appoint Thursday,
the t~enty-ninth day OF November cur
rent, a Day Of Thanksgiving for the
people OF this state
Vermont has abundant reason for
grateful rejoicing. strong and resolute
people have established here a state thar
has always stood for an intelligent lib
erty-loving, law-abiding citizenship, and
for that righteousness which alone exalt-
eth a commonwealth or a nation. Her
welfare and honor have been conserved
by the intelligence and honest purpose OF
her citizens. Her products of field mine
workshop, and factory have abounded
There are many evidences, also, of vir-
tues that strengthen and uplift society
patriotism, high moral courage, Justice
ana unselhsh devotion to the public good
For these blessings-the heritage of
the past, the advantage of the present
and the promise of the future-let us on
the day designated, in the church, in the
home, and in other fitting place render
our deep and reverent gratitude to the
Giver OF all good Let us be moved by
a spirit OF humility, generous fraternity.
and tender sympathy. Let us draw
closer and sweeten the ties of home and
family. And let us dedicate ourselves to
that living-public and private-which
VIII bring to the state and nation con-
unuance and an increase of enlighten-
ment' liberty and peace, and which viii
make for righteous character

Is the last of the famous actresses who
shone so brilliantly a generation ago in
classic and romantic tragedy. The pass
ing years have dealt most kindly with the
great Polish histrion. None OF the subtle
phases OF her art have been lost, her
strong' mobile face still portrays every
mood and thought of the character in
hand, each gesture is as effective and ms
graceful as ever and the keen intellect

hidden portions of a part. Modjeska's

words must flow quickly The woman
herself is marvel for none but one of
great physical and intellectual strength
can hope to assume the role of LADY
Macbeth, yet she does IL and does II
grancly, even as the afterglow of her
career grows brighter and more beauti-
ful. Her impersonation is still regal and

The sale of subscribers seats for the
Brattleboro presentation will open at the
box office next Monday evening, and the
regular sale on Tuesday morning. For
the role In which the great artist shall
appear subscribers may Indicate their
choice between Mary Stuart Lady Mae
beth and Camille. Since Lady Macbeth
VIII doubtless be the choice, It will be OF
interest to note that Modjeska's first
appearance In this role was in this coun-
try In 1883, with Edwin Booth as Macbeth.

Winter opened with unusual severity
Sunday when heavy sleety snow fell dur
ing the day and part OF the night, cover
Ing the ground to n depth varying from
four to five inches in the village TO a foot
or more on the hills. From the towns
to the north and west come reports OF sim
greater depths. There were Is or 20
inches in Wilmington and nearly two feet
In Dover. Everywhere the damp snow
loaded down frees and telephone wires
causing considerable damage. For sew
eral hours all communication with the
surrounding towns by telephone and tel
egraph were cut on and the local tele-
phone service suspended In places. Sew
eral of the rural lines were down either
from the breaking OF the poles or from
trees and branches falling upon them.
The street railroad company worked near
ly all night clearing the tracks OF snow
and fallen limbs. The electric light de-
partment had its share OF trouble and was
unable to get itself readjusted until Tues
day afternoon. Trees fell on the wire
between here and the power station i'm
Dummerston and the wire itself was
submerged in the water where 1t crossed
West river The wire which supplies light
to Hinsdale was also out OF commission
Two poles on High street gave way be-
meath their snowy burden, and three other
poles in various parts OF the town were
broken. Monday evening an attempt was
made TO supply the village with electric
ity from the local plant but even when
the motors which furnish power to the
local industries had been shut Off, only n
small number of lights were available
Shade trees generally were damaged Sc
verely. On the common, on the high
school campus, on the Retreat lawn and
in Esteyville large branches several
inches In diameter were split on

Womanly character she is the peer of
any. She was born i'm Cracow Poland

her farewell visit, TO be followed by re-

enjoyment Of private life. From the
warmly appreciative recognition given
her alike by press and people where she

she is still at the zenith of her powers.
