Death of Well.Known Irish Resident
After Brief Illness With Pneumonia.

Matthias Sullivan, 81, one Of the

after n brief illness lie was taken III
with a severe cold last week Tuesday
but did not take to his bed until the

in County Kerry, Ireland, one OF 10
children Of Michael and Mary sullivan
He came to this country when a young
man about 20 years old and was EN-,
ployed for a time in Lawrence and
Lowell. Mass, also working for short
intervals in the vicinity of Baltimore
and Washington. lie had made three
trips TO the Pacific coast, two of them
mining expeditions during which he
visited different portions of California,
Nevada and other western states ana
had many thrilling experiences. Mr.
Sullivan married Mary Brosnahan IN
Lawrence in 1871 and had lived IN
Brattleboro practically all Of the time
since. being employed as laborer for
the town, village and various individ.
nails, He is survived by widow and
seven children: Johanna and Marga'
ret Sullivan of Springfield, Mass, Mrs.
Charles Cook, Catherine, Elizabeth,
Timothy and James Sullivan of Brat
tleboro. lie also leaves two sisters
and one brother in ireland, brother

ago. ~
Funeral services were held in st.
Michael s Roman Catholic church We'd
nesdav morning at S O'Clock, Rev. M.
J. Carmody officiating at the high re-
ouicm mass and giving brief eulogy
on Mr.. Sullivan s character. The ser
vices were largely attended and
there were many floral offerings.
The bearers were Patrick Brosnahan,
John Devine, Luke Ferriter, William
Martin, Job Long and Patrick Fen
ton. Among the out.of town people
were Miss Johanna Brosnahan and

"Big Mat" Sullivan, as he was ia
miliarly known. was an unusual charac-
ter. Rough in appearance, outspoken
in speech and strong in his opinions,
he possessed withal disposition hav-
ing far more than the average portion
of kindness, thoughtfulness and gener.
osity. Few people knew of the great
amount of good he did for those less
fortunate than himself because his
charity was done with entire lack of
ostentation. Mr.. Sullivan was always
cheerful, and his ready wit and fund
of "reminiscences made him the jolliest
of companions. He possessed great
fondness for children and never neg
lected an opportunity to do something
for their happiness Deep loyalty to
his employers and untiring industry
marked his career as a laborer, and
his devotion to his family was unceas-
ing. The willingness and cheerfulness
with which he met death were charac-
teristic Of the courageous qualities
which he showed through life.

Col. James +. Morehead, OF Green's
boro.
Spain has little to attract n much
to repel travellers. Outside Of its
historical associations and a few rem
nants of Moorish architecture. there
is but little of interest in the country.
It's scenery is far below that OF other
lands. Its climate is no good. The
railroad service is abominable. Go
where you please you must start in the
night and get there in the night.
There is no heat In the cars except
hot water under your feet i'm the first
class cars. and you cannot keep warm.
Every time the engine whistles some
fool raises a window to look out and
lets in the cold air. There is no heat
in any depot. Nearly all the large
cities are on branch lines and close
connection never dreamed Of. The
engines have no bells on them and
the station agent. at most places. give
notice to start by rafting a COW bell.
ut the most serious objection is
the exorbitant prices demanded by
stores and hotels. | am not sur
prised that the people are poor; ] am
surprised at their living at all. The
necessaries of life are exceedingly
dear. Those with whom a traveller
must deal are very greedy. ON him
they delight to prey. The only differ
ence in their method and that of the
highwayman is. they allow you the
privilege Of consenting to the robbery.
At first class hotels here rates are
$3.50 and up and no heat in the room.
There is not a hotel in Spain that has
in the guest rooms q fireplace, a stoyc
or steam heat In their Offices they
have brasiers with hot ashes or Goals
in them. Madrid is 2.130 feet above
the sea, and | dare say it Is as cold
here now as it is in Vermont or North
Dakota. These frosty mornings it is
cold enough to freeze off the tail of q
brass mOnkey-and | have no fire.

stocks and Bonds.

New York. Feb. 16-Speculative
sentiment was indistinctly outlined in
the movement of today'S stock market.
1t was in the last fifteen minutes that
prices moved deciSiVely upwards to the
high level at which the market closed.
Up to that time the drift was slug
gish and uncertain. The only active
operations were in Anaconda. which
exceeded yesterdays new record level
by Id. but closed about unchanged
from last night. The cross currents in
the banking operations of the week
We're so confusing that nc clear con-
ceptiOn had been formed of what the
changes in the statement Of condition
would show. h Improvement in the
surplus item was accepted as removing
might be cncroached upon, and some
buying by raiders followed on this ac-
count. The situation in the money
market is a good deal mixed. The eff
feet of the government Withdrawals
of deposits from the national banks
will be thrown over into next weeks
bank statement. The time money
market. while nominal on saturday..
was reported stronger and money
brokers' expect higher rates e. week.
on the other hand sterling
was weak, and there was increased
confidence that gold will be secured in
London for New York next week. The
market did not show any Immediate
eSpOnS to the news of placing broad
of $29, 900. 900 of New Haven deben-
ture bonds. except that the weakness
in the foreign exchange market was
attributed to an expectation that re-
m%ittanceS to New York would follow
on account of these subscriptions. The
transaction was regarded, however. as
an important indication of an improv-
ing feeling toward high-grade Ameri-
can securities on the part of foreigners.
Success is reported also in the offer

notes by various corporations. The re-
