Its corridors and inspected It's office,
parlors and rooms. The landlords at this
lime were W. Bates Nichols, now Of
Dinuba, Cal, who has lately revisited Ran

The winter of SO appears to have been
OF the "open" variety, for boys were out
ON bicycles the first week OF January
and it was reported to be better wheeling
than sleighing. Still TO escape whatever
inelemency OF weather there may have
been in store for the rest of the winter,
W. b. Wall and IA nily and Mr.. and Mrs.
Willard Gay departed to Townsville,
Ca, at which resort they found Hale
Flint and family and Mrs. ADbie (Cady)
Colby from Chicago as well as MIR. ana
Mrs, QuIgley OF New York, who used to
be summer boarders at Frank Griswoldis.
A. j. Curtis was conducting q dancing

Death Of Or. Jeanette c. WEIGH.

For the second time death has claimed a
member OF the class OF nineteen, graduated
from the Randolph High school in 1855
and, loving always shining mark, has
taken from brilliant career OF usefulness
the noble spirit OF Jeanette 9. WEIGH.
A victim OF tubercular meningitis, she
passed away the morning OF Dec. 81 at the
U. b. A. hospital in Grand Rapids, Mich,
leaving two brothers and sister, l.. w.
WEIGH, Harvey j. WEIGH and Mrs. j. A.
Jarvis, all OF that city.
.'She had states a Grand Rapids paper,
sheen a resident OF the city only little
more than three years but in that time had
created for herself distinctive and i'm
portont place and had exerted a potent
influence upon the life Of the community.
"Dr. WEIGH was born in Canaan, N. H.,
thirty-nine years ago. She was graduate
of Wellesley college, also of the medical
school OF the Universe y OF Chicago. She
had a large practice in Grand Rapids and
was member of the medical staff OF the
U. b. A. hospital, of the Academy OF
Medicine and Of the Kent County Medical
society.
"She was one of the organizers OF the
University club and was interested in the
Bissell House and other charitable institu-
tons. She stood high in the professions
and had the good will and respect of the
entire medical fraternity.
at can truthfully be said OF DIR. WEIGH
that she went about doing good, respond
ing quickly to those who needed her
services without thought OF remuneration.
sHer last professional visit was made at
2 o'clock in the morning at the bedside OF
a poor woman. The doctor was ill at the
time, but, failing to find anyone to go in her
place, she responded herself to the call and
spent the remainder Of the night minister
ing to the sufferer. This was only one in
stance OF her devotion to her profession
and of her unselfish labor for the and OF
others. She had, too, among her patients
many poor girls for whom she cared either
gratuitously or for very smell remuner-
alton. She took her greatest pleasure in
ministering.
"She was a woman of big BRAN, ready
sympathy and strong soul-one who lived
and labored for the good of those with
HON she came in contact"
The funeral was held Wednesday, Jan. z,
from the home of her brother, Harvey j.
WEIGH, 269 Paris Ave-, Grand Rapids, and
interment was at Oak Hills cemetery.

church OF the Holy Innoeents, a new
parish IA Rutland. While in Randolph,
rather i4onergan had pastoral care also OF
the church Ia Windsor which he freed
from all debt and provided with one OF the
nnest reetorles in the state. AT White
River Junction, he found a dilapidated
church building and a debt OF almost
sooo. lie FIRST paid all indebteiness, se-
cured land Tor new edltiee, built the im-
posing brick and granite structure known
as the New st, Anthony's, aud erected a
large reetory, Later the cemetery OF six
teen acres was bought, aud land for q
church aud house was procured in North
Hartland, Within month the Hsnehett
estate was purchased. A bell weighing
1000 pounds, aud large pipe organ are
the latest additions. Father Lonergan
leaves all these, valued at $4,000, without
cent OF Indebtedness. "By his removal
to another parish says the White River
Junction Landmark, mot only does the
church Tor which he so zealonsly labored
lose a beloved pastor, but the village also
sustalns loss. As citizen he always
stood for what was right and best, and
was held in The highest esteem by all who
knew him." Father Lonergan will preach
his farewell sermon at the Junction next
Sunday.
The Cobleigh Library building, costing
~, 800 and the gilt TO Lyndonyille OF one
OF It's long-t time residents, Eber w. Cob
leigh, was dedicated Saturday, Dec. -,
with fitting exercises. Mrs. +. j. Blod-
gett, formerly Miss Constance Gerry of
Randolph, daughter OF the late Rev. Ell
bridge Gerry, made the speech OF accep-
lance and in IL demonstrated again that
keenness OF Intellect and power OF
thought which have always distinguished
her. In trenchant style she thus sums up
the present attitude TOW ard the learning
OF books;-"Not TO think. but to do has
become the slogan of the day, and the
whole trend OF our education, the very
curriculum OF our schools, shows the
effect OF the change. Our boys, once ex-
ereised in digging Greek roots, now dig
potatoes in school gardens, and the most
sought after degree, II any college con-
ferred Il, would be, not A. NJ or LII. d.,
but Z. III. b., Celebrated Half Back. Our
girls, whose education has always been a
pulling problem, since the days of the
Oldest daughter OF Eve, are now, in the
hope OF making them more practical,
struggling with scientific cookery, and the
composition OF infants foods Books are
out OF favor. and their place Is taken by
the saw and the plane, the broom and the
egg beater. Now this is an excellent
thing, no doubt, but let us not forget that
the pendulum may swing too far. In the
long run the world is going to be ruled by
the man who thinks, and manual training
and plain sewing alone, will never breed
race OF thinkers"

Sneak thieves are slipping into houses
in day time and purloining valuables.
Some one entered Mr.. r. l.. Benson's
house, or Lawrence street, few weeks
ago, and stole his wife's purse, contain
ing some money. Last week the same
house was entered, in day time, by
a velSet-footed thief, who carried off
Mrs w. 7 Potts pocketbook, contain
ing about ten dollars. Some rare old
coins were in the book. Two of the
lady clerks at McClure's store had their
purses, containing money, stolen. Mr.,
j. 9. Waters, who left his change of
clothing in a room a. Blacks shop
while he donned his working clothes,
had his pocketbook and about $500
stolen. Be on the lookout for the
sneaking slippery fellows and detect
them, if possible, that they may be
taught that honesty is the best pol,
icy" as well as right in principle.
1t will be good news to our citizens
to learn that Mr.. 7. A. Granting will
rebuild on the site where his residence
was burned last week by a stroke of
lightning. He hopes to get it under
way in few weeks aud completed by
the end of the year, Besides The heavy
loss sustained by Mr.. Granting and
family, Mr.. and Mrs Charles Granting
sustained heavy loss also, as they had
bought new furniture, ETC., which they
had stored away in his fathers house,
in an upper room, and all this, too, was
consumed in the flames. Mr.. Charley
Granting is building new house near
~ opposite his fathers place, and this
furniture was for the new home when
it is completed.
On next Sunday morning at Carriers
vile, at the Sam Jones tabernacle, there
will be memorial service at II o'clock

Rev. Sam Jones.
Miss Myrtle Foy, of Boston, Ga, and

sympathy in our trouble, we wish to
express to them our sincere thanks.
