New Telephone officers.

At a special meeting OF the stock
holders of the Citizens Telephone and
Telegraph Exchange Wednesday the
vacancies in the offices caused by the
death of George w. Buzzell were filed.
Elisha B. Seeley of Boston was elected
president and manager to succeed Mr.
Buzzell and Mr.. Buzzells daughter, Mrs.
Lena Owen, is the new secretary and
treasurer. The latter has been in the
office all the years that Mr.. Buzzell was
at the head of the company and is
thoroughly conversant, with all the de
tails of the business. Mr.. Seeley' has
been identified with the independent
telephone industry since the field was
first opened and is we'll known by all
independent men through New England.
He will retain his residence in Boston
and visit this section when the interests
of the company demand. He has been
for years close friend of Mr.. Buzzells
and because of his intimate knowledge
of the past development as well as plans
for the future, combined with practical
experience, it may be expected that no
interruption to the established methods
Will be made.

A well-Conducted Savings Bank.

The Mortified News comments on the
success attained by the Hyde Park
Savings Bank in the following very
complimentary language:
The assets of the Lamoille County
Savings Bank and Trust Co., of Hyde
Park have passed the million dollar
mark, as already noted in these columns.
President c. S. Page is receiving the
hearty congratulations of the press and
MANY people upon its Succession this is
one of the pet enterprises OF Vermont's
genial Ex-Governor.
1t must be conceded also that Mr..
Page has succeeded as well in the bank
ing line as in other directions in which
he has won the reputation OF being one
of Vermont's most successful business
men. 1t may also be noted that no man
in the world believes more thoroughly
in the judicious use of printers ink than
Mr.. Page and advertising has been a
factor in the upbuilding OF this bank.
Mr.. Page has conducted his bank on
original lines for his motto has always
been. vermont money for Vermonters to
foster Vermont industries and develop
Vermont enterprises"
1t has been Mr.. Pages boast that not
a dollar of this banks money was ever
loaned outside of Vermont, and while no
other banking institution in the state
accepted such proposition for itself for
years, the happy tendency OF late among
many of the financial institutions has
been to seek home investments. The
Hyde Park bank pays four per cent.
interest. Congratulations to President
Page upon the success that his bank has
attained under his years of good man
agement

les not to be found in the neighborhood of Washington's old home are the books which belonged to the first gentleman of America. Nearly the whole of the origl- nal Washington library is now In the Boston Athenaeum, which institution also owns the Stuart portraits of George and Martha Washington, painted from life in the year 1T95.
 The prominent men and women wbo have interested themselves In the project to have the national government acqu!re practically all of the existent mementoes of the Father of His Country are hopeful that in time there may be turned over to the National Museum the relies now in the possession of Mrs. Beverly Kennon, granddaughter of Martha Washing ton and the oldest living descendant of the life partner of the most famous American. Mrs. Kennons home, Tudor Place, located fin old Georgetown, D. C., now part of Washington city, Is filled with historic souvenirs of note, many of which were formerly owned by the occu- pants of Mount Vernon.
 The Washington silver plate Is even rarer than the china because there was less of it originally but Mrs. Kennon has goodly representation of this tableware, all emblazoned with the Washington crest. She has numerous specimens of all the china service used in General Washington's household and mention of which has been made earlier in the artl- cle in connection with the Lee collection and the relics already in the possession of the government The Kennon coIlec-
 
 tray, similar to that owned by Miss Lee. Then there are half a dozen spiral can. dlestlcks and mural candelabra mounted in front of oval mirrors. Finally, Mrs. Kennon has Martha Washington's writing table and several autograph letters penned by General and Mrs. Washing. ton, as well as an unequaled collection of miniatures of the various members of the Washington family.
 If, as now seems probable, the National Museum is to- in time, become the per- manent depository of all the most inter. esting reminders of the greatest Amerl- can, 1t is indeed matter for congratula- ton that this institution is shortly to have new home calculated to enable the effectual safeguarding of all such treas. ures. For two years now workmen have been busy erecting the great granite structure of classic design that Is to house the vast collections of this lmpor- tant educational institution. Three years more will be required to finish this mon. ster edifice, which will cost when conl- pleted fully $3,50o GOO and will rank next to the United States Capitol as the larg- est of our public buildings
 The new structure-the largest museum building In the worlds 562 feet in length and 360 feet in width, exclusive of projections. The floor space will aggre- gate 10 acres and more than half of this will be devoted to exhibition purposes The Washington relics have the place of honor in the present museum, and 1t Is expected that corresponding prominence will be given to them in the new struc- ture. It is obviously important that the glass cases containing the Washington relics shall be so placed that they can ever be under the watchful eyes of armed guards. WALDON FAWCETT.

from which Mrs. Washington read to

from which Mrs. Washington read to him almost up to the minute of his death In almost every room are chairs or other articles of furniture which belonged to Washington, and such personal relics as his spectacles reading glass, dressing case, holsters, ink stand. silver snufrers, etc.
 In the quaint old town of Alexandria, the community nearest to Mount Vernon, is supplemental collection of Wash ington relics which are usually spoken of In conjunction with those at the manor house. Here in Alexandria is the Wash ington Masonic Lodge, where the Father of His Country presided as worshipful master, and there Is shown to visitors the chair in which he sat when presid- ing at lodge meetings and the apron and collar made for him by the Nuns of Nantes. Here also may be seen the cherry wood clock which was ticking away the minutes in Washington's bed room on the night he died and which, ns the great man breathed his last was reverentially stopped by pr. Dick with the hands registering 21 minutes past 10, the hour they have ever since recorded.
 It will be seen from the above resume that almost all the important relics of George Washington have gradually been gathered together in the city to which he gave his name or in the territory within dozen miles of the seat of gov ernment. Almost the only important rel
