Death, Of W. NJ. Hoskins.

VIM M. Hoskins died at the resi-
dence of D. P. Thomas in this city last
night at 10 o'clock. Mr. Hosklns had
been in poor health for the past year OF
more and last summer he underwent
n critical operation in Salt Lake hos
pital After recovering from the ef-
fects of the operation, in company with
Mrs. Hoskins and little son, he went to
Southern California intending to re-
main for the winter in the hope that
the low altitude and mild climate Of
that section would benefit his health.
On the contrary. his constitution grad
ually weakened, and realizing that his
time on earth was short, he and his
family returned to Montpelier, arriving
Tuesday night. He was SO weakened
by the journey that the end came SOON
er than was expected and as Father
Time WAS about to close the records for
the year 1908, the spirit of Mr. Hoskins
peacefully took its fight TO that home
where death and sorrow never enter.
Mr.. Hoskins had been in business
in Montpelier for the past six years
and was recognized as one of the city's
substantial citizens. He was man
who attended strictly to bis own affairs
yet he was ready at all times to assist
in any movement having for its object
the advancement and upbuilding of the
city.
Besides his widow and son George
10 years old, he is survived by an aged
father who resides In Grand Island
Neb., a brother and two sisters a
Omaha, brother at Eureka, Wash.
and sister at Spirit Lake, Idaho.
The funeral will be held from tn
residence of D. p. Thomas Sunda,
