Sheldon M. Stowe, former business
man here, died at the home of his SON.
in-law, w. M. Hughes, at Rocky Dale
in Bristol early Sunday morning after a
long and painful sickness. Mr.. Stow
was born in Weybridge December 25,
1888, and was the youngest son of Jason
and Sophia Sheldon Stow and the last
of his family. His oldest brother,
AFRO Stow, died in lWeybridge October
Z of this month. He had been a men,
Der of Union lodge, No. 2, F. and A.
M, of this village for over 40 years
and was highly respected. For some
years he has made his home with his
son-in-law in Bristol. He is survived

Fruit Store BurgIarized.

Early on Tuesday morning burglars
gained an entrance to the fruit store of
Joseph Calvi in the Register building on
Main street The cash register was
forced open and 50 was taken there
from. and about 50 was taken from a
box in the rear of the store. The work
was evidently that of someone familiar
with the establishment Entrance was
gained by throwing a stone through the
glass window in the front door, the stone
being found in the store. The burglars
then removed the shattered glass and
carefully piled it on the stone sill. 1t is
the belief that the burglary had been
carefully planned as the electric light
globe had been removed from the fix
lures thus leaving the store in darkness.
The police were at once notified with the
result that two persons were arrested in
Vergennes on suspicion of being impli-
Gated in the breaking in of four business
places in that city Tuesday night and Sc
curing considerable booty. 1t is thought
likely that these are the same two that
broke into the Calvi store.

Girls Narrow Escape.

Miss Jennie Shackett, daughter of
Paul Shackett, of Weybridge narrowly
escaped serious injury Monday morning.
Miss Shackett arrived in town on the
mail train from York Beach, Me-,
where she had been employed at a
summer hotel during the season. 1t
seems that when near the Cobb eros
sing she stopped for a few moments
and did not realize how near she was to
the track. She was struck by the
cylinder of the engine on her left arm
and thrown against the wall of the
Cobb house She was carried into the
home of j. B. Cobb and her injuries
attended. 1t was found that she was
not seriously hurt and later taken to hel
home in Weybridge. -

HEARING ON MlDOlEBURY
BILL.
House. and Senate Comm ittee S
Listen to State ments in Be-
half of College.

On Tuesday evening in the large
cloak room of the House of Representa-
tives at Montpelier the Committee on
Appropriations of both Senate and
House gave a hearing to the advocates
of the bill introduced in the House by
Representative Billings of Woodstock
to increase the appropriations to Mid
dlebury College by $1,000. Mr.. Amey
of Brighton, chairman of the House
Committee, presided. A large audience,
including over fifty members of the
Legislature beside the Committee, was
present. The speeches were earnest
and seemed to carry conviction to all
present.
claimed opposition to any other college,
stating his desire that all should pros
per and be given larger means to work
for the uplift of Vermont. He showed
conclusively that Middlebury college is
a proper recipient of State Aid, be-
cause of the value of her service to the
State, es pecially in the training of
teachers. He declared that Middlebury
is not decadent institution, having
more than doubled her attendance in
the last six years; and having increased
come. The college is not in debt, and
alumni, students and many friends have
recently shown enthusiastic loyalty.
He made an earnest plea for the type
of student who is Middlebury's special
ty, the boy who must secure an educa
tion largely by his own efforts. He set
forth the great good that has already
been accomplished by the Department
of Pedagogy, and showed how large
appropriation would enable the College
to be of much larger service to Yer
mont. In closing he declared that
nothing would be of greater help in
making Vermont more favorably known
than the strengthening of her colleges
and said that Vermont youths were
worthy of the best advantages that
could be given them,
Senator John w. Stewart was the
next speaker and he bore testimony to
the worth of the College and the high
grade of its present work. He was
followed by Judge John E. Weeks,
who testified that, although not col
lege man, he had long felt that Middle
bury College did good work. Repres-
entative Joseph Battell of Middlebury
stirred applause by his announcement
that it was his intention to enable the
College to establish school of forestry
by a large donation of forest land to be
preserved by the college as the founda-
ton for such school. Homer Z.
Skeels, secretary of the Senate, told
feelingly of the door of opportunity
Middlebury had held open to him.
Other graduates of the college who
were present were E. G. Hunt, SO, rep
resentative from New Haven, John X.
Williams 06, representative from
Peacham Robert w. McCuen, '02. rep
resentative from Vergennes and Frank
Warner, '83, representative from Corn
wall.
The hearing was an enthusiastic one,
and the bill will be given careful con-
sideration by the members of the APP
preparations Committee.

Special Agent A. l.. G. Atkinson is ex-
Pected to come with the next lot. The

News came yesterday to the effect that
Paul de b. -kerberg, the special agent
OF the Russian government, who came
here to investigate, had reported that
there was no foundation whatever for
the stories of his countrvmen, who
charged the immigration agents of Ha-
wall with disappearing conditions
here, and no foundation for the reports
that they had been mistreated But
this was expected. Investigations here
had thoroughly established the facts.
1t only seems to make the matter worse
as far as the Russians are concerned.
There might have been some excuse for
them and some hope for them if it had
proved true that they had been deceived
and had some real reason for their attI-
tude. But the more clearly it is proved
that they had absolutely no reason for
their actions the less desirable do they
appear.
The board of immigration is turning
attention to Portuguese territory again
now, aud may soon be attempting to re-
cruit Portuguese laborer immi grants.
No more Russians.

MAY MEAN MUCH.

The Atlantic City Boardwalk expert
ment Of the Hawaii Promotion Commit
tee Is being watched with special in
terest by those concerned with promo
ton work. 1t may be the beginning of
the scheme that will greatly change the
powers OF the committee and the scope
OF ITS work. Secretary Wood and LLOYD
Cmlds are working on a plan similar
to that carried out at the Seattle ex-
position. OF selling pineapples. 1t is
hoped that the scheme will be self
sustaining, and if it is the committee
will be placed in an independent posi-
ton as regards such work \ promo
ton scheme that pays for itself while
It works Is something new, but the ex-
perIence III Seattle led to hopes that it
could be had. Atlantic City is a tour
list resort and nothing else 1t is a
place where vast crowds of wealthy
and moderately well off Americans
spend vacations. The city lives by its
hotels and resorts. The possibilities of
reaching people with advertising mat
ter at Seattle were small compared to
those at Atlantic City, and if the pro
motion committee succeeds in estab-
fishing there a frst-class advertising
scheme that pays for itself, the achieve
meut will be very notable.

BREWERY IS FIRNTER.

Brewery stock, which is being
watched with much interest in connec
ton with the prohibition campaign,
showed some lively movements yester-
day. 1t has been dead at Il. but yes
terday 1880 was freely bid, and there
was a disposition to unload at that
figure. The buyers were game, and
25O shares went, in eight sales, at that
figure. When the session closed the
holders were asking 15.625. This is a
slight recovery from the tremendous
depression of the past few weeks, but
leaves the stock still far below its fig
ure of few months ago.

The Honokaa Sugar Company yester-

The sale of the land was made by auc-
ton at the capitol at noon by the de-

knocked down to the Honokaa Sugar

HLLO'S TURN COMING.

One Of the big events of the week,
following the completion of financial ar
rangements for the further extension
Of the HilO railway, was the running
of the first passenger train out of HlIo
toward Hamakua. In comment on the
news that the road is to be extended
Immediately as far as Paauilo, the Ha-
wall Herald says:
THE building of the HiIo railroad
to Paauilo means more to the city OF
Hilo than any one thing which could
happen. 1t was the natural result Of
the starting of the branch as far as
Hakalau. and will be followed by other
improvements which have already APP
peared in the distance during the recent
visit Of the superintendent of public
works The most important of these
is the building of a wharf at which the
American Hawaiian vessels can lie and
take sugar directly from electrically
driven conveyors When Marston Camp
bell mentioned the fact that there would
be a meeting held in this city in the
near future to decide on harbor lines.
there were few members of the board
of trade who appreciated what was
meant. To build a wharf such as will
be needed. harbor lines must be estab-
lished, and it is safe to predict that
within the next year start will be
made on a wharf and also on large
warehouses in which sugar shall be
stored while awaiting shipment.
1.-The important matter for HIo
commercially will be that from Lau-
pahoehoe to Glenwood every plantation
will turn to this city for supplies,
rather than Honolulu. Supplies can be
brought here as cheaply as TO Honolulu,
and not only can be handled here at
smaller expense. but with great say
ING in time. Through the fact that
Davies & Co. are heavily interested III
a number of the plantations on the
Hamakua coast. the HllO ralrOad IS al
ready assured of contracts which Will
mean yearly freight OF upward OF
-. 900 tons. Passenger traffic, while 1t
may not pay greatly. will help to swell
the receipts and Will assist Hllo tire
meudousIY. People from the outside
districts who have visited this city
once = year will make bimonthly trips.
When they reach here, they will 90 to
the moving picture shows, or theatrical
rarformauce-. if such are here. and Will
do all the little shopping which before
wa. done with Honolulu by mail, or
through some friend. The HiIo rail
road is masking IIiIo a city instead Or
fl town. and the beginning is only n
sight. the ultimate results can oniE 100
guessed at by the best Informed.
