Gibson, il resident of Aberdeen. Two
sisters, Miss Christina Gibson and Mrs.
William Ross, and five brothers as fol-
ows also live in Aberdeen; George,
Adam, Harold and James Gibson
Mrs Even was affiliated with the
First Presbyterian church in Barre and

Former Clarendon Woman Arrested at
Claremont, N. H.

| Rutland, May 3.A woman, who was
formerly Miss Jennie Russell of Claren-
don, arrested at Claremont, n. H., by
Deputy Sheriff James Mcdonald of Bel
lows Falls, was brought TO Rutland yes
terday to answer to charge of bigamy
preferred by States Attorney b. L. Stat
ford. The officers in this county have
been looking for the woman for several
days. She came to Vermont after her
arrest without extradition papers, and
is locked up in the county Jail to await
hearing in the city court Monday morn
ing.
The woman's arrest is the outcome
OF the arrest OF Harry Smith of Pawlet
ON bigamy charge some time ago. The
present Mrs. Smith, formerly Minnie
Tucker Of Castleton. made complaint
70 States Attorney Stafford that she
lad discovered that Smith had another
wife, the Russell woman. His defense
is that he married Jennie RUSSELL but
soon found that she already had hus-
band and left her. supposing that his
marriage had been illegal and that he
was free to marry again If he wished.
The authorities have a bigamy case with
unusual features to untangle.

Thomas Burke Died To-day
from Injuries Sustained
Last Monday
FELL OUT OF WAGON,
AND STRUCK ON HEAD
Spinal Cord Was Injured
and Paralysis Devel-
oped Shortly

Thomas Burke of East Barre, a black
smith employed by the Sibson Quarry
Go, and brother OF Mayor James Il.
Burke of Burlington, died at 23O
O'Clock this morning at the City hospi-
tai where he was taken last Monday
morning after he had sustained injuries
N falling from wagon on Prospect
street. Death was due to an injury to
the spinal cord near the neck. which pro-
duced paralysis in the right arm and
lower limbs.
The man was driving along Prospect
street in the early forenoon with Joseph
Barra, neighbor, Of East Barre. Near
the bridge, Burke Suddenly became faint
and before his travelling companion could
save him, he fell on his face into the
street. Evidently his head struck a
stone, for there was slight abrasion
OF the scalp and the man lost conscious
ness. Physicians We're summoned and
on their advice Burke was removed to
the hospital. From the first his condi-
tion was considered serious. but when
paralysis began to develop, it was
thought to be only temporary and his
ultimate recovery was anticipated early
~ S'c hSth. llis. CUHuiJtOi ulu not improve
however, and as the days went BY it
became apparent that his condition was
most critical. Burke retained conscious
ness to the last and was able to talk
with the nurses at his bedside.
SO far as could be learned this FORE
noon, the dead man leaves an only
brother, the mayor of Burlington; wife,
who also lives in Burlington, and a sis
Ter residing in Montpelier The latter's
name could not be ascertained. Burke
was born in Williston forty-four years
lgo and came to East Barre early last
winter Until the accident he had fol-
owed his trade of blacksmithing.
The brother in Burlington was notified
4 Burke's death early this morning and
he remains were taken to the undertak-
ng rooms OF b. ". Hooker & Co. for
preparation for burial. At l;20 o'clock
he remains were taken over the Cen
raj Vermont road to Burlington. where
he funeral will probably be held to-
morrow.

Rosenburg, who is in the county jail,
where she is held in default Of $4,000

the climax Of sensational vice inves-
tigation in the course of which his name
was freely mentioned in connection with
resort known as the "Jonquil' operat-
ed by Mrs. Rosenburg.

ENDS ITS EXISTENCE.
Gentlemen's Driving Club Finds Condi-
tions Unfavorable to Racing

Al recent meeting, the Gentlemen's
4 Driving club, which has conducted many
successful race meet at the Granite
City park off Ayers street, decided TO
disband. Reports from the different Off
GERS were read and in view OF eircum-
stances which in late years have inter
fered with successful trottng meets, it
was decided to end the existence of the
club. The financial condition of the or
ganization was extremely satisfactory to
the directors, sizeable surplus having
been reported by the treasurer, John
Trow was the last president of the club.
and Alderman John +. Hoban its last
secretary.
When the land occupied by the trot-
ting park was purchased last summer by
the Barre Granite railroad for the os-
tensible purpose of converting it to rail-
road use, it was thought that races
would never again be held on the track
Latterly, too, the fences around the
park have fallen into bad state Of
repair, and although the present outlook
for a throbbng railroad center there is
not exceptionally bright, the expense of
putting the fence and buildings in con-
dition would be too prohibitive for a club
OF only nominal means to meet
All things considered il was therefore
decided to terminate the club as race
track organization. 1t had been in exist
ence many years and some fast meets
have been held at the park under its
auspices.
