Madame Nordica was born in Farm
ington, Maine, and is at the present
time near sixty years of age. She
was one of family of six children,
and early in life conceived the idea
that she could become a great singer
if she was to apply herself to the
task with might and main, which she
did, and the. result is we'll known
from the street gamin of any city IN
the world to the crowned heads and
rulers of every nation on earth. Mad
anne Nordica's maiden name was Lii
liam Norton. Madame Nordica recent
ly passed through Honolulu and gave
two concerts that were fully attended
and appreciated.
Madame Nordica sailed from here
for a tour OF Australia, and in pass
ing from Australia to Tasmania she
was among those that suffered ship
wreck through the laundering Of the
Tasman, catching a severe cold dur
ing the exposure to the elements,
which developed into pneumonia, and
has been in a precarious condition
since. ~&r

EDWIN EUGENE HOWE.
Prominent South Deerfeld Merchant
was Native of West Dover

Edwin Eugene Howe, 50, prominent

at $50 clock Of heart failure Mr..
Howe had been as well as usual and
spent the weekend in Rumford, Il. l.,
returning home Monday afternoon. Mrs.
Howe was awakened about 5.25 eloc !,
yesterday by peculiar sound and
noticed Mr.. Howe was breathing
strangely. He died in about FIVE min
utes, before the doctor arrived
Mr.. Howe was born in West Dover
in October, 1913, and was one of II
children of Liberty and Maria Bah
cock Howe. His school days were
spent in his home town. In 1879 be
went to South Deerfeld and begar
work as a clerk in the store of Til
/ ton & Howe. Later he clerked i'm IIins
dale in the store of his brother. Gard

Respectfully,
r. +. BROWN,
Attorney General
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1914-06-05

Section III. The auditor of ac-
counts shall draw his order in pay
ment for the services and expenses
of persons employed by the attorney
general under the preceding section,
which account shall be first approx
ed by the attorney general.
Thus it appears that prior to January
l3, 1909, the attorney general had no
authority to employ what is now re-
ferred to as detective service =
December l, 1908, practically a
month and a half before this act took
effect, Hon, John G. Sargent succeed
Mr.. Fits as attorney general and held
the office to December /, 1912 The
experience of the first year and a half
of his service seems to have convinced
Mr. Sargent of the wisdom of the act
above referred to, and further that the
authority therin conferred upon the
attorney general ought to be enlarged.
Accordingly, in his report to the gen.
eral assembly in 1910, Mr.. Sargent, re
ferring to the authority conferred upon
the attorney general and the duty inn
posed upon him by the act Of 1905
said:
tThis provision has made a great
deal of work and the authority so
| conferred has been exercised free
!! ~, and with good results.
In the same report Mr. Sargent re-
commended among other things that
the authority conferred by the act Of
1908 be enlarged by giving the attor-
| ney general authority to secure evi-
| denee in any matter in which the state
is interested and authority to employ
| legal service in any cause when in his
| judgment the interest of the state re
| quired it.
1t seems apparent that the recon-
mendations of Mr.. Sargent resulted in
a joint resolution which is No. 475 OF
the Acts of 1910, which is still in force
and reads as follows:
Resolved by the Senate and
House of Representatives.
In the investigation of aud prepa
ration TO or trial before any court
or tribunal of any cause or matter
in which the state is a party, or i
interested, the attorney general ma,
employ such persons as in his judg
ment the public good requires t
search out, procure and prepare evi
denee and the auditor of account
shall draw orders in payment there
for.
