FATALITY AT BRISTOL.

The terrible wind and rain storm
which prevailed in this section all day
Friday and a part of Saturday did on
siderable damage to property and
caused one fatality. Sidney B. Grant,
who resides on Bristol flats, about two
and one-half miles south Of Bristol vii
lage, was the victim. About six o'clock
he went out to his barn and failing to
return, his wife and son went looking
for him. About 8 o'clock he was found
dead under the ruins of a shed that had
been blown to pieces. A heavy beam
was lying across the mans body. One
of his shoulders was broken and he was
injured internally.
The wind was strongest about 6 80
on Bristol flats and several buildings
were blown down or unroofed. Ed
ward Clapper's new hen house was
lifted off it's foundation, carried fully
five rods and turned over. A shed on
Thomas Leonard's farm was demol-
ished. Several large trees were up
rooted.
A wagon loaded with trunks, coming
from Middlebury, was blown over near
Fred Smiths house, the driver was
obliged to leave the wagon as it was
impossible to get the outfit righted up.
On the New Haven road the ell of
Harrison Lufkin's house was badly
damaged and the milk house of G. H.
Russell was demolished.
In South Starksboro the wind was so
strong the teacher in the Jerusalem
school would not let the scholars start
for home and they remained in the
school house until 9 o'clock in the even
ing when the wind subsidized and rain be-
gan falling.
Telephone lines in all directions were
put out of commission. At the Bristol
central Office only a few lines were in
operation Saturday morning.
Mr.. Grant, who was killed, had re-
sided in Bristol the greater part of his
life. He is survived by a widow, two
sons, a daughter, and two brothers,
Judson Grant of Yonkers, N. Y. and
Irving Grant of West Rutland. He was
81 years of age, and was a member of
Libanus lodge of Masons.
| The funeral was held on Monday
afternoon from his late home on Bristol
Flats. Rev. George C. Chappell of
ficated. Libanus lodge, F. & A. NJ,
had charge of the services. Burial was
in Greenwood cemetery.

l R AT WOODSTOCK.

An early morning fire Monday de-
stroyed the main part of the house on
the Sarah M. Kidder place, in Wood
stock, and badly damaged the ell part.
Miss Clara Kidder, an old lady badly
crippled and obliged to keep her bed
most of the time, was the only occupant
of the house at the time. She smelled
the fire which is said to have caught in
the attic, land rang her dinner bell.
Soon the %neighbors came andhelped her
out and saved some of the things, but it
is said that the fire company was troub-
led at first with a deficiency of water
and could not save the house. 1t is not
known what caused the fire. There was
no electricity in the house, and Miss
Kidder was so crippled she was not able
to get up stairs, it is said. There is
about 5000 insurance on the house and
contents which will be mostly taken up
by a mortgage to the Savings bank.

KILLED THREE BEARS.

Glenn Hubbard, a 2~l-year-old boy,
who shot three bears on the mountain
between Rochester and Randolph last
Wednesday was in Mo tpelier on Satur-
day to visit Carol Stewart, a relative.
He was deer hunting on the mountain
when he saw an old bear and her three
cubs coming down the mountain side.
He hid in the bushes and sat on a log
until they approached. AS he stepped
out the ''old lady" stood erect to give
the alarm to flee and offered a good
mark for him. He shot her dead and
then he shot two of her cubs. The third
got away before he could reach him, or
he would have taken home the whole
family. The old bear weighed $50
pounds. He took them back to his home
we the mountain in his team. He has
received $50 bounty from the State for
killing the bears and has been offered
$50 for the skin of the old bear which is
in its prime.

A Lasting Window Polish.

There is an art in washing windows,
and if they are properly polished the
operation need not be repeated for n
long time. y really good polish will
survive several transforms and will
only require the dust to be removed
occasionally with a dry cloth. The in
side of the windows should be washed
with tepid water, without soap or pow
der Of any kind, rubbed dry with cha
mois and polished with cheesecloth. A
solution for cleaning the outside should
be made from one ounce of %pulveriZed
whiting, one ounce Of grain alcohol,
one of liquid ammonia and a pint of
water. Spray the window with clear
water to remove surface dirt, and ap-
ply the solution with a soft cloth. Let
this dry on. Afterward polish with
cheesecloth or tissue paper. If the
glass has been badly scratched a filling
may be applied. This consists of an
ounce of white wax dissolved in tur-
pentine. 1t should be applied before
the polishing.-Washington Star.

Speed of Waterfowl.

Waterfowl have great powers of
flight. The canvasback duck covers
from 1870 to 100 feet a second. The
blue winged teal and the green winged
teal, the bluebill and the redheads are
only u little slower. Mallards, pintails,
wood ducks, black ducks and others
can easily fly faster than a mile a min
ute. Even such large birds as cranes,
swans, pelicans and geese can fly at a
speed of more than 100 feet n second.
The speed of waterfowl has often
been measured with great accuracy.
Two men take positions on a duck pass
a measured distance apart. The first
man carries II stop watch and a gun,
the second n gun only. AS the fowl
pass the first blind the timer shoots in
order to brighten the birds into full
speed and starts his watch. AS the
ducks pass the second blind the man
there fires n shot. and the timer stops
his watch. The usual length of the
course is n quarter of a mile, although
a mile track" Is sometimes used

Questions.

There are many different kinds Of
questions, but, roughly speaking, they
all may be included in the following
three divisions; first, those which al
be answered; second, those which may
be answered; third, those which should
not be answered. Illustrating the first
division are those questions which 9TH
ers never ask of you and those which
you never are to hear others answer:
the second includes questions which
are pointed, private, public, p%erplexing
and political; in fact, any questions
which simpletons assert II be an

which should not be answered. includes

should not be asked.

they wish to know more; some ask
them because they desire to show what
they already know, and ONE ask them
because they want to show what others

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEALS.

An old mar with his coat collar

Cross Christmas Seal booths yesterday
and asked where the money realized
from the sale was to be spent. When
told the money would be spent to fight
tuberculosis, he remarked:
"Then III take 5 cents worth. /

HIRES Natures Own
Remedy for c.t.''A
Hyomei Relieves Catarrh Without the
Use of Dangerous Drugs.

Wv VI 1bhSNhONS DAh6S
Not until Hyomei was discovered has
it been possible to truthfully say that a
real remedy for catarrh was known.
Hyomei is an oil and its air is breathed
through a small inhaler furnished with
it for a few minute four times a day,
n during that time every particle of
this Hyomei-laden air taken into the
air passages and lungs is impregnated
with a powerful germ killing and health
giving antiseptic.
Sprays and lotions often cause disor-
ders of the respitory tracts or bring on
some other diseases and never make a
permanet cure of catarrh. But when
the air of Hyomei penetrates to the in
most air cells of the lungs and enters the
blood with the oxygen it not only kills
the germs in the throat and nose, but
kills the bacilli in the blood, freeing the
mucous membranes from poisonous mi
crobes and giving perfect health.
A complete outfit is inexpensive and
includes an inhaler, dropper and suffi-
cient Hyomei for several weeks treat
ment.
w. H. Sheldon had so much faith in
the merit of Hyomei that he agreed tC
return the money to any purchaser who
is not thoroughly satisfied.-adv.

Not suspecting danger because he
thought the safety guard on the weapon
was locked, Paul Nelson, aged 10. of
Mortified, idly watched a companion
fooling with the trigger of a rifle, the
muzzle of which rested underhis armpit,
while the boys were out on a hunting
expedition Saturday morning. The gun
went off, and that young Nelson is alive
is due to the fact that the muzzle hap
pened to be pointing at his shoulder
rather than at some vital part of his
body. AS it was the bullet tore a fur
row in his shoulder and the powder
burned the flesh considerably.
