Bennington Man Found Dead.

John d. McCue, aged 81 years, for
about % years a resident of Bennington,
died suddenly of apoplexy in the loft OF
his barn on Park street about o'clock
Tuesday afternoon. Mr. McCue for the
past few years had been retired from
business and did odd iobbng about his
home and the market conducted by his
SONS. Shortly after dinner on Tuesday.
he went to the barn TO feed the horse
and mounted into the loft to throw
down hay. The exertion of climbing the
stairs evidently affected his heart, for
at the top of the fight he fell forward
to the floor Of the loft and when found
by his son, Thomas, he had been dead
several minutes.
He was born in Ireland, coming to
America about AZ years ago. He spent
several years in Pennsylvania, as mining
engineers assistant, afterward coming
to North Adams, where he was employed
on the Hoosac tunnel. In North Adams
he married Miss Anna Mooney. Rnd
strange feature in connection with his
death is that he had exactly finished 43
years of married life, Wednesday being
his wedding anniversary. From North
Adams, he lived for a short time in Rut-
land, afterward going to Bennington.
He had been an orphan since six years
old and leaves no brothers or sisters.
He is survived by his wife and five chill
dren, Elizabeth and Sarah McCue, and
Thomas and James McCue, all
Of Bennington.

10000 VOICES
And Many Are the Voices of
Barre People

Thirty thousand voices-what
a grand chorus! And that's the
number of American men and
women who are publicly praising
Doan's Kidney Pills for relief
from backache, kidney and blad-
der ills. They say it to friends.
They tell it in the home papers.
Barre people are in this chorus.
Here's a Barre case:

Barre, says ''When | began TO have
trouble with my kidneys, / got Doan's

Rutland Fairs Plans.

The week beginning with Labor day
has again been chosen as the time for the
Rutland fair, it having been decided at
a meeting of the directors of the Rut-
land County Agricultural society held
Tuesday afternoon to have the 1916 fair
Sept. AS. No change will be made in the
price of admission.
OF chief interest Of the matters dis.
cussed at the busy session Tuesday aft
ernoon was the need and prospects for
new buildings this season. It is probable
that there will be erected model dairy
building for housing exhibits and an au-
tomobile showroom which may be two
stories high in order to give space for a
large dining hall. Conditions for the
past two years have been such that the
officials feel that there is great need of
adequate shelter for a big automobile
show because this branch of the fair is
growing yearly. 1t was suggested by
some of those present yesterday that the
dining hall be on the first floor and that
it be large enough to be used as a con-
vention hall outside of fair week. If the
dairy building is erected it win include a
place for testing cattle.
The first five officers were given au-
thority to appoint department superin
tendents, revise the premium list and
arrange purses.
1t was voted to invite the Rutland
Horse Show association and the Inter
state Poultry & Pet Stock association to
hold meets with the fair. Secretary w.
X. Farnsworth was elected delegate
to the annual meeting of the Green
Mountain racing circuit and to the an
mal meeting of the National Trotting |
association, which meets in New York |
Feb. 9.
The president was authorized to APP /
point a committee 20 confer with the |
Rutland carnival committee for 1916.
