MRS. H. HARRY MILLER.
Dummerston Woman Was Music Teach
er in Younger DAYS.

Mrs. II. Harry Miller, 30 died in
her home in Dummerston, Wednesday
afternoon, Nov. |. She had been in i'll
health nine months, and had failed
rapidly since August. Mrs. Miller was
Frances Annette Haven, the youngest
of the II children of Ira and Jemima
(Ward) Haven. She was born IN Yer
genncs. When she was a child her par
cnts moved to West Brattleboro,
where her father bought FOR their
home the place now owned by L. II.
Stellman. There she attended the acad-
cmy during the years when Roswell
Harris was at the head of that insttu-
tion, and afterward went to Castleton
seminary, where later she was a teach
er of piano. After leaving Castleton
she taught music some years in Water
town, Mass.
She was married to Henry Harrison

Notes of Election Night.

1t was about 10 clock before the
counters got through with the last of
their long job.
Among those seen wearing Hughes
campaign buttons Tuesday was j. G.
l'ilery, fermeTlx--.ose--o the leading
Democrats of the state.
Several voters were seen to mark
their ballots by laying them on the
railing instead of waiting for oppor-
tunity to use one of the 30 booths pro-
vidcd.
The Windham county ticket was
badly cut locally and the split ballots
required long time to count. Sheriff
Mann was the heaviest sufferer, run
ming a long way behind in Brattleboro.
Col. j. G. Estey was one of the few
observers who were inclined to doubt
the early claims Of Hughes landslide,
lacking as they did any definite basis.
Later in the evening, for that reason,
re was in a position to say: 81 told
you so.
The crowd around The Phoenix bull
lctins was good natured and inclined
to wait until something definite was
posted. The Associated Press returns
proved superior to any other election
service received in town, although at
times definite news seemed decidedly
slow in arriving.
The Reformer bulletin service in the
north window of the Twin State Gas
& Electric Company's office furnished
accurate information of what was
known about the election until after
o clock this morning. A large crowd
was constantly about the window as
the bulletins were changed every few
minutes.
Sandwichcd in among the regular
returns received at the Vermont Wheel
club rooms were number of bulletins
containing grinds on club members
One of those that produced big laugh
was the following: estate s Attorney
elect Daley announced tonight that i'm
mediately upon taking office he should
see that every citizen of Brattleboro
was provided with key to the lock-
up"
There were no notices in the booths
instructing each voter to fold each of
the seven ballots separately. The re-
suit was that many folded all together
and handed them to the constables in
charge of the ballot boxes in tumble.
1t was almost impossible for the CON
stables to sort out the papers and put
them in their proper reccptacles with
out seeing how n voter had marked his
ballot. Folding them all together was
responsible for eight of the representa-.
tive ballots being placed in other bal
lot boxes by mistake.

EASTERN STATES MANAGER.
John O. Simpson of Minnesota State
Fair to Take Charge of Big Spring
field Show January /.

John G.. Simpson, manager of the
Minnesota state fair, on Jan. / will be-
come manager of the Eastern States
Agricultural and Industrial Exposition
of Springfield, Mass, whose grounds and
buildings were dedicated in October by
the National Dairy show.
With what has been declared to be
the finest plant in the country, the di-
rectors of the Eastern States exposi
ton sought the best available man for
manager. When Mr.. Simpson learned
the scope and purpose of the Eastern
States and saw the energy with which
the directors were putting their big
New England program into effect. he
decided to become q part of the move.
ment represented by the exposition.
Mr.. Simpson has had n larger expert
ence than any other man in the country
in the exposition and fair business.
Born in Iowa about 40 years ago, he be-
gan his career i'll the Office of the sec
rotary of the state fair at Des Moines.
In few years he succeeded to the sec
retaryship and in a short time he had
made the Iowa fair the greatest thing
of its kind in the land About six
years ago the Minnesota state fair of
ficials determined to put their institu-
ton ahead of any other and selected
Mr.. Simpson as the man to do this for
them: His record as manager of the
show at Hamline is known to all fair
officials. He found a plant in good con
dition and has made it the biggest and
best of state fairs.
Next year s big show on the grounds
of the Eastern States exposition should
be a fit successor to that of this year,
record breaker though it was. There
will be larger group of buildings, af-
fording more floor space for exhibits
and wider variety of attractions, and
the cattle entries will have the bene-
fit of the awakened interest in New
England and the eastern states. The
show will appeal to cattle, machinery
and stock exhibitors of the entire coun-
try, and the employment of n man of
Mr.. Simpson s character and reputation
insures that it will be a national exposi-
tion.

Five Brothers Fighting for Germany

Luitpold Nuissl, who recently estah-

though they were in the service when
the war broke out and have been at

AT noon the 30 booths provided for

While this was the case inside Fcsti-
