STATE NEWS NOTES.
Hermit Found Dead.

John Tracy, on aged man, life
long resident of Essex Junction, was
found dead one morning this week at
his home. a little house on the Col
chester road where he had lived the
life Of a hermit for over 10 years.
Joseph Paladee. who drives a bakery
team. went there to take his order, as
was his custom He got no response
from his knocking and thought best to
notify DR.. G. NJ FeErin, health officer,
who told Mn Norton to break open the
door. When this was done Mr.. Tracy
was found on the floor, where he had
fallen from the bed. He had been dead
several hours There was no fire IN the
house and a kettle of water on the
stove was frozen solid. The doctor
thought it probable that Mr.. TracE had
been i'll for a dav or 50. Death was
due to cold and lack OF nutriment.
Mr.. Tracy was born in Essex June
tion September -. 1922. Family trou-
bles caused him to take up the life he
had lived. Although his home was poN-
crty-stricken in appearance, ne had
about $4,000 iii the bank and valued the
farm upon which his Ferrln house
stands at about $4,000. Mr.. Tracy was
never married and his only surviving
relative is niece, Mrs. Manley Allen,
of Hardwick.
Or. Ferrin and others had tried this
winter several times to have him make
other arrangements for living and care
but he would not do so, stating that
| it would be too expensive.

MEXICO CITY, Jan 27.-Secretary
Of State Lansing has sent to Gen. Car
ranza through Charles &. Parker, Amer
lean charge 'aflaires here, eommuni-
cation in regard to certain provisions
which il has been proposed to include
in the new Mexican constitution. The
communication calls attention to the
article yesting the executive with
power to appropriate property without
judicial recourse and also the article
providing that civil. commercial com
panies cannot own properties of great
err area than is necessary to accomplish
the purpose for which they are formed
and placing the power to determine
what area is necessary in the hands Of
the executive.
The communication says that if the
latter provision is made retroactive il
might be made cOnfiscatory as no pro.
vision is made for compensation.
