Col, G. i. King of Bellows Falls and
had been connected with several thea
trical companies in New York. Among
the companies was that of Blanche
Bates Darling of the Gods and he
was hotel clerk in The Gentleman
from Mississippi"
He saw service in the Spanish
American war with company | of
Brattleboro. Last February he en-
listed in the ambulance service of the
Il. S. Army and went to France. While
there he was stricken with paralysis
of the legs and brought to New
York hospital about two months ago.
Since that time his decline had been
gradual.
He had a grandfather, who was pres
ident of Columbia college and another
who was ambassador to England. His
father served in the Civil war and
was lieutenant colonel in the regu-
lar army. The family came to Bel
lows Falls in the early 70s and for a
number of years occupied one of the
most prominent residences in the
town. The funeral was held in New
York city today.

before, Mr. Fisher was a public Ipir-

Kills Catarrh Germs
Breathe Hyomei--A Remedy Free
from Harmful Drugs.
Sold Under Druggists Guarantee

Catarrh is an Inflammation of the
mucous membrane which causes a
discharge.
The Inflammation is caused, some
physicians say, by the pernicious ac-
tivity of little germs of microbes that
lodge in the folds and crevices of the
mucous membrane.
Catarrh can be ended by killing
these germs.
Medicines taken. into the stomach
may act on the blood and tone up the
system, but it is not believed thai
they can destroy catarrh germs.
Sprays and douches are good as far
as they go, but they do not go far
enough. No liquid can reach the low
err throat or lungs, neither can a
liquid penetrate into the folds and
creyices of the membrane. where

Say British Refuse
To Let Truth Be Told
Rv John Grandans.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Berlin, Feb. 22.-(Via wireless to the
United Press)--Austria s answer to
the United States as to the submarine
warfare is eagerly awaited here. Both
Austrian and German officials are
carefully refraining from comment on
the negotiations, but it is sem official
ly pointed out that in May and July
of last year Austria complained to the
United States of the sinking by the
entente of peaceful Austrian ships
without warning. Americas protest to
the entente over such sinkings was
without result. 1t is therefore con
sidered unjust that America should
now complain against Austria's decis-
ion as to submarine measures.
Berlin continues calm, the public
quietly awaiting developments. Great
regret is expressed here that the news
Of the events in the United States
reaches here only through the medium
of the biased British censors, not per-
mitting an acurate resume of eondi-
tions.
All American consuls left Munich on
February 20 except those appointed to
other countries and Consul Harris at
Frankfort, who is i'll.
The meeting Of the main committee
of the reichstag is being attended by
all state secretaries except the i'm
perial chancellor.

The destroyed vessels" =" the state
ment said, "included one ship Of 9,100
tons carrying coal; one of three thou

gross tons, carrying war material for
Italy; another of four hundred tons,

eral cargo; another 300 gross tons, horse

Among the steamers was also a tank
