GEORGE ROBERTS MINER

The sad intelligence was received
her on Friday morning last of the
death in New York City Of George
Roberts Miner on Thursday, the 4th
of April. Mr.. Miner was in very poor
health when he left Manchester last
fall, having had an attack of heart
trouble during the late summer
brought on by over-work about his
place here in this village, He was
confined to his rooms for some time
but was finally able to be up and
about, but had to be very careful in
his moving around. OF a naturally
superb physique it seemed odd to see
one whom we had always noticed as
stepping off so rapidly being obliged
to measure his pace. After returning
to New York he steadily grew worse
until the end came as stated above.
George Miner was born on the 18th
of August, 1862, in the village Of Man
chester, youngest son and child of the
late Altman Louis and Susan Roberts
Miner, and his boyhood was spent in
his native town He received his cdu
cation in the common schools of the
town and at Burr and Burton Sem
mary lie entered Norwich Uniycr
sity in 1879 and graduated b. s. III
1888. He was oditor-in-chicf Of the
"Rovcille" published at the University
and at his concluding his work there
went into the employ Of James Gordon
Bennett on the New York Herald
where he remained for many years,
holding various editorial positions
among them being Sunday editor from
1904 to 1908 and manager Of the Lon
don, Eng, edition from 1908 to 1911,
during which time his regular letters
under the nome-de- plume Of IAN
American First Nighter' was very
popular feature.
At different times he was Sunday
editor of the Philadelphia Press and
was also owner Of the Bangor, Me.
Daily News for some years. With the
New York World he was successfully
dramatic editor, Sunday editor and
news editor His last newspaper con
nection was with the New York Sun
with which he was connected for a
few years as Sunday editor He was
married on June TO- 1886, to Miss
Mary s. Upton Of Salem, Mass, who
with one daughter, the wife Of Henry
r. Wolf of New York City, and two
grand children, survive. He is also
survived by a half sister, Mrs. II.
McKie Wing Of Glens Falls, n. \.
The funeral services were held in
Zion Church on Saturday afternoon
and the remains were laid at rest in
the family lot in Dellwood Cemetery,
the bearers being five Of his boyhood
friends, X. J. and A. c. Orvis, &. L.
and w X and O. r. Bennett,
and a cousin, W. H. Roberts. Mrs.
Miner and Mr. and Mrs. Wolff accom-
panied the body from New York City,
while Mrs. J. c. Roberts accompanied
by her son, Christopher Roberts Of
Rutland, were present.

firing THE FURNACE
IOWA FUEL ADMINISTRATORS
GIVES INSTRUCTIONS.

Sioux City, Jan. 9.-Fuel Admins
traitor Webster has issued the follow
ing directions for firing the furnace
In a house for the night:
In firing for the night, the fresh
charge should be placed on the fuel
bed and the draft opened for a short
time, from five to Is minutes. Then
the damper should be opened and the
ash pit damper closed for the night.
In this way the gas is burned off and
its heat utilized. This, heat would
be lost IL the furnace was closed at
once after firing. In order to handle
a fire this way the furnace must be
tight. A furnace with loose fitting
doors and hampers will admit so
much air that the fire cannot be eff
fectively checked after once being
started. Sometimes il is possible or
desirable in mild weather to bank or
cover the fire with ashes to keep il
over night. With some Goals this
cannot be done because of excessive
clinkering. If any considerable
amount Of coal or coke drops through
the CRATES 1t may be recovered by
sitting the ashes, or il may be burned
IL the ashes are used for banking.

MARRIED A SOLDIER
SENATOR'S DAUGHTER Is BACK
IN WASHINGTON.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 9.-Mrs.
Gill, daughter of Senator Johnson,
Of South Dakota, is back in Washing
ton after her romantic marriage with
Corp. c. Gill, Battery f, 147th field
artillery. Mrs. Gill was Miss Emily
Johnson, and well known in social
circles here. Corp. Gill is a business
man of Yankton. He and his bride
have been acquainted for many years.
Mrs. Gill will live with her parents,
while Corp. Gill, a South Dakota
guardsman, goes to France. The
wedding "a arranged quickly. II
was at Englewood, N. J.
my husband came to Washington
New Years evening and he had to
be back at Camp Merritt in six hours
to report for duty" she said, $50 we
just got on a train and went to En-
glewood and were married"
Here was how the bride described
her leaving home:
You IA call it an elopement OIL
anything you wish, but we did not
have any time to spare, SO We just
left.
my husband is now with his reg
iment at Camp Merritt. Tenafly, N
j.. where they are awaiting orders

RECORD Mark
IOWA TOWN RAISES $4,000 IN
RED CROSS DRIVE.

Newell, Ia. Jan. 9.-In a big Red
Cross drive here via the auction sale
route Newell went way over the top
with a grand total of an even $10,-
900. This Is believed to be a record
mark for communities of less than
1000 population. Among the arti-
cles offered for sale was a turkey do
mated by M. j. O'Connor, which was
sold and resold for the sum of
$500, another record mark, in the
state at Least, for a turkey or chicken
sale. Other offerings over the auc-
ton block, all donated by the farm
ers and town people, were 10 head
OF hogs, 30 cattle, 6 horses, 800
chickens, turkeys, ducks, machinery,
furniture and hundreds of smaller
articles. The women realized over
$500 from a cafeteria dinner al
which more than 500 were served,
At a big roast pig banquet it was
voted that the $500 turkey be sent
to President Wilson and a collection
taken and money raised to defray
the expenses of Mr.. O'Connor. who
will accompany this very a~ristocratiC
fowl to Washington and present IL
to the president in person. Presi-
dent Wilson has been the recipient OF
many turkeys, but this is the first
instance of any community sending a
representative a distance of 1900
miles with the bird to see that it is
safely delivered into his hands.

MAY CONTROL PACKERS
Federal Government May Take
Over Meat Industry of U. S.
Action Appears Evident AS Trade
Commissioners Inquiry into
Industry Proceeds.

Philadelphia, Jan. S.-As the federal
trade commissions inquiry into the
meat situation continues 1t appears
more and more evident that the federal
government intends to take over the
meat industry of the United States,
one of the principal necessities of war
time.
Before leaving for Washington, en-
route to st. Paul, where the investiga-
ton Is to be resumed in a few days,
Francis j. Heney, special prosecutor
for the commission, said everyone
could see the turn the investigation
had taken"
Evidence taken during three days
grilling Of witnesses tended to prove
that a coterie of Chicago meat pack
ers form virtually a monopoly of the
meat business of the country; that in
dependent packers have been "squeez-
ed" almost out OF business, and that
prices are regulated at the dictation of
the trust" which is holding vast
stores of hides while leather and shoe
prices soar.
The principal issue of the federal
trade commission in its investigation in
st. Paul will be to ascertain what
became of the $500, 900 bonus raised
by st. Paul business men to procure
the location of Armour & Co.'S pack,
ing plant for South ST. Paul. Francis
j. Heney recently charged that the
$500, 600 was divided by the Armour
company with Swift & Co. in an effort
to cut out competition and share prof,
its.

SUFFERING GREAT IN N. Y
Crisis In Gotham Coal Shortage ID
Reached.

New York, Jan. despite con-
centrated efforts to relieve the situa-
ton, the city has experienced its
worst distress since the extreme cold
weather began a week ago.
Aside from continued widespread
suffering in the homes OF rich and
poor alike, so serious was the coal
shortage that many large office build
lngs may close, according to Reeve
Schley, county fuel administrator, un-
less supplies reach the city at once.
The greatest problem again is the
freeing of coal-laden barges from the
packed ice foes at tide water points
to get them across to Manhattan and
Brooklyn shores. A fleet Of govern
ment tugs battled all day to clear
a passage to the ice-encrusted shores
after numerous harbor tugs had
been disabled In the work.
