Diminution made a short addiess In which he intiodliced the two speakers, lllsliop .MIrh.iud and the Ilev. Father tiatnondon of the Jesuit order or cjuehec, The discourse of Htshop Midland was most Interesting as well as instructive. He allmlid to th uiy history of the Catholic Church In Vermont and IHirlliig- ton and told, how In a short time the Catholic religion had expanded and churches hud multiplied, lie lelated how the llev. Jeremiah o'CalhiKhan, the only resilient prict In this part of the State for many years, worked unaided anil anally tabllshed the Catholic religion In this State. In Kfn the llrst Catholic cnurcli was built In Hurllnglon where St. .In soph's fftnitcry Is now situated and Fit ther ti'Callagluin ollleiated as pastor as well as vlsiiliig neighboring towns In all parts of the Stale. The dimensions 01 this church were small. It being only l bv 2H tfet, but It would accommodate all the Catliolus In Ibis it.v and the sitr loiinding towns. On May 2. 1W, this small church was burned to the ground and mass was then said every six weeks in tho court house, the old Fletcher library, until the year 1M'. The speakir rifernd to the wife of the late C.overnor Van Nes, who used to attend mass In this building with the poor Irish and French people. The second Catholli Church to be built In this city was then erected on cherry !-treet, where the Kpls copal residence now stands. This was afterwards the residence of the late insn- on l)f (Joesbriand. In H54 the Ilev. Hither O'Calllghan letlred to Holyoke, .Mass. and Vermont lost Its earliest and one of Its most earnest Cnthollc workers. Tho late Ulshop Ie(Snisbrlnnd. who arrived ill tills city la was then bishop of the diocese a? well as pastor of St. Mary's. Cathedral. People then began to pour Into this city from Ireland and Canada and It was soon evident that another church would be necessary. in July I. 1SS4, tho corner stone of the present fit. Joseph's Clinrili was laid and on June 21, Its? the I'diruc was blessed by the most Rev Kdw-.ird Charles Fabre, archbishop of Montreal. The sp'nkcr then told how the giowth of Ihe Catholic religion had caused the erection of many clinches In all parts of the Stale and how the Cath olic people had always nobly responded to every cull for aid In their erection. The llev. Cither Damondon of the Jes uit order from Quebec, then gave a ser mon In French. He said, that the growth of this country nnd every civilized na tion was owing to the llrm religious con victions of its people. No country can prosper without the church and the more religious the Inhabitants are the better country thc will have to live In. He referred to Africa and the non-rellglous attitude of its people and then drew a comparison between their country and the nations where the church is firmly established. High mass was then sung by the. Rev. NEttS OF VERMONT More Importnat Flvent Urnnneil fc Free Press Ilenders Itlchfortl Still on the Mnp of the United Xfnlcs.

Miss Ida Tnrhell, the arch enemy of John I), llockefeller ami the Standard Oil company, concludes her scathing at tack upon the corporation anil the man In the August issue of McClure's Mag azine. Her last effort Is a character sketch of the magnate, anil, quoting the. late Mark lliinna, she says of him: Money mail; money mail: sane In every other respect: hut money mad." The writer apologizes for the "brutal ity Inherent in such a study as this" by stating that Mr. llockefeller Is not tho only fine nt his kind. She calls him tho type preeminent In the public mind of the militant business man of the day mid adds: "From bankers down to street venders we have in operation the code which he has wotked out so perfectly, and to which he has given the sanction of piety. And this code so repugnant to the sense of fair play and so demoralizing to Intel leetnal honesty, has woiiteil lit way Into every activity of life, until with a grow. Ing clement of the country success Is the Justification of any piactlce, until no price is too great to pay for winning." "A I.tVINO MI'MJIY." The graphic description of Mr. llocke feller follows: "The Impression lie makes on one who spcs him for the first time Is overwhelm ing, brought face to fnco with Mr. llockefeller unexpectedly, nnd not know ing him, tho writer's Immediate thought was, 'This Is the oldest man in the world a living mummy.' Hut there is no sense of feebleness with the sense of ago; indeed there Is one of terrilic power. The disease which ill tho last three or four years has swept Mr. tloekcfeller's head bare of hair, striped away even eyelashes anil eyebrows, has revealed all the strength of his great head. Mr. llockefeller Is a big man, not overfall, but large, with powerful shoulders, and it neck like that of a bull. The head Is wide and deep and dis proportionately high, with curious bumps made more conspicuous by the tightly drawn, dry, nuked skin. The Interest of the big face lies ill the eyt s and mouth. Kyis more useful for a man of Mr. llocliefellrr's practlies could hardly be conceived. They are small and intent and rteady, ami they arc as expression less as it wall. They see everything and reveal nothing. It Is not n shift eye I not a cruel or leering one. It is some-j thing vastly more to be feared a hlink eye, looking through nnd through things, and telling nothing of what It found ou the way. HIS KXPIIKSSIVR MOCTH. Tint If the eyes say nothing the mouth tells much Its former mask, the full mustache Mr. llockefeller has always worn, Is now completely gone, inueeu, the greatest loss Mr. llockefeller sus tained when his hair went was that It revealed his mnuUi. It Is only a slit the lips are quite lost, as if by eternal grinding together of the teeth teeth set on something ho would have. H is at once the cruellest ami moi paincnc. for the hard, close-set line slants down ward at the comers, giving a look of age and sadness. The downward droop is emphasized hy deep, vertical furrows running from each side of his nose. Mr. Hockefrller may have made himself thn richest man In the world, but he has paid. Nothing hut paving ever ploughs such lines In a man's face, ever sets his lips to such a melancholy angle. "The big cheeks are puffy, bulging tm- plensant under the eyes, ami tho skin which covers them has a curiously un healthy pallor. It Is this pufllnes, this unclean flesh which repels, as tho thin slit of n mouth terrifies. To the whole face a certain distinction Is lent by tho nose, which is small and fine, rising llko a thorn from between the heavy cheeki a nose whose nostrils might vibrate wern not the man so much the master of his features." Miss Tarbell turns to the "other man," the other side of llockefeller. "There Is," she says, "probably not a public character In the Fulled States whose private life Is more completely concealed than Is said of John I. llocke feller. The chili never sees him. He Is almost never numbered among the ban queters nt great celebrations. Ho never appears on the platform when men of public Importance gather to discuss ptlbllu questions or stimulate to action In pub lic causes. His opinions on great Issues are never quoted. A B1MPI.F. PRIVATK I.IFK. "There Is little doubt that Mr. Ilocke. feller's chief reason for playing golf Is that ho iimy live longer in order to make more money. 'Ilo has two ambitions, a lifelong Intimate of Mr. llockefeller once salil, 'to be very old and to be. very rich.' Ho Is sixty-six years old now. "Tho dally life on his great estates Is studiously simple. Mr. Rockefeller reg tlUtes his household as ho does his htisl ners. Family mid servants aro trained In tho strictest economy. Thero Is no more gns burned than is needed, no un necessary heating, no wasteful provid ing. Thero Is nothing for display, noth ing squandered in the senseless Ameri can way to provo you nro rich, so rich you need not cam. "Ho Is not it great man," she con cinder, "not a human man. He Is u machine a money machine stripped by hl overwhelming passion nf greet) of every quality which makes a man wor thy of citizenship, Ilo hns not m.ulo good, lie cannot niaku food. It is not In hint." No confirmation can be obtained from town oflifials, or any other peisons In position to know tho facts, of the sensa tional rumor printed In Hostoti, Now York and Montreal paper, to the effoct that Ihe recent survey of tho International boundary line indicated that the villages of Hlchford, Hast ljlchford and Stevens .miiis were on tnc ennmnnn sine or in border. It has been known for some tltno that tho present line varied slightly from thn 4.1th parallel of latitude, which mark the division between the two countries but there Is no evidence to show that th variation will mako uny Important changes. STHANCB COINCIHICNCH IN A FIIIE. A strange coincidence by which a fire broke out Tuesday in the same place where It broke out three years ago, July llioj, the same visitor being present, occurred In F.noshilrgh Falls Tuesday morning when at ten o'clock n bla7.e started from sparks which caught In the roof of F. I0, Young's blacksmith shop on South Main street. Two hoic com panies were soon on the scene and the llro was extinguished. The roof was damaged slightly and the water did some damage to sleighs and wagons stored on the second floor. ICdwnrd Ilrady of Fast Ilakersfleld, who was In thn shop having his horses shod when the fire, broke out three years ago, was also there Tuesday for that purpose. FNION8 AM. AFFIMATF.D.

M., of East Washington street, Rutland, anil an assistant who aro driving around the State practicing quack dentistry, visit ed bethel Friday, remaining for a few days. Many who were not satisfied to have their teeth extracted in any other way 'than to suffer tho experi ence of being humbugged, patronized the two nun. In many of the towns in which they hnvo passed the pat. cuts who have had their teeth extracted with out pain, have suffered serious and painful after effects. In bethel Ned George, aged nineteen years, had twen ty-three teeth extracted without pain. The teeth were sound and came hard, and a largo amount of cocaine was in jected into the Jaw. For the past eighty hours the boy has been suffer ing terrible pain and his jaws arc badly swollen. Two doctors have been summoned but are unable to bring re lief as an aesthetic cannot be admin istered on account of the cocaine. As soon as Pr.

Ilnrglnrs FrlgM rned Awny by n Young Hull Dog. burglars entered the house of C. C. Nlles of Champlaln street Monday night between S and D o'clock and secured a. lot of plunder, but carried away nothing na they were probably frightened fty tho barking of a flog. Mr. Niles was the only ono in tho house at the time and heard no sound. The young bull ting which Is owned by Mr. NIIcs barked loudly several times nnd this is supposed to have frightened the burglars. Mr. Niles could not understand what mado the dog bark and punlbhcd him to mako him keep quiet. The burglars entered the house by climbing a lilac bush to a shed and then removing a sen en from a. bedroom win dow. They rifled drawers and wardrobes anil secured a quantity of clothes, a couple of watches, a clock, etc., all o which was later found outside the house. 1'nrler a shaving mug In ono of the rontm was $1 but the thlccs did not discover this. The tumbled rooms were discovered but It wis thought that some one had been playing jokes and It was not ui II Tuesday morning that Mr. Nllea became ware that a burglary had been committed.
