Travel

The wanderlust you feel is a natural
desire to see new places, think
new thoughts, meet new people.
It's not an abnormal craving for change,
for excitement, it's a normal de
sire to broaden one's self.
Travel has well been called the great
educator.
DON'T PUT OFF THAT TRIP !
It's easy and inexpensive.
William Silas Bean.
William Silas Bean, first-born child
and only son of Charles T. Bean and
Lillian R. Bean, died at the home of
his parents in Newport Thursday.
July 31, at the age of 36, of acute
Bright s disease. While he had been
in poor health for two years, there
were no symptoms of the disease
which had been sapping his vitality,
and his sudden death came as a severe
shock to his family and the community.
Will, as everyone called him, was
Dorn in JNortn Troy April b, loYY, Out
had always made Newport his home.
He was a regular attendant of the
Baptist church. He was graduated at
Newport high school, class of 1894 and
University of Vermont, class of 1898,
where he was a member of the Delta
Psi fraternity. He was a natural mu
sician and in college was the leader of
the banjo club. He studied law at New
York Law school and was admitted to
the bar of New York state and for
nearly two years after his admission to
the bar," he was assistant attorney in
the department of excise of New York
state and located in New York city.
In 1904, Will was selected by Senator
Redfield Proctor as his private secre
tary, which position he filled until the
senator's death. As secretary he had
charge of the voluminous correspond
ence of Senator Proctor and was so
capable, efficient and diplomatic that
the senator trusted him implicitly in
the manifold and delicate questions
which daily demanded attention. Sen
ator Proctor and his family always
expressed in strongest terms their
appreciation of his ability and fidelity.
Senators Sewart and Page continued
Will in the same position and his
knowledge and experience were of
great value to the senators entering
upon their new duties. Two years ago
Will decided that it was time for him
to begin the practice of his chosen
profession, the law, and he also
thought Washington climate was not
agreeing with him, so he returned to
the hills of Vermont, which he loved,
and to his Newport home, which to him
was the dearest spot on earth. He
soon found that he was not ' strong
enough to undertake the work of his
cherished ambition and he was com
pelled to remain at home, fondly
hoping to regain his health and become
established in business for himself.
The Monday before his death he was
on the street "apparently in usual
health. He was taken ill suddenly at
four o'clock Tuesday morning and
after a very severe illness passed
away at two o'clock Thursday morning.
It was only at the last that he
showed the symptoms of the dread
disease, from which he must have
been suffering for a long time. As we
recall, during the past two years, his
patience and optimism, his never fail
ing and uncomplaining tenderness with
the loved ones at home, when he must
have known his strength was waning,
we realize how unselfish and thoughtful
of others he was. His natural bent
was for literary pursuits, and he was
especially adapted to journalism
His style was crisp and his letters
were models of perspicacity with a
quiet humor that was delightful. He
was of a reserved, retiring nature and
had none of the self-confidence and
assertiveness that puts to the front
men much inferior in ability, but
when placed in positions of trust, as
in Washington, he showed that loyalty
and fidelity that endeared him to all,
Every one recognized his manly, ster
ling qualities. No one could imagined
Will Bean doing an unmanly or ungen-
tlemanly act. While his sudden death
has left his family stricken and deso
late, they will always have to comfort
them, and will always cherish the
memory of his noble character and his
pure and upright life. He is survived
by his father and mother and two
sisters, Miss Alice Bean and Mrs.
Harold F. French. The funeral was
held Saturday at 2.30 p. m. at his
home in Newport, with interment in
the West Derby cemetery. The Rev.
H. B. Rankin of the Baptist church
and the Rev. L. " A. Edwards of the
Congregational church were the offi
ciating clergymen. Burlington Free

and with the contents, 100 tons of hay,
was totally destroyed.
One of the strange freaks of light
ning in a recent storm is reported
from East Burke. A man named
Smith was sitting in his yard holding
a kitten in his arms during the storm
and he was hit by lightning, the bolt
instantly killing the kitten while the
man escaped with a few burns and
the shock.
