Mr. Alvara Shiimway, a former
resident of this town, now of Hair
dolph, N. Y. has recently been
alllicted with a painful disease of the
eye making it necessary to remov
one of them. The operation was re

We briefly announced in a part of
our last issue the death of Mr. John
G. Whitman, which occurred about
two o'clock ou the afternoon of last
Thursday.
Mr. Whitman was born in this
town Nov. 13, 180!), and has always
resided here. About 22 years ago
his wife died aod since that time he
continued to occupy bis homestead,
having one or more of his children
with him. Funeral services were
held Sunday at the Baptist church,
Rev. 0. 1 Fuller, ofliciatiug. Mr,
Whitman left seven children, five of
whom, Mrs. Cobb of Brattleboro,
Mrs. Wilder of Troy, X. Y., Mrs.
Evans of this place, and O. II. of
Bellows Falls, were present, also a
grandson, son of Ora of Manchester.
Mr. Silas Whitman of this village is
the only remaining member left of
his generation.
"Uncle John" as he was univerS'
ally called, had resided here so long
that he had become a village fixture
and his well known walk, and his
short emphatic voice w ill be missed
on our streets.

"There has been the most delight

'for one sniff of this nice morning air
would bring the entire people of those

they could reach Sprague, and thev

With perseverence the thing is brought

evidence against him. But all the way
through it is our knowledge of thieves,
their haunts, ways and companions that

The Clerk and the "looker."
The salesmen have some disagreeable
experiences with customers, nnd it is some
times hard forthem to keep their tempers.
The worst fiend they encounter is the
woman who is "only looking." She will
approach a counter and immediately
spread herself all over it She asks to see
some calico of a certain print; this does
not suit her, and she "asks for another
pattern, only to put it away and call for
something else. After the third call the
clerk begins to grow suspicious; "she's 'a
looker,'" ho says to himself. Still she
goes on calling for something else.
'Haven't you this in red?"
"Yes'ui." (The clerk takes down the
desired style.)
"But I wanted something In red, with a
leafy figure; haven't you something in
that line?"
The clerk looks her over. "Yes, why
didn't you say that was what yon
wanted?"
"Must I tell you yonr business; I'm
sure you're the most perfectly awful stu
pid man I ever saw; your"
But here the desired style is spread be
fore her. It docs not suit. The leaf is too
leapiy leafy, or the figure is too utterly
too ajithetic, and she suddenly discovers
that it was no: a red pattern at all that
she wauted, but a blue.
By this time her ingenuity is exhausted,
and with a sigh she turns away.
"I guess I won't buv today," she says,
"because I'm only looking." D. J. Mc
Grath in Boston Globe."
An Actress Tlaying Corpse.
It Is not easy for a good actor to play a
corpse. Miss Annie Kusscll had an ex
perience the other evening that illustrates
a scarco suspected difficulty, yet one that
iiiigm easuy mm n s:wi scene iuto a ridic
ulous furce. In the last act, for fully fif
teen minutes, the l.vly muid of Astolat !s
seen by the audience stretched out upon
her bed that has been lain upon the barge,
her limbs rigid, her features firm and one
hand visible, stiffened in death. A whi;e
light is thrown upon her. A feeling of
sadness pervaded the audience as they
watched the pale countenance. Not a
single person in the theatre knew what
was passing through tho mind of the
corpse. Miss Russell was In perfect
agony. She felt that her rigidity of limb
and eusivetiess of feature were sadly Im
periled. Her nose twitched, and she felt
that she was about to sneeze. Horrors!
Farewell, smooth. Placid features locked
111 death; farewell, tears standing in many
eyes, atitl. horrors! laughter, convulsive
langhter! Fortunately she did not sneeze.
"But, oh my! if I had," she said plain
tively, "would it cot have been perfectly
awfui?" New York Herald.
Here's hoping it will be a thousand
years before another snow storm.
the biggest snow storm known
during the present generation, in Ver
mont, set in last Sunday forenoon
and lasted until Tuesday night. All
day Monday and Monday night the
snow fall was accompanied by high
winds, and to say that huge drifts
were made, almost everywhere is
drawing it mildly. The snow fall
was fully 30 inches. Main street in
this village was drifted beyond any
thing ever seen by the oldest inhabi
tants. To give our distant readers,
who are acquainted, an idea of the
matter we will state that between the
evidence of Dr. Marden and that of
E. Cud worth a huge drift lay
Tuesday morning fully ten feet deep
nd extending across tha road ; from
the dug-way to the residence of Lar-
in Smith was a continuous drift,
much of which had to be shoveled be
fore a team could be got through ; op
posite the Hoskins house and Wm.
Thompson's were drifts 6 feet in
depth. Not a team was seen on our
streets from Monday afternoon until
Tiiesdav afternoon when Mr. O. S.
Stuart got out a pair of horses and
accompanied by Mr. S. M. Ho-
bart, who had previously shoveled out
few of the worse places, drove from
Mr. Stuart's residence to the post-
ollice aud down as far as the carriage
shop. Wednesday morning the same
parties started out, and with the as
stance of four or five shovelers
reached the old Hubbard Barrett
place about noon. On Tuesday
afternoon R. E. Bostwick, who lives
a mile and a half out, got into the vil
lage with a pair of horses, and in the
afternoon Josiah Pierce got through
from his place and the Holden bovs
from the hill farm.
On Ihursday most of the roads
throughout town were opened
Thursday night we received our first
mail by the way of Chester, but it
contained nothing later than Monday
lo bring tins mail the driver had to
back it from the Andover aud Ches
ter town line to Simonsville. Friday,
by the same route, we got a full mail
with Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday's dailies, from which
we learned of the severity of the
storm throughout its wide area.
The Narrow Gauge.
The regular mail train left this sta
tion Monday morning and reached
Brattleboro. At the same time the
mixed train left Brattleboro for this
place but was stalled a little this side
of Jamaica, where it remained until
Friday when an engine with the snow
plow, that left Brattleboro Monday
afternoon, reached it and pulled it
back to Jamaica. Reinforced by
this engine, Saturday morning a push
was made to clear the remaining dis
tance, at this end, but early in the
morning the snow plow left the track,
and in such shape as to compel a h -lay
until Brattleboro could be re Hi -!
ed and tackle obtained by which t-
place it on the track. The track v 11
probably not be cleared before ! -
day or Tuesday so as to resume
nlar trains. After getting through to
this point it will be necessary to go
back and clear tho lower end of the
track that filled in after the snow
plow. This will be, as we under
stand it, from West Dummerston to
Brattleboro. Altogether nothing like
this storm can be recalled by our old
est inhabitant, yet, compared with
many other places in the storm area,
we came out of it well. No reports
of loss of life or severe suffering has
reached us from this locality. Below
we give a few press dispatches that
will give our readers an idea of. the
extent and severity of the storm.
The storm extended over New
England, all of New York as far
west as Buffalo, the greater part of
Pennsylvania, the northern part of
West Virginia, and the whole of New
Jersey, Maryland, Delaware aud the
District of Columbia. Cauada also
came in for her share of the blizzard.
Throughout all these sections railroad
travel has beeu generally suspended
and telegraphic commitment i ,n in a
great measure cut off from Monday
moruiiig until Thursday. Thursday
a few of the roads got trains started,
but probably not until Saturday will
trains be running on schedule time.

Springfield, March 14. The storm
here was the worst ever known.
Over two feet of snow fell. Every
road is blockaded. There have been
no mail trains or stages since Mon

Vegeiines, March 14. The worst
wind and snow storm ever known has
been raging since Sunday night. All

' Elsewhere.
New York, March 14. Reports
show there were 40 trains blockaded
yesterday between New York and
Albany, and 18 between this city and
Vonkers. Only one train was moved
this side of Utica, and that was the
St. Louis express, which was pulled
outofabankof snow near Spuyteu

The New Haven railroad officials
made a vigorous effort to open the
road to-day, but failed. It is very
doubtful if the New York division
will be cleared before Friday.
Worcester, Mass., March 14. A
suow plow from Springfield got
through on the Boston & Albany
road to-night, having been two days
on the road.
Peterboro, N. II., March 14.
This is the worst drifting snow storm
