Halle died nt his home in Springfield, at 1.15 Wednesday afternoon of Brlghl's disease and heart trouble. Ho had been in poor health for more than a year.

William Henry Hallo was a lawyer, a prominent business man and a leader in public life. Mr. Halle's fnther was the first Republican governor of New Hampshire. William H. Halle was born at Chesterfield, N.

Allen being defeated and Mr. Halle again re-elected. In 1802 Mr. Halle was considered the strongest man the Republican party could nominate aginst dovernor Russell, and it was expected by ills political adherents that his populartiy would carry him through. Gov.

Ho belonged to the Win-throp club, a social organization of the strictest sort. Ho also belonged to the Connecticut Valley Congrega tional club, was a director In the Springfield Fire and Marine Insurance company, the Pynchon bank and the Springfield Gas company.

Two cases of diphtheria aro reported from thi' north pait of the town, and one in the village. Mr.

Halle died at his home In Springfield, on Wednesday nfternoon. Mr. Halle has been In falling health for several months, nnd It was known here that he was greatly prostrated as a result of the severe nervous strain from the illness of his son, Harry C. Halle, with small-pox during the last few weeks, but no one wns prepared for news of his death, which came like a shock to all. Mr.

Hallo was a former resident of Hinsdale, a large owner In the Halle Frost woolen mill here, nnd was greatly beloved and respected throughout the town, and the news of his death will come with a sense of personal loss to many.

All the numbers by our local young people wero well selected and pleasingly rendered. The vocal duets by Mrs. John Frost nnd Miss Ettn Stobblns of Vernon were a delight to lovers of music, and were heartily encored, to which the Indies cheerfully responded.

The members of the society thoroughly appreciate the kindness of Mrs. Frost and Miss Stebbins in braving the wind nnd cold to nssist In the program, and it Is hoped that they may bo at some future time, under more favorable circumstances, when a larger number of our people may be able to hear them.

Albans Messenger. This is tho time when tho selectmen of Vermont towns and tho aldermen of Vermont cities aro figuring backwards and forwards, upside down and wrong sldo out, cross ways and end ways, sldo ways and all ways, to see If they cannot doctor up tho liquor agency accounts and prevent any of tho profit from going Into tho state treasury as required by law. The law says tnni all over ten per cent, profit from tho sales of liquor by city and town agencies shall be paid into tho state treasury. Tho law is absurd. Tho pcoplo of tho state of Vermont generally havo no moro right to "all are in tho proceeds of tho salo of liquor in St.

Albans than the merchants of Bellows Falls havo to demand a percentage of tho profit on merchandise sales in Brattleboro. When tho pcoplo of St. Albans lay out their own money to buy liquor, pay with their own money the salary of a man to sell it and tho rent, light and heat, and other incidental expenses of tho agency, thoy havo a right to the entire proceeds of tho salo. If thoy must stand tho loss. If thoro bo ono, so they nro ontltled to receive tho profit.

Tho state does not agreo to pay part of the loss, if thero bo one, but it does insist upon receiving all over 10 por cent, profit. Tho utter failure of consideration in such a proposition as that is apparent to anybody and overybody, oxcopt, of course, to tho littlo towns that do not have agencies themselves, but that, by means of this ridiculous law, share in the profltu made by tho large towns. INVIGORAT ED HOW A WOMAN GOT HER STRENGTH BACK. She Took Our Vinol with Good Results. WE WANT EVERY ONE TO KNOW ABOUT IT.

READ WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY. COME AND SEE US. We don't want any one In this city to drag themselves through life in pain and misery for the want of enough strength to feel well and happy. If you feel listless, without ambition and run down, it is a bad sign. You arc running grave chances.

You are in a condition to be attacked by most nny disease. This feeling of debility is a symptom that your system is generally demoralized. You should take a tonic. You should take Vinol, which we know nnd will guarantee will restore your strength. Following is one case where it did this.

Mrs. T. H. Boyle, of 50 Chestnut West Newton, says: Last spring I used one bottle of Vinol. At that time I was all run down and sick.

I find that it did me lotsof good, and by Ha use my strength came back to me." Vinol is a delicious preparation, containing the active curative principles that are found in cod-liver oil, dissolved in a delicate table wine. Vinol acts directly on the stomach, aiding digestion and nt the same time creating a healthy appetite. It gives fatrength and vigor to every organ of the body. We endorse Vinol, and guarantee its action, and will gladly refund to any one who is not satisfied the money which they paid for it. CEO.
