Among the first settlers of the now flour- ishing city of Grand Bapids, Mioh., were Mr. and Mrs. Willard Sibley, who removed there from Peru, Clinton County, N. Y.> in 1834. Mr. Sibley's occupation, after his settle- ment in the West, was that of a river boat- man, first managing a pole boat between the rapids and the mouth of Grand Biver. .s soon as steamboats appeared upon the river, Mr. Sibley was placed in oharge as iptain, and continued in that oapacity un- til failing health compelled him to relin- quish its labors and responsibilities. A daughter, Sarah, married Mr. A. B. Turner, editor of the Grand Bapids Eagle. In 1851, Mr. Sibley died, and some two years later Mrs. Sibley married Mr. Asa Pratt. Since the death of Mr. Pratt, she has lived with the family of Mr. Tur- ner, where she died on the 25th of last January, at the good old age of 85 years. The above portrait having appeared in the columns of Mr. Turner's paper, we are permitted to place it before our readers, thinking that the older people of Peru and Sohuyler Falls will be interested to see it. She was born in Peru in 1803. She was a woman of great energy and perseveranoe, but modest, unassuming and retiring in her manners. Trapped a t B i s Own Game. Some weeks ago the papers printed what was alleged to be the Canadian way of trapping the pesky English sparrows, and one of the sorrowful results of that act is told by a Sandy Hill correspondent of the Fort Edward Clipper, as follows : A hater of sparrows, just outside our corporate limits, read in a Glens Falls p iper that the birds could easily be caught toy feeding them bread soaked in liquor. He thought he would investigate the mat- ter and bought a pint in which he soaked bread. He just happened to taste of the preparation, and he liked it. Then he brushed the crumbs from his whiBkers to obfterve their effect upon the pests. He said to himself: "Bread is the staff of life, and so ia whisky. Combine the two and yon hare staff, crutch and all." Mean- while he kept on eating. Only one pair of the lone-born sparrows assisted him in the feast, but they, in his vision, in- creased until the enow was fairly covered with them, he thought. Then the flock began to get ''tight," he surmised, and he eonoladed to watch them until they, tipped over. Just then his dog came along and he rubbed his eyes in astonishment and said: "Hello, Tip! By Jove, there are two of you!" His wife, observing him munch- ing what was left of the loaf, opened the door and asked him "what under the sun be was doing!" "Washin' the birds," he said; "don't you see how they double up— birds and dogs ?" At this point his wife drew him into the kitchen," doubled him np in a chair behind the stove, whereat this husband whom she had addressed as a duck during their oourtship, looked in a state of bewilderment at her and said: "My-dear-you'r-as-drunk-as-the-sparrows." A raetbodiHt Minister's Good Fortune, About a year ago the Bey. S. M. William; moved to North Adams, Mass., from Cam- bridge, 'Washington oonnty. With his fam- ily was an old lady, Mrs. Mary J. Mooney, who was supposed to be dependent on Mr. Williams' bounty. Last week Tuesday sh( died suddenly of heart disease, aged 72 years. It is now stated that she left Mr. Williams $60,000 unconditionally. When the old lady's husband died Mr. Williams settled the estate, and she asked that she might make her home with him. She gave hiax $15,000, with which he is now build- ing a blook in Troy. She bas now left him the blook in Troy, a large farm in Central New York, and $10,000 in cash. Keesevllle Fire Department.

Please bear in mind that next Tuesday evening, Feb. 28th, a grand oonoert will be given in Shedden's Hall, Mooers, N. X, by Miss Blanche Maud Hight, Of Boston, the accomplished elocutionist, and the Mendelssohn vocal quartette.

The quartette is composed of the very best singing talent, and cannot fail to please an audience. The concert will be given under the auspices of the Woman's Belief Corps and the G. A. B.

Two cases on appeal from the Essex County Circuit were argued before Judge Potter at his special term at Whitehall on Tuesday of last week. One of these was an insuranoe case, in- volving the insurance on the Allen House at Lake Placid, on which $17,000 insur- ance had been placed in the Germania In- suranoe Company, of New York, and other insuranoe companies. The defence was that $15,000 was the limit of insurance authorized to be plaoed, bnt it was proved the building was worth $25,000. Decision reserved. K. L. Hand for plaintiff; Judge Smith for insurance oompany. Another case in which the same counsel were engaged was summed up. This was an ejectment case, Wilson agst. Briggs, involving the title to 26 acres of land in Chesterfield. Both parties claim as devi- sees under their father's will, the defen- dant alleging that the property, though not correctly desoribed in the will was in tended to be given to her. Death of Mrs. Samuel Bullen. Mrs. Samuel Balien, after a long and severe illness, died at her home in Jay, on Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 7th, at 2 P. M. Her bed was surrounded by her six children— three sons and three daughters, who, with the rest of their relatives, have the heart- felt sympathy of this community. Mrs, Bullen has been an invalid for the past forty years—twenty-nine of which she has been unable to walk without assistance all of which she has patiently borne. She was endowed with a noble and generous nature, and lived faithfully trusting in the Redeemer. The funeral services were held at the house of the deceased, Rev, Mr. MoArthur, of Blaok Brook, officiating. The remains were taken to Black Bxook for interment. Godey's L.ady »• Book. What lady is there who does not want GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK? If there be any snob, it must be among those who have not teen this popular magazine. The coming of tbe March number, which is full of valu- able and readable artioles, reminds ns to say that GODEY'S is eminently a family magazine which every lady ought to have. Its fashion articles are standard authority among ladies who love to dress well. Its studies in home art-work, deooration, man- agement and culinary affairs are worthy the attention of all who prize happy and attractive homes. Mrs. Oroly, who has added to her former literary triumphs by her success in the editorial oondnct of GODET, contributes to this number an arti- cle of rare merit on a woman who has at- tained oelebrity in fruit-raising. Mr. Dodge's sketch of the advantages of tricy- cling will commend itself to the ladies who value exeroise and health. In short stories, oontinned stories, poetry, and illustrations, the March number presents attractions far greater than the price would seem to indi- cate. The price is only two dollars a year, with pleasant inducements in premiums and prizes. Write to the Croly Publish- ing Company, 1224 Arch Street, Philadel- phia, Pa. American Agriculturist.

The initial volume will appear early in the spring. Eaoh book will be fully illustrated and will be written in an entertaining style. Tne Forum. President Seelye, of Amherst College, has made a study of "Our Political Prospects' to determine what large moral principles the political party that hopes for permanent suocessmust build itself upon. This essay will appear in the Forum for March. In the same number Representative William M. Springer explains the "Hindrances to Sur- plus Seduction," and Wm. B. Morrison points out from a revenue reform point of view, "Who is Benefited by Protection." From the Essex Co. Republican. Fern Lake Trotting. The quiet borders of Fern Lake, Ausable Forks, witnessed an unusual sight on Fri- day and Saturday of last week. It was the assemblage of some five hundred people to witness the races of the Ausable ' Forks Trotting Association, at their annual meet, which if not entirely successful as far c fast trotting was concerned was certainly very pleasant occasion toali who attended, At noon of each of the day's racing, teams began wending their way toward the plao of rendezvous and at 2:30, when the raoes were called, the shining surface of the lake presented an animating scene. Twi races were booked for Friday and the same for Saturday, but owing to lack of entries only the named race was trotted on Friday and the free-for-all on Saturday. In the first of these there were two en- tries, "Quebec Boy," owned by E. S. Kemp, and "Bay Dan" and the latter, owned by Israel Bigelow, easily proved the fastest horse. In the free-for-all, Sat- urday, there appeared to be prospect of closer race. Three horses were entered, 'Peddler," owned by E. S. Kemp; "Ben B., u owned by Wm. Harper, and "Chasm Maid," owned by Horace Page. Keesevill succeeded in taking first and second "Ben B." easily leading and "Chasm Maid" sec- ond in three straight heats. Time 2:50. Messrs. O'Brien and F. Beede aoted as Starting Judges for the races and Messrs. J. P. Flanders and Jas. Rogers as Decid- ing Judges. A characteristic cf the meet was the abundance of fine horses upon the course. Noticeable among them was the promising four-year-old, "Daisy D." owned by Mr. J. O. DeKalb, of Ausable Forks. We trust that the Association will undertake anoth- er gathering in the near future. The Oldest mason in the Country. The distinction of being the oldest Mason in the country, acoording to the Rntland Herald, undoubtedly belongs to Judge John B. Hollenbeck of Burlington, Tt., who has jnst celebrated the ninety-sixth mniversary of his birth. He witnessed the battle of Plattsburgb, and a few years ago he was able to give many interesting local reminiscences in connection with the >ries of contests between the Americans and English on Lake Champlain. He is rapidly growing feebly and is not likely to survive long. o the W. M.

A happy home; Its hope and joy Was centered In a nocle boy, An only son, a manly youth. Trained In the righteous ways of truth. His childhood plays were guarded well; He strove, In college to excel, So, when life's duties be began, He bore this name,—'an honest man.' He sought In life a noble aim, Earning himself an honest name; Trusted, revered, the poor man's mend. With ready hand to give or lend. No blighting habits marred his health, But industry combined with wealth, In perfect union joiced to bless And crown his lire's work with success. Another home; an only child, On whom fair fortune's rays hath smiled, A happy boy so bright and gay, And later in hts college day, Hla gifted mind and talents rare. Gave promise to his prospects fair; And yet no aim in life he sought, For he had wealth enough, he thought. No honest labor had he done, Because he was a 'rich man'* son.' But in society's gay round, Where is too often danger found, Where oft is frivolous display, His youth's best years were passed away. Until, at last, wine's helpless slave, He filled the lowly drunkard's grave. That brightest boy in childhood's plays. That leader in his college days, By drink, when he became a man, Had blighted ev'ry cherished plan Had ruined health and brain and soul; Had spurned advise, lost self-control, And all because he ne'er could pass The 'poisonous pleasures' of the glass. VEBGENNBS, VT., Feb. 3, '88. LOCAL GORRESPONDESCE. CHA/Y. Installation of Grand Army Officers. —At the regular meeting of McFadden Post, G. A. R. held m tneir hall last Saturday evening, the officers elected some weeks ago were legally installed, under the command of J. M. Black- man, ot Mooers, amid quite a display ot cere- mony, which was veiy Interesting, especially to such invited guests as had never witnessed be- fore the performance of this their duty. Follow- ing these exercises Rev. p. j. H. Myers made a few very appropriate remarks, after which re- freshments of a high order were served to all present, and the Young People's Club Orchestra tarnished many fine pieces of music, and thus the evening's exercises were made very enjoy- able. We are more than delighted to see the Post in such good order as It is now, antl every member seems to have an unugual interest in its welfare, as do the community at large. The fol- lowing officers were Installed: Commander—Darius M. Gale. Senlor-Vice-Mlfflin Bullls. Senior vice-J. M. Calkins. Officer of the Day—Walter Jennett. Quartermaster—John E. Hyde. Adjutant—Henry MeCreedy. Surgeon—R. E. Hyde, M." D. Q. M. Sergeanfr-J. O. Servlse.- SergeantIrfajor-J. Fletcher Gilbert, —Tie Farmers' Club meeting was Thursday evening, in Academy Hall.

The club Is in good condition to do justice to the play an< make It a success. SABAIVAC. —ThP G A. R. Post's sumptuous oyster supper came off at Burnbam's Hall Friday evening last, and at the Post meeting on the following even- ing, a vote of thanks was extended to the citi- zens generally, and ladles In particular, for their very efficient services on that occasion, when two hundred guests were served to suppers, and some $100 was received. The net proceeds, no doubt, go toward paying for the elegant monu- ment contracted ror. The oyster supper com- mittee believed that from their engagement made with Harry Howard, the Drummer Boy, when here last, and subsequent engagement by correspondence, that they were warranted in an- nouncing his presence at the oyster supper, but DO doubt owing to the severe cold and storm at hat time, or for good reasons at present un- known to the committee, his entertaining pres- ence was missed on that occasion. —Mr. D. H. Parsons, one of the committee oh >rocurtng a soldiers' monument, recently took in ihe R. R. excursion to Washington, where he for- tunately fell in with several former residents and acquaintances from Plattsburgb, among whom was Geo. L, Clark, Esq., and mends, whom he met in the Capitol building. Our honorable representative, Mr. Moffltt, having left for the East the previous evening on leave of absence, he didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. He visited Alexander Holt, son of the late Jacob Holt, who was a former resident of Pittsburgh, but removed to Monmouth, where he died. Mr. 'arsons was fortunate in meeting "Sandy," as his father called him, and by which name he went by, for "he knew the ropes," having been Chief Clerk in the Internal Revenue Dep't. for 18 years, and is now practicing law in Washington. He escorted Mr. Parsons through the government buildings, winding up with a visit to President jieveiand. The then Grover c, but now Presi- dent, called on Mr. Parsons with the Hon. Smith m. weed before election in 1884, with whom the writer lunched at Mr. Parson's on that occasion. Hon. Jacob Holt will be remembered as a very affable and sociable gentleman of the old school. We had the honor of stopping with him for a few weeka as a boarder while he occupied his resi- dence Just above the first toll gate, now occupied by Mr. Thomas. Mr. Parsons, while on this ex- cursion, extended his trip to Bridgeport, Conn. He DelDg one of the committee on procuring a suitable soldiers' monument;, was Instructed by the committee to visit the White Bronze Monu- ment Company, at Bridgeport, and If he could make satisfactory terms tor a monument with the company to do so, which he did. After his charactertsic thorough investigation of the mat- ter, he contracted with the company to deliver to the monument committee an elegant white bronze monument, to be delivered here before May 30th, 1888, valued at $1600, which Is to be placed in Independence Cemetery, Saranac, to commemorate tne services of those who have irone into the service of the United States in the War of the Rebellion to the number of some 500, and who have done service In the defense of our country in other wars. —Mrs. James Muzzy was for several weeks con- sidered dangerously sick, but is now amending. —Rev.

One of the Old Settlers.Among the first settlers of the now flour-

ishing city of Grand Bapids, Mioh., wereMr. and Mrs. Willard Sibley, who removedthere from Peru, Clinton County, N. Y.> in1834.

Mr. Sibley's occupation, after his settle-ment in the West, was that of a river boat-man, first managing a pole boat betweenthe rapids and the mouth of Grand Biver.

.s soon as steamboats appeared upon theriver, Mr. Sibley was placed in oharge as

iptain, and continued in that oapacity un-til failing health compelled him to relin-quish its labors and responsibilities.

A daughter, Sarah, married Mr. A. B.Turner, editor of the Grand Bapids Eagle.

The above portrait having appeared inthe columns of Mr. Turner's paper, we arepermitted to place it before our readers,thinking that the older people of Peru andSohuyler Falls will be interested to see it.She was born in Peru in 1803. She was awoman of great energy and perseveranoe,but modest, unassuming and retiring inher manners.

Trapped at B i s Own Game.Some weeks ago the papers printed what

was alleged to be the Canadian way oftrapping the pesky English sparrows, andone of the sorrowful results of that act istold by a Sandy Hill correspondent of theFort Edward Clipper, as follows :

A hater of sparrows, just outside ourcorporate limits, read in a Glens Fallsp iper that the birds could easily be caughttoy feeding them bread soaked in liquor.He thought he would investigate the mat-ter and bought a pint in which he soakedbread. He just happened to taste of thepreparation, and he liked it. Then hebrushed the crumbs from his whiBkers toobfterve their effect upon the pests. Hesaid to himself: "Bread is the staff oflife, and so ia whisky. Combine the twoand yon hare staff, crutch and all." Mean-while he kept on eating. Only one pairof the lone-born sparrows assisted him inthe feast, but they, in his vision, in-creased until the enow was fairly coveredwith them, he thought. Then the flockbegan to get ''tight," he surmised, and heeonoladed to watch them until they, tippedover. Just then his dog came along andhe rubbed his eyes in astonishment andsaid: "Hello, Tip! By Jove, there are twoof you!" His wife, observing him munch-ing what was left of the loaf, opened thedoor and asked him "what under the sunbe was doing!" "Washin' the birds," hesaid; "don't you see how they double up—birds and dogs ?" At this point his wifedrew him into the kitchen," doubled himnp in a chair behind the stove, whereatthis husband whom she had addressed as aduck during their oourtship, looked in astate of bewilderment at her and said:"My-dear-you'r-as-drunk-as-the-sparrows."

A raetbodiHt Minister's Good Fortune,About a year ago the Bey. S. M. William;

moved to North Adams, Mass., from Cam-bridge, 'Washington oonnty. With his fam-ily was an old lady, Mrs. Mary J. Mooney,who was supposed to be dependent on Mr.Williams' bounty. Last week Tuesday sh(died suddenly of heart disease, aged 72years. It is now stated that she left Mr.Williams $60,000 unconditionally. Whenthe old lady's husband died Mr. Williamssettled the estate, and she asked that shemight make her home with him. She gavehiax $15,000, with which he is now build-ing a blook in Troy. She bas now left himthe blook in Troy, a large farm in CentralNew York, and $10,000 in cash.

From the Essex Co. Republican.Fern Lake Trotting.

The quiet borders of Fern Lake, AusableForks, witnessed an unusual sight on Fri-day and Saturday of last week. It was theassemblage of some five hundred people towitness the races of the Ausable ' ForksTrotting Association, at their annual meet,which if not entirely successful as far cfast trotting was concerned was certainlyvery pleasant occasion toali who attended,At noon of each of the day's racing, teamsbegan wending their way toward the plaoof rendezvous and at 2:30, when the raoeswere called, the shining surface of thelake presented an animating scene. Twiraces were booked for Friday and the samefor Saturday, but owing to lack of entriesonly the named race was trotted on Fridayand the free-for-all on Saturday.

In the first of these there were two en-tries, "Quebec Boy," owned by E. S.Kemp, and "Bay Dan" and the latter,owned by Israel Bigelow, easily provedthe fastest horse. In the free-for-all, Sat-urday, there appeared to be prospect ofcloser race. Three horses were entered,'Peddler," owned by E. S. Kemp; "Ben

B.,uowned by Wm. Harper, and "ChasmMaid," owned by Horace Page. Keesevillsucceeded in taking first and second "BenB." easily leading and "Chasm Maid" sec-ond in three straight heats. Time 2:50.Messrs. O'Brien and F. Beede aoted asStarting Judges for the races and Messrs.J. P. Flanders and Jas. Rogers as Decid-ing Judges.

A characteristic cf the meet was theabundance of fine horses upon the course.Noticeable among them was the promisingfour-year-old, "Daisy D." owned by Mr.J. O. DeKalb, of Ausable Forks. We trustthat the Association will undertake anoth-er gathering in the near future.

The Oldest mason in the Country.The distinction of being the oldest

Mason in the country, acoording to theRntland Herald, undoubtedly belongs toJudge John B. Hollenbeck of Burlington,Tt., who has jnst celebrated the ninety-sixthmniversary of his birth. He witnessedthe battle of Plattsburgb, and a few yearsago he was able to give many interestinglocal reminiscences in connection with the

>ries of contests between the Americansand English on Lake Champlain. He israpidly growing feebly and is not likelyto survive long.

TWO P I C T U R E S .I T ANNA M. BOTSFORD.

A happy home; Its hope and joyWas centered In a nocle boy,An only son, a manly youth.Trained In the righteous ways of truth.His childhood plays were guarded well;He strove, In college to excel,So, when life's duties be began,He bore this name,—'an honest man.'

He sought In life a noble aim,Earning himself an honest name;Trusted, revered, the poor man's mend.With ready hand to give or lend.No blighting habits marred his health,But industry combined with wealth,In perfect union joiced to blessAnd crown his lire's work with success.

Another home; an only child,On whom fair fortune's rays hath smiled,A happy boy so bright and gay,And later in hts college day,Hla gifted mind and talents rare.Gave promise to his prospects fair;And yet no aim in life he sought,For he had wealth enough, he thought.

No honest labor had he done,Because he was a 'rich man'* son.'But in society's gay round,Where is too often danger found,Where oft is frivolous display,His youth's best years were passed away.Until, at last, wine's helpless slave,He filled the lowly drunkard's grave.

That brightest boy in childhood's plays.That leader in his college days,By drink, when he became a man,Had blighted ev'ry cherished planHad ruined health and brain and soul;Had spurned advise, lost self-control,And all because he ne'er could passThe 'poisonous pleasures' of the glass.

Follow-ing these exercises Rev. p. j . H. Myers made afew very appropriate remarks, after which re-freshments of a high order were served to allpresent, and the Young People's Club Orchestratarnished many fine pieces of music, and thusthe evening's exercises were made very enjoy-able. We are more than delighted to see thePost in such good order as It is now, antl everymember seems to have an unugual interest in itswelfare, as do the community at large. The fol-lowing officers were Installed:

The net proceeds, nodoubt, go toward paying for the elegant monu-ment contracted ror. The oyster supper com-mittee believed that from their engagementmade with Harry Howard, the Drummer Boy,when here last, and subsequent engagement bycorrespondence, that they were warranted in an-nouncing his presence at the oyster supper, butDO doubt owing to the severe cold and storm athat time, or for good reasons at present un-

known to the committee, his entertaining pres-ence was missed on that occasion.
