H. D. Hoi ton, who was called to Hardwick Tuesday as a member of the state board of health on account of the renewal of the small pox scare in that town, went to Hardwick again last night for further consideration of the matter with the other members of the board of health. The facts concerning the prevalence of the disease in Hardwick and other towns are given on another page in this paper. Dr.

Holton says the disease is different in many respects from cases of small pox which have heretofore appeared in the United States, and it is in very mild form. There have been over 600 cases in Quebec during the past few months, but there has been no death. A general order has been issued this week by the post-office department requiring the carriers po all of the free rural delivery routes to carry canceling stamps by which they can cancel the postage stamps on certain letters collected on the routes. The object of the new order Is mainly to facilitate correspondence between patrons living in the territory covered by the routes. For Instance, nnder the former regulations If a person in Guilford Centre mailed a letter to a person In Guilford the letter would have to be brought to the main office in Brattleboro to be canceled and then carried back to Guilford, necessitating a delay in its delivery.

Under the new regulation the carrier will cancel inch letters and deliver them on the same trip. gage. This mortgage was executed two years after a mortgage to H. P. Smljth, but there bad been so many changes In the stock that It amounted practically to a first mortgage.
