Dr. John Faust, the well known vet erlnsry surgeon, expired at o'clock Wednesday afternoon, at his home on Union. Street, after a long Illness. The end waa not unexpected.

When ths end came he was surrounded by the members of his family thst were In town. Two were sbsent Dr. Fred. A. Fsust, of Colorado Springs, and Dr.

Louis Faust, of Schenectady, who arrived In town last night. Dr. Faust's death may be said to be the Indirect 'result of Injuries which he received in the railroad accident at, the switch In this city ten yesrs'sgo this fall His spine was injured, and since then, although at one time he had apparently nearly recovered, he haa suffered more or less. A year ago last spring he began to fall perceptibly, paralysis setting In. About two months ago he took to his bed, end then his decline waa rapid to the and.

Dr. Fauat was born In Hesaen Cassel, Germany, July 1, 1835, the home of his family for many generations. After racer lng a good education In the schools of his native place, he decided to come to America, where, to use his own words, he could "secure a bigger piece of bread;" 6r, In other words.there were better opportunities here. He landed In New York City August U. 1851.

and learned the cooper's trade, which he followed until 1M, when he, with hla brothers, Toblae and Otto, came to Poughkeepsle. In 18M they stsrted in business, under ths firm name of, John Faust A Bros, The partnership die soiled In UTS. Dr. Fsust then took up the study of veterinary surgery, and In 1SS1 he went before the examining board of the New York Veterinary Society, and paaaed the examination, re ceh lng the degree of V. 8.

He at once took a prominent position as a surgeon, and for many yeara he was an authority on diseases, of the horse. He did much to elevate the profession by his scientific researches. A number of valuable treaties give evidence of hla learning and ability, among them an essay on hernia, read before the N. Y. State Veterinary Society! One on the "History of Contagious and Infectious Diseases, Ancient, Mediaeval and Modem," and one read In ISM on "Practical Part on Tuberculosis." He also prepared an article on the "Darwinian Theory" for the Medical Record, In reply to Prof.

BoJenhomer, of New Torkj The doctor haa also been engaged writing a work on "Homeopathlo Practice on Domestlo Animals." Ha waa a leading" member of the U. 8.

The doctor enjoyed a large practice, and hla services were sought for far and near.

Fred. A. Faust, of Colorado Springs, Col.) Dr. Otto Faust. Veterinary surgeon, of Poughkeepsle; Dr.

Dr. Faust was a staunch Republican, a public spirited and useful cltl sen, and Interested In the Improve, merit of the city. He waa socially a pleasant person to meet, and enjoyed the respect and confidence of the people of the city.

He never ran for office. The only public position he ever held was that of member of the board of health, and which he occupied at the time of hla death. lie waa also a mem. ber of the Knights of Pythias. He waa one of the moet prominent aupporters of the German M.

E. Church, In which he has been Sunday School superintendent for many years. In bis church and In the circles In which he moved he will be creatly missed, and In his profession his death has caused a loss which will be difficult to repair.

There are people home new as deeply Interested In the city aa those here but for some reasona cannot get here. Mr. A. Harris thought that If new material was used In the old structure the old Board of Trade would do. I think that If the dues were made quarterly we would get more members.

He suggested names for aa advertising committee, Mr.

Piatt said that much could be done by auch a committee without spending much money. For he had found that one large concern la sending ouf Its goods without any mention of the (act that they are made In Poughkeepsle. He thought mere ly an oversight, and bellered they, would gladly add the name of the city If they were aaked by the committee to do so. Then we should spend some money. Saratogta spends M.000 from' the city treasury In ade alng the place.

Mr. Heermance thought any propost" lion ss to advertising should be post poned until a larger memtterahip had been obtained. We ought easily to get, MO.
