It's very wrong TO "revive memories OF

1t must have been surprise to those
Rutland people who visit Fort Cassin every
summer to see long account of the place
with the historical associations "written
up" in first-class STYLE and the statement

To our positive knowledge there isn't an
island within two miles of the Fort Cassin
house large enough to hold that hotel.
There was quite breaking up of the
liquor saloons on Center street, Monday.
Kelley was fined $500 and Mahar was
compelled to leave his place. During the

not found anything; see here" The pro-
prietor then produced $50 to speak
manikin of tin, made to wear under the
vest, with places for cords TO go over the
shoulders and around the body, and made
hollow to hold about gallon of the ar
dent. With this armor buckled firmly on,
Mahar has smilingly shown officers with
search warrants through his place.
