WEST RANDOLPH.
THURSDAY, AUG. 20. 1891.

There is strong talk OF organizing a stock
company to build large summer hotel
near this village, to cost completed from
S25, 900 to $4,000. AT last accounts more
three fourths of the stock had been pledg-
ed.
It is quite probable that our people will
soon have an opportunity to take stock In
a shoe company to be located here. Sever
al of our business men have the scheme IN
hand and public meeting will be called
at an early date. 1t is safe to say such an
enterprise would be as likely to pay here
as at So. Royalton where one was organ
lied less than a year ago and is already
grand success, paying over 10 per cent per
annum in dividends to stockholders.
The West Randolph Graded School win
open two weeks from next Monday with
Substantially the same board OF teachers

the state and then Tor some time in Bel
laire, Idaho, where she had excellent sue
cess. There is already large demand for
board and rooms and every indication that
the next term will be the fullest in the his
tory of the school.

A case in the Berlin police court reports
Is remarkable Instance Of the cOntagion
of example. The stories of brigauds which
have lately filed the German newspapers
seem to have acted on the imagination of
two boys named Oscar Schetfner and
George May They determined to become
bandits, and they prevailed on several of
their school fellows to join them The
average age of the baud was thirteen.
They inaugurated their defiance of the law
by boldly playing truaut, and then they
took refuge in the wilds of the Grunewald.
where, in true brigand fashion, they hid
themselves.
After night passed in this fashion they
felt the paugs of hunger, and consequently
they sailed forth at an early hour and
seized the milk cans and baskets of new
rolls which had been left at the doors of
the neighboring villas. This, however,
they thought was scarcely heroic, and their
next step was to garrote an old gentleman
who was taking morning stroll in the
park. Somehow the Berlin police got
wind of the affair, and the juvenile bandits
were seized. They are cow languishing in
grewsome dungeons, where, by means OF a
cane administered at intervals. it is hoped
that they may be made aware of the his
toric fact that in northern Europe brigaud-
age = an anaChrOnlsm.
