NO COOPERATION
Aloha Alma Will Not Join
With Portuguese.
Invitation to Have Union Mass
Meeting Declined.

The invitation of the Portuguese
Union to the Aloha Alma Society to
join in a grand mass-meeting demon
stration against Japanese immigration
has been declined by the latter body.
The invitation was submitted to Mr..
]. X. Kaulia, president of the Aloha
Alma, by Mr.. J. NJ. Vivas, president Of
the union. Mr.. Kaulia turned il over
to his Executive Committee, and that
body drafted the decision not to CO.
operate with the Portuguese.
The idea of the union was to hold the
meeting under the auspices of both the
organizations. A resolution protesting
against the further Importation of jap
anese for labor purposes, and also pc
titioning the Government to take such
steps as would check free immigration.
endorsed by both societies, was the
purpose. The leaders of the union felt
that the endorsement of the prominent
native society would add weight TO tie
memorial
Speaking of the matter last night,
Mr.. Kaulia said:
We refused to cooperate with the
Portuguese because we see no way of
checking japanese immigration, save
by annexation TO the United States.
Annexation is contrary TO our POLICY,
and we must decline to assist in any
measure calculated to bring it about.
Of course, We realize the gravity of the
situation with respect to the Japanese.
But what are We to do? What is the
Government to do? The Government is
powerless in the matter. japanese i'm
migration can be checked only by
breaking the existing treaty with jap
an. The power that does this must be
strong enough to take the conse-
qGences.

Death Of Guy Estey.

Guy Carpenter Estey, 16 years old,
Youngest son Of General and Mrs. ]. ].
Estey of Brattieboro died last week
Thursday of spinal meningitis after an
illness OF ten days. He was a student at
the Vermont academy and accompanied
his parents on the recent trip with the
Vermont party to the Nashville exposi-
ton. The funeral was held Saturday at
2.3O o'clock. From child Guy was del
icate in health but he grew strong until
when 9 years old he lost hand by the
premature explosion of cartridge while
celebrating the result OF political con-
test. The shock debilitated his system
and the next tall there developed tuber-
culous trouble in one knee from which he
never recovered, and which permanently
crippled him. Despite these physical de-
tects he was leader among the boys in
all the physical feats within his reach. In
studies he was fully abreast of the stu
dents OF his age. Not only in his own
home but among all his friends he was
held in peculiar and admiring affection.

Misappropriated the Money.-lsaac
Frazer was lodged in the Jail here on the
Sd day of August for embezzling SIS from
Hall & Stanley. few days after, about
August 10, one Spinney, taking pity on
Frazer and thinking that he ought once
more to enjoy pardon before the court
might decide that he should be shut up
for a certain length of time. went to
Frazer's aunt in Fairbanks village and
obtained of her $3.50, saying that he
would get $3.50 more of Fred Gilman and
bail her nephew out OF jail, $500 being
the sum required. The aunt recognizing
in Spinney neighbor and friend both
to herself and her nephew. let him have
the $3.50. Somebody was holding a
mortgage on Spinney's furniture and
when he saw $3.50 in his hand his mind
evidently wandered from his friend Frazer
and strayed to the mortgage, towards
paying which the money obtained from
the aunt was used Her nephew not
showing up as expected, the aunt was
worried and tortured Spinney with ques-
tions, who replied that he would look up
the matter at once. But he delayed
looking it mp too long, for Saturday
Sheriff Sulloway heard of the affair and
Mr.. Spnney was arrested. The matter
was subsequently settled by Spinney's
father.in-law paying back the $3.50, but
the prisoner was given to understand
that it wouldn't do to bail any more
friends out of Jail on the same plan.

dren, had boarded for several months in
a house where there were Academy stu
dents. On Tuesday, Nov. o, one of these
small children developed diphtheria.
The cause was undoubtedly dne to the
fact that the child's father had been
brought into contact with the disease or
its source, in the course Of his business,
as the general conditions plainly indi-
Gated.
Prompt action was taken, and, the
next forenoon, this family of four Gather,
mother and two children) was removed
to honse kindly appropriated by its
guardians for this purpose. Here one
child and it's father were sick and to this
house was moved one of the students,
who later developed symptoms of diph-
theria This is the pest house" to
which victims are taken" No students
of the Academy, outside this original
household, have had the diphtheria.
1.-THE students OF the Academy have
been more or less panic-stricken."
Not one of them, so far as have been
able to ascertain, has been alarmed. l
made the offer, before tine entire school,
| to excuse any student who felt thus
alarmed, and no candidates appeared.
One young lady, who had Just come
from her home (outside OF St. Johnsbury)
lived in house where small child was
suffering from sore throat Ia case of
simple cold, as was evident from the out
set). This young lady had been sick tor
several weeks, at her home, and as she
seemed to feel little nervous, | at once
advised her to go home and to remain
there until she felt stronger.
AS to "panic stricken" parents,-the
"some students" who had received "tele-
grams from their parents requesting that
they come home Immediately" were two
in number and told them that would
write at once, as | did, and the parents
were entirely reassured.
The students were so sensible in their
conduct, as were their parents, that in
formed the school that their Thanksgiv-
ing recess would be made day longer
than usual, as a reward for their COM
mon sense.
They have been informed, every few
days, as to the exact situation, and not
the slightest attempt has been made, on
my part or that "of the authorities, to
keep them ignorant Of the true state OF
affairs"
| have written this in the interest OF
common courtesy, fairness, and truth,
which take for granted you will recog-
nize and apply to the correction OF the
uncalled-for Misrepresentation of your
reporter.
Very truly yours,

ing pleasant notice of Col. Fletcher's re-
cent birthday;
"Col. Frederick Fletcher OF st. Johns
bury, formerly of Burlington, and well
and pleasantly known here, celebrates his
93rd birthday tomorrow, with mental
and physical faculties unimpaired, and
with general bearing that would enable

two-thirds his years.

business in Jericho, in partnership with
his brother, Thaddeus r. Fletcher, whose
daughter was the munifcent founder of
the Mary Fletcher hospital and the

most prominent citizens. He was long
president Of the old Farmers and Me-
chanics' bank and took an active and in
fluential part in the affairs of the COM
muuity. About thirty years ago he re-
moved to st. Johnsbury.
"His Burlington friends will congratu-
late him on his 93d anniversary and will
cordially hope that he may round out his
century Of life."

Two Fires.-A very slight fire on Elm
street, in Summervlle, called out the fire
department at 1890 a. M, Saturday.
The fire was put out with few pals Of
water.
What might have been a serious fire
started in the Stanley opera house about
10 O'Clock Monday evening. The fire
caught from stove in the rear of the
hall and before the department had ar
rived all the stage scenery and the north
end OF the root was destroyed. All the
hose companies responded to the alarm
and the flames were quenched by lib
eral supply of water. Little damage was
done to the laundry or Frank Hills paint
shop and water did more damage than
anything else. c. A. Stanley carried an
insurance of $4,000 on the property
through the various local agents and es-
Inmates his loss at about $1,000. The
building will be quickly repaired for oc-
cupancy by the St. Iohnsbury Guards.

Mile Rhea in CamiIIe.-A St. Johns

MILE knea IN (amllle.-A st. johns
bury audience never listened to more
charming and talented actress than M lie
Rhea, who was at the Howe Opera
House Monday evening in Camille. I"
1t was much to be regretted that the
audience was so small, as better theat-
rical company, every member being an
artist, was probably never seen in this
town. Rhea took the part Of Camille,
and though it is one of the most difficult
parts to successfully carry out, she did it
perfectly, frequently moving the audience
to tears, so truly did she interpret the
emotional parts of the play. Her charm
ing personality wins the hearts OF her
audience and she was frequently called
before the curtain by the applause. The
next prominent character in the play is
Armand Duval, Camille's devoted lover,
and Lauren Rees carries this part out
perfectly. He is strong actor These
two were admirably supported by the
rest of the company. There is some talk
OF return date for the company here in
"Frou Frou," and il this is done Mile
Rhea and her excellent company should
be greeted by large audience.
