HAND BLOWN OFF.
Howard Curtis of East Barre
Injured BY An Explosion
This Noon.

Another explosion occurred at the
quarries this noon, but luckily no one
was killed. The victim was Howard
Curtis of East Barre, who is employed
at G f Tayntor e. Co.'s quarries, who had
his right hand blown off by an explosion
of dynamite.
inst before noon today some Of the
employees drilled hole in u ledge of
rock and put in dynamite. The fuse
was lighted but failed to explode.
About 12.45, without instruction from
the foreman and without the knowledge
of any of the employees, Curtis began
digging out the hole on his own re-
sponsibility. He had not been at work
very long before a loud explosion was
heard. One OF the employees noticed
what had happened and rushed to
Curtis assistance.
The hand was nearly severed from
the arm hanging only by a few pieces
of skin, 1t bled quite freely but he
seemed to suffer very little from the
accident. His hand was bandaged up
and he was driven to his home in East
Barre by Alfred Graves and Randall Me
Donald.
Curtis is man about So years old
and has been employed on the Tayntor
quarries since last winter. He came to
East Barre from Maine.

Insurgents and Americans
Clash.

New York, Aug. 25.-A special DIS
match from Cavite to the Journal says
that their has been sort OF clash oe-
twe een some of the United States soldiers
and the Insurgents.
There was big riot which resulted
in the killing of one American solo'er
and the serious wounding of another
The whole trouble arose from a "''-
,,,. between the soldiers and native
.,onlo.ner rs to the sale of an article
at his store.
The affair does not amount 10 very
much from an international STANDPOINT
vet it shows quite plainly the general
sentiment amongst the insurgents IN re-
GARD to the presence Of the Americans
which they still consider offensive, a.
though they do not retain quite as 0'.'el m
hostile feeling as they did few
weeks ago.
The origin of the fracas was Ve'9
, ,,;v;o, Int involved enough OF par'l'
san feeling to create great olS'uro'
ance.

cAMPsNorEs.

Camp Olympia.S Aug. 2G.-Every-
body is happy here except those seri-
ously i'll and evensthey seem to be in
spired by feeling of content and joy
at being once mores safely quartered be-
meath the shade Of Me green mountains,
where there is water to drink and
friends to care for thom and nurse them
back to health.
The principal amusement among the
we'll ones is to placr mattresses in the
company streets and hold sort of aero
batic circus in whfeh feats of an aero
battle nature are ndulged in.
No one is worrying about drill as yet
and those who are left in the camp have
been given much needed rest since the
work of settling has been completed.
The sick men in the hospital are all
doing as we'll as could be expected.
William Rust of Company f is consid-
cred to be slowly on the gain as are
also Thompson and Fish. Fish will
probably be in his present condition
without much change for many weeks
but the physicians consider that in time
he will recover.
The preliminary work of mastering
the men out OF service has already be
gun by Major Jocelyn who is getting
the records in shape. The probability
is that it will take fully three weeks be-
fore the regiment will once more don
the citizens costume.
1t is expected that there will be a
grand review of the regiment next
Wednesday. The day will be the great
est since the civil war. There have
been pageants and military professions
and annual muster reviews, but there
has not been since the strife of the go
a return and mastering out OF Yer
mont regiment. The Montpelier Mill
tary band will probably be the regimen
tai band to furnish music for the occa-
sion.

Gov. Black makes a Demand

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 26-Governor
Black went to Washington this morning
to confer with the President in regard
to the conditions of the New York regi-
ments in the various camps. He will
ask that all be sent north at once and
discharged.
This visit is due to the report of Sur
geon Gen. Terry in regard to the con
diton of the New York soldiers at Camp
Thomas. The report is said to portray
such q frightful picture that Gov. Black
is afraid to make it public.
DIR. Terry says that the quarters Of
the 9Th New York present the most hor-
riblc sight he ever Witnessed.
Puddles of dirty water throughout the
camp send up foul vaporsand the stencil
is reported to be almost unbearable.
Not only this but proper food is not sup
piled to tho sick. They arc forced to
eat provisions at which the stomach OF a
tramp would rebel.
II is to the water that the surgeon
general attributes most of the sickness.
No self respecting person, he declared,
would use it for washing purposes. ct
the New Workers and regiments from
other states as well, are forced to qnench
their thirst by this nauseating liquid.
