Capt. Dyer has received notification
from the commanding officer of the YER
mont regiment that the date of muster
ing out Company A has again been chang
ed to the third Of November. 1t is ex-
pected that the officers who are to make
the physical examinations will reach Rut-
land in about a week. The ration allow
ance which rs 50 l-3 cents day, was dis
continued October 1. but the government
WILL by special arrangement, feed such
men as are in need.
The board for the abatement of taxes
have refused to abate the back taxes on
the city hospital. 1t appears that these
are taxes for 1895 and 1896, when the prop
erty was owned by Charles II. Sheldon.
The city has already voted $1,000 for the
use of the hospital and 1t is the opinion
of the city attorney that these back taxes
cannot be legally abated.
Mrs. Edwin Burditt of Wallin gford went
TO Shrewsbury the other day to hunt deer
and while sitting down to rest she heard
a cracking of underbrush and later a large
black bear made his appearance on the
scene. Nothing daunted, Mrs. Burditt
took aim at fired at bruin. The first shot
took effect but it required one more to
finish HIM. The bear weighed 1870 pounds
and ii Is safe to say that Mrs. Burditt's
skill as u marksman is not found every
day among the gentler sex,

WASHINGTON COUNTY.
MONTPELIER.

There Is movement on foot to accom-
plsh the annexation of the town of Ber-
lin to the city of Montpelier and meetings
to propagate the interest have been insti-
tuted, The first meeting was held In the
office of j. G.. Brown Thursday evening
and was well attended. A committee COM
prised of the following named gentlemen
was elected: w. f.. Adams, j. q. Brown,
n. J. Deavitt, Albert Jononnott, George
l.. Blanchard and c. Deli. Bancroft of this
city and j. q, Scrbner, Oliver WheeoCk,
G. &. Roberts Edward Fallon and John
Fallon OF Berlin side. Although 80 per
cent. of the citizens OF the town of Berlin
are In favor OF annexation It Is presume;
that there may yet be some obstacles.
OF course Montpelier wants the town OF
Berlin to become a part and parcel of
her municipality but whether or not 1t
would be helpful for the burg across the
river is the question that the latter is
seriously contemplating.
The work of surveying the town of
Berlin preparatory to making the neces-
sary move for annexation was begun Mon
day BY Joel Foster, who is assisted In
the work by Sheriff Bancroft. Conce rnlng
the question of anneXing the town Of Ec,-
lin to the city of Montpelier, there is a
deal of comment. The anneXationists on
the Berlin eide predict all sort of roseN tie
things for the town II it comes into the
fold, while the opposition paint different
pictures
The poles that are to be set between
this city and Bolton Falls have been pur-
chased from Maine and Canada rites
and will be set as soon as they arrive.
The work of building the dam at the fails
is progressing as rapidly as could be GX-
pected and 1t Is probable that 1t will be
erected within the contract time,
