Barre, July 19.-The local dramatic
club, which presented the play, "All
the comforts of home" last week, will
repeat the performance Friday even
ing, the proceeds to be given to the
Village Improvement Society.
S. B. Smith, who is extensively en-
gagged in numbering, has purchased all
Carlo and Emery Rice farm, about
three miles from the village, a tract
covering nearly $50 acres and extend
ing into Hnbbardston. He will imme-
diately place a steam saw mill on the
premises. It is estimated that there
are more than two million feet of lum-
Der on the farm, and four years are all
lowed for its removal. Mr.. Smith is
cutting off the lumber on a tract in
New Salem Of about the same size, and
has recently cleared a heavy lot of
about so acres near his last purchase

better than any of the several bug
claimants that have been put forward
here. DIR. George l.. Tobey, who is
medical examiner, says that in his opin-
ion the kissing bug is a myth. His
opinion is shared by other people in
this town, who think that a smart
country correspondent for one of the
| New York newspapers wrote a fake
story of which an alleged kissing bug
was the theme. Once the story was
started, every fellow who had a swollen
| lip, as the result of the secret bite of
a mosquito, rushed to the conclusion
| that he had been dealing with kiss
| ing bug. Hence the storm of yarns
about an insect with a weakness for
OSCILLATION. So great has the popular
belief in a bug that prefers lips be-
| come, that only few days ago a man
came to DR.. Fobey with swollen arm,
| which he sought to add to the list Of
sins already charged against the kiss
| ing bug.
The swelling was the result of a mos
| quito or flea bite on the wrist
A question much in argument here re-
| lates to Boston and the base ball pen
nant. The cranks can't decide whether
| Boston can win without Billy Hamilton.
| They know that Bostons chances are
much better with Hamilton playing
| than ~ will be If he is out of the
game. But can Boston pull through
without him? The weight of opinion is
| in the negative. Hemiltons leg, as his
| friends here know, continues to make
him much trouble although he keeps it
tightly bandaged in the neighborhood
of the injury, and takes all possible
care Of it.
The physician VINO is attending Ham
ilton says that the trouble is dislo-
cation OF the left internal semi-lunar
cartilage Of the knee joint. The cartil-
age has acquired a nasty habit of not
staying where it bel, ngs and it makes
Clinton's champion ball player lots of
| trouble. Hamilton can run straight
away all right but 1t is difficult for him
| to twist about in running bases.
Three children az home" with his
sister, in Worcester, was the hard luck
story Michael McGill told the court this
morning.
IF you'll let me go this time, your
honor I'll never come back any more"
said McGilI. Indeed l won't. Sure,
| just saw an advertisement in the paper
| for fellow to work and I came over
here to get It, Just a glass Of beer or
so while 1 was waiting did the busi-
ness"
But the police had seen McGiH on the
street drunk too many times. They had
pushed him into retired neighborhoods
until their patience was exhausted
| When they found him in a yard on
Union street yesterday they brought
| him in. The three children must wait
eight days for their father. He couldn't
find the IS the court assessed him for
the fun he has had.

A DEMOCRATIC EXPANsIONIsT.

Boston, June 21.-Mr. John Barrett,
United States minister to Siam during
the Cleveland administration, spoke
before the Boston chamber of COM
merce yesterday afternoon regarding
the Philippines and the extension of the
United States trade in the far east.
He said in part:
eff we fail to hold the Philippines
and to protect our rights of trade
throughout the far east, the United
States will not only become a secon-
dairy power in the great Pacific, where
by natural position and the hand of
God, we are intended to be forever
first, but the Pacific coast states will
experience the most destructive blow to
their progress and prosperity that could
possibly be given them.

OF WATER.

Among the laws passed by the last
legislative assembly of Montana, was
one relating to the measurement OF
water, by which the cubic foot is made
the legal standard. The law reads as
follows:
Section /. Hereafter a cubic foot Of
water (7.4S gallons) per second of time
shall be legal standard for the measure
ment of water in this state.
Section 2. Where water rights ex-
pressed in miners inches have been
granted, one hundred miners inches
shall be considered equivalent to a flow
Of two and one half cubic feet (18. z
gallons) per second; two hundred
miners inches shall be considered
equivalent to a flow of five cubic feet
1914 gallons) per second, and this pro-
portion shall be observed in determining
the equivalent flow represented by any
number of miners inches.
Section 3. Provided. that the pro-
visions of this hill shall not affect or
change the measurement of water here
tofore decreed by a court, but such de-
creed waters shall be measured accord
ing to the law in force at the time such
decree was made and entered.

SCARCITY OF COPPER,

Some days ago we published an inter
view with Senator ". A. Clark of Mon
tana, in which he referred to the great
scarcity of copper throughout the world.
The inauguration of the trolly system
for street car propulsion has made the
demand for copper of very great pre-
portions. The visible supply is stated
to be lower than ever before known. In
other words, as Mr.. eClark put it, ten
days ago, there was at that time, "only
about Is days supply" Since then the
demand for copper has continued as
great as before while the visible supply
has been decreasing. Today the actual
scarcity is becoming apparent in tele-
graph and telephone circles and the
matter is causing alarm, to say the
least. The question is with the tele-
graph and telephone companies as to
where to get copper at once, The copper
mines are being worked to their utmost
capacity and yet cannot give the supply
wanted. Some of the lrading companies
have been carrying on experiments for a
long time with aluminium, but the cost
of the metal is too great for practical
bility. The men who are compelled to
use copper realize how absolutely under
C 'ntrol of the leading copper companies
they are for theil material and they
have, therefore, BECOME more interested
than ever in the copper combination
and it's purposes.-Boston News
Bureau.

Killed BY An Electric Wire.

The Washington Star gives the fol-
lowing account Of the death Of a son of
Mr.. Douglass Shaner and grandson Of
Mr.. A. J. Shaner, formerly of Shep-
herdstown
Abraham J. Shaner, aged nineteen
years, whose home was with his parents
at No. 700 Sheridan avenue northwest,
was instantly killed Monday evening
while witnessing the Dewey parade
from the roof of the house No. 1923
Pennsylvania avenue northwest, where
the unfortunate man was employed.
The story Of the occurrence was told
to the police authorities by George Ry-
an, an intimate friend of the deceased,
who stated that he and Shaner, with
two lady friends, went to the roof OF
the building to witness the parade.
After being on the roof short time
Shaner took hold of live electric light
wire which passed over the roof and
received a shock which resulted in al
most instant death. Ryan raised an
immediate alarm and ran for an am
bulance, finding that belonging to the
Freedmen's Hospital about a square
away. Although it was evident when
Shaner was put in the ambulance that
he was dead, every effort was made to
resuscitate him without effect. The
body was removed to the morgue,
where it was kept until this morning,
when it was taken to the home Of the
young mans parents.
