w. j. TIigman of the Eclat Granite
Co. of this city has arrived at Denver,
Col, where he will locate a retail
business and also the manufacturing
of monuments in Colorado granite.
He will also handle all kinds of east
ern GRANTEES. Mr.. IIigman is a popu-
lar man in the monumental and build
ing line and very conversant in the
arts. He is also energetic and iudic-
iOuS in his business tactics, which will
guarantee his success. We have every
reason to believe that he will advocate

ga Lions Heart" the great scenic
melodrama of the season, will be pro-
duced at the Barre opera house Dec.
9th. in all it's captivating complete
ness and on a scale Of magnitude SUI
perior to any melodrama that has
been seen for years. The play tells
an intensely thrilling story of the con-
hict between villany and virtue. The
audience never takes it's attention
from the stage and at times is held
spellbound. There is an ample am
cunt of comedy running through the
several scenes, which brightenS the
more emotional and sensational parts.
Mr.. Carl A. Haswin, as Pierre Ricardo,
has a part that fits him well. He is
ably supported.
Dewey's reception, as presented by
the DOnOvan's, achieved instant sue
cess in it's infancy and has grown
steadily in it's popularity. The pub
lie has shown it's appreciation of the
merits of the comedy and it's mirth
provoking qualities by extending it's
patronage and crowding the theatres
wherever presented. Standing room
only is no uncommon greeting to,those
who apply for seats later than Sp. M,
and those DESTROYS of attending will
consult their own interests by secur-
ing tickets at their earliest con-
venience at Red Cross pharmacy.
Prices have been placed at 20, 80, 80
and Is, with no extra charge for rescr-
vations, which means practically,
wholesale fun at retail prices and truly
a great bargain in mirth, melody and
music. The reception will take place
at Barre opera house Thanksgiving
day and evening.

DREYFUS'S COUNSEL SHOT
Profound Sensation Caused in Frarce
by Attempt to Kill M. Labor.
A REVOLUTION SNUFFED OUT.

Maitre LaborI, Lawyer For Dreyfus, Was
Shot From Ambush at Rennes, While
on His Way From His Home to the
Court-would-Be Assassin Escaped
Couspirators Against the Government.
RENSEs, France CBy Cable).-Haitre La
borl, the great advocate, who has won the
admiration Of his enemies as we'll as his
friends for bis conduct OF the Dreyfus case,
was shot while on his way to the Lycee,
where the court-martial Is sitting.
Colonel Picquart and friend were with
him and they were crossing the bridge at
the entrance OF the Lycee at $50 o'clock
q. m. when young man, apparently about
twenty-five years old, fred from behind the
tence. NJ. Labori fell, the bullet striking
him below the shoulder.
Colonel Plcquart and the other man pur-
sued the assallant for long distance.
They were unable to overtake him, but
traced hin to a small patch OF woods near
ly three mics away, where the trail was
lost.
After NJ. Labori's removal to bis homo
the doctors issued an official bulletin say
Ing that the bullet had penetrated the pos
terror region OF the thorax on the right
side, between the fifth and sixth dorsal
vsrtebra.
The shot may or may not have been the
result OF q plot. The friends OF Dreyfus
are inclined to believe that the enemies OF
the famous prisoner planned the attack,
while others hold that the would-be muir
derer Is an anarchist.
Laborl not only is an able counsel, but 1t
ls said he hns In his possession informa..
tion that may lead to the arrest OF several
ex-Ministers. Because OF this many per.
sons hold that the man who shot Labort
was simply the hireling OF men high In the
councils OF France.
What the anti-Dreyfus partisans most
dreaded was NJ. Labori's cross-examina-
tion OF their witnesses, which was to have
been his chief function at the trial. 1t Is
we'll known that his examination OF General
Mercier would have been merclless.
It Is assumed by most persons that the
assassin's object was to kill Colonel Pic
quart also, who was walking close to La
bori. 1t Is Picquart's testimony which the
army conspirators and all OF the haters OF
Dreytus dread most. he will inevitably
expose much ofthe vast iniqulty OF which
Dreyfus Is the victim, and could his mouth
be closed, there Is still a possibility for
some OF the exalted villains to escape the
obloquy which they deserve.

PARIS PLOT THAT FAILED.
Members OF League OF Patriots Wer
Ready For Revolution.

Melnbsrs OF League OF Patriots Were
Ready For Revolution.
LONDON (By Cable).-A despatch to the
Daily News from Paris says that the at
tsck on ". LaborI was only the tall OF the
storm which would have swept over Rem
nes had the plot that was hatche1 In Paris
succeeded.
The plot vas no laughing matter. It was
to have ripened into revolutionary demon
strations on the boulevards. The conspira-
tors were to make bon1res OF the Drey-
fusIte newspapers in the streets and burn
the booths where they were sold. This
would have resulted In the calling out OF
the troops. The latter, however, were to
reverse arms and refuse to act. After this
some cavalry we're to help the movement.
Members Of the League OF Patriots were
to rush to the Republican and Soctallstio
newspaper offices, seize their stats and
hold them prisoners. simultaneously
rushes were to be on the Palace OF the
Elysee, and the Ministers OF the Interior
and Posts and Telegraphs. when news
would have been wired to the provinces
that Paris had revolted. War Minister
nominated by the Duke OF Orleans was to
replace General de- Galliffet.
Two days previous to the intended exc:
cution OF the plot, NJ. Lerine, Project OF
Police, received full information regarding
It. The conspirators are now under ar
rest.

Tho Famous German Chemist Loft p 'oS
terIty His Debtor.
HEIDELBERG, Germany (By Cable).-Prof
Robert Wilhelm Eberhard Bunsen, NJ. D.
the chemist, Is dead, aged eighty-eight.
Prof. Bunsen was born on March 13
1911, at Gottingen. He studied the physl
col ana natural sciences In the Univer
sity at Gottingen, where his father wa!
Professor OF Occidental Literature, ant
completed his education ut Paris. Ber
lin and Vienna. In 1886 lie was appointed
Professor OF Chemistry In the Polytechnic
Institution at Cass. In 18Sshs became As.
sistant Professor In the University OF Mar
burg, became Titular Professor In 1sl
and then Director OF the Chemical Insti
tute. In 1851 he passed to the University
OF Breslau. and in 1852 to the University o.:
Heidelberg.
With Professor Klrchoff he was the
founder OF stellar chemistry. He made
many important discoveries and inven.
tions, and the charcoal pile which bears
his name Is In very extensive use. From
the spectrum analysis down to the sim
plest manipulations Of practical chemistry
his numerous discoveries have rendered
the greatest service to science.
The name OF Bunsen as one OF the great
est chemical inventors OF the century II
known to the world at large in connection
with the Bunsen battery cell, the Bunser
burner and the litter pump.
It Is impossible to estimate the debt owed
by present day industrial chemists ant
physicists to these contrivances which
Bursen invented for his own use and which
are now ordinary apparatus In every labor
atory.
