ATTACKED BY FIVE MEN.
Negro Butler Severely Beaten
With Clubs and stones.

George Sales, a negro butler, employed
at the home of NJ. w. Hazeltine. 1925 F
Street northwest, was attacked and bru-
tally beaten in an alley in the rear of the
residence last night by five men, and is
now at the Emergency Hospital in a seri-
Gus condition. His assailants made their
escape from the police 1t is said they
are known, and arrests will probably be
made this morning
The story of the affair shows no cause
for the attack on the negro, who has
been in the employ of the Hazeltine fam
lily for nine years. 1t seems that Sales
with two other servants, was left in
charge of the residence when the family
went to New York several months ago.
Sales and one of the servants were at
the house last night, while a man named
Clemens, gardener. employed at the
Navy Department, was at work in the
rear yard
The first intimation Sales or the gard
ener had of trouble was about o'clock,
when five young men. all neatly attired.
appeared at the gate enclosing the rear
of the premises. one of the men gave
the bell at the gate vigorous pull, time

house to see what was the trouble. Glenn
ems stopped his work on hearing the bell.
and claims to have seen the men seize
Sales about the body and carry him from
the yard into an alley in the rear of the
house. Sales called Justify for assistance
a moment later, and Clemens ran to the
gate from which he could see the 1--WE
men beating the butler with clubs and
striking him with rocks.
Policemen Houser and Flanagan were
summoned, and found Sales lying in the
alley. His assailants had disappeared. A
call was sent in for the ambulance, and
the injured man was hurried TO the Emer-
geucy Hospital. The physicians dressed
the wounds and under treatment Sales
recovered consciousness. lie was very
weak. and was unable to talk. He will
probably recover.
\ search was at once begun for his as
sailants The police claim to know their
names, and a description of them has
been sent to the various precincts.

Rutlands-Rrove Easy Mark for Old Midd.
The last football game of the season
was played by Mddlebury college last
of that place. 1t was an easy victory for
Middlebury, resulting 10 q score of l6 to
0. Shortly after the kickoff in the first
half, Drake went around the end behind
excellent interference for 80 yards and
the first touchdown, and Wilds kicked
the goal. Drake again took the ball after
the next kickoff for 60 yards and the
second touchdown. No goal was kicked.
On the next kickoff Stubbs ran the ball
back 40 yards. After Middlebury had
punted, Rutland made few gains
through the line, but lost the ball on
downs. Middlebury rushed the ball to
Rutland's 10 yard line, where it was
fumbled and went to Rutland. The
latter failed to make any gain and started
to punt. Butler, an old Vermont man,
was given the ball, but instead of kick
ing the ball squarely he struck it with
the side of his foot. 1t went whirling
into the air to one side. Eagle-eyed
Stubs was waiting and had the ball
across the line before Rutland could stop
him. Wilds missed the goal. Score
100. In the second half no scoring was
done by either side. The ball. however,
was at no time in threatening distance of
Middlebury's goal. A delegation Of local
rOoters accompanied the team and en-
oyed themselves to the full with the en-
ragged Rutland supporters. At many
points during the game a general mix
up seemed imminent. The fairness of
the officials deserves commendation.
Drake, Stubs and Duffield did excellent
work for Mddlebury.

CNCOlN'S BIG FIRE.
Lumbey Company's Tub Factory Burne
With q Loss of $4,000.

LumbeF Company's Tub Factory Burned
= With a Loss of $4,000.
The Lincoln Lumber company's lumber
Inil and butter tub and box factory at
Lincoln Center was burned Thanksgiving
evening with loss of about $4,000.
The fire was discovered at :45 o'clock
by E. e. Parent, and was located in the
basement The place has no fire system
and though the citizens turned out and
worked hard the fire quickly spread to
the upper rooms, and, in less than an
hour, the entire plant, with the exception
of dry-house and some storage sheds,
was totally destroyed.
The mill was l40 feet long and 60 feet
wide and two stories high. 1t contained
machine shop, and much valuable ma
chlnery for the manufacture Of coarse
lumber, shingle, butter-tubs and square
and round butter boxes. All this ma
chinery is of course total loss.
This concern was the largest of its kind
in Vermont. 1t employed on an average
40 people during the year, with pay
roll of more than 5000 a week, and manu-
featured more than 1000 butter packages
each day, representing business, all
told, of more than $4,000 year. More
than 200 people, directly and indirectly,
got their living from 1t, and accordingly
it is serious blow to the town. How
ever, determind effort is beingImade to
have the COMPANY rebuild the mill and
continue the business. A petition
pledging the voters to vote in special
meeting to exempt the concern from
taxation five years has already been
signed by majority of the legal voters
of the town; and it seems certain that the
town will so vote.
The company, which was organized in
1890, has had three serious set backs
besides this last one. In 1892 a flood
damaged its property more than $1,000
In 1894 its mill was burned with a loss OF
about $4,000, and in 1898 valuable dry
house was burned. In spite of this
however, the concern has prospered and
this year has done the largest business In
its history.
Bristol has offered the concern g
building and power, valued at $1,000, as
an inducement to locate there, but II
now seems probable that the business
will be continued here.
