Stowe who has attained wealth and
prominence in the West. As the
arrangements are not fully perfected
it is thought best by those having
the matter in charge that no further
details be given at this time.
Henry Powers, who gave his resi-
dence as Barre and his destination as
Hardwick, reached Stowe Monday in
a state of utter Indifference as to
whether he was on the road to Hard
wick or to Mandalay. Sometime
Monday afternoon Mr.. c. E. Burt
found Powers in the loft of his barn
and he was fined FIVE dollars and
costs upon pleading guilty to intox-
ication.
The school in the Mills district

ance of 25.-Mabel S. Godfrey,

Leo Doubleday lost the fore finger
of his right hand Saturday evening
in manner so unusual that will be
many moons before he forgets the
circumstances attending the accident.
Leo and Eddie Muzzey took in the
circus at Montpelier Friday after
noon and came home Saturday after
noon very, very dry, and suffering
from that dark brown taste which
inevitably follows a circus. Under
these circumstances the boys thought
themselves justified in opening a
small keg of beer which they were so
fortunate as to have on hand. In
the division of labor, incident to tap
ping the keg, Leo held the faucet
while Eddie used an axe to drive it
in. Being consumed with thirst and
impatience, Eddie smote both hard
and wild with the result thathe came
down upon Leo's finger instead Of
the faucet. The bone was found to
be so badly broken as to render am.
putatiOn necessary.
