The Audubon Society.

The meeting of the Audubon Society
of Vermont, which was held at the
Brooks House last Monday evening,
by invitation of Mrs. Frank Wells
and Miss Stearns, was largely at
tended. A very interesting report of
the history of Audubon work was
given by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Daven-
port. The report contained some very
grievous statistics of the destructure
of our native birds for millinery pur-
poses. The constitution and bylaws
of the newly organized society were
read by Mrs. Davenport and accepted
and adopted by the society. The sub
ject for the evening was blackbirds
and orioles, and several interesting
papers and selections were read by
Miss Helen Harrington, Mrs. Charles
McRae and Miss Agnes Whitney
Several specimens of the birds and
their nests were shown to illustrate
the subjects. One noticeably attract
i've was the hanging or basket nest
of the Baltimore Oriole shown by w
d. Stockwell of West Brattleboro
and composed almost exclusively of
strings and materials placed in a con
venient situation by Mrs, Stockwell.

Acquisition to the Free library.

Through the kindnes of Mrs. George
Shea and Miss Mary Ritter Shea the
Free Library has lately been the re-
cipient of two valuable acquisitions.
The first consists of a gift of more
than one hundred volumes. many of
them costly editions, from the library
of the late Judge Shea. and the second
the loan, by Miss Mary Shea, of a copy
in bronze of the celebrated statue of
Mercury by John Of Bologna. The latter
has been placed in the entrance hall,
in a most effective position, and lends
a charm thereto which will be apppre,
ciated by all who visit the institution.
John of Bologna was born at Douai
in 1880. Showing artistic talent in
early life he was sent to Rome, but
finally settled in Florence. Founding
his style upon the study of Michael
Angelo he was considered the best
sculptor of his time. Among his best
works NAV be mentioned the groups
of the "The Rape of the Sabines,
his venus Coming from the Bath,
and the Mercury" rendered familiar
to us by the plaster casts recently dis
played in Vaughan & Burnett's win
dow.
The board of trustees at theiI
last meeting passed vote of cordial
thanks to both Mrs. and Miss Shea for
their thoughtful kindness in making
these valuable additions to the library
thus enrolling themselves among the
large number of benefactors who have
manifested a friendly interest in the
institution.

DAY OF SURPRISES.
Hotel Men Arrested in BrattIe.
boro Wednesday.
Alleged Violations Of Liquor Law
Many Witnesses Summoned to
Court House at Newfane Today.

Wednesday was a day of surprises
for Brattleboro liquor sellers. On that
day States Attorney Weston filed in
formations against c. G. Miller, for.
mer proprietor of the American
House, now of Newfane, l.. F. Wilbur,
the present landlord of that hotel, T.
j. Ferriter of the Brattleboro House.
and c. p. Cotton of the Melrose House,
West Brattleboro. Miller, Wilbur and
Ferriter were arrested and taken to
Newfane. Cotton was not arrested
because he Is i'll, but it is understood
that a warrant is waiting for him.
Miller, Wilbur and Ferriter were taken
before the court yesterday, and all
plead mot guilty" and stood for trial.
Miller was placed under bonds of
$500 and Wilbur under $1,000 Fer
ritter was retained in the custody Of
the officers. 1t is understood at New
fame that the trials would begin this
morning, that of Wilbur coming first.
A large number of witnesses have
been summoned.
There is evidently a very healthy in
huence emanating from the Newfane
court house at the present time and
it is reliably stated that this is the
beginning of a movement which is to
be stringently followed up, and that
States Attorney Weston is determin-
ed to put an end to the condition of
things which has existed in this vii
lage in the rum business during the
past summer. Mr.. Weston need have
no doubt that public sentiment will
sustain him in this course. He has
the backing of the law, the courts and
the people.
Landlord Turner of the Brattleboro
House has not been in town for sew
! eral days. Some amusing episodes
arose from the serving of the sub
penas yesterday by Deputy Sheriffs
Gordon and Mcclure, and several men
who apparently did not wish to ties
tify are alleged to have made tracks
into New Hampshire.

Vermont" the Attraction Next Thurs
day Night.

Vermont" the new play in which
Archie Boyd will appear here on next
Thursday is a comedy picture of New
England life. Special scenery, a clever
company and the performance of Archie
Boyd as Bijah Hopkins of Vermont and
Nebraska will make this performance at
tractive. There are many amusing Incl
dents in the play, including a children's
candy pulling, a public vendoo, a village
choir practice and a mock trial which
afford opportunities for the rural inhabi-
tants of Vermont to get a firm hold on
the audience. The company includes sew
eral clever artists, chief of whom is
Archie Boyds leading support, Alden
Bass, who plays the part of Adonirum.
Archie Boyd himself is as interesting and
pleasing as he used to be in Shore Acres.
and more nearly fills the place of James
A. Herne than any other actor on the
American stage.

oALE-KERR WEDDING.
Successful School Teacher Now the
Wife of the young Attorney Of
G,iIFarJ

ONSSCSSidl OShOOl lSdSHCI NOW INC
Wife of the young Attorney of
Guilford.
A quiet home wedding was cele-
brated Wednesday at ~ O'Clock,
noon, at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
George A. Kerr in Dummerston, when
their daughter. Miss Abbie A. Kerr,
became the wife of John E. Gale of
Guilford. Only immediate relatives
were present. The parlor was dec
GRATED with flowers and ferns, and the
ceremony was performed under
floral monogram G-K. by Rev. Mr..
Jackson of Dummerston. The Epis-
copal ring service was used. The
bride wore a gown of white French
null, fastened at the throat with a
brooch of fine gold, the gift of the
groom, and carried a bouquet of lilies
of the valley. Mr.. and Mrs. Gale left
Brattleboro on the $40 afternoon
train for ten days trip to the Pan
American exposition, and on return
ing will make their home in Guilford.
The bride has been a successful
school teacher in Putney, Dummers-
ton, Guilford and Vernon. The groom
is one of the most progressive Young
farmers of Windham county, and not
withstanding his many duties found
time to study law, and to pass
highly credtable examination for
entrance to the Vermont bar in 1897.
He has since conducted a good gen
eral law practice in addition to his
other work. He was admitted to
practice in the United States courts
in 1899. Although Guilford is a Re
publican town, Mr.. Gale was elected
to the legislature as a Democrat in
1900, and was one of the most active
members of that session. He has
been school superintendent in Gull
ford, and has held all the important
town offices with the exception of
selectman. He has been a frequent
contributor for years to well-known
publications, has been one of the
speakers for the state board of agri-
culture, and has filled manv positions
of trust, especially in connection with
estates. There is no Young man in
Windham county who has shown bet
ter what may be accomplished bv per-
severance, or who is more entitled to
credit for his successful efforts that
Mr.. Gale, and his many friends
throughout the county and state take
this happy occasion to congratulate
him and to extend best wishes to him
and his bride.

Pleas of Not Guilty Retraeted This

Morning, and Heavy Fines and Sen
fences Imposed.
A despatch from Newfane at noon
today states that when brought into
court this morning T. j. Ferriter with
drew his plea of not guilty and en-
tered a plea of guilty of five second
offences. He was fined 500 and
costs. and was sentenced to imprison-
ment in the house of correction for
term OF not less than IL months nor
more than IL months.
l.. f. Wilbur withdrew his plea of
not guilty and plead guilty to five first
offences, and was sentenced to pay
a fine of $500 and costs. with an
alternate sentence to the house of cor
rection in case of non-payment of the
fine. In imposing this sentence
Judge Stafford said in substance that
the respondent was running an open
bar in a hotel in the largest village in
Windham county in open violation Of
the law, with full knowledge of the
offence which he was committing.
The fine of $500 imposed is the heav-
lest sentence provided by the law in
such cases, saving only that imprts-
onment was not added to the fine.
C. c. Miller plead guilty to five sec
ond offences and was fined 800 and
costs, and sentenced to serve a term
of not less than II months nor more
than 10 months in the house OF correc-
ton. Judge Stafford stated, however,
that in view of the fact that Miller
had voluntarily quit the business be-
fore his prosecution, he would be
placed in charge of the probation Off
Ger and that the sentence to i'm
prisonment would be suspended dur
ing good behavior. That is to say, he
will not be imprisoned so long as he
keeps out of the rum business.
