Only One in Jamaica.

Only one deer has been shot in Jamaica,
so far as known. Archie Knight and
Ora Underwood were out hunting birds
on a farm owned by B. A. Vinton on
rushing past them. They were at close
raRge and knights shot brought down
the buck The animal was in good con-
dition and weighed over 100 pounds
dressed. Several deer have been seen
in Jamaica by the hunters. but so far as
reported this is the only one shot A
buck and four does We're seen within
half mile of Jamaica village Tuesday
afternoon.
William Crowley of New York city re-
turned to his home Tuesday after
weeks stay in Windham carrying with
him handsome buck weighing about 200
pounds as a trophy of his skill with
rife. This deer came out into an OPEN
ing not a long distance away. Crowley
fired twice. The first shot went wide,
but the second broke the deer's neck and
the buck went not more than so feet.
There were two deer together, but the
one shot was in front and Crowley could
not see whether the second one was
buck. This buck was shot Saturday
Crowley had previously seen two or three
does. Several people in Windham have
reported seeing pure white albino buck
This animal would make a valuable prize
II shot as there is a standing offer in
the Smithsonian institute in Washington
for an albino deer.
Roy Harrington of Windham also got a
deer weighing about 200 pounds. The
South Windham correspondent reports
that deer was killed on the Styles place
a few days ago and that one of the
hunters staying at II. M. Ingalls's got
one this week.
Our Bondvllle correspondent writes
Many hunters have been abroad in the
land the past few days, but only two
succeeded in getting deer, so far as
known John Williams shot one back of
Herbert Coleman's place that weighed
$50 pounds, and Mr. Dufresne of Man
chester shot a larger one, weighing
about $50 pounds, near the Wright place
on the Manchester road. A party of
hunters, some of them from Northboro.
Mass, camped several days at the Wheel
er place in ROCKVILLE near the top of the
mountain, but did not succeed in getting
a deer.

1.-THE Climbers" a Fine Presentation.

Contemporaneous New York life. the
ludicrous efforts to gain a high social
position In society, and incidentally the
uncertainty of the money market and
the moral degradation that often follows
financial reverses were wildly portrayed
In Clyde Fitch's New York success, The
Climbers which was played in the
Auditorium Wednesday night good
sized audience was present. So far as
the personnel of the company. the act
ing. the costumes. the state settings and
the scenery. were concerned the enter
tainment was one of the best that ever
has been given in Brattleboro. Every
member of the cast was an actor in
the best sense. and II would be hard to
distinguish the leading" PLAYERS from
the support" in this respect. Such a
combina ton of talent is seen in a town
Of this size but on rare occasions As
to the play itself. 1t furnishes a series
of attractive scenes which are new in
the dramatic field, and so far as IL goes
its moral lesson generally is of the right
kind. But II might go farther The
nlav closes with the suicide of the lead
ing man. who has mjsused funds en-
trusted to his care. There is no other
charre against him, and yet, though he
is thoroughly repentant. there is not a
single soul to extend a helping hand to
aid him I'm beginning life anew Even
his wife declares that love never again
shall exist between them That may be
faithful to life as IT is lived by New
York social set but TO the average
theatre-goer ii leaves something to be de-
sired. John f. Kellerd who played
the part of Richard Sterling. is one of
the best dramatic actors on the stage.
As has already been said. the work of
the company was uniformly so good that

Close of Teachers, Convention.

The members of the State Teachers
Association were entertained very pleas
antly at Vermont Academy last Friday
evening by Principal Ellery and the
faculty.
The last session of the convention was
held Saturday. At the business meet
ing Principal w. ID. Parsons of Wood
stock the treasurer, reported expenses
of $4l6.65 and receipts of Al3Sl. The
total registration was 1886: the total regis
tration at Burlington last year was 1853.
1t was thought, however. that the total
attendance this year was over 400, sew
eral not registering. These officers were
elected: President II. j. Stannard of

port of the committee on resolutions.
The report commended the school eX-
hibits especially in drawing. and it was
recommended that more attention be Civ

The attitude of the state superintendent
toward nature study was approved, ana
the Legislature was asked TO make APP
propriations to make possible the print
ing and distribution of pamphlets on this
subject The extension of musical in
struction was also commended. The
report stated that more efficient super

Some Good Stories from Bellows

The open season for deer at this end of
the county and in near by towns of
