THE PECK FARM.

To close the estate this splendid
property consisting OF some fifty acres
Of land located In the City OF Barre,
and only one mile from the Post Office
is now en- the market. The property
includes modern built house, with
horse barn attached, together with
other farm buildings.
THE LAND is in a high state Of
cultivation and produced enough hay
to winter some fifteen head Of cattle
and several horses for the past few
years. This land is equally divided
into pasture and tillage land; is all
fenced in good shape; has rnnning
water to tub in pasture. The land
slightly slopes to a southern exposure.
NO BETTER PLACE IN NEW
ENGLAND FOR A VEGETABLE
OR POULTRY FARM.
THE HOUSE has eleven large
rooms and could easily be arranged for
two splendid tenements. Some Of
the rooms have waxed hard wood
floors and the castings and wood work
throughout the house are In the best
of shape. The house has all modern
imprC vements, including water closet
connected with sewer, also bath tub
and set bowls, The house has only
been built a short time, and cost yer
S3000.00 and is In as good shape to.
day IS when built. There is the best
| Of spring water running to house.
The large lawn In front OF the house,
together with the eloction and
pleasant surroundings make it a most
| desirable home.
THE HORSE BARN was built at
the same time the house was and is
attached to same. 1t is 24x30 in size
and has three stalls, and is in the very
best OF shape.
THE FARM BARNS are located a.
way from the house, and are in good
shape. They consist of several build.
ings and have Accommodations for the
keeping of twenty COWS and four
horses, together with smaller cattle.
There is running water to these build.
ings.
This property is the safest, surest
and most profitable investment ever
offered in this city. There has been
more money made in real estate right
here in Barre than in any other place
in New England and the chances are
equally as good to-day at they ever
were. The value Of this property is
bound to increase rapidly because
there is very little land Within the
same distance that can be bought at
all. There have been building lots
sold and buildings erected on same
within a few rods Of this farm.

Capt. Charles E. Clark, who has just
been appointed by President Roosevelt
to represent the navy at King Ed
wards coronation, is one of the most
skillful chess players in the United
States, says the New York Times. In
deed, it was Capt. CIark's prowess at
chess which led to his selection to
command the battleship Oregon during
the memorable voyage around the
Horn in 1896, and which is consequently
responsible for his present appoint
ment.
Before Capt. Clark's selection to
command the Oregon he was in charge
of the gunboat Bennington, which was
frequently stationed in San Francisco
bay. His favOrite rendezvous when on
shore was the social room of the Mer-
camille Library Club of that city
Numbers of adroit chess players con-
gregated there. but no matter how
adept, they all went down in defeat
before Capt. Clark. When engaged in
a game he played with great intensity
Precipitation bathed his forehead, and
invitations to refreshment were un.
needed. There was never any money at
stake, but the captain played as if
struggling for a fortune.
This trait Of doing thoroughly what
ever ne set out 10 accomplish was con-
siderably talked about, and finally
reached the ears of the officials of the
Navy Department When, therefore
the time came to select man to guide
the Oregon on her long journey the
Eame Of Capt. Clark was prominently
mentioned.
DID you ever see him play chess %
urged one of the advocates of Clarks
appointment, who then proceeded to de-
scribe the captains intense and deter
mined application when engaged in the
game.
IF any man." he added, "can pilot
that battleship safely through the Pa
cific and bring it promptly into action
it's Clark"
few hours later orders were sent
to Capt Clark to command the Ore
gon and to sail with her for Cuban
waters. Thus did strategy at the chess
board pave the way for subsequent dis
tinction.
