to the merits Of this rapid transit
system up the West river valley.
They were having a free ride, ac'
cording to the usual custom at the
time of the annual meeting, and the
train was we'll filed there being about
IS stockholders aboard. The tram

eXasperating wait while that side Of
the locomotive was being disconnect'

holders OH the train saw that they
could not be present at that hour word
was sent on to Brattleboro and the

KILLED ABOUT 30 LAMBS.
Bear Has Been Seen Several Times
in Marlboro But is Still at Large.

in Marlboro But is Still at Large.
Marlboro has been surcharged with
excitement for days over the depre
dations OF a bear. which has killed
about so lambs. The animal has not
followed the usual bent of bears. as
laid down by naturalists. in simply
killing lambs necessary to satisfy its
hunger. but has carried away a large
number of Carcasses. Some of the
hunters think that the bear has cubs
and has carried away the lambs 10
feed the young ones. Our Marlboro
correspondent sends the following ac-
count:
Friday morning of last week, as G..
c. Ryder, who lives on the Hugh
Adams farm. collected his sheep for
the purpose Of shearing. he found
many lambs missing. Surprising il
to be the work of foxes. Mr.. Ryder
returned mis- sheep to the pasture Sat
urday morning but on going TO the
pasture Saturday night he found the
flock scattered and large black bear
in hot pursuit. Mr.. Ryder rallied
such help as was at hand and Bruin
fled. Sunday morning, as members
of Deacon Hamilton's family were on
their way to church, they saw the
bear cross the stage road between
John Whitney's and Charles Fetch
ers, AS c. w. Snow and family
were on their way TO church they saw
Bruin coming from the stage road
and going towards the North pond
woods. This was the last sight of
the hear, but there are many indica-
tons OF his return to the scenes of
his former efforts. All told there
have been killed % or ~ sheep and
lambs in Mr. Ryders pasture. and two
or three in the pasture of f. p. Adams.
The bear is yet at large. and there are
still few sheep and tender lambs
left in our pastures.

MONTGOMERY

After suffering three straight de-
feats at the hands of the Montgomery
baseball team, the Chathams took a
game at the Bolton Street Park yester-
day afternoon in the presence of nearly
a thousand people. The Chathams had
a band on hand to scare the hoodoo
away and it was either the music or
the change in umpire that broke the
i'll luck that has been following them
recently.
The game was holly contested from
The start to the finish, the Montgom-
cry team having the locals at their
mercy at one time, but a change in the
pitchers put them to the bad. The
score at the end of the ninth was
to in favor of the Chathams.
The teams will play again this after
noon, and now that they have com
menced on their winning streak they
expect to take three straights from the
visitors.
