the bat. Long hits were made at
critical points of the game when the
bases were FULL and thus the large
score. There was a large attendance
at the game, both from Barre and
Montpelier. This is the second de-
feat for Goddard on their own grounds
this season.
Bernard Bolkey, the man who was
found at the Junction Friday morning,
with a broken arm and collar bone, is
still at the Heaton Hospital. He is
still in the dark about how he came to
be in such condition. He is Ger
man and has worked in Moretown and
in New Hampshire.
Albert Tuttle, trustee of the Lang
don estate, on the appointment of the
chief of police employs special police
man to patrol Nicholas hill and pre-
cincts, and pays for the officers SER
vices. The hill has been the camping
ground of customers of second class
saloons and is strewn with empty bot
ties. Mr.. Tuttle is determined that
second class sales shall not be drunk
on the premises of which he is GUS
todian, and his example is good one
for the owners or keepers of other
premises. The Tuttle policeman has
made several arrests and turned away
a crowd of candidates for police court
administration.
No business was transacted at the |
meeting of the Old Home Week asso- |
citation, which was held Saturday
night, on account of the small attend
ance. A meeting of the association
will be held next Saturday evening, at |
which the election Of officers will take !
place and the matter of celebration !
will probably be left in the hands of !
the executive committee. 1t seems |
to be the general sentiment of the !
people that it would be best not to !
hold a celebration in the city this !
year. The Vermont association of !
Boston is to celebrate with st. Johns
bury and Newport.

Troy, the only license town in Or
leans county, has not been heard from
in the press since it broke the ranks of
no license in that section of the State
at the March meeting. According to
Senator Annis, who is in the city to-
day. the town has not forgotten the
special privilege that belongs to it and
preparations are being made for open
ing bar in one of the hotels at North
Troy, under first class license. Troy
voted strongly against license at the
referendum but at the March meeting
license won by five majority. Senator
Annis gives number of reasons why
the change came about and one of
them is that two roads lead to Canad-
ian saloons only mile away from the
north village and as there was no hope
of keeping liquor out of the town any
way it was just as we'll to have it sold
on Vermont soil.
