DAUGHTERS of 1912.

The steadily spreading National society
of the United States Daughters of 1912
promises to stand as a foremost patriotic
Society of American Women. The general
society was organized in 1892, but not I'M
til 1901 did it become National society.
AT this time a charter was granted by
the United States Congress, the second
one that had ever been given to a
woman's society. In June of the same
year, Vermont became an organized
state, under the presidency of Mrs. G. F.
r. Jenne of Brattleboro, the appointment
being made by Mrs. William Gerry Slade
of New York city the National Presi-
dent.
The objects of the Society are of
course, patriotic, the date of eligibility
to membership is from January IA, 1874,
to March ., 1915 The government is
modelled as nearly as possible on that of
the United States Government, each
state doing its distinctive work and all
uniting for the National society. Yer
mont has been seeking out the real
Daughters, and the graves of its heroes.
She is anxious to gather information
about the soldiers of this period and re-
quests, as a favor that all having such
information will assist by sending facts
of interest to the president, who will
gladly forward circulars of information
concerning the society to all who are
interested.

Saturday afternoon Mrs. Rufus Case
of Readsboro was crossing the mountain
towards Bennington when near Howes
pond the horse stopped suddenly and
showed signs of great fright Looking
for the cause Mrs. Case saw in the road
but short distance in front of the horse
a large black bear. She tried to cry out,
but was so badly frightened she could
not and there was no chance to turn a
round in the narrow road. The bear
looked at the rig a moment then trotted
leisurely into the woods. These animals
have been frequently seen of late by
berry pickers on the mountain.

the granite quarries, six miles above the
town, was begun Monday The road

Shooting at AIcOrn.

Last Thursday, during the com,
mencement exercises at Alcorn Col.
lege, Nanny Scott, "a young negro
with a bad record, got full of cheap
whisky and began shooting his pis-
tol at a negro named Gilmore, with
whom he had an alteration. Gil
more ran behind a horse and one
ball took effect in the horse and
killed it. Scott kept up constant
fusilade, but instead of striking the
man he was shooting at, he acci-
dentally shot Sidney Rowan, an in
nocent bystander, in the back.
Scott was arrested and his trial was
set for Monday, but owing to Row
ans condition, it had to be post
poned to next Saturday, when it
will come before Justice Pegram.

The Washington Post of the 10Th
has this to say of Ex-senator Will
liam Lindsay, former Mississip-
plan:
Ex-senator William Lindsay OF
Kentucky, who was seen at the
New Willard last evening, would
not commit himself to any candi-
date to the Presidency on the Dem
ocratic ticket, but in regard to the
Vice Presidency he has very pro-
nounced preference.
"There is one man." said the
Senator, "who would add immense
ly to the strength of the Democratic
ticket, and when 1 mention the
name of John G. Black of Illinois,
his availability will at once be rec
ognized. Gen. Black can get thou
sands of votes in the country that
no other man can hope to win. His
strength with the old soldiers, his
long and honorable public career,
his fine personality, are points in
his favor that need only to be men
toned to be realized. In addition,
his name on the ticket might turn
the scales in favor OF the Democ-
racy in Illinois, where the Republi-
cans are now facing a situation that
is causing the leaders a great deal
of uneasiness. To carry Illinois
this year in all probability means
victory in the nation, and John e.
Black might be the potential factor
in such an outcome.
