MAIN LINES STILL OPEN

With water pipes frozen up on
every street and at nearly every house
in some parts of the village Benniug-
ton people thought their cup of trouble
was full.
A worse danger however now threat
ems. During the past "A hours several
branch sewers have frozen and the
number is being added to every hour.
The lack of snow this winter coupl-
ed with the severely cold weather has
resulted in the ground being'frozen to
an unprecedented depth-over six feet
in places-and while so far all the
main sewers are open, there is no tell
ing when the frost may reach and
close one or more.
Should this occur there would be
serious danger Of an outbreak Of some
contagious disease and the people OF
the village should take every pre-
caution in the matter.

was passing through a doorway where
the door slides upward, the rope broke

the young mans head, inaicting u
slight wound. Many friends are
thankful for the escape from what
might have been a terrible fatality.
Another accident is reported to lit

physician was summoned, but it is re-
ported the little fellow was not serious

NOT PROPERLY FILED

st. Albans, Feb. 25:-The names OF
the Republican or citizens candidates
at the coming city election will not ap-
pear on the official ballot.
The ticket which was nominated at
caucus largely Republican was filed
as a Citizens ticket.
1t later developed that there was ne
such ticket at the last city election and
therefore no party was entitled to
make caucus nominations under that
name.
The Republicans did not learn their
error soon enough to get the names on
the ticket by petition and Judge Start
has ruled that the names cannot be
printed on the official ballot.
At next Tuesdays election, there
fore, the only names on the official bal
lot will be those of the Democratic
candidates.
The Republicans viii attempt to car
ry the election by writing in the names
Of their candidates.
