At BARRE.

Work was begun Saturday on the
new stone shed of Guidici Bros, neal
the Reinhslter sheds, which were
erected two years ago. The new shed
will be 200 feet long, and will be
equipped with every modern conven-
fence. George Stratton will also erect
a hundred foot addition 20 his shed
the present season, thus greatly en-
larging his capacity and force. All
of which is good news to Barre, and
means that our city is to continue to
grow in the future as it has in the
past.
The class of 1905, Spaulding High
School, gave a second annual recep-
tion on Saturday evening at the school

she was driving was a high spirited
animal and while attempting to turn
around zeal Summer street, the wheel

pant. Fortunately however, she was
thrown completely out of the over
turned wagon and escaped injury.
o. H. Hale and Messrs. Sheplee and
Jones have appealed from the decision
of the city council in the matter of
damages offered for the widening of
Pearl street. The case will come up
at the ensuing session of the city
court at which time commissioners to
award damages will probably be ap-
pointed. and the award of these com
missioners will be final, as far as the
amount of damage is concerned.
The sugar-making season closed on
Monday, and most Of the makers have
taken in their buckets. The season
has been a notable one, in the amount
of sugar made and the quality.
Among the successful ones in that vi
cinity is f. O. Little of the town of
Barre. Last week Mr.. Little made
1000 pounds of sugar from 945 tubs
which is a remarkable record. And
he states that the yield was very fine
Notwithstanding that it was late in
the season. His total crop this season
was 3, 200 pounds, which is about 1000
pounds more than the average. Last
year he made only 1900.

RUTLAND'S NJ YSTERY

Rutland, April 25.-A serious con-
dition of affairs in Rutland is re-
vealed by the report today of Patrol.
man John p. Clifford, who has been
at work for the past week trying to
apprehend the sssailants of Alex
L%undquist, the Swede who nearly
lost his life in front of the city hall
at the hands of four unknown men, q
week ago. Mr.. Clifford has succeed
ed in finding several persons whom he
is certain we're witnesses OF the
assault, but not one of them ia will
ling to admit that such was the case,
or to go into court and testify against
the ssssilsn is, If the latter should be
arrested.
Those who saw the attempt at muir
der seem to be in mortal fear of the
vengeance Of the gang who made the
assault and do not dare to inform
| against them, and for this reason it
now looks likely that the outrage will
have to go unpublished.
The leading union men of the city
regret exceedingly the occurrence, in
asmuch as the odIum of the deed is
generally placed on the unions. The
unions, in fact, undoubtedly had moth
ing to do with the assault, although
it may have been committed by i'll adj
' vised sympathizers L%undquist is
now recovering from the effects of the
| ASSAULT and it is believed that when
his head is entirely clear he may be
able to give some description of his
assailants, which will aid in their ap-
~prehension.

NEW PASTOR

Manchester, N. H., April 5.-At
the close Of an eloquent sermon Sun.
day morning, the Rev. Charles j.
Staples, pastor of the first Unitarian
church of this city, gave a surprise to
his parishioners by reading his resig-
nation as pastor. Late Saturday af-
ternoon Mr.. Staples received a renewal
Of the call which he recently declined
from the First Congregational uni
tarian) church Of Burlington, vt.
When he considered the first call he
declined as the call was not unani-
nous. This time, however, it came
from the entire congregation and he
decided to accept it.

FIREMEN AND MANIAC.

New York, April 25.-The fire de-
psrtment was called to the Manhat-
tan Eye and Ear Hospital Sunday ON
a very unusual mission. Robert Hind
man was taken to the hospital a few
days ago to have an operation per-
formed for the removal of a swelling
in the ear. Sunday he was taken vio-
lently insane and, eluding the nurses,
window eighty feet from the ground.
He had a pitcher in his hand and
threatened to throw it at anyone
through the window who attempted
to rescue him. The police from the
inside could do nothing as he would
be pushed over the edge if they at
tempted to get him and so the fire
company was called upon.
A ladder was raised and Captain
Clark refusing to assign any of his men
to so dangerous a mission went
up himself followed by two men.
While Hindman IS attention was at
tracted to the window Captain Clark
crept up and grabbed the maniac by
the neck and choked him, and after a
considerable fight on the IL inch ledge
the powerful man was subdued and
pushed through the window and placed
in a straight jacket. An opera
ton will be performed at Bellevue as
soon as possible in the hopes the man
may recover his reason again.

FACED DEATH.

Chicago, April 2..-Peter Neider-
meier, G%ustave Marx and Harvey Van
Dine, the car barn bandits, were
hanged today. Neidermeier, weak and
pale from his recent double attempt at
suicide, ~stubbornly refused to embrace
religion within a few hours of GER
tain d'ath. He joked and laughed
with the death watch and smoked ci-
gsrettes the greater part of the night.
His companions in crime were oon
vertsd to the Christian faith and spent
the night in peaceful slumber. At 7
O'Clock this morning Neidermeier was
asleep and Marx and Van Dine we're
engaged in prayer. At 10 O'Clock they
we're told to prepare for the end. De-
lay was caused by Neidermeier's re-
fussl to permit the guards to escort
him to the scaffold. He was carried
through the long corridors.
A Thousand prisoners signalled the
hour of the execution by shouting
Chats off" At the scaffold Neider'
meier refused to stand and he was
placed in a chair. The drop fell at
10 :3S, the chair falling with the body.
Marx dropped through the trap at
IL IL. He walked to the gallows un-
assisted.
Van Dine walked to the scaffold
and atood uuaidad nrop fell at
II. 90.

PAGE MURDER.

Waltham, Mass, April 22.|This
city has seldom seen a larger crowd
than that which assembled before the
court house on Thursday to witness
the preliminary hearing of Charles
Tucker, held for the murder of Miss
Mabel Page. 1t vas understood that
the prosecution would bring up only
enough evidence to warrant Tucker
being held for the grand jury. An
attempt was made by the defence for
the court and counsel to visit the Page
premises in order that they might un-
derstand the location of rooms. etc.,
but the motion was denied by Judge
Luce.

On June 10. 24S, TAB acres of the
former Chippewa reservations in
Minnesota will be opened to settlers
by the' United States government
Slowly the red men disappear. Every
year the acres that they can call their
own become fewer. Some of the
Indians become American citizens but
most of them prefer to stay on the
reservations and lead a life of idleness
permitted by the money received from
the government as the result of the
gradual surrendering of their lands.
Some tribes of the Indians are really
well-to do with very tidy sums for
each brave. But some how Lo cannot
adapt himself to the WAYS of civiliza-
tion. Civilization means to him a
life of Inactivity and indulgence in
firewater which together result in a
gradual decay of the athletic physique.
The noble red man is becoming a
being of history and story while the
half drunken, shiftless, good-for-
nothing agency Indian is taking his
place.
