FRIGHTENED BY AUTO.
Horse Ran Away in Hardwick occu-
pants Badly Hurt.

HardwicIx, April 27. The first acci-
dent of the season, caused BY horse
being afraid of an automobile. occurred
yesterday afternoon in front of the Con-
gregational church. Mrs. l.. S. Robbie,
accompanied by Mrs. M. 0. Nichols and
Mrs Thomas, were out driving, when
they met Mr.. and Mrs. Cove riding in
their automobile Mrs. Robie's horse
became frightened and started up the
bank in front of the Catholic church,
oyerturning the surrey and throwing
the occupants into the street.
Mrs. Nichols and Mrs. Thomas were
injured, but Mrs. Robbie escaped with
but few bruises. Mrs. Nichols right
wrist and one rib were broken and it is
feared that she is injured internally.
On account Of the advanced age and a
bad heart trouble her case seems serious.
Mrs. Thomas is the mother OF Mrs.
Montague and one of her fingers is
broken and her hip bruised. No blame
il attached to Mr. Cove, as he stopped
the automobile and went TO their res
eue.

the man he defeated. Ex-Mayor E. l.
Smith spoke Of his pleasure in having
the cooperation Of those "from across
the sea" in the building up Of the
city. City Clerk Maekay convulsed the
crowd with the narration Of interest
ing episodes in connection with his Of
flee.
Donald Smith said he didn't know of
Ia man who had served as long as All
derman Robins and who had retired with
so much credit. He declared that Bar
clay is master politician through his
ability to control the prohibition vote.
x-Mayor N. d. Phelps spoke for the
fire department, outlining its progress,
and, touching upon insurance matters,
said that lower rates would undoubtedly
be Forthcoming when the new depart
ment has been tried out. States Attor-
ney jackson closed the speech making
with talk full of meat. He took liquor
law enforcement for a subject and said
that the citizen who goes into place
and buys liquor when it is unlawful to
sell is not fulfilling his oath as a citi-
zen. From moral standpoint the buver
is as culpable as the seller.
Then ex-Mayor Melcher and corps
OF assistants brought in the refresh
ments and the gastronomic feature Of
the jollification was carried out.
During the evening John Robins, the
cause of the celebration, enjoyed it as
thoroughly as the others. Apparently
his speech is being saved for an occasion
to come.

Disappointed License Appli-
cants in Montpelier.
F" BILLY" MILLER REFUSED
Massucco Given Privilege Again-Com-
missioners Had Hard Time Com
ing to Decision Success
full Ones Called in.

The Montpelier license commissioners
closed an agony last night at q late
hour by announcing the successful as
pirants for the chance to sell liquor
during the year beginning Monday. For
three successive nights they had wres
tied with the problem before them, and
the meetings held until late every time.
Those who were chosen are
First class, j. j. Chimney, Serafno
Massucco, J.. S. Viles Of the Pavilion
Hotel and A. S. Sparrow Of the Mont
pelier House.
Second class E. S. Meigs and L. G.
Rivers.
There were nineteen applications for
the six chances, and those who held IL
eenses this year and who were turned
down last night are: William Miller,
proprietor OF Miller's Inn, one of Mont
pelier's well-lnown institutions, p. H.
Ryan, who asked for u second class

Blakely. These with the other Success
ful applicants were notified this morn

called before the board by unanimous
vote and were given d heart to heart
talk which lasted until midnight.
There was a good deal of fault find,
ing on the street in Montpelier today
over the award, there being strong ex-
pressions Of disapproval that William
Miller was turned down. 1t Is under
stood that the old member Of the board,
Henry Holt, stood out for Mr.. Miller,
but that the others would not listen
to granting him license. Many Of
those who protested thought that he
should have been given license instead
of S. Massueco. There was little said
about the druggists being refused.
A small army Of liquor drummers
struck Montpelier today and they have
been busy taking orders. Those who
got licenses stated that they would take
pity on last years licensees who were
inns lc,'essful ard had a large stock ON

BENEFIT FOR BOYS CLUB.
Fine Concert Given at Opera House Last
Evening.

1t is the verdict of the 45O aeople
who were present at the opera house
last evening that the concert given for
the benefit Of the Boys club by George
II. Wilder of Montpelier with his or
chestra Of sixteen artists and Miss Car
rie Hirschman, the celebrated piano So
loist and some of the best talent that
this city claims, was without a doubt
the best musical entertainment heard in
this city for a long time. III ever the
opera house should have been crowded
with an appreciafive audience, it was
last evening, Those present were APP
preciative, and every number of the
long programme was given enthusiastic
applause and encores were general
Wilder's orchestra was never better
heard here than in this concert. Mr..
Wilder was assisted in his orchestra last
evening by H. ]. Harding, flute and pic
colo soloist Of the First Battalion band
of Boston, Richard Merritt and j. w.
Bartholomew, French horn players, also
Of Boston. The audience was most en-
thusiastie over the beautifully played
selections.
Scarcely anything too good can be
said of the playing Of Miss Hirschman,
whose eight selections from the most
noted composers, played without notes,
with beautiful expression, exquisite
touch and perfect technique, were d rev
elation to her hearers. Miss Hirsehman
brought out most forcefully the wonder
full beauties Of the Everett grand piano
which was used throughout the pro-
gramme.
The parts taken in the entertainment
by the local talent were BY no means
less enjoyable than the rest. The Sehu-
mann quartette composed Of Miss Emma
Phillips, Mrs. w. III. Gale, Mrs. b. w.
Braley and Miss Maude e. Harris. sang
beautifully i'll one selection. The read
ing of Mrs. Arthur G. AYerill added a
pleasing variety to the programme and
was very much enjoyed. Mrs. AveriIl
reeited the beautiful story of 'The
Duchess May" by Drummond. Miss
Maude Z. Harris sang two very en-
joyable solos, the last one with violin
obligato by Edwin Bruce. Mr.. Harding
delighted the audience with a piccoIo
solo and be was obliged to respond with
two encores. After the opening over
ture, Merry Wives OF Windsor by
the orchestra, for an encore they played
Mr.. Wildeps latest composition, the
Vermont State Capitol March," and it
was enthusiastically received.
During the intermission between the
first and second parts Of the programme,
a clever entertainment was given by
five members Of the Boys club. Difficult
feats were performed on d trapeze BY
Venner and Maiden and the we'll known
trio, Mcknight. Turner aud Cummings,
did excellent work at juggling Indian
clubs and in acrobatic stunts.
The Boys club will clear $4360, the
expenses this year being more than pre-
vi0us times
