HAD NINETY SHORT TROUT
North Adams Fishermen VIII Stay on Mssss-
ehusstts Soil.

Trout fishermen from the common
wealth bordering Vermont on the south
will hereafter give certain sections OF
the old Green Mountain state a
wide berth. a party of five from
North Adams recently had an exper-
fence in Stamford that though deserv-
ed was not altogether pleasant. The
incident was briefly mentioned In Fri
days Banner but further particulars
show that the Stamford game warden,
Thomas Coulter had the long end of
the controversy.
The parties arrested were c. T..
Winchell, license commissioner, e. A.
Bryant of the firm of futile & Bryant,
and DR. IL. j. Willard and son, Harry
When taken into custody the men had
in their possession about ninety trout
under six inches in length. They
were taken to the Paradise House and
after discussing the matter at consid-
cradle length, and with Mr. Paradise's
agreement to act as security for their
appearance at said hotel Monday, they
were allowed to go. After returning to
North Adams they took legal counsel
and were advised not to appear at the
hearing, and in accordance with this
advice they did not return for trial.
Now Mr. Coulter has warrant in his
pocket for their arrest and he is pa
tiently awaiting the appearance of
either OF the men on this side of the
state line.
The warden failed to bag the whole
party at the time OF the arrest, two
fishermen taking to their heels when
the officer appeared. One of the es-
Gaping poachers left pair of fishing
boots which he telephoned for from
over the line.

TO CHELSEA BY AUTO
Isolated Vermont Town to Acquire Rapid
Transit Facilities

Randolph, May 13.- Chelsea,
which Is sixteen miles from
the nearest railroad station and with
only stages as means of communica-
ton with the outside world, is to have
a more rapid means of transit this
summer, at least. An automobile is
to be put into service to convey pas
sengers daily to and from the South
Royalton railroad station.
1t is expected that the trip which is
now made by stage in about two and
one half hours, will be made by auto
mobile in forty-fve minutes. An ex-
pertinent run has already been made
and the time was some minutes less
than an hour. Daily trips will be be-
gan soon.

4 serious problem Is now facing the
people Of the village In the question ~
o new YMCA building. This matter
which has been quite generally discus.
sed for some time Is nov placed more
definitely before the citizens by the
fact that the Park block In which are
situated the YMCA rooms is soon 10
be- converted into a store and they will
be Obliged to vacaie the first Of next
month or soon after.
Some time ago the directors appoin-
ted a committee 10 secure temporary
quarters for the summer. This com
miitee has found few available places
and are somewhat at loss where To
locate the Association for the summer.
Those most interested in the work feel
that how is the opportune time for Sc
curing "A modern YMCA building and
the question is being generally agita-
ted.
The meeting Friday evening was
called to get the views Of the public on
this important matter as we'll a. 70
hear the opinion OF men experienced In
YWCA work.

an outline of what associations are

During the evening petition was
handed to Mr. Holden containing the
names of some $50 young men asking |
the directors to make an effort TO Sc
cure building and pledgins their
hearty cooperation in the undertake

II is probable that before many days |
something definite will be decided |
upon by the directors either the rails

building or for the purchase of resi-
dence which can be made into a mo.

Nervousness IL very common among
women. This condition Is due to anemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoirs OF nervous vitality. These
centers become bloodless for want Of
proper nutrition.
This Is especially true in the spring
season. Every spring host Of invalids
are produced a. the direct result Of weak
nerves.
This can be easily obviated by using
Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root OF the
difficulty by correcting the digestion.

THIRST AFTER
INDIAN BLOOD
Citizens of Nye County, Ne
vada, Are in Angry Mood
Over Piute Depredations
RED MEN ARE RAMPANT
Unlawful Liquor Traffic Is
Responsible for Crime i'm
the Sagebrush State

The citizens of the southern part of
Nye County, Nevada, are threatening
to organize a vigilance committee with
view of stamping out the IL
quor traffic between white men
and Indians. In the thickly set
tied districts, like Tonopah. Cold
field and Kawich, the best order
prevails, but in the sparsely populated
sections of the more remote part of the
county there practically exists a reign
or terror as result of the drunken
acts of the Piutes. According to John
l.. Considine, Warden of Nevada's
State prison, who has been a guest at
the st. Francis Hotel for several days,
the citizens of Nye County are in an
exceedingly angry mood and it will
need but call from some good leader
to bring them together for the purpose
or adopting drastic measures against
the white men who are supplying Pi-
utes with liquor.
Although there are Federal and
State laws prohibiting the sale of
liquor to Indians" said Considine, 'for
some strange reason parts of Nye
County are not being properly protect
ed against this traffic. The Piutes
seem to have little trouble in getting
all the firewater they want and of late
they have been going on big drunks
and committing all kinds of depreda-
tions. In consequence many of Neva-
da's citizens have found it necessary
to take the law into their own hands
for self-protection, and tragedies ensue
which the outside world never hears of.
"Only recently County Treasurer
Gilbert was corraled on the main
street of Belmont, the county
seat, by drunken Indian, and
it was only Gilbert's alertness and
quick use of his pistol that saved his
life. The Indians life was sacrificed to
the lawlessness of certain white men
who were cruel enough to give the red
man whiskey. Another affair that can
be directly attributed to the unlawful
sale of liquor to Indians occurred lately
near Kawich. John Doherty, consult
ing engineer of the Kawich Mining
Company, was travelling from the COM
pany's mine to Goldfield one night
when a drunken Indian held him up
and compelled him to hand over a va
lise containing rich ore specimens that
Doherty intended to ship to San Fran
cisco to have made into quartz jewelry.
The specimens, worth, several hundred
dollars were afterward found scattered

he was warned. "for the last fellow
who had the job was fired for hittin'
up the booze too lively
Mr.. Sverto promised to be model
Of sobriety, and then they escorted
him to the Palace Hotel and intro
duced him to man whom they al
legged to be the wine merchant. He
made few inquiries as to Mr.. Sver-
to's habits and then engaged him on
the spot after receiving from him the
sum of $50 as security that he would
not disappoint his employer by failing
to report for duty the following morn
ing at Post street. When he ex-
pressed a desire to commence work
right then his shoulder was patted ap-
provingly and he was escorted to
Post street. where he was left stand
ing at the door while his guides dis
appeared through Lick Alley.
When the case was reported to the
police Patrolman Mick" Bakulich,
acting on Mr.. Sverto's description of
the trio, arrested Antonio Tolomi,
who was identified by Mr.. Sverto as
one of the two 'steerers' Judge Mo-

along the desert. All the Indian de-
sired was the valise, which took his
drunken fancy. After robbing Doherty
the Indian fired shot at his victim.
but fortunately the bullet went wide of
its intended mark and pierced the top
of the engineers buggy.
Incidents like these are arousing
general indignation among the settlers.

case or its kind. Nor do I presume to
instruct the. Police Department as to
the methods 1t should pursue in these
cases, but | think that If detectives
properly disguised were to buy pools it
would be easier to obtain conviction OF
the persons who sell them. If such evil
dence as that is brought here l will
convict the defendant. regardless of who
or what he is. That is all l have to
say at present about what is termed in
street parlance the passing of the
buck from the police to the magis-
trates when inquiry is made as to why
pool-selling cannot be suppressed.
These defendants are dismissed"
1t was on Grant avenue, near Sutter
street, that Jacob Sverto was accosted
by the two confidence men. He recent
ly came from Eureka, and when one of
them stopped him, took possession of his
hand. cordially wrung it and as cor
daily exclaimed, well, if 1t amt old

bunko was repeated. Mr.. Sverto, after
allowing himself to be convinced that
he was in company of a former ac-
quaintance, Immediately mentioned
that he was seeking employment. and
was Immediately requested to congrat-
