A. K. lNGRAHAM DEAD
Well Known Vsteren Who Formerly Lived
In, Bennington.

Word was received Monday of the
death at the Soldiers home in Chelsea,
Mass of Albert X. Tngraham. former
resident of this village and veteran
of the civil war serving in the 10th
Massachusetts Infanty.
Mr. Ingraham had most unusual
experience during the war. He was
terribly shot and was left on the field
for dead. Later it was discovered he
was alive and was hurried to a near
by hospital. The surgeon in charge
felt there was absolutely no chance for
the man to live. and paid little atten.
tion to him, preferring to give his at
tention TO men who he felt had some
chance.
The injured man showed such vita
lily, however, that the surgeon The
next day took little extra care OF
him and his life was saved. He was
under the doctors care for upwards OF
three years, however, a portion Of b
side having been shot away.
When he returned home after being
discharged from a hospital he weighed
but 80 pounds.

SLOT MACHINES BARRED.
Mayor of Cincinnati orders Thcii
Removal Immediately.

CINCINNATI. O., March 16-Mayol
Fleischmann issued an order directing
the police to cause the removal of all
slot machines in Cincinnati. This ac
ton is based on an opinion rendered
by the city solicitor to the effect that
machine simply uSel as mechanical
sales agent for the delivery Of an
article of value is not Il gambling de.
vice.
An instrument, however, in which
money is deposited and there is an
element Of chance rs to whether there
is return of value to the depoSitor
is a gambling device, the operation .of
which is a violation of the law.
The police will give notice TO each
owner that arrests will follow failure
to remove machines by April l. it is
estimated that 10000 of the machines
are operated in Cincinnati, doing u
daily business amounting to $4,000.

BAD AIR THE CAUSE.
Common Sense Diagnose, Of the Prevailing
Diseases OF Winter.


Miss Georgia White, the bright To-
cal editor OF the Randolph Herald,
thus writes concerning the causes OF
the prevailing distemper:
"This winter has been distinguished
by steady cold weather, alleged by the
medical fraternity to be conductive to
good health. There has been no vari-
ableness except in the number of de
grees below zero, until early last week
when the caves dripped for the. first
time since November. Yet it seems as
though never had there been any more
sneezing, coughing, aching. grooming
mortals in the clutches ofthe grip than
this present season.
"The Prevailing Distemper has
stalked abroad like an ill.tempered
bully, striking out to the right aud
left and hitting everybody straight be-
tween the eyes. Schools have been de-
pleted, and it has been possible to
proiIer to the pastors without embar-
rasmentthe frayed and tattered excuse
of illness for non attendance at divine
worship. When good, snappy enter
tainments lack for patrons, as they
have lacked this winter, some little
Confidence can be placed in general
plea of poor health on Sunday.
"But why in the embracing atmo.
sphere Of 80 below should the units Of
the population be preyed upon by mi
crobes until they look as worm-eaten
as the leaves of "A tree invested by for.
est tent caterpillars? If cold is brac-
ing and strengthen g we ought to be
sovigorous as tomake "a Sampson seem
miserably puny in comparison.
"One reason no doubt is that we are
inclined to hibernate as soon as cold
weather comes. We bank up our
houses, screw on the double windows
stop up every crack and Granny. start
our fires and attend strictly to keeping
warm. The pure air Of heaven, the
greatest antiseptic in the world for
coughs, colds and lung troubles, is
carefully excluded, and we contentedly
breathe the same old atmosphere which
we bottled up in the fall for family use
until spring. Really it gets more com
mon than a cud of gum in "a district
school where nobody knows or cares
who had it last.
"Going into the house after being
out doors for the first time is like step
ping into a breathess oven and the
person who has had his lungs filed
with oxygen and the purified blood
coursing through his veins feels as
though each breath he drew scorched
him; he grows headachey and almost
invariably catches what is called a
cold, though it is really hot.
SAT night people lay them down to
sleep with the windows all shut tight
for fear they may get Whit of air
less than three months old and not in
frequently try to make the atmosphere
as vitiated as possible by filling the
apartment with house plants.
''No wonder the grip horishes when
it is so painstakingly cultivated, and
that nearly every dwelling is on some
doctors visiting list. The wonder is
that in such conditions any one man
ages to live till spring.
"Open doors and windows three
times a day and let the sharp wind
sweep through the house with more
cleansing effect than forty new brooms;
then sleep with window wide open,
and cough syrnps and mustard plas-
ters will cease TO be in so great de-
mand.'

Stories OF the Great Tamaono

The death Of Signor Tamagno has
brought forth some curious stories of
the great tenor. vouched for by his
impresario. It would appear that. dc.
spite the enormous sums hc earned by
his voice, tho singer was particularly
miserly. On ono occasion, while liy.
Ing In hotel in Moscow, he noticed
that fresh candles were supplied to
him daily. whether tho old ones were
burned down or not. InuuirInc tho
reason for this, he learnt that tho can.
die ends were tho pcrquisitcs of tho
walters. Thercupon hc himself began
to collec; the candles. and on leaving
the hotel he distributed the ends I'm
lieu of tips. An another occasion. this
time In Berlin. hC had two poachcd
eggs and bottle OF mineral water for
supper. and added to the latter n bot.
tic Of wine. produced from his pocket,
which he had COntSivcd TO annex nj
banquet given In hi1 honor In Prnruc
two days before.
