Every community has happenings

Last year the great event lay in the
circumstances attending the disposal
of the boycott fund. Feeling in the
matter ran so high that at times a

of probabilities.
Today Honolulu's Chinatown is

account of the alleged grating and

Yee Bing was elected treasurer.

rebellious cause.
AS soon as Yee's friends read the
article they decided that if they want

As soon as the wagon arrived at head
quarters he jumped out and ran along

A youth who bore with smile benign

And wandered to the Young again,
But there his heart did nearly break
For they did say, ''We cannot take

He hied him to the Annex Grill
On oysters there to have his fill
But just before he gave his order
He read, 1--WE cannot take as boarder

Alas, the young cried in sorrow,
Il think I'll sail from here tomorrow.
But, sad to say, he was dreamer
They could not take upon the steamer
One tourist more.
Then back he rushed into the street
And woke copper on his beat,
Who hit him gently on his pate
And told him they could always slate

And by his side note which read,

FATE IS TO BE
DECIDED TODAY
Fairbanks Case in Hands
of the Jury.
DOUBT AS TO VERDICT
Attorney General Fits Concluded
Case for State This Morning After
Which Judge Haselton Delivered
His Charge-Week' Proceedings.

The fate of William Fairbanks will
be determined this afternoon. At
noon today the state had concluded
its ease and Judge Ilaselton was
about to make his charge to the jury.
Attorney General c. c. Fits occupied
practically all of the morning session
in making the closing argument for
the state and his effort was a mas
terly one. If there is any particular
weakness in the case of the state it
seems to be in the proof of the pre-
meditation theory. Throughout the
ordeal to which the alleged murderer
was obliged to submit this morning
in listening to the incisive words of
the attorney general, he maintained
the same stolid indifference which has
been the chief characteristic Of his
demeanor from the first. The only
noticeable change was a bit more
color in his face.

HIGH WATER
WORKS HAVOC
In Different Portions Of
Windham County.
GOLFER DAM UNHURT
In Spite of Flood the Structure Was
Not Materially Damaged and the
Delay to Progress VIII Be Slight
West River Road Tied UP.

Fall floods have again wrought
havoc in this section this week, the
extreme high water of the past few
days exceeding that Of last week and
doing much more damage. So satu-
rated is the ground with water that
every little shower has its effect on
the various streams. Following the
severe storm Of Saturday Wednes-
day s rain set all the brooks and rivers
in this part of the country on a ram.
page. West river was so high We'd
nesday night that the water was
several inches deep on the floor of
the power house of the Twin State
Gas & Electric company at West
Dummerston and it was necessary to
shut down the plant for the time be-
ing. MILESTONE brook rose rapidly
during Wednesday night and was a
raging torrent yesterday morning,
carrying out a small dam in Marlboro
owned by Holden & Martin of this
town. The Connecticut river reached
a higher point yesterday than has
been known in the fall since 1869. 1t
is dropping gradually at present.
In spite of the high water, how
ever, the damage done to the Golfer
dam of the Connecticut River Power
company at Vernon is slight and
knowledge of this fact is extremely
reassuring to those financially inter-
ested in the enterprise as well as to
everyone else who realizes what the
dam will eventually mean to the COM
mercial life of this section. All sorts
of rumors were afoat yesterday as
to the fate of the Golfer dam and the
immense damage that had been done.
None of these has the slightest found
alton of fact. Some of the woodwork,
it is true, has been carried away but
the actual damage is so small as to
be inconsiderable from a financial
standpoint and to amount to little in
the way of delay.

RIVER AT RECORD POINT.
Golfer Dam, However, Stands Firm
Stockwell Island Gone.


Water at the dam site reached its
record point yesterday morning at
about 9 clock when it stood six
inches higher on the gauges than it
did a week ago Tuesday. While the
increase over last week s flood looks
small according to these figures the
volume of water was fully one-fourth
greater, it being estimated that over
70. 900 cubic feet of water per second
was passing the dam site yesterday
morning. The Golfer dam was almost
completely submerged, but a small
portion of the wood work being Wis
ible above the surface. After the
flood of a week ago Tuesday the river
dropped eight feet and the contract
ors were hoping for still further
decrease when the rain of Saturday
came. This raised the river five feet
but it had dropped three feet pre-
vious to the storm of this week. Dur
ing Wednesday night the water rose
615 feet and remained at this height
all day yesterday. ...
In spite of this immense volume OF
water the damage to the Golfer dam
was slight A portion of the super
structure of the upstream crib was
washed away, carrying with it some
of the planking, and the lower crib
suffered in the same way only to
less degree. The trestle which sup
ported the railroad on the Golfer was
also washed off and the foundations
of two large derricks were under
oil 10
damage in dollars and cents G. ).
Hewins, New England manager of
the Loring, Farnum company, stated
Yesterday to Reformer representa-
tive that the cost of repairing the
Golfer dam would be little more than
81 900. He said about $500 worth of
planking, 5000 worth of logs and the
cost of the attendant labor would
comprise the total expense.
To take the place of the foot
bridge which was carried away last
week the contractors rugged a ferry
boat which was operated by steam
winch. This was operated success
! fully until Wednesday night when the
cables became so clogged with debris
that it was necessary to abandon it.
| Abutments are being laid for a new
suspension bridge which will cross the
river from a point directly in front
of the administration building on the
Vermont shore to the extreme west
end of the upstream crib. This will
| be completed as soon as the water
recedes sufficiently to allow anchor
ing the east abutment
Work was standstill at the dam
site all day yesterday, and to cas-
ual observer it looked as if many
days would elapse before it could be
taken up again. The contractors,
however, expect that the river will
recede rapidly from now on and do
not anticipate any lengthy cessation
of labor.
The island just below the Golfer
dam has been almost completely
