vERMONT'S HIGHWAYS.
County Rond Supervisors Planning the
Seasons work.

A meeting OF county road supervisors
was held at the Van Ness House Thurs
day. state Highway Commissioners
emit and general plane for the season 3
work were taken up and discussed. Mr.
Gates reported that the plan OF having
county supervisors who were appointed
some time ago under the new highway
laws was wording without a hitch, and
because of the extra appropriation for
highways voted by many towns II Ia eX-
pected that much more work and OF a
better class will be done. The meeting
was attended by nearly all of the super
vsors. and was a general round up of a
series of meetings that have been held
throughout the State AS yet no super
visor has been appointed for Grand Isle
county, but Mr. Gates will probably APP
point one little later. The supervisors
who were present at the meeting Thurs
day were: j. f. Buttoph of Middebury.
Herald Stevens of burlington. George r..
Temple of bunenburgh. j. c. Towle Of
Enosburgh Falls, h Smith of Man
chester GeorgeGO. Ford of East St.
Johnsbury. j. b. Wells OF Randolph. s.
T. Bates of Derby, r. S. Currier of Barre.
J.. J. Cahee Of Brandon, David r. Perry
Of Brattleboro. NJ G. Moves Of Grand Isle.
With the $4,000 appropriated by the
State and the $4,000 voted by 1883 towns
as a special appropriation, nearly $4,000
will be expended this year on Vermont
highways over what was expended last
year.

STANFORD SORE AT
NEVADA MANAGER
SWITCH IN DATES DOES NOT
PLEASE CARDINALS
University Team VIII Come to Los
Angeles at End of This Week
to Meet castaways at
Rugby

Students of Stanford University are
very much incensed over the action of
the University of Nevada in changing
the date of the game between Stanford
and Nevada without securing the con-
sent of the Cardinals athletic manager.
When a game was arranged with the
sage brushers some time ago the date
was set for October 26. The manager
of the Nevada bunch rearranged his
schedule of games, putting Stanford down
for the I'd or 18th of -Iovember. Ine
Stanfordites claim that this is only
move on the part Of the Reno team to
get out of the game with Stanford al
together The I'd, they say, they nave
a game with Vancouver, and the 18th
would be after their season is over.
No contract was signed with Nevada
for the game scheduled for October 26,
and unless Nevada will name some other
date than the two already mentioned
the game will be declared off.
The Stanford Seniors defeated the
Juniors last Wednesday by score of IL
to 0, the playing being all in favor of the
seniors. The Sophomores were given the
game over the Freshmen by default and
fhey will line up against the Seniors for
the final game of the series on Tuesday.
Saturday of this week the Stanford
Varsity will play the Los Angeles Cast
aways in Fiesta park. Coach Hemple OF
st. Vincent's college guarantees the
Cardinal players $3.50 with which to pay
the expenses of the trip.

nastic stunts much to the aggravation
of the shooters.

After Trade representatives Leave

This is the last day of the shoot at
Sherman under the auspices of the West
ern Gun club. Some splendid scores have
been made during the past two days and
if conditions of wind and weather are
all right today the scores should run
higher than during the opening periods
of the tourney.
A large attendance is expected today.
Yesterday and the day before about thir-
ty-five shooters were taking part Mem
sbers of the Western Gun club we're
Conspicuous by their absence and had
it not been for a few members of the
Los Angeles Gun club who wandered out
to compete for amateur stakes the visit
ing marksmen would have been left to
entertain themselves.
Yesterdays shoot was marred to some
extent by peculiar haze or some phe-
nomenon of the atmosphareic conditions
