A SPLENDID SUGAR SEASON.
Makers Have Been Extremely Busy for
the Past Several Weeks.

From the makers standpoint the maple
sugar season drawing TO a close has been
the most profitable for the past five years.
The quantity OF sugar and syrup produced
is about double that made in an ordinary
season and while the quality as a whole
has not been so good as in exceptional
years ii is first class The first run OF sap
always produces the whitest sugar and
many consider it of better flavor. The
first run this season lasted but a few days
before it was stopped by warm nights and
rainy weather. After a few days Of I'M
favorable weather the thermometer
dropped again. The cold and snow OF last
week made practically a second season and
while the sugar produced during that TIME
was darker in color and not quite so fine
in flavor it answers the purpose for which
it was intended in all respects,
Notwithstanding the large amount OF
sugar and syrup that has been made the
prices have held high this year. The best
sugar has sold as high as Is and 30 cents
while fancy quality of syrup has brought
from SlO0 to SIPS a gallon. More sugar
and syrup have been shipped from the To-
cal express office this year than for
number OF years past. During last week
alone about 1000 pounds were sent away.
1t is the first year in a long time that
there has been sugar enough made in this
section to supply more than the local de-
mand, considerable quantity having been
sent to wholesale houses in Worcester and
Boston.

RETURNED AFTER is YEARS.
Daughter Of Watson S. French Sup.
posed Her Father Was Dead.

A family reunion has taken place in
Brattleboro this week as the result of the
return after an absence of Is years of the
daughter of Watson S. French. When
three years of age the girl, Lila, was sent
to the Cooper Home in Massachusetts,
Mr.. French at that time being of law
breaking turn of mind and spending more
time in Newfane and Rutland than in the
bosom of his family. She was later
adopted into family in Pawtucket, R. l..
There seems to have been method in the
adoption as the young girl was put to
work in the Conant thread mill in the
place when she was II years old and kept
at work for the four years, the family col,
Letting her wages as soon as they were
due. The girl was not abundantly sup
piled with either spending money or
clothes. In some way she heard that she
had brothers and sisters in this town and
by close saving managed to get together
small amount of money. A short time
ago she decided to come to this town and
look up her family. She had been told at
the home that her father had died in Jail
and of course believed the story. She
came here the first nart of the week and
had no difficulty in locating her family.
She was surprised and overioyed to find
that her father was living and had re-
formed. She is at the present time stay
ing with her father at his home on the
Marlboro road.

BrattIebOrO Local
WOULD LOCATE A
FACTORY IN TOWN
Edward Wilbur, Formerly of This
Town, Wants to Manufacture Pat
ented Pipe Joints Here If He
Can Organize Stock Company.

Edward Wilbur of Boston, a former
Brattleboro man, was i'll town Tuesday
to meet the BrattlebOro board of trade
officials and consult with them in re-
gard to locating a new industry in this
town. Mr.. Wilbur about 10 years ago
was employed in the grocery store of
Henry Simonds. Later he went to Bos-
ton and was employed until a short
time ago by the Boston Woven Hose
and Rubber company. Mr. Wilbur re-
Gently resigned his position to devote
all his time to manufacturing an i'm
proved joint or coupling for piping
The device is patented and Mr.. Wilbur
holds the rights. He already owns a
factory and some machinery in Cam.
bridge, Mass, but is DESTROYS of locat
ing somewhere else He claims that a
iobbing house has agreed to take all of
the couplings that can be manufac-
tured
Mr.. Wilbur met a number of local
manufacturers Tuesday and discussed
the project with them at length. He
says he is willing to turn in his patent
rights and his factory and machinery
in Cambridge if the town will subscribe
for stock to the amount of $4,000.
When this is done he guarantees to en-
ploy about 40 men at the start and is
confident that he can increase the num-
Der to 100 within a year. Most of the
men would be skilled laborers and
draw good pay.
The local board of trade has APP
pointed a committee consisting of NJ.
Austin, jr., E. d. Whitney and F. r.
Vaughan, who will go to Boston in
short time to investigate Mr.. Wilbur s
claims and report to the board of
trade directors. The town of Orange,
Mass, is also interested in Mr.. Will
bur's proposition.

Thomas NJ. Moreland was instant
ly killed in front Of the Santa Fe de-
pot last Sunday morning while try
ing to alight from No. 8. He was
thrown under the wheels Of the
swiftly moving train and his body
horribly crushed and mangled. The
only thing found upon his person
from which the remains could be
identified was a receipt for month S
subscription to the Pueblo Star
Journal. issued on February 22d. to
Thomas NJ. Moreland. Of Rocky
Ford. There were no letters or
papers and not cent Of money. He
was beating his way on the blind"
Of No. 5 from Las Animas. in COM
pany with Charles Cook. of this city,
and made an attempt TO alight from
the train before it reached the de-
pot. Cook was successful. but when
he looked around failed to discover
his companion. and in making a fur
ther search found Moreland's re-
mains under the wheels.
Moreland has been resident of
Otero county for several years. and
lived in Fowler. Rocky Ford and
Swink. Until recently he conducted
a skating rink at Swink, and only
the day previous to his death made
inquiry of City Clerk Steward at
the City Hall as to the cost of secur-
ing a skating rink license in La
Junta. saying that it was his inten-
tion to open rink in this city in the
Jones' block on West First street.
Coroner Burr came down from
Rocky Ford Sunday morning and in
vestigated the affair but decided
that an inquest was not necessary.
Matt Moreland. of Fowler, a son of
the deceased, who was sixteen years
old on the day his father was killed
came down from that place Monday
morning, and in the afternoon went
to Rocky Ford and Swink in an eff
fort to locate some Of his fathers
effects. but up to the present time
has not been able to do so.
The funeral took place last Tues
day afternoon, the remains being in
TERED in Riverview cemetery.

NestIings' Appetite.

The Unsuitable appetite Of young
birds, and, indirectly, the benefits which
a community receives from the pres
ence of Intoxicating birds, is admira-
bly, brought out in a study made by
the students of the University of Indi-
ana, at the biological station at Winona
Lake.
Relays of students, according to the
Nature Study Review, placed them
selves In a position TO observe contin-
uously from daylight to dark the move
ments in the nests of an orchard orr
ole, pewee, a phoebe and wren, all
of which belong to the insect-consum-
ing class of birds
The little wren's nest, In which there
were five birds about days old, was
a scene Of great activity, and in the
nine hours and twenty-six minutes the
little bird family was under observa-
ton the nestlings were fed 113 times,
most of the food being foraged by tie
male bird, but distributed by The
mother bird.
The food consisted Of cutworms
grasshOppers, cabbage worms and sun
dry smaller insects which were not
identified.
The nest of the phoebe, which con
tanned two young birds 4 days DID,
gave evidence of the first activity at
4 20 a. M, and between that time and
p. m. when it began to rain, the
young birds had received 260 Install
ments of dinner. The voracity of the
orioles and pewees were equally re-
markable
