Towns Leading Industry Has
100000 Loss This Morning
WILL PROBABLY REBUILD
Three Near by Dwelling Houses Also
consumed-Loss Partially Cover

Wilmington, Aug. 22:-The Noun
tain Mills, owned by the Deeraeld
Lumber company were burned just
after daylight this morning. Th3 fire
spread to three near by dwelling
houses which were destroyed out
most Of the lumber was saved.
The loss is estimated at about
100000 and was partially covered
by insurance but not nearly to the
value of the property. Mr.. Blandin,
president of the company is out OF
town but 1t Is thought that the mills
will be rebuilt as the company has
large tracts of timber land still un.
cleared and the railroad has recently
been pushed along up into Somerset
How the fire started is not known
1t was discovered just before o.
clock and had gained so much head
way that it could not be stopped
The Wilmington fire department
turned out but could do nothing. The
mills were equipped with pumps and
hose but the fire put these out of &C
tion before they could be gotten t.
work.
The fire is a great loss to Whining
ton as II was the only large industr!
in the town and was one of the larges
lumber plants in the state,

AT CIRCUS
Wheel Operators Reap Harvest
From GuIIibIes
SOME GOT BACK LOSSES
innocent Looking Chance Machines
Turned Into Sure Thing Winning
Schemes for Operators.

Several residents OF Bennington
who have apparently not yet learned
that the tin horn gamblers who In.
variably follow circus are not phi
got 'stung' Friday in the
side show ten at the circus. Luckily
for them number OF those who were
the most severely bitten eventually
got their money back.
AS soon as the tents were pitched
in the forenoon the sharpers began
operating two apparently innocent.
looking wheels which paid out cigars
and cheap jewelry to those who hit
the lucky numbers. During the fore
noon States Attorney w. ]. Meaghe-
and the local police officials made q
tour of the tents and saw no evidence
Of gambling other than the cigar,
jewelry and canethrowing games
which are accomplishments of almost
every fair, picnic and circus. Dur
ing the noon hour, however, the cigar
and the jewelry games we're switched
to financial basis and the gamblers
began to reap their real harvest.
Just how many people were skinned
or how much money was obtained OF
course win never be known but Il is
safe to say that every man who
played the machines to any extent
lost porto nof his roll.
Complaint was made by some o.
the victims to States Attorney W. J
Meagher who with an officer went t
the grounds to investigate. The oper
ators had wisely disappeared anC
could not be found. The states at

HISTORIC BENNINGTON
Need Of Marking Places Of Special
Historical interest.

Editor of the Banner:-In the Ban.
ner few days since an item appeared
calling attention to the fact of large
sized picture of the tall shaft which
stands on the crest of Bennington hill
This picture neatly framed is to he
seen in the Putnam House office.
There was almost mentioned in the
way of suggestion that similar pic
lures neatly framed be placed in the
hotels of prominent plcaes, like Rut-
burlington, Brattleboro, Lenox, Stock
bridge and other places too numerous
to mention, with the view of attract
ing attention of tourists to the fact
that in this beautiful town is to be
seen the highest battle monument in
the world.
The importance of another matter
is attracting attention, that of mark
ing in a suitable manner the many
historical sites which are to be found
in this Old town. The late George W.
Robinson was one of the best in.
formed men as to historic matters
that we had; he had great deal to
lido in the matter of erecting the monu
lnent and was a veritable encyclope
dia particularly as to localities need
ling suitable markers; a few of the
Isites have been marked but at least
twenty have been overlooked. Would
1t not be best If 1t were possible to
suitably mark. if only in simple way
these different places. Only a few
people know about these various site
and if not marked while some are liv
ing who konw about them perhap.
Will be lost sight of in other years,
