Autoist Killed at Center Rutland.
Herbert Burns of Proctor, aged 20, was
killed and William Squires, chauffeur,
aged as years, also Of Proctor, was badly
injured Sunday afternoon when Rut-
land railroad freight train struck the au
tomobile In which they were riding at a
crossing at Center Rutland near the YER
mont Marble company's Office.
Both men were employed by the Yer
mont Marble company, squires having
charge OF the company's automobiles. He
was teaching Burns how to run the ma
chine, the steering wheel being in the
hands of the latter at the time. The ma
chine was running slowly and it is be-
lieved that Burns saw the approaching
train when near the crossing, as the car
was brought nearly to standstilL
I It is the opinion Of eye witnesses that
the young man thought that the car
would stop on the track and for this rea-
son threw on the power, the machine
landing on the track just ahead of the en-
CINE, which was running rapidly. When
Squires saw that there would be a COLI
sion be jumped, but not in time to avoid
being hit.
Burns body was nearly cut in two and
death was instantaneous. Squires was car
ried to the Proctor hospital in an smbu-
lance and, although lac is badly bruised,
no bones are broken, and it is not
thought bis injuries viii prove fatal un-
less he was injured internally.
The automobile was wrecked beyond
repair.
Village Named After Max Evarts.
Following a heated discussion az a spe-
cial meeting of several hundred citi-
zens of West Hartland Friday evening, it
was decided to change the name Of the
village to Evarts. ]. II. Dunbar, the So
cislist candidate for governor last fall,
read letter which he had received from
Gaylord Wiltshire, in which the latter
stated that he would give to West Hart
land a library costing about II, 900, to be
known as the Gaylord Wiltshire library,
| if the name Of the village was changed tc
Wiltshire. Then the name Evarts was
presented, as the one which the majority
of the citizens wanted.
! Maxwell Evarts. it was said, would
F. without doubt be governor of the stat,
, soon. and it was an honor to any town L
bear his name. The vote resulted in
plurality of 81 for Evarts. When the re
! suit was announced, a great demoRstra
ton followed. Some women tainted, " hill
others who had taken their children
along had all they could do to keep then
from being trampled upon in the excite
g ment. To make the vote doubly sure,
. petition was sent out Saturday signed B.
D., 100 taxpayers. Maxwell ESarts, 70
whom the village will be named, is tn
Z son of the late U. S. Senator William NJ
e Evsrts of New York and is president @
= the State Fair commission.
