A REORGANIZATION.
MiddIebury Business Men Meet
and Revive the Association. y

A profitable meeting was held in the
handsome suite of the Moosalamoo Club
last evening, when the assembly met Mr..
Fred. M. Sheldon, manager of the Great
er Vermont exhibit at the Champlain
celebration, to be held this summer.
Mr. Sheldon outlined the work of the
exhibit, and explained the plan of action,
meeting with substantial response, as
the sense of the meeting was evident that
Middlebury would DO its share, and be
represented in the exhibit.
The feasibility of organization being
discussed, the proposition of w. w.
Wood that the Middlebury Business
Mems association be revived, which
would be the most effective way to get
results, was unanimously approved, and
the same was done. The rules govern
ing the old body were adopted.
AS the organization had not met for
over year, it was thought advisable to
choose new officers, and this was done in
the selection, as follows: Pres, r. A
Cartmell; Vice Pres, w. w. Wood Sec,
E. p Seymour; Treas, f. w. Beckwith !;
member of Executive Committee, to
work with officers, n. s. Foote. The
meeting then adjourned, subject to the
call of the president.
The Moosalamoo club, where the meet
ing was held. has been changed in some
particulars, and now presents a view of
one of the finest suites in the State, and
much credit is due the membership, as
the club-rooms now combine beauty and
comfort in admirable style. Through the
courtesy of the club, the Business Mems
association will meet here,

SCOTT COMES BACK.
Chief Dean Returns From Portland
With Man Charged With Alb
duction Of Young Girl.

Chief of Police George Dean re-
turned from Portland Monday even
ing with Ernest Scott the man who
eloped some time ago with Genevieve
Ward of this city Dean left for
Portland armed with requisition pa
pers. He was accompanied by Prose-
cutting Attorney Campbell and it was
only after a hard fight, and by using
more than usual tact that the two
officials were able to bring Scott back
to this state for trial.
Miss Ward, the pretty 1G year old
girl whom Scott persuaded to run
away with him, agreed to appear
against him and on the arrival of the
Aberdeen men at Portland they found
that Scott was held in custody un-
der indictment by the grand jury,
which made it almost impossible to
secure his return. This was rendered
more difficult by the fact that Scott
would fight exradiction to Washing
ton BY the use of considerable di
plomacy. the District Attorney and
superior Judge We're persuaded to re-
lease Scott on his own recogniZance
UpOn being released he was immedi-
ately arrested by Chief Dean and
brought to this city. where he will
be tried on charge of abduc-
ton.
At a hearing before Judge Bush
this morning, Scott was held in de-
fault of 81. 800 bail to answer in the
superior court. and was taken to the
county Jail at Montesano this after
noon.
