Among the Law Breakers.

Adolphus Shepherd was brought to the
county Jail from Barnet, Monday, by
Deputy Sheriff Garfield, where he was
arrested on the charge of disposing of
stolen property. A telephone message
informed Sheriff Winch of the presence in
Walden of Shepherd who was wanted on
the above charge, having sold horse on
which a Hardwick party had a claim,
and that Mrs. Cyrus Goethe was with
him. The latter was wanted on a charge
of kidnapping. Shortly after the birth of
child nine years ago, she departed
from Walden with a band of gypsies,
leaving her husband, worthless charac-
ter, and the daughter behind. The child
was given into the custody of the town
where it remained until four years ago,
when the mother appeared and asked
that she might take it with her for few
days. Permission was given and neither
Mrs. Goethe or the child were again
heard from until Monday. Shepherd
will be arraigned on the charge against
him, but it is doubtful if the kidnapping
charge will be pressed, as the girl has
again been delivered over to the Walden
authorities.
William Pocock was last Friday trans
ferred from the county Jail to the house
OF correction at Rutland under orders
from Governor Prouty.

First Wheel Clock,

Some say that Archimedes made the
first wheel clock as early at 200 B. G.
Others give credit to Wallingford, who
lived so late as the beginning of the
fourteenth century But the most per-
feet water clocks were, long before the
latter period. furnished with wheels,
so that the only improvement was the
substitution of a solid body to act as
a moving weight instead of water. 1t
Is not to be wondered at that the APP
plication of weight to clocks as
moving power should attract so little
attention, as water and sand were I'M
doubtedly thought more convenient by
contemporary writers. The oldest COM
plete clock moved by weights is prob
ably that sent by the sultan Of Turkey
to Frederick II. in 1882. In the thir-
teenth century many of the church
steeples in Italy were furnished with
clocks moved by weights, which struck
the hours. Hele of Nuremberg is sup
posed to have constructed the first
watch in 1900, and to him must also
be given the credit of the spring clock.
The fusee was probably invented in
England about the end Of the six
teenth century. But 1t was not until
the middle Of the seventeenth century
that the pendulum was first applied to
clocks by Huyghens.

Land Sales at FairlaWn.

Last week Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, and Monday afternoons
Pleasant street in Paddock Village was
crowded with all manner of teams and
with hundreds ofpeople. The occasion
was the real estate auction promoted by
T. B. Munroe & Co. of Boston, involv-
ing the public sale of the land owned by
the DR.. ]. R. Nelson estate. Beautiful
presents were given away to advertise
the auction and the attendance was
good. Among those who secured lots
are the following: Edison R. Jenkins, lots
one and two; George H. Stuart, lot No.
8; E. N. Brunette, lot No. 10; Herbert
Conley, No &c; Mrs. LaRue, No. 16 and
II; William Dane, No. 10; Irourg F.
Rouiard, No. 9.
The disposal of so much building
space to enterprising citizens is a decid-
ed forward movement in the towns

are watching the real estate in St.
Johnsbury. In fact, it was said the
other day by man who knows, that
land buyers were more anxious to hold
slices of real estate in St. Johnsbury,

Boar hunting in Brittany is full Of
exciting incidents, and the boars sell
dom die unavenged, for, though they
are beset by mounted hunters and
peasantry on foot armed with guns,
the lifeblood Of many a hound is
drawn before the savage old tusker

ers Of offense cease only with his last
gasp. Though the grip Of the bulldog,
the yelping Of the hounds, the din of

force him from his lair to seek refuge

down rather to prudence and disgust

Disposal of CeIIuIose Waste.

The waste waters of cellulose fac
tories contain organic matter which is
not in itself source of pollution to
streams into which 1t Is thrown, but
which may become noxious through
fermentation. The best method of
preventing fermentation, according to
Vogel, consists In diluting the wastes
very freely. This may be accomplish
ed by mixing together the ordinary
wash water and the alkaline baths in
which the raw materials have been
boiled for the purpose of freeing the
cellulose from other substances. The
mixture is then thrown into the stream
with violence in order to insure it's
rapid dissemination through the water.
1t is not necessary to neutralize wastes
laden with sulphurous acid if sufficient
dilution is secured, but It must be re-
membered that fish are killed by one
part (by weight of sulphurous acid in
100000 parts Of water.

Explaining the Railroad Accident.

The Public Service Commission have
reported their findings in the recent
derailment of the "Air line" near Barnet
and their official report here follows:
A public investigation as to the cause
of this accident held at St. Johnsbury
on July %, revealed the following facts:
On the Boston & Maine railroad,
about two miles north of the passenger
station at Barnet, there are a series of
reverse curves which have given that
section of the road the name of Snake
Alley"
About 4.14 p. m. on June 26, 1909, as
the regular north bound train, No. Al,
consisting of locomotive and seven
cars, and carrying about ITO passengers,
was rounding one of these curves at
speed of about 35 miles an hour, the
whole train was suddenly derailed,
doing hardly any damage to the equip
ment, and int1icting injuries to pas
sengers as follows:
Mrs. Timothy Lassond, Concord, N.
H., arm hurt; Mrs. l.. A. Shaw, St.
Johnsbury, rib broken; Miss A. !. Parker,
West Derby, arm injured; Morris Largv,
Littleton, an employee of the road,
bruised about The leg; Mrs. c. E. Graves,
Cambridge, Mass. arm hurt; F. E. Ring,
baggage master, Boston, Mass, should
er injured; Mrs. Addie Rogers, Plymouth.
N. H., bruised about the shoulder and
abdomen.
The train did not separate, nor was
the air brake mechanism at all injured,
but the engineer stopped the train by the
emergency application of the air brake.
The cause of this accident must be
largely matter of conjecture. We can
hnd no trouble with the ties, rails or
roadbed, though new rails had been or
dered for that section.
From all the evidence we are inclined
to think that the derailment was caused
by the linking" of the track due to the
expansion of the rails caused by the ex-
cessive heat on that day. We cannot
ind that the railroad is to blame in the
matter. 1t is wonderful that the acct
dent did not result in a greater disaster;
ana we have earnestly endeavored to
discover the cause so as to take meas
ures to protect the public in that regard.
but with only the result stated. We are
satisfied that this section of the road ;s
now IN hrst-class condition.

Edna Wood won the first prize, Eliza

the third. The Others did so well that
the Judges, which were Miss Charlotte
Morrill, and Mrs. Herbert Dean, and
Miss Farr of St. Johnsbury, thought
they also were entitled to a prize, so
they very kindly contributed, for each
25 cents. A piano and violin duet by
two little girls, Ethel and Hazel Ramage,

Prolific Strawberry Vines.

Colonel Frank Touvelle. a rancher
living near Medford. Ore, is said to
have produced deep rooted vine
which brings forth three crops of ber-
ries in season, which result has been
obtained by grating alfalfa roots on
the roots of the strawberry vine. says
the Scientific American. Alfalfa roots
deeply and produces three to five crops
year without irrigation. 1t occurred
to him that strawberries might do the
same if the vine could be made to ex-
tend down far enough, so as to receive
moisture from the soil throughout the
season.

THE NATIONS GROWTH.
Our Increase In Population Since the
First Census,

our increase IN reputation ONCE the
First Census.
At the first census but six cities re
ported a populG on of approximately
5000 inhabitants. Compared with this
number in 1900 there were 2S6 cities
and towns in the same area having a
population of 5000 or more. In Rhode
Island alone, the smallest of all the
states, there were more cities of 5000
inhabitants than there were in the en-
tire United States in 1870. The aggre-
gate population of all cities in the area
enumerated in 1890, which in 1900 re-
ported more than $4,000 inhabitants,
was 1S5,207 in 1890. and 10,259, 1856 in
1900.
Although the total population of the
United States increased rapidly from
1870 to 1900, the relative population
weight Of New York. Philadelphia,
Boston and Baltimore increased even
more rapidly. In 1890 their combined
population was but little more than
100000 and formed but "a per cent of
the population of the republic, but in
1900 it was approximately 100000, or
nearly fifty-eight times as great as in
1890, and formed 7.6 per cent of the
population of the republic. The pop
ulation in 1900 of the area actually
enumerated as comprising these four
cities in 1900 was 10000, or a skiold
increase of population within the origi-
nal city limits.
