LIBEL FOR DIVORCE.
ADDIE E. BRIDGE
PERLEY B. BRIDGE


State of Vermont, Washington
County, SIS.
In County Court, September Term,
1909.
Whereas Addie E. Bridge of City
of Barre, in the County of Washing
ton, has this day filed in the Office of
the clerk of said court, her libel for
divorce against Perley B. Bridge of
parts unknown in the State of Cal
ifornia, setting forth in substance
that she was lawfully married to the
said Perley B. Bridge at Wolcott,
County of Lamoille and State of
Vermont on the 18th day of May,
A. D. 1894, that she on her part
had faithfully kept the mar
riage covenant, and performed all
the duties appertaining thereto; but
that the said libellee on his part
had not kept the marriage covenant
but had violated the same; for that
the said libellee during said cover
ture had treated the libellant with
intolerable severity; for three con-
secutive years had wilfully deserted
the libellant; being of sufficient pc
cuniary and physical ability, had,
without cause, grossly, wantonly and
cruelty refused and neglected to pro-
vide suitable maintenance for the Ii
bellant; and praying that, for the
causes aforesaid, the Court would
grant her divorce from the said
Perley B. Bridge and the custody
of the minor children.
And whereas, it is made to ap-
pear that the said Perley B. Bridge
resides and is without this state
where service of the process of this
court cannot be made upon him
therefore it is ordered that the said
Perley 3. Bridge be given notice of
the tendency of said libel, given op-
portunity to make defence therein
and summoned to appear and make
answer thereto before the Honorable
County Court next to be held at
Montpelier within and for the
County of Washington and State Of
Vermont, on the second Tuesday in
September, A. D. 1909, by publica-
ton of the substance of said libel
together with this order in the YER
mont Waterman, weekly Newspaper
published at Montpelier in the Coun-
ty of Washington, three weeks sue
cessively, the last of which publ
cations shall be at least six weeks
prior to the second Tuesday in Sep
TENDER, A. d. 1909, which shall be
deemed sufficient notice to the said
Perley B. Bridge.
Given under my hand at Montpel-
Ter in the County of Washington, this
18th day of May, A. D., 1909

of Waterbury and Assistant Judge
Wells and Clapp, the cost price be-
ing $2,SS7 for the county. The con-
tract calls for a plant to heat both
buildings, the steam boiler to be To-
Gated probably in the court house it
self, while the short distance be-
tween it and the Jail makes it pos
sible to heat both buildings with
ease. The total amount which could
be legally expended, is $500,
which is raised by direct tax in the
county.
Five bidders made offeds for the
work, but that of Mr.. Cooley proved
to be the most satisfactory to the
Judges and his price was accepted.
Specifications on both propositions,
the separate plants and the one
central plant, were placed in the
hands of the several bidders and
they were asked to make estimates
on both systems, it being discov-
cred finally, that the central plant
was the most feasible of the two. The
other unsuccessful bidders were:
Peck Bros, of Montpelier, The Mont
pelier Plumbing G. Heating Co., N
D. Phelps & Co., of Barre and c. H.
Goss Company of st. Johnsbury.
The prices made by these concerns
is unknown.

CHILDREN KNOCKED DOWN.

Little Daughter of w. A. Ellis Badly
Bruised. Horse OF Cardini & PrariO
Does the Damage.
Probably the only thing that saw
ed Charlotte Ellis, the little daugh-
ter of w. A. Ellis, Rachel Bancroft,
the older daughtr of Mrs. Harriet
H. Bancroft and Joseph Arand Laird
the little son. of f. L. Laird, from
serious injury and perhaps instant
death on Friday was the fact that
runaway horse with wagon at
tached slackened his maddened pace
slightly for a team on Main street
as 1t attempted to make the corner
at State and Main in front of the
McCuen store where the children
were struck.
The little Ellis girl and the Ban
croft child were knocked to the
ground and the former lay on the
sidewalk unconscious when John L.
Sterling of the Apollo club, who wit
messed the accident, picked her up
and carried her to the Ennis barber
shop in the Opera House block. DR..
w. r. Hardness was found and up
on examining the child came to the
conclusion no bones were broken.
The wind was knocked out of the
child and several thought at first
that she was dead, but when her fa-
Their arrived she had recovered and
was able to be taken home. She was
badly bruised about the face and
ear but not seriously injured. The
Bancroft child was not hurt at all
and was taken home by Ralph B.
Denny, neither was the Laird boy,
who Immediately following the ac-
cident ran away. Had it not been
for the team of Berry and Jones that
was on Main street at the time down
toward the Cross bakery there would
have been a more sad story to tell.
The horse than ran away was
owned by the grocery firm Of Cardini
G. Prario of Barre street Guidi
Cardini had driven down to the Cen
trail Vermont freight depot and left
the horse standing outside while he
went inside. There was no weight
attached to the animal. While he
| was inside the horse became fright
ened at something, although there
! was no train in the yard at the time
| 1t started on a mad run up State
street and was going so fast that il
| could not make the corner at State
street and eye-witnesses say that il
looked as though it would &c
through the window of the McCuer
| store. The horse struck the chill
dren who had stopped on their way
from school to look in at the store
| windows and were then on the side
walk. The animal fell in the coils
ion but soon regained it's feet ant
ran around the bill board in from
of the Opera House block and afteI
colliding with a team on the stree
was caught on Haymarket Square
One wheel of the wagon was smash
ed to smitherines and the horse wa
somewhat cut about the feet. Thu
wagon did not pass over the chill
dren.

hoping that they might possibly have
connection with Gulfport or some 9th

correspondents could not be reacned
either by telegraph or telephone,
While all this was being done, tel
egram went out from The News Of
flee direct to Melvill E. Stone. gen
eral manager of that greatest OF news
gathering Institutions, the Associated
Press. This telegram urged Mr.. stone
to try and -iye the citizens of Hatties
burg. through The News, something

While all these lines were out TO
the purpose of gathering news of the
hurricane, representatives of Th'
