Herman Knoll prominent and we'll
TODD retired farmer living at Haver
hill, met tragic end Thursday after
noon, when he was drowned in the
eight feet of water contained in his
cistern. No one witnessed the accident
and no discovery was made until Mrs.
Knoll returned home about 1850, after
being gone for the day, and noticed the
cisrern uncovered. knowing this to be
strange she investigated and discovered
her husbands hat floating in the water.
Neigllbors We're summoned and the
body was found at the bottom of the
cistern.
Knoll was last seen alive shortly be-
fore 4 O'clock when neighbor, Mr..
Weisendorf, noticed him as he went
thru a gate. The body was removed
from the cistern about 4:30, so that
death could not have taken place longer
than a half hour before. .Altho every
effort was made to resuscitate the body
no sign of life could be brought about
The cistern was covered with trap

fastened by hinges. This door being VI

How Mr. Knoll happened to fall into

Naturally the thought of suicide
came 10 mind in view of the strange
ness of the accident but from all state

was nothing known that would indi-

to end his life. He was in good health,
happy, and contented, and the family
secuted the theory. Coroner Jay, who
was called, conducted an inquest, and
the jury returned a verdict of accident

composed of Henry and Bernard Ko-

News reports say that business men
and grangers are laying out cam
paign for tariff revision that they
consider honest. The report says {:
IF President Taft, Speaker Cannon
and Senator Aldrich cherish the
thought that the tariff has been dis
posed of for an indefinite number of
years it is because they are unaware
of a countrywide movement to agi-
tate the subject at the coming session
of Congress. That program has
been mapped out for the purpose of
sagitating tariff revision with as much
vigor as that which characterized the
campaign of 1907-o8."

STAY EAST.

The Monitor believes the following
from the Bellows Falls Times such
good gospel truth that it feels moth.
ing it can say would add to the value
of the editorial. If fasteners would
chang together" and blow their own
horns as westerner does miraculous
changes would be wrought in Vermont
and New England.
A former Vermonter, a native of
Grafton, now resident of Seattle,
Washington, is about the frankest
Vermonter it has ever been our pleas
ure to know about. In letter to the
Times he says: "While there are great
opportunities here in Seattle for
young men with brains and money to
invest, my advice to young men in YER
mont is to look around there, for in
Vermont are just as many opportun-
tiles if they will only grasp them.
They should not think for a moment
that they can pick gold up in the
streets of Seattle for they can t. " This
is the testimony of a man who has
lived in the northwest a good many
years and has made splendid success
in his profession. This kind of evi.
dence is truly refreshing. We who
have remained at home and borne the
heat and burden of the day have been
convinced that there are good oppor-
tunities for young men at home but it
has been difficult to convince the
young men themselves, ard our
efforts have not received much back
ing from former Vermonters who
have driftad into other states. These
int l.
die west and far west by the thousands
and they have gone because they be-
lieved that opportunity out there was
crying with loud voice. They have
formed their Vermont societies and
profess an interest in the state OF
their birth. Occasionally they honor
the old state by making a visit to the
old home. On such occasions it is but
natural tFaJ they should want tc
leave the impression that they have
been remarkably successful. They

My Lady's Lad.


Where did you get that hat?
Who ever did
Invent lads lid
Like that?
Who had the nerve to roll it out,
And stretch it more and more
From centrepiece to rim, until
1t spreads from shoe to shore,
And likewise lifts it's summit up
On birds and other things?
Who added to it's wondrous width
Of brim, so that the space
Could easily accommodate
An automobile race?
Say, who done that?
Who built her hat?
Who made it something never seen
On earth or in the sky,
A fiat of wide extended plain,
A mountain towering high?
Cut wider doors for her to get
Inside of any place,
And put the ceiling on the roof
To give her nodding space.
Push up the clouds to let her stand
Erect upon the ground.
And shove the wide horizon back
To let her turn around.
Oh, weirdly witching, WOODY hat
That fattens out and towers;
Who ever saw thing like that
A pancake filled with flowers?
A hat contagious spreading? Yes.
That names the Merry Wid.;
And she who fails to catch it should
Slip out and change her lid.
Gee whiz
What a wonder woman is !:
And my scat
where did she get that hat?
