A FIERCE CHILLING.

A FIERCE CHILLING. What do you suppose will happen to the chap who habitually swipes another fellows jokes?" "Oh, he will probably have to listen to chestnuts all through eternity" WHAT, INDEED? Here lies man
 Who all his life Made fires each morn Ing for his wife. And what Is more, He split stove-wood And acted as
 A husband should. He sometimes swore And often drank, But from his tasks He seldom shrank And while he may With Satan be, Why he was doomed Is hard to see. The world Is full Of people who Aren't half so good, Or half so true. If that's the fate
 Of such as he, What chance is there For you and me?

MISTAKEN ZEAL.
BY DUNCAN NJ. SMITH

THE man who wanted goldenrod
The emblem of this nation
Was moi chap of very large
And ample Observation.
He never nursed hay fever through
A fearful. snlifiy season
With forty handiIerchiefs a day.
And that may be the reason
The golderrod looks very fne
When in the pasture waving.
But still. in spite of that. it does
A lot of misbehaving.
You wouldn't guess 70 see it there
It's modest colors wearing.
That i, would cause Line of speech
That sounds some like swearing.
For, in the breezes lightly swayed,
1t Sits abroad its pollen.
And there are many tales of woe,
And eyes are red and swollen,
And the afflicted can but flee
Away to Other places
Where blossoms that are not so rude
In autumn days keep cases.
To landscapes that were duh without
1t gives pleasant brightness.
1t is, although, on closer range
Not noted for politeness.
To view 1t from a railroad train
The bright effect Is pleasing.
But. little fishes. how 1t does
Induce world of wheeling!

tuberculosis ward for treatment. This
part Of the asylum is not 50 well guard

made his escape He was captured June

Further examination of the patient
fails to reveal any traces Of tuberculosis
and the man was today reeommitted to
the state prison on the governors order.
His sentence was for not less than two

Barre Citizens Petition TO
Stop Macadamizing
AND USE GRANITE BLOCKS
Petition States That the signers Believe
It. to the Best Good Of the
City to Lay Granite on
North Main St.

The start made this week by the
street committee Of the city council to
macadamize that portion Of North Main
street, beween Granite and Blackwell
streets, in accordance with vote Of the
council, has stirred up hornets nest
Of opposition from various sources,
members Of the board Of trade and the
granite manufacturers and quarry own
eds associations being particularly ac-
tive in opposition to the work. They
want the granite block pavement to be
continued.
To that end a petition has been drawn
up and addressed to Mayor Robins and
the board of aldermen, requesting that
the work Of matchmaking cease and
that the council substitute granite as
the building material. The petition
reads as follows:
"To the Honorable Mayor and Board
Of Aldermen:
"As work has been commenced tow
ard macadamizing North Main street,
near top Of Granite street, we, the un-
dersigned, believe that such action is
contrary to the best interests of the
city Of Barre and contrary 10 the pres
ent wishes Of the majority of the city
council, our conviction is that the
granite paving should be continued on
our Main street where there is so much
heavy traffic. This conviction is sub
stantiated BY reliable authorities and
also bv practically all Of our former
street committees who have recorded
themselves on the subject Of permanent
streets. Some Of these former street
committees gave the matter exhaustive
study going so far as to visit other
cities and thoroughly investigating the
conditions.
@We, therefore. protest against the
present work being continued and trust
your honorable body will take the nee
essarv action toward serving the best
interests Of the city Of Barre In regard
to permanent Main street."
The petition was circulated about
town today and was freely signed by
granite men, merchants and others.
Those back Of the project are not work.
ing under the authorization Of any one
Of the three orpaniza tions mentioned
above but all are known to be in favor
OF granite rather than macadam. The
board of trade recently voted in favor
Of granite blocks instead Of maeadam,
although no steps were taken to regis
ter a protest against the macadamizing
Of North Main street The granite
manufacturers and quarry owners ares
also known to favor granite blocks.
Some Of the abutting property own
ers on the street which is to be re-
paired are said to favor macadam in
stead Of granite blocks, the chief argu-
ment being that granite was too noisy.
The city has large force Of men at
work digging up that portion OF the
street next to Granite street prepara-
tory TO macadan1izing.
