Both are usually made in India of
leather, but never of pigskin, and
while the shoes are always colored red

WILL BUILD NEW PLANT.
COrry-Deayitt-FrOst Decide to Build
Second Power Plant.

The Corry-Deavitt-Frost company
has decided to proceed with the err
ection of a second power plant, to
be located on the Winooski river
about one mile above the present
plant situated at Kinney's Mills, and
will be capable of producing about
1000 horse power. The plan has
been in the minds of the owners
from time to time and hints of the
proposed project have been men,
toned previous to the final an
nouncement, which makes the idea
a reality.
P. S. Terrill of the General Elec-
trio Company, has been engaged to
take charge Of the new station and
will undertake the construction
shortly. Mr.. Terrill has had consid-
cradle experience in this line of
work and his service as an ex-
pert are not to be duplicated lin this
section of the country. The present
demand for electric power, seems in
the estimation of the directors of
the company to warrant the erec-
tion of this second plant and the
work will be begun in the near flu
ture.

PLACED ON PKUBATION.
Carl RecOr Who Opened Letter Last
Thursday Night, Given Another

Carl Recor, who confessed to hav-
ing opened a sealed letter which
was to have been mailed on the
midnight train from Barre last
Thursday evening, was brought into
city court Monday morning and was
placed on probation pending his
good behavior. Recor pleaded
guilty to the charge of larceny last
Saturday morning and the matter
was postponed until Monday,
when disposition was to be made of
the case. Recor has always borne
good reputation and his friends
were exceedingly surprised to find
that he was mixed up in scrape of
this kind.
Judge Harvey took all things in
to consideration and decided that
the proper thing to do was to give
the lad another chance, as he is too
old to be sent to the reform school
and term in Jail would only mean
a stain on his record that would be
irreparable. The probation officer
recommended his being placed on
probation and after making out a
list of rules for his behaviour,
Judge Harvey gave the Roy over to
the custody of Mr.. Thomas. The
rules promulgated by the court
contain commands to obey all the
laws of this state, to abstain from
the use of tobacco and intoxicants,
to cease to frequent pool rooms and
railway depots, to secure employ
ment at once, preferably outside
this city, and to make report to the
probation officer at such times as
that officer shall designate.

DIR. WATSON RETURNS.
Gives Very Interesting Account of
Business in Los Angeles.

DR.. H. A. Watson arrived here
last night from a seven months
trip on the Pacific coast. DR.. Wat
son gives a very interesting des
cription of that city. The city is in
very prosperous condition. 1t has
over 1900 MANUFACTURERS. DR.. Wat
son says that he thinks the pros
perity of the city is due largely to
the patronizing of home industries.
The electric system in that city is
the second finest in the United
States, both the lighting and car
systems. On the electric line to the
Redlands the speed, including stops,
is mile in "a seconds. A new ell
ectric system is being brought in to
Los Angeles, the water being car
ried 200 miles. The taxes are very
reasonable. In the past year
buildings has been built for every
working hour in the year. This
spring there are ten 12-story office
buildings being put up, built of re-
inforced concrete. The population
is 100000 and the area is 81 square
miles. Los Angeles is a great fruit
center, $1,000 carloads of oranges
and $4,000 carloads of lemons being
shipped fro there this year. Last
week fine strawberries were selling
three baskets for ten cents.
The Chamber of Commerce is the
largest in the world, being $4,000
numbers. The hotels in the city can
accommodate 10000 people. A new
business which is thriving now is
thriving now is the planting of en-
calyhtus trees. These trees grow
very quickly getting good growth
in four years. This wood takes a
beautiful polish. DR.. Watson con-
siders this a poor climate for rheu-
mates but good for asthmatics.

COMMITS SUICIDE.
Second Attempt Proved Successful.
II. s. Langeyin Drinks CarbOlic
Acid and Dies.

Henry S. Langevin committed sui
eide on Sunday at his home at So
Main street, Burlington, by taking
carbolic acid, the supposed cause
being diespondency over the loss of
his position in one of the shops last
Friday He is survived by wife and
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Langevin. He had been of a morbid
turn of mind for the past year and
had often threatened to take his
life. About a month ago he was
about to take acid, when his wife
discovered him and threw the bottle
away as he was raising it to his
lips. For the past month he had ap-
peared more cheerful but it is sup
posed that the loss of his position
brought the morbidness back
Langevin took the poison when
alone in the house. He had gone to a
drug store to get two prescriptions
filled for some children living in
the same building. His wife took the
opportunity to call on her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Decatur Francis, who
live in the neighborhood. Lavegin
stopped at the house on his way
back from the store and, handing
her the prescriptions, proceeded
alone to his home. He was discov-
cred there a few minutes later by
two men who happened to step in.
The police were notified and DR..
c. O. Pease and officer Miles were
soon on the scene. Death had oc-
Cured, however, before their arri-
val. Health officer C. r. Dalton
was notified and pronounced death
due to the taking of carbolic acid
Langevin was sober and industrious
and it is thought his desire to take
his life arose from a disordered
brain.
