SEMINARY GUARANTEED.
Scarlet Fever Discovered, But Some
Students Escaped Before Disease
Was Recognized.

Montpelier Seminary is under
strict quarantine placed over it by
DR.. Lindsay, the Health Officer.
Harold Spaulding, one of the stu
dents, is i'll with scarlet fever, and
the quarantine has been established
over the institution to Tprevsnt the
disease from spreading to the rest
of the city.
Spaulding is substitute on the
football team and Wspt with the team
Friday to Poultney, where they play
ed Troy Conference Academy for the
championship of the State. On the
way back he complained of sore
throat and dizziness.
Monday night q physician was call
ed but the case was not well enough
developed to diagnose properly yester-
day morning however, there was no
doubt left and the physician pro-
nounced the disease to be scarlet
fever.
Health Officer Lindsay was called
in without delay and Immediately
placed the school under quarantine,
but not before large number of the
students had left for home.
The school was to close today for
the Thanksgiving holidays and the
scholars scenting possible complica-
tions over Spaulding's illness, seized
their opportunity and Escaped to their
homes on outgoing trains.
When interviewed by represen-
tative of the Journal DR.. Lindsay
stated that no clue had been found
as to how or where Spaulding con-
tracted the disease, but he thought
there was very little likelihood that il
was caught on the trip to Poultney
as scarlet fever would not be apt to
develop in so short time.
Spaulding is in his room, he said
and everybody he was able to catch
he placed under the ban Every eff.
fort Is being made to protect the rest
of the city from any possible epidem
ic and the escaped scholars are moi
likely to have Caught the disease, fol
most of them who have come in con
tact with Spaulding are now confined
at the Seminary.

Tramped Through the Washington
CIuch

Washington, d. c., Nov 24.-Pres-

streets of Washington this evening
This was unusual for him as his air.
ings have usually been taken on horse
back or in a moor car down along the
river front or in the country here
abouts. 1t was too late to go riding
when President Taft got through with
his work this afternoon, so he de-
cided to take stroll and commanded
Captain Butt, his military aide, for
A companion.
Darkness had set in before they
started from the White House, but
they went by unfrequented streets
eastward to the foot of Capitol Hill
and came back along well lighted
Pennsylvania avenue, reaching the
White House about 7 o'clock. The
snow which fell nearly all day had
ceased, but the weather was raw and
| things were nasty under foot. The
President was not followed by any
secret service guards as he got away
| from the White House without their
| knowledge.

HERE'S A CL|NCHER
FOR COUNTY BONDS
A PROMINENT REPUBLICAN
WANTS CARTER COUNTY'S
RECORDS PROTECTED.

W. II johnson former United

afternoon that he hoped to see the
county bond issue carry. while Mr..
johnson is a republican, he is not
Of that kind which never sees any
good in democratic office holders.

good a board Of county commission

men to spend their money. that
they are a set OF men who have the
capabilty and the honor 70 see that
the county will get a dollars worth
for every dollar that is expended.
In speaking Of the court house
bonds, he said the chief reason for
his fayoring this issue was for the
preservation of the county records.
\ fire with the present court house
will cost the county twice the cost
Of a court house. The abstract pco
pie would have the county absolute
ly at their mercy and II the rec
ords were destroyed. could force the
county to pay them any kind Of price
for a duplicate of the land titles
Mr. Johnson is also enthusiastic
for good roads. He says the saving
TO teams alone will more than pay
the cost of roads. He also ex.
pressed surprise at some of the re-
ports that reach him that the small
farmer who pays but little or no tax
is opposed 10 the issue
This bond issue is the best that
has ever been proposed in the
state Not a cent of the principal
must be paid until after the cXpi.
ration of ten years. Nothing but
the interest will be paid and that
will be am uch less sum than will
be required under direct taxation
if the bond issue is defeated. As
these improvements are permanent,
1t is nothing more than right t..-t
future generations be required "a
pay for them.
Last year the people had fair
sample of roads without bridges.
| Farm products and live stock al
vanced but the farmers could not
get to market. One man who ship
ped from Madill received ten dol
lars more on the head for cattl,
than he would have gotten If ht
had not been able to get his stocl
to the market. Good roads mad,
;S;s man more in this one sal,
than the interest on the bonds
would have cost him in the entir,
run OF the bonds
Land in counties IN the old state
that have good, roads is worth NOR,
than land in counties where II,
