NoANK
shipyards Make Every Kind of Boat Except the Wherry-No Game Fri day Nisht-various Notes.

Although Noank produces almost every conceivable description of boats in wood there is one class that has escaped the builders art, and that is the wherry, more commonly called the dory. This boat is used principally in connection with deep sea fishing and is carried in numbers by all of the large vessels of the Noank fleet It is operated by two men or more on the shoals or other fishing grounds in time of cod or haIibut fishing, or in the capture of other deep-sea fish, the schooner at such times serving as the base of equipment and storage of the fish. Of the number of wherries used at present or in days gone by not one was built here. The supply is ob- tained almost wholly from Newbury- ingly hold the secret of the model of this particular boat. The wherry is peculiarly constructed and because Of its buoyancv and carving capacity serves its purpose admirably. It ts almost a double ender, the stem be- ing designated by it's keystone shape, the bow coming to a sharp point.
 The boat stands high and cuts in at a good angle to the water line from the gunwale. The craft has been known to weather severe gales when lost from the schooner for days at a time. The wherry is the only boat car- ried by the vessels of the local fleet.

E. PAUL FIVE
Arrested in Leominster on Sensation al charges-PoIice Tales of Deprav- ity.


 E. Paul Five, arrested in Leominster On the charge of abusing female c11il- dren, was formerly a resident in Put nam and is well known here. A Leo- minister press report says in part: The good people of Leominster were Paul F1ye. aged 3S. clerk at the Co., Iumbia hotel. Leominster's sweliest hostelry. had been placed under ar rest and released on bail of $1,000 for his appearance Saturday before Trial Justice H. c. Bascom on charge of abuse of four female children
 According to the police, the tales of alleged depravity and 1ewdness told made against the defendant are In- credible. because of their enormity, and rival those said to. have been committed in Worcester"
 F1ye's arrest has caused a sensation in that section of Massachusetts about Leominster. Tn Putnam it has created a decided surprise. Five was known here as a model young man-exem- plary in fact. That he should be gull ty of the charges against him can barely be believed by his Putnam friends. Tn Leominster the public is divided in belief as to his guilt or in nocence.
 Since leaving Putnam he has been employed in Boston and went to Wor- cester about three years ago, being employed by the Worcester street rail- way company Two years ago he went to Leominister to become clerk at the Columbia house, remaining few months and then resigning. About a year ago Five returned to the clerk ship at the Columbia.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. What Mrs. Robinson Really Said.

Mir. Editor: Tn The Bulletin of Feb- 23d I am quoted as saying s"The women who are prejudiced against the federa- tions are women who are so absorbed in their own little family lot, becoming narrow in their ideas" I did not use the word narrow. I did say that the women who are indifferent to or preJu- diced against the federations were women--often cultured and fine won- en, too-but were so busy in their own corner lot thatt hey thought they had no time to look over into the gardens of their neighbors and enjoy the beau tifu1 roses, vioIets and other lovely ffowers.I object to the word marrow because I believe everyone is narrow in some way or other.

THE FIRST WINDMILLS.

Could Work Only When tho Wind
Blew From a Certain Point.
Windmills are said to have been in

of st. John. who observed them in use
among the SaracenS in the Crusades.
but bow long they had been in ex-
istence before this it is not possible to
ascertain. A water mill was built in
Bohemia in the year us. for an old
chronicler Crntions it. going on to say
that "befoip that time AL the mills In
Bohemia were windmills set upon the
summit Of hills"
For hundreds Of years windmills
were among the most important ad-
jurcts Of industry. yet they hardly
changed from the rude and primitive
design Of earliest days. They were
fixed inSone position. and so could only
be worked when the wind blew from
a certain quarter. while the four sails
boosted no Stats or checking apparatus
of any kind. which must have been
most inconvenient at times.
The first idea Of arranging a mill so
that it could be worked "whene'er the
wind did blow" was that Of lettering
an ordinary mill in the middle of a
pond by means OF ropes. When the
wind shifted the ropes were loosed
and the mill dragged around until the
sails were caught by the wind. and it
was then again tethered as before.
Later on great pole. which was
worked on the principle Of a turntable
was affixed to the mill. Not until 1900
did Holland. the land Of windmills.
introduce movable dome carrying
the sail axle. The dome ran on rollers
and was shifted around by means OF
the pole mentioned above. These an
cient mills were often of massive build
being made Of brick or stone. and lata'

Said "Tree Doctor" Oavey, but
Cats and Crows Are
Killing Birds.
SPOKE HERE LAST NIGHT
AND URGED THAT EVERY MAN IN
THE UNITED STATES BECOME A
TREE MISSIONARY TO CON-
SERVE THEM.

According to John Davey, who lee
tured at the Y. NJ. c. A. last evening
before the Commercial Club and its
guests, every man in the United States
should be tree missionary. BY that
Mr.. Davey means that every one
should save one tree and thereby aid
in the conservation of the forests of
this country.
Mr.. Davey is better known as The
Brother to the Trees" or The Tree
Docto.," and has a nation wide repu-
tation. His lecture was illustrated by
the stereopticon and was one of the
most interesting and practical of the
lectures given by the Commercial
Club. Mr. Davey showed pictures of
trees in winter garb completely COW
cred by English sparrows. The pho
tograph then resembled that of tree
in summer.
THE Tree Doctor" also said that
the crows and cats were not very
friendly toward the conservation of
the forests. The cats kill the birds
and so do the crows and the small
birds are the greatest workers in the
preservation of the trees that we have.
Mr.. Davey said that he knew pet cats
to kill as many as thirty small birds
during the summer. The birds keep
away. thousands OF insects during the
warm months.
Mr.. Davey is the originator OF the
famous policy of cementing crevices in
old trees to keep out moisture and in
