posed to sell out to the Dover farmer.
Mr.. Howe asked the travelling artist
what he wanted for his outfit and the
traveller offered to sell for $500 and would
instruct Mr.. Howe how to make pictures.
II looked easy to Mr.. Howe and the deal
was closed. Mr.. Howe became the pro.
prietor and the former owner, who had
promised to remain with the new propri..
etor and instruct him in the mysteries OF
picture making, left town in three days,
. Mr.. Howe found that he could not solve
the mystery OF preparing the mercurial
bath for the old-fashioned daguerreotype
plate. He knew Of man in Brattleboro
who professed to have some knowledge OF
the picture making art and came from
Dover to this place to talk with
him. The Brattleboro artist did not know
any more about the troubles which beset
Mr.. Howe than the latter did and Mr..
Howe decided that he would go to Boston
to learn what he could about the bust
ness in which he had embarked. He VS.
tied the studio OF j. NJ. Black, then the
leading establishment of its kind in Bos-
ton. and came away three or four days
later with sufficient knowledge Of the art
of making pictures to overcome his diff
oulties. Deciding that Wilmington whittier
he had moved from Dover was too small
field for his operations Mr. Howe went
to North Adams but at that time the build
ing Of the Hoosac tunnel brought to that
place an element Of population that did
not appeal to the photographer and he
came to Brattleboro in 1856 purchasing
the ]. w. Lowell studio His son, n. Sher-
man Howe, was associated with. him in
business until 1870 when the latter went
to Chicago where he was in the Fassett,
gallery for year or so. n S. Howe was
in the insurance business in Brattleboro for
about 10 years with Malcom Moody who
was assistant treasurer of the Vermont
Savings bank. Later n. S. Howe went to
Bermuda and managed the Princess until
his death, Feb. %, 1907.
Opening up his studio in Brattleboro
Caleb Howe followed the profession of
photographer until his death in 1895. In
1880 his son, John G. Howe, became asso-
ciated with him and the business was
moved from the studio in Union block
which he opened in 1865, to the quarters
now occupied in the Peoples bank block,
the firm becoming G. l.. Howe & Son. The
present proprietor began work in his faith
ers studio in 1868 Immediately after
graduating from the high school, John G.
Howe as a boy spent many hours drawing
plans of buildings and had an ambition to
become an architect. He had almost made
up his mind to enter the Massachusetts,
Institute of Technology when he entered
his fathers studio as paid employe.

Mellen's Powder House Burned.

Monday afternoon but few people real

Warner j. Spear and Wilbur II. Eie-
thorpe of the store force went to the
scene of the blaze. but by the time
they arrived the structure was well
kindled. Mr.. Spear and Mr.. Elethorpe
broke into the house, and though driven
back at first by the smoke, managed to
bring out number of packages of ex-
plosives. The heat becoming intense
they were obliged to retreat and let a
quantity of dynamite and powder burn.
One key of powder exploded, but as 1T
was in a wooden package no damage
was done. The dynamite burned as
quietly as though it was paraffine. The
cause of the fire is unknown. 1t is be-
lieved to have been the work of hunt.

rabbit was found directly in front of

men the olden days when powder. teams
from the north used to pass through
this town on their way into Massachu-
setts The vehicles loaded with hun
dreds of pounds of black powder were
drawn by six horses The authorities
of Brattleboro would not permit the
powder teams to stop over night in this
village and the drivers used to make

Second Team Beat Grades.

The high school second team defeated
the eighth and ninth grade team Tuesday
afternoon on the island in a much more
interesting contest than the score would
indicate. The grade boys, though out
weighed in the line, put up a plucky scrap
as they were on the defense most of the
time. Several times they took the ball
away from the seconds on downs only to
surrender it by kicking in which Captain
Haskell excelled. Captain. Crosby, got away
over three times. Gibbs's gilt edge tack

after the civil war the art had not de'el'

touched. The sitter wanted 10 see the

out strongly but no attempt was made TO
shade any part OF the portrait OF 10 re-

tive that person might make a choice.
Hut one sitting would be gwen TO any
person. The studio guaranteed is work
and IL was rarely that Il had TO be done
over because OF any imperiection. Dur,
ing the years that Caleb Howe Travelled
about making pictures the wet plate pro
