HIT BY AN AUTO.
Wagon Belonging to John Daley
ofMiil Village emoiished-
Anna aud Mary Daley
SIiqhtly Injured.

A wagon belonging to John Daley of
Mill village and containing his son,
Frank Daley, who with his two sisters,
Anna and Mary, We're returning from
the band concert, was totally wrecked
last night about 10 o'clock, when DR..
Strobell's automobile ran into the rear
wheels, smashing the whole thing into
kindling wood, and throwing all the oc-
cupants into the gutter. The horse ran
away and was afterward captured near
the Daley home in Mill village.
The accident happened about 10
o'clock. Young Daley, with his sisters,
was driving home after the concert
and they were passing some remarks
about the music when the boy turned
around and noticed the machine coming.
He said last night that he turned out to
the right side of the road and when he
turned to look again the machine was
right upon the wagon and in another
minute hit the back end, breaking it
into bits. The girls were thrown into
the side of the road in a sort of marshy
land and thus escaped serious injury.
One had a few scratches on her leg.
The boy slightly injured one shoulder
when he attempted to hang onto the
horse.
DIR. Strobell was answering a sick
call at Mill Village at the time and the
smash occurred near the junction of
High with North Main street. The
machine was running slowly and both
lights were lit.-Rutland Herald

Five-year Wage Agreement in
Effect


The new scale of wages agreed upon
by the granite quarry owners Of Mont
pelier and Barre, which is TO be in force
until March /, 1915, and which has been
signed by representatives. of both sides,
went into effect Monday. About 1000
quarry workers are affected.
A five-year agreement with mini
mum wage of 81 cents an hour are con-
ditions of the new schedule, with an
eight. hour day and weekly pay. Hereto
fore the quarries have always been work
ed under a so called average" bill, while
the cutters and workers in other branch
es of the granite industry have been
under minimum wage bill.
Negotiations have been in progress
ever since the strike was settled in Feb
uary to bring the quarrymen under B.
like agreement with the other allied
trades in the granite business and to
have them adopt bill of prices that
shall expire at the same time as does
that of the cutters and black-smiths.
The agreement that has just gone into
effect accomplishes this.

DR.. DAY DEGREES AUTOS.
Much of Country's Productive Cap
ital Absorbed, He Says.

Syracuse, June s. - There are so
many young men coursing about the
country in automobiles, and their pleas
ure absorbs such large share of the
productive capital of the country, that
Chancellor James R. Day believes it is
becoming question if the automobile
is not curse to the country.
The chancellor was speaking to the
graduating class of Syracuse University
today on self-sacrifice and self-denial,
and he chose the automobile as broad
and apparent illustration" of luxury
that too often is not sacrificed.
Young mechanics and clerks and bust
ness men," he said, who need all of
homes by the thousand and losing their
positions often by their infatuation with
this form of pleasure.
at is said that about $500, 900, 900 is
invested in the automobile trade, and
this enormous capital is non-productive,
that is, it adds comparatively nothing to
the wealth of the people, but, on the
contrary, absorbs it. 1t means 80 per
cent of wasted money and wasted time.
A certain per cent returns in business
uses and wholesome rest and recreation.
81 know the criticism that will be sure
to come because of what will be called
an attack on great industry, but ad-
dress myself to the abuse of self-in-
diligence in a good thing. | emphasize
self-denal. "
Lack of self-denial is accountable, the
chancellor believes, for lower marriage
rate. "If you want to know" he said,
why men marry less than of old, per-
haps the secret is in the false whim of
supporting wife. He cannot afford to
support wife, the bachelor says. No
woman ought to consent to be such a
wife. She ought to say: Il am not
seeking or conserving to be supported.
There will be two of us. If l cannot
earn as much as you, can save more.
We will plan together. "
''The greatest woman is the woman
who brings to man a home. She is
greater than the suffragette or the fe-
male temperance lecturer.
DIR. Day also declared that more
money was spent on dogs than for
preachers.

Elsewhere in this paper will be

John A. Mead Club of Rutland, which
asserts that Doctor Mead's neighbors

all, the attempt to secure the Cover

neglect the opportunity. If necessary,

the order for the liquor was solicited

a license is contrary to our Statute Law
Mr.. Allen claimed that the contract was
illegal and hence of course could not be

Weston at Rutland County Fair.

One of the greatest attractions at the
Rutland County fair this fall will doubt
less be Edward Payson Weston, the
great American pedestrian, who has al
ready signed contract to appear next
September for two days at least, if not
for more. The feats of this wonderful
old man of 72 are without a parallel in
athletic history, but are so well known
as not to need repeating.
His recent accomplishment in walk
ing from ocean to ocean in 80 days,
from Los Angeles, Calf, to New York
city, at the age of 72 years, is little
short of miraculous. On his I'D birth
day. Weston walked 72 miles. This
picturesque old athlete will be the guest
of the Rutland County Fair association
and will present his lecture entertain
ment several times each day, telling of
his methods of training, his ideas of
walking as a healthy exercise, and other
points about pedestrianism. He will
also conduct walking contests for young
men at the fair, for which prizes will
be awarded by the association.
Immediately after the completion of
his great journey, secretary w. X.
Farnsworth of the fair association,
wrote to Weston in regard to appear
ing in Rutland in September. At that
time, he had not intended appearing in
public exhibitions of any kind, but has
finally consented to do so. The fair as
ISOLATION is the first to secure his SER
vices and it is probable that this is the
only Vermont fair at which Weston will
appear. The secretary is already ne
gotiating with several other extraordi-
nary attractions, and while none have
been booked as yet, excepting Weston
it is safe guess that the fair of 1910
will surpass anything that has gone be-
fore as regards big attractions.

Old lime Snake Remedies.

There was a time when few first
class remedies for really serious mala-
dies did not include some portion of q
snake powdered. Snake broth itself
was sovereign for many ills. The
snake with its tail In its mouth is the
symbol Of eternity, and as by casting
its skin it "renews its youth" 1t has
since the days Of Aesculapius been the
chosen emblem of the medical frater-
nifty, while Mercury's caduceus. with
its wreathed snakes, typical Of peace,
has been used as the badge Of COM
merce. In this same field, however,
the snake possesses an even mightier
significance. for the dollar mark (S) is
but the serpent intwined about the pill
lars of Hercules, as it may be seen
minted on the Spanish peso today.
