planned.
Burlington, July 10-Sheriff Allen
and States Attorney Shaw were called
to Colchester on Saturday to inves-
tigate a peculiar case. On Friday a
man hunting for eggs in the barn Of
Dean Johnson in Colchester found a
hemlock box containing a skeleton
Drs. Stone and Dalton went up Sat
urday to investigate. The skeleton
was that of a year-old person,
all the bones being present but one,
the hair and teeth being present.
The bones are now at the State Lab
oratory.
1t came out during the 1nvestiga-
ton that Mr.. Johnson had found the
same box containing the same skele-
ton four years ago, called his wife's
attention to it and had again showed
it under the barn floor, thinking that
somebody had placed it there from an
adjoining cemetery.
Further investigation showed that
abou thirty years ago, Frank Con
yeau, who had bought farm near by,
objected to the presence of a certain
grave there and had caused the re-
moval of a body. 1t was also found
that an infant had been buried near
by in the year 1885.

EDIBLE MUSHROOMS.
Puff Ball Is One Of the Best Spcci-
mems of the Family Meadow MnSh-
room Has Also lis Following.


Only few years ago the man who
gathered and ate mushrooms was LOCK-
dangerous cran6 because he might
induce others to indulge in his gag
tronomic risks; but the public taste
or temper has grown more catholic,
and a man may safely admit publicly
that he eats mushrooms without being
regarded as public enemy.
Scientists study the. fungi with no
sense of shame, clubs are formed for
locating the haunts of old varieties and
discovering new ones, as well as to
devise new ways of cooking them,
scientific books and popular books
are printed about them, and mush-
room culture has become recognize
ed occupation. SO one need not feel
ashamed of being interested in mush-
rooms and desiring to learn more
about them. Only one kind can be
propagated with any considerable
success, and that is not as desirable
as some of the varieties that grow
wild. The finest flavor of the fungi
is lost in the process of canning
Some articles lose more than others
in that process, and those of delicate
flavor suffer most. So il any one is
to have the full enjoyment of eating
mushrooms, he must gather the wild
ones, instead of relying on the tin OF
the mushroom bed.

FREAK OF nature
FLOODS VALLEY
Lake Inside Alaska Glacier
Breaks Loose and Sweeps
Miners Cabins Away

CORDOVA, Alaska, Nov. 25.-A dis
astrous flood, caused by the loosening
Of the waters of an internal lake in
Bering glacier, swept the Bering river
valley today, devastating a large sec
ton of the country southwest of the
great ice field Many miners cabins
were swept away and grave fears are
entertained for the lives of the occu-
pants.
Icebergs of gigantic size were torn
loose from the glacier and dumped
into the river. Swept before the huge
rush of water, which caused the Ber-
ing river to rise 10 feet in four hours,
these great masses of ice carried every
thing before them in their rush to the
sea Cabins near the river were car
ried out by the rush of water and then
ground to pieces by the ice.
The roar of the flood and the grind
ing and crashing of the enormous ice
bergs could be heard six miles away.
Grave fears are entertained for the
safety of K. Smith and and H s. Wise,
prospectors who were last seen in the
flooded region.
Searching parties have been ordered
to go over the devastated section.
Bering Glacier is east of Katalla and
is about 80 miles inland from Con-
troller bay Gulf of Alaska. 1t is the
source of the Bering river, which flows
through the famous coal field of that
name.
This is the second peculiar glacial
action of this nature to occur in this
part of Alaska within recent years.
Great damage was done two years ago
when a similar internal lake broke
from Miles glacier. in the Copper river
valley, sweeping away several miles
of newly laid track OF the Copper
River railroad.

MRS. SAGE PLANS
A 'SPOTLESS TOWN
Ideal City Will Be Self-Support-
ing, but Cost Is to Be
Moderate

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-Preliminary
plans of the Russell Sage foundation,
established by Mrs Sage as memorial
to her husband for. the establishment
of a model suburban city, providing
healthfuI and beautiful homes for per-
sons of moderate means, were an
nounced today.
Briefly the project is to utilize a
tract of 412 acres In Forest Hills gar
dens, Long Island, nine miles from New
York city. in laying out a town for
1900 families.
The initial financial expenditure for
the purpose, it is announced, now
amount to s2.25o,Ooo.
Through today's announcement, it is
made plain that the enterprise is not
a charity, but is to be made self sup
porting and is to yield a fair return on
the investment It's purpose is to en-
able persons in moderate circumstances
to own their own homes at minimum
cost but amid. ideal surroundings
The minimum cost of paying for a
home there, it is estimated. will be SIS
a month. including principal and In
terest.
For the present, laboring men whose
wages are small will not benefit direct
ly from Mrs. Sage's enterprise. The
cost Of land in Forest Hills, it is ex-
planned, precludes provision for the
working. class. Intimation that they
will be cared for later, however, is
given in the trustees statement.
Forest Hills gardens is to be made
a real "spotless town as nearly as
money and skill can make 1t. Appli-
cants for homes will have to submit
to examinations as to their character
and antecedents.

Amendments for Tariff

Talk of an extra session has been
ended by the announcement that Taft
intends to submit certain tariff sched-
ules at the approaching short session.
The president has made it plain that
he does not intend to call an extra
session entailing great expense to the
government.
Employees on Capitol hill are jubilant
over this announcement. An extra
session would bring the democrats into
control soon after March 4, and all the
republican employees would at once be
replaced by democrats. Since there
will be no extra session the republic
ans will continue to hold their jobs
until December, 1911.

president today and had a long talk
with him Taft impressed on him the
necessity for real action at the short

keep faith with the country; to fulfill
all the promises of the republican plat
form and then let the public Judge be-
