Louis Martelle, aged 13 years, shot
and killed his six year old sister, Beatrice,
at their home in South Wheelock, last

ry Rivers and other companions was
shooting at mark and the child was
near the house picking flowers. She
started to go to>the house and the boy
who was ready to fire told her to stand
still. This she did not do and the bullet
passed through her head tearing out a
portion of her brain. The child lived an
hour and a half after the shooting. DIR.
Fitch OF ST. Johnsbury was called but the
child died before he arrived.
Beatrice was the youngest ola family
of nine children. Her mother, whose
name was Martelle had lived in this Sec
tion until quite recently she married

GOss Garage Opened.
Large Number of People Present.
Speakers Last Evening Made it
Plain That a New Hotel
viii Come Next.

Good weather favored the manage
ment of the c. Fl. Goss Garage yesterday
and hundreds of people took advantage
of the opportunity to inspect St. Johns
bury's magnificent new automobile home.
The hours the building was open made
it possible for the people to visit the
place at their leisure and while there
were no crowds present at any one time
during the day large number of people
came and they came from all parts of
the state as well as this immediate
vicinity.
One of the most significant features of
the occasion was the gathering in the
evening when chairs were placed in the
large storage room on the main floor,
and E. A. Darling of Burke introduced
several gentlemen who made short
speeches. They all spoke in very COM
mandatory terms of the enterprise which
had made such building as this possible
in St. Johnsbury and expressed the be-
lief that this garage was only the fore
runner of a modern hotel for this place
to care for the automobile travel that
these magnificent accommodations and
natural beauty and attraction of St.
Johnsbury and vicinity were sure to
bring. The impression was very forcibly
given that this garage was the beginning
of new era of progress and develop
ment for ST. Johnsbury.

The Climax.

The Climax presented at The Colonial
Wednesday evening was, in the opinion
of many, the best attraction of the
season. 1t was quite out of the ordinary
to find two such pleasing musicians as
those taking the parts of Adelina Won
Hagen, the pupil. and Pietro Go1fanti,
the son of the teacher, at the same time
SO clever and satisfactory in their acting.
Each character was well portrayed,
that of Luigi Golfanti. the teacher, being
exceedingly satisfactory from start to
finish.
The music. which was a vital part of
the performance, was uniquely appro-
pirate, as was particularly 1.-The Song
of the Soul" by Carl Breil. which won
much applause. Miss Swinburn, who
took the part of the pupil. had a very
pleasing high soprano voice, which add
ed to her charming manner and clever
acting, made her a prime favorite
Pietro, the son of the singing teacher.
was ideal in each of his capacities,
which included excellent taccompaniments
and piano solos, besides his splendid
acting.

Bartelmy raised his hand deprecat-
 ingly. Brand, however drew a deep breath and went resolutely on. He spoke to both the girl and the judge. Judith, if at the cost of my life I could spare you this grief you'd do | it gladly. But even that would do no good. You would always despise me for failing when my test came and al- ways despise yourself for having caus- ed me to fail. Can't you see you and I

 Bartelmy saw that he had played his last card It was his highest | trump, but it had failed to win. What Judith could not do he surely, under the existing circumstances, could not
 do. Nolan, the only man who could save him if he would, had gone, he knew not where.
 And it was now press time. All was over. BarteIny took a single step to-
 ward his daughter
 Brand, that story is my obituary y he said in low tones.
 "Oh, no," was the response in sad dened voice. Men like you don't fin ish that way. You'll have about six
 hours, judge, before that story is read by the public
 Judith, too, was ready to admit that her last and culminating effort had l been in vain. Wearied and unstrung, l she raised herself from the fatal form | that was to besmirch the name and ! the father that had been her source of pride She crossed over toward her | father, who stood silent and despair l ingly in the shadow of one Of the lino- type machines.
 "Goodby, Wheeler. 1 am going out of your life forever I am sorry it had 70 end like this-all our plans, all our hopes"-
 that she had spent with Wheeler, 1 building air castles for their future when they would be man and wife, came over her.

 "Go to lun,n, uoys," ordered Brand to the typesetters.
 ''We'll miss the mail," protested Mo Henry.
 'I don't care. Go to lunch"
 The compositors ceased work at the linotypes and, wondering and whisper ing, slowly filed out.
 "Judith," Brand besought her, wont you"-

 "But it is the human thing to do. Oh, forget these ideals. Be just a mana man who 9oves a woman and protects her, You do love me, know, in spite of everything that you've done."
 'tYes, love your he cried fervently.
 "And Wheeler, dear, I've not chang ed," she told him fondly. ''I can see how right you mean to be in what you are trying to do, but in this you are wrong. Whatever my father may have done, his intentions were honest. He had been involved by others and was too late. They, not he, were guilty. It was for their sakes, not his own, that he offered you that money, so you see you are wrong. Why, Wheeler, if you belonged to me and committed a crime I would die to shield you from the penalty"
 Brand answered her quickly.
 That is wrong reasoning"
 'No, no; it is right. That must al- ways be-" she cried. Ut is nke-like law of life. Can't you see that too? I belong to you. Yes, belong to you, and you should shield me. You must feel toward my father as he were your own because he is mine. It's not pos sible that you would do this thing to your own father. Think of him that way-your own father! You'll not re- gret it. I'll make it up to you with all my love for all the rest of life! Wheel CT, say you will do what I ask" She broke down completely and sobbed brokenly, leaning across the form. "Oh, say you will do what I ask!"
 Brand tried to raise her, but she clung to him frenziedly.

 Judith, listen to me-" he said in- spiredly. "I'in not the man who loves you or is loved by you. I've ne right to think of you or of myself. I'm an instrument to an end in the history of great God. Can't you see this thing as I dor"
 'T can't reason. I can't argue. can only feel"
 The judge had drawn a few steps away from the pair during the scene between then. He viewed with cal culating satisfaction the battle that his daughter was waging so valiantly in his behalf, and he had felt that not even the young stoic Brand could re sist this powerful and final appeal of the girl he loved. At his daughter last outcry he drew near to the editor

But now you bring her here in her innocence to re- peat to me your lies. You're degrad- ing her, dragging her down to your own level, just as you did her mother before her. If she lets you go on using her it will be with her eyes open"
 Judith raised her head amazedly.
 What are you saying?" she asked.
 Brand turned to her and then to the judge.
 "Why, he's lied to you just as he's lied all his life. He told you he was trying to shield others. He lied. He never shielded any one but himself.
