When the annex to the Brooks library
is completed il might be well for those IN
charge OF the institution TO consider the
matter Of rearranging the various natural
history exhibits. This collection Is not
the property of the library, but belongs to
a defunct organization known as the Brat
tleboro Natural History society. which haS,
held no meetings for number OF years and
so far as anybody knows has no officers
at the present time. The Meddler Is told
that Professor William B. Clark of Johns
HOPKINS university has kindly agreed 70
classify and rearrange the geological col
lection next summer. and certain 1t Is
that no one is better equipped than he TO
do this work accurately and intelligently.
There is opportunity, however, to increase
the value Of other collections, not only
by rearrangng them but by bringing them
more directly to the attention OF library
patrons. If, for example. the collection OF
native birds could be labelled with their
common and scientific names, and certain
specimens prominently displayed at about
the time Of their spring arrival, much
might be accomplished toward stimulating
healthy interest in ornithology. study
that is not only interesting in itself but
valuable as a means for creating greater
knowledge Of the worth of our feathered
! friends

The Meddler does not believe in uphold

is felony, but he is willing to wager a

not be allowed to last through the winter.

The warm weather of the past few days
has destroyed most of the ice which had
formed on the Connecticut river opposite
this town, and those who are hoping for
conditions similar to those which afforded
such excellent skating year ago are not
sorry, The ice which covered the river
last week was rough and full of seams and
ridges, and as long as it lasted there was
little hope of good skating Now, how.
ever. two or three still, cold nights would
put a splendid surface on the water. But
let us all be sure the ice is thick enough
before we venture on it. One accident III Ike
the sad one of a week ago Sunday ought
to be enough to teach extreme caution in
this matter.

BAPTIST DEACON'S GUN
SCARES TRIAL AUDIENCE
Church Official Charged With Card
Playing Flourishes Revolver
During the Hearing.

SAVANNAH, Ga, June 19.-A mad
scramble for windows and doors inter-
rupted the sitting of a jury of elders
at the Clifton Baptist Church. five
miles from here, today, when Deacon
Joseph Smalls. jr., who was on trial
for card playing. drew a revolver and
covered the jury and audience while he
forced them to listen to his defending
argument.
The hearing was going along smooth
ly, and applause shook the building
every time a point was made against
the defendant.
Just before the Jury began the con-
sideration of their verdict Smalls arose
and said he was determined to give his
side of the case. When he drew his
revolver he quickly cleared the house
of all except the scared conference
members. Flourishing his pistol, he
waxed eloquent, and before he knew it
two of his hearers jumped behind him
and pinioned his arms, while others
came to diSarm him.

The rebels claim the town tonight
and while it Is true that they actually
control more territory, the position of
