HENDERSON NOT HELD
IN CONFIDENCE GAME
Burlington Boy Who Married an "Heir-

Bride Must Stand Trial.

Burlington, March 8--News has been
received that no bill has been found
by the grand jury against George Hen
derson, the Burlington boy, who was
recently arrested, with Mrs. Hender-
son, in Chicago on the charge of com
plicity in the confidence game attempt
ed by the woman.
1t would appear that Mrs. Hender-
son, Margarine Helen Wilson, alias
Mabel Kennor, is a very clever and ex-
perienced adventures who successfully
played very original confidence game
on Mr.. Henderson, the newspaper re-
porters, and in fact, everyone she met
until she was confronted with her pre-.
vious police record and her picture in
the rogues' gallery
The woman has been held BY the
grand jury for trial.
The friends of Mr. Henderson in Wi
nooski, Burlington, Chicago and New
York rallied to his support, and are
much gratified TO find that his personal
integrity has been fully sustained. and
are hoping for his reinstatement with
his previous employers.
Mrs. Henderson it will be remembered

ter of the late G. 4. Wilson, president

u, Mr.. Henderson was to come into
possession OF the office Of president OF
the directors Of the Interurban com
pany. He and his bride were to start
their wedding life with a six months
honeymoon tour Of Europe by automo-
bile.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson were arrest

With the approach Of the annual town
meeting there are certain suggestions
that are timely and proper relative to
the business OF the day. One is that
man should not without the best OF
reasons, decline an Office to which the
citizens elect him. Another is that If
he must decline he should not let his
name stand through successive ballot
ings, thus increasing the difficulty Of
securing choice The notion that one
cannot decline an Office until he is elect
ed causes much waste OF time. Still
again, in cases where viva yoce vote
would satisfy the great majority, no
man should call for a ballot who is not
willing TO stand up and be identified.
irresponsible persons on the back seats,
whose own time il Of no account, and
who cali ballot" just for the fun OF
delaying progress, should be promptly
turned down.

PLYMOUTH ROCK AND LEGHoRN.
Superior to Scientific Breeds of Past
Quarter Century, II Is Maintained.

George II Burgott has a letter in the
latest issue Of the Country Gentleman,
in which he defends the Plymouth Rock
and Leghorn hens against writer who
thought other breeds superior. He
writes: It is my purpose TO oppose the
statements OF the writer of the article
Echoes OF the New York Show I
cannot agree in any way with the writ
er, excepting one quotation and that is
that removable disdualifying defects be
removed from the standard That the
barred Plymouth Rock is losing prestige
and the 0rpington gaining it, is a mis-
leading statement.
The color and shape OF 2 bird that
has been produced by scientific methods
IN mating has nothing to do with it's
egg producing or breeding qualities. You
may ask what, then, Is the cause OF the
loss in vitality of the breeding speci-
men. Ny experience of the past 80 years
is that the hen or pullet that is crowded
to her utmost capacity during the win
ter Tor egg production is seldom worth
much as breeding specimen. and the
later eggs in March, April and May are
not the eggs that produce the vigorous,
highclass birds. Ask the breeder OF
cattle, who is producing milk from a
certain animal under the advanced reg
istry method. what the conditions are
OF the offspring OF such an animal. IL
is not so good as that from the animal
producing milk under normal conditions.
These problems have all been worked
out by the poultry breeder. and are be-
ginning to be noticed by the stock
breeder
1t is untrue that the shape Of the
back and the carriage or shape of
1eghorn females tail should iniure her

white Leghorns at New York have never
been excelled in quantity or quality, and
criticism of the winners OF this exhibit
would be without grounds. The beauty
OF these specimens probably has never

BARRE TOWN VOTERS.
Some Recommendation for Tomorrow

TO the voters Of Barre Town: The
18th OF March is drawing near, when you
will be called upon to elect men into
office What you are in March you will
probably be in all the other months Of
the year Prepare for them,
The future is full of hope and prom
Use, but much depends upon the people.
At any and all times, elect good men
into Office. The most important is the
saloon ballot, No doubt the people OF
Barre Town wiz keep their record up.
and keep the saloon door under lock
and key for years to come This is a
grand age to live in, with great oppor-
tunties Young men, make the most
of it. But the doors are fast closing
on all men that drink.
For road commissioner--Mr. Witham
has been elected four times by large
majority, and with the experience Of
those years is better man than ever
he was; would advise the town to freeze
onto him.
For selectman--Mr. Aldrich has served
for several years and has proved a reli-
able and capable official, and no mistake
will be made in returning him to office.
As for the other offices, the citizens
caucus made, as rule, wise selections,
and the voters would do well to stand
by the choice of the caucus

WHAT TO DO WITH THE WELLS.
Suggestions For Protection to Prevent
Typhoid Fever

E
Typhoid Fever
The menace of typhoid fever in eoun-
try districts menace arising from
polluted drinking water-is thorough
II considered in a report b. Myron 7.
Fuller OF the United States geological
survey, in which the various sources
Of pollution are Indicated and sugges-
tions are given for means Of protection.
Typhoid fever rates are usually greater
in the country than in the city. de-
spite the prevailing belief that farms.
isolated as they are from areas Of con
gested population, are Ideally situated
for obtaining pure and wholesome wa.
ter
Failure to protect adequately the wells
in farming districts is given in the sur.
vey's report as the most common rea-
son for their pollution. and ignorance
of the manner in which ground water
cireulates is the cause OF the faulty
protection Chemical analysis is not
rated high by Mr. Fuller as means
Of detecting polluted water, for he as
serts that careful, commonsense in
spection Of the district is usually much
more to the point.
Sources Of pollution in the vicinity
Of well or spring should be noted
wherever possible, aud drinking water
should not be drawn except at a safe
distance from them The distance re-
quired for absolute safety varies great
~ with the character of the rock. For
wells sunk in sandstone, slate and shale.
100 feet may be sufficient; where the
surface stratum is composed of fine
sand, 200 feet should be allowed; ana
where it is limestone or granite, much
greater distances will be necessary.
Water may run polluted in limestone
for miles, so that wells in regions where
limestone makes up the greater part OF
the surface rock should be carefully ex.
amined after rains for mud and float
ing matter, for these are pretty sure
indications Of pollution.
For protecting wells, springs and ois-
terms, Mr.. Fuller advocates, first of all,
wateTtight lining TO keep out surface
water. Wells and springs should al.
WAYS be covered and protected from ami
mails, dust and falling leaves Water
ing troughs should always be located at
q safe distance away, though the Gus
tom prevails in country districts Of
having well aud trough side by side.
